Chapter 746: Mother Earth! (1/2)
In the world where time stood still, everything was so serene, so intriguing.
At least to Heng, such a scene was a rare sight, given that few could prompt him to use his Third Eye Tribe's innate abilities.
He moved towards Leng Yuwei, scrutinized her for a second, but despite his memories, he couldn't recall who she was.
It wasn't that he forgot her; rather, he vividly remembered her but forgot everything about her, a distinctly unsettling feeling.
Had he not encountered her, he would never have remembered this sensation, which annoyed him greatly.
"First, kill that human, then take you back to the elders for examination."
Resolved, Heng appeared before Su Chen, his eyes showing a hint of contempt as he reached out to grab Su Chen’s head.
Just as he was about to crush Su Chen’s head, a beam of light from Earth pierced through the temporal barrier, enveloping Su Chen.
Heng was momentarily stunned, then furious, shouting, "Planet consciousness, how dare you!"
Time stoppage might sound impressive, but it has limitations, one being its ineffectiveness against planet consciousness.
This wasn’t Heng’s discovery but knowledge imparted by the Dream Shadow Clan’s elders.
Heng considered many possibilities but never imagined that the planet consciousness would aid a human.
Wrapped in the beam, Su Chen regained consciousness, instantly understanding his predicament. The Dream Shadow Clan powerhouse could stop time!
“Never underestimate the Universe races; this is a lesson indeed,” sighed Su Chen.
He knew the System wouldn’t just watch him die, but he didn’t expect Earth consciousness, not the System, to intervene.
At that moment, Su Chen felt like he was embraced by a mother, a comforting warmth.
Knowing Earth consciousness bought him time, Su Chen needed a plan.
The only counter to time stoppage was time freeze!
With a thought, a new object appeared, resembling a small warship named the Paradox Engine.
As a temporal superweapon, the Paradox Engine could stop time and move freely within it, unfazed by other time stoppages.
“Impossible! What technology is this, moving within a time-stopped world?” Heng gaped in disbelief.
He was aware of spatial technology but had never heard of temporal technology.
But witnessing the warship move, he had to admit the existence of temporal technology.
“This is an unexpected gain. This warship, I want it.”
Realizing its value, Heng was excited. This could be the first object related to temporal technology, potentially granting him control over the universe.
The Dream Shadow Clan aspired to be deities of the universe, not just minor races.
But he underestimated the Paradox Engine’s combat power. As a superweapon, it was formidable, and with System upgrades, even Su Chen hadn’t seen its full potential.
Its main purpose had always been as a trump card.
