"Full-Staff Assessment Report on the Stoneheart Ten", "Possible Plans for Forced Annexation of Fate", "Diamonds", "Oswaldo Schneider"......
What appeared before An Ming was a rather old-fashioned archive room. In fact, when Hua Huo kicked open the door lock, neither of them had expected to see what they saw.
There was a thin layer of dust on the display shelves, and all the files were neatly classified and arranged according to the level of authority and confidentiality, from the F-level "Practical Ways to Spend 10 Million Credit Points in One Hour" to the S-level basic information of candidate board members.
The entire archive room was presented to An Ming without reservation, but after a quick glance around, he still could not find any files with S-level authority or above, not to mention the so-called SSS-level files.
"Theoretical research on the upper limit of mental fluctuations caused by panty patterns... is this possible?" Huo Huo saw many incredible file names in the F-level files, ranging from panties to star gods fighting crickets. It felt like the mental state of the company's employees was also very advanced.
"Time is limited. There must be a way to the real archive room hidden here."
At this time, Silver Wolf's reminder sounded in my ears, "The passage is not even marked on the company's internal network map. What you see is definitely not the real archive room."
The time that Xiaolang Wallpaper can delay the Sky Eye is limited. Although there is Huahuo's spiritual realm for psychological invisibility, with the complete coverage of the Sky Eye system, the real archive room will surely be completely sealed.
"If I were the company, where would I hide the passageway...?"
An Ming stood there and closed his eyes, regarding everything in front of him as false, and the end of the falsehood would be the only way out.
As expected, Huahu opened a file casually, and it was filled with blank papers, followed by rapidly flashing warning lights.
But this is not just a trap, but a path within the trap.
Since there is a path, there is an answer.
Now that I have the answer, then——"Open!"
An Ming opened his eyes, and the ripples of the spiritual words spread to the entire archive room. The next moment, before the two could react, the silver-gray alloy ground under their feet instantly turned into void through quantum fiction.
The sound of violent wind passed by my ears, and at the same time, the sound of alarms became increasingly distant.
An Ming realized after a second that they were falling at high speed. He quickly adjusted his posture in mid-air and hugged the free-falling Hua Huo in his arms.
"Where on earth is this place...?"
The golden data stream that kept flowing upwards was reflected in Hanabi's beautiful eyes, flowing back and forth like a waterfall in the opposite direction.
When leaving the small square where you initially fell, the surroundings were instantly lit up by countless bright beams of light pointing upwards, and what came into view was an unimaginable huge underground space.
Here... is the real underground area of the Interstellar Peace Company.
Countless golden rays condense into a brilliant torrent of gold, becoming the "cornerstone" supporting the company.
So grand and so shocking.
As the falling speed increased, An Ming heard the sound of surging waves, which was the sound of the ocean.
But what appeared before my eyes were countless golden dots swaying, illuminated by the soul...like a sea of stars in the Milky Way.
"I wonder if Lina has forgotten me?"
“I haven’t seen the sea of flowers yet.”
“For the sake of our hometown, we have no choice but to keep moving forward!”
Strange voices rolled out from the sea of souls, and along with the golden light, they flowed towards the Sky Eye Hub high up. Each soul was like a fish living in the sea, swimming tirelessly towards the heights again and again.
"This is... the real company," Hanabi's tone was also mixed with some complicated emotions, "What exactly is the sea?"
The ocean that holds souls, the ocean that houses memories... It is also the [sea] that is part of the end of the universe.
No wonder the company never cares about the life and death of its employees. It turns out that all souls will return to the sea in the end and become part of the company again.
An Ming raised his left hand and slashed down with Wuye, trying to slow down his descent artificially, but when he swung the sword, he felt resistance like the deep sea. It felt like the sword was forcibly suppressed by the weight of the entire ocean.
"The power derived from destiny will also be greatly suppressed," Hua Huo frowned slightly. Even the envoy could not exert his full strength here.
An Ming didn't have much time to think, so he slowly said to himself: "Stop!"
The effect of the Word Spirit was also suppressed, but it also changed from stopping to slowly falling, and in terms of the result, it achieved its goal.
