Chapter 712 - 447: Celestial Mandate [2]
’However, from the looks of it, this "Creator" is unwilling to show themself!’
Hu Qi’s eyes glinted.
’At this point, I can basically confirm that the source of these Alien Origin Bodies is that mysterious "Creator."’
’Whatever their purpose may be.’
’Logically, after seeing their creations destroyed,’
’they should have at least made some kind of move.’
For them to remain indifferent after such a blatant provocation...
This development was rather surprising to Hu Qi.
’Were they delayed by something?’
’Or... are they afraid to appear before me?’
’But that’s a bit strange.’
’They can create these bizarre Alien Origin Bodies imbued with the Power of Rules.’
’No matter how weak they are, they can’t be *that* weak.’
’They must be a True God at the very least.’
’How could an existence like that be too afraid to even show their face to me?’
"What a pity."
Hu Qi sighed.
’Although my power is unrestricted in this world,’
’the world’s stringent Power of Rules still exists.’
’If this were any other world, I could easily destroy it.’
’I’d just force the person behind the scenes out into the open.’
’Simple and brutal.’
’There’d be no need for all this trouble.’
’But that won’t work in this world.’
’If you think of a world itself as a cage,’
’an ordinary world’s cage is just a cardboard box, easily destroyed and torn to shreds.’
’But this world is one cast from solid steel.’
’The difference between the two is immense.’
’Even for me, destroying it would be extremely difficult.’
’After all, if I could break this world, I wouldn’t be trapped here in the first place.’
’Furthermore, if I were to go on a rampage, I might even provoke a backlash from the world’s will itself.’
’If the mastermind behind the scenes then decided to make a move against me,’
’combined with the fact that my true body is confined to this world with no way to escape...’
’the situation would be extremely disadvantageous for me.’
’Therefore, the best method is to find the hidden culprit and kill them without provoking the world’s will to resist.’
’And then, leave this realm.’
’Of course, there’s another point.’
’Without sufficient benefit, I’m not willing to do so.’
’I’ve always believed myself to be a kind person. Unless absolutely necessary, I won’t harm ordinary people.’
’However, in my perception,’
’only people from the former Blue Star and Earth Star fall into the category of "human."’
’As for those from other worlds, they don’t count. They’re merely humanoid creatures.’
’Different skin colors among humans lead to different treatment, let alone these "people" whose very Genes are different.’
During this time,
he had tried other methods to find that person.
Methods like using the Celestial Destiny Core for divination, manipulating the Damaged Black Banner to communicate with the Mind Realm, and using the Primordial Eye to trace things back to their source had all been of little use.
The only one that had been somewhat useful was the Primordial Eye.
However, according to its investigation,
these Alien Origin Bodies were born from the very origin of this world.
But it couldn’t probe any deeper.
Still, this was within Hu Qi’s expectations.
’Since they have the Ability to create Alien Origin Bodies, they must have some tricks. Blocking my probes is hardly surprising.’
"In that case, I’ll play along with you. Let’s see how long you can hide!"
Hu Qi seemed to have thought of something.
A smile lifted the corners of his mouth.
He raised his head and looked at the sky.
His gaze seemed to pierce through the obstruction of the clouds and atmosphere, seeing the massive true body lurking in orbit outside Kapu Star.
The next instant.
BUZZ!
A streak of red light suddenly flared up in the sky.
In an instant.
The once-normal canopy of the sky was covered in red.
Even the light of the sun was submerged in the red glow.
The clouds were torn apart.
It was like a tattered scroll, threatening to ooze Crimson blood at any moment.
This phenomenon didn’t just appear in a single region.
The same thing was happening all over Kapu Star.
In a flash, everyone noticed the bizarre scene.
At first, most people didn’t think much of it.
They just considered it a rare celestial phenomenon.
But as time went on, people soon realized something was wrong.
...
In mid-air.
The engines of a private jet hummed steadily at an altitude of ten thousand meters.
Inside the cockpit.
Wang Wu’s fingers rested on the control stick as he watched the clouds stream past.
Piloting the plane alone through the clouds
gave him a sense of soaring above all living beings.
It was a feeling he found mesmerizing.
"...Confirm you have entered cruising altitude. Have a pleasant journey."
The controller’s formulaic voice came through the headset.
"Roger, thanks."
Wang Wu replied curtly and adjusted his headset.
He leaned back in his seat.
Wang Wu glanced at the instrument panel. All parameters were within the normal range.
Then, he activated the autopilot to follow the preset flight plan.
Kapu Star’s development in autopilot technology had reached an extremely high level.
It was fully capable of replacing human pilots and could handle some extremely harsh weather conditions.
Therefore, there was no need to worry too much on that front.
He unbuckled his seatbelt, got up from the pilot’s seat, and walked toward the cabin.
This was a small, custom-built business jet.
The cabin featured top-grade mahogany veneer, leather seats, and a spacious area that could comfortably accommodate seven passengers.
A small, dedicated bar was set up in the corner, its crystal wine glasses glinting with fragmented light under the soft cabin illumination.
At this moment.
Three young women in light summer attire were leaning against the sofa, chatting.
One had long hair and wore a slip dress, another had short hair and a backless top, and the third wore her hair in a high ponytail.
The sound of their Silver Bell-like laughter echoed through the cabin, mixed with the faint scent of perfume.
