Chapter 635: The Sole Weakness
"It's not an issue to grant you a new body, but the Weakness you mentioned is false. You should be aware of the consequences!"
The Heart Demon Clan member's body swayed for a moment. "This Weakness is only known by the Winged Clan Mother Star and me. No one else could possibly know about the Weakness of the Winged Clan."
"This Weakness is... in dark environments, their combat effectiveness drops by at least thirty percent," Su Chen said, bewildered.
There were races that feared the darkness?
In the entire universe, most places were shrouded in darkness. If that were the case, the weakness of the Winged Clan would be greatly magnified. How had they managed to conquer so many planets?
"Do you think I would believe that?" Su Chen's expression darkened, suspecting the Heart Demon Clan of lying.
However, his Psychic Power indicated that the Heart Demon Clan was telling the truth, which was somewhat perplexing.
"Whether it's a lie or not, it can be easily verified. You should be able to see the situation on the Winged Clan Mother Star. There, you won't find a single spot of darkness," the Heart Demon Clan member asserted confidently.
Su Chen was half-skeptical but decided to check the map of the Winged Clan Mother Star.
To his astonishment, upon examination, he couldn't find a single shadow in any part of the planet. It seemed like a world completely isolated from darkness, with a faint glow everywhere."How is this possible? Where there's light, there must be darkness. A planet can't be devoid of darkness," Yun Ru exclaimed in disbelief.
Not only her, but the other Super Soldiers had also never imagined such a peculiar planet could exist.
"Heh, this is the flaw in the Winged Clan Mother Star's creation of the Winged Clan. It sought perfection, but the result was far from perfect. They are incredibly powerful in the light but rather weak in the dark," the Heart Demon Clan member's voice carried a hint of mockery.
The best way to verify this result was to create a dark environment and observe the Winged Clan Divine Envoy's power decrease. Even a Large Galaxy-level powerhouse could fall to a lower level with a thirty percent decrease in power.
Creating a dark environment involved blocking out the sunlight from above.
Su Chen's first thought was to use a Weather Control Device. It could generate thunderstorms that could block out sunlight, but the lightning it produced also emitted light, making it an imperfect solution. Moreover, the Weather Control Device could only be used once a day, so it wasn't an option today.
Since all Superweapons were currently unusable, Su Chen had to find another solution.
Several suggestions were proposed by the Super Soldiers, but all were rejected as none could create a completely dark environment. Even a hint of light would severely diminish the desired effect.
"Heart Demon Clan, isn't the Winged Clan Divine Envoy himself emitting light? Even if we create a dark environment, won't his power remain unchanged?" Yun Ru asked.
"You can rest assured on this point. Unless his light can illuminate the entire dark space, his power decline is inevitable. If you still doubt it, you can ask the Grim Reaper; he should have some knowledge about the Winged Clan."
"Heart Demon Clan is correct. When Protoss fought against the Winged Clan, it was either during the day on a planet or within the range illuminated by a star. I used to wonder about it, but now it makes sense. This must be a limitation of the Winged Clan."
A figure appeared in the Command Room, wearing a rather revealing purple outfit and a mischievous smile on his face. His eyes were a faint purple, and there was a mysterious mark on his forehead.
"This is the body of a Protoss?" Su Chen was curious; this was his first time seeing a real Protoss.
"How do I look? Isn't this body quite dashing?" Les turned around in place, wearing a proud expression.
"Well, the body of a Protoss does seem to hold valuable research potential. After this is over, would you consider cooperating with my research?" Yun Ru's eyes lit up, and her gaze on Les was practically devouring.
This was what she had truly coveted: his body!
Seeing the desire in Yun Ru's eyes, Les suddenly became serious. "Ahem, even though my cells can be cloned, this body can only withstand one battle. It's a disposable body."
Su Chen was most interested in his strength. "How powerful is it?"
"It should reach the level of the ninth stage of a Small Galaxy," Les replied.
Su Chen raised an eyebrow. This was just a clone, yet it could empower Les to such levels. It was worth noting that this was only one-third of Les's consciousness.
It truly was a testament to the strength of a Constellation-level expert. Even in this state, they still possessed such formidable power.
"Les, do you have a way to create a dark environment?"
"That's simple; my Domain can achieve that."
Les had always existed as consciousness. Even when borrowing Zhu Hui's body, he hadn't demonstrated much combat power. Su Chen was quite curious about Les's fighting style.
"The Winged Clan Divine Envoy is currently trapped. I'll have someone take you there to create a dark environment. The rest is up to you."
Les nodded, and as he was about to leave the Command Room, Su Chen added lightly, "Les, don't even think about running away. You should know that I always keep my word, and you wouldn't want to know the consequences."
Les's body hesitated for a moment, then continued walking out.
To be honest, Su Chen didn't fully trust Les. How could an old schemer who had been hiding for so many years submit so easily?
Even though Les appeared to have their best interests at heart, Su Chen still held some reservations about him. His earlier words were merely intended to dispel any lingering doubts Les might have.
After all, Les was now at the ninth stage of a Small Galaxy, and once he left Earth, Su Chen would have no means to control him.
Of course, Les wasn't foolish. He would likely understand that even if he left Earth, with his individual strength, he might not even make it out of the Solar System before running out of energy.
Small Galaxy-level experts could roam space, but that was merely for basic survival; they couldn't freely explore the cosmos.
True interstellar dominance required at least a Large Galaxy-level expert, who possessed incredible speed in space, nearly reaching the speed of light.
It wasn't clear whether Su Chen's words had an impact, but Les was brought to the vicinity of the Winged Clan Divine Envoy by a Chronolegionair Troops member. Afterward, the Chronolegionair Troops member left, and Les extended his hands. A dark power emanated from his body, completely shrouding the area within the Tenfold Annihilation's range.
