As the pill was swallowed by Theresa, traveling down her esophagus into her stomach, its outer shell dissolved under the corrosive action of gastric acid.

The Hyper-Mutation Factor sleeping within was awakened and activated by the stomach acid, directly ignoring the acid to merge into her capillaries, then flowing through her bloodstream toward every limb and organ.

The Immortal Power dormant inside Theresa, upon encountering the Hyper-Mutation Factor, also activated, amplifying the factor. The Hyper-Mutation Factor began consuming nutrients within Theresa's body to divide and multiply, integrating into her genes and initiating an unknown transformation.

The first step was the awakening of Vishnu's devouring instinct. Theresa suddenly felt ravenously hungry, her eyes turning slightly red as she stared at the defeated Antimatter Legion soldiers.

"Ugh... I'm so hungry."

Theresa clutched her stomach as she spoke. Dan Heng and March 7th's expressions stiffened upon hearing her words. They realized that since being pulled aboard the Express, Theresa had only drunk Himeko's coffee and seemingly eaten nothing at all.

"Sorry, we've been poor hosts. We forgot you haven't eaten in a long time. Please bear with it—once we find the Space Station personnel, we'll solve your food problem."

Himeko apologized to Theresa with some embarrassment. March 7th also gave an awkward laugh, having forgotten as well.

"I feel so hungry... I feel like I could even eat those monsters!"

Theresa shouted, her eyes growing redder. Unable to bear the terrible hunger any longer, she raised her hand, and the cross on her neck returned to its original form, landing in her grasp.

"Oath of Judah, deploy! Heavenly Judgment!"

Theresa slammed Judah onto the ground and shouted. Before the astonished eyes of the Stellaron Hunters, a massive sword array unfolded, with a gorgeous magic array appearing at its center. A tremendous suction force erupted.

The screaming Antimatter Legion monsters were pulled in, shredded by the sword array, and reduced to scattered debris.

The Antimatter Cores were also absorbed by the magic array at the center, converted into black-gold Imaginary Energy, which Judah absorbed and transmitted to Theresa.

Theresa felt a sense of satisfaction as the dense energy flowed into her. The Vishnu Hyper-Mutation Factor within her began to divide and multiply wildly under the abundant energy supply, starting to fuse with and evolve Theresa's cellular structure.

Thus, before the astonished eyes of Welt and the others, the once-dense Antimatter Legion in the Space Station was completely slaughtered and devoured by the sword array Theresa had deployed.

Fortunately, under Theresa's control, the array's suction did not affect the Stellaron Hunters. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and watched as the massive sword array annihilated and consumed every Antimatter Legion soldier in sight.

"Uncle Yang, is Theresa really this strong? She's worth everyone's combat power combined."

March 7th spoke with awe as she watched the sword array madly slaughtering the Antimatter Legion, turning to Welt.

"This is also the ability of the Oath of Judah. The Oath of Judah is the Eleventh Divine Key, forged fifty thousand years ago from the Core of the Herrscher of Binding."

"According to my research, this Divine Key has all sorts of bizarre functions. It's a precious weapon left behind by the Previous Civilization."

"Not only that, but it's said to possess many undiscovered modes. It's extremely versatile."

Welt explained to everyone, who looked on curiously at Judah as it rampaged.

With a snap, the sword array deployed by the Oath of Judah quickly annihilated all the Antimatter Legion in this section.

The sword array began to shrink and vanish. The deployed Judah also closed and shut down. Theresa licked her lips in satisfaction. The terrible hunger had disappeared, and the Hyper-Mutation Factor within her had successfully fused.

Now, it was just a matter of future awakening. After all, Vishnu was a Honkai Beast that represented devouring everything. As long as it had something to eat, it would keep growing!

At that point, Theresa could finally shed the title of "Judas Launcher." She didn't want to be someone who could only rely on Judah and nothing else.

"Ugh, I'm full now! I'm not hungry anymore!"

Theresa put away the Oath of Judah and smiled happily.

"Hey, Theresa, didn't that cross of yours just annihilate all the Antimatter Legion? What does that have to do with you being full?"

The Stellaron Hunters who had walked over heard Theresa's words, and March 7th asked in confusion.

"Well, since I drifted through space for a long time, the energy in my body had been consumed too much just to sustain me. Now that I've replenished it from those monsters, I don't really need to eat food anymore~"

Theresa explained to the Express Crew.

Dan Heng pondered the meaning of Theresa's words. Honestly, this was the first time he had ever seen such a bizarre way of eating.

"Everyone can rest assured. I know Theresa inside and out. She is the most suitable user of this Divine Key, and the combat power she unleashes is not to be underestimated."

"Next, let's go find the Space Station personnel. We'll split up this time. Theresa, March 7th, and Dan Heng, you're one group. Himeko and I are the other."

Welt began assigning tasks. Everyone nodded in understanding and split up to search for the Space Station's people.

"Whoosh! Boom, boom, boom!"

"Open fire! Alternating attacks!"

A white-haired, thin, dark-skinned man directed the guards.

He himself joined the fray, wielding a great sword crackling with lightning to slay the Antimatter Legion.

Meanwhile, March 7th, Dan Heng, and Theresa began searching other sections for survivors.

Soon, they spotted a group of guards and Arlan struggling to hold out against the Antimatter Legion's siege.

"Sometimes you need to get serious. Taste the power of this young lady!"

March 7th leaped into the air, drew her bow, and fired. The power of the Ice Path transformed into a swarm of bear-like plushies that pounced on the Antimatter Legion, freezing them solid.

Seizing the opportunity, Dan Heng swung his Cloud-Piercer in a sweeping strike, pushing back some of the Antimatter Legion and relieving the pressure on Arlan and the guards. They quickly retreated, looking gratefully at the Stellaron Hunters.

When they saw the beautiful and adorable Theresa, the hot-blooded young men blushed, feeling ashamed for retreating in front of a pretty girl.

"Oath of Judah, deploy!"

"Hunting Mode!"

With Theresa's words, before the astonished eyes of Arlan and the others, the Oath of Judah slammed heavily into the ground and unfolded. Thirteen Soul Steel spears, trailing chains, flew toward the Antimatter Legion.

Their proud defenses were like fragile tofu before the Oath of Judah, pierced through effortlessly with no chance to resist before being slaughtered and devoured. The energy was absorbed by Theresa through the Oath of Judah into her own body.

Today's beauty. The protagonist looks like this.
