Although he was somewhat amazed at how complicated the situation in this universe was, overall, Shen Yu remained fairly optimistic.
After all, these enemies were different from the Heavenly Calamity in his and Martial Artist Shen Yu's world.
Ultimately, they were beings that could be communicated with.
As long as communication was possible, there was a chance.
Moreover, judging from the probabilities gained from the Gray Mist earlier, this newly emerged civilization might be formidable, but not to the point of making any confrontation utterly impossible.
At this moment, after Shen Yu spoke up, the other versions of Shen Yu did not object.
In the next moment, Gray Mist dissipated, and the four Shen Yus, radiating intense power, stepped forward and instantly appeared inside a warship.
This warship was the largest one in the entire fleet!
All four knew precisely what they had come to do, and did not bother to hide their energy.
The immense power triggered a relentless alarm sound almost immediately.
And the four Shen Yus also saw the lifeforms inside the fleet.
Structurally, these beings were very similar to humans, except that their skin was sky blue, they stood over three meters tall—massive by any measure—and wore devices resembling battle armor, though apparently without many artificial limb modifications.
However, faced with the sudden appearance of these four powerful figures inside their mothership, these intelligent lifeforms were visibly nervous; Shen Yu and the others could clearly sense their anxiety and fear.
Almost instantly, a wide variety of weapons were aimed at the four of them.
Shen Yu and the others even sensed powerful energy binding effects, as if attempting to contain the enormous energy surging within each of them.
Meanwhile, dozens of clearly high-ranking blue-skinned individuals quickly fled.
The reaction was nothing short of swift.
Unfortunately, Magic Power and True Power, though also forms of energy, are far more mysterious.
Especially after Magic Power reached the Fifth Stage.
Though somewhat affected at the moment, Shen Yu merely narrowed his eyes; with a touch of magic, he instantly broke through the constraints of this energy binding.
"Your technology cannot withstand us." Shen Yu even let his consciousness flood into the minds of everyone present in an instant.
He directly stripped every lifeform in the room of control over self-awareness—their bodies froze, their thoughts stalled, utterly immobilized.
Even if their technology was impressive, in this Interstellar Universe lacking Extraordinary Power, at the individual life level, they simply could not compare to the four Shen Yus.
From the moment Shen Yu and his counterparts arrived, the fate of these people was already sealed.
In a way, Shen Yu's treatment of them mirrored how the Void Spirit Race had once acted toward Human Civilization.
It was a complete crushing at the level of individual life—true invincibility!
The pity was, there were simply too few Shen Yus here; at this very moment, the other Cosmic Battleships had clearly received the alarm and were retreating rapidly.
If Shen Yu existed in greater numbers—enough to rival the Void Spirit Race in force—then not just this fleet; no matter how many civilizations this world had, none could hope to resist.
Still, right now, the four Shen Yus had no means to deal with the other retreating warships.
Their objective had been intimidation and intelligence gathering.
So the four Shen Yus, still radiating that immense power, slightly relaxed the mental restraints of one apparently leading individual.
This blue-skinned one, his mind restored for a moment, spoke their own language in tremendous shock: "We did not know; this Fourth-level Civilization is a subordinate of a higher civilization."
Just that single sentence already revealed a wealth of information.
Shen Yu immediately made a decision.
He directly used Gray Mist to extract every bit of information possible from the person's mind!
This was indeed a rare opportunity!
Human Civilization and the Void Spirit Race have been at war for so long—why do they still know so little about their enemy?
The problem isn't technological.
If technology falls short, Gray Mist bridges the gap.
The real issue is that the Void Spirit Race possesses powerful information transmission technology; those sent to the front lines hold minimal status—key intelligence is always partial, incomplete.
For civilizations dominant in information technology, there are simply too many ways to prevent intelligence from leaking.
So when Shen Yu realized this blue-skinned individual seemed to have significant information, he didn't hesitate for a second.
However, he quickly discovered that this blue-skinned one—or rather, the Interstellar Civilization they belonged to—were every bit as cautious about information leakage.
The instant he invaded with Gray Mist, Shen Yu sensed the person's consciousness constantly communicating with some far-off place via information technology.
Critical intel—all saved in the cloud.
If necessary, he could instantly retrieve vital data, or even upload his own consciousness and abandon this physical vessel!
For now, he had refrained only because the four Shen Yus' display of power had frightened him, making him believe they could block such an escape uplink.
"A real headache; their information technology is even stronger than the Void Spirit Race's!" Shen Yu once more marveled at the power of science.
Even without Extraordinary Power, sheer technology alone could pose immense trouble for a force as mighty as Shen Yu.
Nonetheless, even so, just the everyday knowledge stored in their minds was highly useful to the assembled Shen Yus at this moment.
