Since there were no clues, he would ask the metaphysical.

  He soon arrived at his destination and pressed the doorbell.

  “You’re here?”

  Aesop opened the door and invited Han Xiao

  in.

  Han Xiao did not stand on ceremony. He sat on the sofa and smiled. “How didn’t you foresee that I would come to find you?”

  “Prophecy isn’t always effective. Ever since you became a Transcendent, prophecies regarding you have become more and more difficult…”

  Aesop shook his head.

  “That’s true.” Han Xiao nodded.

  He had already done the test. As a Transcendent, his information projection state had undergone a sublimation, as if it had a certain level of information concealment property. It was difficult for outsiders to predict it.

  “Why are you looking for me?” Aesop paused and said, “If it’s a prophecy, please forgive me for being powerless. I can’t use my ability for the time being.”

  “Hmm? What happened?”

  Han Xiao was slightly stunned. He looked at Aesop carefully and realized that Aesop’s face was dispirited, as though he had been seriously ill.

  “When I received the passive prophecy the other time, I suffered a backlash. The target of my prophecy was an unprecedented mage who inflicted damage on me. My spirit still needs time to recover. Before that, I can’t help you…” Aesop coughed and said with a weak tone.

  “You didn’t tell Ames?” Han Xiao raised his brows.

  “No, she was too impulsive. I don’t know how she would react if she knew about this.”

  Aesop shook his head. He rarely revealed important prophecy information to Ames and would only discuss matters with Han Xiao.

  “I was going to tell you, but you rushed to the battlefield before I could say anything.”

  “When did this happen?” Han Xiao asked.

  “Calculating the time, I should have triggered the prophecy just before the expeditionary army outpost was attacked.”

  Hearing this, Han Xiao narrowed his eyes.

  Such a coincidence… Could it be the Secret Tree King? That guy was indeed a very powerful mage.

  “Do you have any other memories of that mage?”

  “No, my foresight was shattered. I can’t even remember what he looked like.” “Is that so…” Han Xiao pondered.” I might have guessed who this person is. He should be an expert from the World Tree.”

  “How is he? Did he cause you any danger?”.

  “Don’t worry, I’ve already sealed him up. If you’re angry, you’re welcome to visit him anytime.”

  “Forget it then. I don’t have your bad taste.” Aesop waved his hand.

  Han Xiao smiled, stood up, and was about to leave when Aesop suddenly said, “By the way, when will you and Ames reproduce?”

  Han Xiao paused and said helplessly, “How would I know? I can do it anytime, but she doesn’t agree. We’ll have to see when she changes her mind.”

  “Heh, she’s just being stubborn. As long as the mood is right, everything will be fine.” Aesop was instantly energized. “Back then, I traveled around the galaxy and made countless females fall in love with me. If not for my unwillingness, my children would have already spread across the various Star Fields. Let me tell you, I have quite a lot of experience in this area. Come, come, let me teach you some moves…”

  “You should keep it for yourself. I don’t need it.” Han Xiao’s eyes twitched. “Eh, why not? This is all the spiritual wealth left behind by our predecessors. Once you’ve learned all these tricks, you’ll be able to convince Ames. I’m not even willing to teach anyone else… Hey, don’t go, at least listen!”

  “Get lost.”

  Han Xiao did not want to bother with this old man who had a rich history of love. He changed into The King and left, leaving Aesop in the room, sighing with regret. Holy Accord Organization Base, Destiny’s Child Laboratory.

  With a flash of light, Han Xiao teleported over. The experimenters of the Holy Accord looked up, before continuing with their work.

  Han Xiao woke Destiny’s Child up with ease. After communicating for a while, he let Destiny’s Child predict his concerns.

  cerns

  After a while, Destiny’s Child shook his head, indicating that he could not foresee it.

  Seeing this, Han Xiao knew that his predictions would most likely not work. The other party had most likely used some sort of information concealment.

  “Looks like I can only increase the screening intensity and pay attention to any abnormalities…”

  Han Xiao pondered.

  Central Galaxy, desolate universe belt.

  In the secret base of the Star Alliance, a group of observers was gathered in a large room, staring at the device in the middle of the room.

  This device was a cylinder with a diameter of about ten meters and a height of about fifteen meters. It was silver-gray, and its surface was connected to many wires. The indicator lights were flashing crazily, and there was a buzzing sound. This was a long-distance material transmission device.

  After a while, the material transmission device suddenly shook, separating from the top and bottom. The pillar above slowly rose, and the interior of the pillar was revealed empty. There was a space covered by a transparent cover, and a white suitcase was lying inside. “My hometown sent it over.”

  The Observer Captain stepped forward and twisted the valve. He opened the cover of the material transmission device, picking up the white suitcase from within, and opened it on the spot. Inside the suitcase were three white cans without any labels.

  He took a pistol-like device from one of the team members and scanned the three cans one by one. After reading the numbers, he nodded.

  “Confirmed. They are all particles that have been enciphered.”

