"But if you provide her with a permanent residence, the eyes of the entire universe will be drawn to her. You won't be able to defend against that. The Yaoshi won't do anything to harm anyone."

Huang Cao: "No... I'm thinking about another possibility. Is it possible that she could give me all the power of her destiny? She would still be the Star God of Abundance, but all the power would be within me..."

The Miss Doctor shook her head. "That won't work. The Star God is the master of destiny and has the highest right of interpretation. Even if He gives you all His power, He can take it back at any time. And can you withstand that... Wait, I understand."

Huang Cao: "What do you understand?"

The Doctor, "The answer is no. Selflessness doesn't mean you have to do it. What can you do to me if I can't do it? Even a skilled cook can't make a meal without rice."

Because all the power is in Master Huang's possession, the Yaoshi cannot distribute the power to more people. Even if he has the authority, what good is it? Huang Cao directly demands that the authority can only be used with his consent.

Therefore, even if someone asks her, she cannot do it, and because the Star God has the highest authority of interpretation, she will not be judged as not helping others.

I want to help, but I can't. You should talk to Huang Cao.

The Yaoshi is the goddess of Abundance, but under the influence of other Star God, she is not omniscient or omnipotent.

Therefore, Yaoshi can confidently say, "Just wait, I'll report the problem to higher authorities for you."

As for how long it will take, that depends on whether Master Huang is willing to give him the time and effort.

But why didn't anyone think of this before? Perhaps it's because Yaoshi have other ways to avoid this situation, or perhaps they wouldn't make this request if they could find His life?

Who knows the cause and effect behind this?

"But won't all these forces of destiny overwhelm you?" the Doctor asked worriedly.

"I don't think so, because besides the power of my destiny, I also possess a mysterious and profound power. This should be one of the reasons why I transmigrated. Any power I acquire will be enhanced under the blessing of this magical power. Although the numerical values don't change much, the mechanisms are greatly improved."

Then, Master Huang told the Doctor about the pair of eyes he gained after acquiring the power of the Hunt, eyes that could see into the future.

"I can see the lifespan of anything, but the blessings bestowed by the Hunt are clearly insufficient to support me in doing so."

"So I must be a very special being. In that case, why not be bolder... Aha's Insect, I've heard you tell this story before."

Doctor: "But Aha's bug exploded after it lost its power."

Huang Cao: "So it still exists before it loses its power. Therefore, I can conclude that gaining the power of destiny will not cause one to burst, but when the power of destiny becomes the basis for survival, once it disappears, the vessel will die completely."

"Aha's insects move entirely on the power of pleasure. Once they lose the power of destiny, they will naturally head towards death. But I not only possess Abundance, but also the Hunt, and an unknown power. I didn't understand it before, but now I understand it completely."

"I was not resurrected because of Abundance, but by that mysterious power. The Yaoshi once told me that this mysterious power within me is even stronger than His. Before making any requests, I will consult the Yaoshi first. If that doesn't work, we will consider it further."

The Miss Doctor figured it out. "You really don't want to suffer at all. You want to be a tyrant in Terra, and you want to be a tyrant in the Honkai: Star Rail universe too, right? I also think this plan is feasible."

"As the saying goes, the bold get rich, the timid starve. But before that, we should first secure our base in Terra, because that's our last resort."

"Moreover, the power within you can synchronize you with the rules of other universes, which might even become an aid for your transcendence. Moreover, it's estimated that only you can traverse different universes, so even if you've offended a bunch of forces on the Honkai: Star Rail, as long as you return to this universe, they still won't be able to find you."

Their smiles gradually turned sinister.

You provoke someone and then run away, acting like an outlaw, huh?

"In that case, I've already made progress in manufacturing the time-travel machine. I should be able to submit the finished product in about a year. Let's wait and see."

Presis watched silently as the two men's smiles grew increasingly sinister, and sighed beside them.

Although it's unclear what these two are up to, life in another universe is in for a world of trouble.

To obtain divine power?

After some time, the group returned to Terra.

In their office, Huang Cao and the Doctor decided to modify the cosmic environment surrounding the planet Terra.

The future mining method for the revitalized planet "Cretaceous" will definitely be alternating between spaceships and space gates. Therefore, it is not advisable to be too far away from Terra, as being too close will cause gravitational problems.

Presis: "I can design a multi-star circulation system that, while keeping the Terra system as a whole unchanged, can add one or more stars alongside it, and has the capacity to change its configuration, as well as a gravitational self-regulating mechanism."

"Therefore, even if the revitalized planet were to leave the Terra system for some reason in the future, it would not cause significant gravitational changes. However, this device will take some time, since there are not many legacies left from Pre-Civilization."

Pre-Civilization had conducted similar experiments, so this wasn't too difficult for Presis.

It's simply a matter of mechanical equilibrium; the difficulty lies in how to apply force to Terra and the surrounding galaxy.

Difficult to make does not mean complicated. At least for the technology of the Pre-Civilization, it was not difficult, and was even somewhat crude and simple.

"Then I'll leave it to you," Huang Cao said gratefully.

Presis waved his hand. "Don't be too happy yet. I need you to owe me a favor. Don't worry, I know your moral bottom line. I would never do anything to embarrass you."

Huang Cao replied, "I understand, I believe you."

All the words in the world boil down to one sentence. "I believe." Presis paused for a moment, then smiled and said:

"Okay, I'll go prepare now."

Chapter 737 Lateran Needs a Lord!

After the Cyber Ghost left, the Miss Doctor asked, "So, you've been making so many moves lately because you want to unify Terra as quickly as possible?"

"My suggestion is to make things a little harder for the Ursus people. They'll understand better with comparison. Utopia's territory is already quite large, but it will take some time to build cohesion."

