"System, conduct another global search. Give us a million dollars, we're not short of money!"
{Sorry, host, a million-level rating requires a host strength score of 100,000.}
"Give me a perfect explanation!" Ling Yi's face darkened.
{Worlds searched with millions of Vow Power Points are invariably at the Desolate Tier, where the strength of powerful beings is difficult to assess. If one encounters a Desolate Tier Big Shot with a strength exceeding 100 million, they might very well follow the host's consciousness to bypass the barriers and enter.}
Ling Yi: "..."
"So if my skill rating reaches 100,000, the opponent won't be able to get through?"
{Host, after 100,000, your overall strength will undergo a significant upgrade, especially in terms of your soul. This system will then be able to unlock a second level of defense.}
Only by activating the second level of defense can the system withstand the intrusion of Big Shot's consciousness. If the host's strength reaches a million, the system can activate the third level of defense.
{At that time, the system will be able to block the host's intentions, and even Big Shot wouldn't be able to detect it.}
{It is recommended that the host's strength reach over a million before conducting a million-level world search; otherwise, this system can protect the host, but cannot protect the Protagonist bound to the host.}
"So, is it that I'm not good enough, or is your system just too lame?"
{What do you think? You understand the saying, "Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice," right, host?}
"But now there's an extra empty seat, and it just doesn't feel right. It's OCD!"
{Host, don't forget, you synchronized two Limiter Remover from the Laosan. You used them both, so your strength score easily exceeded six million, right?}
Ling Yi ignored the system; the Limiter Remover was his Bao'er, how could he use it casually?
One use of the Limiter Remover can increase Battle Power tenfold in all aspects; two uses will increase it a hundredfold.
The higher the foundation, the stronger the doubling effect.
Using it now would be a waste. Ling Yi's plan is simple: he'll only use it when his Battle Power is at least a million.
"Give me 10,000 Vow Power Points! There's no way I'll leave this spot empty!"
{Host, I don't understand!}
"You don't need to understand, just copy it!"
"Ding, world search in progress, Transcendent Tier world found, binding in progress..."
"Ding, world binding successful!"
Just as Ling Yi was about to immerse his consciousness in the new world, his phone rang.
The caller was none other than Motuo, his representative in the Underground World.
"Sir, that black ball is here again!"
"Wait for me!"
Ling Yi hung up the phone and Teleportation teleported to the Underground World.
"Gentlemen!"
Upon seeing Ling Yi suddenly appear, Motuo bowed respectfully.
"Can you determine the other party's coordinates?" Ling Yi asked directly.
Motuo tapped twice in the Void, and a semi-transparent virtual screen appeared before him.
What comes into view is still the sun, a burning Fireball.
As Motuo zoomed in on the image, the Shadow of a black ball suddenly appeared in the lower left corner of the photo.
As can be seen from the image, a tube-like structure protrudes from below the black sphere, extending directly into the interior of the sun.
"Is this thing absorbing energy from the sun?" Ling Yi asked.
Motuo shook his head and said, "That's only one possibility, but after further research, we have another guess."
"For the past two years, we have been searching for each other's Shadow. We have searched almost every corner of the Solar System, leaving no area unexplored."
"But they all failed, so we guess..."
Ling Yi's eyes lit up, and he said, "They live inside the sun?"
Motuo coughed, nodded, then shook his head. "Sir, that's only one possibility. Another possibility is that they, like us, live inside the planet."
Ling Yi paused for a moment, then said, "Okay, I was being narrow-minded."
"There are too many habitable planets in the Solar System, but searching for them this way would be too troublesome."
Come to think of it, these Underground People, who used to be prison guards, were still a bit too uncivilized.
Patrolling the Solar System is possible, but comprehensive monitoring is not yet feasible.
As for the ability to Combat in space? Yes, but not much.
The existence of these unknown entities in the Solar System is ultimately not a big deal.
Even if the other party has no hostility towards humans, we still have to meet them first.
How fast can your spaceship reach?
"It can reach the Universe 3 velocity at its fastest!"
Ling Yi had no idea what the Universe 3 velocity was. "Just tell me how long it would take to get from Blue Star to the edge of the Solar System."
"Our good aircraft will take about three years to develop."
Ling Yi clicked his tongue. "That long?"
" The Solar System covers an area of about one light-year, so three years is already quite fast."
"This is too slow."
Ling Yi's current maximum Teleportation distance is over 6,000 kilometers, and his Limit number of Teleportation per second is 10, which is 60,000 kilometers. In 5 seconds, that's exactly 300,000 kilometers.
In other words, if Ling Yi's Limit speed is one-fifth the speed of light, and the Solar System is one light-year in size, wouldn't it take me five years to reach the edge of the Solar System?