  Everyone was overjoyed. The Star Alliance had ordered the Observer Team to secretly leak information about the three Universal Civilizations. They had thought of many ways, including using the energy released by the Supernova to transmit a wave-like information surge to the entire universe, as well as using the Star position transmission method to secretly send messages to the World Tree, but they were all rejected. In the end, the Star Alliance chose to encode the tiny particles. They used the technology of microscopic transcription to spread the particles in the lower dimensions and record a huge amount of information. They then returned to their original form and turned the tiny particles into information carriers, containing all the information they wanted to leak.

  The Star Alliance mass-produced a pile of coded particles and prepared to throw them out of the border through the wormhole. This would cause the storage device to self-destruct at a certain time, attracting the attention of the World Tree and spreading the particles at the same time.

  They believed that with the technology of the World Tree, they should be able to discover the abnormality of these encoded particles and intercept them.

  The Star Alliance had been developing for a long time, and they had a high level of technology. They also had some knowledge of information forms, and they had always provided information cover for the Observer teams. They were not afraid of being discovered through any prophecy. They had secretly stolen the technological results of the galactic society for many years, and they were confident that they would not be discovered.

  Chapter 1421: Suspicion |

  Since he was suspicious, he had to take action. This had always been Han Xiao’s style. He told Phillip to monitor the intelligence of the galactic society and report any abnormal movements immediately. However, after being cautious for a few months, he did not discover anything. The situation was still changing. Because of the Pivotal Snake, the World Tree Civilization could not wait to attack the border defense circle again and again. The other troops entered the battlefield like there was no end to them and did not care about the damage. However, the Galactic Alliance Army was not to be trifled with. How could their defense line be broken so easily?

/>   Even in the secondary dimension battlefront, the World Tree Blessed Races did not believe it and invaded many times. However, with Han Xiao in the shallow layer dimension, it was like an immovable guardian deity. The Blessed Races invaded again and again, but they lost every time. They abandoned countless fleets and escaped many times, allowing Han Xiao to gain a lot of wealth.

  The worst part was in the individual strength level. The World Tree realized that they were being completely crushed. The Flickering World had Aurora, the healer, as well as EsGod and Herberlon, who were top-tier combatants; the World Tree experts were exchanging their injuries for nothing. The secondary dimension protector was Han Xiao, who was at the Transcendent Grade. Even the Tree Kings did not dare show their faces, so the others were useless.

  All of a sudden, the Holy Tree Emissaries, Ancestral Spirits, and Army Commanders realized that there was no use for them in both battlefronts.

  If they had already invaded the territory, they would have been able to move around in the universe nimbly with their individual strength, just like special forces. This would have affected the energy of the enemy civilizations and caused all kinds of damage. However, in the current situation, they could only wait for orders.

  After a few months of war, the tens of millions of players had once again integrated into the atmosphere of it. They could choose both fronts, and the missions were much richer. Their wallets also became thicker. Unfortunately, Version 5.5 had unlocked a new level cap, and the players’ main goal was to level up. They did not have much money to spend.

  As more and more players stepped into the Calamity Grade, the qualitative change also appeared. The players became more prominent on the battlefield, and the three Universal Civilizations paid more attention to them.

  From the perspective of the upper echelons, the explored universe was rich in resources. They were able to fight the battle of attrition with the World Tree Civilization for a long period of time because of their strong productivity. However, there was always an end to this path, and the World Tree Civilization was superior in this regard. As time passed, the three Universal Civilizations felt that they would start to weaken sooner or later, and the various hidden dangers of wartime policies would gradually appear.

  Of course, this kind of situation would not happen anytime soon, and they were not the ones who were troubled. The three Universal Civilizations were currently sitting on the high platform, and they wished to fight a war of attrition more than the World Tree in exchange for time for the Pivotal Snake to grow. Therefore, the players who had the Calamity Grade potential and could not be killed were important strategic weapons in the eyes of the three Universal Civilizations, and they were not afraid of exhaustion.

  The situation had been good for the past few months, and the galactic society was filled with confidence.

  Although the players did not know about the Pivotal Snake, after analyzing the situation on the surface, they felt that the three Universal Civilizations were definitely going to win. After learning Black Star’s operation, the matter would be settled with F2A[1]. With such an overwhelming advantage, how could they lose?

  At this point, Han Xiao noticed something.

  “All the members of the Super Star Cluster Alliance have set up secret stargates in their territory and gathered a large number of civilians, resources, and long-distance battleships. They are suspected to be preparing an escape?” Han Xiao flipped through the information, his expression changing as he pondered.

  Facing the invasion of the enemy, these advanced civilizations left themselves a way out. It was normal for them to make backup preparations. Even though the entire population was optimistic about the war and their confidence was boosted, the advanced civilizations still planned for the worst, which was understandable. Han Xiao had noticed the Super Star Cluster’s actions before, but he had not taken it seriously.

  However, because of the suspicion of the ‘War of All Realms’, as well as the fact that everything had been peaceful for the past few months, Han Xiao’s skepticism had become more and more serious. Right now, he was a little suspicious about everyone. Even though the Super Star Cluster Alliance’s plan was reasonable, it was still a little glaring in his eyes.

  Han Xiao recalled the performance of the Super Star Cluster Civilization’s troops on the battlefield. Although they had completed their mission, he felt like they had not used their full strength.

