Chapter 515 Seven fairies form a team, but internal strife occurs before the battle begins.
Hilo's words, like a pebble thrown into a calm lake, stirred ripples in the hearts of all the demons.
Taoyao.
The original fairy.
The name itself represents a near-mythical possibility.
however.
Hilo's next words.
He also personally rejected his own idea.
"However, the possibility is not high..."
Her words echoed in the reception room, but carried an inescapable pessimism.
A heavy silence enveloped everyone once again.
Just then, a calm, emotionless female voice broke the silence.
It's Jasmine.
She stood with her arms crossed, leaning against the wall, her long hair reflecting the indoor light, making her look like the most precise instrument.
"In theory, this is indeed the only known solution that has a high probability of defeating the finality."
Jasmine's words drew everyone's attention.
She calmly presented her analysis, every word based on massive amounts of data and rigorous logic.
"The Primordial Authority, as the starting point of all fairy authority, has an absolute conceptual suppression over the End Authority. If Tao Yao is willing to take action, it will be very easy."
Her words made Hiyori's eyes light up again, even though she had just been feeling a bit discouraged.
However, Jasmine's next words were even crueler than Shiloh's.
"But based on all the intelligence we currently have, and the evidence from previous indirect contacts, this is impossible."
“The beginning and the end, even if they are not allies, are by no means enemies.”
Jasmine's gaze swept over every fairy present.
"Asking Tao Yao to deal with the end is tantamount to asking a system to delete the root algorithm upon which it exists. This is a logical paradox, and in reality, the probability of it happening is infinitely close to zero."
A cold and rational analysis completely shattered all unrealistic fantasies.
Hilo's shoulders slumped slightly, her head was down, and no one could see her expression. Only a whisper, almost like a dream, drifted in the air.
"yes……"
"it's out of the question……"
The atmosphere in the reception room was extremely oppressive.
"cut."
In the corner, Fei Ying, who had been resentful all along, pouted and muttered something under her breath.
"Even without Tao Yao, we can still do it..."
In the midst of this oppressive silence, Violet finally spoke.
She had taken the snow-white fox from the forget-me-not's arms without her noticing, and was gently stroking its soft fur.
"Placing your hopes on uncertainty is the most foolish thing to do."
She stood up, walked to the center of the reception room, and looked around at her companions.
"Everyone."
"We are gathered here today not because we believe in some illusory savior, nor to discuss something impossible."
"We are here because we all have something to protect and an enemy to defeat. This purpose has never changed from beginning to end."
Violet's words resonated deeply, reigniting the flames in everyone's hearts.
"No matter how difficult the road ahead, no matter how powerful our enemies are, they are all our own adversaries."
"Therefore, I hope that in the next action, everyone can temporarily put aside all differences and prejudices and work together."
As soon as she finished speaking, the little fox in her arms, which had been quiet all along, let out two soft "whimpering" sounds, as if to express its agreement.
"Alright, alright, why make it sound so dramatic?"
Principal Xiaobailian clapped her hands, breaking the solemn atmosphere, and her bright eyes regained their shrewdness.
"Since we share the same goal, let's not waste any more time. Let's get started and get this done quickly!"
Her words successfully eased the tense atmosphere considerably.
"Yes."
Jasmine nodded and straightened up from the wall.
"Now that we have reached a consensus, let's set off immediately."
She turned and walked toward the door of the reception room.
"Please follow me."
"The Quantum Judgment Warship has completed its final preparations and is ready to set sail at any time."
Without saying anything more, the group followed Jasmine's footsteps, leaving the reception room and returning to the school square.
The massive, dark silver warship hovered silently in mid-air, exuding a cold, technological feel and an oppressive aura.
The group boarded the warship one by one.
The interior of the warship is far more magnificent and spacious than it appears from the outside. The massive main bridge can accommodate thousands of people without feeling crowded at all.
The 360-degree holographic porthole offers a panoramic view of the sea of clouds and the sky beyond the floating island.
