That fleeting glance across dimensions has become a nightmare they can never escape for the rest of their lives.
A name, a taboo code name that was only recorded as a symbol in the Alliance's oldest documents and represented "the end" and "plunder," surfaced in the mind of the Alliance Chairman.
Necrozma.
Ultimate form!
That gaze had no origin.
It does not belong to any known dimension, nor does it follow any understandable physical laws.
It simply exists.
Cold, lifeless, devoid of any emotion, it transcends even the concept of "indifference." It is more like a pure physical phenomenon, a manifestation of a universal law, an absolute "cognition" that completely breaks down the observed object into basic information.
Under this gaze, every powerful figure standing at the pinnacle of human power and strength in the temporary command center felt their souls being peeled away and analyzed inch by inch.
Its meaning of existence has been erased.
The dignity of life has been trampled upon.
They are no longer league presidents, no longer world champions, no longer battle-hardened generals. They are merely fragile carbon-based life forms, a pile of data that can be easily erased.
Dead silence.
An absolute stillness, as if even molecular vibrations were about to cease, enveloped the entire room.
A military general, known for his iron will and who had never flinched even during the most brutal beast tides, now had beads of cold sweat on his forehead. His clenched fist trembled uncontrollably, and his knuckles had lost all color from excessive force.
Another highly respected master of mysticism stared blankly into the void, his lips moving unconsciously as if trying to chant some kind of incantation to soothe the mind, but he couldn't even utter a complete syllable.
heartbeat.
Everyone could clearly hear the frantic pounding of the organ inside their chest cavity, each throbbing using all their strength, each contraction carrying the fear of impending death.
They have faced ancient Pokémon that have awakened from mythology and are capable of overturning continental plates.
They had also ventured deep into the rampaging secret realm where the laws of nature had collapsed and spacetime was disordered.
But all of this before them, this absolute suppression stemming from their life's hierarchy and dimensional origins, has utterly shattered the experience and understanding they had built up over their entire lives.
"connect……"
A voice rang out, dry and hoarse, like two pieces of rusty metal rubbing against each other.
Everyone's gaze suddenly turned to the source of the sound.
Alliance Chairman.
He remained seated at the head of the table, his body ramrod straight, but his usually calm and resolute face was now deathly pale. He didn't look at anyone, his eyes fixed on the massive crack piercing the sky on the main screen, as if he were using all his willpower to squeeze out the subsequent instructions through clenched teeth.
"...Global Alliance Emergency Communications Channel."
The order was given.
The silent command center instantly came to life. The communications officer's trembling fingers frantically tapped on the control panel, sending encrypted signal streams to every corner of the earth.
In the next few hours, this place became the brain of the entire planet.
The world's leading space physicists, occult experts, and strategic analysts gathered here via holographic projection. Their expressions, without exception, were filled with awe and solemnity.
The 24-hour uninterrupted joint monitoring of that huge crack has officially begun.
Countless detection beams were launched, and massive amounts of data were refreshed on every screen like a waterfall.
"The energy response is continuing to rise, the pattern is stable, and no signs of decay have been detected!"
"Anomalous spatial curvature! Its very existence is distorting the physical laws of our world!"
"According to spectral analysis, it is filled with a negative high-dimensional energy that we have never seen before!"
Emergency meetings were held one after another, with the sounds of debate, reports, and keyboard clattering all mixed together, creating a frenzied symphony before the apocalypse.
Finally, after discussions among all the experts, this doomsday gate hanging in the sky above Shanghai was officially given an official code name.
【Sky Gap】.
Simple and direct, yet containing a chilling terror.
Meanwhile, another report was urgently delivered to all decision-makers, the contents of which plunged the atmosphere, which had just begun to calm, back to freezing point.
The report has two sources.
Part of it is the unmanned probe that sent back a fleeting glimpse of the last image before the signal was lost.
The other part consists of data on the fierce battles fought by frontline trainers against those otherworldly creatures called "Bang-Head Jesters".
The Alliance has urgently revised the threat level for this extradimensional creature, the "Ultra Beast".
There was no buffer or discussion.
Its threat level has been directly elevated to the highest level, on par with legendary Pokémon!
"This is a completely different level of creature!" A young researcher in charge of data analysis pointed at the incomprehensible combat recording of the Bang-Headed Clown on the screen, his voice sharp with a hint of despair. "Its energy output pattern completely violates the laws of thermodynamics! Every attack is like a small energy explosion!"
The latest comprehensive analysis report was quickly presented to all decision-makers on the virtual screen with the highest access level.
