Chapter 827: The Prime Force

For lunatic creatures to have an eccentric worldview was understandable, but it was hard to grasp why a PDA was behaving like a lunatic creature. No one knew what happened to this piece of electronic brick when it was rolled out from the factory. It thought that it could become a central computer of the spacecraft but never realized that it would remain a PDA even if it plugged itself into the console and sat there for ten thousand years.

Hao Ren was caught between a rock and a hard place. Since the MDT was insistent, he looked to Nolan. “Would you please just let it be for the time being? Treat it as a pendant hanging on your neck…”

Nolan shot Hao Ren a sideways look. “How do you feel when you have a brick sticking out on your head while you go out shopping?”

Hao Ren thought for a moment. He could not understand the perspective of Nolan as a spaceship right now.

“Maybe you two should talk to each other nicely,” Hao Ren threw his hands up helplessly. “I totally couldn’t understand the power struggle between a spaceship and a PDA.”

Hessiana looked at Hao Ren who was arguing with his spaceship and PDA, dumbfounded. “I don’t think I can understand anyone of you.”

While the MDT and Nolan bickered among themselves, the Petrachelys had lifted to a higher altitude, leaving the turbid and heavy atmosphere into the glowing clouds and finally reaching the cloud top by puncturing a hole in the cloud below. Then, the spacecraft came near to the lower orbit of the planet Inferno.

It was the limit where the spacecraft could rise. If it rose further, the spacecraft would leave the dimension and fell out into the main universe.

Asides from the planet Inferno that glowed in white, the space around it was empty, without any sun, moon or stars, not even a tiny bit of celestial debris. There was a layer of extremely thin gases in space; Inferno had been losing its atmosphere slowly for the past ten thousand years. Hao Ren let Nolan hover the spacecraft near the critical point of the dimension, and then the hatchway of the cargo bay opened.

A group of slender, crewless aerial vehicles that looked like miniature space shuttles came out of the hatchway, flew to the top of the planet Inferno, and hovered at a distance from the atmosphere.

These drones were doing geolocation mapping, outlining the contours of the planet that needed to be preserved, and then waited for Raven 12345’s instruction.

The spacecraft stayed at the critical point for a day and a night before Raven 12345 finally sent a message. “I’ve adjusted the stellar parameters and the surrounding celestial environment. The door will open in ten minutes.”

Dozing off on the flight deck, Hao Ren was woken by the incoming message. He turned on the microphone, broadcast the voice message through the internal broadcasting system, and waited.

He was eager to know how a real goddess was going to transfer a planet from outside the universe to inside the universe.

Everyone gathered on the flight deck noisily, as if it was a market. Nolan turned on the external cameras and panoramic projection so that the entire flight deck would now have a 360-degree view of the universe outside. She then contacted the drones that she released a day ago and sent them navigation signals.

Nothing happened in the first few seconds, but very quickly, a strange halo appearing out of nowhere enveloped the entire planet Inferno and the Petrachelys, which were still hovering over the orbit of the planet. The ‘great gate’ phenomenon that Hao Ren had been expecting did not appear. Instead, he saw an infinite number of stars emerging directly from the ubiquitous light.

After a while of amazement, he began to realize that it was the starlight of the regular universe.

There was no ‘gate’ phenomenon. The merging of two three-dimensional spaces was done in a higher dimension so that in a three-dimensional space, Hao Ren would not see himself passing through a gate. Instead, the destination universe would appear in front of him suddenly.

The ubiquitous radiance only appeared very briefly as the two dimensions merged, the halo effect was just the distortion of the starlight.

As the halo effect went away, stars and nebulae began to emerge, giving the impression that the thin space of the planet Inferno was expanding rapidly into a larger universe. Stars, gaseous clouds, and celestial masses appeared in the once-dark universe. There was a shiny star near to the planet Inferno.

The entire space debris had been successfully ‘placed’ into the surface world, but soon Hao Ren realized that the process was far from complete. The planet Inferno was still stationary relative to the sun. It needed to circle the sun so that it would stay in its orbit, but to do that, it needed a push, a prime force.

Raven 12345 had this covered. A light-blue film appeared around the planet and stopped the space and time of the planet.

An even more jaw-dropping phenomenon happened as an unprecedentedly large Goddess appeared in space.

The powerful silver-haired Goddess appeared next to the planet as if it were a natural thing to do so. The Goddess was more massive than several planets combined, and looking more imposing than the nearby star. It was the first time Hao Ren saw Raven 12345 appeared in this way. She bent down and made a face at the Petrachelys, then turned her head, aimed at Inferno, took two steps back and swung her leg.

The blessing of the Goddess echoed in the universe. “Here you go!”

Then Inferno began to go round the run immediately!

Hao Ren was lost for word. Something came to mind when he finally realized what happened. “The Prime Force. The Prime Force.”

Holy crap! It was the so-called Prime Force! How was he going to tell the people of Inferno that the Goddess kicked them into orbit?

Vivian poked Hao Ren’s arm. “Mr. Landlord, do you still think that my face was too big in demon-god form?”

Hao Ren looked up at Raven 12345, his jaw dropped. He could not see Raven 12345, because all he saw was white—a tiny part of the Goddess’s arm. What happened just now was seen from the perspective of a probe far out in space. He froze for a long while before he realized he needed to call the Goddess. “Good god! Is this how you start a planetary system? Where is the high-tech math engine, gravity correction, kinetic energy and the like?”

“Oh, I do have those things, but I figured that the simpler and cruder method would work the same, as long as I first gave the planet a shield.”

Cold sweat trickled down Hao Ren’s forehead. “It didn’t sound very scientific though,” he said.

Raven 12345 smiled wryly. “That’s okay. No one was looking; it is quiet in this part of the universe.”

Hao Ren turned his head around and glanced at Hessiana and her sidekicks. The vampire trio was still in awe. He hemmed and said, “What have you seen?”

Turcan woke up and traced a cross in the air with his hand; he might be the first vampire history to do that. “Is that the legendary ‘Prime Force’? And God is a female?”

Hao Ren grabbed his hair. “Pretend you’ve seen nothing. It’s kind of hard to explain it.”

He was not sure if he should tell them that the Goddess who was in-charge of this universe was a lunatic, that this universe was a rehabilitation center for some mentally disabled deity.

The ‘space-time-stopping magic’ had dissipated, but an extra layer of protection was still above the atmosphere. This layer of security was to reduce the impact of sunlight on the planet. After all, the planet had been in a cold and lonely place for ten thousand years. It would be a disaster by heating the planet suddenly. Raven 12345 transformed back to her usual size and appeared next to Hao Ren in a flash of light.

“Hey, how are you feeling?” The Goddess smacked Hao Ren on the shoulder.

Hao Ren drew his lips back and rubbed his arm. “Spectacular!” he replied.

“I could help you in person in the surface world.” Raven 12345 guffawed. “However, it’s not enough to move the planet here. You need to let the planet live in a new environment; it’s a delicate job. Do you have any plans?”

Hao Ren immediately told her his plan, including controlling the First Born to build a new ecosystem and hiring Fairy Mining Conglomerate to rip apart the upper crust. Raven 12345 kept nodding as she listened with a satisfied look on her face. “Well, you are more mature than before. I was thinking of helping to transform the planet for you if you don’t know how.”

Hao Ren immediately looked at her with anticipation.

Raven 12345 smiled and said, “But since you already have a plan, then I shall not worry about you.”

Hao Ren’s heart sank.
