Chapter 356: Heavenly Body Plan Initiated

Academician Qian Bowen's handsome face filled the entire screen.

In the Yanhuang Civilization today, average lifespan exceeds a million years, and after many generations of genetic optimization, everyone's appearance is that of a handsome man or beautiful woman, without flaw.

Behind Qian Bowen, the background was the top-tier biological laboratory of the Academy of Sciences,

Dozens of top experts crowded behind him, stretching their necks to see the screen's contents clearly.

"Xiao Qin! No…… Chief Commander!"

Qian Bowen's voice shook violently with excitement as he pointed behind Qin Hao at the enormous corpse that filled the entire screen, transmitted via shared view.

"Is…… this the remains of the Devourer?!"

His breathing was rapid, his eyes shining, as if he had seen the most perfect artwork in the world.

"A miracle! This is the miracle of the universe!"

"A complete specimen of a fifth‑order advanced lifeform! Every one of its cells contains life secrets we cannot imagine!"

"This…… this is the key to reaching a sixth‑level civilization!"

The entire Academy of Sciences team fell into a state of near‑mad ecstasy.

What lay before them was not a corpse but an invaluable treasure trove composed of flesh and genes.

Qin Hao looked at the excited academician on the screen and spoke calmly.

"Old Qian, I need you and your team."

"Submit a complete modification plan to me in the shortest possible time."

Qin Hao's tone brooked no argument.

"I want to turn this corpse into a mobile fortress for us."

"A…… mobile fortress?"

Qian Bowen stared, stunned.

All the scientists behind him also stared, stunned.

The ecstatic expressions froze on their faces.

"Modification?"

"Turn this terrifying corpse, filled with endless rule‑contamination and unknown gene viruses, into a fortress?"

"What kind of idea is this?"

"How bold, how…… genius of an operation!"

After a brief silence, Qian Bowen's eyes blazed with a light a hundred times hotter than before.

"I understand! I understand! Hahaha!"

He laughed like a child.

"Using the biological structure as the frame, the energy core as the engine, and the external armor as the walls!"

"This…… this will be the most impregnable fortress!"

"Give me three days! No! One day! We can produce a preliminary plan within a day!"

Watching the scientists descend into frenzy, Qin Hao nodded and cut off the communication.

At that moment, Zhang Xianzhong's voice chimed in, grave.

"Chief Commander, the vanguard engineering fleet has approached within ten astronomical units of the corpse."

"The data returned by the probes…… is not promising."

On the main screen, a series of red warnings popped up.

"【Warning: Ultra‑high intensity energy radiation detected!】"

"【Warning: Radiation intensity sufficient to melt the outer hull of a Shenzhou‑class warship within 100 seconds!】"

"【Warning: Unknown highly active gene virus detected, threat level: maximum!】"

Zhang Xianzhong's face was grim beyond words.

"This thing…… is nothing but a massive radiation source and virus repository!"

"We cannot even approach it, let alone think of modifying it—any conventional contact would be suicide!"

This problem also made the commanders of the other civilizations in the United Fleet feel their scalps tingle.

Through the shared tactical display, they likewise saw those horrifying data.

The Yanhuang Civilization…… how do they intend to deal with this terrifying 'spoil'?

"Are we just going to let it drift here forever?"

"This is nothing short of wasting heavenly treasures!"

"But aside from watching helplessly, they could think of no solution."

"Inside the bridge of the Voidwalker, Qin Hao's expression showed no change."

"I have my own method."

He said calmly.

Then he issued an order to the empty command console.

"System."

"Create an Absolute Logic Purification Field to completely envelop the entire corpse."

"【Command confirmed.】"

"【Deduct ten billion energy units.】"

"【Absolute Logic Purification Field generating……】"

The next second.

Centering on the Voidwalker, a golden light curtain spread out like ripples.

The light curtain expanded silently, then expanded again.

Finally, it formed a colossal golden light shield with a diameter exceeding that of a star.

It completely enveloped the enormous sub-body corpse, along with the surrounding space of millions of kilometers.

A miracle occurred.

At the moment the golden light shield enveloped the corpse.

On Zhang Xianzhong's command ship, the piercing alarm fell silent.

All red data indicating danger, at the same time, were reset to zero.

【Energy Radiation Intensity: 0】

【Gene Virus Activity: 0】

【Space Structure: Stable】

Zhang Xianzhong and all the engineers stared fixedly at the screen, unable to believe their eyes.

What happened?

Where did the radiation and viruses capable of destroying everything go?

Only those who knew Qin Hao's trump card understood.

Within the 【Absolute Logic Purification Field】, all chaotic energy radiation was forcibly defined by his will as harmless background heat.

All deadly gene viruses, their constituent "information," were altered at the logical level into a pile of meaningless inert organic matter.

This is the power of the system.

Overbearing, and unreasonable.

"The purification field has been deployed; the threat is eliminated."

Qin Hao's voice spread across the channels of the Academy of Sciences.

"Old Qian, you may now enter."

In the communication screen, Qian Bowen and his team had already donned the latest research protective armor and boarded a research vessel.

"Depart! Full speed ahead!"

The old academician's roar was louder than any general's.

"Target! Inside the Devourer's body!"

Watching the research vessel carefully pass through the golden light shield and land safely on the corpse's surface.

Qin Hao's gaze fell once more upon the enormous corpse.

"From today onward, its codename is 【Heavenly Skull】."

"Based on its transformation plan, it is classified as the top secret of the Yanhuang Civilization—the 【Heavenly Skull Fortress】 project."

After handling this matter, Qin Hao's gaze shifted away from the battlefield.

The war has ended.

But new problems have only just begun.

"Connect with Old Luo and Old Zhang."

"At the same time, connect with the governors of the First and Second Expeditionary Armies, Biga Lie and Ke Huang."

"In ten minutes, convene the Yanhuang Civilization strategic meeting."

The order was just issued.

Another report was then placed before him.

Survivors from the Andromeda galaxy.

At the edge of the battlefield, a small fleet composed of dozens of different species hovered silently.

Leading them was the elder of the Sairen tribe, Ailiya.

She and the representatives of all surviving civilizations, through the porthole, witnessed Qin Hao alone, bare-handed, crushing the Devourer's sub-body in its entirety.

At this moment, she was leading everyone toward the "Void Wanderer" ship, performing their civilization's most ancient and solemn worship ritual.

That is the posture reserved for deities.

Qin Hao merely glanced at the report, then issued an order to Zhang Xianzhong.

"Convey my command to all survivors."

Zhang Xianzhong immediately stood at attention.

"The Yanhuang Civilization will protect all civilizations that survived the war."

"We will provide you with a new homeland."

"In exchange, you must surrender all technological data, historical documents, and every star chart you know."

Qin Hao's voice was icy and imposing.

"This is a notification, not a discussion."
