Chapter 1085: Chapter 191: Ascension-Type Talents 1

"What is an Apostle?"

"Who is it?"

"Boss, do you know it?"

Gao Gong smiled without answering.

"Are you a member of the Crystal Core Race? Does your species have a way to refer to itself?"

"Just like this ever-changing Energy Realm, since the birth of our consciousness, there’s been no concept or name for individuals. Splitting and recombining are natural events; however, ever since those clones occupied this planet, our race has silently observed their lifestyle and survival methods, absorbing the knowledge akin to ours and gradually forming self-thought and consciousness. You can call me Crystal 10."

"Are you an Energy Lifeform or a Clone?" The Little Woman was a bit confused by the other’s words.

Crystal 10 slowly explained:

"Our race’s original method of gestation is through the fission of Alpha Elements. Over the past million years since the birth of this planet, there have been 143 major Alpha Element reactions, giving birth to 143 of our kind."

"However, since we learned those cloning techniques, we can create a fellow of ours artificially in just 10 to 100 years."

"So, you can understand us as an Energy Species that proliferates through cloning."

The Little Woman was stunned for a long time, giving a thumbs-up:

"Impressive!"

"Can you let me study you?" Dr. Yuu’s eyes gleamed.

"You mean this avatar? I can give it to you for free, as a friend of the Apostle," Crystal 10 said politely.

"This is only an avatar?!"

Most present were Tier 2 and could sense the terrifying energy fluctuations from the other person. To put it this way, a large starship at full power wouldn’t exceed this level.

So this is just an avatar!?

"What’s your main body then?"

"That is my main body."

Following the direction of the pointing hand, there was a boundless land of Radiance forming the Crystal Core World, enclosed above by nine layers of energy atmosphere and below the Earth Core, resembling a giant energy nucleus.

"The Energy Level of this place is at the trillion-level."

Lolita’s pupils had vanished, replaced by dense electronic data. In her Alpha Civilization, the greatest energy production machine, the ’Star Energy Ring,’ which charged and confined her main body, also harnessed energy only up to this level.

"You can consider it as a Star Core, just that there are many Star Cores on this planet, a total of 143," Gao Gong explained.

"If your clan has a total of 143 trillion-level energy conglomerates, why did the Walter Clan occupy the planet?" General Quel’s war instincts were sharp.

The Walter Clan’s strongest weapon, the Planet Cannon, is merely a trillion-level energy weapon.

This group of ’Crystal Core Spirits’ wouldn’t need to do anything else; they just need to block the Walter Clan’s stronghold, fully releasing their energy to burn the clones alive.

This is over a hundred humanoid Star Cores!!

"Because Alpha Elements are inert energies and the most desirable clean energy for any civilization."

Gao Gong explained on behalf of the other party.

"These elements themselves are non-lethal, and the main bodies of the ’Crystal Core Race’ cannot move, also considering the extreme scarcity of species on this planet, the Planet Will cannot be mobilized, which means, even if the Walter Clan kept causing trouble, they could only watch."

"Don’t think of them as nuclear power plants, consider them planet-level water mills."

"I see, I wondered why these powerful guys seemed to have no combat ability."

The Little Woman casually patted the other’s shoulder.

"We’ll be neighbors from now on, so let’s get along well."

Crystal 10 paused and nodded hesitantly.

"So, you call him the Apostle because he saved you?" Ye the Big Lolita asked, as a superpower user from the Dark Energy Dimension, she also had an eye on these gentle super energy lifeforms.

"Yes, the Apostle stopped a planetary catastrophe, and he carries the blessings of all within the Crystal Core Race."

Planet Apostle (special profession) (non-upgradable): You saved the energy ecosystem of the Long-horned Whale Alpha from the ’Flesh Disaster.’ You are blessed by the Crystal Core Race and can freely utilize Planet Energy within the planet’s magnetic field. Your Will is an extension of the Planet Will.

"Alright, we’ll have plenty of time for idle chat later, let’s get to the main task first."

Seeing everyone circling Crystal 10, Gao Gong interrupted the interaction.

Crystal 10 naturally preferred to follow the Apostle’s direction, immediately breaking away from the carbon-based bipeds and leading the way through layers of manual code-locked doors into the core launch system of the Planet Cannon.

The reason Crystal 10 was so familiar with this system was because it was part of it; its consciousness was responsible for signal transmission in the signal-impenetrable Land of Crystal Core.

It did so because it was threatened by Old Walter.

As the alloy gate slowly opened, an aged figure sat alone in a chair, with a head full of white hair, exuding an indescribable sense of desolation.

Old Walter!

However, the Little Woman, Ye the Big Lolita, and General Quel all showed shock, assuming defensive postures. Ye the Big Lolita’s eyes turned black, with countless black threads emerging from the air, while the Little Woman’s nape turned transparent, as if numerous Radiation Beasts were swimming within.

"Alright, this isn’t him," Gao Gong paused and said, "If I’m not mistaken, the reason you look identical to the Cloned Race Leader is because back in the Level 3 Clone Civilization, two clones were dispatched instead of one, right?"

This ’Old Walter’ shakily stood up, turned around, revealing a white-haired, white-bearded face, and a thin, bony stature.

Although looking identical to Old Walter, everyone present could see this was definitely not Old Walter.

Those sharp eyes, as opposed to Old Walter’s shrewd demeanor, were two extremes.

Gao Gong knew that only those super elites cultivated by certain civilizations would have that aura, indifferent to, or even transcending, their own civilization’s ethics, surpassing a generation’s life cycles. Compared to the top scientists in a specific field, their perception of the Civilization Technology Tree is much deeper. If such a person belongs to a singular life form civilization, their thoughts surpass individualism, regarding thousands of planets, all civilization’s life, and themselves, as fuel for Civilization Ascension.

Such individuals are called Civilization Sword Holders, known as Ascension-type talent according to the System Panel.

’Old Walter’ calmly glanced at them. Although his life force seemed weak, his gaze made one feel like there was a prickle on their back.

"I am the protector of the Cloning Plan, he is the executor. This experiment was meant to be operated by two people."

"Since you’ve come, it means the experiment has failed. As the protector, I am obliged to protect the last technical data from leaking."

As ’Old Walter’s’ words fell, his gaze instantly dimmed.
