Chapter 59: Just evolved and already invaded

Warhammer 40K.

Human Imperium, Holy Terra.

Upon the Golden Throne, the Emperor's desiccated body, reduced to mere skeleton, burst forth with waves of surging psychic energy.

Even he, an existence that overlooks myriad ages, was deeply shaken by the evolutionary path of the Ultraman race of the Land of Light.

Unified evolution.

Replacing idealistic psychic energy with pure material light.

This is a racial modification plan that, in theory, can completely seal off warp contamination.

This is completely different from the Webway plan he once conceived, which sought to isolate warp threats through physical means.

The Ultraman civilization has erected an impregnable firewall at the level of every individual organism.

Stellar Human Federation.

Grand Marshal Sidney Bockelair stood at the center of the flagship's bridge, watching the unbelievable scene on the skyscreen, utterly shocked.

"The evolution of the Land of Light is a textbook-level fortress-world mentality."

Her thoughts swirled through the bridge communications network, relayed to every subordinate.

"The Ultraman civilization chose neither flight nor internal strife, but instead remodeled the entire planet into the greatest of miracles."

"Each of their individuals has ascended to become a god-like existence."

"Such social cohesion and executive power surpass any fleet that roams the cosmos."

Her sharp gaze swept over the faces of every Human Union member on the warship:

"Although the Ultraman civilization bears no malice toward humanity and has even protected us multiple times,"

"But in the universe where our Human Federation resides, there are countless heresies and alien forms; vigilance toward other civilizations must be maintained at all times, never relaxed."

"We absolutely cannot, like the Earth Federation, allow alien species to invade our human bloodline."

Trisolaran Fleet Command Center.

All Trisolarans witnessed the ancestors of the Land of Light as the sun exploded and died out, the entire star plunging into cold silence, then groping in darkness to finally ignite the plasma spark tower, achieving the full process of civilization and species leapfrogging ascension.

At this moment.

In their thought units, besides endless shock, there arose from the logical core a feeling of admiration and respect.

Likewise facing the sun's problem, likewise facing an existential crisis for civilization.

The Ultraman civilization adopted a course utterly different from that of the Trisolaran civilization.

This approach is also the root of the Trisolarans' long-standing fear, and a path they never imagined.

The sun has died out—then let us manufacture an artificial sun!

The Ultraman did not abandon their homeworld on which they depend for survival.

But the Trisolarans abandoned their homeland, wandering the vast cosmos, preparing to journey to Earth four light-years away.

A officer's thought fluctuation brimmed with heartfelt sigh.

"The Ultraman civilization's arrival at today is neither coincidence nor the luck we previously guessed at."

"Their reaching this point stems from their strong inner resolve and unyielding spirit."

"In this regard, we……are inferior to them!"

Its thought fluctuation at this moment is not humility, but a conclusion genuinely drawn from deep within the logical core.

The Ultraman's strength has nothing to do with their survival environment.

Even if they encountered a survival environment harsher than that of the Trisolaran world, they have never abandoned hope.

Just then, the image on the skyscreen continued to change.

【Under the unremitting efforts of the Land of Light's ancestors, civilization achieved a leap, and individuals completed elevation.】

【They possessed towering power and absolute strength.】

【However, even having evolved into such towering ultimate lifeforms as Ultraman, the tribulations of the Land of Light have not yet ended.】

【In the depths of darkness, countless pairs of evil eyes stare at the brilliantly radiant Land of Light, ready to strike at any moment; the storm has already been silently brewing.】

The words on the skyscreen gradually surfaced, quickly arousing the curiosity of all civilizations watching this.

These beings of light, by rights, have become god-like civilizations, wielding power capable of destroying the strong and crushing the weak.

Do those giants who evolved under the plasma spark tower's irradiation also ever suffer invasion?

Who dares to covet the resources of the Land of Light?

Who dares to invade the Land of Light?

On the skyscreen,

The text continued to drift slowly upward.