[Preliminary Analysis of "Celestial Rift" and its High-Risk Internal Target "Ultimate Necrozma"]
The report states that the energy within the "Celestial Rift" is steadily increasing at a frighteningly stable rate.
The overlord at the other end, the terrifying being temporarily given the codename "Ultimate Necrozma," although it shows no signs of moving for the time being, is merely existing there. The energy it unconsciously emanates has already lit up an energy beacon in the void of another dimension that cannot be looked at directly.
This lighthouse is attracting more and more powerful Ultra Beasts, like sharks smelling blood, frantically gathering towards the direction of the spatial passage.
In the conference room, you could hear a pin drop.
Behind every decision-maker lies the lives of a nation, a region, and hundreds of millions of people.
A weighty decision was made by the Global President himself after a long and mentally exhausting process of deliberation.
"Before taking the initiative to investigate the enemy's specific situation, we must first find out the types, abilities, and behavior patterns of the first batch of potentially invading advanced alien beasts."
His voice, amplified by the loudspeakers, resonated in every corner of the center, carrying an unquestionable decisiveness.
"Prior to this, the Alliance does not recommend that any member state use strategic forces of the Heavenly King level or above to carry out a large-scale annihilation war against 'Sky Rift' and its surrounding areas."
"We don't know whether a large-scale energy burst will accelerate the expansion of the 'Celestial Rift,' nor do we know whether it will stimulate the terrifying being at the other end of the passage."
"Any rash action could trigger a chain reaction that we cannot afford."
This was a rational decision, bordering on cold-blooded.
It implies passive defense.
This means that in the early stages, enormous sacrifices will inevitably be made.
But this is the lowest-risk option that can be made based on the available data.
However, just as the alliance headquarters was formulating a step-by-step defense strategy based on rigorous scientific models,
On the front lines in Shanghai.
Lin Che stood on the rooftop of a tall building, the night wind ruffling his clothes. He looked up at the dark red scar that tore the sky apart.
The "Eye of Truth," invisible to ordinary people, was radiating a burning pain from between his eyebrows.
In his perception, the alliance's predictive model was wildly wrong.
The energy inside the rift is not "steadily increasing" at all!
That's a supervolcano that's being fueled like crazy!
Countless violent, chaotic energy streams, filled with destructive desires, are colliding, squeezing, and merging with each other, their expansion speed far exceeding the limits that the Alliance model can calculate!
A cosmic storm far exceeding everyone's imagination is brewing wildly on the other side of that rift.
It could erupt at any moment.
Chapter 93 The Goal: Beyond the Rift! Crossing the Ultimate Hole!
Night did not fall as expected.
Or rather, the darkness of Shanghai has been replaced by another, deeper, and more ominous "sky curtain".
The "Gap in the Sky," suspended above the city's dome, pulses with an eerie light. The light pierces through the clouds, staining the entire city, which never sleeps, with a chilling crimson hue. The streets are deserted, the neon lights are all extinguished, and the silence is utterly deafening.
Lin Che stood by the window of his mentor's room, his tense profile reflected in the glass.
Just now, he heard a piece of news from this usually calm and collected Heavenly King-level expert that was enough to overturn the world order.
"The top leadership of the alliance has approved a counterattack plan in an emergency meeting that just concluded."
The mentor's voice was deep, each word carrying a metallic weight.
"Code name, 'Dawn'."
The core of the plan is so simple it's almost insane.
No longer passively defending, no longer clinging to defensive lines.
The alliance will select its top combat forces to form a small advance team to traverse the [Celestial Rift] and head to that completely unknown other dimension.
Conduct a short-range reconnaissance mission and bring back crucial samples.
Lin Che's heart clenched.
Take the initiative?
How to cross that crack that exudes an aura of destruction?
He instinctively looked out the window at the blood-red sky, his throat feeling dry. This was no longer a matter of courage; it was almost tantamount to willingly offering humanity's most precious spark into the flames that would consume everything.
With his current qualifications, is he qualified to participate in an operation of this level?
The thought flashed through his mind, and he himself found it somewhat absurd.
Although he had played a crucial role in several previous incidents, those were ultimately regional crises. This time, however, it was a top-level operation concerning the survival of the entire world.
The "Dawn" advance team he envisioned would consist of champion-level powerhouses who stood at the pinnacle of the world, each name representing a legend.
I... am still far from being good enough.
Just as his thoughts were churning, he felt a burning sensation in his pocket.
He suddenly looked down, and the "Dragon's Spine" identity badge card placed in his inner pocket was now lighting up uncontrollably.
