Just now, the red ball bounced again, almost breaking out of the cube cylinder.
If it weren't for the special magnetic field surrounding the cube-shaped cylinder, which could immediately sense the internal situation and automatically generate stronger restraints, it would be impossible for it to function properly.
The red ball has probably already escaped.
Just like when we escaped from here before.
Witnessing this scene, even Xiao Hao, who had previously mocked Xiao Mian and the others for worrying unnecessarily, couldn't help but show a look of tension.
We were indeed powerless to stop the red ball from making any move.
Even if the other party really escaped from the base, all I could do was watch helplessly.
However, when the red ball showed signs of escaping, Xiao Hao inevitably felt nervous.
[In the end, I was still influenced by that guy...]
Xiao Hao's gaze suddenly stopped when he inadvertently glanced at Xiao Mian's seat.
From where Xiao Hao is standing, he can clearly see Lu Xuan walking towards him from outside.
Xiao Hao felt genuine fear towards this second male lead in "Ultraman Tiga".
Despite his fear, Xiao Hao couldn't help but admire and envy the other person.
Whether it's forcibly appearing in the real world, or what they've done over the past six months...
They were all telling Xiaohao that if these outrageous characters from tokusatsu films appeared in the real world, no one could stop him from doing anything.
......................................................................................................
"Looks like I arrived just in time!"
She didn't notice or care about Xiao Hao's gaze.
As Lu Xuan stepped into the hall, he merely stared at the red ball inside the cubic cylinder with a half-smile.
As if sensing Lu Xuan's malice, the red ball, which had returned to calm, became restless again.
Boom!
This time, the sound of the red ball hitting the special magnetic field could be clearly heard.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
Once, twice, three times...
To the children's astonishment, the increasingly active red ball's surface sprouted hideous spikes.
The little girl in red was the most surprised.
This was the second time she had seen this change in the red ball.
As the pinnacle of human technology in another dimension, it is the "omnipotent wish-granting machine" capable of fulfilling people's desires.
The original color of the red ball was blue, a color that symbolizes hope.
It wasn't until humanity was destroyed and dimensions collapsed that the originally blue red sphere turned as if it had been stained with blood.
The will of the little girl in red was born at that time.
The shape of the red ball has changed, which obviously means that its capabilities have been enhanced once again.
"I knew it. So many reincarnations couldn't possibly have no effect on you."
Seeing this, Lu Xuan, who had expected it, remained unusually calm.
According to the little girl in red, the red ball increases its power by absorbing human emotions.
It travels through time and space time and time again, destroying humanity, all to achieve this goal.
So here's the question: did all those repeated cycles of reincarnation also constitute a series of destructions of this spacetime?
It has been repeated so many times, gone through so many cycles...
Even by the most conservative estimate, the red ball has accumulated enough power to transform itself once again, right?
Moreover, what is the essence of the red ball?
That was a product of the highest material authority of humanity in another timeline, an incredible creation called the "Worldline Interference Prototype".
"The all-powerful wishing machine" is just a name given to the red ball by people who don't understand it.
Based on Lu Xuan's research over the past six months, he discovered that he was influenced by the preconceived notions surrounding the little girl in red, and that his most basic understanding of the red ball might be wrong.
What the red ball seeks may not be some emotion deep within the human heart, but rather the act of humans making changes itself.
The universe is not static, and spacetime is not eternal...
Besides the most basic system of matter and energy, the changes in the universe itself are also a force.
However, this power is more illusory and more difficult to fathom.
Tens of millions of years ago, a monkey picked up a bone and a stone, changing the way its species hunted, and thus giving birth to the intelligent species that is human.
A butterfly flapping its wings on one side of the Pacific Ocean can cause a massive storm on the other side.
This is the power of change!
To put it in a slightly mystical way—this is the general trend, the destiny, cause and effect, and the creation!
The universe itself is constantly changing and moving, gradually becoming more perfect and powerful.
The "worldline interference prototype" is essentially a mimicking of this process of motion and change, subverting everything in the past, present, and future.
However, the time required for such dynamic and changing forces to materialize is far too long.
Without external forces, the universe might remain unchanged even after billions of years.
Only intelligent races that have given birth to civilization can accelerate this movement and change through their own subjective initiative, and thus push this movement and change to a certain extreme in a short period of time.
But this has created a new problem.
That is, not all civilizations have the ability to change the world.
The dramatic changes in a civilization or a race, and their impact on the world, are a long and gradual process.
It took humankind tens of millions of years to go from possessing intelligence to developing civilization.
It took humanity thousands of years to transition from a slave society to an industrial society.
