After the incident on the Invisible Continent of the Myriad Stars Society, retaliation arrived the very next day. The leaders of the affected civilizations that participated in the attack on the Invisible Continent were assassinated within a few days, with an assassination success rate of over 50%.
In other words, if there were a thousand affected civilizations involved in this operation, then at least 500 civilization leaders would have died in this assassination attempt.
When these messages were released, Starry Sky Network was in an uproar.
It's obvious who did it.
Moreover, if it weren't for Nymph's reminder, the success rate of this assassination would have been even higher.
Su Xi sighed, "The Myriad Stars Society really doesn't hold grudges overnight. In just a few days, they've killed so many leaders of civilizations. If they hadn't been afraid to kill people in the Silver Vortex Center, those civilization representatives probably wouldn't have fared much better."
"It's normal. In the eyes of the Myriad Stars Society, the resistance of the disaster-stricken civilizations is like insects showing off to them. Any organization with a reputation would not tolerate such behavior. However, I did not expect the Myriad Stars Society's retaliation to come so quickly and so ruthlessly."
Nymph frowned.
"Furthermore, I feel the reaction at the Silver Vortex Center is quite strange..."
"If you're suggesting that Silver Vortex Center and Myriad Stars Society some kind of shady dealings, I haven't found any evidence of them working together online. Besides, while the court verdict is unsatisfactory, it was still based on the law..."
"In the past few days, the affected civilization Myriad Stars Society. The Silver Vortex Center has arrested and sentenced those who should be arrested, without favoring the Myriad Stars Society."
"Another point is that the Silver Vortex Center clearly knew that Myriad Stars Society was researching the Lord of Calamity, so why did they pretend to be deaf and dumb... allowing the Lord of Calamity to destroy their territory..."
As Su Xi listened to Nymph's analysis, her sense of the strangeness of the Silver Vortex Center also grew.
As the master of the Silver Vortex Galaxy, why doesn't the Lord of Silver Vortex stop the research of the Myriad Stars Society?
The Star Lord Lifeform and the Energy Devourer are troublesome life forms on their own, let alone when they are combined.
Even assuming the Lord of Silver Vortex doesn't understand the power of this synthetic monster and underestimates it, shouldn't the Lord of Calamity, who has already destroyed so many civilizations, step forward to eliminate him?
Instead of simply giving a casual remark and letting Myriad Stars Society handle it on its own.
Su Xi added, "Actually, I have another feeling. Although the Silver Vortex Center prohibits the opening of wormholes and the establishment of the Flowing Silver Blue Teleportation Device indirectly helped Earth Civilization, don't you think this teleportation device also limited the development of interstellar society?"
"In any case, researching technologies such as space folding, wormholes, and teleportation is more promising than researching speed."
Since their memories are the same, even if their thinking changes, there won't be much difference.
Therefore, Su Xi and Nymph both found the Silver Vortex Center's reaction to this matter to be very strange.
However, they lacked many clues to figure out these issues in a short time. Even if Su Xi became Remilia and observed the fate of the Lord of Silver Vortex, it was still a bunch of abstract paintings that she couldn't understand at all.
After canceling her avatar state, Su Xi said, "Let's talk about the Lord of Silver Vortex later. Right now, it's about the Myriad Stars Society. I'm going to the Sen Star Cluster in the next few days. Iksil is about to descend, and I need to reclaim my body."
While Ghost State is convenient, it also presents many problems.
For example, when she wants to pick up Su Yu, she has to concentrate her magic on the outside of her skin in order to touch Su Yu. The same applies when shaking hands with others; otherwise, the other person will pass directly through her soul and startle them.
Nymph pondered, "Wait a minute. After the last conflict between Kexia and the Myriad Stars Society, the Lord of Silver Vortex mediated. This time, the conflict between the Myriad Stars Society and the lower civilizations is escalating. If it escalates to a certain point and the Lord of Silver Vortex mediates again, will this chaos subside?"
"Hehe, don't worry. If the Lord of Silver Vortex intervenes, you can turn the data from the genetic research report that the Silver Vortex Center possesses into a Star Domain Chain, and then send it to the affected civilizations when they mediate," Su Xi said with a smile.
Although there was no evidence of collusion between the Silver Vortex Center and the Myriad Stars Society, the Silver Vortex Center already knew that the Myriad Stars Society would produce such a thing. Once the affected civilizations found out, they would automatically assume that the Silver Vortex Center had colluded with the Myriad Stars Society.
