Chapter 981

In the following decades, Medusa and Shi Ji had already begun researching how to integrate new bloodlines. While they were still discussing it here, their main bodies in the Cosmic Garden had already started experimenting and had even succeeded.

At this very moment, Xu Zhi looked at Shi Ji, who had acquired a new skin, and his expression was slightly strange.

How should he describe it?

Black and white, twisted and alternating skin?

From a microscopic perspective, every originally black iron-based particle had now become a black and white swirling sphere, resembling a Tai Chi symbol. However, from a macroscopic level, countless Tai Chi particle cells had transformed her into a wondrous gray hue, emitting a faint, twisted luminescence, making her appear more vibrant than her original dark iron color.

"My defense has significantly improved," the young girl said excitedly. "And at the same time, I've gained... a miraculous creation ability!"

She opened her mouth slightly and exhaled. Like blowing bubblegum, with a whoosh, she blew out a gray, filamentous iron-porcelain creature and was instantly captivated, playing with it eagerly, her eyes sparkling brightly. "This is so much fun!"

"Wait, I have another feeling—quantum entanglement!"

Shi Ji exclaimed, utterly surprised: "That's right! This offspring I created can quantum entangle with me, and it's a very fast kind... After all, it originated from a part of my own body."

Medusa was also slightly surprised and chuckled, "Indeed! This gene also pairs well with the quantum gene... Now, there's no need to worry about losing quantum battle bodies anymore!"

After all, Medusa knew clearly how severe the loss was each time a quantum battle body was destroyed! It wasn't just a matter of resources, but also because pulling a new quantum battle body into existence through entanglement was a very lengthy process. The stronger one was, the harder it was to pull a quantum battle body into reality. Even for the Martial Alliance Leader, Demon Lord, Zhou Meng, and You, losing a quantum battle body once was extremely painful. It would take at least three to four years to fully recover.

As for Shi Ji? There was no need to worry at all. As long as resources were sufficient, another one could quickly reappear.

"Does the 'Whole Race Gene' actually have this kind of synergy?" Xu Zhi, who was watching TV nearby, turned his head to look at their research, feeling it was quite miraculous. With the Quantum Gene and the Whole Race Gene combined, there was no cooldown for quantum battle body resurrection.

This was the terrifying potential of perfectly combining various genetic bloodlines. It was never as simple as one plus one, and heaven-defying characteristics could emerge unexpectedly.

What? You say the combat power is unbalanced? Combat power was inherently vastly different, with infinite possibilities. Even with the 'Whole Race Cell' and the 'Iron-Based Cell', the superposition of these two major genes resulted in a geometric increase in defensive power, rather than a simple additive effect. This was also why those who only cultivated one or two genetic systems were considered weak!

"It seems these three genes complement each other quite perfectly," Rainier Mansga said with a smile.

"Of course!"

Shi Ji was very happy. "Sister Cthulhu's core gene, our core gene, and the enemy race's core gene... All three genes come from three powerful super-civilizations. Which one isn't a powerful ultimate system? They are the crystallization of countless years of civilization's labor!"

Xu Zhi smiled. It seemed little Shi Ji had also learned the benefits of covert learning. In reality, if Xu Zhi hadn't intervened secretly, how could the normal super-powerful civilizations in the true universe possibly be so openly sharing resources and knowledge? Learning from each other? Copying each other? Normal major cosmic civilizations would never have this kind of situation! Therefore, they were destined to be very weak. At most, their indigenous genes would be strong, but their second and third genes might not be very powerful at all!

While the two were sitting in the living room, researching this item, outside, a full fifty years of development time had passed, and the promised date with Caroline was gradually approaching. They were about to make contact with that mysterious, unknown civilization.

Of course, during these past fifty-plus years, new film and television entertainment programs had already been launched, and various new film and television series had appeared.

"Are we really making contact with a new civilization tomorrow?"

Shi Ji suddenly turned around, realizing, and muttered to herself, "Does that mean tonight's TV series is having its grand finale? Ah! It's already nine-thirty! It's started!" She quickly stopped cultivating, sat properly on the sofa chair, tuned to the channel, and the TV screen quickly began to show images.

"Like sunlight piercing through the night, dawn silently streaks across the horizon—"

After the opening theme song, the episode began. Several members of the Victory Team looked conflicted.

"Please, when I first saw Ultraman, I thought I had met God and that he could guide humanity to the right path. But it seems that's not the case. Later I realized Ultraman is both light and human."

"Captain!"

