The "Space Confinement Treasure" can even immobilize the rules of space, let alone electromagnetic signals. Therefore, the alert information about Captain Crab’s battery being blasted could not be transmitted out. After Lu Heng dealt with Captain Crab, he extracted the consciousness storage unit from his Mechanical Core and then smashed the battery. Once the fleet’s flagship captain was dealt with, the remaining tasks became straightforward. Lu Heng carried the consciousness black box of the Xavier Matrix and infiltrated the Central System of the Star Navigation Base. The Central System of the Star Navigation Base is located at the base’s central highest lighthouse bottom. Upon entering the Central System machine room, Lu Heng broke open the shell of the Central System with a sword and connected the consciousness black box of the Xavier Matrix into the Central System. The rest was up to Xavier Matrix. Xavier Matrix took three minutes to successfully take control of the Central System. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽 Xavier Matrix’s image appeared on the screen, saying, "Successfully controlled the Central System. Next is the alert system, and it will take one minute. "During this one minute, as long as no alert is sent out, this operation will be successful. "If the alert system gets triggered, you must immediately take my black box and leave, retreat to Planet M2." Lu Heng nodded in agreement and began to wait. Time passed second by second. After one minute, Xavier Matrix’s image reappeared on the main control screen: "Alert system takeover complete, operation successful, thanks for your help. I can complete the following tasks independently." Lu Heng handed over Captain Crab’s consciousness storage unit, saying: "This is Captain Crab’s consciousness storage unit. I’ll leave it to you." The wall of the Central System machine room opened, and a tracked maintenance machine emerged, extending its mechanical arm to grasp Captain Crab’s consciousness unit, placing it into a device for processing. Lu Heng was unsure of what Xavier Matrix intended to do with Captain Crab’s consciousness unit, but with his capability, since he claimed he could do it, there naturally wouldn’t be any problem. Once Xavier Matrix had taken over the entire Star Navigation Base, Lu Heng discussed the second objective of this journey with him: "This time I’ve come, there’s one more matter, which requires your assistance." "The Zero Civilization has lost something called Reincarnation Source Material. There are four suspected targets, besides humans, also the Sikes Civilization, Bloodline Demon, and Shadow Demon." Lu Heng briefly explained the matter. After gaining control of the Central System at the Star Navigation Base, Xavier Matrix’s computational power greatly improved, shortening the time required for thinking significantly. "You hope I can help you find the Reincarnation Source Material?" "Yes. However, the Reincarnation Source Material is not necessarily in the Sikes World, but investigation is still needed, at least to confirm it isn’t here." Xavier Matrix: "I can help, but now the Star Navigation Base is the starting point for rebuilding my forces. Directly using the base’s radiation area to investigate for you holds a significant chance of drawing military suspicion. "Therefore, I hope you assist in finding Yeliana Sikes, to have her help in registering a company and acquiring an information security company. "Through this company, I can help you survey the entire Capital Star Circle." Now that Xavier Matrix has seized the most crucial military base, he can gradually progress, but to expand externally, the base must develop to a certain degree before progressively extending the Strength outward. And the quickest method indeed is to acquire an information security company. This matter isn’t difficult to handle, Lu Heng agreed: "Alright, I’ll go see Yeliana Sikes tomorrow." The Capital Star of the Sikes Civilization, the Gaseous Street. Lu Heng rang the doorbell at Yeliana Sikes’s residence and was led by the electronic butler to the sitting room. After waiting a few minutes, Yeliana Sikes emerged, warmly greeting: "Welcome, friend from the Human World." Yeliana Sikes looked the same as last time, using artificial skin, hence appearing in the traditional Sikes form. After undergoing a mechanical revolution, the Sikes Civilization also went through a civilization renaissance. This made the true Sikes aristocrats appear as organic life forms, whereas citizens with steel limbs engaged in heavy labor duties appear as lower-ranking units. Lu Heng also smiled and greeted: "Miss Yeliana has garnered more support." Yeliana Sikes sighed: "Actually, the rise in support isn’t a good thing for the civilization." The words she spoke were indeed true. Because she is the faction leader of the "Escape Faction." "Escape Faction" is a colloquial term, tinged with sarcasm. The precise name of the Escape Faction is the "Civilization Continuation Plan" of the Sikes Civilization. The ideology of this faction is straightforward, believing that the Abyss is unbeatable, and for civilization to continue, it can only choose to abandon the home star system. The reason for the rise in support for the Escape Faction is quite simple, it is because the Second Gaia Star erupted in a Mechanical Demon crisis, turning the entire planet into rubble. This crisis indirectly substantiated the terrors of the Abyss, making more Sikes citizens acknowledge the impossibility of war with the Abyss, ultimately choosing to support the Escape Faction. Now the Escape Faction’s support has climbed to 15%, more than doubling compared to the former highest support of 7%. Due to the rise in support for the Escape Faction, Yeliana Sikes, as the faction leader, naturally gained more power.
