With the royal tribute daemons fully eradicated from the system scheduling tree, Lin Tao directed his test array toward the backup tier of sky terror: the Tribulation Engine.
In the process directory of the security subsystem, the daemon burned with harsh, blazing bright crimson: DAEMON_WATCHDOG_PURGE.
Lin Tao swelled the working configuration schema. That brought thirty ancient Precursor execution scripts into sharp focus across twelve light-projected panes:
Lin Tao studied the historical settings with clean, steady care.
For eight hundred million years, every sect elder, rogue fighter, and revolutionary thinker across the nine realms had lived in terror of the Heavenly Tribulations. They believed that divine lightning was heaven’s sacred test of moral virtue and spiritual purity. They believed that only the righteous could withstand the nine tiers of sky purple thunder. That those who crumbled into ash were morally impure and cursed by the gods.
In reality, the Tribulation Engine was nothing more than a self-running outer edge defense script installed by the Precursors to prevent livestock from chewing through the outer edge fence.
Whenever any living organism in Container World 07 piled up more than one hundred kilojoules of moving, heat, or magnetic energy without a royal pass-key token, the sky-high watchdog automatically discharged a sky-high star-fire lance to burn up them.
