Chapter Summaries

After an assassination killed Luo Yao but left Kahn and Ling Xi alive, the Ten Cities Alliance purged White Star and Black Eye agents, disrupting Black Eye’s efforts to divide the alliance. Black Eye’s Yan and Tong Qing decided to pressure Ximo City and test whether the other alliance factions would defend it.

The Black Eye and White Star Civilizations pressured Ximo City, but the Army Ant and other powers intervened, creating a standoff that threatened to expand into a universal war.

Chen Mo opened the Sci-Tech Library’s final door by using his time and space superpowers, then absorbed the Sci-Tech Ball and received a vast influx of information. He returned to the study out of sync with time and space, where Xiao Yu sensed him nearby before he reappeared.

Chen Mo’s unknown ability devastated the White Star Civilization’s Blue Earth Star System and destroyed Dark Matter Warehouses, while similar attacks crippled Dinan Miro’s forces.
