Chapter 558: Taking Advantage of the Situation
Chapter 558: Taking Advantage of the Situation
"Even with the favor of the universe, he would have been a legendary figure. Unfortunately, he met his demise halfway." Qin Muye looked at Wang Wei with a touch of nostalgia.
The other party was now useless, completely abandoned.
The reason for his success was that the will of the universe needed him to retrieve the unique protective force field formed by the three supreme treasures of the GROX Empire.
From the moment the Staff of Life was taken, the situation was already irreversible.
Of course, even if Wang Wei knew all this, he would probably still have done it.
A nameless, low-level mercenary who could die at any moment versus a powerful transcendental being standing at the pinnacle of the cosmic pyramid—everyone would know which to choose.
He already knew he was a reborn individual; how could he possibly be willing to give up such opportunities?
"I wonder what these three items will fuse into."
Qin Muye could only see a large amount of data continuously intersecting and evolving within the other party's body, clearly indicating that it would take some time to fully form.
If he wasn't worried about potential issues if he extracted them now, Qin Muye would have acted already.
"Three divine artifacts fused into one; if this were to be made into a territory trait, it would definitely be extraordinary. Unfortunately, Wang Wei no longer has the favor of the universe. If he still had it, combining it with the territory trait would certainly result in the top-tier category."
From the beginning, Qin Muye had planned to turn Wang Wei and the three supreme treasures into a territory trait once Wang Wei obtained them. Although the most valuable favor of the universe talent is now gone, it is truly a pity.
In Qin Muye's eyes, the most precious thing about Wang Wei was not the three legacies of the GROX Empire but the favor of the universe talent he possessed.
Without this talent, how could he have risen from a low-level person in the unclaimed lands to his current status in such a short time? By his effort? Qin Muye did not deny this, but without the favor of the universe talent, his greatest effort would likely have ended as a corpse in a gutter.
The memory of rebirth itself is a result of the favor of the universe talent. Without this talent, even if he were to come out after a hundred years, he would still be just a struggling ordinary person.
"But it's fine. The favor of the universe is gone, but the will of the universe can be used as a substitute."
Qin Muye casually sealed Wang Wei and injected him with sufficient nutrients and sedatives to ensure he wouldn't die or wake up.
Now without the favor of the universe, Wang Wei couldn't run even if he wanted to. Even if he had some means, it would be useless, suppressed by the entire Endless Abyss. Whether it's the protagonist's aura or the favor of the universe, neither would work here.
Once you're in, don't think about getting out.
As for the other legacies of the GROX Empire, Qin Muye had already arranged for other spirits to retrieve them. He just needed to wait for the Staff of Life, Eternal Scepter, and Galactic Cube to fully fuse within Wang Wei's body before performing the extraction surgery.
"Now that the protagonist's matters are temporarily concluded, the Civilizational Son experimental weapon is also nearing completion. The remaining task is to manufacture it."
Qin Muye took out the design blueprint. The Civilizational Son weapon is not a small device; Qin Muye is using an entire planet to create it, and construction is currently underway.
There are not many spirits, only about ten thousand in total, but their efficiency is very high. It will take at most three to five days to complete, with the main challenges being surface clearance and construction.
The planet serves as a carrier, after all. Since it's a civilization, it needs a certain level of sophistication to carry anything significant.
Once the construction is complete, the Civilizational Son will also be ready to mature.
In addition, the investigation of the GROX Empire's ring world is proceeding simultaneously. After partial activation, various knowledge and intelligence have been obtained.
Unfortunately, it seems to have been used as a prison, so its capabilities are extremely limited, mostly focusing on the analysis of various equipment in the ring world.
Qin Muye was reviewing the construction design when he suddenly sensed something.
【Tianmoshen: I saw a planet come to life and attack me. Who can save me, and I will reward you generously.】
"..." "This poor guy is truly unfortunate, encountering a Star God head-on."
"I remember this guy wanders the universe as a pirate, plundering everywhere. This must be a case of retribution."
Qin Muye soon sensed the situation.
