Jupiter is called the Hunting Star for a reason.
Zhou Yi temporarily felt a bit listless, as if he had entered a calm, reflective mode.
The Night God appeared without notice and said, with a fan covering her mouth, "You're really hard to please. When the enemy is too strong, you find it troublesome; when you're too strong, you find it boring."
Zhou Yi: "..."
Although annoyed, he couldn't find a reason to refute her.
Perhaps humans are just such contradictory beings.
Desiring challenges, yet not wanting them to be so strong as to lead to despair.
Wanting to fight fiercely, yet wanting evenly matched opponents.
The wanting of both things is indeed a desire deep within humans.
He set aside his slightly disappointed feelings.
Zhou Yi immediately adjusted himself; after all, winning is winning.
It was enough to prove the correctness and success of his previous strategy.
Reviving the Cave People and taking Jupiter, this massive construct, indeed turned the tide of the war all at once, directly reversing the positions of strength between the two sides.
However, the easier and cleaner the win.
The more puzzled he became.
"Given such a vast disparity, why did the Heavenly People dare to first organize an attack on Jupiter? Aren't they afraid of death?"
"Chairman, the disparity is more than hundredfold."
Xiao Chongqing seriously corrected him, "53,000 String was the intensity in rotation mode, but just now, I switched to battle mode, activating all 4080 Star Anchors on Jupiter, fully opening the 12-dimensional space hole, stabilizing Jupiter at a level of 150 million Strings. In terms of energy intensity, it has reached a dimension-breaking level."
At this moment, Zhou Yi was already somewhat numb.
Jupiter, even in rotation, was already a peak the Heavenly People could not surpass.
Activating the battle mode was another level of existence.
Truly a numerical monster.
No wonder the Heavenly People were extremely wary of Jupiter yet could not breach it.
However, given such a vast gap, why did the Heavenly People still assault a fundamentally unwinnable Jupiter when it was clearly already activated?
"They were buying time for evacuation."
Xiao Chongqing blinked, "Star Anchor observations show that some Heavenly People around the Sun are transferring and escaping from this Star System."
"Jupiter's activation probably filled them with immense pressure and fear."
"Those Heavenly People who came were just stalling Jupiter, providing other individuals a chance to escape."
She waved her hand, displaying a cosmic landscape in the air.
Around the Sun, a fireball, streams of light could be seen sweeping across outside the solar corona.
Zhou Yi saw that the Heavenly People's withdrawal was very orderly, with a clear front and back. The first to leave were dimly glowing Gemstone Bodies, all old, weak, sick, and disabled.
But the strong, radiant Heavenly People at the rear did not leave immediately.
They rotated around the Gemstone Wall of the Sun, seemingly trying to embed themselves into this grand gemstone project, appearing to want to activate or dismantle the Ring Solar Wall?
Zhou Yi frowned, "What are they doing?"
Xiao Chongqing gave an "oh", "They're attempting to transport the Sun, wanting to take it away."
Damn!
There are thieves!
In anger, Zhou Yi said, "Stop them."
"Understood."
Xiao Chongqing raised her hand, and Jupiter's Eye emitted string-like witchcraft light, these purple lines pierced through many space holes and landed around the Sun.
In an instant, many Heavenly People's Gemstone Bodies were illuminated by beams of string light. They were like fireflies tied by red threads, unable to move, as if they were immobilized by a spell.
Zhou Yi stroked his chin.
Good.
Jupiter's strength is very high, Mr. Zhou is very pleased.
My continuous investment and development over the years paid off, clearing all prerequisites to unlock Jupiter.
"Chairman, a total of 3,402 Heavenly People have been captured, with 3,327 caught at the scene. There are 75 that went through the Space Hole, and they've also been marked by the String Light. It's just a matter of time before they are brought back. No matter how far they run or which dimension and space they enter, the String Light links them, and it won't be long before they are all brought back."
Xiao Chongqing spoke with a relaxed tone.
Zhou Yi couldn't help but ask, "The String Light used by Jupiter can directly locate each Heavenly Person?"
