When various forces intertwined with each other, some kind of effect seemed to be produced, and the surrounding environment began to change.
The inky black sea water turned into land, and the bodies of the fleeing clones began to shrink rapidly, and various things on their bodies began to transform into plants.
Charles, the central computer, and the bodies of Shanshan and Lily began to stick to each other in the light. Their memories began to be connected, and their powers began to replace each other.
Just as the final moment was approaching, a voice rang in everyone's ears. "IakSathath"
This special whisper was the first time Charles heard it, and he didn't know what it meant.
Although he didn't know, the central computer knew. Everything he was thinking at this moment was sensed by others.
"Oh no!! 004 is attracted by the overflowing energy! We must immediately activate the Final Spark Plan at all sites!!"
004. Charles didn’t know what this thing was, but he knew that something ranked so high was definitely not to be trifled with.
As his mind moved, his and Shanshan's power was mobilized instantly. Except for himself and the central computer, everyone else was instantly kicked out of the sticky state and was directly teleported away from the sea of fog.
The whispering in his ears became louder and louder. Charles felt that every organ in his body began to tremble. All the organs that could make sounds began to recite involuntarily.
Charles was also preparing to leave, but the central computer obviously wouldn't let him do that. Without help from others, it was obvious that Charles would be at a disadvantage in the confrontation.
When he finally broke free from the control of the central computer, he found that he could no longer teleport by his own ability.
The deformed flesh and blood on his body quickly shrank back and slowly returned to its human form.
"NAFL'FTHAGN!!!" Suddenly a loud explosion sounded beside Charles' ear, and blood flowed out from all his orifices.
Some scattered will tried to occupy his mind, but as Charles activated the power of the crystal heart, the effect was slightly better, and at least he could stand up.
Charles looked around and found that the remaining GK Council members had jumped onto the central computer and were preparing to leave.
Charles couldn't leave, and they couldn't leave either. Before the god Paid's huge body could move, the entire body began to collapse.
His broken god body is nothing in front of 004.
The GK Parliament followed the huge translucent head and landed not far from Charles again.
"It's no use. 004 has entered the sea of fog. We can't escape. Not only us, but our colleagues at other stations can't escape either!! We will face a VE doomsday scenario." The central computer said to the other members of the GK Council with an extremely serious expression.
"Am I going to die with them?" Charles thought to himself. For some reason, he had no fear at all when facing death.
Faced with such an outcome, the always rational K9 was the first to collapse. He knelt on the ground, pounded the ground with his sharp bird claws, and roared hoarsely: "I can't accept this!! We have made so many preparations!! In the end, it's nothing in front of 004!!"
Charles chuckled, attracting all eyes. K9 came to him in an instant, grabbed his neck and lifted him up, his voice filled with endless anger. "This is all because of you! You don't know what you are doing!!"
T6 slowly walked over and looked at him with those dozen spider eyes. "Charles, but in the end you failed to protect yourself. You will also face destruction along with us."
Charles raised his right hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and the corner of his mouth slightly raised. "It doesn't matter, at least after you disappeared, my lover, my daughter, and my crew are all safe."
I don’t know why, but when I thought of this, Charles felt inexplicably good, and the stone pressing on his heart finally disappeared.
T6 shook his head slightly. "Safe? Do you really think they are safe? 004 can easily destroy us, and other gods in single digits can do the same. There is no safety in Earthsea. Without the Foundation, humans will lose their only chance to deal with gods. The future of mankind is bleak."
As the strange sound grew louder, the smile on Charles' face gradually disappeared, but soon reappeared on his face. "I probably won't live to see that day, and it's better than you using my family as experiments."
K9 threw Charles to the ground fiercely and walked towards his companions. The central computer seemed to be about to announce something.
After falling on the uneven optical fiber, Charles had no intention of getting up again. He looked up at the ruins of SITE6 above. The entire underwater base was torn apart, and accompanied by increasingly intense tremors, all kinds of things kept falling from all around.
Charles's keen hearing allowed him to hear what they were saying next to him. "Everyone, we may still have a chance to turn the tables. I can sacrifice my power and send someone out, someone who can rebuild the foundation."
"Alone? It shouldn't be a problem if she's alone, right? According to Anna's personality, she can handle it easily." Charles, who felt a little worried, immediately felt relieved when he thought of this.
The GK council members were discussing fiercely, trying to find the most suitable person, but Charles was not ready to listen anymore. Amid the increasingly intense whispers in his ears, he recalled everything that happened when he came to Earthsea.
Pictures flashed through his mind, and as he recalled the joys and sorrows he had experienced in this place, Charles showed a calm smile on his face.
"Generally speaking, if I'm dead now, can I travel back in time? And when I open my eyes later, I will find myself still lying in my single bedroom?" Charles ignored all his fantasies and quietly waited for his own ending.
But when he came to his senses, he found that the monsters from the GK Council surrounded him and looked at him with complicated expressions.
"What? You want to send me off first? Why waste so much time? Let's go together later. It just so happens that I have a companion on the road to the underworld. Of course, if there really is a road to the underworld." Charles crossed his legs, put his hands behind his ears, and talked nonsense.
The translucent central computer floated over him and shook its head slightly. "No, we calculated the probability. No matter who we send out, the success rate is too low, so we decided to send you out."
Charles almost thought he had heard it wrong. "What?! I destroyed the foundation, and you're going to give me the only chance of survival?!"
"We hate you, but the foundation's principle is to do everything for humanity. Personal hatred is not worth mentioning in front of this."
"We have done a psychological profile on you. We know you will accept it. The torch of the previous generation of the Foundation has been passed to us. We are about to follow in their footsteps, so it is time for someone to take over now."
Tomorrow should be the last chapter of this volume.
