On the other side, the news of the Beyond Grade A meeting also reached the hands of the various Supercluster Civilizations and attracted the attention of the upper echelons.
Ancient Star Desert, Star Arc Civilization's mother planet.
"An unprecedented energy control Esper … This kind of rumor won't appear out of nowhere. Investigate and confirm the authenticity of the information as soon as possible! "
The Star Arc Civilization's leader had a heavy heart.
In the past few decades, the Red Empire's development had been too smooth. It was like they had entered a golden age. No advanced civilization was not envious.
The dynasty already had people like the Dark Emperor and Black Star. Now, they had Gaud, who had a bright future and was even a direct descendant. This news was undoubtedly bad news for the Supercluster Civilizations. Every time the three Universal Civilizations added a talent with potential, the pressure on the Supercluster Alliance would increase.
Back when Traveler was publicly executed by the dynasty, although his good brother Modo took the blame for no reason, it was impossible for the Star Arc Civilization's leader not to be angry when he saw his own loyal subordinate being executed by the dynasty. However, considering the big picture, he held it in.
If he could get rid of Gaud and kill the dynasty's future national pillar, Traveler's revenge would be avenged, and the dynasty would pay the price for what they did back then …
The Star Arc Civilization's leader's eyes flickered. In the end, he sighed softly and suppressed the impulse in his heart.
"Forget it. The situation in the Flickering War isn't optimistic. The alliance is already in a difficult situation. It's not wise to provoke a Beyond Grade A to participate in the war. The situation doesn't allow us to take the risk …"
Currently, there were no Beyond Grade As participating in the Flickering War. The three Universal Civilizations had promised not to use their direct descendants first, which was one of the few good things for the Supercluster Alliance. Once they broke the rules and attracted a Beyond Grade A, their situation would only get worse.
The Flickering War was the Supercluster Alliance's faint hope of turning the situation around. Comparing a Beyond Grade A to the strategy of the civilization, he naturally knew which was more important.
The three Universal Civilizations controlled the resources of the explored universe. The strong would become stronger, and it was a virtuous cycle. The latecomers would develop under restrictions and would never be able to catch up with the others. The gap would only grow bigger and bigger. This was the trend of a civilization's development. Killing a Beyond Grade A would not help at all.
If they completely failed in the Flickering War, revenge would be worth some interest. However, the risks of this operation far outweighed the benefits, so of course, he would not do it.
"Whether it's Gaud or Black Star, let them be." The leader of the Star Arc Civilization shook his head. "I just don't know what the other Supercluster civilizations are thinking. I don't think anyone will take the risk. As for Radiance and Ethereal, it's unlikely for them to have infighting at this time … right? "
…
Somewhere in the Primeval Star River, in a secret base of the Mecha Empire.
Manison deactivated the remote projection and turned on the virtual screen. He pulled up Gaud's information that was circulating on the internet. His fingers tapped on the armrest of the chair as he pondered.
"Gaud … I've never heard of this name before. He's not a Beyond Grade A seed from any Star Field. Now that he's appeared out of nowhere, it means that he's been secretly nurtured by the dynasty. The last person with a similar experience was Clottey, who had the ability to control dark matter.
The moment he appeared, he was exposed … Normally, the three Universal Civilizations would publicize the abilities of new Beyond Grade As, but the dynasty requested Gaud to keep it a secret. This is something that even Clottey did not receive. This means that this guy's Esper Ability is extremely special. His ability to control dark matter might not be fake. Interesting. "
A look of interest flashed across Manison's eyes.
If it really was such an insane ability, he would indeed be tempted. If it was in the past, he would most likely try to plot against Gaud, capture him, and train him as a Felon.
However, he had already decided to wash his hands of the past. If not for special circumstances, he would not create new Felons. Otherwise, he would not be able to have a foothold in the association. Black Star, that b * stard, was always talking about his dark history. He was so disgusted that he wanted to hang Black Star up and give him a good spanking.
"Let's wait and see first. Gaud will definitely show his ability in the future when he wants to build up his reputation. He won't be able to hide it. Maybe before he leaves the Flickering World, there will be people who can't wait to spar with him."
Manison suddenly narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself in a low voice.
"So many Beyond Grade As and armed fleets have been staying in the Flickering World all this time. It's convenient to deploy people. Right now, that's the most dangerous Star Field in the universe. It's the soil for all sorts of schemes … Hmm, I wonder if Radiance, Ethereal, and the Supercluster Alliance will do anything …"
…
In the Flickering World branch of the Limitless Financial Group …
"Another potential stock has appeared ~"
Sorokin crossed his hands under his nose and recalled what had happened in the meeting.
The way he saw it, Gaud had a bright future. With the dynasty's protection, he would definitely grow up smoothly and become a National Pillar in the future. The dynasty would definitely have high hopes for him.
"If I do it well, I might be able to trigger a second Tragedy of the Pinnacles …"
Sorokin thought to himself. He felt that this was a good opportunity.
If he used his hidden strength to secretly assassinate Gaud and infuriate the dynasty, he should be able to trigger a huge storm and break the situation that the association had worked so hard to create.
Although he had joined the association, he was the one who did not want to see the Beyond Grade As form an alliance the most. His goal had never changed. On one hand, it was to earn money. On the other hand, it was to reduce the number of Beyond Grade As with special privileges and create an environment that was beneficial to him.
Furthermore, Black Star's hidden danger was a thorn in his heart. He was used to hiding and instinctively wanted to get rid of everything that might expose him.
"If I attack Gaud, I might be able to find a way to frame Black Star and get him into trouble … However, he knows my background, so he'll definitely suspect me. I'll be in danger too."
Sorokin frowned.
Although he had this idea, it was very difficult to actually execute it. Black Star had no motive to attack Gaud at all.
