Super God: Kissing an Angel at the Beginning, Building an Empire

"I'm OK!"

Liang Bing was the first to speak up. She licked her lips, her eyes sparkling with eager anticipation.

"This is much more interesting than overturning that bitch Keisha's birdcage!"

“Angel, no problem.”

He Xi nodded slowly, her eyes also revealing a longing for the unknown truth.

"very good."

A satisfied smile appeared on Ye Chen's face.

Once the barriers of thought are broken down, everything that follows will proceed with unstoppable momentum.

"Therefore, Project Candle Dragon's Eye is officially launched."

"I don't have much time for you."

Ye Chen's gaze swept over everyone present, and his voice became extremely serious.

"Sixty years."

"Within sixty years, I must see the first experimental prototype of the 'Eye of the Candle Dragon' successfully lit up!"

The official launch of the "Eye of the Candle Dragon" project.

Like a super engine whose start button has been pressed, the entire Yanhuang Empire, this massive war machine that has just completed its initial integration, roared into operation with unprecedented terrifying efficiency.

The Yilan Galaxy, the superdimensional core device that once witnessed the virtual war, was rapidly transformed.

It is no longer just a virtual battlefield.

Instead, it has become an unprecedented super joint laboratory that integrates the top wisdom of three major civilizations.

Countless top scientists from the Yellow Emperor, angels, and demons put aside their prejudices and conflicts of tens of thousands of years and sat down together for the first time in a truly meaningful way.

In virtual meetings, the sounds of arguing, debating, and excited shouts of inspiration ring out almost 24 hours a day.

The angel scientists are rigorous and meticulous; the "divine" system they brought provided incredibly accurate theoretical model support for the entire project.

The demon scientists, on the other hand, are full of wildly imaginative ideas.

Their intuitive understanding of "chaos" and "entropy" has repeatedly provided unexpected solutions when projects hit bottlenecks.

Scientists from other previous god-creating civilizations and top-tier civilizations, such as the advanced civilization of Lieyang.

They all contributed their own efforts.

And the scientists of Yanhuang acted as the strongest adhesive.

They are characterized by absolute pragmatism and strong engineering capabilities.

Theories and inspirations from countless civilizations are rapidly transformed into verifiable and executable engineering solutions.

Liang Bing practically moved all her bedding into the lab.

She was like an inexhaustible tech fanatic, immersing herself day and night in the theoretical model of the "chaotic core".

The other research officers were also working tirelessly day and night in other modules to improve their work.

The Emperor only gave them sixty years, and this is such a huge project.

Sixty years is far too short.

It was so short it passed in the blink of an eye.

Amidst this hectic project, Ye Qingxian, the chief consultant "handpicked" by Ye Chen, was in charge.

It became the most unique and most "headache-inducing" presence in the laboratory.

She couldn't understand any of those extremely complex dimensional mathematics and energy formulas.

Every time there's a meeting, she sits in a corner with a cup of "happy water," a specialty of Yanhuang, swinging her legs listlessly.

However, whenever the project encountered critical technical difficulties, all the scientists were at a loss.

Ye Chen would then carry her to the huge 3D model.

"Qingxian, feel around, where does it feel uncomfortable?"

Then, a magical scene will happen.

Ye Qingxian would wrinkle her cute little nose and sniff around inside the complex energy model.

Finally, she extended her fair, delicate finger and touched a tiny, almost imperceptible point.

"Father, this is it!"

"It feels like... the energy is constipated here, it's so blocked! It's incredibly difficult to flow smoothly!"

"constipate?"

A group of top scientists looked at each other, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

But when they concentrated all their computing power to conduct an in-depth analysis of the identified node.

Without exception, they all discovered that there was indeed an extremely hidden structural defect that could lead to energy resonance conflicts.

again and again.

Ye Qingxian used her childlike intuition.

It accurately pointed out fatal bugs that even supercomputers would need to expend massive amounts of computing power to discover.

Gradually, the way all the scientists in the laboratory looked at this princess changed.

What started as helplessness and confusion has evolved into...

A deep sense of awe.

They finally understood that this princess possessed the "Phoenix Star Body" and a naturally dimensional body.

