The Heart of God

L'Harrone, the Planetary Core.

The engineering droids had already completed their scan of the cool planet's heart from tip to toe. They had erected all sorts of research and engineering units around its outer shell, with towers and connecting tubes linked to the core. That gave Hao Ren the feeling of an ongoing "surgery".

It was as if the planet's core was being prepared to go under the knife...

"This is technically similar to surgery." Nolan laughed after she listened to Hao Ren's thoughts. "The Heart of God is located deep within the planet's core, and it is covered by the usual metals and rock layers. You'll need to cut it apart to take it out anyway. Plus, the Heart of God was originally soaked in the lava, but after the planet was torn in two, the core rapidly cooled down, and the Heart of God was sealed deep within the hardened lava."

Hao Ren raised his eyebrow. "But its ability to affect the information outside is not impeded."