Even if we calculate the radius and reduce it by half, it would still take two and a half years, which is too long.
How about we go check out the sun first?
"System, with my current strength, can I withstand the sun's temperature?"
{Host, please don't be delusional. Forget the sun; there are many places in the universe where you can't survive right now.}
"I already have over 60,000 Battle Power, and that's not enough? Just tell me, if I want to wander freely in the universe and reach the edge of the Solar System in a second, what level do I need to reach?"
{million!}
"I get angry whenever you bring this up. You told me in the beginning that the highest Battle Power in the world was 990,000, right?"
{Host, please note that as I mentioned before, that referred to the highest Battle Power of an individual life form, not the highest Battle Power of this Desolate Tier world.}
"But that's not what you said at the beginning. You told me that because this world follows the path of technology, the highest Battle Power is 990,000."
{Now I'll tell you!}
Ling Yi seemed to see a little figure making a haughty, shrug gesture.
{This system will try to justify itself again... Let me explain seriously once more: In the Desolate Tier world, there is virtually no upper limit to Battle Power. Although this world follows a technological path, it is limited by the level of development of Quantum technology and dark matter technology.}
{For this world, the degree of control over Quantum mechanics and dark matter determines the upper and lower limits of Battle Power. Currently, based on the data I've detected, the highest Battle Power of life forms in the host's world can indeed only reach 990,000.}
{It seems to be limited by some kind of rule or Psychic Power, but this only restricts the living organisms; technological power is not limited.}
Ling Yi was a little confused, not quite understanding.
"Does that mean my maximum Battle Power can only reach 990,000?"
{Host, you are the original body... protected by this system, so naturally you are not subject to these restrictions.}
Did you let something slip?
{It is recommended that the host increase their Battle Power to 100,000, and then use the Limiter Remover once.}
So you're going to just Ignore and forcefully change the subject? Fine, sooner or later we'll expose all the system's secrets.
Tell me what this black ball is!
{Host, this question requires 100,000 Vow Power Points. Would you like to use Vow Power Points to inquire?}
"You fucking idiot, you've gone too far! The questions before didn't Vow Power Points, but this one Vow Power Points?"
{The previous content was just common knowledge, so it naturally didn't require spending Vow Power Points.}
Do you want me to believe you or not?
Ling Yi's face darkened, and he decided to ignore the system. Ever since this guy "came to life," he had become increasingly shameless.
Ling Yi turned to Motuo and instructed, "Compile a list of the coordinates of all the planets where the enemy might be hiding and send it to me."
"Okay, sir, what should we do with this?" Motuo asked, pointing to the black ball in the photo.
"Don't worry about it for now, and there's no need to pay special attention to it. Since they don't want to talk to us, there's no need to force it. I'll go find them myself later."
"Yes!"
After Ling Yi finished speaking, he looked out the window.
Motuo's office is now on the highest floor of the city, offering a panoramic view of the entire city through its windows.
"There are many more humans in the Underground World," Ling Yi said.
"Yes, sir, as you wish, we have granted access to the people of the Ancient Country."
Follow my wishes? Did I say that? Never mind, it doesn't matter.
Motuo thought for a moment and then asked, "Sir, are all the theories you put forward in your novels true?"
"You still read novels?"
"Sir, please don't forget our past identity. We will pay attention to any cutting-edge theories and research topics."
A prison guard, you know, a prison guard who monitors and supervises human prisoners!
Which aspect are you referring to?
"We've studied the Cradle of Life Project Cradle of Life Project. If it can truly be realized, it could allow all carbon-based life forms to achieve perfect evolution at the genetic level."
" The Cradle of Life Project is real, but it's not easy to fully understand it. How about you give it a try?"
"Is it really possible, sir? You may not know this, but if this Cradle of Life Project truly succeeds, we might be able to achieve a leap in our life level and possess unparalleled power."
"It's even possible that, through individual strength, one could break through the Solar System's blockade."
"Yes, I'll try to get you a copy of the detailed data later, so you can study it together with the scientists from the Ancient Country and Sharing the technology!"
"Sir!" Motuo was clearly excited, and even the color of his skin changed several times due to his excitement.
Ling Yi was utterly astonished; lizardmen, could they really transform into cesium?
Ling Yi patted him on the shoulder and then disappeared.
Back home, Ling Yi uploaded the novel the system had written that day and said to the system, "Send me to Lin Huai's world."
"Ding, does the host wish to consume 10,000 Vow Power Points...?"
"Do you really have to ring it? Is ritual that important?"
"Ding, Vow Power Points have been deducted. In progress, 10...9..."
