Chapter 34

"What is the Scourge Empire trying to do??"

The sentient beings across the universe couldn't help but be dumbfounded when they saw this scene.

Although the Poison Saint could corrode all armor, there was no need to go completely without protection, right?

Just as the sentient beings across the universe were feeling bewildered,

A group of people draped in dark purple robes, with eye icons embroidered on their hoods, suddenly walked to various parts of the Titan.

They covered their eyes with linen cloth, lit incense burners beside them, and let the burning incense permeate their entire bodies,

Then they knelt devoutly on the ground and praised in low voices:

【"Praise our transcendent and supreme Lord, praise the dignity of our eternal Wang Zuo."】

【"May the Emperor's divine eyes gaze upon us, may the Emperor's grace bestow blessings upon us."】

【"You are the Lord of Genes, bless our blood and flesh."】

【"You are the Lord of Psionics, sublimate our spirits and consciousness."】

【"You are the Source of Machines, bless our steel and silicon."】

The sound of devout prayers resonated throughout the ship, and the burning incense surrounded the entire Titan.

In the bewildered eyes of the sentient beings of the universe, the twelve Titans sailed into the Emerald Light Envoy galaxy and entered the pervasive poisonous gas.

"My god, they aren't trying to use faith to block the poisonous gas, are they??"

(Look closely at the illustrations in the previous chapters!! Come in and chat.)

48. 【Begin Prayer!】

Looking at the scene on the light screen, the sentient beings in the universe were full of bewilderment.

The Scourge Empire stripped off all the armor of the Titans and found a group of mysterious people draped in dark purple robes to kneel in various parts of the ship and pray in low voices.

The burning incense, filled with a mixed scent of sandalwood, orange, and gooseberry, permeated every part of the ship,

In an instant, the entire Titan was covered by smoke, and the smoke entwined between the ships seemed like chains linking the divine realm to reality.

【"Praise our transcendent and supreme Lord, praise the dignity of our eternal Wang Zuo."】

【"May the Emperor's divine eyes gaze upon us, may the Emperor's grace bestow blessings upon us."】

【"You are the Lord of Genes, bless our blood and flesh."】

【"You are the Lord of Psionics, sublimate our spirits and consciousness."】

【"You are the Source of Machines, bless our steel and silicon."】

Those people draped in dark purple robes prayed in low voices, praising the Emperor of the Empire,

Some passing crew members would also stop for a moment, outline a mysterious symbol with their hands, and pray and praise a few sentences in low voices.

【"Praise His Majesty the Emperor, you are the lighthouse leading the Empire."】

【"May the Machine Spirit be blessed by you and be forever joyful."】

【"May His Majesty the Emperor protect our spirituality so that we never fail."】

【"May the Emperor's protection make the engines roar forever, the light spears forever sharp, and the rays forever scorching..."】

All kinds of prayers rose and fell in the Titan filled with burning incense, overlapping into a unique movement.

And the sentient beings in the universe who were watching this scene couldn't help but have huge question marks pop up on their heads.

"No way... they are actually praying."

March 7th widened her eyes and said in disbelief:

"They are actually praying, asking their Emperor to bless the ship's engines to run efficiently, to bless the light spears to be sharp..."

"This... is this trying to use faith to defeat the Poison Saint?"

For a moment, March 7th's mind was in a mess.

"Is this really effective?" Dan Heng pinched his chin and frowned as he looked at this scene on the light screen.

"Can faith block bullets? Can it block poisonous gas? Can it block heat rays?"

Even the few forces in the universe that are most devout in their faith in Aeons probably wouldn't use faith as a weapon, right?

Employees of the IPC might pray to the Preservation for their ship's armor to be unbreakable,

Warriors of the Xianzhou might pray to the Hunt for their arrows to be swift and sharp,

Members of the Family might pray to the Harmony for their arrays to never collapse,

But no one would really rely on prayers to gods to kill enemies, no one would do such a thing...

Except for a few backward planets where people whose brains are muddled by religious superstition believe that faith can make them invulnerable.

"But the Scourge Empire is an advanced civilization that has flown into the stars and has incomprehensible technology, how could they..."

Dan Heng couldn't help but shake his head.

"I absolutely don't believe that faith can block poisonous gas!"

March 7th clenched her hands and said:

"If it really can, I... I..."

March 7th looked at the coffee on the table: "I will drink all three cups of Himeko's coffee!"

"I recorded it." Star, who was sitting on the side, suddenly shook her phone and said: "Don't go back on your word!"

"I will never go back on my word!" March 7th straightened her back and said: "This girl never goes back on her word!"

As they spoke, their eyes fell on the light screen again.

"Ratio, what do you think of this matter?"

Aventurine held the phone with great interest and asked Dr. Ratio on the other end:

"Do you believe that faith can defeat poisonous gas? Do you believe that faith can ignite engines? Do you believe that faith can heat up rays?"

Dr. Ratio on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and then said: "Fanatical faith is often the source of ignorance."

"Let me believe that the performance of a warship can be improved just by faith, I cannot accept it..."

As he spoke, Dr. Ratio was silent for a moment and then said:

"If it really happened, then I can only sigh that the truth is indeed something mortals cannot imagine."

In the Herta Space Station,

"Faith?"

Looking at the scene on the light screen, the corners of Herta's eyes twitched slightly:

"The Scourge Empire wants to use faith to block poisonous gas and defeat the Poison Saint? What kind of joke is this?"

If what the Scourge Empire showed before was just technology that Herta couldn't understand,

Then using faith to defeat enemies and improve fleet performance now is a situation that completely exceeds Herta's cognition.

"Wait..."

Herta had a vague guess in her mind,

She remembered that in the scene played by the light screen before, a mysterious power called psionics had appeared,

The scene where the Scourge Empire Emperor mobilized psionics to kill the Swarm at that time seemed to have some similarities with the scene before her.

"Could it be..."

Herta's eyes twitched violently,

"Is this faith actually useful?"

Just then, the Titan fleet on the light screen slowly sailed into the poisonous gas,

Facing the poisonous gas that could corrode zero-element armor, the Scourge Empire crew on the Titans actually had no fear at all,

Instead, they all lowered their heads and prayed devoutly to His Majesty the Emperor.

Some crew members even whispered about the people in dark purple robes kneeling and praying not far away,

【"The Empire attaches great importance to this operation. Did you see those psionicists? They are all blindfolded."】

【"This shows that they have all undergone psionic binding by His Majesty the Emperor, have been blessed by His Majesty the Emperor's psionics, and are the Empire's top psionicists..."】

(The illustration is delayed, you can flip through the previous few, there is an illustration button in the corner, click it to see.)

49. 【Do not be superstitious about reality, young civilization】

"Psionics?"

Herta, who caught the keyword in the crew's words, widened her eyes,

"It really is psionics! The Scourge Empire has indeed completely mastered this special energy..."
