"I want to borrow a treasure from the Pope's Hall, something that was once excavated from the Dusk Ruins." Loran Hill stated his request.

"Come with me."

After knowing the purpose of Loran Hill's visit, Binies took the girl to the depths of the Pope's Hall, passed through a passage guarded by special stone statues, opened several secret doors, and a room filled with rare items appeared at the end of the passage.

Under Loranhill's instructions, Bines took out the object that had been covered in dust for a long time, and then the two of them walked out.

After placing this special object, which was heavier than metal of the same volume, on the table, Bines said.

"It's getting late. Take this back and study it slowly. It's been here for years, and the church hasn't been able to find a use for it. Don't be discouraged if your research fails."

After obtaining this mysterious storage device, Loran Hill returned to the small courtyard where he usually lived, which was quieter and more comfortable.

The disc in front of me seems to be a prism cut with extremely precise and standard methods. The lines on it are very small and dense, as if countless circuits converged.

Loran Hill took the disc and called out to the system for identification.

[System identification, please wait....]

[Please input the original sequence's magic power to activate.]

The girl switched the sequence, inputting the original and purified mana, which then spread across the disc along specific patterns, as if walking through a maze.

As magic power was input, the disc gradually unfolded, and twinkling clouds gradually appeared around it.

['Tracing Cloud' No. 43 Retention Site Record]

Familiar yet unfamiliar scenes emerged in Luo Lanxi's mind. She said familiar because she had seen similar scenes in the records of the Tree of Life Sect.

Under the sky illuminated by the rosy glow, metal warships hovered above the sky, reflecting strange colors. Supersonic fighter planes flew through the sky, their hollow wings and flowing magical torrents washing away the stubborn enemies on the earth.

Those huge beasts running on the earth were hundreds of meters tall, spewing pure white torrents from their mouths, sweeping across the sky and constantly attacking the metal warships in the sky.

But all this was in vain. The sky warships linked to each other, forming a grid like a glass barrier, isolating the sky from the earth and easily resisting the pure white torrent.

The supersonic fighters swooped down, dodging various attacks with extreme agility, and then constantly adjusted their attack patterns and magic spells according to the opponent's armor and shields, firing extremely targeted magical streams.

These sharp blue arrows were full of energy. They penetrated the giant beast's body, exploded, and shattered it into charred pieces of flesh.

After dealing with these behemoths on the ground, the warships suspended in the sky shot straight lasers downwards, cutting the earth precisely. Then, with the anti-gravity spell, standard cubes separated from the earth, slowly rose, and then fell aside.

As the blocks in the bottom layer floated up one by one, the artificial structure below was slowly revealed, and even tiny human figures could be seen running and fleeing, but soon, these people from other factions were burned and cleared out by patrolling fighter planes.

After clearing all artificial structures underground, a clean nuclear bomb fell, the flames of the explosion rose, and the base finally disappeared from the earth.

In 3845, the Mechanical Council defeated the Tree of Life Cult and eradicated all 165 of its bases across Earth. From then on, no other organization or faction on Earth could stand up to it, and Earth was unified.

According to reports and analysis from observers across the organization, the Mechanical Council has undergone some reforms after devouring the Primordial Heart faction. This indicates a significant improvement in the combat effectiveness and coordination of its members.

The already dominant 'Mechanical Council' continues to expand its victories across the globe. The 'Deep Sea Alliance' has initiated its wandering plan, preparing to escape this turbulent Earth.

According to analysis by the organization's mastermind, the subspace form of our 'Tracing Cloud' will also be discovered by the technologically advanced 'Mechanical Council' in 20 years.

[In order to prevent the worst-case scenario, the organization has decided to use subspace secret observation to infiltrate the Mechanical Council in the remaining 20 years, obtaining all its information and development models.]

After obtaining data and completing analysis, we will completely replicate the development model of the Mechanical Council, transforming ourselves into a similar form and undergoing convergent evolution. — April 3846

Loran Hill looked at the scenes stored in it. The humans who looked similar to himself finally transformed into completely different forms.

I believe that what defines us is the justice and nobility of our actions, not the color of our skin, our race, our appearance, or even our genetic sequence. — Proposal at the First Meeting of the Human Survival Commission.

Accepting the limitations of the circumstances surrounding one's birth reveals a lack of imagination. —At a meeting of all parties, a representative criticized the Ethics Committee for having too many restrictive regulations.

Limbs are merely extensions of the senses. Why don't we use more efficient artificial creations? — The 'Mechanical Council' refutes the 'Tree of Life Sect'. Natural life doesn't mean perfection, but rather a defective product under limited conditions.

While you're still immersed in so-called love, family, and friendship, I have to remind you that it's nothing more than a psychedelic reaction to hormones in your brain. —The 'Mechanical Council' will discard useless things.

The key to supernatural powers lies in the soul and consciousness. If all human souls were connected, would that mean the birth of a god? — An unrealistic fantasy of a certain councilor.
