Chapter 446 - Mu Yunhua’s Revenge
Chapter 446: Mu Yunhua’s Revenge
In a materialist world, only matter could affect matter. But, in the idealist world, one could use one’s “spirit” to influence matter. For example, manufacturing a weapon or producing guns and ammunition would, in a materialist world, involve various tools and assembly lines. The process was complicated, large-scale, and had a high production cost. But in an idealist world, some wielders of supernatural power could change the structure of matter in terms of its internal atomic arrangement by controlling magnetic fields.
For example, they could make nano-products such as graphene and nano-alloys. Manufacturing these required a large production line. However, there were some powerful cultivators who could create extremely precise parts with their powerful micro-manipulation capabilities. Objects such as miniature spiritual fabrications, linked puppets, and so on could be created by a single individual.
In terms of craft, a single cultivator or one of those with superpowers could sometimes fill in for a massive production line, significantly reducing the complexity of processing and saving a heap of money.
Combining this fact with the large variety of minerals from the Heavenly Realm that had unique physicochemical properties, many inconceivable magical technologies had been realized. This technology transformed before Chen Jin’s eyes into the S-class warship, which had a comprehensive combat power that was hard to comprehend.
“The biggest difficulty still lies in mass production,” Nuwa said with a sigh. “It would take us approximately 10 years to produce just one S-class warship such as this. We can’t produce dozens of them every year like the A-class ones.” The more advanced a thing was, the harder it was to mass-produce. This was a fundamental truth applicable in all universes.
“One in ten years?” Chen Jin felt a little helpless. In this universe of unfathomable size, there were billions of galaxies. If they wanted to conquer them all, either they somehow had to instantly come out with billions of S-class warships, or they had to spend a billion years of time... neither path was achievable.
“Forget it. I need to stop overthinking this. This ace-in-the-hole we have in hand will be enough. We shall first establish an invincible position for ourselves and lay out a few small goals for us to realize step-by-step. It is completely unnecessary to worry.”
...
At the space dock.
As one entered the interior of the S-class warship, the silvery, bright space seemed to be spotless, and the artificial gravity seemed to come right from the ground, as if one were in a dreamlike, sci-fi fantasy. The decorative style of the bridge control center made it look like a luxurious gemstone showroom, brimming with the light refracting from various gems. Unless one turned the “glitz” mode off, it liked exceptionally magnificent.
“Switch to ‘simple mode’, these flashes will make me blind,” Chen Jin said as he faced the console.
“Sure, master,” said shipborne artificial intelligence ‘S,’ whose performance was no weaker than Nuwa’s.
“Take us around the solar system,” Chen Jin ordered.
“Yes, master.”
...
Through the transparent porthole.
The dazzling stars in the distance gradually became a display of curved lines.
Guo Yan who was right by his side, enjoying the incredible scenery with him.
“What a wonderful world. It would be even better if we could always live here,” Guo Yan said with great emotion. Once upon a time, her dream had been to live in a beautiful paradise with the one she loved, never disturbed by anyone. From the looks of things at that moment, it seemed that her unrealistic dream had actually come true.
A beautiful, undisturbed romantic oasis truly did exist.
“You are wrong. This world is similar to the universe on Earth’s side—equally bustling, and equally chaotic,” Chen Jin said, shaking his head and extending a finger. “1,000—in the Milky Way alone, more than 1,000 civilizations have been observed. The hidden and undisclosed ones total at least ten times that number. Wars are erupting in countless galaxies, as every civilization is made up of hunters.”
“Take planet Haierfa. It was once inhabited by a population of more than ten billion, but, because of the aliens’ plot, there were none left today. And, in the Walf Galaxy, just 14 light-years away, an intense interstellar war erupted just a few years ago. Danger and war are extremely close to me.”
Chen Jin briefly told her about the challenges and the crisis he was facing.
“Oh...” Guo Yan nodded, but there was not much worry on her face. “Compared to Earth’s side, this place is at least 10 thousand times safer. Also, the challenges I’ve faced here are not all that difficult. Somehow, this place even feels like a safe haven for me. If we could continue living here in seclusion, that would be wonderful.”
“Well, maybe you’ll get bored of all this quietness after a few decades.”
“I won’t. It will never be too quiet with you around,” said the woman, looking at the man.
Chen Jin scratched his nose. Somehow, he didn’t feel as comfortable as he had before.
Ding. ding, ding...
A communication request.
Nuwa’s figure appeared on the screen said, “Master, it is a call from the princess. It appears that she has something to discuss with you. Should I put her through?”
Chen Jin glanced at Guo Yan beside him and, after some thought, said, “Put her through. I wonder what she’s up to?”
Princess?
The corners of Guo Yan’s eyes twitched. Who is this person?
After communication was established, they heard an enthusiastic voice:
“Hello, naughty! My fleet has taken down another Selain planet just now. After I killed almost half of them, the rest of the Selains have agreed to be my slaves. Not only have they surrendered their Civilization Core containing large amounts of technical information, but they’ve also obediently put on the explosive collar. I’ve gained a whole three billion slaves who will give me free labor.
“This is the tenth planet I have taken down. The nine other sub-fleets have also raided around 10 galaxies each... we have taken down about one-tenth of the Selains’ domain.
“How’s that, naughty? We did a great job, didn’t we? Besides, the Selain civilization is already panicking and has sent me multiple requests for a peace negotiation, but I have rejected all of them, and this is just the beginning! Even if it’s a hundred times the proper retribution, at least a trillion Selains must die. I will never show them any mercy!”
Mu Yunhua, at present, was simply a hyped-up, vengeful queen.
She had no mercy, no kindness, and, now, she was indulging in the pleasure of eliminating her enemies after having obtained power.
Hearing these words, Guo Yan was stunned. There were spasms at the corner of her mouth. For no apparent reason, she felt a heat spreading through her body that was going to make her faint.
“N-naughty”... what’s with that weird nickname?
And her tone of speech... a little flirty, warm, and confiding; it surely means that they have a close relationship.
There must be something wrong!
As a woman, she could sense that a lot of fishy things were going on.
As she turned to look at the man beside her, although she was about to explode on the inside, she still had to put on a gentle smile to conceal her inner thoughts.
“Yeah, keep it up, stay happy, and, besides, you don’t have to call me every time you take down a planet and tell me how many Selains you’ve slaughtered. This is not very good of you; women should be gentler...”
Chen Jin said a few words and then hung up.
Suddenly, a soft voice sounded in his ear.
“Hubby, didn’t you say that you are the only person in this universe? What’s up with this woman who’s just contacted you? Would you mind telling me about her?”
It was very peaceful and gentle voice.
But, when Chen Jin turned around, he was instantly appalled.
It may have been a hallucination, but the woman in front of him had eyes flashing red, and the surface of her body seemed to be covered in a layer of burning, black smoke.
