Chapter 1831: 508 Super Enhancement and Supreme Sage_4
These elements were endlessly poured into the central space.
This not only caused the region in the middle to continuously expand, but also solidified its material layer to an incredibly indestructible state.
Matthew had previously thought that the most rigid natural material was the Cosmic Base Rock.
Yet, when he arrived inside the Compatible Wormhole,
he realized he had been utterly mistaken.
Every single substance in the wormhole world possessed a texture comparable to that of the Cosmic Base Rock!
At the edge of the wormhole,
Matthew saw a vast number of Demiplanes, other universes!
The number of these worlds was quite astonishing, easily surpassing five hundred!
Affected by the wormhole's gravitational attraction, they rotated around the Compatible Wormhole in a very special anchoring structure.
Matthew guessed,
these worlds were probably those to which the Machinists projected souls through their soul mapping devices, as Margaret had mentioned before!
After disembarking,
Martin swiftly led Matthew through the area where high-level Machinists resided, toward the secluded Wise Man District.
There were five towers in the Wise Man District, symbolizing the five beloved Machinists most adored by the Cyberdragon masses.
They were recognized as sages and were bestowed with different sage titles.
Among them, the most prestigious was the owner of the Tower of No Illusion, "Granny Bono."
She was also crowned by the Machinists with the title of "Supreme Sage."
Matthew faintly remembered,
The Butterfly had introduced itself as the honorary chief of the Tower of No Illusion, indicating it also had a deep relationship with this Supreme Sage.
"Granny has been waiting for you."
"Just go in."
Under Martin's guidance,
Matthew entered the grand doorway of the Tower of No Illusion alone.
Guided by a golem that resembled a crab,
he boarded the magic elevator, ascending directly to the top of the Tower of No Illusion.
There was a massive Star Chart.
It displayed the Compatible Wormhole and the orbital paths of numerous surrounding worlds!
"This Star Chart was initially built with the help of a Great Star Mage from Su country."
"When the Star Chart first landed, Su country was at its peak of prosperity. The Emperor at that time even planned to marshal his troops and flatten the Abyss."
"And now,"
"The Star Chart still observes the Multiverse's various changes for us, while the Eastern Continent, once home to billions of Su souls, has already gone through a cycle of destruction and dormant reincarnation, preparing to enter a stage of universal rebirth..."
An ancient, disagreeable voice came from beside the Star Chart.
It was at that moment,
Matthew suddenly noticed the other party—
It couldn't be helped.
She was too short, emitting no additional presence, and didn't even have the characteristic rust smell of golems, making her hard to spot next to the Star Chart!
"Are you the Supreme Sage?"
Matthew stepeed forward to pay his respects, but did not hide his surprise.
"The renowned Supreme Sage is actually a Fishman. You must be full of questions, right?"
The short Fishman female named Bono chuckled.
Her laughter was also unpleasant to hear.
However, Matthew could feel her kindness and composure.
He respectfully said,
"No one rules that the Supreme Sage cannot be a Fishman."
"While the general public holds stereotypes, believing Fishmen to have low intelligence, as a necromancer who has been misunderstood for many years, I think anything that happens in this world is reasonable."
"Hello, I am Matthew."
Bono's face showed deep appreciation:
"You said it well, at least sparing me the trouble of explaining a lot. No need to clarify many details like when receiving other people, nor to prove my identity and intelligence, hehe..."
Matthew spoke with a smile,
"I think any intelligent person would not do that."
Bono nodded:
"But not everyone in the world is as smart as you."
"I can understand their existence."
"But I prefer someone like you..."
She did not hide her appreciation for Matthew, which left him somewhat flattered.
"Since, exceptionally, I do not need to elaborate how I transformed from an ignorant Deep Sea Fisherman into the Supreme Sage of the Cyberdragon..."
"Let's get straight to the point."
Bono continued with his grating voice:
"You should know that the Cyberdragon's purpose is to observe and then protect."
"We guard this universe without disrupting the world's balance as much as possible while also exploring other universes."
"This is the limit of what outsiders can understand."
"But what I need to explain to you is, for the Cyberdragon, observing is more important than protection."
"Observing this universe and the surrounding ones is the greatest, even the only reason for the existence of the Cyberdragon organization!"
Matthew murmured:
"So, what is the significance of observation itself?"
Bono bluntly said:
"Existence."
"Without observation and recording, existence is meaningless."
"The rise and collapse of a civilization, if not observed by other beings, will eventually be completely extinguished in the endless cosmos, becoming an insignificant ripple in the darkness."
"The mission of the Cyberdragon is to select the most cutting-edge talents from various professions and groups, entrust them with the task of observing, and then pass it down from generation to generation."
"As for the Machinist... the fact that this profession could shine so brightly within the Cyberdragon was entirely accidental."
Speaking of which,
Bono cut to the chase:
"This time, I invited you here to formally invite you to become a member of the external Observer team."
"Your task is to observe this universe and its surroundings from your own perspective and record it through various means."
"It is a very long process."
"But trust me, you will reap many benefits during this process that others can't reach."
"You will also become a member of the Cyberdragon core team."
"To put it more mundanely..."
"You can receive a substantial reward for this part-time commission, and subsequent observation records can be exchanged for a continuous stream of income."
"What do you think?"
Matthew asked with doubt:
"Just like that, I'm in?"
"No assessment or anything?"
Bono smiled:
"You may be unfamiliar with us, but we are already very familiar with you."
"As for the assessment, it actually began a long time ago..."
"Remember that Robin?"
"It's not just a source of information for the World's Calamity; it's also our eye."
"After experiencing many events, especially the Ascension incident and the recent Golden Ring incident, we unanimously determined that you have the virtue required to become an Observer."
"It's not so much about allowing you to join."
"Rather, it's an honor for both the Cyberdragon and the Observers to have the opportunity to collaborate with you."
These words were quite pleasing to Matthew.
But he was naturally cautious.
He would not make any promises lightly without a deeper understanding of the Observers and the Cyberdragon.
So he quietly changed the subject:
"So this wormhole and that peculiar plane structure are your channels for observing other universes?"
Bono nodded:
"We usually refer to the worlds surrounding the wormholes as different 'Subdomains'."
"The Blood-Drinking Mountain that you visited earlier has now also become one of the Compatible Wormhole's Subdomains."
"A plentiful number of Subdomains can provide better stability for the Compatible Wormhole."
"While observing, we are also striving to explore and develop these Subdomains, although of the 614 Subdomains, we have explored less than a tenth..."
She had not finished speaking.
Suddenly, the Star Chart sounded an alarm:
"There is an anomalous soul intrusion in the Subdomain!"
