It wasn't until later, when I became Secretary-General Liu Yumeng's assistant, that I vaguely learned that my senior had gone into space.
Space...
Senior Su Xi is so powerful that she can go to space!
That was my thought at the time.
After learning that her senior was alright, Nan Shuang felt relieved. However, she was then preoccupied with heavy realities and couldn't focus on her senior's affairs. Even when her senior returned recently, she didn't have time to meet her.
There's no way around it, people are already in the game world. People in real life wish they could do the work of three people. Nan Shuang has suspected several times that this level-up event is just to make their levels higher so they won't die suddenly in real life.
However, despite being busy, I heard that the R&D department is preparing to use something called a limited Intelligent Lifeform. I heard that with that thing, their workload will be greatly reduced.
Moreover, they said that the research and development data were transmitted back from space by Senior Sister Su Xi.
As Nan Shuang watched the people appearing on the live stream screen, she felt a little dazed, recalling her life over the past year or so.
I was also wondering where my senior had gone in space, and why she had become so strong after returning, bringing back so much strange data.
All eyes in the conference room were focused on Su Xi's battlefield; everyone was shocked by Su Xi's destructive power.
"If Su Xi's destructive power were in space, would she be considered one of the most destructive?" someone suddenly asked.
"I feel that if compared to the creator, she is probably very powerful. Don't forget that she also has several incarnations with extremely exaggerated abilities."
Mr. Xia said in a deep voice, "Our understanding of the starry sky is too limited. We shouldn't make hasty judgments. However, it seems that the starry sky society is far more wondrous than we imagine. Su Xi has probably had many adventures in the starry sky."
A year ago, Su Xi was powerful enough to them, unshakeable in her strength, but her power had an end in sight. Now, a year later, Su Xi's power has no end in sight.
She could easily kill any monsters that appeared in the arena. In the Meta World, probably only the Seven Evil God were stronger than Su Xi.
The starry sky.
A fleet traveling under shaded conditions.
As the captain of this covert operation, Ling Yueban had only been asleep for a short time before being awakened again.
Space travel is an extremely boring thing, especially for those of them who need to operate covertly. Their information systems can only connect to the Homestar's communication center, and they are not allowed to connect to other places. Under such circumstances, only sleep can help them resist the loneliness brought by the voyage.
The staff in charge of the Homestar's communication system quickly woke Ling Yueban up. As the staff spoke rapidly, Ling Yueban's initial dissatisfaction at being woken up gradually turned into astonishment.
"How is that possible..."
Ling Yueban suddenly sat up. Nutrient solution from the sleep pod kept dripping from his body, but he didn't bother to clean it up. He quickly left the sleep pod and went to the communications room.
One of the staff members who was still communicating with the Homestar said with a very grim expression, "The Lord of Calamity has changed its course and is heading towards the Eart3pi Planet. If no one stops it, it will reach the SolSys313 System within two years."
Bang!
A fist-sized dent was punched into the wall of the communications room, and Ling Yueban's face was terribly dark.
How is that possible? Before setting off, the Homestar calculated that the probability of an error during this voyage was less than 0.01%. Why are errors occurring so frequently now?
"Did the Homestar's system provide a flawed explanation?"
"Not at the moment..."
"Forget it, get out of here!" Ling Yueban shoved the staff member aside, picked up the communicator, and asked impatiently, "The Lord of Calamity is heading towards Eart3pi Planet. Have you received any information within the Myriad Stars Society? Is it possible that the Myriad Stars Society discovered anything special about Eart3pi Planet?"
"Commander Ling Yueban, please don't be anxious. We all know the importance of Eart3pi Planet. We have already reported these matters to the Supreme Center. Currently, the people at the Supreme Center are still investigating the situation. As for the issue you are worried about, it seems that the Myriad Stars Society has not yet discovered the special characteristics of Eart3pi Planet."
Hearing this, Commander Ling Yueban calmed down a bit. Once the Myriad Stars Society finds out that there is Creation-level Deity on Eart3pi Planet, then their Ubite Star will never have another chance to come into contact with that god.
"What do we need to do next?"
"Maintain navigation, and while maintaining camouflage, accelerate forward. If the Lord of Calamity does indeed eventually reach the SolSys313 System, attack the Lord of Calamity to force it to turn back. This is the current order from the Supreme Center."
"Attack... Once we attack the Lord of Calamity, the Myriad Stars Society take notice of us. What will happen to the gods on Earth3pi?"
After being noticed by the Myriad Stars Society, Ling Yueban dared not go to Earth3pi again, otherwise her abnormality would definitely be noticed.
"If that really happens, you should have the Lord of Calamity turn around and then leave. The Supreme Center is still figuring out how to deal with Earth3pi."
The people at the communications center also knew that once the spaceship had launched an attack, it would be impossible to hide again and they would have to leave, so they did not ask Ling Yueban to continue the mission.
"Good."
After hanging up the communicator, Ling Yueban returned to the command room and woke up all the staff, "Activate the camouflage, spray the paint from the Siren System, and accelerate forward!"
Siren System did not join the Myriad Stars Society, it was naturally a thorn in Myriad Stars Society side. By disguising itself as Siren System ship and attacking the Lord of Calamity, no one in the Myriad Stars Society would notice anything amiss; at most, they would only laugh at the Siren fleet's overestimation of its own strength.
After stopping her magic, Su Xi looked around.
One-fifth of the giant's territory was blasted into craters by his magic, and most of the giants that were attracted there were killed, leaving only traces of the battle and dropped items.
These are all useless items, not even legendary level. Let Fu Bufu pick them up.
Return to the player's camp.
"Your Highness Su, you are amazing!"
Unable to keep up with Su Xi's speed, the group of players returned to their camp after killing the surrounding giants, while Fu Bufu, Yan Huling, and others waited for Su Xi to return on the city wall.
"It's alright, I was just testing the power of the skill," Su Xi said casually.
After testing the power of the skill this time, there's no need to waste it next time, since the [Mobile Library] skill is quite difficult to obtain.
"Then I'm relieved. We can easily win the battle against the Giant King's Court without even having to lift a finger," Fu Bufu said happily.
With Su Xi by his side to help, Fu Bufu felt like he had a cheat code. He didn't need to expend any resources; he could just follow behind His Your Highness Su and pick up the items.
When the other players learned that Su Xi had returned, they cheered below the city wall.
Su Xi clearly felt that the speed of collecting faith had increased significantly, and she was quite pleased.
Then he said, "Winning without lifting a finger is no problem, but you'll have to pay me the Gold Coin."
Prices in the Meta World are rising too fast. Kurumi savings are not enough to last long. Just by practicing a few skills on the [Mobile Library], she has spent millions of Gold Coin. Who can stand that?
The main problem is that the price of ore has risen too fast. When we were teleported to the stars, Epic Ore was priced at around 300 Gold Coin, but now it's 1300 Gold Coin a piece.
The Legendary Ore needed to farm the [Mobile Library] now costs 600 Gold Coin per piece, a 13-fold increase.
My equipment hasn't been upgraded yet... I don't even know how many Gold Coin it will cost in the end.
This is all due to the butterfly effect.
Fewer players died in the monster horde than in the previous life, so more players are active in the Meta World. With more people, there will be internal competition, and once that happens, money becomes worthless.
