It's time to improve the strength of the infinite world

Chapter 239: Space Ishtar & the Beginning of the Servant Universe

"White destruction..."

Ishtar frowned, her eyes revealing a deep contemplation.

After a long while, she finally let out a breath slowly, her tone sounding somewhat helpless: "——That's true."

The goddess is actually not unfamiliar with this concept. After all, human history has also encountered the same alien invasion crisis.

The vanguards sent out by the predatory planet swept through the gods on Earth.

Not only was civilization shattered, but even the gods were shattered.

It was not until the very last moment that the strongest illusion was refined from within the planet, and a single blow swung by human hands killed the Wandering Planet Soldier.

But there is no doubt that -

The consequences of this war were severe. After suffering heavy damage from the White Giant, the Age of Gods began to decline.

After discussing with Ereshkigal, Ishtar becomes more and more convinced that this world may be a destroyed parallel world, facing a similar crisis to pan-human history, but with a completely different ending.

Therefore, the rampant behavior of the Wandering Star Pioneer has become a reality, and no one can stop its progress.

Eventually a meteor streaked across the sky, the earth disappeared, and the surface of the planet turned into a sea of nothingness.

This is something that has undoubtedly happened. Although it is the first time, it will definitely not be the last time. The Predator will never stop its harvester behavior of traveling across the universe and preying on planets.

So what this person said is right. As long as the earth becomes prosperous again, it will inevitably be regarded as a hunting ground again.

only--

"Actually, there's no need to be so radical..."

The girl with long black straight hair bit her lips lightly and said hesitantly:

"With your current strength, even if the White Giant God comes again, you can actually easily deal with it, right?"

"..."

"..."

"Of course, that's the way it is. It's only a temporary solution, not a permanent one..."

The magician looked at her calmly, then shook his head slightly.

Just talking about the Wandering Planet Vanguard, on this place where demons run rampant, there are too many things that can destroy it in seconds.

However, what is there to brag about if it's just killing a vanguard?

"Cure the root cause? Are you still thinking of killing Youxing's real body?" Miss Ishtar's eyes twitched slightly, and she looked at the guy in front of her in disbelief.

"Why not?"

Xia Zhi blinked his eyes: "After all, if Kou can go, I can go too - right?"

"Hmm, so I understand that you don't just want to put your eggs in multiple baskets, but you want to take the initiative?"

The girl curled her lips.

"Otherwise, it would be too passive to always wait for the enemy to attack." Xia Zhi admitted nonchalantly, "Anyway, I don't want to adopt a retreating strategy, such as heading to the Inner Sea of the Star or the Throne of God to avoid facing the facts."

"Who's backing off? Who are you saying is backing off?"

Ishtar's eyes widened immediately. Who is this guy pointing at?

"Oh, I'm just giving an example." The young man's eyes drifted away subtly, not meeting her gaze.

"What examples? You're just making indirect accusations..." The girl with long straight black hair gritted her teeth in anger.

"No, no, it's just a provocation at best."

"You actually admitted it!"

"The point is not whether this is good or not, the point is that you are not moved?"

Xia Zhi coughed lightly and changed the subject abruptly: "Aren't you the slightest bit tempted by my proposal?" As he spoke, he raised his hand and made a "a little bit" gesture.

"What's so exciting about this?!" Ishtar glared at him and said fiercely with gritted teeth.

"No, you are Ishtar, the willful and self-centered Ishtar!"

The magician looked surprised and gestured with his hands open, "Others have come to your door, can you still tolerate this?"

"Wait a minute! What do you mean by being willful and self-centered? Are you praising me or mocking me?"

"Don't worry about the details, the key point is whether you can endure it?" Xia Zhi waved his hand with full momentum, looking at her with his sharp eyes.

"Well--"

Miss Ishtar was speechless for a moment.

——Is this tolerable?
——This is really unbearable!

The main reason is that we couldn't defeat them no matter what we did before. Even when fighting against the evil demons from outer space, there was no need to talk about the code of conduct and everyone fought side by side, but we still couldn't defeat them.

But what about now?

This guy obviously looks like he's ready to take the lead in establishing the "Anti-Yuxing Alliance". Does that mean I don't dare to go all in?
No, this isn't even an all-in bet, and there's no risk at all.

After all, this world is a parallel world, everything is starting over, and she is not the original, but a pseudo-Servant, a Servant from pan-human history...

——No matter how you look at it, she has no worries at all, and doesn't have to worry about bringing trouble to Mesopotamia.

——After all, all the gods in this world line have disappeared completely.

——Are you still not brave enough to follow suit?
At this moment, Miss Ishtar suddenly realized, yes, what should she worry about?

Seeing the girl's slow reaction and obvious intention, Xia Zhi continued to persuade her:

"Yes, you should have discovered that we really have no reason to continue to hold on to the Earth..."

"It can be our cradle, our hometown and home, our shelter and base camp in the rear..."