In his eyes, even if he did take action, the dynasty would not suspect Black Star. It was almost impossible to frame him.
Before he came up with a detailed plan, he did not dare take the risk.
"I'll have to think about what to do in the future."
Sorokin's eyes sparkled, and he started to think of some evil ideas.
…
A few days passed very quickly. With the help of some people, the situation of the Beyond Grade A meeting was exposed. This time, not only did it circulate in the black market, but it also spread widely in the galactic society and attracted a lot of attention.
The topic of Super High Risk Esper Abilities was very popular. It sparked the interest of countless galactic residents, and the rumors became more and more popular. Although there was no solid evidence yet, under the secret guidance of some organizations, the galactic society seemed to have determined that Gaud's ability was' Energy Control '.
Although the various organizations were surprised, due to different considerations, no one took any action. They only stared at the three Universal Civilizations and the Supercluster Alliance, guessing if they would take action.
In the eyes of the various organizations, as long as these two factions did not make any moves, nothing would happen.
The changes in the outside world did not affect the dynasty's fleet. It carried Gaud through the galaxy toward the exit of the Flickering World.
In the luxurious training room of the spaceship, Gaud floated in midair, glowing all over. The sound of flowing water echoed in the air, and an energy tide was surging in his body.
After a while, he opened his eyes and took a deep breath. The light dimmed, and his body returned to normal.
Gaud stretched out his hand and flipped his palm. The next moment, a thin, faint black energy suddenly appeared and coiled around his wrist like a small snake.
He fiddled with the energy as a smile appeared on his face.
"Energy Control is indeed a so-called 'superior Esper Ability'. It's only been less than a month, and I've already deciphered half of the Evolution Energy's structure. I can create semi-finished products now. It's going smoother than I thought. If this continues, I'll be able to master this special energy very soon. By then, I'll be able to create it at will and turn it into a walking Evolution Cube … "
Every Esper's ability would have new effects when they entered the Beyond Grade A realm. Energy Control was no exception. As long as he could analyze the structure of a type of energy, he would be able to control that type of energy forever and be able to create it at any time.
The target of his control was not just the common types of energy but also special energy forms like Evolution Energy and Primal Esper Ability Entities. As long as he deciphered them, they would become his own ability. Every time he mastered an energy form, his strength would increase.
Not only that, but Gaud also had a vague feeling that when he grew to a higher level and mastered more energy forms, he would be able to create new energy forms out of thin air!
Even with his vast knowledge, he could not help but be shocked. The potential of this crazy Esper Ability was too terrifying!
"Primal Esper Ability Entities are hard to track, but Black Star seems to have two of them. I'm his colleague now, and he wants to build a good relationship with me. If I ask, he'll probably lend them to me … This is much easier than robbing."
Gaud was in a good mood. He felt that the air was so fresh, and the future was so worth looking forward to.
When he was a wanted criminal, he could only rob if he wanted good things. Now that he had jumped to the lawful faction, he finally felt the comfort of building relationships.
Gaud sighed for a while before opening the door and walking out of the training room. He was already used to the dynasty soldiers saluting him respectfully along the way.
When he returned to the command room, the captain came over to greet him.
"Your Excellency Gaud, we're already close to the edge of the fourth phase of the Flickering World. We'll reach the stargate entrance in two days. We'll pass through the Black Star Corps' territory and quickly cross the remaining Star Clusters."
"Hmm, thank you for your hard work," Gaud replied calmly.
"It's fine. It's my honor to serve you …"
The captain was very respectful.
However, before he could finish his sentence, the ship shook violently and abruptly exited from hyperdrive mode and came to a stop.
Bang!
All the staff present staggered from the inertia, and some even fell to the ground.
The captain held onto the table and shouted, "What's going on?"
Very soon, an operator replied with a horrified expression. "Captain, the spaceship's artificial intelligence has suddenly lost control. It automatically locked the engine, braked the emergency brake, turned off all detection radars, weapon arrays, shield arrays, and even disconnected the quantum network! We can't contact the other spaceships! "
"Is it an enemy attack?" The captain was furious. "How dare they attack the dynasty's troops! Activate the backup artificial intelligence immediately and regain control of the spaceship! "
The operator quickly returned to his post. After operating the spaceship, he was so shocked that he was covered in sweat.
"No … this won't do! All the spaceship's functions are frozen! "
The dynasty crew in the command room panicked. Gaud glanced at them and did not pay any more attention to them. He turned to look outside the porthole and frowned.
"Is the enemy coming for me?"
Gaud was surprised. He felt that this was the only possibility.
He had already analyzed the situation. The possibility of the various organizations attacking him was extremely low. He thought that his journey in the Flickering World would be peaceful, but he did not expect someone to really take the risk.
"It looks like the work of a Virtual Mechanic. Could it be the old man from the Mecha Empire? Tsk, this guy can't really be thinking of capturing me and making me into a Felon, right? He's already in such a situation, and he still dares to anger the dynasty? "
Gaud was shocked.
However, while he was shocked, he was not too nervous. He had too much experience in being ambushed. There was no fear in him at all.
Furthermore, he was not really a new Beyond Grade A. Although he was not as strong as he was in the past, he had inherited some things and had hidden extraordinary combat strength. This was one of his trump cards.
If the attacker was the Mecha Empire, he knew that he would not be able to beat them and could only think of a way to escape.
However, if the other organizations wanted to kill him and deal with him like he was a new Beyond Grade A, he could only say that they were courting death.
In his eyes, the only organizations that had the motive and ability to deal with him were Radiance, Ethereal, the Supercluster Alliance, and the Mecha Empire. It could not be anyone else.
With a thought, Gaud's Beyond Grade A perception spread out and covered the entire area.
"Let me see who wants to kill me!"
