Chapter 12 Upgrading the Divine Body (Part 2)
Chapter 12 Upgrading the Divine Body (Part 2)
Feeling his body temperature gradually increasing, Glenn had no idea how high his body temperature was, nor how much longer it would take for the divine body within him to complete its transformation.
His mind was completely muddled; he only had one thought in mind.
"Hot! Hot! So hot! It's so hot!"
The dehydration in his brain caused him to start having random thoughts.
"Why is there a string of lights ahead? Is it heaven?"
Are there angels in Heaven? Is there Keisha Heximei there?
"Oh! I'm still a virgin! What a pity!"
"I haven't met Liang Bing yet. Do you know if she can compare to Keisha?"
"Should we talk to Keisha and ask her to help me find the wings?"
"Oh no! What if she beats me to death? Maybe I should talk to He Xi? But forget it, she's even more ruthless."
"Ugh! Why is it so hot?! Did we fall into a star?"
"Where am I? How did I get here? Who is that damned old man?"
Completely illogical thoughts flashed through Glenn's mind, and his consciousness felt as if it were being burned, the intense heat filling his entire body.
Outside, the intense heat within his body finally burned away the black spacesuit, leaving Glenn's body completely exposed in space. In an instant, the internal pressure became completely unbalanced, and Glenn's body was constantly being squeezed. However, his invincible divine body ultimately proved effective, allowing him to withstand the pressure.
At this moment, Glenn completely lost consciousness, but the male core within his body continued to operate, and his cells were constantly adapting to the high temperature and space environment.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye, and the sudden change caused the expressions of everyone on the warship to change.
"Your Highness, what exactly happened with Glenn?"
Ruoning asked with some doubt.
Before Keisha could answer, He Xi spoke urgently and quickly:
"Something might have happened. Judging from his current state, he's clearly lost consciousness. Quick! Go and bring him back!"
Before He Xi could finish speaking, Keisha's agile movements had already steered the warship rapidly closer, and an anxious look inevitably appeared on her face.
At this moment, the male core within the body has reached a critical stage, the speed of the divine body's upgrade has reached 95%, and the absorption of stellar energy is approaching saturation.
The terrifyingly high temperature inside Glenn's unconscious body had reached over a thousand degrees Celsius. His black hair was burned away, and his normally smooth skin was dry and cracked, devoid of any moisture, having been completely evaporated.
Especially the cracked flesh beneath, which was emitting an eerie red glow, as if it were about to be ignited at any moment.
"Upgrade of divine body complete. Begins full-scale absorption of stellar energy. Absorption is expected to be completed in one minute. Please be prepared to evacuate at any time."
Just as the warship approached, Glenn's divine body finally completed its upgrade, reaching the second-generation divine body. Instantly, the chaotic dark energy of the dark plane directly participated in Glenn's body repair. Under the powerful regenerative ability of the second-generation body, Glenn's body gradually stabilized, and the raging heat of thousands of degrees lost its rampage under the incredible strength of the second-generation divine body.
Time passed quickly, and by the time Keisha arrived, Glenn's energy absorption was complete, and the absorption finally stopped.
"Stellar energy absorption complete. Energy channel shut down. Energy stabilization device cannot be shut down. Please evacuate this area immediately."
After issuing its warning, Xiongxin fell silent.
Glenn, who had already lost consciousness, was unaware of all this.
Before the warship even stopped, Keisha spread her wings and arrived at Glenn's location. Looking at Glenn's horrific state, Keisha was also somewhat shaken.
Just then, He Xi's voice reached Keisha's ears through a communication device.
"Keisha! Run! It's about to explode!"
Keisha was startled and quickly looked up, only to see that the device, which had been stable just moments before, now had multiple cracks, and a terrifying red light was seeping out from them.
Alarmed, Keisha picked up Glenn in her arms and turned back towards the warship without hesitation.
At this moment, He Xi, who had already turned the warship around, anxiously shouted an order as soon as Keisha entered the warship, before Keisha could even stand still:
"Activate the protective shield at full power, run the engine at full load, and move forward at full speed to get out of this area."
The immense force nearly caused the group of angels to lose their footing. The warship, operating at full speed, gradually moved away from the area. Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a dazzling white light appeared behind them. Everyone was startled and was about to turn around to see what was happening.
But He Xi gave the order with a hint of panic in her voice.
"Don't look back, hold on tight and prepare to withstand the impact."
