Chapter 1166 The War Center
As for why the "Spirit of Pregnancy" is in Liu Sheng's possession.

The story begins with Liu Hongshan regaining his memory and the two of them leaving the scene.

I had just withdrawn when I felt an oppressive force descending from the sky.

A mass of flesh torn apart, a sticky, gelatinous, mottled cloud.

The moment it appeared, it opened all its mouths towards Liu Sheng and swallowed her whole in one gulp.

No one had time to react.

First, the speed was too fast.

Secondly, the gelatinous clouds obscured everything.

Thirdly—

Liu Sheng didn't care.

But Liu Hongshan immediately became anxious.

She is no longer the same as before—she has regained her memories, the memories of the war center, the ultimate weapon of mankind, and the first general of the empire—General Hongshan, and has directly advanced to the fourth level of power.

To be precise, it should be threefold, but Liu Hongyi has an extra one.

She raised her hand, activating the fourth level—the one that belonged to Liu Hongyi—
-
[Name]: Memorial Park
[Type]: Field
[Quality]: Legendary
【Effect】:
(1) The memorial park is an independent divine kingdom built into the war center, and is under the control of Liu Hongyi. There is no true annihilation in the park, but it is the eternal resting place of the heroic spirits of the battle.

(2) When a combat unit is dying on the battlefield, there is a chance that it will see the phantom of Liu Hongyi. She will give the dying person a final comfort, allowing them to walk peacefully into the memorial park instead of disappearing in fear.

[Consumption]: No consumption, but scene damage will require energy and time to repair.

[Comment]: I will keep watching you... forever...
-
The eerie paradise returned to the world, trapping flesh and blood within its own domain and severing her connection with other bloodlines.

The flesh and blood clearly lacked much consciousness; upon entering the paradise, it simply spun around in a daze.

Just as flesh and blood crashed into a carousel, a row of roller coaster frames, and a train slammed into her; then she stumbled and crashed onto a Ferris wheel, crushed beneath its massive wheel, her countless limbs flailing but unable to rise—

Liu Hongshan stomped his foot and took off like a cannonball, then twisted his body and threw a punch!
This punch looked ordinary.

The fist is not big.

No radiance was seen.

But it contains her third ability—
-
[Name]: Ultimate Weapon
[Type]: Active Skill

[Quality]: Legendary
【Effect】:
(1) Liu Hongshan itself is the ultimate weapon, and its existence is a strategic deterrent.

(2) Obtained by actively praying: Divine weapon descends
In dire situations, combat units can sacrifice their own life force to briefly replicate a trace of Liu Hongshan's "weapon divinity," entering a state of explosive power increase.

Each time a divine weapon descends, it depletes the very foundation of one's life. The user's lifespan will be drastically shortened as a result, and after the descent ends, the user will enter a "burnout" state for at least seven days, with all attributes dropping to the average level of an ordinary person.

Each combat unit can only withstand the divine descent a maximum of three times in its lifetime. The fourth time will burn its soul to ashes, destroying both its body and spirit, and it will even lose the qualification to become a heroic spirit.

There should be at least a year between the two incarnations, allowing the soul and body to recover from the brink of collapse.

(3) When territory or battle lines are subjected to a powerful invasion, the war center can be transformed into a pure "final line of defense" form—

By burning the accumulated spiritual essence of the divine kingdom and the heroic spirit legion, one can gain absolute combat power that surpasses others of the same level for a short period of time.

note:

1. This is a trump card to protect the divine kingdom at the cost of "forever losing a part of it".

2. The final defensive line can only last for one hour at most. Once the time is up, it will automatically dissipate, and Liu Hongshan will fall into a period of dormancy and weakness that will last for decades.

3. During this period, the efficiency of all war centers was halved, and a large number of heroic spirits fell into slumber due to the loss of divine nourishment.

[Consumption]: Maintaining this state requires "Boundary of Faith". Actively requesting the effect requires additional consumption.

[Evaluation]: What is the price of becoming a humanoid weapon...?
With exceptional combat talent and terrifying combat prowess, even unarmed, she could tear that strange mass of flesh apart, making it scream in agony.

The vesicles between the flesh burst open, spraying out yellow pus. Inside, incomplete human bodies were born, densely packed, like a blanket of flesh and blood, wriggling and rushing towards Liu Hongshan.

Liu Hongshan immediately used her second ability—
-
【Name】:Battle Heroic Spirit
[Type]: Passive Skill

[Quality]: Legendary
【Effect】:
(1) The brave and loyal combat units, whose souls do not fall into reincarnation, are guided to the central divine kingdom "memorial park", retaining their complete combat consciousness and personality from their previous life, and become combat spirits.

note:

One must have achieved a certain level of merit and have not shown any signs of cowardice or betrayal by the time of death. Souls who lacked firm beliefs or deserted in the face of battle will not be allowed to enter the memorial park.