The other party was speeding through an abandoned resource star system, with a massive planet relentlessly pursuing them. Judging by the state of the other party's spaceship, it was likely that they were suddenly attacked while making repairs, but Qin Muye suspected that the planet had unexpectedly come to life, catching them off guard.
【: All divine artifacts, I will save your life.】
Seeing this, Qin Muye naturally chose to take advantage of the situation. Why would he selflessly save the other party?
【Tianmoshen: You are taking advantage of the situation!】
【: Yes, given your current situation, the GROX Empire won't be able to save you in time. So, only I can save you. Or do you think the divine artifacts are more important than your life?】
Firstly, due to the Star God, all the cosmic parameters in the area where Tianmoshen was located were in chaos, making it impossible to call for help. The only way to communicate was through the Lord Era channel.
However, it was his own fault for choosing to repair his ship in an abandoned resource star system. Generally, no one would pay attention to such desolate areas, especially ones that had been hollowed out.
Most factions wouldn't focus on such areas. If it were closer to a space civilization, an 8th-rank Transcendent would definitely notice something amiss, but whether they would investigate was another matter.
After all, such peculiar occurrences happen in the universe every day. The universe isn't a stagnant pool, and various disasters occur from time to time.
Disasters in such regions generally don't spread, so no one would bother with them.
【Tianmoshen: Zhenlong Tianzi, Taishang Zhenren, please help me send a message to the GROX Empire. Once I escape this predicament, I will certainly bring rich gifts as thanks.】
Tianmoshen wasn't foolish and definitely wouldn't agree to Qin Muye's demands. These were divine artifacts, not cabbages. If someone could just inform the GROX Empire, they would surely send help. Why let Qin Muye do it?
But the chat channel remained silent. Zhenlong Tianzi and Taishang Zhenren completely ignored Tianmoshen. This guy was already quite detestable, raiding everywhere and even attacking them.
Lipuanchilanh? It didn't apply. Zhenlong Tianzi had a server transfer voucher, allowing him to sit back and watch.
Taishang Zhenren was a high-ranking member of the Holy Saints Sect, valued by many. Unlike Tianmoshen, who was just a lackey of the GROX Empire, he had no reason to risk offending Qin Muye.
Zhenlong Tianzi and Tianmoshen might not know, but as a direct disciple, Taishang Zhenren had obtained Qin Muye's public information from the Holy Saints Sect. If he offended Qin Muye for no reason, the Holy Saints Sect might very well abandon him.
If he were an 8th-rank, he wouldn't be afraid, but as a 7th-rank, he didn't have that kind of clout. There were tens of thousands of people like him in the Holy Saints Sect, and the competition was already intense. If he made a mistake, he would be in serious trouble.
Zhenlong Tianzi also watched coldly. His feelings towards Tianmoshen were far worse than towards Qin Muye, and besides, this matter had no conflict of interest for him.
Even if Qin Muye obtained Tianmoshen's divine artifacts, it wouldn't make much of a difference. After all, his units already had two divine artifacts each. What difference would one more make?
【Tianmoshen: Three divine artifacts, I will give you three divine artifacts.】
【: Do you think it's a good idea to threaten me with your life? That's a Star God, though just born, it has already reached the 8th rank. Once it grows a bit more, do you think your small ship can withstand it?】
Qin Muye responded instantly. For others, divine artifacts were just treasures, but for Qin Muye, they meant a new layer of the Endless Abyss and a powerful territory trait.
The other party remained silent for a long time, and Qin Muye sensed that the Star God had caught up to them, and they were currently struggling. No, they were being thoroughly beaten.
With that small frame, struggling was out of the question; they were only getting beaten.
Saving him was out of the question unless he really agreed. If he agreed and then went back on his word, it would be simple. The Star God could kill Tianmoshen, and so could Qin Muye.
The reason he was still keeping these lords around was that they were hard to deal with, each having their own background. Killing them would create conflicts with the native factions. Tianmoshen's status was slightly special, being a white glove, but how could he compare to Zhenlong Tianzi, a member of the Alliance of All Things, or Taishang Zhenren, a direct disciple of the Holy Saints Sect?
【Tianmoshen: I will give them to you, all the divine artifacts. Come quickly!!!】