The only footholds that can be seen on the sea are the transparent steps that look like duckweed. From time to time, golden light sways under the crystal-clear steps, rendering them the golden color of the soul.
An Ming carried Hanabi onto the stairs in a princess-like posture, and then placed her on the stairs aside.
If there is a staircase, there must be a road. Hanabi subconsciously wanted to see what the end of the staircase on the sea was. There would be no reason for such a staircase to exist on this sea of souls.
"If the archive room just now was just a trap, then this is where the company's real secrets are hidden?" Huahuo couldn't see any connection between the ocean in front of her and the archive room.
An Ming tapped the earphones and found that the communication with Silver Wolf had been completely disconnected, and the electronic map in front of the eyepiece had been disrupted into a mess of garbled characters.
It seems that any electronic device will fail here, which fundamentally maintains privacy.
Hanabi muttered to herself that there probably wasn't any file on her here, so she might as well keep moving forward to see if there were any other clues.
Just as this thought came to Hua Huo's mind, a golden stream of light swam across the sea, followed the stairs under Hua Huo's feet and landed in the distance, turning into a golden glow that floated on the sea.
[File level: S]
【File Permission: P47】
[File name: Fireworks / Affiliation: Joy / Danger level: A]
Hanabi: “?”
Hua Huo and An Ming were both slightly stunned. They walked along the stairs on the sea to the golden light and saw clear words appearing on the golden light.
The moment Hanabi stretched out her hand to touch the file, her fingers seemed to be separated by an illusory film and unable to make actual contact.
"The danger level is only A?" There was some displeasure in Hanabi's eyes. She didn't expect the company to look down on her so much. It seemed that she had to make a big explosion before leaving this time.
"So the focus is on the degree of danger?"
Through Huo Huo's previous operations, An Ming thought that perhaps the company's real way of storing files is in this sea of souls. Perhaps both electronic and paper files will be damaged over a long period of time, but the souls living in the [sea] will never dissipate.
But when he tried to learn from Hanabi's method to call out the file that belonged to him, Hai did not react at all. However, when he changed his thinking target to Huang Quan, a new golden light immediately appeared not far away.
[File level: SS]
[File Authority: P47]
[File name: Huangquan/Affiliation: Nothingness/Danger level: SS]
The files that Hua Huo could not touch, when touched by An Ming's fingertips, revealed the contents directly in the depths of his mind.
Huang Quan, age unknown, origin unknown, extremely dangerous.
The destiny belongs to nothing, and the power belongs to unknown.
Note: Run.
The contents of the file were unexpectedly concise, or perhaps the information about Huang Quan was already pitifully scarce. The most valuable content in it was just one: the level of danger was extremely high.
If everyone believed these six words, Huang Quan wouldn't have to waste so many secret points.
"Hey, how come you can see?"
From Hanabi's perspective, all she could see was the symbol of protection lighting up on her forehead, and then she stood there as if she had seen something.
"After all, Clipper is the real chairman of the company and should have the highest authority..." An Ming did not expect such a pleasant surprise. Wouldn't that mean he could walk sideways in the Sea of Souls?
I casually opened the file of Fireworks next to me, and this time new content emerged in the depths of my mind:
Hanabi, age unknown, born in Edo planet, highly dangerous.
Your destiny is happy, and your power belongs to the fool. According to intelligence calculations, as long as you do not attract the attention of the fool without authorization, they will not come to have fun with you.
Hanabi is confirmed to be the Joy Envoy, she is keen on finding fun and her fighting style tends to be spiritual.
Note 1: If you want to be a joke, you can give it a try. It is estimated that the possibility of becoming a joke is 3%, and the probability of being shot down is 97%.
Note 2: The source of the information may also be part of the Fool's Fun. The overall credibility of this file is only 30%.
The file on Fireworks here is a little more detailed, but overall it is still close to blind guessing. The real information is indeed pitifully little. As a fool, it is naturally impossible for him to let others know all of his cards.
Thinking of this, An Ming thought about March 7 again. Soon, a new golden light rose in front of him, and a brand new file appeared again:
March 7, age unknown, origin unknown, low risk.
