Chapter 111: You Want to Dance Too?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When the civilizations in the galaxy detected that the doomsday wave that had appeared not long ago had appeared in the territory of the Watchers, everyone showed a complicated expression.

There was shock, confusion, and hatred. They could not imagine that the Lost Empire, which had achieved the highest level of development and had no other needs, would still choose to sign a contract with “the End of Reincarnation”.

It was understandable that the Duncan Race did it for development, but why did the Watcher do it?

This time, all civilizations felt the seriousness of the situation. The rings formed by the Duncan Race alone was enough to put the galaxy in danger. What would happen with a Lost Empire that was bountiful enough? Can the Administrator resolve this too?

Even though the civilizations had tried their best to think of the Administrator as extremely powerful, they could not help but become pessimistic when faced with the rings formed by the burning of an entire Lost Empire’s legacy.

“In any case, this is a disaster that the Milky Way needs to face. If the Administrator falls, then we will not be spared. Although we are weak, at least our will to survive is strong…”

These civilizations immediately opened all their borders and gathered all their fleets to fight against the incoming rings.

The other civilizations that were prepared had already let the ‘tinder fleets’ leave their borders. If the crisis could not be resisted, these refugees would rebuild their civilization after a long time.

When they realized that the Milky Way faced not just internal struggles, but there were many more terrible threats, they were ready to go into exile at any time. As long as there was hope for survival.

Other than these civilizations, the Voyager also reacted to the matter.

They had long guessed that the Watcher had signed the contract. After the settlement was over, they would be able to turn defeat into victory.

However, the Voyager didn’t seem to be that happy. Instead, they felt somewhat sad that their old rival was finally finished.

Even though they did not manage to end the other party with their own hands, they had won no matter what. Living long enough was also a manifestation of strength. This was the victory of the artificial forms.

Meanwhile, the vassal civilizations of the Voyager looked at their enemy’s territory, which had already turned into a deathly stillness, and were somewhat glad that they had made their choice.

If they had joined the Watcher, they would have already been dealt with.

Although they didn’t know why the “End of Reincarnation” would collect the debts of these vassals, they were all amazed at their luck.

Li Wenyuan, who was far away in a corner of the Milky Way, also detected the familiar fluctuation and cast his gaze toward the territory of the Watcher.

He didn’t expect that this ancient civilization had also signed a contract with the End of Reincarnation. Judging from the magnitude of the fluctuation, the rings this time might very well be beyond imagination.

However, he didn’t find it troublesome because of this. Instead, he carefully observed where the power formed by the settlement went.

The rings did not form directly above every planet with a large population as before. Instead, tremendous psionic energy began to gather in the Ancient Heavens, the former parent galaxy of the Watcher.

“Let me see what will happen this time…” Li Wenyuan continued to pay attention to the movements in the Ancient Heavens.

And the instigator of all this – the high priest of the Watcher – sat in the center of the temple, looking up at the ceiling.

At this moment, the dome of the ancient hall slowly opened, and the extremely weak light of the star shone on his face.

The purple mist shrouded the planet, leaving only a small gap here, as if it was specially prepared for him.

In the space above, the power extracted from the entire Lost Empire, five vassal civilizations, and the Void Realm Siphon formed a glowing canopy in this galaxy.

All the planets were below this canopy. Looking up, one couldn’t see the edge of it at a glance.

However, if one observed from outside the galaxy, they would find that a huge ring had already enveloped the galaxy.

The light emitted from the edge of the ring surpassed most stars, and it shone like a supernova in the star map.

In a million years’ time, some indigenous civilizations might observe a star bursting with dazzling light.

They might think that this phenomenon was the end of the star, but in fact, it was the ring that was shining.

The glowing canopy inside the ring was in a faint state. If one looked carefully, they could see the surging scenery of the void realm inside.

At this moment, the distance between the void realm and the real universe was unprecedentedly close. However, this thin membrane was like a natural moat. With just this power, it was impossible for the void realm to truly enter this universe.

However, this was enough for the high Priesp.

The energy required to allow an entire civilization to ascend together was too huge. It was difficult for him to imagine how it could be done.

However, if he was the only one who could ascend…It should be enough.

At this moment, a beam of light had already descended from the ceiling of the hall, shining on the high priest’s body. As the light surged, his body began to slowly float up, flying towards the light screen that enveloped the entire star system.

At this moment, he, who was about to transcend and ascend to the void realm with his physical body, recalled his life.

Ever since he was born, he had grown up under the influence of the story of the Enlightened Ones.

Although no one knew the specific feat of the Enlightened Ones, it did not prevent fans from making up stories that were deeply rooted in their hearts.

The young high priest had long been attracted by these stories and vowed to dedicate his life to pursuing the Enlightened Ones.

Compared to the other believers, he was the most fanatical one.

He had been working hard for this. While he trained hard, he also constantly interpreted the contents of the Oracle.

