"Qualia-Direction?" Olavier was bewildered. "When did you become interested in Origin Species? Only a small number of physicists are curious about and study it, and basically, after thousands or tens of thousands of years, people still don't understand or know anything about it."

"It's because I have some personal needs," Li Aoz vaguely.

Olavier scratched his head. As a silicon-based life form, he had no hair; his head was just a green glass plate. Each scratch made a squeaking sound as it scratched the glass. "I'll try to find out for you. But don't get your hopes up too high. This thing Qualia-Direction 'Matter-Oriented' is even rarer than Entropy among the Origin Species, second only to the Primal Beast ' Origin ' and the Law Wraith ' Leroux '."

Thanks.

After exchanging casual pleasantries for a while, Li Aoz patted his face, suddenly losing his appetite.

The Deep Abyss Squad was attacked and killed...

This was no small matter. After recalling it, Li Aoz realized that it seemed to be a Main Quest in version 3.5.

That's about 60 or 70 years from now? It's no wonder Li Aoz can't remember.

In version 3.0, the storyline was very disorganized because players had only just established themselves in space. Furthermore, players at that time lacked the ability to dive into the Star Abyss. Many stories were simply mentioned briefly in the background.

However, this event had a significant impact, directly leading to the rise of a legendary figure.

The general story is that the family of one of the members of the Deep Abyss Squad was extremely angry because of the murder of the team members. They were also extremely disappointed by the official's vague explanation. As a small civilization with few strong individuals, they suffered heavy losses because of this incident, and a neighboring country took the opportunity to invade and wipe them out.

Then the child was enslaved by the civilization that destroyed his homeland for more than forty years, enduring and accumulating strength. Finally, he raised his arm and raised the banner of restoring his country. Because his strength was extremely great and his desire for revenge was particularly strong, the process of restoring his country was a little more intense.

Well, it really was just a bit intense, and it didn't hurt many civilians.

The problem then arose—although the Restorationists did not cause any harm, the defeated civilization used diplomatic means to cry and wail throughout the Interstellar Alliance, claiming that it had suffered an unprecedented massacre, and then slandered the other side for colluding with [society] and being anti-civilization and anti- Star Abyss.

This caused quite a stir. Upon hearing of this action, the surrounding Interstellar Civilization were immediately thrown into turmoil, dragging several star systems into the war, which lasted for nearly a hundred years. The restorers were arrested, subjected to unjust trials, and ultimately committed suicide in prison.

The truth was only revealed after several years of investigation.

The story itself is just a clichéd, dark, and cruel tale that tells people that good people will not be rewarded, but bad people will always get away with it.

However, the identity of that restorer was somewhat special.

Simply put, he is the chosen one of the Star Abyss Evil God [The Lustful Woman], and even goes further—he has fallen in love with the evil god.

Originally, the "Lustful Woman" was considered a relatively mild-mannered faction among the evil gods. However, after witnessing the wrongful killing of her pet boy and the chosen one, she instantly turned evil, rose back from the Lower Star Abyss, and began indiscriminately massacring the civilizations of the Abyss while bearing the Star Abyss's Curse.

Of course, in the end, the heroes killed the evil Goddess, saved Star Abyss, and everything returned to normal.

What a wonderful ending.

Although it's uncertain whether these two things are related... Li Aoz feels the similarities are a bit too high, so it's best to pay a little attention.

If we can prevent the tragedy from happening, it will also make the people of Souyuan more united and realize that the real enemy is "society," which will be more advantageous in the future fight against the invasion of Earthlings.

It just so happens that this Hunter's Gathering is very close to the star system of Narrative-level Civilization. We can ask about the situation there, and if it really involves "society," I believe these hunters will take it seriously.

Just as Li Aoz was finally able to continue his meal, another message popped up on his stock trading software. "The stock you purchased, A10910, Star Speed IoT, has hit its daily limit..."

Moreover, a series of messages came flooding in.

"Your His Excellency the President, an unprecedented large-scale Magic Crystal Mine has been discovered in Babul City."

"Your His Excellency the President, Maysville Company would like to discuss making a documentary with you. They are willing to pay a hefty sum to have you appear on screen..."

"Your Lord Lioz, our neighboring Verevo Kingdom wishes to discuss a marriage alliance with you. They are offering two resource planets as dowry and hope you will marry Princess Christina Verevo..."

Li Aoz was so busy that he was constantly replying to the flood of messages, and the steak in his hand had gone cold, so he didn't even have a chance to eat it.

When he had almost finished dealing with the matter, he looked back at his assets and found that they had soared to 1.45 billion Ammonium Gold.

"Is this what they call 10 times the luck...? My net worth has increased more than tenfold—well, it must be because I already own assets."

Before Li Aoz could even catch his breath, he quickly distributed the money to his subordinates in various industries, urging them to get moving and transform the funds into tangible industrial and military power.

Just as Li Aoz's income was soaring, a high-end private spaceship slowly approached and docked at the Starport on White Candle Star.

Is everything ready?

Nalia, one of the heiresses of the Verrazzi Company, put down her tablet and looked up at the armed personnel in the spaceship:

"According to intelligence, Lioz Dominate will leave White Candle Star by spaceship at 10:00 AM tomorrow. He doesn't have Private Plane, so he will definitely come to the Starport. At that time, you will need to take action."

"The demolition has been completed. Lioz's forces have been almost entirely deployed to explore the star field, and he would never have imagined that we would target him personally."

"Leaving Valenkov affected the interests of our Verrazzi Company, but compared to that, Lioz himself is more valuable, and we must bring him back."

"Yes, ma'am."

A female voice, devoid of any emotion, responded.

Nalia looked ahead.

A near-perfectly proportioned female body was encased in silver armor. Slender black snakes slithered and coiled around it, and the inverted triangular helmet opened its visor, revealing a cold and beautiful face.

It was Nefthys Cleopatra, the ' Silver Armor '.

Compared to five years ago, Nefes's strength has improved further, his aura has become more restrained, his equipment has been greatly upgraded, and he has also been equipped with the anti -Aoneng Higgs Field system.

It can be said that Nefes was the main force in this hunt for Lioz.

Seeing Nefes, Nalia couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Even her most prized trump card pales in comparison to the company's weapons of war.

"As ' Gabros,' the company's weapon of war, you should theoretically be stronger than Lioz —but in the past five years, Lioz has hardly made a move, so you should still be careful."

Nalia said coldly and seriously:

"Now, Lioz is trying to develop his own power independently, which is not in the company's interest. You must not kill Lioz; you must capture him alive and bring him back to our Fixed Time Domain. The Light Gold Priest will preach and baptize him, making him accept our Grand Narrative and ultimately assimilate him. This is the way to maximize benefits—understand?"

"Learn."

Nefes said without any emotional fluctuation:

"Capital is king."

Nalia nodded. "In the name of Red King, I offer you my blessings: may capital be above all, may exploitation last forever, and may our wealth never be devalued."
