Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic-Chapter 1078 - 543: Restart! Causality Engine! (Part 2)
"It seems not too badly damaged..."
Su Yu looked at the image of the causality engine on the map, feeling a touch of joy in his heart.
The Star Tower signal had scanned it completely, revealing the internal structure of the causality engine in great detail.
On the surface, the engine appeared to have no damage at all.
The internal components also seemed completely normal.
Only one component was damaged, but with Su Yu’s capabilities as a Mechanic, he should be able to repair it after some study.
Apparently, when this causality engine was damaged, the surrounding causal environment became deficient, causing time and space to stagnate, preventing further destruction.
This was actually a good thing.
"Let’s move out!"
After discovering the causality engine, Su Yu didn’t delay any longer and immediately set out toward the direction of the engine.
Boom!
In the direction of the causality engine, there were an overwhelming number of strange human faces. As Su Yu moved, he approached these faces.
Suddenly, a boundless fear roared through Su Yu’s heart.
And because of Su Yu’s actions, those strange faces immediately realized that Su Yu had found the engine.
So they stirred as well, crowding in front of Su Yu, amplifying the fear he felt a hundredfold.
But Su Yu forced himself to endure it, stepping forward step by step, slowly approaching the causality engine’s direction.
He moved extremely slowly because every step required conquering immense fear.
If he relaxed even slightly, the fear would control him, forcing him to flee.
Su Yu was three thousand four hundred kilometers from the causality engine, a distance he could normally cover in an instant.
But this journey took centuries—a terribly slow process.
A century later, he finally found himself beside the causality engine.
"Finally here..."
Su Yu exhaled deeply; the century of fear he endured nearly drove him mad. Yet he had finally arrived.
"Repair!"
With a thought, Su Yu prepared to repair the engine.
Throughout this century, he had repeatedly scanned the engine via the Star Tower signal.
He had researched its structure and principles extensively.
The operating principle of this causality engine was different from Su Yu’s Causality Generator, resembling Su Yu’s Creation Machine somewhat.
This causality engine also created a Little Universe internally.
However, this universe lacked time and space, containing only causality.
By exporting the causality from this "causal" universe, it radiated into the warship, establishing a normal causal environment.
And Su Yu was extremely familiar with the Creation Machine.
Despite the differences in the construction principles of the causality engine and Su Yu’s Creation Machine, the insights gained through comparison sufficed for Su Yu to repair the engine.
In fact, Su Yu even gained some inspiration for improving the Creation Machine and Causality Generator.
Su Yu’s power enveloped the causality engine. Soon, he would repair and restart it.
"I advise you not to."
However, just then, a voice suddenly sounded in Su Yu’s ear.
"Who are you? Why stop me from repairing it?"
Su Yu immediately became vigilant, scanning the surrounding strange faces, attempting to identify the source of the voice.
Simultaneously, he didn’t pause his actions, continuing to direct power towards the causality engine.
He wouldn’t heed the voice’s advice.
"I’m the intelligence of this warship. The warship has actually been destroyed, preserved only due to causal stasis."
"Once the causality engine is restarted, free of its stasis, it will immediately face annihilation," the voice continued.
Upon hearing this, Su Yu shook his head and said, "Destruction is none of my business."
"..."
The voice paused for a moment, seemingly not expecting Su Yu’s response.
A moment later, it continued, "You cannot do this!"
"This warship is a creation of the Human Empire, having endured the Radiant Emperor’s glorious blessing, carrying out an important mission outside the universe."
"As a human and possessors of the Star Tower signal, you must be a citizen of the Empire. According to Imperial law, you should protect this warship, not destroy it!"
Su Yu shook his head upon hearing this and said, "Imperial law doesn’t apply to me."
At that moment, his power had already penetrated the causality engine, beginning the repairs.
"You... rebellious!"
"This warship is marked with the Emperor’s power. If you destroy it, as soon as you return to the original Universe, the Emperor will discover your rebellion and execute you!"
The voice grew furious.
The silent faces became agitated, causing the fear in Su Yu’s heart to increase exponentially.
Su Yu experienced a hallucination, seeing himself executed by the Radiant Emperor.
Yet, Su Yu remained unfazed and said coldly, "Stop pretending; you’re not the warship’s intelligence! If the Radiant Emperor wants to kill someone, it’s you who’s first in line!"
The unexpected remark left the voice in silence.
The agitated faces also quieted down.
Su Yu continued, "I’ve been pondering why this warship ended up like this and what those faces signify."
"The clues are obvious. The fear emotions on those strange faces seemed very familiar, similar to something I’ve encountered before."
"That is... the residual fear after a universe’s death!"
"The fear of a universe, hence its overwhelming intensity!"
What Su Yu referred to was the fear carried by the Brutal Evil God. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
The fear from the Azure Universe’s death lingered on the Brutal Evil God.
Such fear from a universe would be unbearable even to a Fifth-Order Evil God, resulting in the Brutal Evil God’s fear of death.
The fear emotion on those strange faces bore significant resemblance to the Brutal Evil God’s!
"So, you are no warship intelligence but the remnant will after a universe’s death!"
"After the universe’s death, you hovered in this void, craving resurrection."
"Until one day, you encountered this warship. You eroded it, seized it, using this cosmic warship and all the humans on it as your new vessel!"
"However, your essence remains unchanged, already annihilated, only barely surviving by clinging to this void through causal stasis."
"When the causality engine is restarted, destruction awaits not this warship, but you!"
"You will face annihilation once out of causal stasis!"
Su Yu insisted decisively.
All he said was speculation, but he was confident it was essentially the truth!
With the Azure Universe, Qi Chen as precedence, and the fear on the Brutal Evil God for reference, Su Yu was confident in his judgment.
He spoke as he accelerated the repair of the causality engine.
Upon the revelation of its identity, the voice gave up pretending: "How could you know?"
"No! Stop!"
"I’ll kill you! Die! Die!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With its furious roar, those strange faces charged at Su Yu madly.
As soon as they reached a certain distance, they couldn’t withstand the power of the Causality Generator, exploding into a mist of gray.
That mist embodied a fear emotion, enveloping Su Yu.
Within moments, the fear Su Yu experienced multiplied beyond measure.
He was deluged with hallucinations, almost believing he was dead.
This was not entirely an illusion. If it continued, Su Yu might actually "die of fright."
The fear manifested by a universe upon its death was utterly terrifying.
The Brutal Evil God’s fear turned it into a coward, marked by extreme fear of death. Though shameful, it served as a form of protection.
Currently, Su Yu wasn’t being protected but attacked by this fear emotion, threatening to frighten him to death!
This method likely would cost the voice significantly, but it couldn’t care less in stopping Su Yu.
Just then, amid boundless fear, Su Yu suddenly smiled slightly:
"Too late!"
Buzz...
Before Su Yu, the causality engine vibrated slightly.
A strong causality radiation burst out from the engine.
It had been repaired, restarted successfully!
"Ah!"
All the strange faces cried out in agony simultaneously!
