Chapter 639: Chapter 323: Return to the Manifestation Space! The Mechanical Race Takes Action, Humanity in Crisis!_2
Even a seven-star powerhouse cannot resist the temptation of food after being hungry for hundreds or thousands of years.
However, Su Yu initially thought that these people would indulge for hours without stopping.
Su Yu was prepared to step in and stop them after they had eaten enough, to prevent them from overeating and getting sick.
Yet, the meal ended rather quickly.
After about ten minutes, they all simultaneously put down the food in their hands, although their expressions were full of reluctance.
Su Yu was puzzled by this sight.
Then he used the Power of Machine God to examine past destinies and discovered that these people had undergone training.
What to do if they one day get to eat normal food?
The rule was not to eat too much since normal food was like "poison" to them; consuming too much could be deadly.
They could eat small amounts and gradually adapt, but they must not overeat.
This training was arranged by the elders.
Perhaps most of them had not expected this training to actually come in handy.
"Amazing, they really were prepared for everything!"
"Even without me, given some time they might have managed to escape on their own."
Su Yu couldn’t help but admire these people’s resilience.
The situation for the humans here was desperate, yet they had prepared for everything and never gave up.
After they set down the food, they all looked at Su Yu.
Previously, they looked at Su Yu as their savior.
But now, their eyes had changed to those of a believer looking at a deity.
And they all had the eyes of a fanatic.
If they truly prayed, Su Yu had even thought of the prayer: "Oh Great God of Food..."
Su Yu had brought them such delicious food; wasn’t he the God of Food?
However, Su Yu did feel a bit embarrassed about this.
After all, Su Yu felt he hadn’t done anything remarkable so far.
He merely provided them a meal, and most of it was cold, yet these people treated him like a god.
"Ahem, why aren’t you continuing to eat?"
Su Yu asked, trying to change the subject.
An Elder spoke up to explain: "We have had relevant training and dare not eat too much."
"Moreover, there are many fellow city dwellers who haven’t had the opportunity to enjoy the food either, so it wouldn’t feel right for us to indulge extensively."
Su Yu nodded and said, "Indeed, the humans in the city haven’t had anything good to eat yet. These foods should also be shared among them..."
As Su Yu spoke, he suddenly frowned.
Because Su Yu, through the Power of Machine God, sensed something amiss with the situation of humans in the city.
It seemed the Mechanical Creations were preparing to capture humans!
"What’s going on? Has my involvement been exposed?"
Su Yu felt a heavy weight in his heart.
He immediately fully activated the Power of Machine God to sense what was happening on the King’s side.
At this moment, without the Galaxy Battle Armor as an anchor, Su Yu’s perception was entirely chaotic, unable to see anything clearly.
But from this chaos, Su Yu managed to extract some information.
A surge of extremely angry and agitated emotion emanated from the chaos, as if a tyrant had sensed a life-and-death threat and was about to unleash a massacre.
The wrath of a king, leaving corpses in the wake of a million!
"What’s happening? What has provoked the King and its God of Pain?"
"Wait a minute, the God of Pain also has the ability to observe destiny..."
"Could it be that my recent entry and exit from the Manifestation Space, during which I interacted with information from the outside world, has been discovered by this unformed god?"
Su Yu pondered, speculating the truth behind the change with the Power of Machine God.
Although without evidence, Su Yu felt that this was most likely the truth.
Su Yu’s ability to freely enter and exit the Manifestation Space almost placed him in an invincible position, with an overwhelming advantage.
And this time, his entry and exit might have been sensed by the King and the unformed God of Pain.
They immediately understood the danger represented by this.
Thus, the King gave orders to take action, instructing the Mechanical Race to capture all humans, though it was unclear what their intention was.
"The god the King seeks to create is the God of Pain."
"Is it trying to torture these humans, and use their pain to hasten the maturity of this God of Pain?"
"But the King’s God of Pain is the deity of the Mechanical Race. Mixing in human pain, won’t it cause problems?"
"Or has the King already gone completely insane, without any scruples?"
"Whatever the case, saving these humans comes first!"
Su Yu thought rapidly and immediately employed the Power of Machine God to connect with the intelligent master brain, the Giant God.
He utilized the Power of Machine God along with the power of the Manifestation Mechanic to quickly invade the core database of the Giant God.
He began sorting through all the humans in the city.
Soon, Su Yu’s vision was densely filled with points of light, like stars filling the sky.
Each point of light represented a human in the city.
At this moment, they were facing capture by the Mechanical Race.
Once captured, they could face extreme torture, becoming sacrifices to hasten the God of Pain!
"Mr. Su Yu, what’s wrong..."
The elders, seeing Su Yu pause mid-sentence with a heavy expression, were puzzled and couldn’t help but ask.
However, halfway through their question, they too suddenly changed their expressions: "This is not good!"
It seemed they had received intelligence, knowing that the Mechanical Race had begun capturing humans!
"How can this be, these mechanical beasts, what are they trying to do..."
The elders cursed furiously, then immediately tried to mobilize their powers to adjust the Elder Council Space and go to the city to save people.
They were anxious and, according to intelligence, the Mechanical Race intended to capture every human in one sweep.
With a population of a million, how could they rescue them all? They would certainly need to make choices, but who would they save? Who would they abandon?
Moreover, those left behind were certain to be the majority, only a few could survive.
In mere moments, they already felt severe inner conflict.
Abandoning most to save a select few presented a brutally difficult choice.
It was like the classic trolley problem.
Now this dilemma was right in front of them, made a thousand times more difficult by the fact that there were a million lives waiting.
And they had no choice but to decide.
At this moment, their hearts were bleeding.
Yet before these human elders could figure out who to choose,
the Elder Council Space suddenly filled with countless humans out of thin air, packed densely.
Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand... soon reaching a full million, the space was bursting at the seams.
If Su Yu hadn’t previously expanded the space, it might not have contained them all.
"What’s this?"
The elders were incredulous at the sight!
They had just been agonizing over whom to save and whom to abandon.
But in the blink of an eye, everyone was saved? What was going on?
"It’s Mr. Su Yu!"
The crowd quickly realized it was Su Yu’s doing; who else could have such capability?
Su Yu exhaled, smiled slightly and said: "Those Mechanical Race members suddenly went mad trying to capture humans. Fortunately, I’ve gained some control over this Manifestation Space and brought them all here."
"Let them stay here until the battle ends."
It turned out Su Yu had used the Power of Machine God, the force of the Manifestation Mechanic, to invade the core database of the Giant God, tapped into computational power, adjusted humans’ position coordinates, and teleported them here.
Thus avoiding the threat of being captured by the Mechanical Race.
In the Manifestation Space, moving positions was actually a matter of adjusting coordinate data. Once you have the necessary permissions, such mass teleportation is possible.
The previous Su Yu couldn’t have accomplished this.
But after taking the role of Manifestation Mechanic and advancing to nine-star levels, he significantly increased his prowess in the data realm and gained more control over Manifestation Space permissions, resulting in such a feat!
"Thank you, Mr. Su Yu! Thank you, Mr. Su Yu!"
At this moment, the elders were overjoyed and repeatedly expressed their gratitude.
...
Meanwhile, in the King’s palace.
"All those humans have disappeared?"
"Of course, it’s Su Yu!"
