Chapter 185
chapter 0113 part 2
According to Legend, the Strength of the Titan Giants was at least on the level of Thor.
As for this Engineer in front of him, judging by its Qi and Blood, and not counting its Equipment and Spaceship, it was at most a B-Level Superhuman. The so-called B-Level, this Rating List for Superpowered Individuals came from S.H.I.E.L.D.
As an Official Organization operating between ordinary society and the supernatural boundary.
S.H.I.E.L.D. internally divided those strong individuals with Supernatural Abilities into the following tiers based on Threat Level: D-Level Superpowered Individuals, who had not yet broken free from the constraints of a Mortal Husk, had limited destructive capability, limited defense against guns and cannons, and could face death at any time under the Firepower Threat of light weapons. They could be suppressed or even captured by sending out a fully armed Special Forces unit with complete Firepower, after setting up a Plan in advance.
C-Level individuals already possessed Supernatural Abilities with a certain level of Threat. To some extent, they could dodge the Firepower Threat of light infantry weapons.
It would require several special forces teams working together, equipped with targeted Weapons, to capture them.
As for B-Level Superhumans, they could easily perform Scaling Walls and Running on Roofs, split stone and crack rock with a wave of their hand, and could directly penetrate the Armor of fourth-generation Tanks. Besides Artillery Shells, they could easily dodge or even ignore the Threat of small-caliber Rifle Bullets.
The final A-Level Superhumans were beings that could no longer be contained by conventional Military Force.
With just a little effort, they could destroy landmark Architecture like Tall buildings, giant statues, and large bridges. They could even ignore large-caliber Autocannon Ammunition Belts. Aside from ballistic Missiles, the State Apparatus had few means to restrain them.
This classification system for Superhumans wasn't just circulated within S.H.I.E.L.D.; other national organizations also used it. These Numerical Grades classified the Danger Level.
Just like Tang Song's Partner, the Gold Supplier, Magneto of the Brotherhood of Mutants, he had always been on the A-Class Threat List of various countries, and consistently topped the list.
As for above A-Level, so far, only one is publicly known. Coincidentally, he shares the same name as Charles Bishop Weyland.
However, compared to him, Professor Charles's reputation was much more well-known among the High-level Staff of various countries.
After all, between a Billionaire and a powerful Powered Person who could overturn the world, it was obvious which one carried more weight; anyone could figure that out.
Although he felt Charles Bishop Weyland was overly enthusiastic about the Engineer,
Tang Song could somewhat understand his feelings, though. After spending decades of effort searching for something, he had finally found it. Even if it were a sow, it would probably look pleasing to the eye to Charles Bishop Weyland right now.
"Titan Giant? Mr. Weyland, I heard Mr. Vickers say that the founder of the Sacred Shield Brotherhood once fought alongside Deities and jointly repelled alien invaders!"
"If Deities exist, then Titan Giants should also be real, right!?"
Tang Song's words made Charles Bishop Weyland slightly stunned. Then he shook his head: "My research direction in the Brotherhood is not the supernatural domain. West and the others have researched these Myths and Legends more. According to the Brotherhood's records, Deities did exist, but like other Demons, Devils, and various messy existences, they were driven out of Earth!"
"Supernatural Power like Deities and Devils is not within my scope. Compared to these things from Myths and Legends, I am more willing to believe in the Strength of science, Tang."
"As long as we thoroughly research the Technology on this Spaceship, Weyland Industries will dominate Earth for the next few decades!"
Charles Bishop Weyland placed his hand on the Hibernation Pod, his face under the Face Mask flushed with excitement.
David stood silently to the side, a gentle Smile on his face, like a spectator. However, his Gaze kept shifting between Tang Song and Charles Bishop Weyland, wondering what he was thinking.
When the two mentioned Titans, David's Gaze went through the Spaceship's viewport, seemingly staring at something.
…………
There were two Hibernation Pods, one large and one small. The large one contained the Engineer.
