Chapter 46: Global Sensation, Unveiling the New Ally!

A single sentence brought a wave of cheers to the Northern Alliance command center.

All radars were scanning at full capacity, yet there was not a trace to be found.

Even the countless satellites that had locked onto this area discovered nothing at all.

This should have been the most normal phenomenon imaginable, but it was precisely for this reason that it attracted increasingly widespread attention.

It even caught the notice of the top echelons around the world.

After all, this was a cosmic warship!

Compared to the extraordinary martial arts, which remained difficult to comprehend for the time being, the existence of a cosmic warship was entirely different; every modern person could form a certain concept of it.

Not to mention that this was a cosmic warship equipped with antimatter weapons!

To put it bluntly without reservation, this single warship alone, if introduced to the past, could have completely triggered a massive upheaval in the entire human civilization, and might even have sparked a world war!

The happiest person, naturally, was Martial Arts Shen Yu.

This warship had been prepared exclusively for him.

"Where is it? I'll go take a look," Martial Arts Shen Yu asked directly.

"Let's wait until later," Interstellar Shen Yu said. His figure materialized directly beside Shen Yu through the gray fog space. "I've had it hidden in the clouds, and we can control it remotely. Coming over right now would only trigger even larger-scale chaos."

Such a small warship was also incapable of mass population evacuation.

Martial Arts Shen Yu reined in the anticipation surging in his heart.

He probably never could have imagined beforehand that even after transmigrating to a martial arts world, the day would come when he could actually own a cosmic warship.

Interstellar Shen Yu then looked at Shen Yu and said:

"On our side, we are also very interested in these worm-like monsters. Although their military value currently seems small, their research value is immense."

Yes, creatures capable of rapid expansion indeed held little military value for the warfare of the interstellar civilization.

However, being able to achieve a transition from inorganic to organic matter was an entirely different story.

Perhaps there would be a chance to bring about new breakthroughs in materials science, or even atomic science.

All in all, this further elevated Goddess Hope's assessment of the value of the human civilization on this side.

"That's good," Shen Yu nodded.

Where there is value, there is a demand for trade.

Right now, there was a high probability that the gray fog could be accumulated in advance, and the cosmic warship was already fully prepared. Several contingency plans had been made, and all that remained was to wait.

At this very moment, the events unfolding within this city had already spread far and wide.

Quite a few people were imitating the previous female reporter and broadcasting live streams.

Instantly, they captured the gaze of the entire world.

Coupled with the footage captured earlier in a nearby city showing the appearance of Interstellar Shen Yu, it sparked even more intense public discussions.

Shen Yu briefly checked in on the situation.

People easily connected the two events together.

When the Northern Alliance official issued an announcement confirming that a colossal creature was indeed coiled underground beneath Gerard City, a mere three thousand-plus meters away, it completely triggered a massive worldwide sensation!

"Six kilometers long, fifty-six meters thick—it could swallow a hundred-story building in a single gulp!"

"One roll and the city is finished!"

"Why was a monster of this scale only discovered once it reached right beneath the city?"

"God! This city is done for, millions of people are doomed."

"That cybernetic otherworldly ally must have come precisely for this. Is there really no way out?"

"What kind of way could there be? Didn't you hear what they said at the press conference? Even if it can be killed underground with technological weapons, at this distance, the nerve reflex of its torso alone is enough to utterly destroy the city!"

"Why did something like this have to happen to our world?!"

"I want to know where is safe right now?"

"..."

After filtering out the meaningless abuses and venting, Shen Yu found that the majority of people held a pessimistic attitude as to whether the arrival of Interstellar Shen Yu could save the city.

The situation was indeed despairing.

Especially after the Northern Alliance officials pointed out the danger of the "death roll."

With such physical dimensions and at such close proximity, without exaggeration, unless something could bind its entire body in an instant, there was virtually no hope of saving the city.

Even the slightest excessive movement would trigger a disaster far more terrifying than an magnitude 8 earthquake.