Souls that are too shattered (such as those completely torn apart by a soul attack) can only have fragments of their obsession recovered, and can only become heroic spirits after a long period of repair.

(2) Obtained through active prayer: Summon Heroic Spirit
Combat units can summon heroic spirits to possess them or project them into their bodies to assist in battle.

When a Heroic Spirit possesses you, you briefly gain all of that Heroic Spirit's combat experience and some of its combat skills.

When projected to assist in battle, the heroic spirit fights independently in spirit form, with a combat strength of approximately 70%-90% of its former strength.

note:

Possession requires a certain physical body; those with insufficient cultivation cannot bear the full power of a high-level heroic spirit, and forced possession may lead to physical collapse. A single possession session typically lasts no more than 30 minutes.

After each summoning, a Heroic Spirit must rest and recover in the Memorial Park and cannot be summoned again for a short period. The same Heroic Spirit can be summoned a maximum of once per month.

Summoning a Heroic Spirit requires consuming Faith Bonds, and the summonable level is determined by the individual's Faith Bond reserves.

(3) Obtained through active prayer: Heroic Legion
In epic battles, the War Center can summon a Legion of Heroes projection to participate in the battle all at once. The cooldown period is 365 standard days.

Summoning a legion of 10,000 heroic spirits requires a massive amount of Faith Links, enough to temporarily downgrade all functions of the central hub.

During the summoning period, all other active functions of the War Hub (tactical simulation, war link expansion) are suspended.

[Cost]: Passive: No cost. Active: Requires additional cost for the effect of invoking, with reduced cost in "Memorial Park".

[Evaluation]: Congratulations on obtaining a permanent position.

As the bugle call to assemble sounded.

One by one, the spirits of the fallen heroes emerged from various parts of the memorial park.

They were all veterans of interstellar wars, most still wearing worn-out uniforms with faded medals hanging on their chests. Now, there are also many memorial park medals, keys, pendants, and other jingling trinkets.

Some were munching on cloud-like cotton candy, some were holding game controllers, and some even arrived in bumper cars or small airships.

All the heroic spirits saw the figure fighting on the mountain of flesh—it was as if a beam of light shone directly on her in the darkness, so clear, so bright.

Although her hair color is slightly different, her eyebrows and eyes still vaguely resemble those of the past.

An old soldier with several badges hanging on his chest paused, his eyes reddened, and he dropped the controller in his hand.

"It's the general!"

"The general is back!"

Such reactions are not uncommon.

But they quickly composed themselves, wiped away the tears that shouldn't have been there from the corners of their eyes, and one by one put their military caps back on, straightened their uniforms, and returned to their ranks.

Spiritual flames burned on his body, a tattered battle banner unfurled from the void, and the phantom of a weapon solidified in his hand.

"war!"

"Help the general deal with these scum!"

With weapons raised high and shouts blaring, the veterans rushed toward the distorted humanoid figures secreted from the vesicles.

Liu Hongshan's first level of ability then unfolded.
-
[Name]: War Central Hub
[Type]: Passive Skill

[Quality]: Legendary
【Effect】:
(1) Iron Throne (Level 1): Morale of all combat units in the Linked Central increases by 10%, firepower increases by 10%, and tactical execution accuracy increases by 10%.

note:

The Iron Throne advances by one level for each epic battle that alters the course of civilizations or for the complete destruction of a rival faction.

(2) Combat units under the central command gain "War Link," sharing vision, tactical information, and crisis awareness. Coordination efficiency is increased by 100% during collective combat, reaction speed is significantly enhanced, and fear and pain can be autonomously controlled. Note:

Link coverage depends on the strength of the central signal. At the virtual scale, excessive distance, spatial interference, or enemy information blockade may lead to delays or disconnections.

This ability is limited by the personal information carrying capacity. Exceeding this capacity will lead to cognitive overload, manifesting as dizziness and impaired judgment; continued overload may cause permanent mental damage.

(3) Actively requesting acquisition: tactical simulation
It can simulate several future battle scenarios and select the optimal path; it can also integrate frontline intelligence into the central system in real time to generate dynamic combat maps.

note:

The accuracy of the simulation depends entirely on the quality and completeness of the intelligence obtained.

Each battle can typically only be fully simulated once, with subsequent adjustments only made locally.

The simulation consumes a large amount of computing resources in the central system, and frequent use will reduce the reaction speed of all linked units.

[Consumption]: "World" can reduce consumption, enhance link effects, and increase deduction speed.

[Evaluation]: Good news: You're not fighting alone; bad news: Everyone saw you slacking off.
-
An invisible steel throne rose behind her, like a colossal throne forged from cannon fire, warships, and the will of countless dead souls.

The morale of all combat units in the link hub instantly soared.