"So, Daigu, you have no obligation to face an enemy you absolutely cannot defeat. You understand, right?"

"Absolutely cannot defeat? I don't understand."

"Yeah, I don't know when, but I also stopped believing in destiny. We must win, as humans! Defeat Pillar God Ru Lai!"

The scene was moving. Shi Ji watched in silence, staring at the TV screen without blinking. As she watched the final decisive battle, she suddenly saw countless children slowly rise. Children from all over the world shimmered with hazy light and shadow, transforming into wisps, their eyes firm and solemn, their hands forming a cross-fighting stance, and with tearful, heartfelt roars:

"I am Tiga too!"

"I am Tiga too!"

Shi Ji's blood boiled as she watched, and she slowly stood up from the sofa, making the same precise and crisp cross-armed gesture, and declared earnestly, "I am Tiga too!"

Medusa scratched her head.

Xu Zhi: "..."

He felt a bit unsettled. This method of harvesting faith and incense was quite powerful.

Finally, after the TV series finale, an announcer appeared at the end. "Ultraman Tiga, the savior from the end of the last historical epoch, and the story of his resistance against Pillar God Ru Lai, concludes here... Next, we will begin a new prehistoric cosmic story—Super Saiyan. As you have also seen, the Super Saiyan God once resisted the Dark Pillar God Ru Lai. In fact, the method by which the children eventually turned into light and lent their power to Ultraman Tiga was actually the Super Saiyan race's Spirit Bomb..."

Spirit Bomb? Shi Ji felt a bit puzzled upon hearing this.

Xu Zhi also looked strange, thinking, 'You're targeting the Three Pillar Gods again?' How exactly did they offend you? Even Xu Zhi felt that the Three Pillar Gods were truly miserable. But speaking of the Three Pillar Gods, they had been hunting down Pillar God Ji for quite some time now...

The announcer continued: "We will be telling their epic ancient stories, the Earth Dragon Ball saga, featuring the magical wish-granting Dragon God!"

Wishing!

Dragon God!

Shi Ji's eyes immediately lit up with longing. "What kind of system is this? It's too amazing, isn't it? The power to grant wishes..." It seemed this prehistoric micro-universe world still had profound foundations. Ultraman Tiga, Super Saiyan—they still had many epic historical and mythological tales.

"However, the story of 'Dragon Ball' will be postponed for a period. Our TV station will begin broadcasting and preparing for war starting tomorrow. Tomorrow, we will fully broadcast a new wartime program."

"Please rest assured, everyone, we will serve as the vanguard to explore in advance for you all!"

*Click.*

The program ended.

Shi Ji, still wanting more, went to the TV's forum and posted, "I told you Lina would end up with Daigu!"

The future Little Empress Dongqing: "Nonsense, she ended up with the Captain!"

Lord of the Little Demon Dragon: "Ridiculous, you're all discussing such strange things. Are you little brats my future rivals? It seems I'll unite the world and surpass my father's achievements after inheriting his position! I've already been researching Ultraman's abilities and his transformation device."

Screenshot, an image was uploaded. It showed a small pixelated demon dragon holding a transformation device, raised high, and performing Ultraman's transformation pose. "After watching the entire ancient history, I finally discovered a secret: the light of righteousness! Only children who firmly believe in justice can defeat evil!"

"Defeat evil? If you say that, do you believe your dad will beat you to death?" Little Empress Dongqing scoffed, "At your age, you're bearing weight you shouldn't be."

Lord of the Little Demon Dragon: "How could my dad hit me? But speaking of what someone his age should bear... when my brother and I were watching this part just now, I was moved to tears, while my brother sat indifferently on the sofa next to me. I immediately used the Ultraman Ray with my cross-armed gesture and made him cry. I think that's what he should bear at his age."

This fan culture had already taken shape. Discussion, worship, and longing generated a massive amount of wish power, enough to cover the heavens and earth. And these wishes came from various gods and their divine offspring... One could imagine the immense quantity and quality.

"Enough discussion, it's time to practice martial arts," Medusa called out.

"Oh! Coming right away!" Shi Ji was still animatedly discussing on the forum.

Early the next morning, it finally began. The entire population watched intently. The entire Tower World grew solemn.

The first image to appear was a gradually expanding planet.

"What we are seeing now is that the enemy civilization is very likely hidden in the nearby void. And here is an extremely ordinary life planet... Presumably, that civilization is connected to this one. To prevent any unforeseen incidents, our TV station will officially begin the exploration!"
