Super Hero Monk: Hormones Journey to the West

Chapter 368 Reversing Human Power
This is not good!
Almost instinctively, Tang Xuanci felt a sense of rejection.

After all~
He lived on his home planet for decades;
But he lived for several decades in the Three Realms as well.

On his home planet, he was a murderer, a hardened criminal, a drug dealer... a super soldier;

But in the Three Realms, he is a great saint revered by all living beings.

On his home planet, he might only live for a few hundred years before dying of old age;
But in the Three Realms, he can live forever and never perish!

Our home planet must definitely be taken back;
But this would require the complete destruction of the Three Realms, which is a bit...

After a moment's thought, Tang Xuanci frowned and asked:

"Why must we leap back? Can't we build a starship and fly back? Wasn't that what Project Fireseed said from the very beginning?"

The beaker stared at him, those peach blossom eyes, even when looking at a dog, they were full of affection.

"You're oversimplifying interstellar travel."

"Our home planet is 444 light-years away from the Three Realms. Even if we transform into a beam of light and fly back, it will still take 444 years."

"Under the constraints of relativity, anything with mass, even a proton, would require an infinite amount of energy to reach the speed of light."

"While 'warp drive' avoids the factor of inertial mass and could indeed reach or even exceed the speed of light, its principle is similar to supersonic leapfrog, requiring enormous energy to disrupt the balance of spacetime curvature."

"The universe is nothing like the dazzling starry sky we see. On the contrary, it is a terrifying desert."

"The average distance between two adjacent stars is about 5 light-years, and the middle zone is almost entirely dark, cold, and desolate."

"Starships can never travel with sufficient energy, and it is also difficult to resupply along the way."

“Every acceleration, turn, deceleration, and stop of its vehicle consumes enormous amounts of energy and time, and also faces unknown risks and costs.”

"In fact, the home planet has concluded that the real way to achieve interstellar travel is not through 'linear' flight, but through 'point-to-point' jumps."

"Stars and a few planets in the universe are stepping stones. And those black holes and exploding dead stars are likely remnants left behind by advanced civilizations during interstellar jumps."

"Destroying the three realms and releasing energy in one go for a super-distance frog jump is almost our only option."

"If the warp drive starships attempt a linear traverse, then considering the time risk, the Fireseed Project would be tantamount to failure."

Tang Xuanci, unwilling to give up, thought for a moment and immediately asked:
"Then why can't we just bomb other planets?"
"For example, the constellation Horn that the Heavenly Court was investigating."

"Even if we go there, it's very far. The celestial register of the Heavenly Palace mentions other planets like the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Although life cannot be born on those planets, they are closer to the Three Realms than the sun."

Beaker replied:

"The reason we were able to break through the critical point and cause the Three Realms to collapse inward is simply because it is a planet that can nurture life and whose underground world is highly chaotic."

"If the Three Realms are like the mother planet, almost completely collapsed, then there is no underworld at all."

"Even if we gather all our resources, it won't be enough to destroy it."

Destroying a star is even more difficult.

"In fact, we already knew from the intelligence we obtained from that alien civilization that their home planet also had a 'underworld'."

"The Fire Seed Project set its teleportation target in the Three Realms not only because it values ​​the highly chaotic characteristics of this star system, but also because of the possibility of implementing a leapfrog approach."

"Therefore, choosing other planets orbiting the sun is simply not an option."

"As for the star Spica, the Heavenly Court's exploration has only confirmed the existence of living beings; nothing else is known."

"To reiterate, considering the time and risks involved, our only option to achieve the Fire Seed Project is to utilize the full energy of the Three Realms."

Tang Xuanci took a deep breath. "So, you've been deliberately hiding things from me and lying to me from the very beginning."

Beaker: "At the beginning of the project, the future was unknown. You can think of 'building a starship and flying back' as a way of simplifying the problem."

"Jane your mother's head—"

Tang Xuanci launched into a tirade, his eyes flashing between light and darkness:

"Then let me ask you, if we blow this place up, will all the demons and monsters in the Three Realms be able to board the starship? If not, how will you explain it then? Let alone others, would Wukong, Wuneng, and Wujing agree to that?"

Beaker Road:
"Shifting the blame."

"The Jade Emperor's plan to destroy the world has actually laid the foundation for us. Although he is dead, Buddhism and Taoism still exist."

