Wasteland Development Diary.

Chapter 709: Numerical Strangeness

Zhou Yi couldn't understand it at all.

Why did Jupiter's activation attract a collective attack from the celestial beings?

Aren't the Celestials afraid of Jupiter?
He doesn't understand.

However, in the real-time footage from Jupiter, several glittering points of light had already appeared near the planet. These were all gem-like objects, arranged in a V-shape and rushing towards it.

"Chairman, a total of 12 Celestials have attacked."

Xiao Chongqing appeared next to Zhou Yi.

Now she no longer wears mahjong earrings, her hair is styled in two buns, and she wears a black cheongsam underneath, with white socks and black leather shoes, looking very fresh and elegant. Over this, she wears a light green Qing-style women's top with yellow, red, and white patterns, like the rings on the surface of Jupiter.

Her mental state has also been fully restored from the previous depressing Sadako.

She resembles a teenage version of Yagami.

energetic.

She said, "According to the Star Anchor Observation, the strongest among the incoming Celestials is a Transformer named All Things Created, with a strength of 4000 strings. The remaining 11 are all polymorphic, with strengths ranging from 12 to 206 strings. The total strength of the entire formation is 5006 strings."

Zhou Yi asked her, "Is the string the standard of measurement for string civilization?"

"Yes."

Xiao Chongqing nodded: "In the string civilization system, a complete set of closed strings is used as the unit of measurement. The number of strings that can be mobilized and used is the most intuitive standard for class level. Transformers usually have between 5 and 1800 strings available to them."

"The combined forces are enough to destroy a small planet."

Zhou Yi knew in his heart that the Celestial Army had truly mobilized its elite forces this time.

Led by the most top-level creator of all things.

Unfortunately, the virus has not yet been widely deployed and will require time to spread to the wounded one by one.

Proxima Centauri is too far away to help a fire burning nearby, and cutting off its energy supply cannot stop this attack.

The giant bone fish couldn't arrive in time, and besides, it wasn't good at direct confrontation but rather at assassination.

The reinforcements are too far away, while the Celestial Army is too close.

You have to rely on yourself.

Zhou Yi made a decisive decision: "Have all the Jupiter Cave people go deep into the ocean to preserve their strength and avoid being attacked by the Celestials! Those who are nearby should immediately transfer to Earth or the Moon."

"Chairman, there's no need for that."

Xiao Chongqing waved his hand: "The cave people will not be in danger. Although the strength of this scale of celestial gathering is very high, it is still insignificant in front of Jupiter."

"Although this planet has not reached the level of breaking through dimensions, in terms of strength, even in the current normal mode, it is at the level of 53 strings."

“They are easy to deal with.”

"Do you need me to deal with those celestial beings?"

Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment.

Is the difference in strength really that big?
Without hesitation, he said, "Take them out, leave no survivors!"

On the battlefield, we must kill as many enemy personnel as possible.

"Yes."

Little Chongqing raised his hand in a salute: "Jupiter's Giant Structure, commence operations!"

In the space images she projected.

The Celestial Army has already circled Jupiter, and from their bodies flew out nearly a hundred Level 2 gem bodies, all of them Transformers.

They released streaks of light that spread across Jupiter's ring system.

At the same time, these gemstones began to connect and extend to each other, and a large number of gemstones spread out and expanded like grains of sand, forming a conical structure.

The tip of the cone is facing Jupiter.

Behind the giant cone, countless spatial holes were lit up, like millions of light sources, with energy continuously flowing in to supply the planetary offensive.

After a large amount of string light was gathered and compressed to its limit, it transformed into thousands of ribbons at the cone tip and began to wrap around and envelop the gas giant.

For a moment, Jupiter looked like a sphere caught in a net, or a giant meteor trailing countless fire lines.

Little Chongqing raised his hand.

Snapped his fingers.

In that instant, the Eye of Jupiter suddenly unleashed an astonishing gravitational force, swallowing up and sucking in a massive amount of string light. For a moment, even light could not escape from the vicinity, and the entire Jupiter region transformed into a giant black hole.

Seeing that something was wrong, the Celestials quickly split up and fled in different directions, trying to escape into the spatial rift.

But it was too late.

Red vortexes appeared above those spatial holes, and they were all locked, making it impossible to enter.

The string light on the gem bodies then transformed from a hunting rope into a fishing line, locking them firmly in place and gently pulling them one by one into Jupiter.

Jupiter's exposed 12-dimensional void is like a dark mouth, with tongues of light extending out to swallow the flying celestial beings and gem-like bodies.

Just for a moment.

The region around Jupiter is completely silent.

The once vibrant and dazzling light has returned to darkness.

