Chapter 92: Chapter 82: Goddess of Hope: The Association Is Too Strong! (2)

However, from the moment the first Void Spirit died, everything would change.

The fires of vengeance would be completely ignited!

This would happen not just to the ordinary warriors, but even the commanders were the same.

When Shen Yu from the interstellar world met those high-ranking commanders like Jiel Sheng again, he also saw the same thing in their eyes.

In fact, when Jiel Sheng and the others first met him, they didn’t say a word to Shen Yu at all; instead, each of them was obsessed with staring at the weapon in his hand, showing no difference from the previous warriors.

But since Jiel Sheng was the highest-ranking commander present, he still came to his senses quickly.

“How long will it take for this weapon to be widely distributed?” He looked at Shen Yu, full of eagerness. “Next, the guys down below will probably ask me this question eight hundred times a day. Can you give me a definitive answer?”

“Goddess of Hope?” Shen Yu inquired to the Goddess of Hope.

“This is a biological weapon. Mass production won’t be very fast, but the entire civilization will give its all to produce it,” the Goddess of Hope replied.

“It’s actually a biological weapon.” Jiel Sheng was a bit surprised, but still nodded in understanding.

With the technology of Human Civilization, biological production is actually less efficient and more costly than mechanical manufacturing.

For example, cyborgs’ production technology is far inferior to robot manufacturing.

The latter only requires machining and assembly, but the former must reserve enough time for cells to grow.

No matter how much you accelerate it, it can’t compare with robot production.

Still, as long as the breakthrough from zero to one is achieved, the subsequent technical challenges always become much easier.

So, although Jiel Sheng and the others were impatient, they could endure it.

They had endured this for twenty-three years already.

At this moment, Shen Yu noticed that the Goddess of Hope had made the news of the new weapon public to the entire Human Civilization.

“No need to keep it secret?” Shen Yu asked.

“Right now, we are lacking effective means to intercept the Void Spirit Race’s movements and communications. After the first deaths, the Void Spirit Race will quickly receive frontline reports, and the weapon information can’t be kept secret. So it’s better to actively boost the battle morale of all humans,” the Goddess of Hope explained.

Shen Yu was silent for a moment.

Indeed, although Human Civilization had taken a crucial first step, it was only the first step.

The overall situation was still not optimistic.

Not to mention, keeping an eye on enemy movements was a second major challenge.

We have weapons, but we still have to hit the target.

If you can’t see, it’s just as hard to fight—especially in the early stages when Eye Worm Weapon energy is scarce, making large-scale attacks difficult.

“If only we had technology for scouting the Void Spirit Race.” Jiel Sheng said regretfully, “Then we wouldn’t even need that many anti-Void weapons—just give us ten thousand units, no, even five thousand, and we’d be confident in keeping at least half of these ten thousand Void Spirits!”

As Jiel Sheng said this, his eyes were locked onto Shen Yu.

He’d noticed it while watching the video.

This guy seemed to possess some scouting methods!

Even his defensive abilities were astonishing, completely ignoring the Void Spirits’ memetic weapons.

Otherwise, having just weapons alone wouldn’t be enough for one person to take down more than a dozen Void Spirits.

To be honest, Jiel Sheng didn’t know what Shen Yu’s exact role and contribution was in those two projects, but at this moment, he wished he could worship Shen Yu as the Savior!

If he had that set of capabilities, he’d show the Void Spirit Race what true death is!

But the Goddess of Hope responded first: “There is a direction for reconnaissance methods, but the conditions are extremely difficult. So far, only this person is a successful case, and there is no sign it can be replicated any time soon.”

Jiel Sheng and the others instantly stood in awe.

This guy was not only a Civilization Level researcher, he’d even used himself as a test subject!

No need for that.

Seriously, no need—let us do it!

For an experiment like that, there’d be as many volunteers as they needed.

Unfortunately, if it can’t be replicated soon, it’s a tough problem.

