# Chapter 2037: Dark Matter Tide
Watt trembled in fright, quickly covering Yueli's mouth to keep her from making a sound!
At this moment, Yueli's face was flushed red, her eyes filled with shock. Did she hear that right? What was Jiangnan trying to do?
Having fought a Star Ruins War wasn't enough, now he actually wanted to dismantle the Thousand Stars City?
History repeating itself? Reenacting the Thousand Stars Rebellion from over three thousand years ago?
Had he gone mad?
Originally, humanity still had a chance to survive, but if Jiangnan actually did this, it would be equivalent to declaring war on all the Starry Sky Races, and there really wouldn't be any way to survive!
If she had known, she wouldn't have eavesdropped!
Not only was Yueli shocked, but even Watt's core processor was overheating and smoking from the high load!
Was Jiangnan not planning to keep going?
It took Noah a long time to recover, and he said with amusement:
(๑՞↼՞)"This really caught me off guard. Do you know what you're saying?"
"Telling a member race of the Sacred Law Council's Sequence that you want to dismantle the Thousand Stars City? And you want to drag me into this?"
"Are you crazy, or am I? What? Forced into a corner with no way out, so you want to go all in? And you want to drag the Dark Cosmos Entity down with you?"
"What makes you think I'll help you?"
Jiangnan grinned: "Because we share common interests! Once my operation succeeds, the Thousand Stars Rebellion will rise again!"
"Then the entire starry sky will fall into chaos because of this, and I'll have thoroughly stirred up this muddy water. Humanity will become the center of the storm! The source of chaos!"
"At that time, the Starry Sky Races will probably have no time to worry about the Sequence War preparations, and will instead be busy cleaning up the mess!"
"And the Silicon-Based race, who just gained an advantage, will also suffer a major setback from improper handling. The Bose race goes without saying—they'll only make things worse, since they're the ones who created this situation, aren't they?"
Wang Youzhi smiled and added:
(๑͡°ݓ͡°)"For your Dark Cosmos Entity, the starry sky falling into complete chaos is far more advantageous than continuing the current development trend!"
"This way, your Dark Cosmos Entity doesn't have to fear the lower Sequences eyeing you covetously, and you've also humiliated both the Bose race and the Silicon-Based race!"
"Heroes emerge in troubled times. Only when the starry sky is in chaos do opportunities arise, right? That's also the reason you're so enthusiastic about distributing guns, isn't it?"
Noah's eyes flickered, then he narrowed them and said:
(๑¯ิ_¯ิ)"Just relying on you humans? You do have some skills, and the Star Ruins War was fought beautifully enough!"
"But with this little foundation, you dare to attempt a Thousand Stars Rebellion? Do you think the Starry Sky Races are made of paper? I can only say you're too naive!"
"And asking for my help? If my Dark Cosmos Entity gets involved and it gets exposed, it's equivalent to standing against all the Starry Sky Races!"
"Why should my Dark Cosmos Entity wade through this muddy water with you in humanity's deathbed struggle?"
Wang Youzhi smiled: "Don't worry about how we'll dismantle it. It definitely won't be weaker than Jiang Fan's attempt that time!"
Jiangnan said calmly: "Danger and opportunity always coexist. If you don't want to take risks, where would opportunities come from?"
"Besides, I don't need the Dark Cosmos Entity to send people to help fight. This is the revenge of us Blue Star humans!"
"I only need the Dark Cosmos Entity to help seal off the Thousand Stars Domain, block the Starry Sky Races from coming to reinforce us after the war starts, and prevent the Star Devourer-level existences of various races from arriving too quickly, holding them off for a period of time!"
"It won't take long. I can turn the Thousand Stars City into ruins. When it comes to demolition, I'm a professional!"
Noah's mouth twitched. I know you're a professional. The Black Street being turned into that ghost of a state has everything to do with you, doesn't it?
Raising a Thousand Stars Rebellion again? Interesting!
I knew this kid wouldn't accept his fate so easily. He had to stir up some more trouble!
But I didn't expect Jiangnan to play so big and even come to ask for my help!