Happiness is always relative, and the current adult travel system definitely needs a major overhaul.

"I plan to send every newly adult Utopian to an outer planet so they can experience the ruggedness of other worlds. I'm not saying this is to make them suffer without hardship; after all, the living conditions on an outer planet are indeed not as good as Terra in the short term, and sleeping outdoors in the open is a common occurrence."

There's a saying that goes, "You only realize how much of a brat you were when you were a kid after you become a parent yourself."

Therefore, the education of the new generation still needs to keep up. While enriching their spiritual world, occasionally adding a little real-world pressure can also allow them to fully utilize what they have learned.

Huang Cao: "According to my research, many young utopians today lament that their talents have nowhere to be displayed, feel that the social environment is too comfortable, and want to find something to do."

"In my opinion, this is a good thing. At least they haven't stagnated, so let's go explore other planets."

Miss Doctor: "That's your problem. We're indeed short-staffed for Tower 2. I need to get back to building the world shuttle now. You'll be in charge of your country's affairs."

Time is tight and the task is heavy.

Previously, Miss Doctor could share some of the affairs of Tower 2, but now Master Huang has to do it himself.

"Take a rest." The Miss Doctor vanished in a flash, to another location, light-years away.

Terra doesn't have the materials for the time machine, so we'll have to dig up some relics from Pre-Civilization.

The loggers were also a big culprit; they didn't eradicate the trees completely, leaving the stumps behind after they were cut down.

So, great Pre-Civilization, unleash your final brilliance!

"Okay, okay, the mountain of official business is just like when Utopia was first founded."

Back home, Huang Cao looked at the piles of work on the government affairs system and shook his head helplessly.

Although they weren't made of paper, they seemed to pile up into a small mountain in front of the man.

Cyber Paper Mountain belongs to that category.

When Master Huang returned, it was evening. Because of his business trip, the women hadn't stayed on the island for a while.

Those with jobs should go and handle their work; those without jobs can go and have some fun in Lateran.

After sighing for a while, he started working.

"The number of injured has increased by 50% compared to the beginning. They were injured by a special creation, but it's not a monster with an aura. It's more like a native species. Notify the Utopia's backup medical team to be ready and arrive at the Trailblaze camp at 8:00 AM sharp tomorrow."

"The reconnaissance team discovered an unknown ore with extremely high hardness, making it difficult to pry open its outer shell with existing tools. Preliminary assessments suggest it is a product of Pre-Civilization... We will collect ore powder, but after successful isolation procedures during the handover at 8:00 AM tomorrow, it will be sent to the Utopia research institute."

"The number of people with muscle strains has increased by 200%... These bastards really take their youth for granted and don't care about their health, huh? Force them to take a mandatory leave... But I guess they don't want to go back to Terra either. Looks like it's time to build a resort on Tower 2."

... it continued until the next morning.

It took Master Huang more than a month of skipping work to barely finish processing all the documents he had accumulated. In fact, if he had nothing to do before, he could not have accumulated so many documents even if he skipped work for half a year.

The main reason is that their activities on other planets have been too significant recently, and the base on Tower 2 also needs special attention.

However, urgent matters can be reported directly to Heaven, and Master Huang is working on revitalizing the planet, will return instantly to handle the situation.

In Utopia's government system, there is a super-urgent button. Once pressed, no matter what the matter is or what time it is, Master Huang will deal with it immediately, even if he is sleeping, he will wake up instantly.

Some documents are routine reports, helping Huang Cao to grasp the local situation more quickly, while some more important ones contain suggestions about the lives of the Utopian people and their development.

However, some places involve so many issues that a very central figure must personally set the tone to prevent future accidents.

This isn't infighting among Utopia's officials; it's more like a team working on a project, where everyone has their own plan for completing it.

In addition, considering the maturity level of the personnel, Huang Cao has not given the officials in charge of the Trailblaze base much autonomy.

Therefore, important decisions must be made with his order before action can be taken; otherwise, one must wait. If it is truly urgent, one can click the "super urgent" button.

Huang Cao will definitely give a corresponding reply in a very short time, of course.

Many less important documents were resolved without a response, and the initiator could click to cancel.

However, it's clear that no one is truly confident about Trailblaze other planets.

When faced with the unknown, seeking help from adults is the best approach.

Huang Cao wouldn't blame his people for this, because the pace was indeed a bit too fast, at least several hundred years ahead of the original storyline.

So there's no other way but for everyone to suffer a bit, since he's always been with the people of Utopia anyway.

Working yourself to the bone, working yourself to the bone, and working yourself to the bone again!

Utopia, I have returned!

Within a week of returning, Huang Cao was dealing with Tower 2 and Lateran's incorporation into Utopia.

Because Lateran incorporated a very strong religious element into its utopia, which did not align with the mainstream Utopian culture, it accumulated many minor problems.

The officials of Utopia, strictly speaking, had no experience in dealing with these minor issues, but everyone handled them well. Those who didn't handle them well generally sought solutions and reported the matter to Master Huang.

Master Huang is quite adept at handling these kinds of matters; after all, he's a well-rounded individual.

During his more than two hundred years in power, he continued to grow and was able to solve most problems.

In less than three days, various decrees were dispatched swiftly to the problem area in Lateran, like sharp swords.

Thanks to Master Huang's hard work, the problems were solved one by one, and the process was completely smooth.

In fact, many of the problems are not actually beyond the ability of local utopian officials to solve.

Because the problems in Lateran are largely influenced by human emotions, these issues must be addressed personally by Lord Huang Cao.

In other words, it means defining the tone of a matter with an absolutely official attitude.
