Chapter 556: Hidden Civilization, Causality Weapon

On this side, the Legendary Player team is assaulting a new game, with no badges, no markers, no danger to life, purely enjoying the fun of the game.

For the three of them, this feels both very special and very familiar, yet mixed with something novel.

The three entered a meditative state; estimated, two days isn't enough for Zhang Jie to recollect bitterness and think of sweetness.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the battle between the Deep Space Knight and the Wandering Civilization has come to an end.

Without a homeworld, they have only a fleet; as the Deep Space Knight draws near, the fleet's destruction is imminent.

When Xiao Yi drove the knight's sword into the enemy leader's chest, this battle came to an end.

"The civilization behind me... will not... let you go..."

After triggering its last words, the opponent lost all breath; this was their strongest single combat power.

"Is there anyone else behind them?"

Xiao Yi frowned, a sense of déjà vu struck—beating the young brings the old, endless and boundless.

The calamities they cultivated were all transformed into Deep Space Knights, but their potential is clearly poor, after all they are not among the five major mainstream calamities.

The key is that even this Wandering Civilization can't control those five major calamities; they might end up raising themselves to death.

Xiao Yi sheathed her long sword, thinking to report this to Lin Ran later, but at that moment a strong feeling of being watched suddenly appeared, instantly making her skin crawl.

"Hidden Civilization?"

If that is indeed the entity behind them, it only shows they have offended an unsavory party.

Xiao Yi's psychic sense almost confirms that the other party is an advanced hidden civilization; she just doesn't know what their technological system is.

"Let's go back."

Just as Xiao Yi turned her head, a meteor shot forth at near-light speed, unbiased, piercing straight through her chest.....

"It is.... a causality weapon..."

"Ah, we finally cleared it."

"Yu Xiaomo, what were you thinking creating this shit monster? It's disgusting."

"Hehe... I never thought I'd end up playing with it."

Two speechless glances were cast at her; Yu Xiaomo embarrassedly scratched her head.

"Let's leave it at that for now; we'll fight again next time."

Zhang Jie rubbed his brow, feeling for the first time that time had flown by so fast—in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

At this moment, the battle report concerning the Deep Space Knight has just been transmitted back.

We had thought it was a sure win, but it ended with Xiao Yi suffering severe injuries.

A causality weapon is a kind of weapon that can ignore various accidents and factors, guaranteeing a hit; this time the one that struck Xiao Yi is clearly aimed at single combat power.

Fortunately, Xiao Yi is not really a normal living being anymore, so pure physical damage hardly inflicts a fatal blow on her; nevertheless, she is still severely injured.

A hidden civilization, a causality weapon—either one is a tough character hard to deal with.

"Do you need help?"

"No need, I'm now heading to the Star Sea Hall."

"The reason a hidden civilization stays hidden is precisely because they don't overly interfere in Star Sea affairs."

"Before certain events occur, they will not show up."

"Raising calamities and attacking leaders—I'd like to see how much gall this hidden civilization has."

Xiao Jiu spent three days reading novels on the side; now, about to leave, she's taken a bunch of resources—several tens of terabytes worth—back with her.

And the facts prove that Xiao Jiu, this Ship Girl, really doesn't play games; watching Zhang Jie and them play makes her eyes greedy, but once she gets started she can't even figure out the way.

So she can only huddle aside and read novels.

"Then be careful on the road."

"I'll accompany you."

Liu Delie swaggered into the warship; Yu Xiaomo wanted to speak but held back—actually she also wanted to go, only she isn't as idle as Liu Delie.

Now she truly regrets why she took on all the work herself; it would be nice to be idle all day like Liu Delie.

Well, actually she's also choosing work to numb herself.

Seeing Zhang Jie off into the distance, Yu Xiaomo's smile at the corner of her mouth gradually faded as she walked away behind.

It seems she can't just be an ordinary company CEO either.

Alliance, World Loop.

Xiao Yi's injury—if you say it's serious, it is serious; if you say it's not serious, it is not serious.

The bad news is, she was pierced through the heart, this extremely vital organ; the good news is, she is no longer human.

"Zhang Jie went to the Star Sea Hall; are you still okay?"

"I'm still okay..."

What pierced her body was a mysterious metal rod the length of a chopstick, bearing a strange force—an idealistic system's power.

Xiao Yi would rather call this power, within causality, "certain death."

Such power is often used to exterminate units with extraordinarily high individual strength; if a carbon-based lifeform of an ordinary civilization were hit by this, it could basically be declared done for.

"If it were me... I probably couldn't perfectly withstand it."

Lin Ran shook her head; if she were hit, she'd probably fare much better than the opponent, after all even she doesn't know how many layers her gene lock has reached.

"We... really have no problem?"

Xiao Yi is somewhat worried, after all offending a hidden civilization truly is a serious matter.

"No problem, Zhang Jie said before that the dark matter outside the World Loop is enough to resist a heat-death-level disaster."

"We are sufficiently safe."
