Chapter 568: Get a Grip
Chapter 568: Get a Grip
In the newly established large-scale experimental base, Qin Muye observed the slow integration of the three supreme treasures of the GROX Empire within Wang Wei's body. Since leaving the Endless Abyss, the integration process had indeed resumed, and he was now trying to figure out the reason behind it.
It was clear that the integration process required some kind of signal or field. In the Endless Abyss, the spirits had also attempted to simulate a cosmic environment to find the cause of the halted integration, but they were unable to restore it.
"Some kind of peculiar signal source seems to be connected to something?" Qin Muye quickly discovered the issue, having observed it for some time.
"Very advanced technology, far beyond my current information technology."
Qin Muye did not consider it shameful to admit that he was not as skilled. After all, he was currently supporting the entire Endless Abyss by himself, and it was already quite an achievement to have come this far alone. The GROX Empire was a vast civilization that had developed for countless years, so it was normal for them to be stronger.
If he couldn't even admit this, how would he face ridicule without feeling embarrassed?
One must acknowledge their shortcomings and learn from them. Losing isn’t the problem; it's failing to grow that is.
Of course, being unable to accept a loss is a different matter.
Tracing the signal source, Qin Muye found that it had no origin or was perhaps ubiquitous throughout the universe, making it impossible to pinpoint.
Qin Muye was not particularly surprised, as the situation with the cosmic will had already prepared him. A civilization capable of imprisoning such a powerful entity was expected to have advanced technology.
"However, it seems to be lacking maintenance, giving off a feeling of being long neglected." Qin Muye conducted a deeper inspection of the signal source, getting a sense that it was indeed in a state of disrepair, with the signal appearing somewhat unstable.
He also discovered that to track the signal source, one needed to rely on the special field formed around the three supreme treasures of the GROX Empire during the integration process. Otherwise, once they left, it would be impossible to locate this omnipresent signal, much like a dream.
This made Qin Muye increasingly certain that the GROX Empire must have left some legacy behind, so he elevated the priority of his plans targeting the GROX Empire, placing it right below the Cuckoo Plan. This was a very high priority.
The main concern was that if the cosmic will appeared, the GROX Empire's warships might break through the world barrier, kill the cosmic will, and destroy the entire Shining Universe server.
While the possibility was low, it was still a concern.
The GROX Empire was likely destroyed, but that didn't mean everyone was dead.
The neglected signal was enough to indicate that some GROX Empire device was still operational within the Shining Universe server.
Moreover, this device was definitely related to the Star Gods, the cosmic will, and the three supreme treasures, or it wouldn’t have caused a resonance.
The cosmic will had Wang Wei take the three supreme treasures to break free, and these treasures and the device must have been a contingency plan against the cosmic will, otherwise, it would be too much of a coincidence.
The vast GROX Empire's think tank must have anticipated this situation.
"So, how do I find it?" Qin Muye felt a headache, as the signal was omnipresent and had no fixed point. He was at a loss.
For now, he could only conduct further research to see if he could discover anything. Otherwise, he would have to wait until the three supreme treasures of the GROX Empire completed their integration, which might offer a breakthrough.
However, after understanding these matters, Qin Muye was not keen on using this method. Once the integration was successful, it would mean that the GROX Empire's contingency plan had been activated.
He had no idea what this vast civilization's backup plan entailed or how it might affect his plans.
Therefore, if Qin Muye found no clues or truths before the integration was complete, he would seal the treasures and return them to the Endless Abyss to prevent any unforeseen changes to his original plan.
The variable was already significant enough, and he didn’t want any more complications.
[True Dragon Son: The Alliance of All Things has found a Star God!]
A sudden message from True Dragon Son appeared in the chat channel, making Qin Muye smile.
【: So fast, where is it?】
【True Dragon Son: The exact location is ., but it's already been captured by the Alliance of All Things. I checked, it's Level 8.】
【Grand Supreme Immortal: Then we can't kill the Star God, we can only kill the evil spirit bodies.】
【: You need to be more careful. A Level 8 Star God at the very least, are you sure you want to farm monsters instead of thinking about how to survive? Guess how my and True Dragon Son's starter server ended up gone.】
Qin Muye helpfully fanned the flames. After all, he and True Dragon Son had server transfer vouchers, so they weren't worried about the Shining Universe server being destroyed. Only Grand Supreme Immortal was bound to this universe.
【Grand Supreme Immortal: Was it because of a similar event?】
【: Pretty much. I suggest you eat whatever you want to eat quickly, or you might not get the chance later.】
Qin Muye was being honest. No matter whether this event succeeded or failed, Grand Supreme Immortal wouldn't escape death unless he obtained a server transfer voucher before dying.
But the chances of that were extremely low. He would need to kill a Star God to get a Heroic-level Golden Treasure Chest.
However, the difficulty was considerable. Killing a higher-level entity was possible up to Level 8, but the chances were negligible beyond that, unless you were someone like Qin Muye.
Now, to get a Golden Treasure Chest in the Endless Abyss, Qin Muye would have to personally capture and kill a Level 8 entity.
As the levels increased, the contents of the treasure chests seemed to improve. For example, a Golden Treasure Chest used to contain only one item at lower levels, but now it could contain five or six items.
The same applied to other treasure chests. For instance, a Silver Treasure Chest of the same level now contained items from a Level 8 server, not like the Level 6 items from the Magic Continent.
As the levels increased, the quality of the treasure chests also improved. Of course, Wooden Treasure Chests were an exception. Even Black Iron Treasure Chests could yield resources, but Wooden Treasure Chests, being the lowest tier, even with the Heroic suffix, only contained useless items.
【True Dragon Son: Indeed, even I fell for it last time. If it weren't for 's Ancient God vaccine and special medicine, I wouldn't know how I died. Even if I went back now, I might not be able to resist the Ancient God.】
【Grand Supreme Immortal: Didn't you leave the server because of the server upgrade battle?】
Grand Supreme Immortal was shocked.
【: Yes, we killed five servers, but we fled because of a limited-time event that started after a long-term event failed.】
Qin Muye added that he had been very smooth in shouting "666" back then, as he was just selling weapons to support other lords and hadn't actually been on the front lines.
【Grand Supreme Immortal: I understand, I will handle it as quickly as possible.】
Clearly, Grand Supreme Immortal realized the situation was dire. He knew the capabilities of Qin Muye and True Dragon Son, and he had heard that they came from the same starter server. However, he didn't expect them to flee not because of the server wars but because of a failed event.
Even more ridiculous was their claim that this event was similar to their previous one, implying that the two of them couldn't handle it and wanted to run away.
Running away was fine, but Grand Supreme Immortal couldn't. The two of them could run because they had server transfer vouchers, while Grand Supreme Immortal had to stick with this server.
"Phew, what a poor guy." Qin Muye quickly turned his attention back to Wang Wei, continuing to explore the origin of the signal source.
"Based on the data, Wang Wei's supreme treasures should be fully integrated within three days, giving me two extra days."
The integration process should have been faster, but environmental changes caused the signal to be misaligned, requiring recalibration. Normally, it would take only an hour to complete, not this long.
Various views and data continuously appeared in Qin Muye's eyes, all with one goal: to find out what was going on with this long-neglected signal source.
"Ah~ If only I could break through the technological bottleneck with a single command, but unfortunately, I don't have that fortune." Qin Muye was a bit helpless, wondering why he didn't have the protagonist's treatment, and even if Ji Shan shouted, it probably wouldn't work either.
