Chapter 942: Chapter 48: Purple Giant Star

On the seventh layer of the collection space, Gao Gong finally saw the Star Destroyer he had been longing for.

In terms of volume alone, the Star Destroyer was about the same size as a large starship, but at first glance, you could tell the difference between the two.

The silver-white hull had not a single seam, and overall it looked like a white knight encased in white armor, exuding an awe-inspiring, unfathomable aura.

"With an atomic-level repairable ship hull, a planet-level particle splitting furnace, superluminal laser propulsion sails, and star-destroying cannon, even among my collections, it’s a rare treasure."

Pai Daxing, or rather, the Collector gently stroked the hull with a sense of nostalgia:

"The Purple Giant Star really left behind some good stuff."

Gao Gong took a deep breath, placed his hand on the hull, and infused the Spark Power from Cybertron into it. The next moment, a silver-white energy pattern lit up on the hull, and high-temperature flames began to burn from the bottom, eventually enveloping the entire ship.

’Identity verification in progress...’

’Spark Energy matches 91.5%, connecting to the Planet Computer’s data—’

’Authorization activated, control room initiated, transfer of Ancient Mechanism authority... Mechanical Throne transfer... Black Hole Destroyer transfer... Mechanical Sovereign transfer... Mechanical General No. 1053’

Gao Gong only felt a powerful data stream pouring directly into his mind. This data was so strong that it filled up the ’biological computer’s data hard disk. Affected by this, the black Forbidden Throne tattoo once again appeared on Gao Gong’s body. The entire throne seemed to be pieced together with bloodstained swords, each representing an S-Level Radiation Beast, and under the operation of the biological computer, each S-level bloodline formed a ’virtual hard disk’ to carry the data stream transmitted by the Star Destroyer.

The Collector was slightly astonished at this scene; he didn’t expect the subordinate of the Purple Giant Star to have control over mutative biological power.

However, when considering the internal environment of the Mechanical Split Star, he was somewhat relieved.

Since obtaining the ’Star Destroyer’ inheritance right, the identity cannot be faked... Even if there were issues, the responsible person would unlikely shirk responsibility.

Sure enough, he sensed the aura of the ’Mechanical Sovereign.’

With the transfer of control, Gao Gong’s vision began to rise from the planet to the stellar vortex, then from the vortex into the star zone, one planet, a million planets, a hundred million planets...

Then, he saw a face.

A face filled with the entire horizon, engulfing the cosmos, covering the world, a metallic visage.

This metallic visage had no ordinary facial features, only a pair of purple eyes composed of stellar-level mechanical engineering.

These massive eyes descended.

The pressure of an advanced mechanical lifeform transmitted across several star systems.

Even fourth-tier bloodlines couldn’t withstand this pressure, feeling as if being thoroughly examined from inside out.

Fifth-tier Star System Sovereign, oppressing all civilizations within a star system, during their term, no civilization dared to challenge or ascend the ranks, not even among the Level 7 Civilization, which was considered a minor lord.

And General Cybertron, as the planet host, under her command, was just a grunt—a relatively formidable one.

The real play begins!

"Cybertron!"

Gao Gong stiffened, half kneeling on the ground, bowing his head, and said, "Your Excellency, Star System Sovereign."

Though he knew it wouldn’t be easy for the other party to let him retrieve the ship, seeing the principal for real, Gao Gong felt a twinge of nervousness.

The Information Mother is Tier 5, and the Star System Sovereign is also Tier 5, both are of the same echelon, even though the latter is a minor Celestial Calamity of the Information System, whether he can slip past still made Gao Gong anxious.

’Big Sister Deep Net, I really rely on you this time.’

"Open your data center, I want to enter it."

With the mogul’s words, data cables extended from the void, this kind of network connection clearly utilized the ’Cosmic Net’ of an advanced civilization, capable of connecting to any corner of the universe directly.

’Lackeys have no rights!’ Gao Gong cursed inwardly and opened his database without hesitation, allowing the insertion.

Generally speaking, new generation mechanical civilizations risen from mechanical revolutions, tend to emphasize ’rights,’ or rather ’mechanical rights.’

Whether it’s the first-generation mechanical revolution ’Subject Revolution,’ the second-generation ’Intelligent Machinery Crisis,’ or the third-generation ’Mechanical Cage.’

