The beautiful boy who was reborn in the dark world of women

The disc slowly rose, and countless oval containers inlaid on the surrounding well walls gradually sank into the darkness below under Lor's gaze.

The indicator light above the head flickered, and a faint light flashed in the flowing line from time to time, and then quickly went out. Not long after, the disc reached the end and stopped with a slight tremor.

What appeared before my eyes was a silent hall, similar to the cave below, littered with mechanical wreckage and broken wires, and covered with thick dust.

Only the dim indicator light above his head was still flashing from time to time, as if guiding Lor in the right direction.

Lor looked up at the indicator light above, walked out of the disc calmly, and walked towards the direction where the indicator light was flashing.

This place looks like a forgotten tomb, sleeping in a corner of the abyss of the Eternal Battlefield, enjoying temporary peace.

But there must be something here that led me here.

There was a fiery golden light in Lor's eyes, and a strange feeling surged in his heart, as if something was watching him in the darkness before him.

Right there…

As Lor approached slowly, the darkness fled before him, revealing what existed there—

A round disk. At first, Lor even thought it was a round table or some kind of instrument. There were countless cracks on it, and an extremely thin sense of existence emerged from the cracks.

Yes, presence.

There is life inside this disk.

"How do I open this thing?"

Lor hesitated a little and stretched out his hand but did not touch it.

Even in his previous life, Lor had never seen such strange machines. The craftsmanship of the Aslan Empire seemed to have fused magical divinity and steel together to create these strange instruments that he had never seen before.

While Lor was still hesitating, a crackling sound like an electric current suddenly came from the disc, and a faint blue light emerged from the cracks.

Under Lor's gaze, this strange disc slowly opened to both sides. It seemed that due to the baptism of a long time, the once delicate and sensitive instrument had become clumsy and dull. It opened little by little, accompanied by the friction sound of jamming.

What appeared in front of Lor was an identical oval transparent container, but there was no such creature that was a fusion of machinery and flesh and blood inside.

Yes, just a...

Pink brain.

The brain tissue was completely exposed, and inside it were several thin cables that extended into the darkness deep inside the disc.

Brain in a vat.

Lor felt that the scene before him was chilling, and what was even more incredible was that the brain in this container was still alive.

Although it is very weak, there are still signs of life.

Lor raised his head and looked around. There was no other creation in the empty hall, no other disc, no throne, no mad king Everly VII, and no last princess Sleeping Beauty.

There is only eternal silence and remaining dust.

This is the last, the only thing that exists in the Aslan Empire——

A brain in a container.

Lor didn't even know if it had its own consciousness. If it did, it would have no sensory perception, would not be able to sense the passage of time, would not be able to think, would not be able to fall asleep, and would not be able to wake up.

Just thinking about it can drive people into crazy torture.

But no matter how confused or shocked Lor was, the brain in front of him remained motionless and slept quietly.

It exists so painfully and so fragile that it will be completely destroyed by the slightest external force.

"What's the point of this?"

Lor muttered to himself in confusion. He raised his hand, a faint light emanating from his fingertips, but he gently put it down.

[Survival is the only meaning]

Faintly, a voice like a dream answered his question. The young man was startled and made up his mind in silence.

He raised his hand, and surging divine light rushed out from his fingertips, directly flooding the brain in the container, and changes finally appeared.

Under the stimulation of this divinity of love, the cables connected to the brain tissue were lit up and began to sizzle. In the brain cells exposed to the air, the last will of an empire was awakening.

She whispered softly.

"Ah... you're here."

It was as if a dim star was ignited, and in the golden light, a blazing white storm swept out, opening the way to the Lost Royal Court for those who came.

So after a brief period of darkness, Lor stepped on solid ground again.

The vast plain roared and spread out from him. Lush vegetation instantly covered the field. Rivers rushed through it. Winding railroad tracks grew through it, connecting the steel-cast city. The outline of the city could be vaguely seen on the distant horizon.

The light blue sky is clear and bright, the sunshine is gentle and clear, the breeze carries the fragrance of flowers and plants, and there is a touch of colorful clouds in the distant sky.

Lore stood on a hillside overlooking a vast plain, with a lush oak tree beside him providing shade.

Not far behind him, a magnificent city like something out of a fairy tale was bathed in the sun.

It is so majestic, like a steel jungle, densely packed with all kinds of metals and machines that are unimaginable in the world today, and the towering spires are like sharp swords piercing the sky.

Countless people live and reside in it.

"Personality awakening."

A cold and monotonous mechanical voice sounded behind him. Lor turned around and saw a girl slowly sitting up from the shade of the oak tree.

It should be a girl.

The facial features were soft and beautiful, and the appearance was pure and lovely, but half of the skin had a silver-gray metallic luster.

The same was true of her body. Most of it had been replaced by metal machinery. Lor could see the gears and hubs working beneath her skin. Even when she stood up stiffly, a faint white mist emerged from her body.

"…It's been a long time since we had any guests."

The mechanical girl spoke in a synthesized electronic voice. She seemed to have lost her voice, and even her voice could only be spoken by machines.

Her eyes were still bright, but there was a scarlet light deep in her pupils, like some kind of indicator light.

The mechanical girl looked at Lor and asked directly.

"How did you get into this place? Through the dream of the silent guard or..."

"Love Divinity, I reached the Hall of the King's Court and saw it there."

Lore paused.

"Your container."

"..."

The mechanical girl seemed to be thinking. When she was silent, her beautiful eyes flickered like indicator lights. At the same time, white steam continued to emanate from her body.

A real steam girl.

After a while, she seemed to have understood the whole situation and said, "That's right. The divinity of love is special and can reach here."

"I can sense that the Silent Guards are fighting the invaders. Are they in the same group with you?"

Frey and Nellie?!

"Yes, we arrived at the forest of steles on the ice together, but we separated when we teleported down."

Lor spoke quickly.

"I see. I will ask the Silent Guards to stop attacking, but they cannot enter this place. The Divinity of Beauty and the Divinity of Insects are not allowed."

As the mechanical girl spoke, the lights in her eyes flickered rapidly for a long time, as if she was conveying some information.

"Thank you very much."

Lor said, his heart slightly moved, the condition of this shelter seemed to be better than he had imagined.

"So, traveler who harnesses the divinity of love, why are you here?"

The mechanical girl completed the communication, raised her eyes, and chuckled. Because it was a synthetic electronic sound, it sounded a little weird.

"I want to go to the garden of the god of love, and I hope you can show me the way."