【Thirty thousand years ago, the Cosmic Great Emperor Ampelans mustered a great army and invaded the Land of Light.】

【That was the first time in the Land of Light's history that it faced a full-scale invader in battle.】

【In that brutal battle, the Land of Light suffered heavy losses, and at one point was driven to desperation by the Ampelra!】

【This is the most difficult battle the Land of Light has faced since its entire populace evolved, a conflict that directly lasted over a thousand years.】

Cybertron.

Bumblebee froze.

It never imagined that just moments ago the skyscreen showed such mighty, ultimate Ultraman civilization, yet it could also be invaded, even driven to desperation.

"How is this possible!"

"With the Ultraman civilization already so mighty, what kind of invader could drive them to desperation?"

In its view, these beings of light are practically invincible; how could they possibly be driven to desperation by invaders?

"I don't believe it!"

"This is absolutely impossible!"

"At the side,"

"Optimus Prime also found it somewhat unbelievable."

"According to reason, the Ultraman civilization has already mastered such advanced technology and powerful strength,"

"The plot should be that they became the police of the whole universe, busy day after day with intergalactic calls. How could they possibly be invaded?"

"This question, I also find it unbelievable."

"Universe Emperor Abeira? What kind of existence is he, how powerful is his strength, daring to invade the Land of Light?"

"How can he possibly force the Land of Light into desperation?"

"Optimus Prime, like Bumblebee, had his curiosity completely aroused."

"Super Beast World"

"Huo Linfei was stunned."

"No, who could force the Ultraman civilization into desperation?"

"What the heck is this Abeira alien? He dares to call himself the Great Emperor!"

"The sky curtain quickly gave him the answer."

"【The homeland of the Abeira aliens was originally similar to the Land of Light, both having experienced a supernova explosion and the extinction of the sun】"

"【However, the Abeira aliens' planetary civilization did not construct the plasma spark tower.】"

"【The desperate Abeira aliens absorbed the resentment of their entire clan and obtained the strongest dark power.】"

"【When he saw that the Land of Light, which had similar experiences to his civilization, had successfully evolved its life level, the imbalance in his heart was broken.】"

"【Thus, this Universe Great Emperor organized the dark army and personally invaded the Land of Light.】"

"On the sky curtain,"

"A pitch-black cosmic being exuding a terrifying aura led the vast Yingpulieza Legion, the Dark Four Heavenly Kings, and countless monsters in a slaughter within the Land of Light!"

"It was exactly the Abeira alien."

"In the picture, countless Ultraman fought back against the endless army."

"For a time, blood flowed like rivers within the Land of Light."

"On the sky curtain,"

"Shocking images continuously transmitted."

"The Ultraman, whom other civilizations believed to wield divine power, continuously retreated under the attack of the Abeira alien and his forces."

"Even, some Ultraman actually died on the battlefield."

"Many of these fallen Ultraman were ancestors of the Land of Light."

"That is, the original group who built the plasma spark tower."

"They were originally elders of the Land of Light, yet they died on the battlefield under the assault of the dark army."

"Even Jian and Bei Li Ya, the two most talented young warriors of the Land of Light, were defeated by the Abeira alien even when fighting together."

"This Universe Great Emperor lived up to his name, bringing the Land of Light a pitch-black despair."

"Just at the critical moment of life and death for the Land of Light,"

"Mary brought the Land of Light's Ultraman Sword, also known as the Ultimate Blade."

"After Jian obtained the Ultraman Sword, his courage to protect exploded completely; the power of the mind made him awaken a strong power—True Power!"

"After awakening the power,"

"Jian, wielding the Ultraman Sword, fought together with the Abeira alien."

"All the Ultraman of the Land of Light nearby were watching the battle."

"They were all anxiously awaiting a result."

"That is,"

"Holding the holy sword,"

"Jian who had awakened True Power,"

"Whether he could defeat the Abeira alien, as terrifying as an abyss?"
