Hao Ren had obtained a humongous amount of information during his trip to the Plane of Dreams this time. Whether it was about the Weaves of Destiny or the truth about the G.o.ddess of creation’s ultimate plan, it changed all his prior understandings of the incidents in the Plane of Dreams. With such findings in his hands, Hao Ren did not spend a long time at home after he returned to the Surface World. He quickly sorted out his report and rushed out to see Raven 12345 in the divine realm.

There, he was going to pick up Noobie, whom he had temporarily placed in the custody of the G.o.ddess.

He wondered how the little one was doing in the hands of the neurotic G.o.ddess. Perhaps Raven 12345 was not able to influence Noobie much. After all, Noobie was brainless to the point that even the power of Lockmarton could not affect her one bit.

Entering Raven 12345’s domain by teleportation, Hao Ren found that everything still looked familiar. Raven 12345 had not blown up her own big mansion, while the garden was still filled with lush greenery and nicely trimmed.

Apparently, the G.o.ddess had just rebuilt the house.

Hao Ren followed an arcane servant and came to Raven 12345’s office. Upon entering the mansion, he was sure that it was a newly constructed building; he could not even smell the slightest trace of noodles in here as if the G.o.ddess had not even had her first meal after the reconstruction.

Raven 12345 sat behind her desk as if she was busy at work. She had noticed that Hao Ren did not even talk to her but looking around upon entering her office. “What are you doing here? I heard that you have made a huge discovery in the Plane of Dreams,” Raven 12345 said.

Hao Ren came to his senses and reached into his pocket to take out the MDT before tossing it to Raven 12345. He then found his favorite spot and flung himself into the chair. “See for yourself. The findings are so freaking awesome, and I cannot tell all in a few sentences. By the way, where is Noobie?”

“Is this how you talk to your superior?” Raven 12345 rolled her eyes as she took the MDT from Hao Ren. “Not to mention that I am a true G.o.ddess; show some respect! –Just a moment, I get Noobie out.”

With the snap of her fingers, a small portal appeared over the table. Amid the flas.h.i.+ng light, a little figure lunged out. It was the mini-version of Vivian—Noobie.

The little guy ran in a circle on the table before she finally noticed Hao Ren was there. She stopped and looked at him, and for a while, their eyes met.

“Eeee—” The little guy threw her hands in the air and made a sound. She then ran up to Hao Ren and stretched out her hands and hissed.

Hao Ren was startled, feeling that Noobie seemed to be different since he last saw her a month ago. “What does she mean?” He scratched his head.

Raven 12345 waved her hand without looking up. “She is asking for food. I have not cooked yet.”

Flabbergasted, Hao Ren reached into his dimensional pocket to get some food for Noobie. “Something is not right. I remember she would fire energy bolts at me every time she saw me even if she was hungry. How come she now ‘talk’ nicely?”

Hao Ren’s dimensional pocket had everything in it like a grocery store. Apart from the mission equipment, the daily necessities that everyone in the family needed were in there, just in case he needed them to go on a mission with him. Noobie had no other needs aside from food, so Hao Ren had reserved a s.p.a.ce for storing only raw meat.

He took out a slice of meat, which he had precut, and gave it to Noobie. The little guy jumped for joy and snapped the meat slice. Just as she was about to tuck into the meat slice, Raven 12345 suddenly snorted. “Oy! Have you forgotten something?”

The little guy paused with the meat still in her hands as if she was collecting her thoughts. After a while, Noobie came to her senses. She bent over at Hao Ren. It looked as if a bow, clumsy and almost to the point of lying flat on the ground. But apparently, it was a gesture of saying thank you.

Hao Ren’s expression froze.

He glanced at the mini Vivian, who sat on the table and began to gnaw at the meat slice, struck dumb. “How did you do this? You have tamed the brainless Malevolence?”

“Pff!” Raven 12345 put on a face with an expression that said ‘I am a G and this little thing is nothing to me.'”She is not really brainless. It is just that her mind is a mess, and her soul is distorted. That is why she looks as if she is brainless. Perhaps she is unsalvageable in the hands of others but not me—the G.o.ddess, a true G.o.d! I have come up with a plan to transform her. And this is just the beginning!”

Hao Ren looked at Noobie and then Raven 12345 in disbelief. “Are you not supposed to spend your time saving the world? Here you are busily playing with Noobie. Are you sure it is all right if your believers find out?”

Noobie looked up at Hao Ren and the G.o.ddess while she chewed the meat in her mouth. She seemed to have heard them talking about her, but seeing that they both did not bother her, Noobie lowered her head and continued having her meal.

