The Cosmic Ga: an evolutionary ga from a mysterious civilization.
No one knows its specific purpose.
However, judging from the experiences of Cangxing’s many Players, the ga’s ostensible purpose is actually quite simple.
Naly, to spread faith in great beings across all the worlds and civilizations within the ga.
The God of All Machines, the Mother of All Things, and the God of Thousand Faces.
These are the three greatest Deities within the Cosmic Ga.
Of course, in Hasting Cole’s view, spreading faith was just one of the Cosmic Ga’s many purposes.
This was clear from the ga’s progression.
The Cosmic Ga usually expanded by attacking or tempting other civilizations into its territory.
However, at tis, the ga’s content also included civil wars.
What this ’civil war’ entailed was also easy to understand.
It simply ant that the factions of the three great Deities within the Cosmic Ga would occasionally erupt into conflict.
For instance, if one had to assign an allegiance to Cangxing, it undoubtedly belonged to the God of All Machines’ faction.
The Sinful God that Cheng Hua had beco was a Subordinate God directly under the God of All Machines.
If a civil war ever broke out in the Cosmic Ga,
Cheng Hua, along with all the other Players from Cangxing, would have to fight as Warriors for the God of All Machines, slaughtering Players from the other two divine factions.
From this perspective, the relationship between the Three Gods in the Cosmic Ga was not as harmonious or simple as it appeared on the surface.
Of course, Hasting Cole also suspected that this so-called factional slaughter could be entirely for the amusent of the Three Gods.
After all, Deities had an abundance of ti; it wasn’t impossible that they started these conflicts out of sheer boredom.
He also couldn’t rule out the suspicion that this was all a form of ’Cultivating Gu’.
But whatever the reason, as mbers of the Cosmic Ga’s domain, the humans of Cangxing had no choice.
The two of them talked for a long ti on the empty floor.
And the more Cheng Hua learned, the more shocked he beca.
He even felt a creeping dread in the pit of his stomach.
Because, compared to the True Ga, the current Cosmic Ga was on a much grander scale.
In Cangxing’s more than one hundred years of history with the ga, Hasting Cole alone knew of at least thirty civilizations that Players had encountered.
Among those, Cangxing’s Players had the ’fortune’ to encounter or learn of eighteen civilizations that were completely annihilated by the Cosmic Ga—entire planets wiped from existence.
This highlighted just how fortunate Cangxing had been to be selected as a "Cosmic Ga marketing hub" planet during the ga’s expansion.
On this topic, the person Hasting Cole ntioned most in his conversation with Cheng Hua was a man known as the Great Shepherd.
Because of the Great Shepherd, Cangxing’s original civilization had collapsed.
But in exchange, at the very mont the Cosmic Ga officially expanded to their world, Cangxing was able to preserve its Eco-Cities and even gain the privilege of becoming a marketing hub planet.
Life on a marketing hub planet was not necessarily ideal.
But at least Cangxing had not descended into total chaos, nor had it been completely "harvested" by the Cosmic Ga.
In fact, on planets that beca marketing hubs, the rulers of the Eco-Cities, people like him, received unimaginable benefits.
Cheng Hua was finally beginning to understand why the rules of the True Ga had been unable to achieve their Descent in this world.
Setting aside the question of whether the True Ga’s Power could even compare to that of the Cosmic Ga,
judging by what the Cosmic Ga had revealed, any confidence Cheng Hua previously held in the True Ga had now completely crumbled.
Forget everything else.
The so-called God of All Machines alone could create a Sinful God with such ease.
’Could such a being be weak?’
’The Chief of the True Ga, the Dragon God, is undeniably strong, but can the Dragon Race who serve as his Vassals achieve Ascension to Divinity so easily?’
Obviously not.
But Cheng Hua also knew that different Deities wielded different authorities.
A powerful Ability to create subordinates did not necessarily translate to imnse combat strength.
But no matter how you looked at it, the fundantal power of a being like the God of All Machines had to be countless tis greater than that of an ordinary Deity.
And that wasn’t even ntioning the two other beings in this ga who were at least on the sa level of existence.
He recalled the mission prompt from the True Ga.
’Just... stay alive?’
When their conversation paused, Cheng Hua fell completely silent.
However, Hasting Cole seed to notice Cheng Hua’s heavy mood.
He imdiately offered so words of comfort.
"Feeling the pressure now that you know all this about the Cosmic Ga, are you?"
"But you needn’t worry so much, Mr. Cheng Hua."
"After all, you are the first ’Divine Son’ on Cangxing to earn the favor of the God of All Machines during your very first contact with the Cosmic Ga."
"With the Power of a Divine Son and the favor of the God of All Machines, your progress in the ga will undoubtedly be countless tis better than others."
Cheng Hua looked directly at Hasting Cole and nodded.
"I hope so."
Seeing Cheng Hua’s response, a glint appeared in Hasting Cole’s eyes as he smiled again.
"It most certainly will."
"By the way, Mr. Cheng Hua, since we’ve co this far, I’ll stop beating around the bush."
"I would like to invite you to beco the honorary vice president of Giant Technology. Would you be interested?"
Cheng Hua frowned, looking Hasting Cole straight in the eye.
"Honorary Vice President?"
"That position should co with a great deal of authority in the Eco-City, correct? So what’s the price?"
Hasting Cole smiled and waved his hand dismissively.
"Authority within the Eco-City is nothing special."
"For a man like you, Mr. Cheng Hua, a small world like Cangxing is hardly enough to contain you."
"This is really just a small proposal on my part."
