It was not known if it was Hao Ren’s problem or the world’s. Those he knew always developed some strange twist somewhere in the storyline. For example, the previously horrifying underground cave had turned into the Temple of Life; Yggdrasil, the World Tree had somehow become Yggdrasil the Black and White. Although he knew that this black and white transformation was only for aesthetic purposes without any change of substance, Hao Ren still felt it astounding.
Thinking carefully, the strange tendency seemed to have only started after he met Raven 12345, who was known for her eccentricity. Since then, the world in Hao Ren’s eyes began to go the way of the neurotic. But only because she was a true goddess that the universe was mimicking her quality.
Glancing at Blackie who was crawling on the ground babbling “Let me take another sip,” Hao Ren knew that original version of Yggdrasil would not be coming back anytime soon. He turned to look at the seemingly more normal Whitey. “Your new home will be in the Scarred Nebula, which you should already know. Can you withstand such long-distance migration?” Hao Ren asked.
“Mother gave us this body so that we can cross the barrier between two worlds.” Whitey smiled and flew up to the astrolabe. “She has already foreseen the problems we would encounter in the otherworldly dimensions. Yggdrasil is not afraid of challenges.”
The astrolabe was charged with energy. As it floated in the air and shone brightly, the pool below began to shimmer and followed by a red shadow emerging from the water, which showed the reflection of the cosmo.
The next moment, the suspended sphere of the astrolabe suddenly expanded and turned into an illusory image, covering the entire hall in an instant. Images of stars and celestial bodies appeared all around, giving the impression of being in space.
“Wow—” Wagging her tail, Lily exclaimed in awe. “Mr. Landlord! This looks even more awesome than the navigation system onboard the Petrachelys!”
Equally shocked was Hao Ren, who looked curiously at the celestial images floating around him. He knew this was a star chart. “A navigation instrument? I thought the First Borns did not use this thing, which was more like a high-tech gadget.”
“No, we really don’t need this tool,” Whitey said, shaking her head. “Yggdrasil’s been traveling in space without any aids. This temple and the astrolabe, which project the images in our minds, are for you. It gives you a better picture and direction. But for us, navigation in the universe does not require any navigational astrolabes.”
“It is so much more convenient with this. At first, I was still scratching my head, trying to figure out how to translate our star chart for you.” Feeling relieved, Hao Ren took out the MDT. “Let’s compare the flight paths.”
The MDT immediately ran a comparison of the star chart around them with the officially recorded version in its memory. “Well… looks like Yggdrasil has a limited range of perceptions of deep-space celestial bodies; the Scarred Nebula is not on this chart. Let’s move in this direction, then we will adjust the direction.”
The dying star of Chattar, still emitted its last bit of light and heat, was quickly demising especially after Yggdrasil continuously extracted its energy. It had declined to become a dark celestial body with only some dark-red spots was visible near the equator.
Next to Chattar, Yggdrasil was closing the energy conduit he had created.
As the space fissure slowly closed, the scenery of Asgard began to disappear from the universe, and the light stream linking the stars and the otherworldly dimensional rifts was dimming. Ten minutes later, even the last bit of light flow was gone.
The starlight near the Chattar was suddenly distorted as the dimensional chain of Yggdrasil disappeared from this part of the space.
On the same day, all planets and space stations in Chattar Civilization Sphere that could monitor radio signals in space channel in the entire Chalk civilization had received a message. This message had become an unsolved mystery in the private discussion rooms of the monitoring personnel for a long time. The message was:
Let me take another sip!
