Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic

After calming down, the elderly woman, Shao Lan, couldn't help but sigh: "We are still too young. Faced with such matters, we immediately panic. Unlike Mr. Su Yu, who remains composed and calm."

Initially, she had already been in despair, but after Su Yu's analysis, she had returned to a normal mindset.

Xiao Shengyin and Qi Chen nodded repeatedly, expressing their agreement.

Su Yu almost laughed when he heard this. Shao Lan, Xiao Shengyin, and Qi Chen together might total nearly two thousand years old.

And yet, they're saying "we are still too young," which really made it hard for Su Yu to keep a straight face.

However, Su Yu's current disguised identity is that of a resurrected millennia-old big shot, so Shao Lan and the others considering themselves young isn't wrong.

Su Yu could only maintain a solemn face, continuing to uphold the demeanor of a big shot.

Among them, however, there was actually one true young person, Qi Chen.

He looked like a child, and it was unclear whether he was truly so young or had a special profession preventing him from aging.

Qi Chen joined Xiao Shengyin and the others, exclaiming a few things with seeming delight, and said:

"Mr. Su Yu, if we do as you say, won't we be attacked by those terrifying mechanical creations? Will we not die?"

His tone was a bit naive, as if he really was a young child.

Su Yu glanced at him but shook his head: "Don't be too optimistic. At best, it only delays the time a bit. What must come will come. There's no escaping it."

Upon hearing this, Qi Chen immediately slumped down.

Xiao Shengyin and Shao Lan's eyes, however, brightened, and they hurriedly said: "Mr. Su Yu, do you already know the truth behind all this? Please enlighten us!"

Just now, Su Yu's words seemed to hold deeper meaning. Otherwise, why would he say things like what must come will come and is unavoidable?

Su Yu nodded, his expression solemn: "Zhang Chenfeng's creations are incredibly powerful and must possess advanced intelligence."

"Within the dark clouds above, the essence of the Brutal Evil God is hidden, impeding their detection, otherwise, you might have already been fully investigated and would be subject to the execution of massacre procedures."

"But even with the obstruction of the clouds and your prior preparations, it's expected to only delay matters for a period of time."

"After all, those creations are extremely high-level. No one knows what means they have. Once targeted, escaping becomes nearly impossible."

Xiao Shengyin and the other two nodded in agreement.

Indeed, Zhang Chenfeng's creations are terrifying. How can one easily rid oneself of them?

However, it seemed that Su Yu still had more to say?

Xiao Shengyin and the others looked at Su Yu, waiting for his next words.

Sure enough, Su Yu continued: "Also... have you ever heard of the word {catastrophe}?"

Upon hearing this unfamiliar term, Xiao Shengyin and the others looked at each other in confusion, shaking their heads, unable to understand its meaning.

This word was one that Su Yu had known before he crossed over, so it wasn't surprising that Xiao Shengyin and the others didn't know it.

Su Yu wasn't surprised and continued speaking to himself: "It is said that a long time ago, some Spiritual Users, after cultivating to extremely powerful realms, possessed long lifespans that allowed them to enjoy life to the fullest."

"But these powerful Spiritual Users, after a certain period, always encountered sudden unknown dangers and fell to their deaths, with almost none dying a natural death."

"It seems this was their destined fate."

"Unable to understand, they named this situation {catastrophe}."

"Meaning a fateful, unavoidable calamity."

"And now, you are likely encountering such a fateful {catastrophe}."

Su Yu casually concocted a story, applying the term {catastrophe} to the Spiritual Users.

Hearing these words from Su Yu, Xiao Shengyin and the others felt as if they were hearing heavenly scriptures.

Does this mean Su Yu believes that the Seven-Star strong ones must inevitably fall due to so-called fate and catastrophe?

But... catastrophe, fate? That seems too mystical.

Although they are Seven-Star or Eight-Star Transcendents with various powerful abilities...

Ultimately, they are utilizing energy, data, and information to achieve different effects.

