Chapter 441 Dimensional Travel
After waiting in the lounge for a while, a leopard-like woman gracefully entered and invited Li Chenglong and Princess Nina to the main conference hall to attend a meeting and give their speeches. The two followed her for at least ten minutes before finally arriving at the place called the main conference hall.
As soon as Li Chenglong entered, he was astonished by the size of the conference hall. It resembled a huge basketball court, with rows of seats filled with people. Even the empty seats had screens erected on them, indicating that some people were participating in the meeting remotely.
In the center of the main conference hall, seats were arranged in a circle, with a podium in the middle. Leopard Girl led Nina and Li Chenglong to their seats and then left. A short while later, the tree-like Geddes arrived at the podium and began his speech. Li Chenglong was wearing a translator from his seat, so although Geddes wasn't using interstellar language, he could still understand him.
Guedes began with some very formal pleasantries, such as thanking them for attending the conference. After at least ten minutes, he finally got down to business.
Geddes first gave a very detailed report on the recent progress of research on void creatures at the conference, then pointed out the current solutions, and finally, amidst a chorus of discussion, he invited Li Chenglong to the central podium, stating that the key to completely solving the void creature problem was someone who could freely travel between dimensions.
Many of the planetary representatives at the meeting were aware of the joint research by the planets of Meilan, Roland, and Hailan into the G-Gem and their attempt to combat the void creatures. However, they hadn't expected the progress to have reached this level, with someone already successfully fusing with the G-Gem and gaining the ability to travel between dimensions through it.
In fact, the fact that Lee Sung-long gained the ability to travel between dimensions after acquiring the G Gem surprised not only Rena, one of the leaders of the G Gem research, but also Queen Raymond of Roland. This is because, according to the original design of the G Gem, it was simply an energy body that could automatically grow and become an energy entity capable of attracting a large number of void creatures before exploding.
However, after Lena implanted the G-Gem into Lee Sung-ryong, and through his continuous growth and gradual fusion with the G-Gem, his spatial abilities, originally acquired through the advanced technology of Planet Merar, gradually evolved into the ability to travel through dimensions, even time and space. His previous journey from the future back to the present is the best proof of this. However, time travel requires enormous energy, is extremely dangerous, and has many limitations, so Lee Sung-ryong never used it again afterward.
Li Chenglong had previously tried to travel back in time to stop the aliens from releasing the virus, but several attempts failed, and he didn't know the specific reason behind it. It's likely that his journey to the future was accidental, which is why he could travel back, but not back to the past.
Upon learning that the person standing in the center was the one with the ability to travel through dimensions, the delegates began to discuss it intensely. Some of the representatives from the most powerful planets, sitting in the innermost circle, looked at Li Chenglong with surprise, while others looked at him with delight.
After the long meeting, Guedes and a dozen others invited Li Chenglong to a small conference room. Once everyone was there, he turned on a display screen and, while showing an animation, explained, "Our plan is this: we will send a fleet to take Li Chenglong to the boundary between the central and inner spheres of the galaxy, which is also the current gathering place of the void creatures. After arriving there, Li Chenglong will need to unleash his full power, gather as many void creatures as possible, open a dimensional rift, and rush in together. After the void creatures have rushed in, Li Chenglong will use his abilities to travel back and close the dimensional rift, thus achieving the goal of trapping the void creatures in the dimensional space."
Princess Nina asked, "Mr. Guedes, we all know that void creatures possess the ability to travel between dimensions. Even if our plan succeeds, it will only temporarily confine them to the dimensional space. They will eventually return to our universe. Furthermore, I feel that this plan is fraught with uncertainty and is extremely dangerous."
Before Guedes could speak, Li Chenglong stood up first: "I'm not afraid of any danger. The void creatures have already visited my home planet Earth once, and I don't know when they will appear again. Even if it's not for Earth, I'm going to risk it for my Dawn City and for my wife and children. But I just want to know, Mr. Guedes, how confident are you that your method will succeed?"
Upon hearing this, the dozen or so aliens from different planets in the conference room all looked at the tree-like Geddes. Geddes looked at "Octopus Brother" and "Cat Girl" before saying, "Actually, we have investigated this method in detail. It was used by someone more than 5,000 years ago, and that person was also the last recorded person with the ability to travel between dimensions."
Miraru, nicknamed "Octopus Brother," then began a detailed explanation: "As you all know, traces of void creatures first appeared in our galaxy as early as ten thousand years ago. At first, their scale was small, but as time passed, their numbers increased, reaching a point where they could obscure an entire cosmic region. However, more than five thousand years ago, the number of void creatures suddenly decreased significantly. Therefore, we conducted a detailed investigation around this time and finally discovered the figure of Kevin, a level 14 powerhouse from Planet Soros."
"Cat Girl" Lily continued, "After learning about Kevin, because there was very little information, we conducted an investigation for more than a dozen cosmic years and finally learned the truth from more than 5,000 years ago. Kevin used his ability to travel between dimensions and used his super strong energy as a level 14 powerhouse to lure most of the void creatures into the dimensional rift and destroy them."
Geddes nodded and said to Princess Nina, "Your Highness Nina, I will now answer your first question: Will the Void Creatures, once trapped in the dimensional rift, use their dimensional travel abilities to return to our galaxy? Through our investigation of Kevin's case, combined with our investigation of powerful individuals with dimensional abilities in ancient times, we have discovered that the dimensional rifts opened by those with dimensional travel abilities possess special power, making it impossible for the Void Creatures to escape. Moreover, we can guarantee this with the full support of our Void Creature Countermeasures Committee."
Hearing them say that, Li Chenglong finally felt more confident. If Kevin could return, then he certainly could too. Moreover, he had succeeded even without the G-Stone, a super-powerful energy source, so his chances of success would be even higher.
He immediately stepped forward and said, "I am willing to carry out this mission, but I have two conditions. First, our Earth's civilization level is currently far behind that of your Interstellar Alliance. We apply to join your Interstellar Alliance and be treated as equals. Second, we hope that you can provide support to our Earth, especially to China and Dawn City, in various technologies, and help us resist the remnants of those possible Void creatures."
After a moment's thought and exchanging opinions with everyone present, Guedes said, "Alright, your two requests aren't unreasonable, and we agree. To tell you the truth, everyone here is a representative of the original planets that formed the Interstellar Alliance. Now that they've agreed, it means that from this moment on, you've become members of the Interstellar Alliance. Later, we'll add Earth's name to both documents and cosmic maps. As for the second issue of technological support, that's certainly possible, but we can't rush it. Given Earth's current development level, it's not suitable to absorb too much advanced technology at once."
Seeing that they agreed, Li Chenglong breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let's not delay. When can we begin?" Guedes said seriously: "One day from now. One day for us is 72 hours for your Earth, so we will set off in 72 hours."
After dealing with this matter, Li Chenglong and Nina left first, while Guedes and the others had to continue the meeting and prepare for what was to come.
