CHAPTER 434: CHAPTER 433: DOUBLE-LAYER GALAXY

In the vast Universe.

Constant Star Lu Chen was continuously plundering and absorbing Constant Star Zi Yang while paying attention to the biological characteristics intelligence of the Wa Star People.

When he learned that Wa Star People were a civilization where men could become pregnant and had a very special internal body structure, Constant Star Lu Chen was quite surprised. Despite wandering the Universe for over several billion years and encountering countless biological civilizations, he had never encountered a civilization where men could get pregnant.

This really reinterpreted the vastness of the Universe, where nothing is impossible.

It also strengthened Constant Star Lu Chen’s determination to continue exploring the Universe. After all, one cannot truly envision the entirety of the Universe without traversing it completely. As the ancients said, it is better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.

So, Constant Star Lu Chen’s current mission was to plunder and absorb Constant Star Zi Yang as quickly as possible and to lead the Wandering Star System forward once again. However, Constant Star Zi Yang’s Constant Star Mass was nine million units, and it was not something that could be absorbed in an instant. With Constant Star Lu Chen’s current speed of absorbing about ten Constant Star Mass units per hour, one could imagine how long it would take to absorb nine million units. Even though Constant Star Zi Yang’s mass and thus its gravity would decrease over time, allowing Constant Star Lu Chen to speed up the plunder, even so, it would still be a significant amount of time.

Now,

the Wandering Star System and the Wa Star System had overlapped.

The Wandering Star System was located directly above the Wa Star System, a hundred astronomical units away.

From a cosmic perspective, it was like a magical dual-layer star system. The distance between the two was only a hundred astronomical units, but they were moving at their own stable rates. Although a weak gravitational interaction had formed between the two, because the Central Constant Star controlled everything, the two star systems did not significantly affect each other.

And this had created one of the Universe’s great wonders—a dual-layer star system!

A dual-layer star system was basically impossible to exist naturally in the Universe, and no one had ever observed one, for the gravity between them would inevitably pull the two together, eventually merging into one star system.

Therefore, one could imagine the same destiny for the Wandering Star System and the Wa Star System.

The result was indeed as expected, as the spectacle of the dual-layer star system began to slowly disintegrate after a period.

This was because as Constant Star Lu Chen plundered the mass of Constant Star Zi Yang to a critical point, about when only one million units of Constant Star Mass were left, this gravity could not maintain the stable movement of the vast Wa Star System. Starting from the very central Constant Star Zi Yang, it was forcefully extracted by Constant Star Lu Chen and started rotating around him vertically. As the Central Constant Star disappeared, the original movement rules of the Wa Star System became completely ineffective, and all materials within the star system were bound by the greater mass and gravity of Constant Star Lu Chen in this space, starting to be absorbed into the Wandering Star System and becoming part of it.

This also marked the late stage of this absorption and plundering process.

At this time, Constant Star Lu Chen continued absorbing, and after completely absorbing the last million units of Constant Star Mass from Constant Star Zi Yang, the whole Wandering Star System slowly stabilized. The materials from the devoured Wa Star System, under the strong gravity of Constant Star Lu Chen, stayed obediently within the Heliosphere, revolving around the central star.

After absorbing about five million units of Constant Star Mass from the Wa Star System, the mass of the Wandering Star System increased to eleven million units, becoming the only star system under the vast starry sky.

Now, the Wandering Star System stretched across the celestial sphere, majestic as it stood, with a diameter of forty light-years and a thickness of nearly half a light-year, and it was considered a giant, or Wuba, in the Universe. Under the gravity of the Central Constant Star, a large amount of Solar Sphere Material was rotating at high speed, and inside the rotating sphere, the material due to absorbing a large amount of light emitted by Constant Star Lu Chen, gradually formed a dazzling band of light, very beautiful. In addition, due to the massive addition of material, the density of the Heliosphere of the Wandering Star System increased by about a third, and the friction between matter, gas, and particles grew more frequent, leading to frequent lightning.

Therefore, from a cosmic perspective, the Wandering Star System appeared to be divided in two by the belt of light, with the inner part bathed in light and warmth, and the outside teeming with lightning!

To control a star system with a Constant Star Mass of eleven million units, the mass of Central Constant Star Lu Chen certainly couldn’t be meager. If it had remained at the original seven million units, it certainly wouldn’t have been able to control a star system with a mass far exceeding his own. Fortunately, after absorbing Constant Star Zi Yang, he received a supplement of nine million units of Constant Star Mass, bringing Lu Chen’s Constant Star Mass to sixteen million, officially breaking through the ten-million-unit mark.

Now, Constant Star Lu Chen’s diameter was 2.5 astronomical units, an increase of 0.9 astronomical units from the previous 1.6.

Moreover, with the huge increase in physical mass, the nuclear fusion reaction area of Constant Star Lu Chen also nearly doubled. In order to counteract the greater gravitational collapse, the core’s Nuclear Fusion Rate also probably doubled, constantly emitting more light and heat, illuminating the entire Orbit Zone of the Wandering Star System like a bright, magnificent furnace.

Of course, with the increase in the core’s nuclear fusion rate, the temperature of Constant Star Lu Chen also rose significantly.

At this moment, his core temperature had reached 4 billion degrees, and the temperature of the corona layer had reached 130 million degrees.

However, his Hydrogen Element percentage had slightly declined, dropping to 93 percent. This was because Constant Star Zi Yang itself was also a large mass star, with a high Constant Star Mass of nine million units, and the constant nuclear fusion reactions every moment produced other elements. After so many years, it naturally accumulated a lot of non-Hydrogen Element materials. When Constant Star Lu Chen absorbed Constant Star Zi Yang, he did not differentiate, so those non-Hydrogen Element materials naturally transferred to Constant Star Lu Chen’s body. Coupled with the non-Hydrogen Element materials produced by Lu Chen’s own nuclear fusion, this caused the hydrogen percentage to decline.

"Demon Star, now that your Constant Star Mass has reached sixteen million units, I’m afraid our Orbital Zone will have to move outward again!"

Right after Constant Star Lu Chen finished absorbing Constant Star Zi Yang and stabilized the operation of the Wandering Star System, Green Star flew into the Wandering Star System and sent a message of consciousness.

Because the previous plunder and absorption were part of the merging process of the two star systems, not just star-to-star plunder, to prevent any accidents, all of the Battle Stars of the Wandering Alliance temporarily left the Wandering Star System. They waited for the Wandering Star System to stabilize before returning.

However, it was indeed as Green Star said, with Continuous Star Lu Chen’s massive increase in size and mass, the innermost Orbital Zone was already too close to Constant Star Lu Chen, receiving an excessive amount of heat, affecting the ecosystem of the entire Planet. To save the energy used for defense and to ensure the safety of biological life on the planet, Constant Star Lu Chen, following the calculations of scientists, expanded the Orbital Zone using the Constant Star Wind to double its size and moved each Planet’s orbit outward by one astronomical unit.

Once all matters were properly arranged, the Wandering Alliance set sail again, continuing its journey toward the Cosmic Center.