Noah narrowed his eyes: "I don't know where your confidence comes from, but you seem very confident you can pull this off?"
"But have you considered why the Silicon-Based race, which is always cautious and watertight, would so abnormally agree to give you a half-month buffer period? Normally, they would never give you time!"
"Is it because they're certain that humanity will rebel during this period, giving the Sacred Law Council enough reason to directly wipe out humanity, and making all the Starry Sky Races share the risk of destroying humanity?"
"Do you know the true meaning of nipping danger in the bud? Don't you understand what it means to eliminate the root? Can you be sure that the Silicon-Based race isn't using this half-month as bait to lure you into the trap?"
At this moment, Wang Youzhi's eyes widened!
Damn! Is there such a possibility?
The reason the Silicon-Based race abnormally agreed to give humanity a half-month buffer period was precisely to provoke humanity into taking action and resisting!
Thus giving the Sacred Law Council a reason to completely eliminate humanity, with the risk being shared by all races?
They've already made enemies, so they might as well eradicate the root and eliminate future trouble?
They don't even want to fulfill the Ten Thousand Races Accord anymore?
If this is really the case, the Silicon-Based race's calculations are terrifying!
Not only did they stab us in the back, but they also want to crush us?
They're simply sinister to the core!
Sure enough, a group of profit-driven beings. No matter the situation, they always come out as the biggest winners!
Jiangnan's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled as he asked back: "Why do you think I asked for this half-month of time in the first place?"
In racial struggles, the slightest error could mean extinction or planetary destruction. How could Jiangnan not have considered that?
That's why he was so cautious!
Noah said with great interest: "Oh? Knowing this, you still bite the hook. I really don't know if you're brave or you don't want to live!"
"Aren't you afraid I'll report your visit here to the Sacred Law Council? I think the Silicon-Based race and the Bose race would be very happy to see this!"
Wang Youzhi narrowed his eyes. If that were the case, he'd have to use some tricks!
Jiangnan said calmly: "Don't worry. Since I dared to come to you today and reveal my plan, whether it succeeds or not, I'm not afraid of you leaking it!"
"Even if the plan is exposed, it will have some impact on my operations, but limited!"
Even if Noah reported it and the Sacred Law Council really planned to act, at worst they wouldn't wait anymore and would directly move the solar system to the Lost Kingdom!
Then they could take it slowly. Jiangnan wasn't afraid of Noah sabotaging them!
They couldn't lose much anyway!
On the contrary, if he agreed to help, the benefit would be enormous!
"I believe you won't let this great opportunity slip away!"
Noah said coldly: "Hmph, you've trusted the wrong person. My Dark Cosmos Entity won't wade through this muddy water!"
"You want me to help seal the Thousand Stars Domain? Block various races from supporting? Delay the arrival of Star Devourers? If this happens, my Dark Cosmos Entity would become an accomplice! We'd also bear the blame and be targeted!"
"The risk far outweighs the gain! And as the Sacred Law Council said, humanity seems to have inherently restless factors in its bones. That one was like that, and so are you!"
"With such a dangerous race on the rise, how can I judge that you won't threaten my race's interests? Better to not give you any chance at all!"
Jiangnan took a deep breath: "First! Humanity needs time to grow. Growing into a behemoth comparable to the top ten Sequences will take who knows how long! In the short term, we pose no threat!"
"Second! The cake of the starry sky is big enough. Each race eats their own, and there won't be much food competition. I don't believe the third Sequence Dark Cosmos Entity lacks such magnanimity!"
"Third! If you don't betray me, I won't betray you! Among the top ten Sequences, aside from the top three fighting alone, the bottom six all have alliances! Why do you always consider that humanity will be a threat? Have you ever thought that if we become allies, what value we could create?"
"Providing timely assistance is far more valuable than adding flowers to brocade. I only need one hour! One hour! I will turn the Thousand Stars City into ruins. What others dare not do, I, Jiangnan, will do!"
Noah silently gazed at Jiangnan, his eyes shifting:
"Sorry, but there's no way my Dark Cosmos Entity can get involved in this matter. Not even a possibility!"
