As Lu Zhiyu took down the super computer that was in front of him, he observed it closely. It was an optical brain, which controlled the entire spaceship and was a representation of the high-end technology of the civilization of Atlantis. Lu Zhiyu urgently needed the information that was stored inside this computer, which was way beyond the imaginations of the earthlings.
When Lu Zhiyu touched the optical brain with his hand, his mythical cells started to penetrate that bio-optic brain, and the structure of the computer started to assimilate into Lu Zhiyu's power. At the same time, the structure on the surface started to change.
Only after a long while did it stop changing. By that time, it had turned from an originally transparent ball to a silver, shining semi-transparent ball. It looked just like the main computer that was in Lu Zhiyu's god kingdom. What's more, it looked like Lu Zhiyu's original body!
"Now, I can call it a bio-optic brain!" Lu Zhiyu exclaimed.
The original bio-optic brain had now been combined with the bio-computer that Lu Zhiyu often, and the combination of the two showed Lu Zhiyu's impressive calculating powers. After the bio-optic brain was successfully reconstructed, Lu Zhiyu took it down.
Lu Zhiyu now knew that this was the greatest gain of this trip to the spaceship. Now, thoughts and ideas that he had been wanting to make realities but had never had the chance to do so flooded his mind.
Lu Zhiyu didn't try to touch the consciousnesses that were remaining inside. This was because if he tried to combine the consciousnesses, it would bring too much trouble to the mythical creature.
After Lu Zhiyu left the spaceship Hope, he immediately went back to his Floating-space City. As Lu Zhiyu was about to enter the main control room of Floating-space City, a great amount of light shone upon him, while scanning him.
The light only allowed Lu Zhiyu entry after confirming his identity. At that moment, the manager of Floating-space City rushed in, a slight panic on her face. But, when he saw that it was Lu Zhiyu, he was relieved and started to relax a little.
"Master! You're back!" he exclaimed.
In Maria's World time, Lu Zhiyu had been gone for a couple of years. However, there were still some issues that Lu Zhiyu had to deal with on earth.
In fact, Lu Zhiyu hadn'texpected to come back here this soon, but his discovery of the spaceship Hope and the civilization of Atlantis had interrupted his original plans.
"Yes, I came back early, " Lu Zhiyu said.
He then reached out his hands and took down the picture that was hanging in the main control room. This picture was the only protective screen that led to the dimensional space, and as such, it was the main access authority of the crystal wall that Lu Zhiyu had created.
However, Lu Zhiyu gradually realized that this picture actually didn't exist, at least to some extent, as nobody except him was able to touch it. They could only look at that picture.
Hence, it seemed to be an object that only existed in the conceptual mind, as physically and material-wise, it didn't actually exist. It was more like an authority that was ingrained in the deeper area of Lu Zhiyu's soul and consciousness. The picture was only an image, a silhouette that had been created.
When Lu Zhiyu came back here, he had brought back a living creature. It was a giant ball that had a diameter of thirty feet. It had instantly attracted Eva's attention, yet the only thing that Eva could observe about it were the terrific consciousness ripples that were inside the ball.
After leaving spaceship Hope, the body of collective consciousnesses that was locked by the force field of the mythical life immediately started to accept the laws in this material world, causing it to begin to wither away. However, the optical computer was still penetrated by Lu Zhiyu's power, so the body of consciousnesses was still deeply locked inside and couldn't go dissipate entirely.
"What is this?" Eva wondered aloud as she moved closer to the bio-optic brain.
"This is a bio-optic brain. This will be the key that enables the crystal wall to take the next step and improve itself, " Lu Zhiyu explained.
He then added, "It'll be a semi-perpetual machine and the perfection system and control system of the crystal wall. As such, it will be the most important key and access authority of the entire crystal wall."
Lu Zhiyu had only come up with the idea of a semi-perpetual machine after he created the Abyss World. The Abyss World was not a normal world, but was more like an upgraded version of the god kingdom, a world that was between the states of illusion and reality.
It was a world that was an extension of matter, soul, and the power of mythical creatures, just like the devil species. The most noticeable characteristic of the Abyss World was that it didn't consume any of Lu Zhiyu's energies, nor did it consume the material of the crystal wall.
