Chapter 509: Puppet

The Purple Book in Karl's hand suddenly shone brilliantly and slowly floated up from his hand.

It then arrived at the breach in that universe and began to slowly change shape.

In the blink of an eye.

The Purple Book turned into a massive purple vortex.

Karl shouted excitedly at once.

"It's the Universe Gate! The Universe Gate has appeared! This proves that the Universe Barrier of the Zhu Yuzhou has been broken, and the universe and the Void have connected!"

"Next, let us welcome the great Void Era!"

After saying this, Karl actually began to grow nervous.

He first straightened his attire.

Then he had Nusa and Carlisle straighten theirs, ignoring only Ge Xiaolun.

Ge Xiaolun, being ignored, was not angry, nor did he have much of a reaction; he just quietly retreated backward.

The Void gave him a very bad feeling, as if it wanted to devour something, and then there was the Universe Gate before him...

It made Ge Xiaolun feel in his heart as if he were being invaded, and he wanted to leave this place.

In just a moment, Ge Xiaolun had put a considerable distance between himself and the three of them, Karl included.

But even so, Karl said nothing.

Soon the three of them finished tidying their attire, and Karl took the lead, approaching the Universe Gate with a look of reverence.

It was also at this moment.

The purple Universe Gate began to move slowly, and soon it formed a purple vortex.

Subsequently, a figure wearing a purple hood, dressed in tight-fitting clothes, and wrapped in purple energy passed through the Universe Gate and arrived before Karl.

When Karl saw this figure, he was already trembling with excitement.

"It is you! The Void Deity who once guided me!"

"We have finally met again!"

The figure did not speak, but stood there silently, a pair of eyes filled with Void Energy flickering, as if it were thinking.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of speaking, Karl did not continue to speak either, but stood there quietly.

A long time passed.

The figure finally spoke.

"Karl, you have done well."

"The Void will protect you, and will protect your universe, to prevent the arrival of the Ultimate Fear."

Upon hearing this, Karl immediately felt relieved in his heart.

Based on these words alone, he could conclude that the Void Deity's attitude toward this universe was friendly.

He had worried for nothing before about the Void Deity's attitude toward him.

"How should I address you?"

The figure replied slowly: "Just call me Prophet, Karl."

"Prophet?" Karl repeated softly.

"Come to think of it, you really are like a prophet."

The Prophet did not speak, but walked slowly forward until he reached the location where the Stellar Domain had once existed, and then he stopped.

He looked around, surveying the entire universe.

After a long while, he spoke up: "Your universe looks very rich, and also very young."

"Opening a Universe Gate requires extremely massive energy; just in terms of stars, it requires the energy of tens of thousands of Supergiants."

Karl, standing behind, immediately stepped forward.

"Prophet, you are correct; opening the Universe Gate does indeed require the energy of tens of thousands of Supergiants."

"But our universe possesses Super Genes; these Super Genes are extremely excellent, to the point that they can briefly break certain laws of physics."

"Thus, we successfully opened the Universe Gate using only thousands of stars."

"Is that so." The Prophet nodded lightly. "Such excellent genes must not be devoured by the Ultimate Fear."

"I must say, everything you have done, Karl, is correct."

"I am satisfied with this."

A single word of satisfaction brought a smile to Karl's face.

"Thank you for your praise, Prophet."

"It is just that I would like to ask you, how will you transform this universe into the Void Era?"

"To ensure the Ultimate Fear never descends here? I feel that for the entire universe to become the Void Era, you certainly cannot do it alone!"

The Prophet nodded and generously admitted it.

"That is correct, I certainly cannot do it alone; I need your help."

"With your help, I can make this universe the Void Era."

Hearing this, Karl's eyes lit up brightly.

He needed his help?

That was truly great!

This meant that in the other party's eyes, they were not in a superior-subordinate relationship, but a partnership.

In that case, he could control more of the discourse, perhaps...

But before Karl could finish his thought, the Prophet suddenly raised his hand and gripped Karl by the neck.

"Pro... Prophet, what are you doing?"

The sudden situation made Karl somewhat flustered.

The Prophet merely said indifferently, "Doing nothing, just completing your final transformation to make you the Void's..."

"Puppet!"

As soon as the word "puppet" was spoken, Karl froze.

A puppet?

A puppet?!

How could it be a puppet?

Even at his worst, he should at least be a subordinate of the Void; why would he become a puppet?

At this moment, Karl's mind was in some Chaos.

He did not quite understand what had happened.

"Prophet, you are joking again; what is the point of turning me into a puppet?"

Karl forced a smile and said.

"I do not like to joke, I dislike it very much," the Prophet's deep voice came.

"Why turn you into a puppet? Because this was planned beforehand."

"A fellow as stupid and naive as you is truly rare; if not for you, where would we find such a rich Universe?"

"We have been hungry for a long time, and now it is time to eat. When we devour all life and everything in this Universe, this Universe will enter the Void Era, and the Ultimate Fear will never descend again!"

"And turning you into a puppet is for the sake of carrying all this out better. Do not resist, because you cannot resist!"

After speaking, purple light flared in the Prophet's eyes.

In an instant, it wrapped around Karl.

Seeing this, Carlisle and Nusa on the side immediately rushed forward to stop the Prophet's actions.

However, the two of them were truly not worth mentioning in the Prophet's eyes.

Especially Nusa; the Prophet merely glanced at him.

He then uncontrollably floated up slowly, and then with a bang, exploded into a mass of the purest Void Energy.

Finally, with a forceful inhale, the Prophet sucked it all into his stomach.

Nusa, dead!

As for Carlisle, he did not suffer as miserably as Nusa, but he was not much better off.

A mass of purple energy instantly wrapped around him.

Soon, Carlisle was transformed by the purple Void Energy.

In the blink of an eye, the transformation was complete.

Carlisle turned into a mass of twisted monster.

The Prophet shook his head.

"Tsk, it seems this fellow was a product of unstable genes to begin with; truly a redundant transformation."

After speaking, he cast his gaze once more toward Karl, who was wrapped in Void Energy.