“Let’s not talk about Noobie now.” Hao Ren steered the conversation away from this trivial topic. “Anyway, thanks for looking after this little guy. You have taught her well.”

Raven 12345 smiled. “Of course, I, the G.o.ddess do nothing by halves. What’s more, it helps me understand the interference of the Mad Lord’s power on the G.o.ddess of creation’s inceptions.”

While speaking, Raven 12345 had already finished reading the report. She paused for a few seconds before smiling spuriously at Hao Ren, who found it creepy. “What does that expression mean? You’re giving me gooseb.u.mps!”

“I cannot help but feel like giving myself a pat on the back for unearthing a talent like you.” Raven 12345 put the MDT on the table and let out a sigh. “You always surprise me every time you come back from a trip. This time, the surprise is more astounding than I have expected. It has solved many mysteries.”

Seeing the look on Raven 12345’s face, Hao Ren finally realized the significance of his findings, which were even more profound than he had first thought. So he asked, “About the G.o.ddess of creation’s self-destruction plan—”

“In the eyes of trained G.o.ds like us, her plan is full of flaws. But considering that she did not even figure out who she was, it was the best a ‘wild deity’ could have ever achieved. I am impressed,” Raven 12345 said. “But now the things are laid bare before me, her plans must not go on. How could the Mad Lord, who did not even understand what a world barrier was, bring down a true G.o.d with him?”

Hao Ren knew this would be Raven 12345’s reaction, and it was not something unexpected. “What should I do with the Creation’s Engine and the Weaves of Destiny?”

“These are the most valuable part of your findings.” Raven 12345 said while casting a little divine spell and the extracted data from the Weaves of Destiny popped up in the air. “The fundamental data of the Weaves of Destiny not only contains the schematic diagram of the network itself but also the basic operating parameters of the Plane of Dreams. With this data, we can even reverse-engineer the Creation’s Engine. The value of this data is beyond imagination!”

Raven 12345 paused as if she was collecting her thoughts. “Well, you made the right decision to let Lemendusa continue a.s.sembling the Creation’s Engine. This thing and the Weaves of Destiny come in handy in my initial plan. They may be rudimentary, but their basic principles are all right. I don’t know if she got it right by accident or what; shall I say, she has the gene of a top student…”

Hao Ren seemed to have heard something that he had not already known. “What?”

“Nothing, I was just babbling.” Raven 12345 shook her head. “All in all, the Weaves of Destiny and the Creation’s Engine are all useful, but we cannot let them operate under the original plan. It needs some modifications. Go home and wait for two days, I have to request something more high-tech from the top, perhaps it will make up for the flaws, including the defective start command, in the original systems.”

Raven 12345 did not elaborate on what she was going to get, but Hao Ren was relieved. Raven 12345 might not have said it clearly, but he knew she had a solution.

Raven 12345 suddenly laughed. “Do you know what is the most useful aspect of the data you have extracted from the Weaves of Destiny?”

“How on earth could I know?” Hao Ren waved his hand.

“They contain the original parameters of the universe of the Plane of Dreams,” Raven 12345 said. She did not mind Hao Ren looking clueless; she was very patient. “These original parameters are the key to self-sustenance of the universe and closely related to the structure of the world’s barrier. Since the Plane of Dreams collided with this universe, the point of impact in the world’s barrier had become the Wall of Reality, and this part of the data was lost. Since we have no idea how the world’s barrier looked like before the collision, we have difficulty dealing with the Wall of Reality. It is like two rooms separated by a wall, in which we want to hack a hole to connect the two rooms. But due to the lack of the structural drawing of the wall, we do not know where the wires and gas pipeline are buried. This makes hacking the wall extremely dangerous. At the most, hacking the ordinary wall will only trip the power or get an electric shock, but hacking the Wall of Reality could cause destruction to both universes. That is why we have to be careful.”

Speaking of this, Hao Ren knew what the stakes were. “The data that I bring can be used to deduce the rules of the Wall of Reality and let us bore a hole in the wall?”

“Not to that extent. We cannot overlook the fact that the Wall of Reality is already fragile even if we could figure out its structure.” Raven 12345 waved her finger in the air. “But with the data, we can at least deduce how the world’s barrier originally looked like and then figure out how to effectively deal with the Wall of Reality by making out how the world’s barrier turned into the Wall of Reality from the beginning.”

Raven 12345 summed up what she said. “In short, we can let you bring something more interesting through it.”
