Chapter 1063 The Inspector

Chapter 149 Since There Is No News of Yggdrasil Yet

Since there was no news of Yggdrasil for the time being, Mimir continued to serve as his "speaker" in the Athens Sanctuary, while Hao Ren hung up the phone and began to think about some issues.

After hearing Mimir's description of Yggdrasil, Hao Ren thought of many things. The first was what kind of existence this "Yggdrasil" eldest son was, and what state it was in during the age of myths.

Yggdrasil was undoubtedly very powerful. It could pull the Nine Realms through time and space, and even jump from the solar system to millions of light-years away in a few seconds. The power required for this was absolutely astonishing. Even if the "eldest son" used some special means to achieve this miracle, it demonstrated terrifying control. But why didn't it react at all when the demon hunters triggered the Twilight of the Gods?

Mimir's explanation was that Yggdrasil had a special way of thinking, and that the demon hunters' attacks didn't pose much of a threat to the World Tree itself, so the latter didn't consider it something that needed to be taken seriously. However, Mimir also mentioned that when he talked to Yggdrasil in the age of myths, he felt that the other party's mind was chaotic and its thinking was slow—the old giant probably didn't find this strange, after all, he didn't know other "World Trees," but Hao Ren knew that this was obviously abnormal. He knew what a normal eldest son was like. Draumr's thinking was definitely not slow.

"After crossing the Wall of Reality, the eldest son will also be affected by the original sin of divine blood. Yggdrasil doesn't remember the events of the Land of Dreams because of this, and I suspect that its slow thinking is also caused by this," Hao Ren said, stating his guess. "The mental structure of the eldest sons is different from that of mortals. Their memories and thoughts are more closely linked, so damage to their memories will also lead to damage to their thinking ability. I speculate that Yggdrasil should have been in a semi-comatose state throughout the age of myths. Mimir was actually talking to its dreams. A World Tree in this state would naturally not react to the demon hunters' attacks: it was too severely impacted by the original sin of divine blood."

Hao Ren's words were not just speculation. The crystal core research station he left in the Land of Dreams had been continuously studying the physiological structure and mental state of the eldest sons. He had two eldest son specimens to dissect, and Draumr was willing to actively cooperate with various medical examinations, so now Hao Ren had a very deep understanding of this powerful demigod creature known as the "eldest son." He knew the connection between the memory and thinking of this kind of creature, and could roughly predict what state it would be in if the original sin of divine blood had an effect on the eldest son.

He hadn't thought so much before, but after hearing Mimir's description of Yggdrasil and thinking about what happened today, he had some understanding of the "eldest son's" state.

"Now it's obviously awake," Izhaks interjected. "It ran away as soon as we showed up. It reacted very quickly."

Lily scratched her head, a little confused: "How did it suddenly wake up?"

"Because the original sin of divine blood has ended," Hao Ren said with a smile. He thought of something that solved all the questions. "Did you forget? We purified the source of the original sin of divine blood, which is the golden disc sealed by the Ankh-Taros family. After the original sin of divine blood ended, all races were freed from the 'curse.' For mortal races, getting rid of the curse means that innate hostility disappears, and for an eldest son, getting rid of the curse means that their brain starts working properly again."

Now Hao Ren was certain that the original sin of divine blood had very different effects on different races. This difference was not obvious among mortal races. At most, the strength of everyone's innate hostile reactions was different. But among demigod races, the difference was huge: Mimir only lost his memory, but did not develop too much hostility towards other alien races, while Yggdrasil fell into mental chaos, and at the same time did not produce any innate hostility (otherwise it would not have allowed Odin's family to settle down on its "body"). This was the different effect of the original sin of divine blood on them!

The closer a creature is to the goddess, the stronger its resistance to the "hostile influence" in the original sin of divine blood!

Of course, the sirens were an exception: they should be the farthest away from the goddess's bloodline, but because they evolved naturally, they were almost unaffected by innate hostility.

