Gods Beyond the Asian Continent

"Mr. Su, that's all the intelligence we have about Dongli Cang." Wang Shouye's voice was a little hoarse, and he coughed lightly.

"Furthermore... on behalf of the Great Yong, I may venture to ask, do you... possess the ability to take people away from this world? The imperial court is willing to pay any price."

"No. My ability to travel between worlds is solely due to my own unique abilities," Su Luo resolutely refused.

"Well!"

Wang Shouye took out a uniquely shaped black USB flash drive with a military-grade encrypted interface from his inner pocket, plugged it into the device, pulled up the video, and projected it onto the big screen.

"These are images transmitted back about a week ago by our few remaining operational geostationary satellites before we lost contact," Wang Shouye said in a low voice. "This section, location: Oceania."

Su Luo turned her gaze to the screen.

It was no longer a city, no longer mountains and rivers, but some kind of living end that transcended the limits of human understanding.

What blotted out the sky was a writhing, living hell that defies description.

The murky black and scarlet twisted and intertwined, forming a huge, undulating, pulsating carpet of flesh, its surface inlaid and adhered with countless unidentifiable biological remains.

Giant ship-like skeletons, twisted and mutated carapaces, and limbs that could be vaguely discerned as humanoid... everything was enveloped and merged by a dark red, almost black, translucent gelatinous substance, covering the entire continent as far as the eye could see.

"This is absolutely beyond our capabilities. Dongli Cang claims to have reached SSS Rank, but based on the live stream footage, we estimated his strength and found that he would be instantly killed by something like this."

Do you know what this is?

"This section is the west coast of the Mold Country."

A colossal tree, so enormous it caused physical discomfort, tore through the earth and pierced the sky. Its "trunk" was formed by countless twisted, writhing, and still frantically multiplying dark red fleshy pillars and pale giant bones spiraling together. Its height easily broke through the stratosphere, and its peak was immeasurable.

Its "canopy" is even more terrifying; instead of branches and leaves, it consists of countless wildly dancing, enormous creatures resembling giant tentacles or mutated blood vessels. These creatures tear at the clouds, as if weaving the entire sky into a living, pulsating net.

Its roots are clearly no longer deeply embedded in the earth, but have replaced it. At the edge of the picture, where there should have been mountains, only a few huge, slowly pulsating "roots" comparable in size to mountains arch out of the ground and meander into the distance. The river is forced to change course and flows along these fleshy ravines, but is stained with an ominous phosphorescent, viscous purplish-black color.

Before this absolute, domineering, and blasphemous behemoth, everything that human civilization is proud of seems ridiculously insignificant, not even worthy of being its backdrop.

Su Luo was stunned. What the hell was this? It was too sudden!

Pressure!

Are they available elsewhere?

"Yes, similar terrifying monsters exist in all places besides the Asian Continent where humanity has been completely wiped out: fungal carpets covering the seas, fleshy spiders weaving the sky, and even near-Earth orbit..."

To Su Luo's surprise, this incredible substance did not cause significant damage to the global climate and environment.

"Then how come we're still alive?" Su Luo asked directly.

"They proliferated explosively in a very short time, and then... entered a relatively static state, without attacking any areas inhabited by humans."

After speaking, the two fell silent.

After a moment of contemplation, Su Luo slowly raised her head.

"The restrictions have been lifted... The Aberration Energy within the Mutated Beasts was already extremely strange, only absorbing the bio-energy converted from the Mutated Beasts' bodies, which was inherently illogical. In other places, the 'restrictions' were lifted after humanity's extinction..."

Where does the energy for the growth of these colossal creatures come from?

From the dawn of life until now, the energy contained in all the living organisms that have ever existed on this planet has not been enough to supply that giant tree of flesh and blood that supports the sky.

Enveloped by Aberration Energy, a certain "restriction" was lifted, and its roots penetrated deep into the Earth's core, drawing energy from the planet and transforming it into Aberration Energy.

Exaggerate.

Su Luo began to check her Spell to see if it could support her survival in outer space.

"Alright, Mr. Su, you understand the situation. Next, I will return to support the Imperial Capital. From now on, His Highness Di Yubing will be fully responsible for handling all your affairs in Hudu."

After chatting for a while longer, Wang Shouye took the initiative to end the conversation.

"Looks like you're in a hurry? The Beast Tide has arrived?" Su Luo raised an eyebrow.

"I'll live one day at a time," Wang Shouye said calmly.

If such terrifying beings exist elsewhere, and the extinction of humanity is inevitable, why would the Great Yong provide Su Luo with experimental conditions?

"You want me to help you defend the city?" Su Luo asked.

Since the external terror remains unchanged, the threat lies with the Beast Tide. The longer Hudu its city, the less pressure the Imperial Capital will face.

Wang Shouye shook his head. "No, Mr. Su, we only have one request: if possible, please protect His Highness."

Su Luo nodded, deciding to just run away when the time came.

There's clearly a problem.

Your Great Yong left the princess in Hudu, clearly intending to use Di Yubing to attract Dongli Cang and restrain the Beast Tide.

Since we've already done all this, why bother with Su Luo protecting us?

After seeing Wang Shouye off, Su Luo locked herself in the Laboratory and continued dissecting corpses, studying their structure and energy.

Su Luo manipulated her Divine Power, Jingjing observing the "Aberration Energy."

It is not very active; within an organism, it merely maintains basic activity, instinctively absorbing energy to multiply itself and strengthen the organism to obtain more energy.

Upon further examination of the images left behind by Wang Shouye, Su Luo concluded that this was the true power of this "Aberration Energy"—absorbing external energy and undergoing endless Mutation.

After inspecting the stable Mana Conversion Device, Su Luo had her assistant move the Laboratory to the underground level.

When high-level Superpowers awaken in this world, unusual phenomena will occur. During this process, Mutated Beasts will be attracted and attack the Superpower Awakened.

At the same time, the Mutated Beasts have an extreme craving for Superpower, and their strength increases greatly after consuming Superpower.

Furthermore, consider the potential limitations of "Aberration Energy".

Su Luo believes that "Aberration Energy" may not currently be limited to "being unable to absorb energy other than bioenergy," but rather to "being unable to absorb thermal energy, Sun, electrical energy, and other forms of energy."

The restrictors did not stipulate that there could only be one input energy path, but instead prohibited conventional energy paths.

When those with Superpowers use their Superpower, the special energy supplied by the orbs of light in their souls, "Aberration Energy," can also be absorbed.

So, what about Mana?

Having just created Mana Conversion Device and having no immediate shortage of Mana, Su Luo decided to begin experimenting.
