The old man you see with your phone is highly suspicious.

Earth's consciousness remained silent for a long time, so long that Xue's Law wondered if he had said something wrong.

But in the end, He seemed to let out a human-like sigh and then said, "I originally intended to use them as another trump card."

Xue's Law: "?"

Soon, he understood what was happening. The Earth's consciousness produced a black sphere that looked as if it had been crushed into an incredibly smooth shape.

Just by getting close to the black sphere, Xue Luding felt himself being pulled by gravity. He had no doubt that once this thing was thrown out, it would immediately turn into a planetary explosion.

"What is this?" Xue Dinglu looked at the black ball with a puzzled expression, and he suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Recently, while creating a parallel world, I obtained a special core. It seems to be the shape of an entire divine tree that was twisted and compressed, and I sealed it back from the brink of collapse." The Earth consciousness seemed to casually utter something that Xue Law found remarkable.

"And that soul is extracted from this," Earth's consciousness added.

Xue's Law fell silent.

Now, seeing this black ball, Xue's Law gradually understands everything.

The 27th Squadron of the Starfleet, along with the divine tree that helped them push the black hole, were all swallowed, twisted, and squeezed by the black hole.

Even the divine tree, which was larger than Saturn, was gradually twisted and compressed inside the black hole, turning into the black sphere filled with distorted gravity that it is now.

All matter seemed to be distorted into its most primitive structure under this gravitational force, even the divine tree.

Seemingly knowing what Xue was thinking, Earth's consciousness answered before he even asked a question: "This is a meteorite obtained by accident from a parallel world. As soon as the seal is broken, it will immediately collapse into a black hole, so I don't know exactly what it is. However, I found a lot of souls on it, so I kept it. When needed, I can summon them out, or I can throw this core that is about to collapse into a black hole as a weapon."

"But if you need it now, take it." Earth's consciousness seemed to have no regrets, handing the collapsed black sphere to Xue Dinglu.

When Xue obtained this thing, even though it was sealed with a world-class seal, he felt his entire body being pulled by nearly ten times the gravitational pull.

This gravitational pull caused extreme discomfort to the body, and it's hard to imagine what the members of Squad 27 would feel if they actually had to face the gravity of a black hole.

He took a deep breath and said, "Thank you."

Xue's Law actually had a vague feeling that the Earth's consciousness's actions in creating parallel worlds were very similar to the situation of the Mimic King creating the inner world universe.

Perhaps, Earth's consciousness is actually an early form of a pseudo-king, which is why those souls wandering in the universe are gradually being led to Earth.

Just as Xue's Law once predicted, Earth is also among the strongest in terms of data in the world consciousness.

After all, it is extremely difficult for other planets to give birth to beings of level 5 or higher, while Earth has had a level 5 Zeus. In fact, not only Zeus, but Typhon, Cronus, Chaos and other monsters also had level 5 strength.

This is very unusual. In the world where the last theocracy was located, the entire world consciousness devoted all its efforts to nurturing a single fifth-order angel, Rachel.

Even though Rachel was only a Tier 5 native, and even after leaving the native territory, he was still only a Tier 5 in terms of rank, but his actual strength was only at the level of a quasi-Tier 5.

In contrast, Zeus in Greece was able to initiate the creation of the world, preparing to steal the power of the world and thus elevate himself to the sixth rank.

Even Zeus wasn't a guardian like Xue's Law, a being that relied on the world's resources; he was merely a native god who grew up on his own in that primitive era.

Zeus was able to become an apostle-level figure in the Council of the Mist simply by growing on his own. If he weren't the kind of person who excels in one area but has an infinitely large weakness as well, Zeus might have been able to steal the power of the world and bring everything back to himself, thus becoming the true one and only god.

This also means that Zeus's limits are definitely not just the limits of life native to Earth.

The true limit of life on Earth should be the level of Zeus, the only god after his ascension.

So, are there any other strange Tier 5 beings on Earth? Where did they all go?

Xue's Law couldn't figure it out, but he didn't dwell on it too much. The other strange fifth-order beings didn't jump out to cause trouble, probably because the Earth's will had killed their children without remorse, locked them in a dark room, or exiled them to outer space to stop their thinking, so they didn't cause too much of a stir.

Now he only needs to complete his own tasks.

He took the collapsing black sphere with him, and once again, he returned to the interstellar column's branch base.

This time, the moment he stepped into the interstellar column, it triggered an alarm throughout the entire base.

At this moment, a large number of team members came out. They looked at Xue Luding as if facing a formidable enemy, but not at Xue Luding, but at the black ball in his hand that was about to collapse.

This thing is terrifying. They would rather Xue's law had the core of the sun at tens of thousands of degrees Celsius than something like this that is about to collapse into a black hole.

"I'm bringing their last souls home," Xue Dinglu said, looking at Olivia, who was also rushing over from afar, "with the souls of everyone in the original 27th squad of the Starfleet."

……

After a flurry of activity, the fifth squadron's branch base finally received the black sphere.

Then Xue Dinglu arrived beside the body of the Evil Eye, marking the first time he successfully connected with the Mimic King.

The body of the Evil Eye is placed in this base so that it can connect with the mimicking King in the main base.

This time, Xue Dinglu saw not only the old man, but everyone in the 27th squad: the tall squad leader, the young couple who got married before the mission, the dwarf who was less than half a meter tall, and many other members with strange appearances from the barbaric era.

They all took off their hats and bowed to Xue Dinglu.

Xue Dinglu smiled and said goodbye to them.