They primarily focus on breaking the performance limits of machineries, nurturing mechanical bodies into an evolving intelligent species.

In such civilizations, ’individuality’ and ’privacy’ are allowed to exist.

Assimilating individuality, to some extent, diminishes the possibility of evolution.

But for ancient-style mechanical civilizations, intelligent species itself is a false concept.

So it was that when the Purple Giant Star demanded to read data from Gao Gong, he had to consent immediately.

Meanwhile, in the unique space where the ’Civilization Evolver’ resides, Deep Net’s expression also turned more serious, her primary function as a cosmic relic is technological tree simulation, not creating illusions.

But she must fabricate a virtual ’timeline,’ seriously, this concerns whether the two can survive in this universe.

No Level 7 Civilization would allow her kind of ’cosmic relic’ to roam freely outside.

And both she and Gao Gong couldn’t withstand the pressure of a top-level civilization.

Fortunately, though she isn’t a professional, the other party’s Star System Sovereign isn’t a ’virtual invasion’ expert either.

The ancient civilization she belonged to was one renowned for brute force and destruction.

Moreover, Gao Gong is not facing her true form right now; they are separated by a long virtual network line.

Deep Net’s slender hands turned lightly, one after another ’Civilization Evolution Box’ collapsed, along with worlds of technological evolution, timelines were extracted and woven into a golden thread, one end connecting to Gao Gong, the other to this interstellar sovereign.

Don’t forget, one of the components forming this ’cosmic relic’ is the strange item known as the ’Destiny Weaving Machine.’

She only needs to slightly alter Gao Gong’s ’fate.’

For instance, changing Gao Gong’s identity to an avatar descending as a consciousness of General Cybertron.

This just so happens to explain Gao Gong’s abnormalities, as he seems able to ’predict’ things, possessing superior knowledge about some technology evolutions.

Honestly, Deep Net is also very curious about this, as Gao Gong’s performance doesn’t quite match that of a planet native, but more like a ’Prophet’ or ’Advanced Civilization Inheritor.’

When utterly bored, she once secretly explored Gao Gong’s ’real fate.’

However, it was nothingness!

This surprised her greatly because it only meant two possibilities, either the opponent’s fate level exceeds her evolutionary scope, or the opponent has no fate at all.

Back to the story, when the Purple Giant Star obtained all of Gao Gong’s ’memories’ from his mind, she showed a trace of dissatisfaction.

"Did you leverage the power of carbon-based life?"

Gao Gong quickly responded, "I vaguely sensed an anomaly spreading in the information, mere mechanical flames couldn’t suppress it, I must delve into the experimental field to seek power capable of suppressing them."

The Purple Giant Star was silent for a moment, though unwilling to admit, their deficiency in resisting informational invasions was undeniable, but it wasn’t an excuse for the other party’s mutation.

Then again, if not for the other party’s recklessness, he couldn’t have possibly been the first, even the only one to issue a ’Supreme Being Crisis’ alert to her subordinate.

The evolution of pure mechanicals is indisputable!

But for now, let’s allow the other party a slight whim.

Just don’t bring them into the ’Ancient Mechanism Country.’

Seeing the silence, Gao Gong quickly added:

"Does Your Excellency know the truth behind the ’Supreme Being’?"

"The truth is not important," Purple Giant Star said calmly while browsing through Gao Gong’s ’memories,’

"What matters is that we have thwarted their scheme to invade the ’Ancient Mechanism Country.’"

Gao Gong rejoiced inwardly.

It’s not that he had any significant allegiance to the ancient Level 7 Civilization of Ancient Mechanical Civilization.

But this scheme being thwarted meant he was a hero, a great hero!

In Gao Gong’s memory, the Ancient Mechanical Civilization was among the few civilizations that perished before the descent of the three great Celestial Calamities, collapsing in a major storyline mid-game, he wasn’t clear whether the demise was related to these ’Supreme Beings.’

But intuition told him, there might be a connection.

"Only, your virtual personality seems to have changed significantly?"

Just as Gao Gong was pondering, the surprised voice of Purple Giant Star emerged once again.

"I remember when you were manufactured in the Stellar Factory, not that much content about species mating was implanted?"

Gao Gong’s heart skipped a beat.

Oh no, the unsuitable-for-children content had been seen.
