Chapter 568: Chapter 421: The Node of Destiny_2 Chapter 568: Chapter 421: The Node of Destiny_2 It was Zhuang Ying.
Zhuang Ying was now among the top three figures in the scouting departnt, having reached the Sixth Stage in strength. Under normal circumstances, he should have been stationed at the Mother Planet, overseeing scouting missions across Parallel Universes. However, his developnt path was not one of oversight; rather, he was more committed to frontline scouting missions.
Thus, upon his own request, he was eventually appointed an ambassador and assigned to this Universe.
At this mont, he found himself within a rather average Civilization.
This Civilization had once had its mont of glory. Technological developnt had reached into space, but the advancent did not bring positive effects. Instead, it fortified the power and strength of those in command, turning this civilization into a textbook “oppressor civilization.”
The people at the bottom of society lived lives worse than death.
However, that was all in the past.
About several hundred years ago, aligning with a similar fateful node as another Universe’s Space Undead outbreak, an Undead Crisis had also occurred here. It was an Undead virus that swept through the lower classes, directly threatening the upper echelons.
But the commoners who, by chance, had taken control of the “Cup of the Undead” at that ti, were eventually wiped out.
The Cup of the Undead was also subsequently collected and taken away by the Yatai people.
A potential widespread crisis that could have engulfed the entire Universe was thus nipped in the bud right at its onset.
“This is how fateful nodes diverge,” Shen Hao was clear on this, but what he wanted to know was whether there were other repercussions behind it.
Or rather, whether the outbreak of the Space Undead Crisis was entirely coincidental.
Zhuang Ying was personally in charge of this matter.
After the Yatai Civilization departed, the forr high-level officials of this civilization had been thoroughly purged. But even now, the whole society seed to have entirely forgotten that past disaster.
The lower-class people were still utterly worthless, subjected to even stricter control and utterly deprived of freedom.
To the extent that, among those people, the “Demon” who brought about the death of billions back then had beco a legend.
They even longed for the ergence of a new Demon.
Zhuang Ying effortlessly obtained all the intelligence about the “Demon.”
“Nad Mos, he was a poor kid living in the industrial district. Both his parents had died from diseases caused by industrial labor. Before he encountered the Cup of the Undead, he had also endured about seven years of hard labor. The Cup of the Undead was sothing he had picked up from the ruins…” The results of Zhuang Ying’s investigation were very detailed, “Initially, the Undead that were released were not so powerful and did not possess viral contagion capabilities. But Mos harbored enormous malice towards society, especially those in high positions, so after being brutally beaten by the managent, he finally erupted, granting the Undead the ability to infect others.”
As Shen Hao read the report, he felt like he was watching a movie.
Because everything involved too many coincidences.
The Cup of the Undead, originally hidden underground, was fortuitously dug up, then it was fortuitously thrown into a rubbish heap, and then by so fluke, it was discovered by such a person, and even initially controlled…
Any single link in the chain gone awry could have prevented the Undead Crisis from occurring at this node.
But all the steps preceding this event had occurred identically in another Universe.
The only difference was at a certain mont afterward.
“The Undead Disaster first erupted on this planet with extre severity, killing too many people. As the number of Undead grew, the Cup of the Undead’s power also beca stronger. Under normal circumstances, there would be no one on this planet capable of stopping it. The fateful node lay in the choice made by Mos’s sister,” Zhuang Ying noted an important figure in his report.
That would be Mos’s sister.
Indeed, Mos had a sister. Even in such an environnt, he still loved his sister dearly, trying his best to protect her. This, in turn, allowed the sister to feel so warmth and a bit more kindness.
Therefore, after seeing Mos kill so many people, who were also from the lower class, Mos’s sister killed her own brother who had beco a “Demon.”
Undoubtedly, even though it was not clear what transpired in the Space Undead Universe, such a scene did not happen.
It was this that led to such a drastic divergence in the fates of two Universes.
—The choice of an ordinary little girl.
“Fate is indeed full of irony,” Shen Hao frowned slightly after reading the entire report.
He didn’t find any trace of manipulation; it seed as though this was a critical node predetermined by fate, ant to create divergent branches in the tiline.
However, considering other coincidences, Shen Hao had a vague sense that he was seeing the traces of a “script.”
Not a script of natural drama, but one of artificial creation.
Suppose all initial destinies of the parallel universes were being continuously controlled by a single hand… that would truly be the real Controller of this multi-dinsional parallel universe.
“Continue exploring other critical nodes that lead to the birth of different tilines,” Shen Hao assigned a task to Zhuang Ying.
Although Human Civilization’s primary exploration was limited to three universes, it did not an the preliminary exploration of other universes would cease.
Scouts were still persistently dispersed into various parallel universes.
So of them were obviously similar to the Space Undead Universe.
Like the chanical Crisis Universe, which was the result of scientist Severus’s runaway blackening.
The node occurred when he first rged with the chanical Heart, a node that had also happened in this ordinary universe, and could be investigated for past events.
With comparisons to draw upon, similar nodes beca easier to locate.
Possessing this intelligence could help Human Civilization gain a deeper understanding of this multi-dinsional parallel universe’s “fate”!
Notably, to minimize disturbance to fate, Shen Hao requested Zhuang Ying’s operation be covert.
Thus, aside from intelligence, there wasn’t much else to gain from this ordinary universe.
Lastly, Shen Hao turned his attention to the third universe.
This was the most powerful universe discovered so far—the United Universe.
A United Conference also erged within the United Universe, but not as a result of a crisis.
It was born at the mont “Ying” first gained power.
In this universe, Ying, upon acquiring power, didn’t choose to beco a Cosmic Hero. Instead, he believed that only order could save the universe and took the path of constructing that order.
He established the United Conference early on, initially a solitary mber, then he enlisted the Witch, co-opted the Yatai Emperor, and eventually, even included the Ancient Gods.
Throughout the entire history, Ying seed almost divinely aided.
He not only demonstrated great power but also commanded persuasive and trustworthy justice, coupled with various coincidences, and eventually, he truly built an order that ruled the entire universe.
Under this order, the whole universe beca even more powerful.
Based on what was scouted so far, all of the “Classic Characters” in this universe were enhanced versions.
Scientist Severus even abandoned the “chanical Man” image often seen in other universes, instead, he transford into a massive chanical planet!
Countless new technologies were birthed on this planet every day, then rapidly disseminated to the entire United Conference.
The Witch also beca incredibly powerful, no longer the uncontrolled figure she once was, but now truly commanding her own power, revealing her true form.
She could even use magic to swiftly create flourishing, colossal Life Planets!
The Yatai could use their Spirit to accurately locate anyone across dozens of star systems.
The Emperor of the Giant Empire could smash a star with a single punch!
…
All other mbers among the Seven Giants received similar levels of enhancent!
