Chapter 486: Chapter 486
And so, humanity remained motionless.
By the fifth year, the core commanders intentionally exposed by the Thousand Alliance, after partially retreating, surprisingly paused their withdrawal.
Among the members of the Human Civilization’s council, many people’s emotions had already begun to change.
This was due to the influx of more information.
If reaching a conclusion were like solving a complex calculation problem, then as the known conditions continually change, the answer too would change continuously, just like now.
Some people looked at Shen Shi with a gaze that carried a faint sense of greater astonishment and reverence.
Although nothing was apparent yet, combining with Shen Shi’s choices, some traces were beginning to show.
In the sixth year, the Mude System had already begun to collapse on all fronts; at this time, even if the Pasture Master personally acted to destroy all these core commanders of the Thousand Alliance being used as bait now, it would still be difficult to reverse the outcome of the Mude System’s defeat in this battlefield.
By the seventh year, the Mude System seemed already beyond retrieval.
By the eighth year, the Mude System had only less than one-fifth of its original territory left, and all fleets and weaponry were being compressed, and compressed again.
In the ninth year, the Thousand Alliance seemed to have confirmed the final result. They seemed to have given up on continuing to lure the Pasture Master, and all the core personnel exposed as bait began to retreat, disappearing without a trace in a short time.
Just when many human councilors began to think that this war would end this way, drastic changes erupted suddenly.
"Detected an ultra-high level of Primordial Energy fluctuation!"
"The scale is extremely high, totally beyond the limits of our past detection!"
"This is absolutely not something any intelligent life could achieve!" For original chapters go to NovєlFіre.net
"The location is in the Thirteenth District!"
"What about the Holy Envoy we deployed there, can they report close-range observational results?"
At this moment, not only Human Civilization, including the Thousand Alliance, and even the Mude System itself, all boiled up in an instant as if everyone’s attention was focused on the Primordial Energy eruption zone.
Even Shen Shi, who had long known this event point through future explorations, began to get excited.
It’s the Pasture Master, no mistake about it!
Indeed, aggressively making a move!
This kind of power exceeded Shen Shi’s expectations.
But it was not in terms of volume.
The vast and immense volume was something predictable, after all, the Pasture Master, strictly speaking, is essentially the Master of Primordial Energy of the entire Mude System. The Primordial Energy of the vast majority of intelligent life in the entire Mude System could be concentrated on him, and under the past hundreds of thousands of years of pasturing, the volume of Primordial Energy the Pasture Master could control was indeed beyond imagination.
After all, this was such a massive accumulation.
But what truly astonished Shen Shi was that he could clearly feel that within this surging Primordial Energy, a transformation had already begun!
The Primordial Energy that Shen Shi currently possessed could no longer be called Primordial Energy; this power could directly interfere with the rules of reality to achieve certain fundamentally incomprehensible, unresearchable effects. Meanwhile, the Primordial Energy within the Pasture Master already had such a familiar feeling; maybe not reaching Shen Shi’s level yet, but coupled with that staggering volume... Shen Shi could ascertain that right now, he probably wouldn’t be able to withstand for long in front of the Pasture Master.
"There should be something else..." Shen Shi carefully sensed, and finally, his figure abruptly disappeared, "I need to make a trip, besides, you all can start acting now, take advantage of this opportunity, send out all of our preparations and attack crazily, whether it’s the Thousand Alliance or the Mude System, raid as much as possible!"
"Mr. Shen, do you mean..." some people’s emotions suddenly became agitated.
"Yes, that’s exactly what I mean, the Thousand Alliance should also be in a certain degree of chaos now; they can also be targets for looting; conversely, the remaining of the Mude System are the hardest bones, as for the specifics, adapt to circumstances, I believe in your abilities." This part of Shen Shi’s speech had been transmitted to others through the Holy Land’s communication function.
As for himself, he had already appeared at the location near the edge of the battlefield by this time.
Shen Shi wanted to use the Holy Land for rapid movement, yet he didn’t need to, like others, only allow himself to be taken away by others through trades while asleep; instead, he could directly return to the main world line and then go directly to wherever he wanted to from the main world.
This made it even more convenient.
So in the instant Shen Shi appeared, he hid himself in a unique time dimension, ensuring he wouldn’t be observed by any presence.
At least those who couldn’t control the time dimension would not be able to observe him; if the Pasture Master really could discover him, it would mean the Pasture Master had also touched the field of time; compared to such intelligence, being discovered would be a small matter.
In short, at this moment, Shen Shi was silently hidden on the battlefield.
And when he noticed the most intense part of the battlefield, he couldn’t help but get emotionally agitated.
Astonished, really astonished.
Because what he saw was not the solitary Pasture Master.
It was a legion, an enormously grand legion!
The forms of these legions were totally different from the usual understanding of warships, more like some kind of mechanical life, some even maintaining humanoid forms, with bodies and heads larger than planets, and the substantial energy kept surging along the lines on their bodies...
"Instead of technological creations, these things feel more like mysterious artifacts..." What Shen Shi imagined at this moment were not battle armors or Gundam-like things but rather a kind of existence called the Celestial God Group from fantasy works during the Earth Star Period.
Not entirely the same, of course, but the feeling they gave based on their existence format was quite close.
Just as Shen Shi said.
From a scientific perspective, whether it be warships or weapons, making them was entirely disadvantageous for combat in interstellar battlefields.
When Shen Shi saw one of the "Giants" lightly wave its hand, instantly annihilating countless Thousand Alliance warships, his mouth twitched even more.
The opponent had altered the laws of physics!
Just as Shen Shi said, the Primordial Energy he possessed could influence and even change the fundamental rules that make up the cosmos reality, not just simply manifesting, and now these legions that the Pasture Master had brought out held such abilities.
Though not as powerful as Shen Shi, they could nonetheless exhibit terrifying strength due to their massive volume.
For instance, the scene Shen Shi just witnessed.
It practically involved modifying some parameters of curvature navigation, extremely subtle, yet enough to make all warships within that area fall into a state of curvature annihilation.
With the rigor of technology, this kind of modification seemed to start from the most foundational aspect of technology, not to mention the Thousand Alliance’s warships, even if the technology level went up a few more tiers, it probably would still be hard to resist since it equates to the root of the technology tree being wrong, all parameters, all designs, all cognition, all wrong!
"So, this is the reason for the Pasture Master’s strength....." Shen Shi felt that just by getting this intelligence, he had already gained exceedingly.
He even no longer paid attention to the continuous raiding of the human fleet elsewhere, but was wholeheartedly engaged in observing this legion of the Pasture Master.
This thorough observation let him see something unimagined.
"None of them are actual entities... this energy, this structure... these things are simply the Fantasy Legion within the Consciousness World!" Had Shen Shi still been young, he might have gasped in awe at this moment.