Now, what Su Yu is saying is about mysterious fate and calamity, which seems… unscientific.

Xiao Shengyin and the other Transcendents are not like those charlatans but have a strong scientific spirit.

Su Yu's somewhat charlatan-like words were hard for them to accept.

Seeing their disbelief, Su Yu pondered for a moment and changed his approach: "Then let me use another term."

"Replace it with... Subspace Backlash, how's that?"

Upon hearing this phrase, Xiao Shengyin and the others looked thoughtful: "Subspace Backlash? What does that mean?"

Su Yu said in a deep voice: "We Spiritual Users all absorb spiritual energy from the subspace to perform various abilities. All our power comes from the subspace!"

"Upon reaching the Seven-Stars, one can even open a subspace gate within oneself to absorb subspace spiritual energy more efficiently and quickly."

"Subspace seems like a source of inexhaustible, unlimited energy..."

Xiao Shengyin and the others, upon hearing this, became even more confused: "Isn't it?"

Isn't subspace precisely such a space of unlimited energy?

Su Yu shook his head: "I don't think so."

"How in the world could there be such a beneficial thing, a space containing unlimited energy, allowing us to absorb and utilize it at will?"

"We seem to absorb energy from the subspace without a price. But the subspace might have long recorded an {account} for us and will sooner or later backlash against us."

"Now, your time has come. The subspace wants to collect the {account}. All the energy absorbed previously must be returned with interest, and if you can't pay back, you'll pay with your life."

"This is Subspace Backlash."

As Su Yu spoke, he also pondered.

In truth, he only had some immature conjectures and was organizing his thoughts while speaking.

"Subspace Backlash? {Collecting the account}? How does that work?"

"Subspace isn't a biological entity; it doesn't possess consciousness, so how can it record accounts and collect them?"

"Moreover, according to you, Mr. Su Yu, we are targeted by Zhang Chenfeng's creations, not related to the subspace, right?"

Xiao Shengyin and the others felt that Su Yu was speaking more and more strangely.

At this moment, Su Yu had organized his thoughts and chuckled lightly, "How do you know that subspace isn't a biological entity and lacks consciousness? If subspace can nurture Evil Gods, could it itself possess life and consciousness?"

"Even if subspace is neither a biological entity nor consciously aware, does that mean it can't record accounts? Our every move is projected in the subspace, isn't this recording accounts?"

Su Yu's few words left Xiao Shengyin and the others speechless.

Then Su Yu continued: "As for how subspace {collects accounts}, it's a different matter."

"Remember, subspace is extremely chaotic. Both time and space are chaotic."

"Subspace can influence shifts in time lines. To us, beings unable to transcend time, time equates to fate! So subspace can influence fate!"

"If subspace wants to {collect accounts}, it may not crudely unleash power and blast us away."

"Its {account collection} method is influencing time lines and affecting our fate!"

"As a result, we encounter justified and unavoidable misfortunes, deaths. After death, energy and soul return to the subspace, where it is reclaimed."

"This is the so-called {catastrophe}, {calamity}."

"Since the energy of subspace was absorbed, eventually, it must be repaid!"

Su Yu's words were firm and decisive.

This time, Xiao Shengyin and the others fully understood what a catastrophe meant.

"Influencing time lines? Affecting fate? This is just too..."

They all felt it was all too incredible.

"Wait, that Vengeful Demon..."

They suddenly recalled the Vengeful Demon from earlier.

That Vengeful Demon was scheming for the Power of Time!

And this precisely corroborated Su Yu's words.

If the Vengeful Demon's plot succeeded and he indeed acquired the {Temporal Drift} and gained the Power of Time.

Perhaps he really could adjust the "fate" of others as Su Yu said, delivering an unavoidable and terrifying catastrophe.

Although even if the Vengeful Demon succeeded, there would likely be great limitations.

But what if subspace itself wielded this terrifying Power of Time?

Then it truly would be an {inescapable catastrophe}!