Of course, this was also largely related to the attitude of the Northern Alliance officials at the press conference.

They lacked confidence as well and dared not make any promises.

Naturally, they were unable to instill any faith in the people.

"At this distance, I can actually sense a vague presence," Martial Arts Shen Yu suddenly said from the side.

"Hmm?" Shen Yu immediately turned his head.

"This monster has no technique whatsoever to conceal its primordial spirit fluctuations; it is recklessly radiating fluctuations on the primordial spirit plane. This is actually a sign of it being unable to effectively control its physical body."

Rings of indistinct ripples began to emerge around Martial Arts Shen Yu, showing that he was actively circulating his cultivation technique.

He explained further: "Among martial arts masters who primarily focus on the physical body, what limits their martial arts cultivation is actually not the reinforcement of their physique, but whether their primordial spirit realm can keep up. I've been pondering why devouring humans allows this monster to accelerate and grow larger; if it were merely vital essence or life force, the life force of plants is actually no less than that of humans."

"Because of the quality of the primordial spirit?" In Shen Yu's mind, a flurry of knowledge suddenly surfaced.

The skill-sharing among the various Shen Yus was neither instantaneous nor absolute.

Only skills that had reached a certain standard could be shared, and it was a continuous process.

Take the languages of the various worlds, for example.

Only when one prepared to speak did the language surface in the mind.

It was akin to temporarily forgetting a once-possessed ability, only to instinctively recall it when the need arose.

Thus, Shen Yu understood.

Martial Arts Shen Yu was right. From the perspective of extraordinary martial arts, the smarter a person was, the higher the quality of their primordial spirit. And in the realm of the primordial spirit, quality was far more important than "quantity"!

The worm down below was clearly just stacking up quantity, and it relied on devouring humans to accumulate it at a much faster rate.

A martial arts master might truly have a substantial chance of subduing it!

"It's about time." Shen Yu glanced at the accumulated gray fog, pondered for a moment, and spoke directly into the command channel: "I'm going to fetch someone. You can publicly release the intelligence regarding the other ally to give the public some confidence, and simultaneously have the military make preparations. If we can successfully resolve the monster and ensure the city's core structure remains undamaged, we must quickly take control of the order within the city and prevent casualties from escalating."

With the disclosure of the intelligence, the chaos within the city was becoming increasingly pronounced.

Many people completely abandoned any thought of fleeing and gave in to wanton destruction driven by terror.

This would inevitably bring about heavy casualties.

Meanwhile, Shen Yu's words also instilled considerable confidence in everyone within the Northern Alliance command center.

At the same time, the figures of Shen Yu and Martial Arts Shen Yu vanished into the gray fog.

Before long, at the ongoing Northern Alliance press conference, the spokesperson suddenly received a note passed over by someone else.

After a brief glance, the spokesperson's eyes widened visibly, completely unable to contain his astonishment in front of the countless focused camera lenses.

This triggered a violent reaction among the media present!

"What did you see?"

"What is written on that paper?"

"Please tell us immediately, the whole world is watching!"

"Has the situation changed?"

"..."

Disregarding the order of the venue, all the media reporters scrambled to ask questions. A dense wall of chaotic noise erupted, and some even abandoned their seats, attempting to rush up onto the podium.

Countless people around the world watching the press conference through televisions and various screens also noticed the change and yearned instantly for an answer.

Everyone was captivated by the shift in the spokesperson's expression.

Curiosity welled up within their hearts, yet they scarcely dared to harbor hope.

Fortunately, the spokesperson quickly adjusted his emotions.

"Everyone, please calm down," she said to the crowd, her voice carrying a noticeable uplift. "We have just received the latest news: we have a new ally—that's right, an ally from a new world! Furthermore, that is a world possessing supernatural powers! The Northern Alliance has agreed to pay a reward to hire a powerful practitioner of supernatural powers from that world to attempt to save Gerard City!"