She was told to grab the ship's hull next to her to secure herself, and all the angels did as she was told. Keisha used one hand to steady herself and the other to hold Glenn tightly in case he had an accident.
If Glenn hadn't been unconscious, he would have thanked God for giving him the opportunity to contact Keisha in this way; of course, it would have been even better if that tough armor hadn't been there.
The next moment, a terrifying shockwave crashed into the warship. The protective shield shook violently, as if it were about to shatter. Alarms blared all over the warship, and various systems were affected by the shockwave. The engine system was also completely damaged, and the warship lost all power.
However, propelled by the shockwave, the warship was still sent flying towards a baseball, and after a short while, it flew out of the shockwave's range.
It glided along without any power, as if it were a quiet ship drifting in this vast universe.
The tremors finally subsided, and the protective shield did not disappoint everyone's hopes, holding on for a while.
The remaining auxiliary engines gradually brought the wrecked warship to a stop, preventing it from drifting aimlessly in the starry sky.
The ship finally quieted down, with only the sounds of alarms and the gasps of relief from the survivors.
After a long silence, everyone calmed their shock, but then trouble followed one after another: the engine was completely damaged and the hull was also damaged in many places, making it impossible to continue sailing.
Looking at the endless black night sky outside the ship, they were all in despair. This meant that there were no planets around where they could stay. Even if they had the ability to travel through space, they could not travel very far with their current abilities.
For a time, the more than a thousand angels on board the ship could not accept this outcome. They were willing to die in battle, but they absolutely did not want to wait for death alone and helplessly.
Despair, confusion, helplessness, and anger churned deep within everyone's hearts. The female angels were alright; having been enslaved and bullied their entire lives, they were still able to accept it. But the male angels were finding it hard to bear. Some low curses rang out among the angels, discussions began to emerge, and complaints finally arose.
Ruoning couldn't stand the noise from some people and eventually got into an argument with them.
He Xi was also very helpless. No one wanted this to happen. Who could have predicted it? This was the first time she had been so close to the impact of a nuclear explosion. Now that Glenn was in that state, it was uncertain whether the plan could be completed. Sometimes He Xi would think about it.
"It would be better to just die like this! No need for so much toil, no need to think about how to awaken those ignorant people, no need to think about how to overthrow this corrupt dynasty and completely overthrow Hua Ye's rule. It would be good if everything were over."
So she didn't stop them in time; they needed to vent their emotions.
Keisha did not immediately stop the chaotic scene inside the warship. She simply carefully placed Glenn on a flat deck and casually picked up a piece of clothing from the side to cover Glenn's body, as a naked body was indeed not a good sight.
After doing all this, Keisha stood up and slowly walked in front of everyone. Amidst their puzzled expressions, Keisha gripped the longsword and forcefully pulled it out. Then, she gripped the hilt with both hands and thrust it towards the deck.
"Ding!"
A crisp, long metallic clang echoed throughout the space, and they were somewhat stunned as they watched Keisha's hands gripping the sword.
As she looked at the numerous angels who had successfully attracted attention, Keisha's deep, cold voice rang out.
"What? Stop arguing?"
Before the angels could respond, Keisha continued:
"I'm very disappointed!"
Keisha paused, looked around, and examined the faces of each angel.
Feeling Keisha's gaze directed at them, the angels involuntarily lowered their barking heads, deliberately avoiding her gaze.
The look of disappointment on their faces was like a sword piercing their hearts, cold and piercing, gradually calming their turbulent emotions.
Seeing that the angels had calmed down, Keisha spoke again.
“Each of you has gathered together with lofty ambitions. Each of you is a future hero, a legend for future generations. I was very pleased to have such a group of people by our side. I believe that Hua Ye’s Heavenly Palace order will eventually be overthrown, and you… will live the life you want!”
Keisha stopped speaking and looked at them. He Xi had also appeared next to Keisha at some point.
For a moment, the air seemed to freeze, and there was complete silence. They were still deeply immersed in the fantasy that Keisha had created for them.
Looking at them, Keisha gave a cold snort, startling them awake.
Looking at Keisha and Hexi with lost and bewildered eyes, they couldn't understand why Keisha would say these things. Their ultimate goal was the same. They had been enslaved and tortured, without freedom or dignity. They desperately wanted to overthrow this, but they were powerless to do so. However, with the arrival of Keisha and Hexi, they got what they wanted. Only then did they realize that they were wrong and had forgotten their vows.