Back then, if mud got into your pants, even if it wasn't poop, it would still look like poop.
Mediation?
Turn around and make a mess of everything!
Nymph exclaimed, "Your plan is really something else, like an old sow wearing a bra, one set after another."
The Myriad Stars Society, the center of a centralized authority.
The leader of the Star Eclipse Civilization: "In any case, it is a fact that our network has been hacked so badly that we have nothing left, Erdun (the leader of the Gan Yuan Civilization), you are responsible for this."
The Gan Yuan Civilization was responsible for the internal network security of the entire Myriad Stars Society. Now, the incident on the Mechanical Continent made them realize that this enemy, who was secretly stirring things up, possessed extremely advanced information technology, and even the Gan Yuan Civilization could not track down the other party's whereabouts.
Therefore, they have now turned off most of the floating eye monitors, and the Myriad Stars Society's dedicated network has been disconnected, entering a state where only physical connections are possible.
The leader of the Gan Yuan Civilization frowned, suppressing his agitation, and said, "Our civilization is willing to make part of the compensation for the losses of the Myriad Stars Society. What follows is not a defense of our civilization, but a thought."
"As you know, our civilization's information technology allows the other side to enter and exit our network as if it were empty. Their capabilities are probably beyond our imagination. Even our civilization believes that the Silver Vortex Center cannot achieve this."
The Yu Qing Leader regained his senses. "You mean the other side has mastered the Information State Law?"
The leader of the Gan Yuan Civilization nodded heavily.
"But currently, there are only a few gods in the Silver Spiral Starry Sky who have mastered the laws of Information State Law, and they are concentrated in the Mechanical Civilization in the ruined star field. We have always cooperated with Intelligent Lifeform Civilization and have never targeted Mechanical Civilization. What is their reason for attacking us?" the Star Eclipse Leader asked curiously.
The Myriad Stars Society has never offended the three major virtual civilizations: the Information Lifeform Civilization, the Intelligent Lifeform Civilization, and the Mechanical Civilization. How could they possibly be targeted by them for no reason?
Moreover, it was the Intelligent Lifeform Civilization that had been helping to suppress the negative buzz surrounding the Myriad Stars Society within the Starry Sky Network.
This idea of the leader of the Gan Yuan Civilization seems rather unreasonable.
"It could be a newly born information-state deity, or it could be a newly created Information State Law..."
Hearing what the Gan Yuan Civilization said, the Star Eclipse Leader and the Yu Qing Leader smiled helplessly. It wasn't that they were arrogant, but rather that all the civilizations they had persecuted would actively try to prevent the birth of a god if such a situation occurred, using viruses, fake natural disasters, out-of-control weapons, and so on to destroy the other civilization.
This is how the once-powerful Konhard (corpse) civilization perished.
Therefore, if a new informational deity is born from a civilization that has not been persecuted by them, what would be their motive for doing so, to offend a powerful enemy for their own civilization?
This is a very natural and normal thought.
If the newly born information-state deities of this civilization are said to be very righteous and very saintly, then it can only be said that they are unlucky.
The Star Eclipse Leader said, "Since this is an idea that your civilization came up with, then the task of finding the mastermind behind it all is left to you."
As long as the Gan Yuan Civilization is willing to pay some price and obtain the help of the Mechanical Civilization, it will not be difficult to find out whether the mastermind behind this is an information-state deity.
After a pause, the Star Eclipse Leader continued, "The affected civilizations have now united and formed a stronger alliance. It seems that our assassination attempt did not intimidate them, but instead aroused their unity."
The Gan Yuan Leader, "The unity of ants is laughable and there's no need to worry."
The Star Eclipse Leader shook his head. "I think so too, but the problem now is that the second piece of evidence they provided as the prosecution is very unfavorable to us. Moreover, as a member of our organization, Scorpion Black Star has revealed very powerful information. If the Silver Vortex Court accepts that evidence, we estimate we will suffer two major blows: one from the Lord of Calamity, and one from the mission activities Scorpion Black Star carried out for us..."
The things that Scorpion Black Star did for the Myriad Stars Society were no less heinous than those of the Lord of Calamity. If both are taken together, the Silver Vortex Court may impose a very severe punishment.
Yu Qing Leader sighed. He was the last person Leader Scorpion Black Star contacted. If he hadn't ignored that message, Scorpion Black Star probably wouldn't have created this star chain that was detrimental to the Myriad Stars Society.
