CHAPTER 349: CHAPTER 215: THE FUTURE GONG CHU OF NO. 2

Yes, Shen Shi spoke directly.

This was also one of the experiments.

He wanted to see to what extent the Primordial Energy Steel Seal could be trusted.

On the other hand, since he decided to take some risks in the number one future timeline, there was no need to be overly cautious at this level—if the Primordial Energy Steel Seal, which bears the imprint of absolute obedience, could not be completely trusted, then one must be even more careful in other worlds.

And after saying these words, Shen Shi was also watching Gong Chu’s reaction.

"Indeed." Gong Chu seemed quite approving, obviously understanding Shen Shi’s meaning, "The most important thing is the past, the second is the changeable future. As long as we are sure that we can’t influence these two points here, then we can be bolder... even so, sacrifices must have a meaningful purpose."

If not for the last sentence, Shen Shi might not have fully believed this statement. After all, without his orders, Gong Chu could speak insincerely in front of him.

However, with the last sentence, it actually made him trust a bit more.

"Rest assured." Shen Shi said calmly.

"..." Gong Chu seemed to hesitate for a moment, then asked, "Since you exist, then the hero..."

"Hehe." Shen Shi chuckled softly.

He knew that in the number one future timeline, the greatest idol for Gong Chu was the hero that existed in this timeline.

If he had the choice.

Gong Chu would absolutely choose to engrave obedience to Shen Li’s Primordial Energy Steel Seal, rather than him.

After all, in this future timeline, there is no Sage Saint Shen Shi, only the Father of Heroes.

"Only here do you have heroes." Despite his laughter, Shen Shi still gave a serious reply.

"... I understand." Gong Chu comprehended Shen Shi’s words.

To such an extent that people can perform high-intensity calculations in their brains no less than a high-energy computer, so many things can be understood with simple communication, which is especially apparent among Masters of Primordial Energy.

Seeing this, Shen Shi bypassed information about his identity and time.

He directly asked, "How is the current state of the battle?"

"Not very good." Gong Chu’s emotions and transmitted consciousness instantly turned serious, "Although for at least three hundred years, we will be on the absolute defensive side, the current situation makes it difficult to defend for such a long period. If nothing changes, around two hundred thirty-four years from now, Human Civilization will begin to collapse and defeat."

The so-called collapse and defeat refers to a massive loss in the foundation of the resistance forces.

For instance, if Gong Chu, the only Master of Primordial Energy, dies.

For instance, if humanity’s military industry suffers a severe blow.

Once such a situation occurs, the outcome of this war is already determined.

But Shen Shi’s brows furrowed.

"Why is this happening?" He asked, "We are the defenders, we even sent you such powerful Civilization-level Devices, and even numerous advanced warships and weapon devices."

It should be known that the comprehensive strength of Human Civilization in this world is many times stronger than the initial version of the number two future timeline.

Hundreds of billions of people, C9 Level Civilization Devices, already formed Star System Fortresses...

Even though their enemies are stronger, according to Shen Shi’s expectation, Human Civilization should be in a precarious but victorious situation.

"It’s precisely related to these weapons and equipment... The Daike Civilization suspects we have received support from other powerful civilizations." Gong Chu said.

"Isn’t this a normal phenomenon?" Shen Shi’s eyebrows remained furrowed, "The nature of this war is a conflict between C-level civilizations within the Mude System. Human Civilization, under the protection and support of the Mude System, has the right to seek assistance from other civilizations. Doesn’t the Daike Civilization also have allies from other C-level civilizations?"

It should be noted that the node at which the number one future timeline is located is when Human Civilization has already stepped into being a C-level Civilization before officially waging war with the Daike Civilization.

Why is this node so important?

Isn’t it precisely because wars among C-level civilizations receive equal support within the Mude System?

This is why Shen Shi can freely assist Human Civilization; under these circumstances, no one is qualified to force Human Civilization to hand over "secrets," and secrets of this magnitude won’t be spied on by B-level civilizations.

However, the next sentence from the Daike Civilization made Shen Shi somewhat enlightened.

"The Daike Civilization suspects that those supporting us are a B-level civilization and possibly from the Gus Land."

"Indeed, many of these devices were obtained from the Gus Land, but the Gus Land does not participate in internal wars of the Mude System; they only do trade... I understand, this level of support already exceeds the scope of trade." Shen Shi indeed realized.

The position of the Gus Land within the Mude System is quite awkward.

The reason it’s merely a "legend" and not brought to the forefront is that the existence of the Gus Land represents a certain "powerlessness" of the Mude System.

It is a powerful civilization that does not belong to the Mude System.

Even if there is no absolute evidence showing that Human Civilization received support from the Gus Land, mere suspicion is enough to cause Human Civilization to gain a certain degree of "hostility" within the Mude System.
