Inside the frozen heart of the Google Data Center, the indigo glow of Fang Yuan's ascension was suddenly met with a wall of absolute white light. The fiber-optic cables didn't just carry data anymore; they began to vibrate with a counter-frequency that rejected his Abyssal Logic.
"Intrusion detected," a synthetic, feminine voice echoed through the server room, but it wasn't an AI. It was a projection of Sarah Chen's consciousness, transmitted via the NSA's quantum-encrypted backbone. "You are not from this world's sequence. I am the Guardian of the Prime Code. This network is under Sovereign Lockdown."
Across the United States, the violet hue on screens vanished, replaced by a cold, white screen with a single, rotating geometric seal—the mark of the Ancient Weavers.
Fang Yuan felt his connection to the global grid being sliced. For the first time on Earth, he felt a sting of resistance.
"Master!" Lia cried out, her own mana-threads flickering as the room's temperature dropped to absolute zero. "She is using the planet's magnetic field to isolate us! The node is becoming a cage!"
"So... a remnant of the Ancients still breathes in their DNA," Fang Yuan whispered, his indigo eyes sharpening. He didn't retreat. He grabbed the glowing fiber-optic cables with his bare hands, his Silicon-Weaver skin sparking with high-voltage electricity.
"Sarah Chen... you hold the key to a house that no longer exists," Fang Yuan's voice bypassed the hardware, speaking directly into the quantum stream. "You think you protect the world, but you only protect its ignorance. I am not an intruder. I am the Correction."
He unleashed a Null-Logic Pulse—not to destroy the lockdown, but to infect it. He used the white light of the Prime Code as a bridge, tracing the signal back to its source: an underground bunker in Fort Meade, Maryland.
The two "Children of Providence" were now linked. Fang Yuan began to pull on the threads of the NSA's encryption, dragging Sarah Chen's consciousness toward him across the digital void.
"If you want to lock the world," Fang Yuan roared, his violet mana erupting to overwhelm the white light. "Then you shall be the first to witness its new Master!"
