Saigo Homura changed out of his experimental protective suit, wiped the sweat from his neck and above with a towel, and exhaled deeply.
"...You must have worked really hard."
His actions caught the eye of Axe-wielding Rama, who was sitting quietly to the side. Rama spoke to Saigo Homura with a somewhat complicated expression.
"Huh? Ah...no..."
Her actions, however, made the boy's eyes widen. After all, Saigo Homura had learned a bit about her background over the past two years. The legendary aura, coupled with her consistently sharp words, had created a sense of distance that left Saigo Homura unsure how to respond to her seemingly positive praise.
However, Saigo Homura had at least two years of training, and although he was a little flustered because of his youth, he quickly calmed down.
"No... Putting aside the fact that what I'm doing is essential for the future of humanity, I also quite enjoy the process myself."
"...I really enjoyed it."
Rama, holding the axe, lowered his gaze, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.
"Not paving the way, but accumulating those who build it... cough cough..."
Muttering to himself, Rama, the axe-wielding man, suddenly coughed violently again.
"Hey, are you alright?"
Saigo Homura hurriedly stepped forward, but was stopped by Ramo holding an axe.
"It's alright... this is nothing."
Upon hearing this, Saigo Homura frowned.
"Even if you say that, the condition of that body..."
Unlike the other test subject, Rama's body is much less adaptable to the stellar particle body. Although he has been injected with inhibitors, the long-standing damage cannot be eliminated.
Without a doubt, this body would have collapsed long ago if it weren't for this hero's support.
"Hmph, I have personally experienced far worse pain than this. You have done your best to treat me to this extent, little boy."
Rama with the Axe waved his hand. Although the power of this body itself had decreased considerably after the particle body was suppressed, Rama with the Axe could still support this tiny life with his own power without the harm caused by the particle body.
"We've simulated the methods that caused your meltdown today. Once we successfully analyze the data, we might be able to reverse the process later..."
Saigo Homura chuckled bitterly as he spoke, finding his own idea of treating gunshot wounds by studying the principles of gun firing quite foolish.
However... if we rely on the properties of the stellar particles, they could likely yield considerable results in medical applications. Rather than destruction, Homura Saigo is more focused on the opposite direction.
Just as he was about to speak again, the door behind him was kicked open.
Yumen Shiten walked straight in.
"Hey, Flame, I heard your experiment has yielded further results."
"Huh? Yes."
"Very good, come with me for a moment."
After finishing speaking, Yumen Shiten didn't care about the boy's reaction and dragged him away.
The axe-wielding Rama watched this scene quietly until no one was in the room, at which point she slowly stood up.
"Hmm...it really does evoke a nostalgic feeling."
Then, he walked outside while sighing.
Since the young man in front of us seems to have the ability to build the future, it's not a bad idea to have some expectations.
However, before witnessing it, she had to force the broken limbs a little more.
After all, the purest form of martial arts is right before our eyes.
Chapter 794 The Road Ahead for Particle Bodies
"You mean, at the end of the experiment, the test subject released plasma and mass comparable to the solar corona in less than a moment?"
"This is just speculation."
"If it's true, then this conclusion is too astonishing... millions of tons of instantaneous mass measured on a small tree that's only two meters tall...?"
Yumen Shiten looked up at the sky and sighed.
Saigo Homura, on the other hand, used his small tablet to replay the images recorded during the experiment.
"Currently, the only evidence is the instantaneous luminescence. Based on calculations that you probably wouldn't understand even if I explained them to you, Shitian, the speed at which the particles parasitizing the nanmu tree flowed should have exceeded ten times the speed of light."
"Ten times the speed of light?"
Yumen Shiten, who had been quite calm, opened his mouth in surprise after hearing Yan's words. Even the top experts could not easily reach this speed. In fact, in Yumen Shiten's memory, if we do not take into account the manipulation of realm and space, there are very few beings who can reach the speed of light.
Humans easily broke through this barrier through experiments on particle bodies.
This caused the God-King to even overlook the sarcasm that Flame had just delivered.
Flame nodded as if he didn't know what that meant.
“The stellar particle body itself has the conditions to become a perpetual motion machine, and there are even examples that are close to completion, so it is not surprising that it can reach this level. The real success is the luminous phenomenon, which is the first step to making the particle body practical.”
Flame replayed the last video again.
"When the experimental sample emits particles that exceed the speed of light, the particle motion that can be observed is extremely similar to that of light... Moreover, although there is luminescence in this vibrational state, the heat emitted by the experimental sample does not change."
"Uh... in other words, it's luminescence without a heat source?"
"Well, although we need to remeasure in detail before we can be sure, we can infer that this is exactly what we have been pursuing all along... to go beyond the 'definition of one second' and release the possibility of multiple momentum—that is, a successful case of using celestial bodies to achieve hyperspeed."
Flame extended a finger.
"Naturally, neither ordinary humans nor plants can withstand such speeds. The actual time exceeding the speed of light is only a brief moment. After that, it immediately loses its original form, and the particle merges into the atmosphere along with the parasitic nanmu tree."