Humanity transitioned from an industrial society to a modern society in less than a few hundred years.
The most obvious differences lie in the satisfaction of survival conditions, the accumulation of knowledge and wisdom, the innovation of ideas and concepts, and the expansion of human desires.
When this change is narrowed down from race to individual, an outlandish yet surprisingly plausible idea emerges.
Is it possible to motivate intelligent life to change the world to the greatest extent possible within its capabilities simply by giving it enough ambition and ability?
As for whether this change is good or bad?
Will it ultimately lead to the destruction of the world?
That has nothing to do with the red ball; what it does is give humanity this ambition and ability.
Changing world lines time and time again, interfering with parallel universes time and time again...
The red ball accumulated enough "power of creation" in this process, eventually causing itself to undergo an incredible transformation.

Chapter 486 Three Wishes
"This is a miniature universe!"
"A simulated universe created by humankind using its own technology!"
With a hint of amazement, Lu Xuan walked past the crowd and arrived directly in front of the red ball.
"He has no wisdom, nor does he need wisdom..."
"Because His very existence is a manifestation of ultimate wisdom."
Ignoring the special magnetic field on the outer layer of the cubic cylinder, ignoring the increasingly menacing red sphere on its surface...
A faint dark power surged from Lu Xuan's palm, perfectly supporting and enveloping the red ball.
"What... do you want to do?"
Watching Lu Xuan's actions with bated breath, the little girl in red finally couldn't help but cry out.
For some reason, the little girl in red seemed to sense a strong sense of unease from Lu Xuan's expression at that moment.
"I just figured out where you came from..."
"At the same time, I finally understood the true nature of this red ball."
Looking around at the several children who still looked bewildered, Lu Xuan said nonchalantly.
"This red ball is a growing universe, a small world created by human hands."
"It travels through time and space, destroying worlds time and time again..."
"On the one hand, it's because that was its original purpose, and on the other hand, it's because its mechanism forces it to do so."
"As a miniature universe, this red sphere is like a cosmic singularity that has not yet exploded."
"Only by intercepting the 'creative power' of other universes can it accelerate its own birth and grow into a truly independent universe."
After a slight pause, Lu Xuan continued to explain.
"After figuring this out, your existence seems somewhat 'abnormal'."
"Because the universe itself does not require will."
"As long as enough 'power of creation' can be extracted, the red ball itself is neither good nor evil, and it does not need a specific will to guide its actions."
After fundamentally denying the significance of the little girl in red's existence, Lu Xuan looked at her with a slightly pitying gaze and said.
"You are not even a human from another timeline, nor are you a 'constraint mechanism' created to limit the red ball."
"You are merely a virtual personality created because of the wish of a certain holder when the red ball traveled to other dimensions."
"Therefore, you possess human cognition, human emotions, and human compassion..."
"This explains why you can't control the red ball's movements, or even influence the red ball's owner to make all sorts of crazy wishes."
It wasn't until this moment that the other children, including Xiao Mian, finally understood what Lu Xuan was talking about, and they all looked at the little girl in red with astonished eyes.
"what are you saying!?"
Looking up blankly at Lu Xuan, the little girl in red seemed to have a somewhat shrill voice.
"I mean, you are neither the messiah, nor the will of the red ball, nor the mechanism that controls the red ball..."
"You are just someone who once held the red ball, and made a wish upon it."
Before the little girl in red could refute him, Lu Xuan went a step further.
"Perhaps in a timeline where the red ball destroyed..."
"You might be a wish that a father or a mother made to the red ball..."
"It could also be a wish made to the red ball by a lonely human being, a child yearning for communication..."
"But whatever your original purpose was, your existence is not dependent on the red ball; you are a unique individual that exists independently."
“The title ‘Messiah’ is far too heavy for you.”
Lu Xuan was unsure what wish the little girl in red had led to her birth, or why she had been following the red ball through countless parallel universes.
The only thing he was certain of was that the little girl in red had placed too much pressure and responsibility on herself.
"From today onwards, you are the real Nanase Risa."
Before he finished speaking, the red ball in Lu Xuan's hand began to struggle again, with jagged spikes like the horns of a demon struggling to burrow outwards.
Unfortunately, Lu Xuan had already completed the analysis of the red ball's structure and kept it firmly under his control.
"You... made another wish!?"
I could clearly feel some kind of change happening in my body.
The little girl in red was both surprised and delighted, her eyes filled with an incomprehensible blankness.
"Nanase Risa" was originally just an identity created by the little girl in red in this time and space; such a person does not exist in the real world.