There was no end to the speculation about Yggdrasil. Hao Ren quickly ended the topic, and then everyone in the family went to work on their own things, while he drafted a request for assistance to other inspectors and sent it to the depths of space:

"Unencrypted message-local universe channel, originating from the first galaxy? Kuiper Station, sent without direction to all inspectors within this galaxy. I am investigating an abnormal space system that is disconnected from the main material plane. This abnormal space is related to the Land of Dreams mega-project. Because it may have drifted to other areas of the galaxy, I am now issuing a request for assistance to all inspectors within the galaxy. The search method for this abnormal space is in the attachment. I will attach a resonance signal as a guide. Also: There is a super life form in this abnormal space that can drive hyperspace jumps. It is very cautious and will react unpredictably to all external stimuli. Therefore, I hope that whoever finds it will not approach it easily. If someone searches for it, please maintain a safe observation distance and wait for me to handle it personally. End of message."

After sending this public broadcast, Hao Ren thought for a while and sent another message to all civilization circles in the galaxy: "Unencrypted message-local universe channel, sent to all civilization circles in the first galaxy. Inspector Hao Ren issued ******: Now searching for an abnormal space within the galaxy. I hope everyone will cooperate. The characteristics of the abnormal space are as follows..."

After sending out all kinds of formatted files and letting the data terminal confirm that no files were missing, Hao Ren rubbed his eyes and leaned on the sofa: "This should be okay."

The data terminal floated up and touched Hao Ren's head: "Buddy, how is it? Does it feel good to issue ****** to the entire galaxy in a badass way?"

Hao Ren thought for a while and nodded sincerely: "It feels amazing."

"...Can't you be a little more reserved?"

"Nonsense, you asked me first!"

"Tsk tsk... Anyway, you remember that this kind of message can't be sent casually, at least it has to be like this time, when there's a real emergency."

Hao Ren poked the shell of the data terminal again and again, causing it to somersault in the air: "I know, I know, why are you so naggy..."

In fact, if it was just to search for the whereabouts of the Nine Realms, Hao Ren wouldn't be so active in sending these messages. After all, a bunch of abnormal spaces, although not small in scale, wouldn't be considered a big deal in the entire universe. But the situation was completely different when there was a mature eldest son living in those Nine Realms. The nature of this incident instantly rose to the level of maintaining the balance between the Land of Dreams and the surface world universe. Hao Ren unhesitatingly issued the first large-scale ****** since he became an inspector—even if he had to make the entire galaxy lively, he had to find Yggdrasil as soon as possible!

The inspector's ****** and assistance requests have extremely high priority in the universe channel. These short messages spread almost instantly throughout the galaxy and appeared on the data terminals of various inspectors and on the desks of leaders of various civilization circles. All personnel who were qualified and capable of handling this incident would subsequently receive tasks assigned by their superiors. I don't know how many sets of giant antenna arrays would be activated, and the induction signal that Hao Ren copied from the fragments of Gungnir would echo throughout the galaxy—this would escalate into a vast search operation, but for the various civilizations that had entered the age of the great universe, it was not too much of a burden to spread this search task among them.

After all, even a "border station" like Kuiper Station could undertake search tasks, which was just a matter of scanning around with an antenna. For large space stations, there was never a shortage of antenna equipment with spare power.

But at this time, Hao Ren's attention had shifted to the inspector's internal channel, because the messages he had just sent had attracted a lot of attention from his colleagues. The demigods, who were idle all day long, were chatting enthusiastically on the public channel within a few minutes:

Nature Master-Vandal? Guo Kui: "Damn! What did I just see! Is he going to search for something in this universe?"

Singer of the Stars-Model: "What? Is Bomber Ren eyeing us?"

Star Ji-Avina: "Holy crap, I'm so panicked. This cute girl has to quickly see if there are any explosives around..."

Great Sage-Anthony: "Panic your ass, calm down. I'm checking the data collected from the Single Waste Star. The assistants were scared to death after seeing the message. A little girl even cried—who the hell spread the word 'wherever he goes, it explodes'?"

Holy Light Incarnate-Loken: "Dragon Queen, someone upstairs is looking for you."

Dragon Queen-Galadriel: "...Get lost, I heard Vandal say it first!"

Singer-Tunala: "Guess if Bomber Ren is peeking at the screen right now?"

Wherever He Goes It Explodes-Hao Ren: "..."

Singer-Tunala: "Holy crap, he's really peeking! Goddess, please come and take care of it! Someone is lurking and peeking at the screen to scare people! Boss, stop just cooking noodles!"

System Prompt: Administrator Raven 12345 has activated a five-minute channel-wide mute.

System Prompt: Singer-Tunala has been muted for one day by Administrator Raven 12345.
