Chapter 1546: The Dangerous Coverage

After the information storm subsided, Ang opened the largest page of his layered avatar, allowing everyone's consciousness to project into it. Then, everyone saw a god-star that was constantly collapsing—from a massive god-star, collapsing into a giant abyss, and then erupting with a huge pillar of information storm.

The information storm was invisible to the naked eye, but the green lightning entwined at the edges was densely visible. All the information and lightning eventually converged into that one question of unwillingness and despair: "What are you!"

"What... what happened? Ang, why does this layer of yours feel particularly large? Is this the star-soul layer belonging to Dilidis?" Nigris asked hesitantly.

Ang nodded.

Well, in the consciousness space, everyone could not see Ang's figure, but the information of his nodding appeared instantly in everyone's consciousness. Everyone knew he had nodded.

Nigris didn't even have the energy to complain. In the past, in the consciousness space, Ang would still say a few words. Now, he didn't even speak, simply transmitting the information of his actions to everyone's consciousness and that was it. He was so lazy that Nigris was truly impressed.

"What exactly happened? What was Dilidis howling at the end?" Nigris asked suspiciously.

Didn't Dilidis say he was going to erupt and give his memories and knowledge to Ang? Why was he so unwilling and despairing at the end? Could it be that he missed something?

Ang did not speak, but instead let the Dilidis in the layer slowly rotate, gradually demonstrating the whole event. It wasn't until the demonstration was finished that everyone realized what a dangerous trap Ang had experienced.

"If a god-star's own memories and knowledge only account for ten percent, and the other ninety percent of memories belong to another god-star, then is it still itself? Or is it the other god-star?" After watching the demonstration, Ursman asked this question.

This question hit the nail on the head, instantly allowing the still-confused crowd to realize Dilidis's sinister intentions.

Nigris slapped his waist and said in shock: "He thought Ang was a god-star, he tricked Ang into saying he would give him knowledge and memories, and then borrowed the information storm to cover Ang's consciousness with a massive amount of information, aiming to occupy Ang?"

"Is this feasible? Just a massive amount of information, not an invasion—can it achieve the effect of occupying another god-star?" Anthony asked.

The person most qualified to answer this question was naturally Luomu Luoer. Although he was only an attached star, he was still a god-star.

Luomu Luoer said: "Just as Ursman asked, ninety percent of the knowledge and memories belong to someone else—am I still me?"

"I think it shouldn't be anymore. Our god-star memories are too vast. From hundreds of millions of years ago to the present, the accumulated memories are very vast. Even if we want to recall them, it is not something we can recall immediately; we have to flip through our consciousness, find the memories of that period, and then open it."

"If every time I open a memory, it belongs to another god-star, am I still me? Certainly not. Therefore, this kind of occupation is feasible for a god-star." Luomu Luoer concluded.

After a pause, Luomu Luoer added: "Moreover, Dilidis has already entered the exhaustion period. Any method that can allow him to continue is feasible. And he didn't just use information coverage; at the end, he even projected his will over."

If it were purely sending an information storm, Dilidis would not have had that final question. Only when he crashed over and discovered that the other side was not a god-star but a ghost layer would he roar in despair.

Nigris shuddered: "Well, understood. The void is too dangerous. If Ang were really a god-star, waiting there foolishly, and then being sprayed all over with the information storm, and then having a bunch of memories that didn't belong to him stuffed in... just thinking about it is terrifying."

Anthony still didn't quite understand: "The master might be a god-star, or he might not be. This uncertainty is a huge risk. Why didn't Dilidis choose a safer target, such as those god-stars whose consciousness hasn't hatched?"

The god-stars with consciousness in the void have basically hidden themselves. Those that haven't hidden are either those without consciousness or ruthless characters like Dilidis in the exhaustion period.

Those god-stars without consciousness didn't hide. Dilidis could have completely chosen the brightest one to cover. Why choose someone like Ang whose background was unknown?

Luomu Luoer said: "Without a star-soul, he can't cover it. His information storm can at most spray an ownerless god-star, trigger a wave of star-corona, and later gestate some Starborn related to him, and then that's it."

"Oh, oh, oh, without a star-soul he can't cover it. So that's how it is, understood." So that was the reason. Anthony had overcomplicated it, thinking there were other restrictions.

Without a star-soul, he couldn't cover it; most of those with star-souls had hidden themselves. So Dilidis first used spatial tremors to send a group message and received Ang's response. In his mind, anyone who could respond to him with spatial tremors must be a god-star, right? Who could have imagined...

"Consider him unlucky," Nigris cursed, then turned to ask: "What about the harvest? Besides this large layer, is there any other harvest?"

"Knowledge, memories," Ang's voice sounded in the consciousness space.

"Uh, just that?" Nigris said with disdain.

Anthony couldn't watch anymore: "Lord Nigris, what do you mean by 'just that'? This was our original goal. The large layer was just an accidental harvest. Master, with this large layer as a skeleton, can we expand the other layers as well?"

Anthony and Ursman noticed that on Ang's layered avatar, the size of each layer was the same. After splitting and then fitting together, each layer was still the same size.

Now, this large layer was clearly many times larger than the others. After all, the other layers were repaired from fragments, while the large layer was pressed by a complete god-star star-soul.

If they maintained this state of one large and many small, the layers could not fit together. Either they had to expand the other layers to be as large as the large layer, or the large layer had to shrink back to be the same as the small ones.

Ang nodded.

Everyone's spirits lifted. It really was possible? Didn't that mean their layers could also grow stronger?

"Won't that require a lot, a lot of increments? Those left behind by Luomu Luoer might not be enough," Nigris said worriedly.

Ang nodded.

Just then, Anthony slapped his thigh and said: "I know why the exotic ghost doesn't want increments. Because his layers are already full. If he can't expand himself, absorbing more increments will only cause splitting, not strengthening." ===== CHAPTER 1547 =====