Wang Youzhi curled his lips: (︶৺︶∗)"Looks like the Dark Cosmos Entity doesn't have much courage either. An opportunity right before their eyes and they don't dare to try? Tsk tsk tsk~"
Noah's mouth twitched. This human who keeps scratching his butt looks pretty cocky?
He dares to provoke me? Not afraid I'll destroy him?
Jiangnan refused to give up: "Since you don't want to get involved, I won't force you! But can you supply me with some forbidden weapons?"
"Don't you want to distribute guns to the Starry Sky Races? I can be the one holding the gun! However chaotic you want this starry sky to be, I'll make it that chaotic! Causing trouble is also my specialty!"
"Don't worry about the aftermath, because we'll use weapons from the Dark Cosmos Entity and be criticized by all races. We can use the Black Mark Assembly as an excuse—say I bought them myself. I can also buy them with Incense Beads and see if..."
Noah still shook his head: "Don't say anymore! I can't possibly supply you with weapons! Otherwise, even if there's a plausible reason after the fact, it'll inevitably attract criticism from all races!"
"Besides, my race also raises Star-Devouring Giant Worms and doesn't lack Incense Beads. Energy-type lifeforms among the top ten Sequences don't lack this stuff either!"
"Get out, get out! You're not welcome here. I'll pretend you never came today! If you don't leave and my patience runs out, you might not be able to leave!"
Wang Youzhi curled his lips, stepped forward and grabbed Jiangnan's arm, pulling him toward the door!
(งˇ৺ˇ)ว"Pfft, who cares about cooperating with you? Let's go! We'll find another place to talk. He doesn't want to join, someone else will!"
Jiangnan's eyes dimmed, but he still cupped his fists toward Noah: "Business is business, but goodwill remains. Thank you for keeping our plan secret for humanity!"
With that, he was pulled by Wang Youzhi toward the door!
But Noah's mouth curled into a smile as he suddenly spoke:
(๑◔_◔ิ)"I don't know if you've ever heard of dark matter tides!"
Jiangnan was stunned. Why did he suddenly bring this up? What was Noah up to?
"I haven't heard of it!"
Noah kept playing with the dark matter ball: "Dark matter is regular invisible matter. In the current universe, visible matter accounts for about 5% of the total. And that 5% of visible matter makes up roughly two trillion galaxies!"
"Meanwhile, the total amount of dark matter in the universe is about 26%—over five times more than visible matter!"
"This dark matter isn't docile. It usually converges, surges, and occasionally forms massive dark matter tides, which are a highly destructive Starry Sky Calamity!"
Wang Youzhi: ???
Has Noah gone mad? He's already chasing people away, so why is he giving a science lecture? Who doesn't know this knowledge? What's he showing off for?
Noah continued: "And the cause of dark matter tides remains a mystery to this day. They're uncontrollable by humans. Wherever they pass, spacetime becomes distorted. Even particle transmission and Star Gate teleportation are forcibly cut off!"
"Even Star Devourer-level experts can't easily break through a dark matter tide on their own, after all, it's a Starry Sky Calamity!"
"And recently, the experts of our race predicted that a massive dark matter tide might hit the Thousand Stars City and several surrounding Star Domains soon!"
"It should last about 30 minutes! I imagine the Thousand Stars City will be in chaos then, right? Sigh~ It's a natural disaster, no way around it!"
The corner of Jiangnan's mouth lifted into a curve!
"Oh? Your race can predict such an elusive Starry Sky Calamity? That's quite impressive!"
"But this dark matter tide that can't be artificially controlled... can't it last for an hour?"
Noah's mouth twitched. You want too damn much!
"It should only last about 30 minutes, right? After all, those Star Devourer-level experts are very powerful. 30 minutes is enough to suppress a dark matter tide of this scale, right?"
Jiangnan rested his chin:
(๑͡°ก͡°)"I have a feeling it could last 45 minutes. How about you check the weather forecast again to be sure?"
Noah: (̿▀̿益▀̿̿ꐦ)"Just thirty! I just checked!"
