Paradise of Demonic Gods

It was like what Fang Xingjian had seen. The world before him was like a world with an extremely high level of technological productivity.

The entire world was situated on a piece of metal land. This piece of metal land itself was a gigantic-scale spaceship that was one-tenth the size of the Sun.

The spaceship’s engine system ceaselessly supplied the entire spaceship with energy.

The young Hogan’s memories did not understand the principles behind the engine system. However, be it his parents, teachers, or friends, all of them said that this was some kind of perpetual motion machine which supplied all of the people on the land with an endless amount of energy.

Not only did this endless source of energy help this world’s people to change the environmental factors including the atmosphere and gravity, but it also made this world even more suitable for living. Through mass-energy conversion, the entire spaceship was also capable of producing its own food, maintaining the spaceship, and creating all sorts of tall buildings as well as high technological products.

It was like a small-scale universe that kept on expanding in all directions.

In fact, ever since this spaceship was born, it had already been through over 100 modification and expansion efforts.

The thing that Fang Xingjian was even more concerned about how this entire world belonged to one person—a woman called Catherine.

On this spaceship by the name of ‘Morning Star’, be it the spaceship itself, its energy, the variety of high technological products, right down to every inch of space, every breath taken, and every bit of sunlight, it all belonged to Catherine.

Ordinary citizens possessed nothing other than themselves. If they were to commit suicide or murder, it would be considered the most serious crime. They would lose themselves completely and become Catherine’s slave forever.

If other worlds were to have this world’s structure, the entire world would probably revolt and the people would rebel.

However, on the Morning Star spaceship, Catherine grasped the highest level of authority. Artificial intelligence would be constantly surveilling all the situations on the spaceship. She possessed countless weapons that could destroy cities, annihilate countries, and vaporize planets. Ordinary citizens were unable to put up any resistance at all.

“This Catherine already possesses everything that can allow her to be self-sufficient. So what’s her goal to nurture so many citizens?”

Fang Xingjian continued to read through the young man’s memories and gained some understandings.

In fact, even if there were no humans on the entire Morning Star spaceship, it could still be self-sufficient and did not require any human’s help. They were not even required to work.

However, Catherine constructed cities, set up schools, and selected talents based on certain systems, distinguishing people into different grades and ranks.

Talents of different levels could possess different levels of authority. They could even be equipped with all sorts of high technological weapons and gain more rights to command the lower-tiered citizens.

The most important part in nurturing human talent—or rather, the determining results—would be the strength of one’s spiritual ability.

However, the objective behind why Catherine was selecting people like this was not something that could be found in the young man’s memories.

“Spiritual ability?”

Just as Fang Xingjian was contemplating about these, the two flying devices had already brought him along and flown off rapidly, heading toward the location where they kept the arrested criminals.

Fang Xingjian’s gaze flickered slightly, and he suddenly said, “Wait a second. I request to take a spiritual ability test.”

The two flying devices instantly stopped, and an invisible ray swept through Fang Xingjian’s body. Immediately after, several small-scale robots that were the size of fingers flew around Fang Xingjian, stretching out many tentacles around his body.

“Spiritual ability test has started. Please freely release your spiritual ability.”

Spiritual ability was the greatest factor that determined the statuses and identities of the people in this world. It was also the most important result for the students in schools.

As long as one’s spiritual ability was high enough, then the suicidal crime the young man committed earlier could also be pardoned.

This meant that what Fang Xingjian needed to do now was falsify a spiritual ability result.

‘From his memories, spiritual abilities are just some kind of energy… Then…’

With a single thought from Fang Xingjian, streams of heat energy were emitted from his body. Then the tentacles that those robots extended out started trembling as they absorbed all the heat energy.

A short moment later, a voice rang out from the robots, “Level 1 spiritual ability. Please take the test again.”

‘Level 1? What kind of joke is that?’ Fang Xingjian frowned and found this strange. The amount of heat energy he released earlier was about the amount comparable to a tank’s main cannon. It was unexpected that it was only considered to be level 1 heat energy. Could it be that spiritual abilities had some kind of vast differences from heat energy?

Fang Xingjian looked at the tentacles that stretched out once again, gave it some thought, and decided to try releasing a greater amount of heat energy.

He doubled the amount of heat energy released. This time around, it was at the level of a Tomahawk cruise missile.

“Level 3 spiritual ability. Please take the test again for verification.”

Fang Xingjian thought, ‘That’s interesting. Based on my knowledge, there are over 100 levels of spiritual ability? To think that this is only at level 3? Do the people in this world really not have extraordinary powers?’

In young Hogan’s memories, extraordinary powers did not exist. Everything proceeded on based on ice-cold physical laws. There were no powers that could surpass the power of technology.

Fang Xingjian released heat energy once again to ascertain his level 3 spiritual ability.

After all, having level 3 spiritual ability was already sufficient to pardon the suicidal crime he had committed.

…

In the universe’s vacuum outside the metal land…

Fang Xingjian and the other three stood in the sky above the land and looked down at the massive spaceship which seemed to be boundless. Unfathomable gazes flashed in their eyes.

The Crown Princess laughed, “It’s interesting that this is a world ruled by a female sovereign. I wonder what kind of magnificent tale this is.”

The Silver Mage King frowned. “This woman is vicious, oppressing the world single-handedly and exploiting the people. This world isn’t stable. Even robots can’t be perfect. I’ve found many rebellious forces.”

Ulpian stroked his chin as if feeling very interested in the world before him. “In this world, Catherine is the only mistress. She is the mistress over everything in the world. Clearly, she’s the only one who could have possibly taken Earth away.

“However, won’t be able to just get Earth back.

“There are many valuable things in this world.” The corners of Fang Xingjian’s lips curled up into a smile. “But that Catherine isn’t someone to be trifled with. Everyone must be prepared.”

Each of the four top-notch experts started to gain an understanding of this world under their feet from different aspects. They communicated while standing in void space. It was as if they had come across a piece of treasured gemstone and were discussing how they should split it.

…

Just as the four top-notch experts were discussing how to conquer this world, Catherine was in a 10,000-meter-tall tower at the highest point of the spaceship. She casually tossed the metal sphere that contained Earth to the side like some kind of rubbish.

The sphere was caught by a force field before it got close to the wall and floated gradually in midair.

Behind the sphere, there were countless other densely-packed miniature planets that had been shrunk just like it had been.

Catherine said calmly, “Analyze this planet completely and find traces of that b*stard Fang Xingjian.”

“As you command.”

In that instant, countless rays scanned the miniature planet, and it instantly created a commotion on Earth.

Simultaneously, a message was sent into Catherine’s brain. Her brows were raised, and a vicious look appeared on her face. “There are still people, who are unafraid of courting death, coming here?”
