"What's the word "bird"?" Tian Lie raised his head and looked at the plaque in front of him. He couldn't read it for a long time.

"Seal script. The Palace of Eternal Life." Zero said slowly.

The place where the three of them stood was a long white jade passage, leading straight forward to a huge palace ahead.

The passage is hundreds of meters wide, but it is broken and full of traces of defects.

On both sides of the passage and at the defects is an illusory night sky, with countless stars floating around, flickering.

The white jade passage moved forward, the terrain was getting higher and higher, and the broken traces became more and more serious, and it seemed as if it had been destroyed by some ancient god.

When we approached the palace, the white jade passage had completely disappeared, leaving only broken pieces, suspended and distributed in the dark void.

As for the palace, except for the front, it was barely intact, the rest of the parts had fallen apart. The plaque that Tian Lie just read just now was hanging on the main entrance of the palace.

"Eternal Life Palace? Humph... It seems that there is no sign of immortality?" Tian Lie sneered: "Who made this look like a ghost?"

"I don't know either." Zero shook his head: "Since I have remembered, this has been like this here."

After saying that, he didn't see any movement, and a light yellow halo wrapped the three of them up.

Tianlie and Nicole only felt that their feet were soft, as if they were stepping on cotton candy, and they were lifted up and flew towards the palace along the white jade passage.

The three of them were wrapped in a halo and flew extremely fast, but the strong wind was blocked from the halo, and it was almost impossible to feel that they were flying.

However, the white jade passage under the three of them was too long. Although the halo speed was fast enough, after a moment, the palace in front of them only slightly closer.

"So big!"

Nicole widened her eyes and looked around, watching the stars around her slowly flowing by, and the white jade passage under her feet swept back quickly, but the palace seemed to be still in the distant sky, stunned: "I didn't expect that there was such a large space hidden in City Zero... Compared with it, City Zero itself is simply... like a pigeon cage!"

After flying for more than ten minutes, the palace finally arrived. At this moment, Nicole and Tianlie were amazed at the hugeness of the palace.

Although the intact part is only a small part of the main hall in front, it is still incredibly huge. Although it is built in the starry sky, the palace is slowly rising as if it is built against the mountain, with mountains and villas, majestic momentum.

And under the plaque, thousands of steps were going upwards, making the three of them look as small as three ants.

"arrive."

Zero let out a faint sound, and the three of them fell down wrapped around the yellow halo and stopped at the door of the palace: "From here, we can no longer fly with my authority."

"It's okay, at least you don't have to climb that high stairs." Tian Lie whistled: "What's next? Go in?"

"Yes." Zero nodded and walked forward first.

The main entrance of the palace is almost as big as a building, but one of the two doors is missing. I don’t know where it scattered to the starry sky.

When he walked into the door, a golden light suddenly came into the eyes of the three of them. In the hall, from the floor to the pillars, to the beams and roofs above his head, it was all pure gold.

"The style of a nouveau riche." Tian Lie grinned and pointed ahead: "It's where?"

The hall is empty, with no seats or anything like that. It is only in the center, with nine giant pillars surrounding a railing. From a distance, there is nothing in the middle of the railing.

"Yes. Please come with me."

Zero quickly walked towards the position of the nine giant pillars, and Tianlie and Nicole followed behind him.

After getting closer, Tianlie and Nicole saw clearly the appearance in the middle of the railing.

The circle of railings surrounded about a circle with a radius of several meters. In the center of the railing, there was no floor, but a vast white chaos.

In the middle of the chaos, a tiny black dot was slowly rotating, stretching and contracting in a fixed rhythm, like a beating heart.

Nicole just glanced at it, and her eyes seemed to be sucked into the black dot and could never be pulled out.

The black dot suddenly surged in Nicole's vision, swallowing all her vision, covering her like a vast expanse.

Even his feelings about time were instantly distorted. Nicole seemed to be thrown into space suddenly, and her body had disappeared, leaving only her own perspective patrolling rapidly.

A mysterious feeling instantly penetrated her body. Countless galaxies passed by her quickly, but they just passed by without touching them.

As if tens of thousands of years had passed, Nicole's whole body was shocked, and a heavy palm slapped her shoulder.

With that beat, Nicole's gaze began to rise rapidly. In a blink of an eye, she suddenly broke away from the black dot and returned to the hall, screaming "ah".

From the forehead to the back, there was a chill. Nicole reached out and wiped it on her forehead, touching the sweat all over her hands.

Tian Lie's face next to him was also not very good-looking, but it was much better than Nicole.

"Stop looking. With your current strength, you can't bear it." Tian Lie looked at Nicole and slowly shook his head.

"What should I do?"

Nicole tilted her head and didn't dare to look at the railing again, but just turned her head and asked Zero.

"Jump in." Zero also looked at the black dot in the chaos, pressed his hands on the railing, and said softly.

