All the heavens, starting as the ruler of the universe

Chapter 92 A Small Gathering

"Everyone, please avoid the area where Leviathan crashed."

A brief confirmation reply came through the communication channel.

You Lingfeng hovered above the clouds, looking down at the enormous creature below.

The body, which was over two hundred meters long, was slowly and irreversibly falling downwards. Its whiplashes were still twitching, no longer the rhythmic swings of those in battle, but rather the spasms of someone on the verge of death.

The inhibitors accelerated the neutralization reaction within its body, and the special gases, which were much lighter than air, were stripped away layer by layer, no longer able to support the weight of this behemoth.

The moment Leviathan crashed into the Pacific Ocean, a ring of white, massive waves exploded on the surface.

The waves surged and spread in all directions, causing the destroyer several kilometers away to shake violently.

The sailor on deck gripped the handrail, cursed, and then grinned.

You Lingfeng descended from above the clouds, his boots striking the broken whiplashes near Leviathan's head with a dull metallic clang.

He glanced down at the giant beast beneath his feet, then looked up at the salvage fleet approaching on the distant horizon.

More than a dozen large transport ships surrounded the area from three directions at the same time, with the insignia of the Pacific Fleet painted on their sides.

Several heavy transport helicopters were flying in the air, carrying huge cutting platforms, their rotors roaring and creating fine ripples on the sea surface.

He didn't go down to give orders, nor did he need to.

You Lingfeng stood on the whip bristles, the wind making the hem of his coat flutter.

He recalled when the behemoth first appeared, humanity used naval guns to attack it and fighter jets to bomb it, but eventually found that nothing could penetrate it, and the only option was to use nuclear bombs to perish together with it.

The cost was too high; the pollution radius turned the protected land into scorched earth.

Back then, there were no inhibitors or specially made armor-piercing projectiles. Every time, he would rush in alone, make a hole in the skull, and blow the behemoth to pieces from the inside.

Now, the Colossus missile can fly to Leviathan on its own.

His mission changed from fighting alone to cleaning up after the bullets exploded, transforming him from a lone warrior facing death into a safety net for the army.

He couldn't say he was dissatisfied.

Although most of the technology in this world is focused on weaponry, with specialized armor-piercing projectiles, inhibitors, laser cutting, and high-polymer anti-corrosion coatings, each of these technologies serves the purpose of warfare.

But this is at least much better than the previous stagnant state, technological stagnation, and mutual distrust between countries.

The behemoths forced them to move forward, forcing different countries to share resources and technology.

Those who used to test each other on the border are now logistics ministers for the same army.

He wanted more than just victory in this war; he wanted these people to continue standing side by side like they do now after the war ended.

The salvage fleet dispersed around Leviathan, forming an operational circle with a diameter of three kilometers.

The first to arrive was the buoyancy control team.

Three large salvage vessels lined up in a triangular formation around Leviathan, with cranes on their sides starting up simultaneously to slowly lower dozens of thick steel cables into the water.

The steel cable was secured to the Leviathan by a specially designed giant hook at its bottom, and then connected to the offshore operating platform.

Divers have been working below Leviathan for half an hour. They are maneuvering an underwater workboat to wrap steel cables around the giant's body, tying knots at key load-bearing points, and then placing specially made giant buoys at special nodes of the steel cables.

The searchlights of the workboats streaked across the deep water, casting eerie blue beams that illuminated the Leviathan's dark gray hull.

After the buoyation team completed its operation, the cutting team descended from the transport helicopter and landed steadily on the offshore work platform.

Two rows of laser cutting arms unfold from both sides of the platform, ionizing the air into a dazzling blue-white color, and melting the shell into cuts at high temperatures.

The container numbers on the sorting ship are flashing on the screen, and the parameters on the data panel are being refreshed line by line.

You Lingfeng did not linger here for long; he simply collected the energy core of Leviathan and left.

The Transmigrator Base.

When You Lingfeng stepped out of the rift, he almost thought he had entered the wrong door.

Ao Qing, Kara, Peter, Zhang Jingyuan, Liu Ming, and Xu Che—all of them were gathered in the central square.

He walked over to Ao Qing, following everyone's gaze to the center, and asked, "What's this?"

A menacing and imposing suit of armor stood on the open ground, its silver-gray Uru metal surface covered with Celestial Palace runes, and its energy core on its chest was still glowing faintly.

"The Destroyer Armor, Lin brought it back." Ao Qing said directly before he could ask, his eyes still fixed on the rune markings on the armor's chest.

"I remember this thing is Odin's armor, right? Brother Lin, you brought it all back?" You Lingfeng also remembered where the armor came from.

Of course he knows Marvel, and he knows Odin.

The Allfather of the Gods of Asgard, a Celestial-level being, and the guardian of the Nine Realms.

Some say that Thanos didn't dare to personally invade Earth while Odin was alive because he was afraid of alarming the old god-king.

Odin's armor now stood in the center of the transmigrator base's plaza, like a silent giant just captured from the battlefield.

"With Brother Lin's strength, getting a suit of armor is a piece of cake. Let alone Odin's armor, I wouldn't be surprised if you brought Odin himself here." Ao Qing waved his hand dismissively.

"Then what are you all doing gathered here?"

"Brother Lin turned this thing into a sparring partner." Ao Qing reached out and tapped the energy core on the Destroyer's chest, his knuckles striking the Uru metal with a dull thud.

"Odin's blessing endowed this armor with combat instincts, and Brother Lin made a small modification that allows it to automatically match the strength level of the opponent."

"and----"

"And what?" You Lingfeng asked.

"And this armor can be worn."

You Lingfeng's finger paused for a moment. "Wear it?"

Ao Qing nodded, his golden pupils reflecting the slowly pulsating dark orange light on the Destroyer's chest.

"Yes. Whoever wears it will gain the full power of this armor: the defense of the Uru metal, the energy output of the Asgardian runes, and the combat instincts blessed by Odin—all transferred to the wearer."

There was a moment of silence.

Kara lowered her arms from her chest, Peter stood up from the Destroyer's feet, and even Zhang Jingyuan, who had been silently recording data, turned around.

"Whose consciousness will dominate after the fusion?" You Lingfeng asked.

This is a crucial question.

The Destroyer armor itself possesses a fighting instinct, and the fighting spirit of Asgard remains within the runes of Odin's blessing.

If the wearer's will is not strong enough, they may be suppressed by the armor.

"It depends on the person." Ao Qing turned his head, his gaze shifting from the Destroyer to You Lingfeng's face. "Brother Lin said that the rune system of this armor will automatically assess the wearer's willpower."

If you can suppress it, you can control it; if you can't suppress it, it will automatically reject you.

The rejection reaction, in mild cases, can cause someone to be shaken off; in severe cases, he didn't elaborate, but I don't think it's necessary to try it.