He believed that an ancient secret must have been hidden in the oracle.

However, the more he searched, the more desperate he became. He realized that the Enlightened Ones seemed to have really disappeared and was no longer in the Milky Way.

He had a lot of guesses about this, such as “extinction” or “going to other galaxies”.

But he could not accept either. He did not believe that the powerful Enlightened Ones would die, but his best technology still could not allow him to cross the distance of the galaxy and go to another galaxy.

His fanatical beliefs gradually became extreme and distorted. He still looked the same, but he had convinced himself and even convinced most people with his own ideas.

He and the others firmly believed that the Enlightened Ones had collectively gone to another world through the void realm. For this reason, it was necessary for them to transcend physically, not spiritually like in the past.

They would use the void realm as a springboard to catch up to the Enlightened Ones.

However, the high priest did not say everything. The power needed to break through to another world was terrifying.

The faithful believers did not doubt the high priest, but the high priest used everything in the entire civilization as the source of power, using the huge energy waves brought by the settlement to allow him to reach the ‘other world’.

He was rising faster and faster, and the buildings on the surface were becoming smaller and smaller in his eyes.

However, the powerful psionic energy allowed him to directly ‘feel’ everything on the surface. He saw a civilization that had been destroyed, but his heart was unperturbed.

“This was a necessary sacrifice. I will explain your achievements to the

Enlightened Ones, and all of you will be remembered as great devotees…”

His final gaze was directed at the temple. This was the place where he had spent half his life.

At the same time, there was also a statue of a Saint that he had brought from the Holy Land. It represented the Enlightened Ones.

The statue had miraculously not been damaged in the Holy Land, which attracted his attention. However, he soon realized that it was because his old friend, the Prophet Zachlan, had done some protective treatment for the statue.

All the secrets hidden within were exposed to his powerful psionic senses. Finally, he found a string of warning words left behind by Zachlan.

“You’ve already forgotten the teachings of the Enlightened Ones. You will fail.”

The high priest knew very well that this was the “prophecy” that Zachlan had given him, but he laughed it off.

This was because he was the one who had promoted Zachary’s identity as a prophet. He knew that this person who was said to have many divine powers in the legends of the believers was just an ordinary person. His psionic potential could not even compare to ordinary people.

Was there any need to listen to the prophecy of a ‘weakling’ who could not even take flight with psionic energy?

However, he still placed the statue of the Enlightened Ones in the temple to give it a sense of ritual.

He wanted to attempt to replicate their great cause under the witness of the Enlightened Ones.

Finally, he arrived at the edge of the ring.

The void realm was right in front of him, and the bubble-like membrane seemed to be about to burst with a slight push. At that time, he would truly be “extraordinary and saintly”.

He took a deep breath and touched the thin film with the scepter in his hand.

The universe wouldn’t change because of a small matter, just like how he couldn’t move this thin film now.

He burned all of his psionic potential and summoned the psionic power around him that was getting denser and denser, almost tangible. He wanted to open a passage that could accommodate him alone, but he failed.

“How is that possible? It shouldn’t be! We have entered the void realm countless times and explored the boundary between this place and us. This power is enough to open a small hole!”

The high priest touched the ring in disbelief, but found that the thin film did not move at all.

The scenery of the void realm inside began to change rapidly. Amidst the surging purple nebula, he seemed to be able to see the existence that had signed a contract with him.

The ethereal ring shone in the void realm, but this light seemed to be mocking in the high priest’s eyes.

The End of Reincarnation didn’t care about the trivial matters of mere ants. It only cared about lending and collecting debts, but some of the whimsical actions of the “ants” did attract its attention.

It also liked to have fun, especially fun related to certain guys.

The ring that enveloped the galaxy began to dim, and the chaotic psionic energy was no longer guided by the high priest and began to be absorbed by the ring.

However, the high priest was still frantically trying to open the passage. His exhausted body clung to the ring and refused to let go.

“No, no! My calculations were definitely correct!” His usually calm face had now become extremely ferocious. He did not understand why everything went smoothly, but in the end, when he should have witnessed the result, something went wrong.

On the other side of the light curtain, the scenery of the void realm was still changing, as if the entire void realm was laughing.

However, the high priest’s final attack on the light screen finally produced a slight change.

He saw the words of the Oracle slowly appear where he had been struck. He thought that this was a sign that he was about to be accepted, but in fact, nothing happened.

If Li Wenyuan was here, he would be able to tell what was written on it. However, he would definitely hush after reading it.

Because it said:

[In order to prevent future civilizations from repeating the mistakes of the Czero or using the void realm to do bad things, we have strengthened this boundary.]

[The backdoor is enough to gain benefits in the void realm. Please make good use of it. After all, the void realm is also a part of the universe.]

[However, there is still a way to temporarily open up this boundary. Please use the ‘Genuine Human Megastructure’.]
