Dimensional Codex System: I'm really not a cultist!

In fact, just as Fang Zheng expected, Luke returned with an indignant expression a few days later. Fang Zheng also knew where he went; he headed to the previous planet to confront the little green man, Yoda, there. Luke originally just wanted to ask Yoda why his father suffered such a fate.

But how to say... Yoda is indeed Yoda, and he poured a dose of bitter motivational talk onto Luke once again.

As a result, Luke wasn’t having it anymore.

After all, after seeing those things in the past, if you still want to fool people, you’d better show some sincerity.

Our entire Skywalker family owes you nothing, yet you all want to trick me onto the ship?

So, Yoda started again with his lecture, criticizing Luke for lacking patience, being reckless like his father, saying he was too dangerous, and he was not planning to continue teaching Luke the Jedi way of training.

However, Luke also has a temper, right? It was understandable when he didn’t see Anakin’s memories, but after seeing them and hearing these words, it was exactly like how it was with his father back then!

Hey, if you don’t teach me, I don’t want to learn anyway!

I’ll find my father!

With both sides disagreeing, they parted ways sharply, and Luke flew back in his fighter.

And after coming back, Luke felt a bit regretful. Although he was indeed displeased with Yoda, the Dark Force seemed very evil in Luke’s view. Although his father had his reasons, it also showed the power and influence of the Dark Force. To this, Fang Zheng remarked... these are all outdated; would you like to learn about the new technology?

So Fang Zheng, just like he did with Palpatine, showed Vader and Luke the transformation history of the Tangram. This immediately intrigued Vader, a master of the Force, who gladly pulled Luke to retreat and study this new feature of the Force together.

Fang Zheng became idle and took the chance to check on Lia’s situation. Compared to Luke, Lia was having a tough time. Ever since Vader released the news, Lia’s situation within the Rebel Army became harsh. As Fang Zheng had expected, internal power struggles within the Rebel Army were not absent. Lia was previously the spiritual leader of the Rebel Army, so no one dared to bother her. But now, with such news, those trying to gain more influence within the Rebel Army immediately took the opportunity to suppress her.

There were even suspicions that the Empire’s military sieges were due to Lia leaking information. Otherwise, why did the Empire’s army manage to ambush the Rebel Army so many times with such heavy losses specifically in these events?

Isn’t there an insider here?

There was already suspicion about the matter, and now when they hear that Princess Lia is Vader’s daughter—well, there’s no need for a second suspect.

So now, Lia’s position within the Rebel Army was shaky, and Fang Zheng estimated that if he played Zhuge Liang and captured and released her again, she might not even leave...

However, just as Fang Zheng was flipping through the records, a sudden feeling of unease surged in his heart. Before he could figure out where this feeling came from, suddenly, a rapid alarm sounded.

”Beep-beep———Beep-beep———!”

Oh no, it’s a probe!

Fang Zheng hurriedly opened his personal terminal, and immediately saw the probe data he had released on the edge of this galaxy starting to become chaotic, then completely explode and disappear. At the same time, he could feel a familiar, incredibly terrifying aura rushing towards the Milky Way in front of him!

The Chaos Tide has arrived!

”Iona, immediately gather all warships, activate the shield, initiate the Order Node guard, and stay hidden within this star system without coming out!”

At this moment, Fang Zheng immediately issued the order. Luckily, to be cautious, the fleet had kept near the side closer to Alfalfa in the star system when he came, so even if the Chaos Tide erupted, Fang Zheng could at least rely on the star system in front of him to block it. Fang Zheng had thought before that this star system would have the benefit of a breakwater, and now it turned out he was right!

Fang Zheng closed his eyes, and soon, his vision expanded from below to above, overlooking the entire Milky Way. Then, Fang Zheng could clearly feel a violent surge of chaotic power rushing in from afar, crashing directly upon this star system, just like waves crashing against stones on the shore.

The next moment, the power of the chaos penetrated.

In Fang Zheng’s vision, he could clearly see several originally bright and shining planets on the edge of the Milky Way disappearing instantly, as if an invisible mouth had taken a big bite out of the Milky Way pie. Then the angry chaotic power began to penetrate inward, as if river water surging along the ground.

However...

Huh?

Soon, Fang Zheng discovered something unusual.

He could sense that this violent force, upon entering this galaxy, started to decrease as if being absorbed. It was as if this galaxy was a giant sponge rapidly soaking up the chaotic power, yet as more and more was absorbed, the momentum of the chaos became even more forceful.

”Not good!”

Sensing the tremors of the Primordial Force in the air, Fang Zheng was startled and sprinted forward. The next moment, Fang Zheng appeared directly in the training room of Vader and Luke. Seeing Fang Zheng appear, both of them were taken aback. However, Fang Zheng had no time for nonsense with them and directly grabbed the two by the hands.

”Come with me!”

Before the words were finished, Fang Zheng took Vader and Luke with him and disappeared again. With a change of scenery, they found themselves in a vast observatory hall. Here, they saw Palpatine sitting cross-legged on a chair with closed eyes. Hearing the sound, he opened his eyes and saw Fang Zheng bringing Vader and Luke over, a look of surprise in his eyes.

”What is this...?”

”Focus, protect yourself, concentrate the Primordial Force!”

Without waiting for Palpatine to finish speaking, Fang Zheng directly tossed Vader and Luke to the ground.

”Quick, if you don’t want to die, just do it!”

”What on earth is happening...?”

Luke was still dazed from being thrown, not knowing what was happening. However, at this moment, Palpatine and Vader both changed their expressions dramatically. As masters of the Force, they immediately felt the terrifying tremors of the Force from the depths of the universe, akin to a volcanic eruption, which, as Jedi Knights, was life-threatening!

