Chapter 23

~8 min read 1,424 words

"This?! What on earth is this Contingency? Even Emperor Rupert didn't have such a terrifying army?!"

"Too terrifying, this is even more terrifying than the Prethoryn Scourge."

"This is the true mechanical disaster! Can the Disaster Empire really hold on?"

The sentient beings of the universe were terrified.

This urgent scene was also transmitted to the Emperor of the Disaster Empire.

The Emperor of the Disaster Empire raised his finger calmly and said to the three scientific research arrays in front of him:

【"Continue our experiment, adjust the speed of light of the entire universe."】

【"If you fail, I will wield the brass greatsword of the 'World Eater' from the Void Realm and shatter half the universe."】

(In this chapter, the threat codes used by the Contingency against the Disaster Empire: CK/ZK/HK/UK, are all Foundation end-of-the-world level codes, CK Reality Restructuring, ZK Reality End, HK Suppression/Sealing, UK Universe Collapse.)

33. 【Dreammaster: Hard to say!】

"Shatter half the universe..."

Listening to the words of the Disaster Empire Emperor in the light screen, Sunday's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly.

He guessed that the "World Eater" in the mouth of the Disaster Empire Emperor was an ancient and powerful existence entrenched in the Void Realm.

And the Emperor of the Disaster Empire could actually use his power to shatter half the universe with his brass greatsword...

This made Sunday's mood a little gloomy.

There was also the Synaptic Condenser that appeared earlier, linking the consciousness of all sentient beings into one.

It was hard for Sunday not to think of the Order Dream he wanted to construct.

One was a giant computing system that linked the consciousness of hundreds of millions of sentient beings to provide computing power and storage for the Disaster Empire.

One was linking the dreams of the sentient beings of the Asdana star system to build a beautiful new world of eternal seven-day rest.

Sunday could even imagine what would happen if the Disaster Empire discovered the Order Dream.

To them, the Order Dream was simply computing power and storage delivered to their door.

"Are you feeling hesitant about our plan?" the Night-thrush standing on the table asked.

Sunday cast a look at it, using his eyes to ask how it could ask such a stupid question.

"Lord Gopher Wood."

Sunday tapped the table and asked:

"How do the Aeon of Order and the Void Realm gods compare?"

The Night-thrush was stunned for a moment, then its eyes drifted and said: "... Hard to say."

"How do the Order Dream and the Synaptic Condenser compare?"

"..." The Night-thrush was silent for a moment and then said: "Hard to say."

"How do Penacony and the Disaster Empire compare?"

"... Also hard to say."

Sunday stared at the Night-thrush, and the Night-thrush stared at Sunday.

The two of them stared at each other, eyes wide, locked in a stalemate over the table.

"As the dignified Dreammaster, the leader of the Order remnants in Penacony, is it appropriate to only say 'hard to say'?"

"..... Hard to say."

Sunday covered his face, trying to suppress the urge to put the Night-thrush in front of him into a pot and stew it.

"..... Sunday, you have always been a smart child."

The Night-thrush turned its bird eyes and said again:

"You should know how fragile Penacony is if it faces the Disaster Empire now."

"At least after forging the Order Dream, Penacony will have a little bit of resistance."

"What's more... the potential of the Order Dream is not as simple as an Asdana star system."

The Night-thrush vibrated its wings slightly on the dining table, flew to a high place, and looked down at the sand table of Penacony in the distance:

"Although the Disaster Empire can usurp the power of the so-called Void Realm gods, if we resurrect Order, it is not impossible to resist one or two."

Listening to the future planned by the Night-thrush, Sunday sighed slightly.

He could vaguely feel that the Disaster Empire presented in the light screen now was perhaps only a small part of its power.

Thinking of this, Sunday turned his attention back to the light screen.

He saw the massive fleet of the Contingency take off from countless mechanical planets, converging into a steel blade that cut through the starry sky, piercing toward the border of the Disaster Empire.

The fleet of the Contingency was so massive that the gravitational effect produced by its mass even caused the orbits of the star systems it passed through to fall into chaos.

Planets fell into the sun under the gravitational pull of the Contingency fleet, and stars also fell out of their original orbits due to gravity...

Without any weapons, just by its own mass, it destroyed countless star systems.

However, at this moment, a ripple suddenly appeared in the structure of the universe.

The ships of the Contingency vibrated slightly, and the dim stars in the background of the void also fluctuated accordingly.

In an instant, the starlight in the void suddenly became more numerous and brighter than before.

The stars hovering near the orbit of the Contingency also became dazzling, and their energy output increased twofold on the Contingency's instruments.

Not only did the stars change, but the ships of the Contingency, which were staring at the light speed barrier and sailing at sub-light speed, also fell into brief chaos.

Their speed was significantly faster than just now, and they even exceeded the speed of light just by relying on propulsion accelerators, and the speed was constantly increasing.

【"Warning! Error! Error!"】

【"The current vacuum speed of light is 310 million meters/second! An increase of 5% compared to the normal speed of light value!"】

【"Mass evaporation phenomenon detected, fleet mass has lost 9.29%!"】

A metallic wail came from the Contingency fleet in the star space, and tiny holes appeared out of thin air in the hulls of the ships.

The mass within them seemed to evaporate and disappear.

The Contingency hurriedly mobilized living metal to repair the ships.

However, soon, another ripple was set off in the structure of the universe.

【"Error! Error! Error!"】

【"The current vacuum speed of light is 440 million meters/second!! An increase of 50% compared to the standard speed of light!!"】

【"Mass evaporation phenomenon detected, fleet mass has lost 55.5%."】

In the blink of an eye, tiny holes appeared densely on the ships of the Contingency, and more than half of the mass evaporated out of thin air.

At this moment, the Contingency observed that the starlight in the universe was several times brighter than before.

The energy output efficiency of the sun also increased violently, and the speed of light changed again...

【"Error! Error! Error!"】

【"The current vacuum speed of light is 590 million m/s!! An increase of 200% compared to the standard speed of light!!"】

34. 【Don't Break the Fourth Wall, You Little Smarty】

【"Error! Error! Error!"】

【"The current vacuum speed of light is 590 million m/s!! An increase of 200% compared to the standard speed of light!!"】

【"Mass evaporation phenomenon detected, fleet mass has lost 75%!"】

As the starlight in the distance became more dazzling, the speed of sub-light navigation became faster and faster, and the power output of the stars continued to rise.

A hair-raising and unbearable low hum came from the ships of the Contingency.

It was as if matter itself was wailing because of its own dissociation.

Irregular holes crawled over every ship of the Contingency, just like stones in the desert that had been eroded by strong winds for thousands of years.

Fragmented, scattered, and evaporating with the wind.

In just the blink of an eye, three-quarters of the mass of the Contingency fleet evaporated out of thin air.

This kind of attack did not come from the material world, nor from the psionic realm, and it was not the Path power familiar to the sentient beings of the universe.

Instead, it came from the change of the laws of reality itself, which was impossible to guard against.

This attack launched by directly overwriting the laws of reality made the sentient beings of the universe feel like their brains were about to burn in an instant.

Only a few smart brains could understand what happened at this moment.

Herta looked at the scene on the light screen with some fanaticism.

"Screwllum, do you see it? This kind of technology that directly edits the laws of reality is not even possessed by Nous."

"Do you still remember the name of that professor at Truth University... the one named Ratio?" ===== CHAPTER 24 =====
