Chapter 41 Upgrading to the 3rd Generation Divine Body, Strange Things Happen!
Li Yao sensed the hidden meaning in He Xi's words and his eyes darted around: "Oh? What does the teacher mean?"
He Xi walked up to him, raised her right hand, with only a tiny gap between her thumb and forefinger.
"As my disciple, He Xi, is this all you've got?"
Li Yao thought for a moment, then asked curiously, "If this is considered just a tiny bit, does that mean you've prepared a fourth-generation divine body for me, Teacher?"
He Xi raised her hand and tapped his forehead, smiling gently, "Don't think too much about it, let's focus on getting the third-generation divine body upgraded first."
Li Yao was secretly delighted.
If they haven't denied it, then there's definitely something going on!
However, he didn't aim too high; the most important thing right now was to upgrade his third-generation divine body.
After all, the prerequisite for upgrading to the fourth-generation divine body is having the third-generation divine body.
"Come with me."
He Xi turned and walked deeper into the laboratory, and Li Yao quickly followed.
He Xi finally stopped in front of a silver-white columnar hull. Soft light flowed across the surface of the hull, and the interior was filled with fluid energy, like a glass jar filled with fireflies on a summer night.
She pointed to the cabin door and said to Li Yao, "Xiao Yao, lie down first."
"Wait for my command to start the quantum engine. At that time, the surrounding instruments will work automatically, repeatedly trying to achieve compatibility and adaptation, and finally completing the upgrade."
Li Yao nodded and rolled over to lie down inside.
The cabin was warm and cozy, and the energy fluid washed over his body like a tide, which made him close his eyes comfortably.
He Xi closed the hatch, turned around and opened the secret communication interface, solemnly saying, "Your Majesty, we can begin."
There was a moment of silence on the other end, then Keisha's voice came through: "All preparations complete?"
"Yes, all the equipment is in place, and the laboratory is surrounded by barriers."
He Xi paused for a moment, then said, "But his quantum engine... nobody knows what kind of trouble it will cause this time. Just in case, I suggest that Tiancheng enter a state of combat readiness."
Without hesitation, Keisha replied decisively, "Alright, I'll order the entire city to go on high alert right away. Keep a close eye on things over there, make sure he doesn't dismantle the lab."
He Xi smiled and said, "It's perfect that it's been torn down. Let Xiao Yao buy me a new one."
Keisha teased, "Pipi Xi, are you really willing to part with her?"
"If you can't bear to part with it, just ask your tomboy for it." He Xi said and then hung up the call.
Almost simultaneously, alarms suddenly sounded throughout the entire Mero Heaven.
The angels in the heavenly city simultaneously stopped what they were doing, looked up towards the direction of the royal palace, and their expressions instantly tensed up.
The next second, Queen Keisha's voice resounded throughout every corner of the Heavenly City:
"Close all entrances!"
"Tiancheng is now on Level One combat readiness!"
"All angels, immediately take your battle positions!"
The command was brief, concise, and to the point, without a single wasted word.
In Lingxi's residence, Angel Yan, who was learning cooking from her, suddenly stood up, and the kitchen knife in her hand slammed onto the cutting board with a "clatter".
Lingxi put down the spatula, frowning, and asked, "Sister Yan, what's going on? Morgana called?"
"I don't know. The order came suddenly, let's execute it first and see what happens."
Angel Yan felt that this scene was familiar, but she did not think much of it and instead took out the Blazing Sword from the Dark Dimension.
"Walk."
Angel Yan rushed out of the house first, and Lingxi followed without saying a word, spreading her wings and rushing out behind her.
Inside the heavenly city, the remaining angels rushed to their respective posts.
One after another, silver-white figures darted through the air, orderly and composed, without the slightest sign of panic or hesitation.
Various large warships have set up their berths and are on high alert.
The entire Heavenly City, at this moment, was like a sleeping giant suddenly opening its eyes, exuding a chilling killing intent.
In the laboratory, He Xi stood in front of the cabin, quietly watching Li Yao inside through the observation window.
Inside the cabin, Li Yao learned about what was happening outside, and felt a warmth in his heart.
The Queen and the teacher went to such lengths for him alone.
Hey?
and many more!
Li Yao suddenly thought of something.
This seems somewhat similar to what Sister Zhui said about what happened 103 years ago.
But before he could think it through, He Xi's voice came over: "Xiao Yao, start the quantum engine and run it at full power."
"Yes, teacher."
Upon hearing this, Li Yao could only temporarily set aside his doubts and begin to devote himself wholeheartedly to the upgrade.
"Access to the sacred treasury of knowledge."
"Connect to the space-based computing cluster."
"Activate the quantum engine and run at full power."
He Xi and her colleagues had previously researched that top-tier computing power was required for the quantum engine to operate at full power.
So this time, we simply connected him to both of the Angelic Civilization's top-tier computers.
The Tianji Computing Cluster is He Xi's most valuable asset, second only to the Sacred Knowledge Treasury in computing power. However, 80% of its computing power is usually supplied to Tiancheng's defense system.
Therefore, Keisha specially approved the temporary promotion of Li Yao's access to the Winged Guardian level in the Sacred Treasury of Knowledge, meaning that he is now on the same level as Angel Yan.
Time ticked by, and the compatibility progress bar slowly made its way forward.
He Xi stared at the screen and breathed a slight sigh of relief.
It seems there were no major problems this time.
But often, what you fear most is what comes to pass.
She hadn't quite gotten over it yet.
"Clatter".
The entire Heavenly City was plunged into darkness without warning.
The distant starlight seemed to have been swallowed up by something, and the once brilliant sea of stars outside the Heavenly City turned into a dark mass.
Even all the lighting systems went on strike at the same time.
In the laboratory, He Xi frowned, her fingers flying across the control panel.
The backup power supply wasn't working, and the emergency lighting also failed.
She looked up at the window, her expression changing slightly. It wasn't a system malfunction; the light itself had disappeared.
Fortunately, the angels all have the ability to see clearly, so it didn't have much of an impact.
"Is it for an unknown reason again?"
She muttered to herself, her gaze falling on the cabin where Li Yao was located, where the energy fluctuations had exceeded the range of the instruments.
Just then, a commotion arose outside.
"It's raining?!"
"Black rain! Look!"
He Xi walked quickly to the window.
Sure enough, a dark cloud had gathered over Tiancheng at some point, and inky raindrops began to fall.
The first drop landed on an angel's shoulder armor. With a "hiss," white smoke immediately rose from the surface of the silver-white armor, leaving a shallow dent.
Acid rain?
"How could acid rain appear in Tiancheng?!"
The angel cried out in alarm and quickly erected an energy shield.
The rain was strange; it corroded the angel's armor, but had no effect on other places.
At the same time, Keisha in the palace immediately ordered: "Attention everyone! Raise the Heavenly City protective barrier! Everyone take shelter nearby and avoid exposure to the rain!"
A pale golden light rose from all directions, enveloping the entire Mero Heavenly Court.
Acid rain hit the photomask, making a "sizzling" sound, as dense as popping beans.
The angels breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the barrier could keep out the strange rain.
But the story didn't end there; something even stranger was yet to come.