Xiao Chongqing nodded, "Hmm," she said, "because the Heavenly People, these Transformers, were originally created by Jupiter. The Intelligence Core of the Transformers has a special closed string, allowing real-time positioning. Therefore, given specific string light parameters, they can be locked in."
Zhou Yi thought to himself, no wonder.
The Heavenly People have been installed with a backdoor by the String Civilization; with Jupiter, they can be captured at any time.
Empathizing with them.
If he were a Heavenly Person, with a massive construct like Jupiter, always watching and locking onto him, leaving him nowhere to run, unable to struggle and break free, he'd likely feel the same pain and despair.
Zhou Yi looked at the immobilized Heavenly People in space, like insect specimens, with a complicated heart.
War ended surprisingly abruptly.
It felt like he hadn't even put in any effort before the opponent fell.
Xiao Fu, however, was extremely excited at this time, "We've taken it! We've taken it! Your judgment was right, Da Zhou! Although the Heavenly People looked invincible, their fatal flaws were obvious. Their information gathering and life domains were very weak, plus we have Jupiter, a specialized weapon against the Heavenly People!"
"We didn't even need to bring in external aid to take them down!"
"Let's start transforming them now!"
"These beings would be troublesome as enemies, but if they can be turned into productivity or integrated into the company system, they would become very powerful assistants!"
Zhou Yi suddenly understood.
Indeed.
Transforming the Heavenly People is the final goal.
For now, by using Jupiter's absolute strength, he suppressed all the Heavenly People in the Solar System.
After the fighting is done.
It's time for negotiations.
Zhou Yi asked Xiao Chongqing, "Contact the Heavenly People through String Light for me."
"Okay."
Xiao Chongqing closed her eyes for a moment and then opened them, "Alright. What you say now will be transmitted into every Heavenly Person's Gemstone Body. They will all hear it."
Zhou Yi paused and then said, "To all Transformers, I now represent the Wasteland Development Company and announce to you that your colonial era on Earth has ended."
"Send a representative over, the Wasteland Development Company will negotiate post-war arrangements with you."
Before long.
Zhou Yi heard a stern voice.
[We will not accept being enslaved again!]
[There's nothing to discuss.]
[You can destroy us now.]
Zhou Yi found it difficult to keep his composure.
Damn, you're acting all heroic and righteous.
"Chairman, they don't know what's good for them."
Xiao Chongqing said angrily, "Chairman, let's just finish them off."
"..."
Initially, Zhou Yi found this idea quite appealing.
Just eliminate them, problem solved.
But after a moment.
He calmed himself once more.
The Heavenly People have a natural vigilance and opposition to the String Civilization, and they are a significant assistant in the long-term blockade against the String Civilization.
Moreover, as planetary Transformers, they are essentially cosmic-level civil engineers. If their capabilities can be utilized in the right direction, it could significantly enhance the strength of Earth's civilization, shortening the time required for its development.
Transforming the enemy is not something that can be rushed; it must be done gradually and methodically.
Zhou Yi decided to let them stew for a while.
"By the way, Xiao Chongqing, were the Heavenly People that attacked Jupiter completely destroyed?"
"Yes, Chairman, they were dismantled through the 12-dimensional space hole, reverted to string form, and turned into a part of Jupiter's numerous strings. However, if needed, they can be reassembled."
Zhou Yi was taken aback, "They can be restored to their original form?"
"Yes."
Xiao Chongqing nodded, her Mahjong earrings swaying, "Jupiter is the Transformers' processing factory; they were originally assembled and are Assembly Life forms."
A flash of inspiration crossed Zhou Yi's mind, "We have the Intelligence Core now, we have Venus producing gemstones, and we have Jupiter, meaning we can produce Heavenly People ourselves?"
"Yes."
Zhou Yi was overjoyed.
Then it's not a problem anymore.
Xiao Chongqing asked, "Chairman, should we assemble new Heavenly People?"
Zhou Yi ordered, "Start the assembly now."
If you stubborn old-timers refuse transformation, we'll create a new generation of Heavenly People ourselves!
If you won't do it, plenty of others will!