On the other side was a silver-gray Hibernation Pod, seemingly no more than two meters tall, with an egg-shaped door half-open.
Jacob looked at David and the other two gathered around the large Hibernation Pod, then walked straight to the small Hibernation Pod and peered inside.
Inside was the same milky-white Nutrient Fluid, filling less than half of the Hibernation Pod! "That Hibernation Pod is mine!"
Jacob, somewhat curious, wanted to reach in and touch the milky-white Liquid inside.
David walked forward and stopped him, his face wearing a gentle but slightly unapproachable Expression.
Jacob awkwardly withdrew his hand, looked at the human-like "Monster" in front of him, and complained, "Do you still need to hibernate? I thought you were like those Robots outside, you could just be shut down!"
"I'm afraid I'm not a Robot," David said, walking to the Hibernation Pod and closing the door.
"My Body Functions are far superior to Ordinary People, but the Artificial Cells and Neurons Inside my Body also cannot withstand thousands of years of long Time,"
David said, stroking the wall of the Hibernation Pod, "I spend most of my Time in this Hibernation Pod in Slumber, waking up once every hundred years!"
…………
Is this the reason the Pyramid Altar Hunt is held every hundred years?
Hearing their conversation, Tang Song remembered the scenes carved on the Relief Carvings inside the Pyramid and felt a sudden realization.
The so-called Ritual Time wasn't based on Astronomical Systems or the Calendar, but merely the waking time of an Android.
David woke up once every hundred years and replaced the Test Subject Alien Queen.
And in the observations of those Ancient Humans, every hundred years, a God-descended Monster would appear at the Pyramid, and only by offering a Living Sacrifice could the Calamity be averted.
They recorded everything through Stone Carvings and warned future generations with stories passed down by word of mouth.
Over thousands of years of Time, it gradually formed into a Myth and Legend.
It's true, Height determines Knowledge!
Tang Song flicked his finger lightly on the wall of the Hibernation Pod, watching the milky-white Liquid ripple inside.
In an Ant's Worldview, the Three-dimensional World is like God's Divine Realm.
A casual action by Humanity could bring Catastrophe to the Ants, forcing them to change their Cognitive Habits.
In the eyes of the Ancient Humans, wasn't David, possessing Technology thousands of years beyond Humanity, also a Deity?
To put it another way, if Humanity exists in Three-dimensional Space, what would Humanity look like in the eyes of a Four-dimensional Being?
Ants on a Plane, or Ignorant Ancient Forebears.
Tang Song looked at the white giant in the Hibernation Pod, somewhat lost in thought. He thought of the transcendent Great Divine Ability Users in the Jambudvīpa World.
These Great Divine Ability Users possessed the ability to reopen Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water, yet they were solely focused on transcendence.
Transcendence, could it be a form of dimensional ascension?
Tang Song's Thoughts directly stimulated the Mark on the True Spirit deep within his Soul, and some New Knowledge unconsciously appeared in his mind.
Regarding such transcendent existences, even the Root Consciousness of Jambudvīpa World couldn't carry too much Information.
Some were even just a wisp of Consciousness, a streak of Light and Shadow.
Tang Song's True Spirit was like a piece of Carbon Paper, rolling over the root of the Jambudvīpa World, imprinting some bits and pieces.
Although some Information was imprinted by him, it was not something he could understand.
……………
"Hibernation Pods are essential things for every Spaceship during Interstellar Travel," David explained to the others after closing the Hibernation Pod. "The Universe is vast, so vast that even with space jump technology, some Interstellar Travel still takes decades or even decades of Time. Hibernation Pods are the only Method to deal with the Passage of Time!"
"Otherwise, any Intelligent Life Form staying on a Spaceship for decades would be enough to cause them an Emotional Breakdown. Some Life Forms, like Humanity, have a normal Lifespan of no more than 120 years. Without a Hibernation Pod, a single Interstellar Travel journey would waste half of their Life's Time!"
Leaving the Hibernation Pod, David led the way, introducing the Spaceship's Structure as they walked.