Xiao Chongqing saluted again: "Chairman, the enemy's 12 Celestials and 166 Gem Bodies have been cleared."

"..."

Zhou Yi was dumbfounded.

No.

My buddy was just about to watch Star Wars.

So you're telling me it's already over?
The entire process, from Jupiter retaliating to the complete annihilation of the Celestials, took only 7 seconds.

It took me 15 seconds to kill the dragon myself.

Zhou Yi was somewhat bewildered.

Whether it's Xiaofu, Golden Tree, or Giant Bone Fish, they all say that high-level battlefields are mostly one-sided affairs.

With the two sides being roughly equal in strength and neither side having the confidence to completely destroy or severely damage the other, they can maintain restraint and peace.

This is because on a cosmic scale, there are always emerging, highly advanced life forms and civilizations, lurking in various spaces and dimensions.

No one wants to become prey due to battlefield losses and setbacks.

It's similar to how wild animals hunt in nature.

One could only say that life, after evolving to a certain point, does seem to return to its original, more primitive state.

This game was just too overwhelming.

It's like both sides spent tens of minutes farming and preparing for the final battle. But before the team fight even started, your team directly stole a tower and destroyed the enemy base... all those years of farming and developing were for those 7 seconds.

Jupiter is known as the hunting planet, and there's a reason for that.

Zhou Yigan felt a little bored for a moment, as if he had entered a state of sagehood.

Yagami appeared out of nowhere, covering her mouth with her fan and saying, "You're really hard to please. When the enemy is too strong, you find it troublesome, but when you're too strong, you find fighting pointless."

Zhou Yi: "..."

Although I was very unhappy, I couldn't find any reason to refute it.

Humans are probably such contradictory creatures.

The desire for challenge, coupled with the fear that the challenge might be too great, turned into despair.

They want to engage in fierce hand-to-hand combat with their opponent, ensuring that both sides deliver impactful blows and are evenly matched.

The desire to have both is indeed a deep-seated human longing.

Put aside your slightly disappointed feelings.

Zhou Yi immediately adjusted his mindset; no matter what, a win is a win.

This is enough to prove that their previous strategy was correct and successful.

The revival of the Cave People and the capture of Jupiter, this giant structure, did indeed turn the tide of the battle and directly reversed the power dynamics between the two sides.

However, the easier and more decisive the victory, the better.

He became increasingly puzzled.

"Since the gap is more than a hundred times, why would the Celestials dare to organize an army to attack Jupiter immediately? Aren't they afraid of dying?" "Chairman, the gap is more than a hundred times."

Xiao Chongqing corrected him earnestly, saying, "53 strings is the intensity in rotation mode. Just now I switched to combat mode, and all 4080 star anchors on Jupiter have been activated, the 12-dimensional space hole has been fully opened, and Jupiter is now stable at 1.5 million strings. In terms of energy intensity alone, it has already reached the level of breaking dimensions."

Zhou Yi was already somewhat numb at this moment.

When Jupiter rotates, it is already a peak that no celestial being can surpass.

Activating battle mode takes it to another level.

A truly bizarre numerical value.

No wonder the Celestials were always extremely wary of Jupiter yet unable to conquer it.

However, given the vast difference in strength, and the fact that Jupiter had already begun its ascent, why did the Celestials still attempt to attack Jupiter, which they had no chance of winning?

"They are buying time for their evacuation."

Xiao Chongqing blinked: "Star Anchor has observed that a portion of the celestial beings around the sun are migrating and escaping this galaxy."

"It must be Jupiter's activation that made them feel immense pressure and fear."

"These celestial beings who came were merely delaying Jupiter, buying other individuals a chance to escape."

She waved her hand, displaying a view of the universe in the air.

Around the fireball-like sun, streaks of light can be seen streaking across the outer corona.

Zhou Yi discovered that the Celestials' evacuation was also very orderly, with clear distinctions between the front and back rows. The gemstones that were the first to leave were all dim points of light, and they were all old, weak, sick, or disabled.

But the powerful, brightly shining celestial beings behind them did not leave immediately.

They circled around the jeweled wall surrounding the sun, seemingly trying to embed their bodies into this magnificent jeweled project, or perhaps trying to activate or dismantle the sun wall.

Zhou Yi frowned: "What are they doing?"

Xiao Chongqing said, "They're moving the sun; they want to take the sun away."

Depend on!
There is a thief!
Zhou Yi was furious: "Stop them!"

"As ordered."

Xiao Chongqing raised his hand, and the Eye of Jupiter emitted countless beams of light, which passed through numerous spatial holes and landed around the sun.

In an instant, beams of light appeared on the gem bodies of numerous celestial beings. They were like fireflies bound by red threads, unable to move, as if they were under a spell.

