# Chapter 1812: A Trivial Beacon Data Point?
Karl cursed loudly, "What the hell did you let them steal everything? What's left?"
(✡͡°益͡°) "You piece of junk copper scrap! What functions are still working properly?"
Star Palace AI: "Air conditioning and fresh air system, self-destruct program functioning normally. Do you wish to activate—"
[From Karl's Resentment Value +1003!]
"Activate my ass! Don't you dare activate it! What good is a damn AC system left? It's pissing me off!"
As he spoke, his fist was raised high, but there wasn't even a tabletop to pound!
He froze for a moment, then couldn't help but hammer his fist down on Kaori's crown, giving her head a huge red lump!
Kaori: _(꒦ິ⌂꒦ີゝ∠)_
Serves you right! You deserve to be robbed! Just you wait, Kaori, you'll get your karma!
Karl squinted at Li Mingshan!
"You'd better know your place! Saint Star has the power to create gods, and equally the power to kill them!"
"Do what you're supposed to do. If you screw things up again next time, you'll pay with your life!"
Li Mingshan lowered his head and nodded: "Yes, Lord Karl!"
Karl's expression finally softened a bit: "Your strength needs to be upgraded too. Once the Ten Decisors bring the supplies, I'll let you use them!"
"Since you've chosen to be the blade in my hand, the blade should be sharp. And a blade is meant for killing people! Understand?"
Li Mingshan nodded heavily. Just as he was about to speak, a void fluctuation came through!
Igor pulled Cooper and Gabriel along as they appeared in the main control hall!
He couldn't help but show a face of utter shock: "Lord Karl, how could someone as noble as you sit on a human being?"
"Where's the stool? And how did this star palace get slashed by a sword? Which damn idiot has no eyes? This little punk must be tired of living!"
"Just tell me who did it, and I'll dismember them right now. I'll chop their head off and use it as a ball for you to kick!"
For a moment, the main control hall fell into absolute silence!
Rhein: (✡ಡ⥎ಡ)
Well, that's really kissing up to the wrong hoof!
Karl: (ꐦ▼益▼ꐦ)
"I slashed it myself! Are you going to take my head off and use it as a ball?"
Igor: (٥･ˇㅂˇ･)
"Ah-ha~ Ahaha, that's what I was saying! How could an ordinary human possibly unleash a sword strike of such immense power? And to think they could get inside the Star Palace's protective barrier?"
"It must be Lord Karl's masterpiece!"
Karl instantly drew his sword and walked toward Igor with the Holy Judgment Blade!
٩(ꐦ｀益´) "Can you just shut your damn mouth? Did your horns grow back again?"
Igor was so scared he hugged his head. Rhein quickly stepped forward to hold Karl back: "Lord Karl! You can't keep cutting people off! Gostandin is already dead. If you cut Igor down too, we won't have anyone left!"
Igor was stunned: "Gostandin died? How?"
He, Cooper, and Gabriel had been tracking the Creation Beast's whereabouts. He had no idea what had happened!
Rhein then recounted everything that had occurred during that time.
Cooper clicked his tongue as he listened:
(￢益￢ꐦ) "Tsk– Despicable humans. All they can do is play petty tricks. Truly cunning and full of schemes."
Inside his head: Hahaha! Boss Nan is absolutely amazing! The news got out, and he actually went and stole it?
So my efforts weren't wasted, huh?
Igor clenched his steel teeth: "Jiangnan! It must be his idea. He keeps killing our people time and again!"
"He's killed three of us!"
Karl squinted: "I'll take his life myself. How's the search for the Creation Beast going?"
At this, Igor gave a bitter smile: "Not much progress. We have some leads, but they ran cold. The Bose particles left on their movement trail disappeared. We lost them."
"But we can confirm the Creation Sacred Beast is still around Blue Star."
Karl rubbed his brow and waved his hand: "Set that aside for now. Your World Purification Plan has been effective."
"Right now, those four Transcendents among the humans are quite an eyesore. As long as they're around, it won't be easy to seize the Spirit Medium."
"I've already laid down tough words. Regarding the Spirit Medium, do you have any good ideas?"
At this, Igor gave a sinister smile: "Easy! If we can't snatch it openly, then we'll scheme a bit!"
"I've had plans in place for a long time. After all, my twenty-plus years of careful planning here weren't for nothing. There are still unused cards in the human camp."
"Blue Star has an old saying: 'Easy to dodge an open attack, hard to guard against a hidden arrow.'"
Hearing this, Cooper's heart sank heavily.
There are still Saint Star operatives lurking in the human camp? Who?
Li Mingshan's eyes flickered as well.
Karl suddenly became interested:
(✡◔д◔ิ) "Oh? So this project manager of yours isn't completely useless? What's the plan? Let's hear it?"
Igor chuckled: "It's just that we don't have many people right now. This plan also requires a fair amount of preparation."
"When will the Ten Decisors arrive? With their help, the Spirit Medium will be within easy reach."
"And we can also start the enslavement work properly then! External pressure combined with internal disintegration!"
"The fate of the human race has reached its end!"
