Chapter 1173: The lab (1)

Azief is thinking of all this as he passes more door. They are more and more doors open and he and Qarliya walk even deeper into the area.

They went inside a lift. The lift is shaped like a tube. Azief enters and he saw it is like a normal lift and look at Qarliya

‘Main Lab’ Qarliya said and the button lights up.

[Main Lab] 

a mechanical voice sounded in the lift. 

Azief is prepared to feel the descent but suddenly the lift glows and then he could feel the space and time around him seems to distorts, like he is moving so fast in space and time that he broke out of the space and time restriction and then before he could exclaim in shock, the same mechanical voice sounded again

[Arrived at Main Lab] 

Qarliya smiles as the lift door opens and she floated out from the lift. 

Azief walks outside the lift and saw a large hallway. This time the hallways is not as narrow. It is wide and it is also longer than the previous hallways.

He walks forward and not before long he walks past the hallways and then he exclaimed in shock of the scenery he is seeing right now

As he passes the hallways area, he would come out of a door and he would have stepped into a forest.

This forest is not only large it is also filled with tall trees. 

Some of them reach ninety feet in length and some is even higher 

It gives shade to the artificial sun in the sky. 

Azief the moment he steps out from the hallways and saw the forest, he immediately uses his Divine Sense. 

In just a second the entire area was revealed to him. 

Above, there is a sky. 

But the sky is artificial sky. 

The light comes from an artificial Sun, a Sun that have magical properties. 

The size of the artificial sun is the size of a Ping-Pong ball but it contains condensed energy that is very packed together

The trees have colorful leaves. In the distance he could container like boxes. 

These are like ship containers only that they are sleeker in design and the size is ten times bigger than a normal ship container.

They are on many parts of this forest. 

Qarliya could see the puzzlement in Azief eyes and said

‘This is the main lab’

‘This forest?’

Qarliya nodded

‘To be more accurate, the Main Lab houses all the labs that research and construct technology.’

Azief frowned and then said

‘I felt that the space fluctuation here and the time here seems to feel a bit…weird’

Qarliya nodded and explain 

‘It is in the lab but also at the same time outside of it. Separated by a dimensional wall and time barriers, it is not easy to come here. Each of the container contains a lab. The lab itself is outfitted with space and time technologies. So, don’t think that the size of the container is the true size and scale of the lab. It is only after you enter the container that you could judge how many space they took’

Then Qarliya floated closer to Azief and then pats his shoulder and said

‘I have other things to do. So, I would follow you only until here. You are given permission to go enter any of those labs and learn all that you could. The only thing you could not do is bring anything from here to the outside. If you did, we would think that you have nefarious intention against the goodwill of Orvanians’

Azief was startled at this and then nodded

‘Thank you again for giving me this opportunity to study Orvanians technology’ Azief rarely thank someone after he become Death Monarch. It is always him doing favors to other people and not the other way around

But this time he is truly thankful that the Orvanians is generously sharing some of their technology with him

Of course, this is a carrot dangled by the Orvanians. But Azief is not repulsed by it. Earth, him and the Orvanian have no conflict of interest.

Orvanians is simply seeking allies and trying to somehow seek friends after eons of not participating in anything in the Omniverse.

Even though Azief knows what the Orvanians would give him is not the true core technology of the Orvanians, this would still quickly advance human civilization and would enable human civilization to quickly rise up with less mistake.

And it is also not good to quickly advance human civilization too fast. Any leap of a civilization come after the crystallization of knowledge and other factors.

When it is forced, it could backfire. 

Societal change, economic change, a way of life change, all of this would be affected when a civilization advances but if one advanced to fast, then there is always a risk for things to implode. 

Any rise of civilization to another type of civilization is always preceded with great leap whether that leap is a technological leap or an evolutionary leap.

But in that process, mistakes will be made. By sharing some of the advanced technology that they had, this ensures less mistakes 

But Azief also take care not to take too much. Humanity needs time to digest it and adapt to it. 

Azief express his thanks and Qarliya only nodded

She then said

‘If you want to go back, simply take the lift and inform the operator to send you to the surface. I have also already registered your energy signature in the database. From now on, you could go all over the Lab’

Azief once again thank her

Qarliya then waves her hand and then she dissipated into motes of light. Her presence disappeared from around him.

Azief then look at the vastness of the forest in front of him and think of what he wanted to see. 

He began walking to one of the container. At the same time, his thoughts once again went astray, like he is reminiscing old memories

It is unavoidable. After all he came here to resolve about his guilt and to shoulder the responsibility of what had happened to Earth

Azief had never felt responsible for what happen on Earth before.

Because most of the time, it is not his fault certain thing happened. 

But this time, he could be called the main culprit of why the Multiversal Convergence happens.

He did not want the death of so many people on his conscience. 

He had no problem killing enemies, killing people that he believes deserves to be killed. 

But what wrong, what sin that a person did that they were killed and ripped apart by demons from other worlds?

The world change for the better one might argue. The world is now even more conducive to life and it had directly raise the ceiling of power that one could reach.

Before on Earth prime, there is always the worry that the energy of the world would be used up. 

At least because of the Multiversal Convergence for a few thousand years, barring any unforeseen circumstances, there would be a lot of opportunity for the people of Earth to break through to higher levels after Disk Formation.

Not many people die in the Multiversal Convergence compared to the loss of human life during the Weronian Occupation. 

These are all justification that he could make up. But he felt disgusted trying to justify himself like that.

When he went to the future, he did not know what effect his choice would do. 

he had some ideas that certain instability of the space time barrier would be happening. 

What he couldn’t think of or believing that it could not happen, was the complete collapse of the barrier between worlds, creating a vortex of unstable time and space frequencies that drag all the other parallel universes to Earth.

And if that is not enough it also drag some other star system that is proficient in time-space magic and technology 

Of course, the closest worlds are attracted first. 

Earth two which is one of the first world that Azief had travelled to is connected to Earth Prime. 

And in that Earth Two, it is connected to the Seresian world. 

The last time Azief was on Earth two he was fighting the invasion of the Seresian demons before escaping from that world with Will and returns back to Earth Prime.

But the act of him going back to Earth Prime created a scar in the channels between Earth Prime and Earth Two, a channel that is utilized by the Seresian demons to go to the main world where the Multiversal Convergence was happening

In other words, he might have also contributed in leading the Seresian demon to Earth. And then there is also the attack of the Otherworlders from other parallel dimension. 

There is his Karma in this matter. There are his responsibilities in this and he did not want to wash his hand away from this matter
