Chapter 400: Minor Modifications to the Plan
Chapter 400: Minor Modifications to the Plan
Given that Yun Zhicui might be in a bit of a hurry, the Star Chariot driver stopped the Star Chariot directly at the entrance of the Shence Mansion.
Then, they awkwardly got out of the car, opened the door for Yunzhi, and then awkwardly returned to the driver's seat.
"Go back now."
Seeing how pitiful he was, Yunzhi waved him away.
The driver, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, quickly sped away.
Fortunately, it didn't start too fast, so it didn't kick up exhaust fumes and leave a cloud of smoke in our faces.
Yunzhi watched the star raft flee as if it were trying to escape.
"Tell everyone in the shipping lane to be careful, lest they get hit."
After saying that, he turned and walked into the Shence Mansion.
As Yun had expected, the three generals were currently in the mansion, discussing the current trends in the universe.
As Yun Zhi entered, the guards of the Shence Prefecture, Yun Qi, immediately saluted him.
He looked around and casually pointed to one of the Cloud Riders:
"You, go and inform the Taibu Si, and tell them to give me the monitoring report of the signal from the Iron Tomb Chariot of the Great Lord of Annihilation."
After thinking for a moment, he added:
"Within half a system hour."
The Cloud Cavalryman froze, immediately raising his standard Cloud Cavalry longsword to his right shoulder in a perfect military salute.
"Yes, True Lord!"
Then, he hurriedly ran out.
Yunzhi could have solved the problem by sending a message, but she felt that was too slow.
We need to give those people from the Tabuan a little sense of urgency.
Fu Xuan isn't here, and he threw in three managers during his last visit to Luofu. I wonder how the Grand Divination Bureau is doing now; it shouldn't be a complete mess.
—It can't be a complete mess either.
In the main hall of the Shence Mansion, a massive chessboard shimmered with a faint blue light.
The three generals had already heard Yun Zhi enter and stopped discussing their affairs.
"Emperor of the Bow and Fate, True Lord."
The three of them bowed and called out at the same time.
Lan sat on Yunzhi's shoulder.
He doesn't seem to care much about his image; so what if he looks like this?
As long as you are strong enough, no one will dare to criticize you.
A stern gaze swept over the three of them, and Yun Zhi nodded slightly:
"I'm glad you're all available."
Although Yunzhi clearly heard them discussing something else when he came in, it didn't stop him from thinking that the three of them were very idle.
General Zhuyuan smiled gently:
"We're just discussing some trivial matters that don't pose a threat to the Immortal Boat Alliance for the time being."
The implication is that they were just discussing "other people's business".
That would be wonderful.
"Since everyone's here, let's have a short meeting. Shence, send a message to Rong Tao and have her come in."
Let's have a closed-door meeting and make more plans regarding Onfaros.
Jing Yuan quickly notified General Rong Tao and Yao Guang, at a speed that was simply unimaginable.
When Yao Guang's distinctive totem patterns appeared, Fei Xiao couldn't help but joke:
"I never expected that General Yao Guang would receive a communication so quickly."
Yao Guang's voice drifted over:
"We dare not disobey the True Lord's order."
Upon hearing this, Zhuyuan couldn't help but laugh:
"Oh dear, what are you saying? Are you implying that we've been neglecting you all along?"
Actually, there was no other meaning. They didn't contact each other much before, since they each had their own affairs and were very busy. When they did contact each other occasionally, it was always for business purposes, and they would soon go their separate ways.
But this time, the person requesting the communication was of such importance that even if it were just a business matter, or even if Yu Que were to appear right in front of Jinmie Huozu, Yao Guang would have to ignore Nanuk and come to answer the phone.
"Elder Yan is joking. So, what is the True Lord's decree?"
The totem has turned upside down, now facing the clouds.
"Rong Tao, I remember the last time you observed the signal from the Iron Tomb was when—"
"The industrial planet Balanza Furnace, located near the Luofu route, has been confirmed to have been defeated."
Rong Tao answered quickly.
Jade Palace truly lives up to its reputation as the Eye of the Alliance; with them around, the Immortal Ship Alliance's navigation routes will no longer be completely in the dark.
Why was the Iron Tomb suddenly mentioned?
The generals present looked at Yunzhi.
Yunzhi sat in the main seat, gently tapping the armrest with one hand:
"Have you investigated the signal source of the Iron Tomb?"
"I've tried, True Lord."
Rong Tao replied:
"Yu Que once operated the Ten Directions Light Reflecting the Dharma Realm to its fullest extent, but it was unable to find the origin of the Iron Tomb. Although it could trace some of its signals, it could never truly find its movement trajectory."
They studied each of the Extinction Lords carefully, but unfortunately, some Extinction Lords were simply impossible to uncover.
