In the 88th year of the Star Dome Calendar, the Forgefire Embryo Starship, like a quantum leaf caught in the grip of an invisible giant, drifted slowly into the spiral arm of the Andromeda Galaxy. In the palm of Chen Feng’s hand, the Bee-Pattern Concert Core emitted a humming vibration. Outside the porthole, the "Forge-Fire Dimensional Resonance Chamber"—a million-kilometer-wide structure suspended in the center of the nebula—resembled an infinitely magnified beehive. Its hexagonal walls were woven from dark matter and quantum light membranes, and every crevice flowed with deep blue ripples that shared the same origin as the Earth Cold Pool. However, the surface of the resonance chamber was covered in spiderweb-like cracks of Pure Quality, and the energy fluctuations emanating from the core were like a dying heartbeat.
"Chen Feng! The quantum resonance frequency of the resonance chamber is destabilizing," Su Yuhan said, pointing to her monitoring screen where the waveform representing the symbiotic dimension was violently distorting. "I’ve detected the 'Dimensional Tuning Fork Virus' left behind by the String Breakers; it’s devouring the Cold Pool Quantum Imprint within the chamber. Worse, the 'Dimensional Key' at the core is undergoing a rejection reaction with the Thirteenth Egg!"
Liu Ruyan’s communication feed was obscured by static, yet the warning from the String-Weaver Civilization prophet came through: "The resonance chamber was built by the Primal Artisan to harmoni…