”Sit behind me! Focus!”

Fang Zheng strode forward to stand before the three, ”swish,” summoning the Pitch Black Greatsword and thrusting it forcefully into the ground.

At the same time, the Primordial Force vibration erupted.

An invisible power instantly swept across the entire Milky Way Galaxy. This wave was unseen and intangible, yet it could induce a sense of dread. Those innately insensitive to the Primordial Force might at most feel a chest tightness, but for someone sensitive to the Force, such as Darth Vader and Palpatine, it was as if they watched a mountain crashing down on them, potentially crushing them to death!

The mountain collapsed.

Just as Fang Zheng completed his defenses, the three instantly felt as if they’d been buried by an avalanche rushing upon them—all unable to move under the onslaught of the Primordial Force. If not for Fang Zheng blocking ahead, they might have ended up like half-dead corpses!

”Focus your spirits, think carefully about what I told you before! This is also an opportunity for you; your gains depend on your effort!”

Biting his teeth, Fang Zheng pressed one hand on the greatsword while secretly marveling. He could sense the Primordial Force’s strength; however, the Chaos Aura he feared wasn’t there—the impurities of chaos weren’t filtered but dispersed!

It’s like dispersing 1 into 0.0000001; naturally, the power is incomparable.

Not only this... Fang Zheng also detected...

Yes, the power of life!

Feeling the surging Primordial Force, Fang Zheng was excited inside. He had always wondered what the Goddess of Order was intending with this star system, and now he had some direction.

Indeed, life.

If speaking of the most complex, chaotic, and unordered existence in the world, it would be life. Life is ubiquitous; it can find a way in any place, space, or time. Yet, the moment life takes form, it becomes the most orderly existence; with life comes the division between life and death, automatically categorizing itself within order’s scope.

The Goddess of Order can do this, but how?

Fang Zheng was increasingly amazed, sensing that although the Chaos Tide initially caused a significant impact on the star system’s edge, it was quickly mitigated, then converted into the Primordial Force. The Primordial Force, though still sweeping across the star system, had far fewer detrimental effects compared to the Chaos Tide and brought many benefits. Fang Zheng imagined that after this wave of Primordial Force passed, the number of newborns in the Milky Way possessing the Force might be beyond count—maybe like a High Magic world with a Force explosion. Previously, Jedi Knights weren’t enough for a division; perhaps in twenty years, they could casually form group armies.

It’s wonderful... If I could figure out how the Goddess of Order does this, I could at least make something similar in the Alfalfa Galaxy—at least a double insurance...

Who knows how long it took, but the Primordial Storm gradually subsided. Fang Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the increase of Force within the galaxy by several-fold. At this rate, it’s only a matter of time before it becomes a High Magic world.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng turned to look behind him. He saw Palpatine, Darth Vader, and Luke sitting on the ground, eyes closed. Their current situation was akin to martial arts novels where someone suddenly ingested a Genius Treasure, their power soaring—it now depended on how much they could absorb.

Fang Zheng glanced swiftly, then quickly opened his personal terminal to contact others, starting with Illya and Little Hei. Both stated they felt no discomfort and instead comfortably as if soaking in a hot spring. As for Eiriri, she had no reaction—since she had no Force to begin with.

Shihou Souki was slightly worse off; having higher spiritual power isn’t always a good thing. Luckily, Little Hei quickly protected her, leaving her merely whimpering in bed, yet her spirit remained clear. According to Shihou Souki, it felt like someone ”hit her head with a brick.”

At least she wasn’t crushed to death.

The expedition fleet behind was fine as well. The Galaxy diverted a large amount of Chaotic Power, and the fleet’s shields could handle the remaining amount.

But the Alfalfa Galaxy wasn’t so fortunate.

Although the Milky Star System blocked almost half of the Chaos Tide, the remaining portion struck the Alfalfa Galaxy, causing considerable chaos. According to reports Fang Zheng received, beastly Demon Beasts at the first coordinate point had grown berserk, while the second coordinate point faced continuous scourges—earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, with tsunami disasters in full force, causing quite a headache. The third coordinate point wasn’t much better off; Elisa also reported the sudden reappearance of numerous Contaminated Beasts on the Wasteland World attacking cities—fortunately, with many players, they managed to fend off the beasts’ frenzy.

Emilia also published news saying that recently across various regions, Goblins seemed to have become more active, and the trend continued upwards—they had no idea where so many Goblins emerged from; surely not from rocks!

Luckily, thanks to the protection of the three coordinate points, neither the Main World nor Heavenly Dao Palace was affected by this Chaos Tide, providing Fang Zheng with some relief.

However... he received a report from Nanoha—that the Magical Girl World had encountered trouble.

”Missing?”

Manipulating Red Ponytail, Fang Zheng questioned Nanoha with a puzzled expression; Nanoha nodded nervously.

”Yes, recently, in Sister Kyoko’s world, many magical girls have disappeared. Sister and her friends have gone to investigate, but there’s been no response—we’re worried...”

”What does ’no response’ mean?”

”It means we can’t contact them, can’t find them; telepathic communication doesn’t connect, phone calls don’t go through either.”

”What about going directly to find them?”

”We’ve tried, but couldn’t find the rumored place at all!”

”What place?”

”A place called Kamihama City. Rumors say the magical girls have vanished there, but after looking at the map for a long time, we couldn’t find such a city; Shisei also tried, but there seems to be interference...”

”I understand.”

Listening to Nanoha’s account, Fang Zheng nodded.

”I will send someone to investigate.”

The Magical Girl World is indeed his Divine Domain and the foundation of his divinity—no issues may arise there! Thus, upon receiving Nanoha’s report, Fang Zheng promptly steadied his mind and made a decision.

Let’s have Red Ponytail take a look.