Sakura, Violet, Hilo, Coral...
The seven fairies, along with core members such as Laurel and White Lotus, all gathered here.
This power, capable of overturning the world, now stands quietly atop the warship, awaiting the unknown journey that lies ahead.
Jasmine walked straight to the main control console at the very front of the bridge.
As she approached, countless blue data streams lit up on the screen, and a vast and complex map slowly unfolded before her.
Instead of immediately setting a course, she turned around and focused her gaze on the forget-me-nots in the crowd.
"Forget-me-not."
Jasmine's voice was steady and serious.
"One last confirmation."
"Are you sure that clue you gleaned last time was in the 'City of Time'?"
This question has everyone on edge.
This is crucial to the success or failure of their operation.
I stepped out from the crowd, and her face, which always carried a hint of bewilderment, was now filled with an unprecedented seriousness.
She nodded vigorously.
"I'm sure I can sense that Peach Blossom's mother's presence is near that rift."
"very good."
Upon receiving an affirmative reply, Jasmine immediately turned around and began operating the screen rapidly.
The massive map rapidly zoomed in and out, eventually locking onto a single, flickering point of light amidst countless fragments of the world.
That is the City of Time.
"The City of Time is located in a very special place, surrounded by chaotic rift currents and calamity beasts."
Jasmine pointed to the extremely unstable area on the light screen and calmly analyzed it.
"If we don't want to get lost along the way, we need to plan our route carefully."
Her fingers traced intricate red lines on the light screen, marking the deadly danger zones.
"If anyone has any thoughts, please feel free to share them."
After Jasmine finished speaking, a brief silence fell over the bridge.
All eyes were focused on the complex map that flashed with countless red danger markers.
Just then, Shiloh took a step forward.
She raised her hand and gently drew an extremely winding line on the virtual screen, carefully avoiding all known rift currents and high-density areas of calamity beasts.
“We can take this route.”
Her proposal sounded calm and thoughtful.
"Although it will take more than three times longer, this is the safest route I think is right now, and it can avoid unnecessary accidents to the greatest extent possible."
Jasmine stared at the route that circled almost half the map, the data stream flashing rapidly in her pupils.
"Theoretically speaking, it is indeed the optimal solution. However, the time cost..."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by an impatient voice.
Why make it so complicated?
Sakura strode forward, extended her finger, and drew a straight red line on the light screen, brutally piercing through several red areas marked as "extremely dangerous".
"The shortest distance between two points is a straight line! Why don't we just rush over there? We don't have that much time to keep dodging!"
Her words were full of simplistic and blunt logic, as well as contempt for all difficulties.
If the path Hilo presented was like that of a calm and rational chess player, proceeding step by step, planning carefully before acting.
So, Hiyori's route is so simple and crude that no one would doubt that it is indeed a reckless plan that only she could come up with.
These words caused Shiloh's usually melancholic face to darken completely.
She was about to retort to this guy who didn't use his brain at all.
"All right."
Violet's voice rang out at the right moment. She carried the snow-white fox and walked between the two, separating them from the impending argument.
"Since it was Wu Wang who discovered the clue, she is the only one who has walked that path."
Violet looked around at everyone and offered the most reasonable suggestion.
"Then, shouldn't the route planning be decided by the forget-me-nots?"
Swish.
In an instant, all the fairies on the bridge focused their gazes on the somewhat bewildered girl in the corner of the crowd.
Being watched by so many powerful fairies, Forget-Me-Not instinctively shrank back, appearing somewhat indecisive.
"I...I can do anything."
She spoke softly, sounding somewhat unsure of herself.
"Actually, it doesn't matter which path you take... there's no need to worry about it."
"As long as I can get to the vicinity of the City of Time, that's fine, since I've already left a mark there."
Ultimately, after a heated debate in which neither side could convince the other, and even a hasty vote, the matter was resolved.