  In the past, he had thought that the Super Star Cluster was afraid of being used as cannon fodder by the three Universal Civilizations, so they were being cautious. However, when added to his skepticism now, he felt that something else was going on. After all, the conflict between the Super Star Cluster Alliance and the three Universal Civilizations was deeply rooted. It would not be their style if the Super Star Cluster Alliance did not seize the opportunity to do something in this kind of power reshuffling invasion.

  “I feel like they’re not just making a Plan B, they have other plans as well…”

  Han Xiao stroked his chin and made up his mind to gather the secrets of the Super Star Cluster Alliance.

  Anyway, regardless of whether there was a problem or not, it was not a bad thing to investigate. It would be best if he could find some evidence.

  After sending a message to Phillip, telling him to pay attention to intelligence about them, Han Xiao exited the quantum network and walked out of the room. A huge cloud appeared in his eyes. Pivotal Snake was hiding inside, and beside it was the stockman Realmless King, as well as a group of mechanical soldiers acting as bodyguards.

  Everyone was currently in a secondary dimension, allowing the Pivotal Snake to devour as much as it wanted. Han Xiao had been using the portable fortress to stay close to it, and while protecting it, he was also thinking about how to speed up the Pivotal Snake’s growth.

  Because of this, he had no choice but to do a full-body check of the Pivotal Snake. Of course, the Pivotal Snake was unwilling, but under his forceful control, it could only stare at Han Xiao with its cold and unwilling eyes, allowing Han Xiao to move its body back and forth.

  After checking its body, Han Xiao realized that there was no gender difference in the Pivotal Snake, it could be said to be a hermaphrodite.

  After a more detailed examination, Han Xiao also figured out how the Pivotal Snake reproduced, which made him feel a little complicated.

  The reproduction of the Pivotal Snake needed to be done in a mating-like manner through the secondary dimension that had given birth to a consciousness, absorbing the secondary dimension in another way and turning it into an embryo. This kind of behavior could be called self-reproducing, or it could be said to be hybrid breeding. It just did not need the ‘help’ of its own kind.

  However, thinking about it, it was likely that the Pivotal Snake would not be able to meet another of its kind in its lifetime. Furthermore, it was being hunted by the World Tree. If it could not reproduce alone, it would probably have gone extinct long ago.

  The problem was that the Pivotal Snake usually ate secondary dimensions… In other words, this snake would reproduce with its food…

  Furthermore, after sleeping with him, you still want to eat him up as nutrition… Are you a female praying mantis?

  All kinds of thoughts flashed through Han Xiao’s mind. He looked at the Pivotal Snake who did not even bother to look at him, and had some ideas.

  “No matter how much the Pivotal Snake eats, it will at most gain weight and will not enter the mature stage quickly. The growth of a creature has to follow the rules… But if I change the foundation of its existence, I don’t know if it will be effective.”

  Han Xiao had a bold idea. If the Pivotal Snake was allowed to develop properly, who knew how long it would take for it to reach adulthood. However, if he used (Life Transformation-Virtual] to turn it into an artificial intelligence life form, the difference in life forms would be like the difference between heaven and earth. Would he be able to instill a large amount of data into it to spe
ed up its maturity? The only problem was that he did not know if the Pivotal Snake could still keep its perception of the World Tree after its existence transformation.

  Logically speaking, if the perception came from the Information Form level, it should not have any effect no matter what life form the Pivotal Snake had changed into.

  However, Han Xiao did not dare take the risk. There was only one Pivotal Snake, and he could not reverse its transformation.

  “If only I could get one more, I could experiment…”

  Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at the Pivotal Snake.

  Why not… let this snake give birth now?

  Speaking of which, it’s still a cub, can it stick it up?…

  Han Xiao fell into deep thought.

  While Han Xiao was studying about breeding, the World Tree Civilization made some discoveries.

  In the Tree King’s palace, the Ancestral Tree King listened to the report from the frontline with a subtle expression.

  “Is it confirmed? The particles you intercepted contained a lot of information about the enemy civilization?”

  “That’s right. These particles used microscopic recording technology that involves the transformation of dimensions. We’re still trying to decode them and restore the specific content, but we can’t be wrong. There are many spatial coordinates and star maps of the enemy’s territory.”

  “There’s such a thing?”

  The Ancestral Tree King’s eyes flickered.

  The two armies were at a stalemate at the border, and the World Tree had also built a base and placed it at the entrance of the three Universal Civilizations. Not long ago, an urgent report came from the frontline. The radar of the frontline station had discovered that there were abnormal spatial reactions and weak signs of energy explosions somewhere a certain distance away. Thus, they sent out an exploration team to check, afraid that the three Universal Civilizations were not satisfied with defending and were creating problems.

  However, after some testing, they discovered that it was a temporary wormhole that had disappeared by the time the exploration team had arrived. To be cautious, the exploration team searched along the traces of the energy explosion, and the microscopic vision scanner quickly discovered that some special particles were floating in the area that seemed to have been scattered in all directions by the explosion. Therefore, the exploration team collected a portion of them, but they unexpectedly discovered a large amount of information related to the three Universal Civilizations.
