265: Chapter 265 The Gods Are Just My Cards!

"Remnants who have been fleeing for a hundred thousand years... how dare you leave that low-dimensional petri dish and deliver yourselves to my door."

A divine voice, requiring no medium to travel, exploded directly in the minds of all the Earth Expeditionary Force soldiers. Filled with playfulness and invincible arrogance, it echoed throughout the starry sky. The high-dimensional pressure contained within this voice caused tens of thousands of low-level soldiers in the fleet to bleed from their seven orifices and suffer mental collapses on the spot!

"Back then, those few ancient human insects who called themselves Ascendants didn't hesitate to detonate half a galaxy's energy just to cover the escape of this [Seed]. I thought you lowly carbon-based organisms were only fit to linger on that remote blue water ball..."

The Star Abyss Tyrant's giant eyes, resembling seas of blood, slowly turned, finally locking onto Chen Xi, who was suspended at the very front of the fleet, and the [civilization seed editor] faintly emitting light from his chest.

"I didn't expect that an ant slightly stronger than the rest would actually be born."

"However, it all ends here. Hand over the core key of the Seed, and I can bestow upon you ants... the honor of becoming a part of my body."

"Stop talking shit! You look like a stitch-monster cobbled together from space junk, and you really think you're something special?!"

Lin Shan, standing at the very front, let out a heaven-shaking roar as he slammed his dual shields upward, his [Indestructible Blood Core] burning to the limit.

"Captain! I don't care if it's a tyrant or a god, I'm going to go loosen its bones first!"

"Lin Shan! Don't be impulsive! Come back!!!" Chen Xi was pale with fright and tried to stop him, but it was already too late.

Lin Shan turned into a dark red meteor, carrying an aura of tragic determination as he charged straight toward that vast, boundless shadow.

"Heh, ignorant bug. You dare to use your pathetic low-dimensional common sense to touch the truths of the universe?"

The Star Abyss Tyrant let out a mocking cold snort. It didn't even move a single piece of star wreckage; only those giant blood-colored eyes flashed slightly.

"[Constant Tampering: Gravity Inversion]."

With just a single thought! It didn't even release any energy fluctuations!

"Buzz—!"

Within this vast star sector, the most fundamental physical laws of the universe were forcibly modified!

Lin Shan, who was originally charging toward the Tyrant, suddenly felt an irresistible, bizarre gravity—hundreds of millions of times stronger than usual—erupt simultaneously from behind him, from all directions, and even from deep within his own cells! This gravity was no longer pulling downward, but was tearing outward frantically!

"Arghhhhh—!!!"

Lin Shan let out a shrill scream. His indestructible, dark-gold shield, which could withstand even high-dimensional down-conversion rays, shattered inch by inch like fragile glass before this great power that tampered with fundamental physical rules! His demi-god body, fused with countless high-grade materials, had its bones snap one by one under the pull of the inverted gravity, and blood sprayed from every pore like a fountain!

And that wasn't all!

"[Constant Tampering: Light Speed Stagnation]."

The Star Abyss Tyrant handed down divine punishment once more.

In an instant, the light from the engines of every ship in the Earth Expeditionary Force fleet dimmed. All energy detectors, magic radars, and even the Void Lightning Su Xiaoxiao was condensing seemed to fall into an extremely viscous mire at this moment!

The speed of light was forcibly reduced by billions of times! All energy transmission was paralyzed, and the once-mighty interstellar fleet instantly turned into a pile of iron coffins floating in space! All magical elements were forcibly extracted and frozen!

Despair!

This was an absolute crushing force that went deep into the marrow, making it impossible for even the thought of resistance to arise!

Facing a monster that could knead universal constants at will, levels, equipment, skills... everything became a meaningless joke!

"Too weak. You don't even have the qualification to entertain me."

The Star Abyss Tyrant's massive shadow began to slowly advance, preparing to open its abyss-like maw composed of dark matter to swallow this fleet, the last hope of Earth, along with the Seed inside Chen Xi.

"No... we can't just die here!!!"

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes were bloodshot as she frantically squeezed her dried-up mental sea, attempting to tear through this locked void, but it was to no avail.

Before this ultimate calamity, Ye Fei's [Myriad Spirit Divine Seal] was like a firefly before the bright moon, unable to evoke any resonance at all.

"Captain... what... should we do..." Li Murou watched Lin Shan, who was nearly being torn apart by gravity, and the paralyzed fleet as despairing tears slid down her cheeks.

At this desperate moment, when the fate of all humanity was about to end and this expeditionary force carrying the hope of Earth's revival was about to be wiped out.

Chen Xi, who had remained silent, suddenly closed his eyes slowly.

He didn't look at the Tyrant nearby, nor did he pay any attention to the tampered rules around him.

In this absolute silence where even the speed of light was stagnated, he gently pressed his hand over his chest, where the [civilization seed editor] was emitting an unprecedentedly violent vibration.

"System."

Chen Xi's voice rang out with extreme calmness deep within his soul:

"Since those ancient human pioneers left this Seed of civilization on Earth, in our genes..."

"Then it shouldn't just be a system used for crafting equipment, right?"

[Ding... Detected deep resonance between Host's will and the Seed's underlying protocols...]

[Warning: Forcibly activating this permission requires carrying an extremely massive burden of civilization's Karma. There is a 99.9% probability of the Host's mental sea being completely annihilated! Continue?]

Chen Xi snapped his eyes open. In those eyes, there was no longer any wariness toward the High-dimensional Deity; instead, there was an extreme madness and tragic resolve that seemed to trample the entire universe underfoot!

"I've even printed gods as cards before, what do I care about annihilation?!"

"[civilization seed editor]..."

"Give me—[Supreme Authority: All-Humanity Will Link]!!!"

"Buzz————!!!!!"

At the moment Chen Xi issued the [Supreme Authority: All-Humanity Will Link] command, a bizarre ripple that was impossible to capture with scientific instruments and transcended the dimensions of time and space radiated outward from his heart like a supernova explosion, booming through the entire universe!

This ripple ignored the physical constants tampered with by the Star Abyss Tyrant and the stagnation of the speed of light. Within a ten-millionth of a second, it crossed the despairingly vast distance between the Sirius Sector and the Solar System, descending with unerring precision upon that azure planet!