Yet, it still kept enlarging and improving itself. To some extent, it was already a perpetual machine, as it didn't consume any of the material energies from the crystal wall, but at the same time, somehow was able to continuously increase in size!
When it came to comparing all of the dimensions and levels, it was not technically a real perpetual machine. This was because it was extracting the power from other dimensions in order to improve itself, and idea that Lu Zhiyu first came up with for a semi-perpetual machine had actually stemmed from that.
If I can create a machine or a facility that can extract energies from the universe in other dimensions, then it'll be a real perpetual machine for this crystal wall! It won't need any energies in this world, yet it can still be operated and create everything in this world! Lu Zhiyu thought.
It will keep extracting energies from the universes of other dimensions, and it'll keep creating even more dimensions in this crystal wall! In this way, it can continuously improve this enormous crystal wall universe!
A semi-perpetual machine was actually a decoy perpetual machine that stole energies from the universes of other dimensions in order to remain operational. In this way, not only could it operate itself, it could also provide endless material energies for Lu Zhiyu to use.
From the perspective of all of the dimensions of myriad universes, it wasn't actually considered to be perpetually functioning. Instead, it was kind of stealing energies from the universes of other dimensions.
Yet, to the crystal wall itself, it was indeed a perpetual machine. That was why it was called semi-perpetual, as it was only perpetual relatively speaking.
This was similar to how Lu Zhiyu used a picture to extract the material energies from the earth universe, yet this time, it would be a real, perfected portal facility, and it would create an eternal portal in the world universe to steal the material energies from the earth universe. Meanwhile, it could avoid the trouble that often resulted from a long period of keeping a portal open so that both sides can stay stable.
Lu Zhiyu approached the bio-optic brain with the picture in his hands, then reached out his hands and saw that the brain was swallowing the picture gradually. All of a sudden, a gleaming light came out of the bio-optic brain, while countless scenes started popping out on the screen.
Scenes from Maria's World, the Zerg world, and the Abyss World suddenly were circulating on the bio-optic brain. These scenes were all showing the histories of those worlds, including the scenes where Lu Zhiyu had created the crystal wall and all of the dimensions, as well as all of the majors in all eras and the heroes that arose from those chaotic periods.
Lu Zhiyu saw the queen insect, the war of the insect race, and the grand escape. He also saw Ahenaten and himself in the past, fragile and naïve.
He saw himself hiding in the castle of space, testing and editing the genes and creating one creature after another. He also saw how he had become stronger and stronger gradually.
Then, he saw one star god kingdom after another surging into the sky. This scene was followed by one that depicted the changes in the Abyss World and the evolution of the demon race.
After that, lots of data and special symbols kept flooding across the screen. Most of the symbols kept blinking in a weird three-dimensional structure. The information that kept blinking was so vase, Lu Zhiyu felt like his brain was about to explode as he looked at it all.
When the picture finally merged with that bio-optic brain completely, it replaced the original picture and became the true controller of the authority of the universe of the crystal wall. Meanwhile, this bio-optic brain also became a part of Lu Zhiyu's body.
The enormous bio-optic brain floated in the control room of the Floating-space City, and the silver flowing light from the brain soon filled the entire control room. As Lu Zhiyu waved his hands, a hologram of the entire crystal wall appeared in front of him.
Now, the entire crystal wall now was like an empty and hollow structure. There were only two dimensions, Maria's World and the Abyss World, and Lu Zhiyu couldn't even find their locations with his naked eye. Instead, he needed to zoom in so that he could find where they were located in the vast astral world.
At this moment, when Lu Zhiyu touched a location at the edge of the astral world, a trace of light shone down. A dimming light spot immediately started to extend.
This was an embryonic form of a dimensional world that was just born, and it seemed to be extracting the energies from the outside realm. It kept morphing at a very slow speed, which was contrary to how Lu Zhiyu had quickly extracted the energies all at once.
However, the portal was now stabilized, so there wasn't any hidden danger. A stable portal that could flow naturally was exactly what Lu Zhi needed most right now!
"I've succeeded!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with excitement.
Lu Zhiyu saw that the stabilized portal was working, so he knew that his plan for a semi-perpetual machine had succeeded. This bio-optic brain was already successful, having been deeply ingrained into the deep area of the earth universe! It had opened a stable and fixed portal somewhere that even Lu Zhiyu didn't know about and had extracted the energies therein!