Its value cannot be measured by conventional combat power.

She was born to "master" dimensions and spacetime.

In such a frenzied scientific research atmosphere, the progress of the "Eye of the Candle Dragon" project is advancing by leaps and bounds.

After personally setting the macro-level theoretical framework and technical roadmap for the entire project, Ye Chen handed over the specific execution work to Yuan Lan and the Academy of Sciences.

He, on the other hand, devoted more of his energy to another equally important matter.

The Purple Palace, deep within the database with the highest privileges.

Inside a secret room constructed entirely of special dimensional materials.

Ye Chen hovered quietly in mid-air.

Before him floated a cluster of extremely complex information data that was constantly flashing with a faint light.

This is precisely the coordinate information about the "zero-dimensional mezzanine" and the suspected "three-body universe" that he obtained from his "past" self.

"System, given the Empire's current technological level, how long will it take to analyze these coordinates?"

Ye Chen asked in his mind.

[Reporting to the host, this coordinate data contains dimensional information far exceeding that of the current universe.]

[Using the combined computing power of Nuwa and Keisha's knowledge repositories for a brute-force attack, it is estimated to take 137.4 standard years.]

"too long."

Ye Chen frowned slightly.

He couldn't wait that long.

[If the system's auxiliary analysis is used and 1000 million civilization points are consumed, the time can be shortened to 72 hours.]

"Trickster."

Ye Chen silently complained in his heart, but still chose to confirm without hesitation.

"deduct."

[Command confirmed, consuming Civilization Points...]

[System auxiliary parsing module started...]

Om-!
An invisible force, originating from a higher dimension, instantly enveloped the complex data.

The information chain was originally tangled up like a mess.

It was as if an invisible hand was rapidly sorting, deconstructing, and recombining things in an extremely ingenious way.

Countless dimensional symbols and spacetime parameters that Ye Chen had never seen before flowed past him like a waterfall.

Even with his current computing power, comparable to that of a celestial computer, he felt waves of dizziness.

The knowledge contained within is too vast and too profound.

72 hours pass in the blink of an eye while you are completely focused.

[Analysis complete.]

The system notification sound snapped Ye Chen out of his immersive analysis.

Before him, an incredibly clear three-dimensional, even four-dimensional, star map slowly unfolded.

It was a completely unfamiliar universe. At the center of the star map, a galaxy was marked with a special symbol.

According to the information analyzed by the system, that place is the "past" self, and the predicted cosmic coordinates of that dimension with extremely advanced technology.

What Ye Chen cared about even more was the edge of the star map.

There, a faint, almost negligible, flickering red dot of light was visible.

"what is this?"

Ye Chen's mind instantly locked onto that point of light.

[Reporting to the host: This light spot is not part of the coordinate information, but rather an anomalous piece of information extracted from the background radiation of the zero-dimensional interlayer during the analysis process.]

Based on preliminary system analysis, this appears to be a lost beacon.

"Beacon?"

Ye Chen's heart moved.

"Can its contents be deciphered?"

[The beacon's encryption method surpasses the technological level of this universe, but its core logic and coordinate data are of the same origin, making it possible to decrypt by linking them. It is estimated that it will require 500 million civilization points.]

Ye Chen: “…”

"Analysis."

[Command confirmed...]

Another massive influx of information flooded my mind.

This time, the information is no longer just cold coordinates and parameters.

Instead, it was a fragmented last message filled with despair, resentment, and endless sorrow.

It was a woman's voice.

Her voice was very faint, as if it might dissipate into the background radiation of the universe at any moment.

But the will it contains is as tenacious as the core of a star.

[...This is...the last ark of the Pangu civilization...]

We lost...

The ultimate fear... the void... it devoured everything...

We were all wrong... The void is not the end of the universe... It is merely a... tool...

The real enemy... is... the "Reaper"...

They sow seeds... they observe... they leave "eyes" in every corner of the universe...

When the fruits of civilization ripen... they will descend... bringing with them a scythe called 'Void'...

We tried to rebel... We created the Dark Dimension... in an attempt to 'shield' the Reaper's gaze...

But we failed...