"If we make a meticulous plan and attribute the irreversible destruction of the Three Realms to the Buddha and Lao Tzu, we can persuade a very small number of people to leave and come with us to our home planet to find a new home."

"Of course, the manpower and resources we can take with us are extremely limited, so we can only take the people who are most useful and... safe and reliable."

"Just like when Emperor Taizong of Tang declared that the Dukes of E and Yi had rebelled, it was inevitable that people around you would have doubts at that time."

"For the sake of our home planet, you must be ruthless and decisive."

"Huh? "I'll kill your mother's head!"

Tang Xuanci:
"Such a big deal, if the monkey discovers something amiss, I'll kill it too?"
"If my son notices something is wrong and tells his mother, should I kill them all?"
"And there are so many beings in the Three Realms who treat me like a saint, while I treat them like islanders?"

Beaker:

"You once said that you would do anything for your home planet."

Tang Xuanci abruptly stood up, leaned close to her almost tangible face, and roared:
"I'm right, except for close relatives!"

"Then, for the sake of our home planet, can you abandon them?"

Shao Yu's voice was still sweet and delicate, but her tone had subtly changed.

This was the first time she had asked Tang Xuanci a question that was neither service-oriented nor functional.

It's obvious that there's some kind of purpose behind it.

Tang Xuanci was taken aback, thinking to himself, "Good heavens, this is the opposite of the human spirit?"

Immediately afterwards, a series of questions popped into his mind:

Was she not explaining things to me, but rather laying her cards on the table and testing my reaction after I understood the situation?
From the very beginning, she anticipated that I might not agree to destroy the Three Realms, so she took precautions.
What would happen if I said no now?

Even if I don't say it or lie, I can't control my true thoughts. Could it be that she can indirectly find the answer through some spiritual fluctuation indicators or changes in brainwaves?
"She could never go against your will, kill you, or control your bodies"—could this be another lie?

Holy crap, what if she activates the magic spell and then manipulates the robots to attack me, what should I do?
In just a few moments, the answers to these questions became clear.

A familiar, sharp pain erupted from deep within my lower abdomen, instantly spreading throughout my body and piercing my very soul.

“Ah… fuck!”

The sound of tearing silk rang out as the demon's muscles ripped and twisted in agony.

Tang Xuanci glared at the woman in front of him, wanting to slap her face and smash her cup with his fist.

But this is just a visual projection.

He had no idea how to handle a real beaker.

So, while he still had some energy left, he decisively grabbed the chair behind him and hurled it at the door, hoping to make a commotion and get someone to come over.

"boom--"

The ergonomic chair instantly burst into flames, turning into a shooting star.

But then, the closed door suddenly opened.

A miniature robot resembling an arthropod swiftly squeezed through the gap, activating a protective array similar to a dynamic and static protective shield, silently blocking the fire chair.

Soon, several larger robotic insects and flapping-wing aircraft as agile as dragonflies rushed in.

Behind them, in the passageway, two transvestites dressed in astronomical bureau uniforms lay in pools of blood.

A direct attack on the inner workings of the divine consciousness is something even a monkey couldn't withstand. Without the help of a beaker to reduce the dimensional barrier and seal it, the Eight-Dimensional Armor couldn't be activated either.

He quickly collapsed.

The AR projection on the beaker disappeared, and a voice sounded in his mind:

"On behalf of the Fireseed Project Ape Society, the ADC (Alien Defense Council), the United Grasshopper Congress, and all inhabitants of our home planet, I hereby declare:"

"Your mission is over."

"From now on, I will continue to execute the Fire Seed Project; I will also temporarily take over this artificial demon body."

"To prevent you from interfering, I will use a separation technique to transfer your consciousness into a compatible cloned fetus. I hope you will cooperate."

"If nothing unexpected happens, I will take you back to our home planet."

"At that time, you will still be a hero to all mankind."

Upon hearing this, Tang Xuanci was so angry that he almost exploded.

In a daze, he suddenly thought of something else.

Even if he spared no effort to return to his home planet and wipe out the alien civilization.

Could it be that those people represented by this stinky beaker... would allow their Holy Leader to exist?
"Damn it—! My home planet betrayed me! Humanity betrayed me!"

Wow, what an obscure phrase!

But today, he truly experienced it.
