"Huh?"
Princess A Xia was back to herself from her trance and looked at Theresa in surprise.
Her jadeite and silver-white eyes were rippling with a strange light, as if she was calculating something quickly.
"Your blood is indeed weird. It does not look like the features of the residents of the Emerald Continent after ten thousand years of evolution," Jade said.
"Where are you from exactly, a carrier of the mysterious Witch gene?"
"I'm sorry. I did not mean to hide my origins. It's just that I have to be cautious because of the great mission on my shoulders. But now, it seems pointless to keep it a secret," Theresa said.
"It's true that I'm not a resident of the Emerald Continent or the Bloody Battle Demon Sector. I'm not even a descendant of the crew of Emerald. I'm from a place named 'Pangu universe'. In other words, I'm a descendant of another fleet in exile thousands of years ago.
"Fortunately, the 'Pangu universe', my world, boasted more resources than the 'Emerald Universe' that you're in. Their civilization had developed to a rather advanced level again, too. They could produce starships as large as planets and boast fleets as vast as stars. Not satisfied with exploring the universe they were in, after receiving the signal from the Alliance of Resisters at the center of the cosmos, they began to send a large batch of 'messengers' or 'scouts' such as myself to the boundless space zones around. Our purpose was to find the fleets in exile that had drifted to other universes in the past and regroup them to fight the Flood again.
"To be qualified to be such a messenger, I'm certainly not a nobody in the Pangu universe. In fact, I received the careful enlightenment of 'Supreme Li Yao', the ultimate expert of the Pangu universe. I experienced the decay, collapse, and rebirth of the Imperium of True Human Beings, the most powerful country in the Pangu universe. I manipulated destructive cannons and talked to a super artificial intelligence such as you. I didn't even consider the new emperor of the Imperium of True Human Beings to be a threat. One day, I would stomp on him brutally.
"I'm telling you this because I want you to believe that I know a lot of big shots in the Pangu Universe. They can definitely protect you and mobilize a lot of resources to counterattack the Jade Universe.
"Therefore, stop hesitating and retreat. Let's retreat to the Pangu Universe and rest first. We will ask the experts of the Pangu Universe to analyze all the information carried by the jade and upgrade the starships of the Pangu Universe with the technologies to build and repair Emerald. Then, we will arrive at the Jade Universe again with billions of soldiers. Even if Blackjack has three heads and six arms, he is destined to be blown into smithereens by our cannons!"
The more Theresa spoke, the more excited she became. Her face was flushed red, and she danced with joy, her saliva flying everywhere.
Princess A Xia was stupefied and couldn't believe her ears.
"Theresa, you, you …" She didn't know what to say.
"Sister A Xia, I'm sorry I didn't tell you the whole truth at the beginning."
Theresa stuck out her tongue. "But please understand that I had my reasons. I — I didn't want to end up like this, either."
Expressionless, Jade was deep in thought. Silver brilliance was spreading out of her body as she pondered for a long time.
"Analysis. The authenticity of the information is more than 90%. It is trustworthy.
"It is determined that retreating to the Pangu Universe is the most likely option to rebuild the fleet. It should be carried out.
"Alright. It's decided. We will leave this place in the escape capsules immediately."
Jade made the decision quickly.
This time, it was Theresa who was dazed. She didn't expect to persuade Jade so easily. She had thought that it would take her a lot of persuasion!
"You … you are willing to leave Jade just like that? Are you not afraid that the starship will be completely occupied by Blackjack?"
Theresa asked suspiciously, "You don't have to abide by the rule of 'I will live if the starship lives, and I will die if the starship dies'?"
"I will live if the starship lives, and I will die if the starship dies. That is the noble rule that all captains have to abide by. I am just the core control program of Jade. As long as I exist, Jade will not be destroyed. If the Pangu Universe you mentioned has more abundant resources than the Jade Universe, I can absolutely rebuild a hundred new Jade starships there. Or rather, I can simply inject myself into your starship and upgrade your starship from the software level."
Jade said, "Besides, while we were talking, the situation changed subtly again. Even if we completely awaken the Witch Gene, our odds of winning have plummeted to less than 10%. Such a odds of winning are not enough for us to make a desperate decision. So … let's run for our lives first!"
"What?"
Theresa was dumbfounded. "The odds of winning just now were 70% to 80%. Why has it plummeted to less than 10% so quickly? Your formula to calculate the strength of the enemy is too ridiculous! "
"It's not a problem with the formula. New mutations have happened to Blackjack. Look."
Jade stepped forward and adjusted the cabin wall to be transparent again.
Theresa and Princess A Xia immediately saw that a dark shadow smashed into the cabin wall like a cannonball. After a deafening explosion, ripples spread out. The hole on the liquid alloy was like an ugly scar that could not be healed for a long time.
The dark shadow collapsed to the ground like a pile of mud.
Theresa recognized it carefully, only to discover that it was a man whose face had been deformed with broken bones.
It was — it was Lord Kuba, the dominator of the Bloody Battle Demons and the arrogant Hell Exterminator when he first arrived!
Great Monarch Kuba was picked up by Black Jack with only one hand and thrown to the wall of the cabin as if he were throwing a discus. He did not have the strength to fight back at all until his bones and internal organs all exploded.
"How can this be?"
Theresa was shocked. "Wasn't Lord Kuba fighting against Blackjack in the beginning? Even if he was slightly weaker than Blackjack, he shouldn't have been so weak that he was trampled by Blackjack as easily as an eagle catching a chick!"
Then, behind Great Lord Kuba, who looked like a pile of mud, Black Jack's body was expanding, becoming more and more muscular. Every pore on his body seemed to be surging with the light of masculinity. If the tentacles that were waving crazily around him were ignored, he looked like a majestic god who had descended from the sky!
Even though there was a liquid alloy cabin wall between them, Theresa could sense Blackjack's burning gaze.
No matter how thick the cabin wall was, it was as thin as a matchbox and could not bring any sense of security.
"Just now, when Queen Medusa appeared in the crimson palace, before she could figure out what was going on, Blackjack's tentacles entangled her and sucked her dry," Jade said.
"Blackjack seems to have a strange superpower. He can increase his strength by devouring the vitality of the opposite sex. No matter what, Queen Medusa is one of the seven demon lords of the Bloody Battle Demons. Her vitality is hundreds of times stronger than that of normal demons. Blackjack evolved into a new form by sacrificing her life!"