"Jump in?" Nicole widened her eyes: "You mean, jump into this railing?"

"Yes, believe me, nothing will happen." Zero shook his head gently: "Please hurry up, we don't have much time, Chen... is coming soon."

"etc."

Tian Lie frowned and suddenly stretched out his hand to block Nicole: "Since you've arrived here, there's no need to rush for a moment. It's better to ask some things clearly. What will happen when she jumps in?"

Zero glanced at Tianlie with a calm expression: "I have already said on the way I came to get the highest authority of Zero City."

"I know." Tianlie interrupted Zero impatiently: "What I asked is, what will happen after Nicole has obtained this highest authority?"

He paused and continued, "I remember every word you said clearly. When you first appeared in front of us, you said that Chen Xiaolian had the authority to control you, so he could give orders to you. One of them was to prevent Chen from getting your authority.

But just now, in the third level, you treated that man... Well, it was named Chris. You told him that no matter who gets your authority, Zero City, as an entity, will disappear forever.

So, please explain clearly to me whether getting your authority means giving orders to you or causing Zero City to disappear! I will not let Nicole continue the next step until you provide enough answers that satisfy me."

"Tianlie..." Nicole frowned, but was interrupted roughly by Tianlie: "Stop talking nonsense, listen obediently, you silly girl!"

Nicole's eyebrows stood up, but she still suppressed her anger and did not ejaculate.

"I'm sorry, because of time, I may not have explained enough to you, which led to your confusion." Ling shook his head slowly: "The authority Chen Xiaolian has is two completely different things from the authority Chen wants to seize.

The permissions Chen Xiaolian has are my "administrator". Having this permission means that any instruction can be issued to me, and I must execute it unless someone with the same or higher authority issues another instruction that violates it.

Getting administrator authority is in another place called Room Zero. The Hall of Eternity is my core location. What Chen wants to get is my core. In other words, it is myself."

"You yourself?" Tian Lie's brow frowned: "Tell me clearly."

"If you want to give an example..." Zero thought for half a second and said slowly: "To open and use a computer, you must have an account. And Zero City is this computer.

As for me, it is the operating system installed in this computer.

For most of the time before, although there were many permanent teams in Zero City, no one had an administrator account. They could only use the default tourist account, so many functions could not be enabled. In fact, none of the veteran members of Zero City had communicated with me and did not know my existence.

Chen Xiaolian was the first person to come to Zero City with the initial template in a long time and received the second highest authority. Therefore, he has an administrator account and can issue unviolable instructions to me.

Now, what Chen wants is not a software-level account, but to shut down the system, disassemble my case, and take away my CPU."

"So, in order not to let Chen get that CPU, you have to take the lead and hand it over to Nicole?" Tian Lie's brows became tighter and tighter: "What will happen if he gets that CPU?"

"I don't know." Zero shook his head: "As a program, I can't imagine things that transcend my own existence. I can only execute them according to the instructions issued by Chen Xiaolian."

"Does there be such a possibility..." Tian Lie pondered for a moment: "Nicole... has become a program like you, no longer a living person, but can only mechanically execute someone's commands. For example... Chen Xiaolian?"

"Sorry, this question is beyond my ability and I can't answer it." Zero shook his head again.

"What if...she refuses?" Tian Lie looked straight at Zero.

"I'm just a program and can't force anyone, so if she refuses, it will be that I will not be able to complete the instructions given by Chen Xiaolian." Zero's voice was still calm.

"Tianlie, when will I need you to be the leader of my family?" Nicole's cold voice came from behind Tianlie: "Get out of the way."

"What are you doing?" Tian Lie turned his head, glared at Nicole, and pointed at Zero: "Do you really want to become a program like this guy?"

"If the result is to make that guy Chen defeated, I'm happy to pay such a trivial price." Nicole sneered: "If I remember correctly, you said before entering Zero City that you won't stop me from doing my own thing. So, please get out of the way."

Tianlie stared at Nicole, and Nicole also looked up at Tianlie without any permission.

The two people's eyes collided violently in the air.

"All right."

After a moment, Tianlie sighed softly: "Whatever you want, just do it. Sorry, I'm troublesome."

Tianlie turned sideways and moved away from the blocking railing.

"Thank you." Nicole nodded coldly and walked towards the railing.

As Nicole approached, the railing opened automatically.

Nicole took a deep breath and jumped towards the chaos under her feet.

But her body had just jumped up, but suddenly it was frozen in the air.

Lingcheng suddenly turned around, his eyes passed through the palace gate, and projected towards the end of the white jade passage.

In the distance, the blonde-haired man pushed open the door and just stepped on the ground with one foot.

His right hand was holding Adam, his left hand was vainly extended in the air in front of him, and his palm was aimed at the palace.

"I really didn't expect that you actually found other living organisms. Fortunately, although it took a lot of effort, it was still timely."
