Space Odyssey from Abandoned Mining Space Station

Chapter 763: Chapter 228: Complete Domination

Cheng Xinghai looked at the Alpha-level core projected in 3D, quickly contemplating Chen Ming’s intention.

Before she could figure it out, Chen Ming spoke up: ”The simulated time is five years before the current real time, when I was still in cryogenic sleep at the Mining Space Station, and no one knew of my existence in the simulation.”

”Moreover, the effects of my Spiritual Energy haven’t been too exposed, at least not at your current level.”

Seeing that Chen Ming intended to explain himself, Cheng Xinghai stopped pondering over what he was trying to do and said instead, ”It feels like you’re discriminating against me.”

”Not at all, I’m just telling the truth.”

”That means you’re discriminating against all of us.”

”Don’t talk nonsense.”

Chen Ming’s spiritual energy has a great effect on Dusk, able to control it. Its significance for the war between humans and Dusk is well known by many people.

However, specifics about its meaningfulness, particularly how to control Dusk and the indirect diffusion effect of Dusk on Chen Ming’s Spiritual Energy, are not known by everyone.

The information protection from the boss’s side is quite thorough.

It’s normal for the military to know, since Bai Quan has almost fully analyzed his Spiritual Energy.

It’s also normal for the government to be aware, since although the military and government aren’t exactly united, they both exist under the same Empire.

Others who might know the specific effects of his Spiritual Energy would be Zuo Jing.

Zuo Jing can emerge from nowhere, and it’s uncertain if someone within the government or military with access to this intelligence believes in Zuo Jing and leaks out the information.

Still, Zuo Jing is a major cult that can’t be eradicated from within the Empire.

And right now, the people around Chen Ming are just a few military academy students, who certainly do not have the ability to access this information.

So Chen Ming simply explained, ”My spiritual energy can perform a secondary diffusion through Dusk when targeting it.”

”Just over twenty days ago, an Alpha Core infiltrated the Dusk Star Realm while it was unguarded.”

”Although we can’t actually cross over, just like the Mechanical Race, they can.”

Chen Ming’s words allowed Cheng Xinghai to imagine what was about to happen next.

And when Chen Ming brought her aboard a Shuttle Boat heading into space, departing the atmosphere.

A scene appeared before her eyes that was both breathtaking despite her mental preparation.

Countless Dusk Battleships were continually making jumps to arrive in this star system, arriving at the planet where Chen Ming now stood.

The transitions, seemingly arriving from thousands of light years away, almost created a unique ring around the planet—a beauty peculiar to the technological age.

These ships docked in the planet’s orbit, conducting self-checks.

Presumably, they would soon serve as sharp blades in Chen Ming’s hands against the New Rebellion.

Looking at the Radiation Level battleship among the Dusk Fleet in the planet’s orbit, Cheng Xinghai pursed her lips, suddenly feeling like everything she and her teammates did over the past weeks seemed meaningless.

Though she did slack off, her teammates fought desperately to seize a comeback opportunity, an opportunity they almost grasped.

Ultimately, it was effortlessly resolved, leaving only a sense of hopeless resistance.

Such a scene is somewhat suffocating.

”I know your spiritual energy can control Dusk, but so many...”

”You’ve hardly left my sight since day one, no time to control them, which means... all of these are...”

Chen Ming affirmed, ”That’s right, all orchestrated by the Alpha-level Dusk core I control.”

”In fact, I didn’t want to use it initially; as you can see, deploying this really makes it all pointless and dull.”

”But since you guys attracted the attention of the Mechanical Race from the sidelines, I don’t mind using this approach.”

Cheng Xinghai said nothing and watched the ever-growing Dusk Fleet outside for a long time before turning to Chen Ming and saying, ”To defeat you in the simulation, either possess the power to overcome Dusk, completely avoid Dusk, or eliminate you before the Dusk under your control develop.”

”Unfortunately, in this simulation, you couldn’t achieve any of those.”

Cheng Xinghai nodded slightly. Although she did feel a bit regretful, it was still alright since this was just a simulation.

Moreover, she suddenly connected this to the real-world situation, which mattered even more.

But as she was about to ask Chen Ming, he already anticipated her question and said in advance, ”No need to think about it in reality.”

”Before I had the capability to do this, I had already been forced to reveal my spiritual energy to Dusk because of the Galor-2 Star Zone’s military pursuit.”

”So Dusk is already aware of my existence and won’t give me the opportunity like the Dusk five years ago in the simulation did.”

Cheng Xinghai’s expression turned cold as she heard this, and it was unclear if it was targeted at Dusk or the original Galor-2 Star Zone military, but she said, ”Damn it.”