Therefore, in order to make up for this mistake, he could only step forward and say, "I will handle the matter with the Lord of Silver Vortex. I will postpone the court's verdict. As for the affected civilization and the fifth Energy Devouring Dragon, you are the ones who need to deal with them."
The Star Eclipse Leader agreed without question, but he and the Gan Yuan Leader still looked at him with surprise.
Because neither of them could have imagined that the Yu Qing Leader was so confident in influencing the decisions of the Silver Vortex Center.
Faced with the two people's surprised yet questioning gazes, the Yu Qing Leader remained silent.
He dared not reveal this information casually.
Once revealed, the punishment might not come from a small court, but from the destructive power of another dimension.
Sen Star Cluster, within the star tree.
"The incarnation is complete?"
Su Xi returned to the Star Tree and looked at her own body and Iksil beside her through the emerald green crystal.
If Iksil could descend into reality, she would have one more helper. The [Gate of Reality] project has been delayed for a long time, and Su Xi is eager to have Iksil come out and help her solidify this portal.
Players and leaders on Earth who aspire to reach the stars have been waiting for this moment for an unknown amount of time.
Iksil nodded. "It took a lot of time to adapt to the laws of the Yuan Yi. Now you should return to your body."
Su Xi did as instructed, canceling the [Ghost State] skill and returning to her body.
The senses, which had become somewhat hazy due to the Ghost State, were fully awakened the moment they returned to the body.
The emerald green crystals shimmered and entered Su Xi's body.
The next moment, the emerald crystal disappeared, and Su Xi slowly descended to the ground.
Having been immersed in life energy for several months, Su Xi felt as if she were a newborn baby, touching the outside world for the first time.
"Pfft... cough cough..."
After spitting out the water that had accumulated in her mouth and lungs and coughing a few times, Su Xi finally felt much better.
Then look at the system panel, and [Dimensional Avatar: Iksil] is available.
[Soul Split]! [Dimensional Avatar: Iksil]!
Soon, an older sister version of Su Xi appeared on the side.
Iksil was much taller than Su Xi, and apart from the regrettable fact that their chests were the same size, the rest of their figures resembled Su Xi on a proportional scale.
This Soul Split was also a special state, consuming Iksil's spiritual power.
Iksil blinked and materialized a set of clothes for himself.
After Iksil finished arranging things on Senxing, the two returned to Flower Full Star.
Iksil said seriously, "Su Xi, let's make one thing clear first. My divine spark is a high-level Guardian Deity god, which is invincible within the Sen Star Cluster. Even if the Lord of Silver Vortex comes, I won't be afraid. However, once I leave the Sen Star Cluster, the activity of my divine power will decrease significantly. My strength outside will at most be equivalent to a High Kami who has mastered ordinary laws."
Su Xi nodded, "Understood. If you offend a god you can't defeat outside, lure them into the Forest Star so you can unleash your full power."
Iksil raised an eyebrow. Was that what I meant?
Then, helplessly, he corrected, "What I mean is that you shouldn't provoke those powerful gods. It's best to hide in Senxing and not come out, since the Anti-time Trace on your body are too obvious."
Su Xi: "... Uh, okay, I promise I'll be a good turtle."
"By the way, what are the Anti-time Trace?" Su Xi couldn't help but ask.
"In the eyes of High Kami, everything in the universe is in a special, regular state of motion. The fact that you can still move normally, even though your motion is clearly stopped, proves that you are from the future."
Su Xi:?
Can't understand!
Hearing the sounds of conversation outside the cabin, Alif came out and immediately spotted the larger version of Your Highness Su.
Furthermore, he felt an unparalleled warmth emanating from His Your Highness Su.
This feeling, like seeing my mother...
This left Alif completely dumbfounded.
"Um, you are...?"
"My people, I am so glad to see you alive and well." Iksil opened his arms and embraced Alif.
"You are... the Guardian Deity of Iksil... the planet of Sen!"
Alif's nose instantly turned red, her eyes filled with tears, and she rushed into Iksil's arms, bursting into tears.
It was as if they wanted to cry out all the grievances they had suffered over the past thousand years at this moment.
Nymph and the Rozen Maiden came out in surprise upon hearing the crying.
"Hiss, I never expected that Alif, who always seemed so indifferent to everything, would cry so hard one day." Su Xi said to Nymph had come to her side, in surprise.
"If your mother were still alive, came back to see you, and opened her arms to you, could you still stay calm?" Nymph remarked.
Su Xi: "... Indeed, it's not possible."