The signal from the Iron Tomb... it's less like it went there on its own initiative, and more like it was directly thrown into those worlds by the Annihilation Ancestor.
They rarely appear, but when they do, they cause a bloodbath, and then mysteriously disappear... There's really nothing of value to record.
Meanwhile, the people from Luofu Taibu Si hurriedly gathered Yun Zhi Yao's things as quickly as possible and rushed back with the Yun Qi.
"My Lord, the report you requested..."
The poor clerk from the Tabuan was almost out of breath, but she still...
Yun glanced at her inexplicably, then reached out and took the documents:
"Didn't you say it was halfway through the system? Why are you in such a hurry?"
There was no shortchanging, right?
The employee finally caught his breath and bowed with a smile:
"Although the Jade Palace Immortal Ship suggested that we monitor the chariot signal of the Great Lord of Annihilation's Iron Tomb, ... the destruction brought by the Iron Tomb does not require its own presence. The signal strength we detected is not strong, and it is difficult to obtain accurate information."
Yeah, not surprising.
Yun quickly flipped through the few thin sheets of paper.
The above describes Tabuan's observations, but there are indeed no valuable clues.
Most of the discussions focus on how the Iron Tomb's signals react, but once you start looking at them, you can't find the information anymore.
Yun sighed in disappointment and tossed the report aside.
—When someone in charge opens their mouth, the people below run themselves ragged, and when it finally reaches the boss, the boss might not even be satisfied.
Working people have it so tough.
"Alright, I'll tell you, you take notes."
Yun Zhi spoke.
Then, a loud commotion was heard from Rong Tao's side.
"Please speak, True Lord."
...Although we have entered the technological age, Rong Tao must have taken out the jade tablet to record Yun Zhi's words.
But Yunzhi couldn't help but imagine General Rong Tao sitting on a small chair with paper and pen in his hand.
I think I have a real talent for being a teacher.
"The Great Lord of Annihilation, the Iron Tomb."
Yun organized her thoughts:
"The Imperial Scepter, modified by Rupert II using the abandoned neurons of the [Intellectual] Star God, the Celestial Computer Erudite, was elevated by a glance from the Ancestor of Annihilation. The scepter's number is δ-me13."
The three generals present exchanged glances.
—The scepter is not an unfamiliar term.
These things once plunged the Academy of Broad Knowledge into internal strife and plunged the world into a hell of blood and fire.
The exact number of scepters remains unknown, but most have been damaged.
"True Lord, you said... the Iron Tomb is a 'scepter'?"
General Rong Tao across from her couldn't see her expression, but judging from her tone, it was probably quite impressive.
"Um."
"What's the basis for that?"
Rong Tao nervously continued asking questions.
"That's what Omniscient Deva said."
Yunzhi's answer is very authoritative.
Rong Tao silently wrote it down: "The True Lord Jingfeng Baiyu said that this was said by the Heavenly Lord of Universal Wisdom himself, and there is absolutely no fabrication."
"The next target of the Star Train, Onpharos, is a simulated world that operates on this platform."
Feixiao reacted the fastest:
"So, the next destination of the Star Train... is inside the body of the Annihilation Monarch?"
That's amazing?!

An impromptu piece created after watching the new PV —
The internal group chat of the Great Lord of Annihilation:
Group owner Nanook: The Iron Tomb is about to hatch, who will go to receive it?
Guiji: The walk has stopped, I'll go pick you up.
Xingxiao: The advance is paused. I'll go take over.
Fenfeng: Starburst paused, I'll go take over.
Huanlong: Stop the provocation, I'll take over.
Zhu Wang: Beep beep boop, beep beep boop.
Light Fades: zzz...
Yunzhi: Hey, is Qiuya there? Is Qiuya there?
Return to silence: ?
Xingxiao: ?
foehn:?
Huanlong: ?
"Yunzhi has been kicked out of the group chat by Nanook"
Huanlong: Have you left?
Xingxiao: Our leader is here in person, he should be gone.
Fenfeng: Last time he stabbed me with an arrow...
Huanlong: Keep your voice down, is it something to be proud of?
"Lan joined the group chat by scanning the 'Boshizun' QR code."
Lan: Nanuk, what's your attitude?
Group owner Nanook: Why can't I kick him out?
(Bo Shizun: Do you understand the difference between a scientist and a blond kid?)
Lan: Pull it back!
Group Admin Nanook: Are you serious? Can't you see we're discussing the future of the universe?
Lan: You don't even know how to be a pharmacist, so what are you talking about destruction? Quickly bring him in.
Group Owner Nanook: With a star god like you watching over me, how am I supposed to arrange messengers? Why shouldn't I "destroy" them?
Lan: Didn't you know that your Lord of Annihilation was cosplaying as a pharmacist to freeload?
Group Owner Nanook: ? ? ?
"'Huanlong' has left the group chat"