"But it cannot be our only choice. The sea of stars is the path we should embark on..."

"We will conquer the sea in the sky!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his arms, as if he wanted to embrace the world while giving a speech, and his words were extremely persuasive and inciting.

Because of the all-round upgrading of various skills, from entry to mastery, from entry to perfection, the power of charm is naturally no exception.

Not only can he control the power of charm with ease, but he can also unconsciously apply it to every aspect of his words and actions.

This kind of silent and subtle application does not appear abrupt or direct.

But it undoubtedly has a considerable impact on his persuasion, instigation, and so on.

“Well, you, don’t—! Wait a minute, let me sort it out—” The girl’s divine nature did not trigger the warning, but she still tried to stay calm. She felt that she’d better think about it carefully.

hateful.

Why are this guy's words so tempting!

"What are you waiting for? Join me, make it bigger and stronger, and create greater glory!"

Xia Zhi stepped forward with a serious face, and his decisive aura forced the goddess to take a small step back subconsciously.

If there wasn't an empty space behind her with no wall, she would have thought that this guy was going to press his fist against her.

Of course, even if it wasn’t a wall-bang, the girl’s heart almost skipped a beat.

And at the moment when her mind became a little blank, the young man also seized this opportunity and used his words to pua her——

"This small piece of land has restricted you for too long. You are the goddess of nature and harvest, the goddess of love and beauty, the goddess of war and the symbol of Venus!"

"But just on this planet, guess how many contenders there are for these titles and prefixes?"

“So, it’s time to open up a new track!”

"You should belong to a bigger stage!"

"..."

"..."

A silence.

Although the girl felt inexplicably embarrassed and annoyed when she came to her senses, she also felt that she was completely convinced.

At this moment, she couldn't help but feel her heart pounding. What the other party said made so much sense, and it made the goddess in her heart eager to try.

"A wider stage?" she asked as if wanting to confirm.

"Yes, think about it, the world outside is so vast, and how high you can reach?" Xia Zhi said seriously and continued to try to pua her.

"..."

"..."

"For example, the real... goddess Venus?"

Ishtar hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Absolutely, without any ambiguity, like the planet UO?"

"That won't do, Ishtar. You should have a longer-term vision. What is there to boast about the goddess Venus?"

The young man couldn't help but sigh, looking disappointed.

"It's just that from Earth to Venus, we are still confined to this small piece of land, and we haven't really set our sights on the sea of stars."

"..."

"..."

"So——?" the girl hesitated.

"..."

"..."

"For example... Space Ishtar? What do you think of this title?"

When it comes to summer solstice, there is no ambiguity in the picture.

"It is said that our goal is the sea of stars. The focus is on the sea, not the stars. You should not stick to a specific celestial body, but strive to cast sunlight on the entire space and the entire galaxy..."

"Add the prefix 'space'? I refuse. Space doesn't sound cute at all!"

The girl with long straight black hair pouted. She thought about it and felt that she might not like this nickname very much.

——Space Ishtar?

——What the hell is this!
"Ahem, we can talk about the nickname later. Anyway, we must first establish a lofty goal."

Xia Zhi did not comment on this. Anyway, for now he was just promising her some encouragement. Besides, that was all in the future, so who could say for sure?
"Okay, okay, then let's do as you say and set a lofty goal..."

Ishtar sighed.

"But is this really enough?"

"Enough, enough. The arrival of the technological singularity is very scary. You have to know how long it took from the use of the Mauser rifle to the launch of the first artificial satellite..."

Xia Zhi replied nonchalantly: "According to the hunting cycle of wandering stars, we still have at least 6,000 years."

If at all costs, all restrictions are lifted——

Then it will only take eighty years for Grey Wind to build a Dyson sphere in the solar system.

Given the terrifying ability of nanomachines to replicate and spread exponentially, it is likely that in six thousand years their influence will have extended to Andromeda.

As for himself, if he had practiced for six thousand years and still hadn't reached a higher level...

That doesn't seem to make sense.

"Technical problems are easy to solve, but what about humans? If we want to reach the stars and the sea, we must at least undergo a new evolution and become a life form of the next era, right?"

Ishtar frowned.

"Isn't this easier to solve? We have ready-made templates to use." Xia Zhi was not worried at all and said with a laugh.

“A ready-made template?”

"Yes, there is a view in the magic world that after humans, the next stage of life should be spiritual life that abandons the physical body..."

The magician gave an example and said, "According to this line of thought, don't you think the Servant is the best form?"

"..."

"..."

The goddess looked on speechlessly.

No matter how you look at it, this guy seems to be well prepared.

But indeed, if we look at it from this standard, Servants can indeed be seen as a more advanced form of human evolution.

It is also very suitable for opening the era of interstellar navigation.

Whether it is long-distance interstellar travel or colonization of exoplanets, a strong spiritual base undoubtedly has more advantages and adaptability than a fragile carbon base.

Could it be that--

Will there really be a "Servant Universe" in the future?