Belongs to the Destiny Guardian, belongs to the Star Train faction, fights with the bow and arrow, and has the ice element as its attribute.
A member of the Nameless Guest, with combat ability rating of E-, auxiliary ability rating of C+, and overall rating of 63.
The file on March 7 is both detailed and concise. The detail is in the scoring, and the conciseness is in the fact that Tianyan does not think it is necessary for this person to enter the archives room.
Even the reading rights for the March 40th archives are only P, and they are placed in the C-level archives.
An Ming was serious and didn't laugh out loud. It was obvious that the information on the company's side had not been updated. However, it should be because the attention on March 7 was extremely low. If it was the real information about Huang Quan, it would probably be updated instantly.
But these are not the SSS files signed by An Ming. An Ming looked towards the end of the Sea of Souls, which was also the direction where the stairs extended.
Judging from the location where the golden glow first appeared, it can be inferred that the higher the authority of the file, the deeper it is located and the longer it takes to surface from the bottom of the sea.
If SSS-level archives really exist, they must be at the end of the sea.
"Let's go."
An Ming called out to Hua Huo who was still studying the souls under the sea, and the two of them followed the direction of the soul flow, heading towards the end of the sea.
The further you go, the more frequently the voice of the soul echoes in your ears.
Only then did An Ming truly understand what kind of souls were left in the sea. They were all obsessions before consciousness dissipated. Countless obsessions lived in this ocean.
That dying obsession makes the souls unable to rest in peace, and they keep tracing back upwards, trying to touch the truth of the past.
There are worries about family, thoughts about loved ones, distant places that have not been visited, and unfulfilled promises. People's obsessions make up this ocean as bright as the Milky Way.
Obsession is like an anchor, which fixes the soul forever on the bottom of the sea. No matter how it flows, it will return to the original sea.
"Are there any words more foul than the ones used by capitalists?" Huo Huo thought about it for a long time but could not come up with an idea. She still underestimated the Interstellar Peace Company, which took human obsession as its cornerstone and created the soul to protect Jin Hui.
Taking the soul and obsession as the cornerstone is much better than simply exploiting the body.
Under the guidance of those souls, the two reached the end of the stairs.
It was a wet beach, but every grain of sand was a tiny speck of light, and only by closing your eyes could you feel the sounds contained in it.
Those are fragments of soul that have turned into sand. Each piece of soul symbolizes an unfulfilled wish. When the soul has been washed away by countless years, it will become fragmented.
A soul that has lost its value is like an obsession that is destined to be unattainable. It is washed along by the sea water to the end of the sea, and after a long time, it accumulates into this star-like beach.
The center of the circular beach suddenly becomes hollow, and the surrounding sea water flows down like a dreamy waterfall, and before reaching the bottom of the sea, it turns into golden light spots like fireflies and rises up.
An Ming saw a mother's reluctance to leave her children, soldiers who were unwilling to let go of their weapons before dying in battle, and lovers who never embraced each other.
So that's it, so that's it...
Use the regrets and unwillingness of the whole world to build a credit point empire spanning the galaxy.
I don’t know if the waves that my toes touch are cold sea water or bitter tears.
An Ming looked at the hollow at the end again. It looked like an entire cylinder had disappeared along with the surrounding sea water and sand.
No one knows what once existed at the end of the sea.
But when An Ming silently recited his own name again, a golden light slowly rose from the center of the void. The golden light seemed to have experienced even more vicissitudes of life, so it became a little dim.
[File level: SSS]
[File permissions: No one is allowed to view]
[File name: An Ming / Affiliation:? / Danger level:? ]
The original purpose of this trip to Pierpoint finally appeared in front of An Ming. This legendary file was not a lie. It was hidden at the end of the sea.
No one even has the authority to unlock the file, not even the board members.
But now is not the time to feel sentimental, as the time for infiltration is tight, not to mention that they don't even know how to evacuate.
After Tianyan solved the problem of Xiaolang's wallpaper, he would soon notice the abnormality of the sea. As the deepest secret of the company, no one is allowed to intrude here.
In fact, this infiltration was too easy, so easy that it made people suspect that someone deliberately wanted him to see all this.
