Chapter 451: Operation Codename - Stellar Array
Chapter 451: Operation Codename - Stellar Array
"Only three divine artifacts? This is way too disappointing."
Qin Muye looked at the divine artifacts the other party had sent over, his face falling. He had expected at least a dozen, considering that when he was at the 5th rank, he also had roughly that many divine artifacts.
Hiding them was impossible because the gene decryption device he set up on the auction house required all divine artifacts. Even if the other party wanted to keep some for themselves, it wouldn't be possible, as this was enforced by Lord Era.
He might not fully trust Lord Era as a game, but he had to admit that Lord Era was very strict in enforcing rules, especially in the monetary system.
To put it simply, other aspects could be outsourced, but the monetary system was absolutely flawless.
He casually tossed the three divine artifacts into storage. These artifacts weren’t particularly good, offering only average to below-average bonuses.
"However, this newbie server of Zijing Immortal is actually a cultivation world. No wonder his territory is called Zijing Mountain. They must have all established their own sects, right?"
Qin Muye couldn’t help but comment. From the other party’s situation, it did seem like the headmaster genre, albeit a variant.
But the other party had squandered a good hand, ending up in this current state.
"Master, there’s a problem with Zijing Immortal." The intelligence department submitted a report through the Magic Network to Qin Muye.
Qin Muye quickly glanced through it. The other party had acquired two new statuses, but it was unclear whether they were positive or negative.
One was called "Soul Inward," and the other was "Cradle Sleep."
"Also suspected of amnesia?" Qin Muye looked at the situation, finding it somewhat strange.
The events that had transpired were naturally seen by the spirits, but the word "suspected" was marked with a question mark.
"From the current situation, the bloodline granted by Lord Era doesn’t directly remove functionality but remains intact. Therefore, Zijing Immortal was likely assimilated, but due to certain corresponding professions, he wasn’t completely assimilated. Instead, a pseudo-soul or new personality was formed."
"The interaction between bloodline and profession is quite interesting, but this newly born pseudo-soul hasn’t gained full access to Zijing Immortal’s memories, so he can’t interfere with the territory."
"The think tank analyzed this so quickly?"
Qin Muye didn’t know the process, but the think tank and command center, along with other departments, quickly provided their hypotheses.
There were a few hypotheses, but most were highly unlikely, so they were only briefly mentioned.
"Thus, the Three-Eyed Clan equals the Cradle Plan?"
"This is a bit chaotic."
Qin Muye pondered this. The possibility was significant, but it was also contradictory.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t delve deeper into Zijing Immortal’s situation, so he considered that since he had acquired the divine artifacts, and the other party had no further value, he might as well take action?
Eliminating the threat would save him a lot of trouble.
Just as he was about to order the destruction of Zijing Mountain, he received the latest report.
"Fluctuations in the soul, it seems something is invading. The Cradle Sleep status has changed to Civilizational Cradle, coinciding with the successful construction of the Three-Eyed Clan’s mental network."
"Thus, it’s confirmed that the Cradle Plan, the Three-Eyed Clan, and the Gondaya Civilization are one and the same."
"Interesting, so we’ve caught their tail?"
As for why Duke White Frost didn’t notice, it was simple: he lacked reconnaissance skills. He was a hero unit who joined halfway and hadn’t upgraded yet, so he naturally didn’t have the corresponding skills.
Therefore, he couldn’t see Zijing Immortal’s situation.
"Without permission, wouldn’t the entire territory come to a standstill?"
Zijing Mountain’s territory wasn’t like Qin Muye’s Endless Abyss territory, where the lord had centralized power and never delegated authority.
Unlike Qin Muye, who delegated all permissions to Black Hand, who gradually distributed them to other spirits, Qin Muye didn’t care about these matters, and the spirits had innate full loyalty, unlike Zijing Mountain, where everyone was a two-faced traitor, worshipping deities. This was something no one could withstand.
If he were to delegate authority, they might report everything to the church the moment they received it.
Then, the church would definitely come to take over. How could those popes and patriarchs possibly give up such a good thing?
"Let's just eliminate them. It’s too much trouble, and keeping them around is just a hazard." Qin Muye finally decided to let Zijing Mountain meet its end.
After all, it had no further value.
"Black Hand, prepare."
"Master, I was just about to contact you. The War God's data is experiencing significant fluctuations, and its movement direction has changed. It’s not heading toward Duke White Frost as planned, but instead, it’s turning toward Zijing Mountain's territory," Black Hand rambled on.
"I see. It’s probably due to the Three-Eyed Clan's mental network. Have all units be on alert." After hearing this, Qin Muye canceled the order to level Zijing Mountain's territory.
"Those two still have more to come. Will they release the real Cradle Plan?"
Qin Muye knew that part of the Cradle Plan had already infiltrated the Three-Eyed Clan's mental network, and the thing on the War God was most likely another part of the Cradle Plan.
He didn't know how such a contradictory situation had formed, but he was certain of one thing: the situation was becoming clearer.
Once the final secret is revealed, everything will end. No existence in this world will be able to stop Qin Muye's means.
"The only issue is, how bizarre will the Cradle Plan and any potential enemies be?"
They might not necessarily be strong, but they will definitely be bizarre, like the Endless Cycle directly restarting the world.
So, Qin Muye needed to prevent such a situation from happening.
"Black Hand, notify everyone to start the repair work on the Crystal Wall Ring World Orbital Base."
"Codename: Stellar Array!"
Qin Muye initiated the plan for a Titan-grade megastructure. The first giant construct he intended to build was called the Stellar Array, primarily functioning as a supercomputer to assist Qin Muye and all the spirits in higher-level battles, research, and learning.
Although it was just an auxiliary Titan-grade megastructure, its significance was undeniable. It would elevate the Endless Abyss to a new level.
It could also connect with the Magic Network to form a higher-level array.
Qin Muye had considered first building a combat or defensive Titan-grade megastructure, but upon further thought, this would indeed make the Endless Abyss more stable. However, given the structure and development of his territory, a supercomputer like the Stellar Array would maximize the potential of the entire territory.
His territory's foundation was built on research, and this was where its roots lay.
With the Stellar Array, all departments under his command could develop and research more effectively. Even if they couldn't match Qin Muye, they could improve their efficiency by hundreds of times, which was nearly a qualitative change.
The Stellar Array could also be upgraded, just like the Gargoyle-grade armor and the Golem-grade mechs.
Of course, the upgrade process would be quite difficult. Qin Muye was prepared to dismantle the world barrier of the Pantheon and even fill the entire Pantheon into the Stellar Array.
This was the perfect time.
After all, the Crystal Wall Ring World Orbital Base was itself a part of the Cradle Plan. Even without the need for the Stellar Array, he needed to take the initiative and take over such a significant asset.
"Yes, Master, but what about the other gods?"
"Divert all of them into the Material Plane and destroy their godly realms. Regain control of the entire Crystal Wall Ring World Orbital Base and guide the regeneration of the portals." Qin Muye thought for a moment and decided to start afresh to avoid any lingering issues, while also harvesting points and treasure chests.
"There's one more thing. Prepare all spies to return. The Material Plane has no further value."
Black Hand understood Qin Muye's meaning: all the good things had been harvested, and it was time to extract all remaining value.
Intelligence was no longer useful. Once the army advanced and carried out large-scale slaughter, they would complete the advancement tasks required for a 7th-rank territory.
Destroying the strongest forces was also included in this, and everything would come to an end.
The only condition was that no bizarre incidents occurred. Otherwise, who knew what waves might arise.
Like the Cradle Plan?
