Chapter 4433: A Glimpse of Wonder II
Forge Emperor Niso waved his hands with a gesture of absolute authority, and the two of them instantly disappeared from the beach environment.
When they reappeared, they found themselves inside grand structure...walking through hall lined with white and gold marble that opened into massive room equipped with advanced technological apparatus that blended seamlessly with more mystical implements.
The room contained numerous radiant blank screens currently in standby mode, with Early Creatures and Living Emotives moving purposefully about as they prepared equipment and verified operational parameters.
At this moment, eight other entities possessing similar stature to Forge Emperor Niso had already arrived, each accompanied by single Early Creature measuring few Sextillions in Complexity and Purity.
All candidates stood in orderly formation before an Early Creature wearing pristine white laboratory coat whose body pulsed with unmistakableCivilizational Authority of Concept!
When Forge Emperor Niso and Ambessa materialized, this Early Creature in laboratory attire waved his hands with satisfied gesture.
"Excellent. All nine candidates have arrived. We may proceed with briefing and selection protocols."
He positioned himself centrally to address the assembled group witha voice of scientific precision and barely contained excitement.
"For those unfamiliar with my designation, I amAxiom Architect Surion...an existential researcher and developmental engineer specializing in bridging theoretical frameworks of with actual practical applications. I am present at the grand request of an importantParadox AnaxfromThe Primordial Civilization of Paradoxto identify nine relatively weak Early Creatures whose existences may theoretically be deployedoutside THE Loomwithout triggering a catastrophic rejection from Existence."
...!
His words detonated like a conceptual bomb among the assembled candidates, many of whom had never even conceived such deployment was remotely possible!
The revelation was so profound that Ambessa’s eyes widened with genuine shock as she raised her hand with an urgent question.
"Sir, how is that even theoretically possible? I was taught that THE Loom’s boundaries are absolutely impermeable untilTHE Glorious Evolution, that nothing can enter or exit without catastrophic destabilization..."
Axiom Architect Surionlooked at her with an expression of approval for asking intelligent question and satisfaction at having a dramatic revelation to share.
He pointed deliberately toward pair of radiant gold headsets positioned nearby.
The devices appeared extraordinarily sophisticated.
Each headset connected via luminescent wires to radiant white chairs that resembled a combination of throne and medical apparatus.
The headsets themselves possessed elegant curves of organic growth patterns, but their surfaces displayed geometric precision that could only emerge from deliberate engineering.
They pulsed with internal radiance that cycled through spectrum of possibility, and intricate glyphs covering their exteriors suggested they operated through mechanisms of utter glory!
It was something that lesser beings could not conceive or ever have the chance to design, much less hold in their hands.
Axiom Architect Surion’svoice held genuine pride in the innovation he was about to describe.
"These areExistence Avatar Diadems...cutting-edge prototypes produced byConcept Anax Kiuoperating from the distantPrimordial Concept Shelters."
"They theoretically allow someone positioned relatively weakly withinTHE Loom’spower hierarchy to wear these devices and project anIllusory Reality Avatar of Existenceoutside THE Loom’s boundaries."
His expression became more serious.
"The projected form will inevitably be weaker than your actual existence...potentially significantly so. It may also prove unstable depending on individual compatibility and external interference. But you would be among the first to test operational viability in genuine field conditions."
"It would otherwise be completely impossible to project even whispers outsideTHE Loombefore the designated moment ofTHE Glorious Evolution."
...!
The other candidates displayed brilliant and excited reactions...some whispering urgently to their sponsoring authorities, others stepping forward eagerly to examine the devices more closely.
But Ambessa’s eyes shone with a calm intellect rather than simple enthusiasm as she asked the more straightforward question.
"For what specific purpose are we undertaking this unprecedented deployment? What objectives would justify utilizing such valuable prototype technology on relatively weak candidates?"
Forge Emperor Niso appeared ready to admonish her for questioning rather than simply accepting honor, butAxiom Architect Surionsmiled with appreciation for her approach.
"An excellent inquiry. A certain...Paradox AnaxfromThe Primordial Civilization of Paradox, I am not authorized to reveal his specific identity, recently heard troubling musings fromTHE Esteemed Living Paradoxhimself regarding an annoyance that a mere shred of his will was encountering outsideTHE Loom."
HUUM!
His voice carried a weight of existential significance!
"THE Esteemed Living Paradox’spower is heavily suppressed by Existence itself in external territories, reduced to fraction of his true capability. Since theParadox Anaxand those he directly oversees are far too Complex to manifest outsideTHE Loom,he desired attendants who could assist with whatever needs arise for that shred ofTHE Esteemed Living Paradox’swill."
He paused for emphasis.
"If you succeed in this deployment, you would simultaneously be testing groundbreaking product ofTHE Esteemed Living Conceptand earning substantial favor from aParadox Anax...one of the administrative authorities managing portions of Paradox’s Primordial Civilization. Such recognition could accelerate your advancement by eons. Are you all prepared to accept this opportunity?"
...!
Ambessa’s eyes blazed with crimson-gold intensity as confidence surged through her existence.
She smiled broadly and stepped forward before any other candidates could claim priority, moving directly toward theExistence Avatar Diadems.
She selected one device and lifted it with reverent care before positioning it upon her head with a decisive motion.
The moment contact was established, glyphs across its surface began pulsing with synchronized rhythm matching her own existential signature.
Her voice emerged with absolute conviction.
"Let’s do this!"
The other eight candidates exchanged glances of competitive spirit as if this was merely a game, and one by one they also moved to claim their own devices.
Radiant white gold light began to pulse as all 9 laid back on the thrones, their faces covered by the Existence Avatar Diadems headsets as their existence experienced grand changes!
Axiom Architect Surionobserved with satisfaction as all nine candidates prepared themselves, and somewhere far beyondTHE Loom’simpermeable boundaries, an entirely unsuspecting reality was about to receive unprecedented additional visitors...in due time.