More importantly, these heroic spirits no longer charge individually; all their vision and perception are now linked together.

Information from different perspectives is interwoven to form optimal combat commands, and dangers can be anticipated through mutual warnings.

As the war spread.

These twisted humanoid figures kept falling down.
Meanwhile, Liu Hongshan continued to interfere with this massive flesh and blood—

That is, the "spirit of conception".

The "Spirit of Childbirth" has similar abilities to Liu Sheng, but its main focus is not on combat, but rather on support and area-of-effect amplification. Its most terrifying aspect is its control and influence over bloodlines.

But now that the bloodline is gone, their greatest reliance is gone.

In addition, she was mentally impaired and her movements were stiff, making even turning around extremely difficult, so she could only endure the beatings.

The only things to be commended about it are its recovery ability and physical strength.

The wound reopens but heals quickly.

And those inside the vesicles are still gestating.

Under the siege of the heroic spirits, one wave was wiped out only to be replaced by a new one, only smaller and smaller.

In the end, what condensed into human figures were all the size of a thumb.

The "Spirit of Childbirth" has reached its limit in terms of restorative ability.

With Liu Hongshan's powerful punch, all the mouthparts of the "Spirit of Pregnancy" simultaneously emitted painful groans, which echoed back and forth.

The flesh burst open under the fist, creating a huge, deep gash.

Liu Hongshan peered inside, unsure of how deep the cavity was, and he couldn't see Liu Sheng anywhere.

Just as I was worrying, a burst of vibrant lightning suddenly erupted from the deep darkness, followed by a torrent of dense, golden tentacles that spewed out like a giant golden flower blooming from flesh and blood.

A figure leaped out from it.

The "Spirit of Pregnancy" let out a deafening cry of pain and finally collapsed to the ground. Its flesh seemed to have lost its elasticity, leaving only a soft, limp layer of skin, and a large amount of blood spread like a flood.

Liu Hongshan looked at Liu Sheng and breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he turned to the surrounding spirits, gave them a deep look, and bowed. The spirits, with tears in their eyes, returned the bow and gradually faded away.

The memorial park also disappeared along with it.

In a fleeting glance, one could almost see a blonde, blue-eyed figure among them, the sunflower on her top smiling broadly.

Liu Hongshan was slightly taken aback.

Looking down, I found a lollipop with General Hongshan's smiling face printed on it in my hand.

Looking up again, everything had vanished without a trace, except for the "Spirit of Pregnancy" limply floating among the sea of ​​clouds.

……

The Izetta Foundation was acquired by the New World.

The news spread quickly throughout the planet Variegated.

Before the live stream ended that day, everyone could see clearly that, both logically and given the situation at the time, the New World should have been annexed by Izetta.

But who could have imagined that the reality was not like that?

It took a complete turn!

What happened?

Although there is no official news, there are some scattered rumors circulating.

First, the "New World" has more than one unknowable being of the three realms;
Second, the unknowable beings of the "New World" defeated the "Spirits of Creation".

There was even a blurry video circulating online of two women returning with a mass of soft, bloody flesh called the "Spirit of Pregnancy".

This caused a sensation throughout the entire planet of Banlan.

If we can defeat the "Spirit of Pregnancy", it means that our realms should be about the same. There is another fourth-level expert on the Colorful Star.
The landscape of the strong is truly about to change.

Even more shockingly, the Izeta Group's board of directors issued a statement before the merger, officially abolishing the clauses regarding control in the original agreement.

Many people strongly oppose this.

Those who had already staked their future on the Izetta Foundation reacted most strongly.

In their view, this was not liberation, but rather the cutting off of their path.

All that hard work and money for physical modifications is so that one day you can join the Izetta Foundation and become a recognized part of that bloodline, right?
Now, all that's happened. A simple "abolish" has turned the tickets they thought they could get into worthless paper.

As a result, many people are considering whether to join Bell Labs.

However, joining Bell Labs also requires a large sum of money. Many people have already spent a lot of money on physical modifications, so how can they afford to pay another fee for Pro believers?
Not to mention, becoming a follower of Bell Labs requires giving up one's physical body, which is a completely different matter.

Just as people were hesitating and weighing their options, another piece of news shook the world—

The New World has passed the nobles' approval.

This in itself is not unusual.

There are six unknown beings.

With so many Izetta Foundation members joining the New World, the required number of people should be met by now.

But what was truly surprising was another piece of news that followed—a large number of former Izetta Foundation members were not accepted into the New World.

It is said that the New World conducts a moral and criminal record check when accepting members, and anyone who has violated or disregarded life is ineligible to join.

How could they gather enough people so quickly, within a single day?
The New World did not make this matter public.

They just released another message—

The new world will now recruit its people from across the entire planet of Splendor.

That's right.

They are members of the same clan.

Rather than being dependent.
