Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

The battle of geniuses has ended.

However, the high and mighty Nine Swords Venerable and the 1008 powerful immortals left directly, while the 1000 geniuses present remained here.

A staff member called out, "Please don't leave yet. There are some things we need to discuss with you regarding taking you to the headquarters of my Virtual Universe Company."

After a while.

Jiang Chen and 1000 others sat in the conference room on the second floor of Restaurant No. 2 in the Central Plaza.

"Let me introduce myself, my name is Mana." A man who was about 2.67 meters tall and had a smile on his face stood at the front of the conference room and began to speak.

"Because my Virtual Universe Company will be arranging spaceships to pick you up, please write down the accurate planet address on the paper in front of you so that we can pick you up."

Jiang Chen picked up the paper and pen in front of him and began to write: "Qianwu Universe Kingdom, Black Dragon Mountain Star Region, Milky Way Galaxy, Ice Iron Star".

Luo Feng, also filled in the same region.

Some people, however, asked in confusion, "Why don't you just tell us the assembly point, time, and location, and we can get there ourselves in a spaceship?"

"Yeah, isn't it too much trouble to answer them one by one?"

On stage, Mana smiled and said, "Because the journey traverses many cosmic nations, it is extremely distant, and many civilian spaceships are slow in the 'dark universe,' so reaching our company's global headquarters would be very difficult."

It will take a very, very long time.

"To save everyone's time, our Virtual Universe Company will naturally arrange for the best spaceship to pick us up!"

"Of the 1000 people present here today, the one furthest away from our Virtual Universe Company's headquarters is about 15 billion light-years away."

"The distance between the dark universe and the original universe is 1:10,081,000 times. Even if you travel at the speed of light in the dark universe, it would take about 150 years to reach the original universe."

The geniuses in the audience, including Luo Feng, were all shocked.

People like Jiang Chen, who knew the location of the Virtual Universe Company, were fine, but most people were still frightened when they heard that it would take 150 years just for the spaceship to move forward.

The universe is so vast. When Jiang Chen traveled from Earth to Lice Dragon Star, which was only a cosmic journey within the Black Dragon Mountain star system, it took him ten days to half a month.

This is just a star field; above the star field, there are even larger "star regions," each of which is incredibly vast.

Traveling between star sectors can cause ordinary humans pain.

"If everyone wants to travel on their own spaceship."

"1. It's slow and takes too long." "2. The energy consumed by the spaceship during the extremely long journey is astonishing."

"3. The most important point is that flying in the dark universe is not safe in some special areas, as there may be space pirates."

Mana smiled as he spoke from the stage.

The C-class Black Dragon spaceship has a maximum speed of 1.5 times the speed of light in the dark universe. Even at its maximum speed of 15 billion light-years, it would take 100 years to travel continuously in the dark universe.

Even Jiang Chen's E-class spaceship would take more than 30 years.

"beep!"

"Data collection complete."

Beams of colored light fell on the papers in front of each person, and then a screen appeared at the front of the conference hall, displaying a huge star map with some complex numbers and symbols next to it.

Namana looked at the 1000 people below the stage and smiled, "Everyone, the addresses you wrote down have all been recorded. Based on the different geographical locations of the 1000 of you and the resources of our spaceship, we have calculated the best pick-up and drop-off plan."

"Because of the varying distances, the speed at which the spaceships are deployed will also differ. We can guarantee that you will arrive at headquarters on the same day. The journey will take approximately three years."

Everyone present was a genius, experienced and had many opportunities, but they were still shocked to hear this number.

150 years can be shortened to 3 years.

Three years of travel in the dark universe, covering 15 billion light-years, means reaching 50 times the speed of light in the dark universe!

Even Jiang Chen's F-class spaceship cannot reach this speed.

Class C ships are generally a little over 1 times larger, and even Class E ships are only a few times larger, like the mechanical ships.

Its technological sophistication far surpasses that of human-made E-class spaceships.

However, the highest speed that the machine race's spaceships can reach in the dark universe is only close to 10 times the speed of light.

Because Virtual Universe Company represents a technological pinnacle for humanity!

Although Jiang Chen's F-class spaceship was not damaged, its internal technology was inferior to that of the Virtual Universe Company's spaceship.

In the entire universe, perhaps only the mechanical race, with its terrifying technology, can be considered a gathering place for intelligent life.

Only then can we surpass the technological level of Virtual Universe Company.

Of course, the virtual universe is special and cannot be achieved simply by having a high level of technology.

"My Virtual Universe Company has arranged F-class spaceships for everyone," Mana said with a smile on the stage.

Moreover, it's a special F-class spaceship belonging to my Virtual Universe Company, with internal technology far surpassing that of F-class spaceships from various cosmic nations.

Silence, stillness.

The geniuses in the audience were all dumbfounded.

Jiang Chen sighed inwardly, wishing he could get the Virtual Universe Company to upgrade his spaceship.

Unfortunately, while core members of the Virtual Universe Company receive a discount on upgrading their spaceships, Jiang Chen's current funds are not enough even to upgrade that E-class spaceship!

"Pervert!" Sitting to Luo Feng's right was none other than the prince of Manka Star.

Jiang Chen looked around and saw Bolan, who was not far from him, with lifeless eyes, as if he had been severely hurt by him.

Berlan had always been invincible in his universe, and even in the finals, in the ultimate showdown, he still believed he was invincible.

Indeed, this is the case. Even super geniuses like Luo Feng and Rong Jun would be instantly defeated by Bo Lan in his current form.

Berlan was always invincible, extremely proud, and even somewhat stubborn.

In the original work, Bolan was also proud and even arrogant, wanting to cultivate time and space at the same time, wasting a lot of his time. In the end, when Luo Feng surpassed him, Bolan truly woke up and went astray to the space lineage, and only then did he truly unleash his unparalleled talent as a super genius.

"I hope Berlan can wake up soon. There's no shortage of geniuses in this world."

A genius is just a genius, not a strong person. If you continue with that mindset, you might face another setback.

There is a risk of them falling.

"The sooner you realize this, the faster you'll progress, and that will make things even more exciting."

However, Jiang Chen's current strength is not too far behind Bo Lan's, and he only managed to win with difficulty when time was running out.

Jiang Chen himself also needs to improve quickly. His clone is already a realm master, so he can't just slowly drift along at the constant star level or the universe level.

"Faster, faster to reach the cosmic level, domain lord, world lord level. Only at the world lord level can one truly undergo a complete transformation."

"Moreover, becoming immortal is the real challenge."

Jiang Chen sighed inwardly and chatted with Luo Feng from time to time.

"Alright, just one more thing to let everyone know," Mana smiled on the stage, "the prize money for the top 1,000 in the Genius Battle is being distributed now. You can check your accounts when you get back later."

"As for now, everyone can disperse and go back. Our Virtual Universe Company will send a special letter later."

"Everyone, spend time with your family and friends, because soon you'll all have to leave your hometown for an extended period."

The lively conference room suddenly fell silent.

Jiang Chen's expression also became complicated.

The journey to the Virtual Universe Company alone takes three years, and the cultivation in Chaos City also takes a long time.

After all, the flow of time in Chaos City is different from that in the primordial universe.