The "Dark Dimension" has been corrupted by them... turning into a cage that locks away our potential...

[Warning... to all survivors who receive this message...]

Do not...believe in...the dark dimension...

Do not...try...to...understand...the void...

[Quickly...run away...]

Before...the "harvest"...returns...again...

The sound stopped abruptly there.

Dissipate completely.

All that remains is an endless, cold silence, a silence that signifies the end of information.

Ye Chen floated silently in the secret room.

There was no expression on his face.

But his heart was in turmoil like never before!
Pangu Civilization!

Dark Dimension!
The Reaper!
One unfamiliar word after another, like flashes of lightning, instantly connected all the fragmented clues about the universe in his mind!

It turned out to be the case.

So-called ultimate fear, so-called emptiness.

It was nothing short of a premeditated, interstellar farm that spanned countless eras... a "harvest"!
And these civilizations of the known universe range from angels to demons, from the blazing sun to the River Styx, and even include the Yanhuang Empire he himself founded.

They are all just fruits on a farm, waiting to be harvested!

And that so-called "dark plane" is the core device that has supported the mainstream technological system of the known universe for tens of thousands of years.

It was a scam from the very beginning!

A being created by the Pangu civilization, attempting to rebel against the "Reapers".

But it was ultimately corrupted and altered by the enemy, turning into a huge prison that locked away the evolutionary potential of all those who came after it!

An extremely cold chill instantly shot from the soles of Ye Chen's feet to the top of his head.

He always believed that his greatest enemy was the void.

But now he understands.

The void, perhaps...

It's just a scythe wielded by those "harves" hidden behind a higher-dimensional curtain!

Inside the secret chamber of the Ziwei Palace.

That final lament from the Pangu civilization was like an indelible mark, deeply etched into the core of his consciousness.

"The Reaper..."

He chewed on the cold word in a low voice.

The word itself gave him a chill that ran deep in his soul.

The Void is a known threat.

It is chaotic, disordered, and represents pure destruction.

But at least its characteristics can be observed, studied, and even countered to a limited extent.

Just like what he encountered on that Dou Qi Continent, he can use a more "orderly" void power to seal it.

But the "harvesters" are different.

They are the chess players hidden behind the scenes.

They viewed the entire universe as a farm, and countless brilliant civilizations as fruits waiting to ripen.

They can even corrupt and alter the "dark plane" created by the Pangu civilization, which was originally intended for resistance, turning it into a cage that locks in the potential of those who come after.

This method, this strategy, this patience and ruthlessness that transcends countless eras...

It has gone beyond the scope of simply being "powerful".

This is a higher-dimensional, irrational domination of lower-dimensional civilizations!

"Indeed, my decision to abandon the Dark Dimension and focus on dimensional technology and physical evolution was the right one from the very beginning."

A hint of relief flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, but more so was his solemnity.

He initially relied solely on the prophecy of a time traveler.

With the help of the system, I instinctively felt that the "dark dimension" was too convenient, so convenient that it was like a trap.

That's why he forcibly blocked the dark dimension within the Yanhuang Empire, embarking on a difficult path that ran counter to the mainstream technology of the known universe.

In retrospect, this decision, which seemed like a stubborn one at the time, now seems much more appropriate.

By sheer luck, he and his Yanhuang Empire became the only civilization in the entire known universe that was not completely locked up by a "cage".

They are the only fruit in this huge farm that has undergone a "genetic mutation".

But this also means...

They are also the most likely to become the first targets that the "harves" will eliminate!
What is the relationship between the Observer Civilization and the Reaper Civilization?

Ye Chen's thoughts were like the most sophisticated astronomical computer, running at breakneck speed.

On the Dou Qi Continent, there was an ancient starship called "Sower-7".

Its core is bound by the mark left by the "Observer" and has been transformed into an altar that summons the void.

The last words of the Shenhe civilization clearly pointed out that the "Reapers" were the real masterminds.

Is there a cooperative relationship between these two? A superior-subordinate relationship? Or...?

Are they simply different names for the same civilization?

Countless mysteries, like deep nebulae, shrouded his mind. (End of Chapter)
