Chapter 1159: The Recovery of Inferno

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

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!

This relocation of Yggdrasil took seven days.

He (she?) had mostly recovered and was able to perform warp-jump with a much faster speed than when he was in a groggy state. But the Scarred Nebula was in deep space, this long journey was still a daunting task for the First Born. After seven days of continuous warp-jump, traveling a distance more than a million light years, Yggdrasil finally was able to sense the Scarred Nebula.

“I have almost exhausted the energy that I have gained earlier.” Blackie was lying listlessly beside the pool under the astrolabe as if she was going to jump into it. “I have to get something to eat.”

“There’s plenty of ‘food’ in the Scarred Nebula,” Hao Ren said. He had had some meaningful interaction with Whitey and Blackie these few days and finally familiarized himself with the new look of Yggdrasil. Right now, he was staring blankly at Blackie. “Except the inhabited planet of Inferno, the entire nebula is filled with energy and non-exploitable interstellar clouds. You can sip as much as you want, and no one is going to stop you.”

Whitey floated up to the astrolabe. What she saw was also projected into the magicked pool below the astrolabe. The spectacular image of the Scarred Nebula, also known as the Wound of the World, appeared in front of their eyes. The nebula had always maintained a delicately dynamic balance with its particle beams and energy storms. The ring-shaped cloud was glowing brightly in space. But the dark scar in the center looked like an endless abyss, it constantly annihilated and created materials and laws of both worlds. Looking at this spectacular scene, Whitey sighed softly, “The collision of two worlds… When Yggdrasil arrived in this world ten thousand years ago, he had ripped the space of this world apart. But it was just a slit and was patched by Mother’s divine power in a short time.”

Blackie looked up from beside the pool, gracelessly waving her hand. “Holy moly, look how big the hole is!”

Perhaps Yggdrasil could never fully recover from his bipolar disorder, a sequela from the corruption.

Under the guidance of the navigation beacons Hao Ren had left behind previously, they quickly found the location of the planet Inferno.

The only life-sustaining planet in the Scarred Nebula, a lonely island in chaos, had put up its new appearance of blue and green, creating a stark contrast with the dark space around it. The sun, at some 1.5 astronomical unit away, was radiating its glorious heat and light nourishing the ancient planet that had just recovered from a cold winter. Hao Ren had first connected the instrument he had left on Inferno before the MDT began to receive data.

“Looks like the development on the planet has been going on smoothly after we have left.” Hao Ren looked at the information that he had just received. “The descendants of the Sun Dynasty have settled in several new cities, and all tribes have reestablished contact.”

When Hao Ren left Inferno, it was still a desolate and primitive planet. After the mining team of the Fairy Void Consortium took down the ugly outer crust, the endless vast steppe and the barren wilderness were the only terrains on the planet. Many of the tribes, original nomads, began to wander in the vast prairie as all ancient cities had been reduced to ruins. Now, a year later, changes on the planet were no way near dramatic, but things were a little different.

To control Toka the First Born, who coexisted with the planet, Hao Ren had built a vast nerve impulse controller on the surface of the planet: Requiem. Now, this ultra-high-tech city had become the holy land for the indigenous inhabitants of the planet. The nomadic tribes had gathered and built settlements in the vicinity of Requiem. At the same time, Hao Ren’s construction units had built several small bases in the key areas, which had also seen settlements popping up in the surroundings.

It was foreseeable that in the future, the development of a circle of stone cities around these high-tech bases would be a norm on Inferno.

The monitor showed the footages of native tribes building new homes, trying out farming, and learning the ancient writings.

Leading and teaching the native tribes were the souls of the ancient Sun Dynasty, whom Hao Ren had brought out from the underground city of Dorasil. These ancient souls followed the ancient vows and Vivian’s orders. Now they were doing their best to restore their civilization.

The dimensional chain of Yggdrasil was hovering over Inferno. The sight of the Nine Worlds could be seen appearing in the fissure between the main material world and the otherworldly dimensions. Looking down at the booming planet below, Galazur sighed. “Looks like you do know something else other than blowing up things.”

Hao Ren was struck dumb.