Jiel Sheng and the others all let out a sigh in their hearts.

“This batch of Void Spirits is probably going to escape.” Jiel Sheng said. “Their deep strike relies on our inability to stop them. Now that they’re in danger, it’s highly likely they’ll retreat. Without means of reconnaissance, we also have no way to intercept them.”

The Void Spirit Race’s movement techniques were also extremely advanced.

They relied on a kind of special signal transmission device.

However, there were distance limitations.

The further the distance, the less efficient it became.

This batch of about ten thousand Void Spirits, if they all retreat, will still need at least ten days.

If only we could spot them, and have another small batch of experimental weapons—not many, just a few thousand units—we’d definitely have a chance to keep more than half!

What a pity.

After this, those guys probably won’t dare to go deep into our lines so recklessly again.

“Actually, there may still be a chance.” Shen Yu suddenly said at that moment.

Immediately, everyone looked up at him.

Could there really be any chance?

Relying only on Shen Yu, it’s hard to find ten thousand Void Spirits scattered across an entire factory planet.

“There’s a chance to conquer, produce, and deploy scouting technology for the Void Spirit Race in a short time.” Shen Yu’s eyes grew brighter.

The people in front of him looked as if he were speaking nonsense.

It’s not that they didn’t trust Shen Yu.

But the Goddess of Hope already said there’s no way to replicate the tech any time soon, and this kind of tech, at minimum, is S4 Level!

Even if it existed, production and transport—even going as fast as possible—couldn’t get it done in just ten days.

But now, Shen Yu truly saw a possibility!

Because, ever since he killed the first Void Spirit, massive amounts of Gray Mist had surged forth in the Gray Mist Space!

A total of fifty million units.

Clearly, those Void Spirits planned to escape, and didn’t dare keep slaughtering before fleeing.

In other words, Shen Yu had already changed the fate of fifty million soldiers, saving them successfully.

Even after handing over forty percent to the Association, there were still thirty million units left for him to allocate freely.

So, in Shen Yu’s world, how should the Gray Mist be used?

Truth is, Shen Yu had already considered this.

Technology.

Yes—the greatest advantage of Interstellar Civilization is technology. Unlike the original Shen Yu, who distributed Gray Mist to strengthen warriors’ Power, that doesn’t suit him.

His world should focus on technological breakthroughs—like with the Eye Worm Weapon, any tech breakthrough could quickly be turned into fighting strength under powerful productivity!

And just now, Shen Yu asked about this.

In the Martial Arts technology field, how many units of Gray Mist were needed to acquire tech for scouting Void Spirits?

The answer was: [One Hundred Forty-Three Million]

Far from enough.

But Shen Yu added another condition:

“Using Moonstone as its energy source.”

Yes, Moonstone was the special mineral from the city where Martial Artist Shen Yu’s father-in-law lived.

A natural material containing Yin Attribute Primordial Energy.

It greatly aided Primordial Spirit cultivation and was a kind of Primordial Spirit Domain energy.

Immediately, the Gray Mist requirement dropped to [Thirty-Six Million Four Hundred Thousand].

Almost one fourth!

So Shen Yu had dared to make such a bold claim.

He then addressed the others directly: “From here on it involves highly confidential content. Please leave and arrange the highest-level secure room for me. The Goddess of Hope should take charge of full-spectrum supervision.”

“Yes, arranging immediately.” The Goddess of Hope’s voice responded even faster.

Jiel Sheng, who’d been about to say something, was instantly stunned.

From the Goddess of Hope’s reaction, was this boss actually not joking?

However, what Jiel Sheng didn’t know was—

Shen Yu had just finished a brief conversation with the Goddess of Hope in his mind.

“The second individual reward from the Association has arrived. It can provide an initial solution to the reconnaissance tech problem!”

“Arranging right now!” The Goddess of Hope replied, without a trace of doubt.

She was probably the person who knew the full strength of the Association best, second only to Shen Yu in all Human Civilization!