Zhou Yi touched his chin.

well.

Jupiter is very powerful, and Jay Chou likes it very much.

All my years of continuous investment and development have paid off, and all the prerequisites for opening up Jupiter have been met.

"Chairman, out of a total of 3402 Celestials, 3327 have been captured on site. The remaining 75 Celestials who escaped through the spatial rift have also been located by the String Light, and it's only a matter of time before they are captured. No matter how far they escape to, or which dimension or space they enter, the String Light is connected to them, and it won't be long before they are all brought back."

Xiao Chongqing said it in a relaxed tone.

Zhou Yi couldn't help but wonder: "Can the string light used by Jupiter directly locate every celestial being?"

Xiao Chongqing nodded and hummed in agreement: "Because the Celestial Beings, these terraforms, were originally created by Jupiter. The terraforms' intelligence cores contain special closed strings that can be located in real time, so they can be locked onto based on specific string light parameters."

Zhou Yi thought to himself, "No wonder."

The Celestials have been given a backdoor by the String Civilization, allowing them to be captured using Jupiter.

Think differently.

If one were a celestial being, and there were an insurmountable behemoth like Jupiter constantly watching and locking onto them, leaving them nowhere to escape, unable to struggle or break free, they would probably feel the same pain and despair.

Zhou Yi looked at the celestial beings who were frozen in space like insect specimens, and his feelings were somewhat complicated.

The war ended abruptly, catching everyone completely off guard.

I felt like I hadn't even used any force before the other person collapsed.

Xiao Fu was extremely excited at this moment: "We've got them! We've got them! Da Zhou, your judgment was indeed correct! Although the Celestials seem invincible, their fatal flaws are obvious. Their information gathering and life domains are very weak, and they also have Jupiter as a special weapon against the Celestials!"

"We took care of them without even asking for outside help!"

"Let's start modifying them!"

"These guys would be troublesome as enemies, but if they can be turned into productivity or integrated into the company system, they would be very powerful allies!"

Zhou Yi suddenly realized.

Correct.

Transforming humanity is the ultimate goal.

At present, Jupiter's absolute strength is enough to suppress all the celestial beings in the solar system.

After finishing.

The time for negotiations has come.

Zhou Yi asked Xiao Chongqing, "Use the string light to contact the celestial beings for me."

"Yes."

Little Chongqing closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them again: "Alright. What you say now will be transmitted into the gems of every Celestial Being, and they will all hear it."

Zhou Yi paused for a moment, then said, "All terraformers, I now announce to you on behalf of the Wasteland Development Company that your era of colonization of Earth has ended."

"Send a representative over; the Wasteland Development Company will negotiate with you regarding post-war matters."

Soon.

Zhou Yi heard a stiff, unyielding voice.

We will never accept being enslaved again!

There's nothing to talk about.

You can destroy us now.

Zhou Yi was finding it difficult to remain calm.

Damn it, you guys are acting like you're heroically sacrificing yourselves.

"Chairman, they are very ungrateful."

Xiao Chongqing said angrily, "Chairman, let's just get rid of them."

"..."

Zhou Yi initially thought it was good too.

Let's just shoot it all and be done with it.

But a moment later.

He regained his composure.

The Celestials have a natural wariness and opposition to the String Civilization, and are a powerful ally in the long-term blockade of the String Civilization.

In addition, since they are planet terraformers and cosmic-level civil engineers, if their abilities can be used for good, it will greatly enhance the strength of Earth's civilization and shorten its development period.

Transforming the enemy is not something that can be rushed; it must be done step by step.

Zhou Yi decided to let them air out for a while before making any decisions.

"By the way, Little Chongqing. Have those Celestials who attacked Jupiter and were wiped out been completely destroyed?"

"Yes, Chairman, they were disassembled through the 12-dimensional space hole and restored to their string form, becoming part of Jupiter's many strings. However, they can also be reassembled if needed."

Zhou Yi was taken aback: "You can restore them to their original state?"

"OK."

Xiao Chongqing nodded, the mahjong earring on his earlobe swaying: "Jupiter is the processing factory of the terraformers. They were originally assembled life forms."

A flash of inspiration struck Zhou Yi: "We now have an intelligence core, Venus that produces gems, and Jupiter, which means we can produce celestial beings ourselves?"

"Yes."

Zhou Yi was overjoyed.

Then that's not a problem.

Xiao Chongqing asked, "Chairman, shall we assemble a completely new Tianren?"

Zhou Yi ordered, "Start assembly now."

If you old-fashioned stubborn elements refuse to accept reform, then we will create our own new generation of celestial beings!
If you don't do it, plenty of others will!
