256: Chapter 9 The Role of Catalysts
Time passed day by day.
In the blink of an eye, only a short sixty days remained until the end of the entire universe, the arrival of the "Extinction."
This also meant that only fifty-eight days remained until Chu Zhangyang, with the enhancement of the "catalyst," reached the complete form of the Flesh and Blood Universe.
Because of this two-day time difference, Chu Xingyang hardly dared to delay for even a moment during this period.
Pre-war preparations, the training of the two demigods.
And the various stability maintenance and wartime security work between the Resistance Army of this universe and the Gospel Army of the Xingyang Civilization.
He was handling it all step by step.
Several high-ranking officials of the Xingyang Civilization looked at the busy God, feeling both grateful and incredibly sad.
Tears welled up in Yu Lan's eyes as she said to everyone, "The God of the past was so carefree."
"But now, to eliminate Chu Zhangyang and the Extinction, he is truly busy with everything, and even his smiles have become much rarer."
Solia, standing to the side, even burst into tears: "This is the first time I have seen my teacher like this. Looking from afar, I can feel that his entire demeanor is tense."
Suo Xiaoli, who had been inadvertently saved by the God in the Snow Sun Universe, was much calmer at this moment. She, who was usually playful, now wore a rare, serious expression as she comforted her "sister."
"Alright, stop crying. We have all witnessed the terror of that Extinction. You have seen how the Snow Sun Universe was completely devoured in such a short time!"
"Against such a terrifying existence, the Great Deity Xingyang naturally has to treat it seriously this time."
"After all, this enemy is not some minor character like the ones from the past!"
Hearing her words, the sad expressions of everyone eased slightly.
Only Wei Wei gazed into the distance at the blinding light coming from the Pillar of Creation outside the porthole.
She secretly broke into a cold sweat, thinking, "The Extinction is difficult to deal with..."
"But there is still a challenge before that: to hold off the complete form of Chu Zhangyang within two days and protect the Milky Way Galaxy!"
"Actually, although the catalyst was developed together by the God and many scientists of the Xingyang Civilization,"
"the Great Deity Xingyang and our scientists cannot calculate exactly how much of an enhancement it provides!"
"The God only said that he cannot defeat the complete form of Chu Zhangyang, after all, that is an existence that can turn the entire 90-billion-light-year universe into a flexible, usable flesh and blood body!"
Hearing this, Yu Lan's eyes widened instantly, and for a moment, she forgot to close her mouth.
After a long while, she said loudly, "Ah! Is that catalyst that strong? Then why did we send it to that Chu Zhangyang!"
"Isn't this just making trouble for ourselves?"
Her confusion was normal; after all, as military personnel, she naturally did not participate in the development and research of the "catalyst."
However, since it was the God who ordered it to be sent at the time, she naturally had no reason to refuse.
Originally, Yu Lan thought that the "catalyst" was some kind of slow-acting poison or medicine that could kill Chu Zhangyang.
But now she gradually realized that that thing could truly bring a massive enhancement to Chu Zhangyang.
Amidst her confusion,
Wei Wei had to patiently explain, "It's not that I kept it secret from you; after all, you are someone who only understands combat, not a scientist, and you don't have medical and genetic technology skills like I do!"
"So, it is normal that you don't know the true purpose of the catalyst!"
"It is also quite troublesome to explain. In short, that thing is indeed purely for strengthening Chu Zhangyang. But... it was not made solely for him!"
The more everyone listened, the more confused they became.
Wei Wei made a mysterious expression, "In short, you will know when the time comes."
Yu Lan opened her mouth, wanting to ask clearly what she was up to. But she was afraid that this most brilliant doctor and geneticist of the Xingyang Civilization would spout some obscure and difficult-to-understand knowledge.
So, in the end, she gave up her attempt to get to the bottom of it.
She just showed a confident expression to everyone, "Then that's no problem. Since it is our Wei Wei who led the scientists to complete the catalyst under the guidance of the God, the effect must be fine."
Wei Wei blushed with embarrassment from the praise.
But a moment later, she revealed a self-reproachful expression and said with slight annoyance, "It's just a pity that we couldn't accurately calculate the time for Chu Zhangyang to reach the complete form, causing the Great Deity Xingyang to have to hold him back with all his might for two whole days."
"The God clearly instructed that as long as Chu Zhangyang obtained the complete Flesh and Blood Universe at the moment before the Extinction arrived, it would be fine."
"But now, a full two-day gap has been left!"
Everyone looked at Wei Wei's extremely sad face.
They stepped forward to comfort her.
"You have done well enough, don't think too much. That was the deployment of a catalyst across a full 90 billion light-years!"
"The factory efficiency of the Zhangyang Civilization, the cycle of deployment and injection... and so on, it required too many and too great considerations. You don't need to blame yourself too much!"
"Hope" and Xiliu, who were nearby, looked at each other and also stepped forward to console her, "Exactly."
"Besides, the massive amount of calculation involved was something we two artificial intelligences led the many supercomputers of the Silver Core Alliance to calculate together."
"If you blame yourself, doesn't that mean the calculations of us artificial intelligences are also wrong?"
Hearing this, Wei Wei immediately put away her sad expression and shook her head repeatedly, "No, no!"
"You are not wrong! Your calculations were all based on the data I provided; if there is a mistake, it is my fault."
Xiliu smiled and said, "Alright, don't blame yourself anymore."
"It's just two days. The Great Deity Xingyang will definitely be able to find a way! Besides, there is also the help of the two demigods."
His words seemed to remind everyone instantly.
Everyone turned their gaze toward the distant Pillar of Creation.
Although it was only five light-years long, it was merely a drop in the ocean compared to the volume of the entire Milky Way Galaxy.
But because it became the training ground for the Great Deity Xingyang and the two demigods, it instantly became the most dazzling attraction in the entire Milky Way Galaxy and even the entire universe.
Countless colorful, brilliant, and dazzling energies gushed out in all directions.
Shining on the faces of every living being in the Milky Way Galaxy who looked up at the starry sky.
Even the Flesh and Blood Universe of the Zhangyang God outside the Milky Way Galaxy could clearly feel it.