This time, everyone gathered together, including the members of the 27th Squadron of the Interstellar Brigade who sacrificed themselves in the black hole. They, along with the divine tree, were twisted and collapsed by the black hole's gravity, forming a star core that resembled a black hole.

This is also why the Mimic King could not bring back their souls. Perhaps it was a coincidence, or perhaps it was intentional on the part of Earth, which created a parallel world. This collapsing star core was captured by Earth and eventually handed over to Xue's Law.

Now, Xue Dinglu has brought them home.

"Everyone get ready, this is the last time we'll take a group photo!" the squad leader said.

"Crack!"

A photograph captures this moment.

There were 58 people in total, including the old man from the beginning; not a single one was missing.

After taking the photos, they thanked Xue Dinglu, as if in their memory and consciousness, not millions of years had passed, but as if they had saved the world just yesterday.

"Let's all share our achievements. I lasted 87 minutes under gravity."

"I lasted 74 minutes."

"I...I dragged everyone down. We failed in just 14 minutes, which caused the formation to collapse...and killed everyone..."

"It's alright, it's alright. We weren't planning on coming back alive anyway. Besides, we've already succeeded, so that's enough."

"14 minutes is quite impressive, considering you're just a member of the logistics department."

“Let’s celebrate tonight. Anna, Lanoff, didn’t you two propose? We can’t prepare a wedding for you in the real world, so let’s prepare it here.”

Happy wedding!

A group of people, chatting and laughing, with their arms around each other's shoulders, boasting about their past achievements and discussing how to hold a grand wedding, disappeared into the end of the world created by the Mimic King.

All 58 people returned to their hometowns.

They disappeared into the distance, but in the end, Xue Lude saw old man Kleber stop in the distance with his daughter Anna and the young man and son-in-law Lanoff.

The girl threw an object.

Xue Dinglu took it and found that it was actually a candy.

He opened the outer paper; the candy was very sweet, and a family of three in the distance waved to him, as if to say that it was wedding candy delivered in advance.

Xue Dinglu waved and said, "Happy wedding!"

The last three disappeared from sight, turning into countless specks of light.

……

After Xue Dinglu left the Mimic King, he smiled, feeling endless satisfaction and gratification.

Chewing on the candy in his mouth, it was so sweet it was almost cloying. It seemed he might not be able to get used to the food of other races.

This time, it was Olivia again who came, but she wasn't empty-handed; she was holding a Noble Phantasm.

"Xue's Law, this is the mimicry of the Earth's core, our gift of gratitude."

“This…” Xue Dinglu looked at the thing in his hand, at a loss.

“Since your homeworld is capable of creating parallel worlds, it must have already begun to evolve towards the King level. We will not let any ally suffer losses. We understand why your world consciousness left behind this collapsing star core before. So take this gift back. By the way, tell your homeworld that as long as you walk the same path, the Starfleet will always be your ally,” Senior Olivia said.

At this point, Xue's Law has no choice but to take over the "mimicry of the Earth's core".

Even the panel left by the Great Sage couldn't decipher this thing. It seems it wasn't for him, but for Mother Earth.

"I'll leave it to my mom to decide," Xue thought to himself.

"By the way, Xiao Xue Law, I have some inside information. Headquarters is taking the lead in preparing to differentiate the ability of the Mimic King and establish a 'Mutual Help World Chat Group'. It is still in the planning stage. It is planned to include all the world consciousnesses that are connected with the Starship Corps. This way, if an accident occurs, we can directly say something in the group instead of the current inefficient way of transmitting information."

Senior Olivia quietly approached and revealed the news that surprised Xue Dinglu.

"A world chat group?" Xue asked in confusion.

"Yes, most of it consists of world consciousness, but it's only in the planning stage for now. However, headquarters has already decided that as long as we further develop the cross-world transmission method, we might be able to complete it, and then the emergency communication device will become a thing of the past."

"Just say so in the group chat when the time comes, and a single arrow will bring forth a thousand troops!" the senior said, seemingly quite pleased.

Xue's Law: "..."

"Approximately, how long will it take?"

"I don't know, but the technical department at headquarters is working hard to overcome the problem and seems to have made some progress. You can tell your home planet's consciousness in advance and then see if you want to join."

Xue Dinglu nodded. He only needed to pass on the message to his mother, and he would make the rest of the decision.

However, Xue believes it shouldn't be that fast, since emergency communication devices can only achieve seamless interstellar transmission at such a high cost.

The Starfleet needs to continue developing a more mature transmission method based on this, which may be difficult and may even take a long time.

When thinking about seamless information transmission, Xue's Law suddenly thought of another organization.

The Mist Council!

The seamless information transmission method reminded Xue Law of the Mist Council, but that was not about directly transmitting information. Instead, it involved using some unknown means to directly pull a portion of consciousness into the council to achieve information transmission.

Could it be that……

Xue Lude thought of the Starfleet's headquarters in the Super Iron Curtain galaxy, where they were targeting the Ninth Apostle, and now this transmission plan was about to be established.

Could it be that the Ninth Apostle was killed by the Starfleet? Is that why they obtained this technology from him?

Xue's mind was racing.

He felt there must be some connection, but he wouldn't know if his guess was correct until the next parliamentary session.

At this moment, Xue Dinglu simply said, "I will join. As for my home planet, I will convey the message over there."

The senior smiled and waved to him, seemingly satisfied with the response.

……

Having left the interstellar column once again, Xue Law brought back the words of the mimicry of the Earth's core and the interstellar column as soon as he returned to Earth.