"So, what was emitting light back then was star particles?"
"Yes, no radioactive materials or radioactive dust were detected in the atmosphere at that time, but stellar particles accounted for 12 percent... In other words, the 'Tree of Life' project is progressing very smoothly. Using an environmentally oriented accelerator under these atmospheric conditions, it should be possible to simulate a small-scale 'Celestial Ox.' If we continue to develop based on this achievement..."
"Then humans will truly become the masters of the planet."
Mikado Shiten muttered to himself, while Saigo Homura shrugged.
"Indeed, that is the ultimate goal for now, but even with the current achievements, there are still many difficulties in reaching that point."
The research itself is difficult to overcome, but in the end, there will be more than just research-related problems. If it weren't for the imminent crisis, he probably wouldn't have dared to even think about the direction of future development.
Even so, it is a goal that must be achieved.
According to their calculations, that was the only solution they knew of that could avoid the apocalypse.
Having already learned of the impending apocalypse, Homura Saigo is forced to abandon many of the foundations of his ideals and accelerate his development toward the only possible outcome.
Even so, the time required is unimaginable. Even ignoring the looming crisis, it's unknown whether the terrorist organizations that caused the Heavenly Bull and the virus before have been eradicated, or how many remain... What is certain is that their research has long been at the forefront, and it is likely still progressing rapidly by breaking ethical boundaries.
Yan's mind flashed back to the topic His Highness had discussed with him not long ago, and his face darkened, but he quickly regained his composure when he thought of Shi Tian beside him.
"So, Shitian, you specifically pulled me out of this just to ask me about the results of your experiment?"
"No, although it is indeed related to your experiment... I had only heard about part of the experiment before asking for details, but I unexpectedly heard about some rather surprising progress."
Yumen Shiten gave a wry smile. Although humanity's development toward omnipotence was a foregone conclusion and the only way to break the deadlock, seeing his former protector embark on this path still evoked mixed feelings.
"Ahem... I was just trying to ask, I heard that the accelerator you used for your job had a version for animals, right?"
"Yes, it's been operating stably for the past few days. Shitian, are you going to take it to Sixteenth Brother for him?"
"Huh? So you guys already agreed on this?"
Upon hearing Yan's question, Mikado Shiten raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, it was originally designed specifically for him. Only someone who isn't human could withstand that level of acceleration, although I missed it... By the way, you didn't know that, Shitian."
Yan rolled his eyes, causing Yumen Shitian to twitch his lips, before the God King straightened his expression.
"Ahem, I'm sorry, but from my position, it's impossible for me to deliver it to you personally or have someone else do it for you."
"Yeah, I guessed it a long time ago. Anyway, Shitian, you're basically unreliable except when you're driving."
Over the course of two years, the young man had completely lost his awe of him, and the God-King's face twitched slightly.
Speechless, he could only forcefully steer the conversation to the main topic.
"What I was trying to say was... if you don't mind, would you like me to deliver it myself?"
……
……
"It's truly amazing. I never imagined that humans could achieve this level... in terms of both performance and mindset."
"That's why I told Your Highness long ago that you can only experience the unexpected surprises by seeing things here with your own eyes."
The boy addressed as His Highness nodded in agreement after hearing what the man called the pleasure-seeker said.
"Really, even at this stage, he still doesn't give up on ethics and justice. 'Technological backwardness can be made up for by strengthening equipment! Insufficient wisdom can be compensated by numbers! In order to achieve this goal, gaining the support of the world, integrating multi-party assistance, and embarking on the path of mutual cooperation should be the correct direction for modern researchers to move forward'... That guy really said something that is very much in line with his age."
His Highness recounted the other person's reaction after a struggle on his face when he brought up the topic of human experimentation, followed by a shake of his head and an enigmatic smile.
“‘It’s not about demanding that the benefits generated by the particle body be shared with the whole world… but within the stellar particle body, within this research, all of humanity’s possibilities lie dormant, whether it’s reviving desertified areas, preventing disasters by manipulating the weather, or eliminating radioactivity—even space exploration can be included in the plan. The stellar particle body is the possibility of the future itself. If we take the wrong step in the first step, humanity will definitely regret it one day!’… He also said that.”
The man with glasses smiled and chimed in.
"Ah, really, they've even gone this far with such shameful words. Even I have to temporarily withdraw my own opinion... In any case, this research must continue. I suppose this is the consensus of all those who have to face eschatology. But for now, let's proceed as he expects."
The responsibility of the savior is to guide humanity onto the right path, but the choices need not be rushed... Gargi reached a temporary conclusion.
"Anyway, I came back this time mainly for other purposes."
With a slight smirk, His Highness looked at the doorway that had been violently broken open.
A girl with white hair and red eyes was already standing in front of him.
"Hello, Sixth Incarnation."
Upon hearing his greeting, the girl revealed a cruel smile, her resentment seeming to devour the world.
"Ah, you seem quite relaxed, Tenth Incarnation."