Karl patted Kaori's head with a big hand: "Hahaha! Good! Very good! The Ten Decisors will be here soon! I look forward to your plan!"
"Rhein! Watch and learn from Igor, understand?"
Igor was full of pride, but Rhein looked disdainful.
(乛～乛ꐦ) "Got it!"
Igor raised an eyebrow:
(✡•̆д•̆) "But since the black barrier was removed, did the signal from the Beacon Star Palace reach the Terminal Database?"
Karl said indifferently: "I cut off the Star Palace's communication device. They didn't call me either. Most likely it didn't go through. No need to worry about that."
Igor finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good..."

In the cosmic space, countless light-years away from Blue Star.
Within the Creation Star Domain, Thousand Stars City, at the Silicon-based lifeform's Shenji Star, Northern Star Palace 4S Shop.
A mechanical species after-sales representative was routinely checking the data returned from all sold Star Palaces in the Terminal Database.
Suddenly, an inconspicuous beacon signal caught the mechanical creature's attention.
A crimson light flashed in its mechanical eyes.
Beacon Coordinates: Laniakea Supercluster, Milky Way Galaxy (Barred Spiral Galaxy)
Within the Eighth Arm, Blue Star!
Planet's Primary Race: Humans?
Star Palace Owner: Bose Clan branch, Saint Star high-level, Karl! Code name: God of the Stars!
Owner Info: Karl! Confirmed dead! Cause of death: Died in the Extreme Dark Star Dome, Dimensional War!
A flicker of inexplicable fear appeared in the mechanical creature's otherwise emotionless mechanical eyes.
Humans?
It's actually humans?
Blue Star? That planet that once produced that existence?
The Terminal Database showed Karl as dead, yet his Star Palace appeared on Blue Star and sent back a beacon signal. After that, there was no further communication.
How could a dead person appear on a planet considered taboo by all races?
This was enough to explain many issues.
Without a second thought, the mechanical species directly sent this signal back to the Silicon-based mechanical species' main star region for higher-ups to decide.

Guangke Star Domain. Vast and brilliant here.
Highly mechanized planets orbited along specific trajectories.
From time to time, large starships could be seen flying in groups through the starry sky, making jump navigation, warp speed navigation.
One could even see giant wormhole teleportation gates floating near several stars, drawing energy from the stars to maintain the operation of wormhole gates whose diameters rivaled those of planets.
Countless starships were coming and going through the gates.
The entire Guangke Star Domain was highly developed by Silicon-based lifeforms.
It represented the pinnacle of advanced technology under the starry sky.
Looking around, though it was just a pile of cold machinery, it was full of vitality.
And at the main star of Guangke Star Domain, Zhibrain Star!
The entire Zhibrain Star was part of the Terminal Database, processing a super-huge amount of data.
Viewed from space, the whole planet flickered with a faint green light.
Inside the Zhibrain Star Silicon Core Hall! Dozens of mechanical spheres, each over three meters in diameter, were suspended.
All revolved around a central core brain nearly 10 meters in diameter.
Countless optical signals interacted on the spheres, sharing information with the Terminal Database.
Just then, one of the mechanical brains flashed brightly.
It received information sent from Shenji Star's northern region.
It looked toward the core brain and spoke in extremely obscure mechanical language:
"Lord Silicon! Information from Shenji Star. A beacon signal from a Star Palace was sent back from Blue Star, owned by humans."
"The owner of the Star Palace is Karl. The database shows he died in battle in the Dimensional War in the Extreme Dark Star Dome."
"How should this be handled?"
During the exchange, the information had already been transmitted.
The core brain's light flickered.
"Interesting! Could Saint Star be violating the Ten Thousand Races Accord, secretly developing Blue Star without the races' knowledge?"
"Was the loss they suffered back then not enough? I thought it was strange that recently, there have been many Bose bodies exiled from the Bose Clan."
"Or dead in battle. Now the Ten Decisors have gone missing and their whereabouts are unknown. The Sacred Law Council has launched an investigation, but the results have not been announced yet."
"As the overlord of the starry sky, the Bose Clan has strong individual combat power and is extremely difficult to kill. First Karl, now the Ten Decisors."
"Hmph! Trying to hide from all races and secretly send people to develop Blue Star? The Sacred Law Council knows the law but breaks it. They guard the granary and steal the grain!"
"If not for this beacon signal, my Silicon Clan would still be kept in the dark!"
The secondary brain immediately proposed: "Should we make this public and unite all races to impose sanctions on Saint Star and the Sacred Law Council's actions?"
"Defend the Ten Thousand Races Accord?"
The core brain: "What benefit would that bring to my mechanical species?"
"In recent years, the Bose Clan has feared that my Silicon Clan's rapid development might challenge their status as starry sky overlord. They've been continuously suppressing us."
"The Silicon Clan has long suffered under the Sacred Law Council. If this is made public, the Sacred Law Council will lose all face and credibility."
"But even so, they remain the starry sky overlord. What good would that do my clan? We might even be targeted again. Between two advantages, weigh the heavier."
"It's not easy to catch the Sacred Law Council in a scandal. We can't let it go so lightly!"