Ultimately, the solution proposed by Violet was adopted as a compromise that combined safety and efficiency.
The engines of the quantum judgment warship started silently, and it transformed into a streak of light, rapidly flying into the distance.
The warships were faster than anyone could imagine.
……
About an hour later.
Jasmine's calm voice came from the control panel.
"Here we are."
The view outside the holographic porthole shifted from a stable airspace to a bizarre and chaotic region.
Countless rift gates of varying sizes and shapes, like festering sores in the universe, were scattered haphazardly all around.
Some of them are stable, while others are violently contracting and expanding, occasionally spewing out destructive energy streams.
Chaos, disorder, danger.
This is the coordinate where the City of Time once stood.
However, at this moment, there is no trace of a city to be seen at all.
"Strange! The coordinates are correct."
Jasmine frowned and paced back and forth by the porthole.
"What about the city? Such a big city, it can't just disappear into thin air, can it?"
With her doubts in mind, Jasmine calmly operated the control panel.
"All the detection drones have been deployed, and the scanning range covers a radius of 300 kilometers. No energy signals from any large man-made structures have been detected."
Jasmine zoomed in on the scan results, pointed to the chaotic rift gates, and gave the most likely guess.
"The surrounding spatial structure is extremely unstable, and the energy intensity far exceeds the normal threshold."
"So if it's a disappearance, then there's a high probability that the entire City of Time has been drawn into the Rift."
This analysis made everyone's hearts sink.
Jasmine turned around and looked at the forget-me-nots.
"Now, may I lead the way?"
However, as Forget-Me-Not looked out the window at the chaotic space that was completely unrecognizable, her already pale face became even paler.
"The changes here are too great..."
She unconsciously tightened her grip on the little fox, her words carrying a hint of undisguised panic.
"I...I'm not quite sure which one it is..."
These words instantly extinguished the tension in the bridge.
Hilo suddenly turned his head and stared intently at Forget-Me-Not. For the first time, his beautiful eyes revealed an undisguised sharpness and scrutiny.
Are you sure you're not lying to us?
Her question was cold and direct.
"Is there really a clue about Miss Tao Yao in this place?"
“I would never lie!” Forget-Me-Not immediately replied with certainty, “I did find that place after entering one of the dimensional gates in the City of Time!”
Hearing this answer, Shiloh's glare softened slightly.
She glanced at the dense cracks outside the window and seemed to have made a decision.
"Okay, anyway, the distance is quite close."
"Since we can't find the city, let's open the door here and go in."
This suggestion immediately received strong support from Hiyori.
"Yeah! Why make it so complicated!"
Fei Ying clapped her hands, her face regaining its excited glow.
"Since the clues are inside the rift, why don't we just open a door and rush in!"
She looked around at her companions, filled with pride.
"Are we fairies afraid of getting lost in the Rift? We can walk sideways without fear!"
"Hiyō! There's no need for us to be in such a hurry!"
Violet immediately spoke up to stop her.
"The interior of the Rift is intricate and complex; rushing in recklessly will only waste time. We can set up a temporary base here first, and then, with Forget-Me-Not in hand, search one by one."
Violet's suggestion brought the issue back to square one once again.
Immediately afterwards, the girls on the bridge once again split into several camps due to their diametrically opposed opinions, and a new round of debate began.
Some people support Hizakura's straightforward approach, believing that gathering the power of so many fairies is enough to deal with any danger.
Some people agree with Violet's cautious approach, advocating for a step-by-step approach and prioritizing safety.
Others felt they should trust Jasmine's technology and send out more drones for in-depth investigation.
Arguments rose and fell, no one could convince anyone else, and there were even signs of infighting brewing.
This is also the inevitable result.
Although they are among the world's most elite fighting forces,
But in the end, they were just a group of girls who had temporarily come together because of a common goal.
None of them were a true leader who could command the entire room and make the final decision.
This directly resulted in their actions becoming extremely slow.
