Using the Degradation Hat

Representatives of every major civilization were celebrating, but Lan Mu and the Galactic Core inhabitants were not.

Though it looked as if the Zerg had been completely wiped out, Lan Mu knew things were not that simple.

"Mother Queen Kelly has disappeared."

The instant Lan Mu annihilated all the Zerg, one giant Zerg had slipped beyond his control at the same time and vanished from the entirety of 3D spacetime.

"The Zerg can enter higher dimensions too? Giggs!" Lan Mu asked.

Giggs and the other Galactic Core inhabitants were all deeply shocked. They had also sensed that Kelly had entered higher-dimensional spacetime.

"How is that possible? The Zerg clearly shouldn't be able to..."

"It never obtained our genes. Where did this ability come from?"

The Zerg clearly should not have been capable of higher-dimensional interference. If the Zerg possessed dimensional abilities as well, the Galactic Core inhabitants could never have been their opponents.

Not to mention using the 2D spacetime blockade to perish together with them. That had only worked because the Zerg lacked dimensional abilities.

Unless the Zerg could only enter higher dimensions and could not open the sealed 2D spacetime.

In other words, they had not acquired the Galactic Core inhabitants' abilities.

"Hmph, it's seeding the entire universe..."

Lan Mu sensed Kelly, situated in higher dimensions, continuously deploying Zerg into the major galaxies.

Clearly, no method of expansion could be faster than deployment from higher dimensions.

Almost instantly, small Zerg branches had hidden themselves within more than seventy thousand galaxies.

That number was still rising at a terrifying rate.

When Lan Mu explained this, the Galactic Core inhabitants and every other civilization were horrified.

This was the worst possible scenario. The Zerg were using higher dimensions to spread their branches without end.

"Stop them!" Giggs cried anxiously.

But
