    Initially, the Dimension Core quaked constantly, incessantly devoured and absorbed by the Golden Ray Armor. However, after Merlin hadmanded the Matrix to devour, the Dimension Core had stopped shuddering.


    Moreover, Merlin had observed that the Golden Ray Armor seemed to have halted as well, maintaining its posture without movement.


    Merlin felt a burst of glee. He did not know what happened to the Golden Ray Armor but guessed that it had something to do with the Matrix.


    “Matrix, how is it?”


    Merlin asked hurriedly.


    Nheless, after a long moment, the Matrix had no updates. Merlin did not know what was happening with the Matrix’s devouring of the Golden Ray Armor but seeing that the Golden Ray Armor was motionless, it looked like the Matrix was doing its part.


    Thus, Merlin was not frantic and started waiting patiently.


    After a lengthy wait, Merlin’s mind resounded with the Matrix’s voice. “Beep, devouring programplete. The Golden Ray Armor’s control program is obtained. Exert control?”


    “The control program is obtained?”


    Merlin was slightly taken aback but soon recovered his wits. Was it not merely a program that had controlled the Golden Ray Armor? Now that the Matrix had sessfully absorbed the program, did it not mean that the Matrix had controlled the Golden Ray Armor?


    With this in mind, Merlin said softly, “Matrix, control the Golden Ray Armor.”


    “Beep, control program of the Golden Ray Armor has been obtained!”


    Merlin’s heart was filled with unparalleled enthusiasm. He was somewhat incredulous now. The Vestigial Tribe’s peak ultimate weapon, the pinnacle of their strength – the Golden Ray Armor that the An civilization was unable to decode despite countless years of research, was now in Merlin’s grasp?


    After gradually calming his emotions, Merlin nced at the Golden Ray Armor, then flew toward it directly.


    As the Golden Ray Armor was under the Matrix’s control, it had stopped absorbing the Dimension Core, lying there quietly. Even when Merlin approached, it did not react. It looked like it was controlled by the Matrix.


    Merlin stretched out a hand and ced it gently on the Golden Ray Armor. A cold sensation blossomed on his fingertip. This was the Golden Ray Armor, a formidable item manufactured by the incessant efforts of the Vestigial Tribe to contend against the Thirty-six Emperors.


    “Matrix, can I wear the Golden Ray Armor?”


    “You can!”


    After the Matrix’s icy voice rang out, Merlin watched as the Golden Ray Armor shone with a dazzling golden ray that enveloped Merlin.


    At the same time, the Golden Ray Armor which looked so solid turned into liquid instantly, wounding around Merlin’s body as if it had grown there in the first ce.


    Soon, the golden glow of the liquid armor surged ceaselessly, swiftly submerging Merlin. Simultaneously, data regarding the Golden Ray Armor sprang up in Merlin’s mind.


    This was data contained in the program devoured by the Matrix. This data exined in detail the Vestigial Tribe’s initial ns. The content of the program left by the Vestigial Tribe was to seek out members of the Vestigial Tribe. Anyone or anything obstructing their way was to be destroyed thoroughly. In addition, the An Dimension Core was meant for the Golden Ray Armor.


    It was just that, in so many years, no one had activated the Golden Ray Armor. At first, the Ans had discovered the Golden Ray Armor within the crystal wall long ago but they were iparably cautious, realizing that once they had activated the Golden Ray Armor, they might be in danger. Therefore, they had never activated it until faced with the threat posed by Merlin where the nine Senators had no other choice but to activate the Golden Ray Armor.


    Now, it was Merlin who had reaped an extreme benefit, receiving an ultimate weapon, the power of which even the Slothful Beast could notpare to.


    Nevertheless, after Merlin carefully studied the data in the program, he learned of its ws.


    This program was merely something the Vestigial Tribe had created back then to control the Golden Ray Armor simply. It could only unleash about sixty, seventy percent of the Golden Ray Armor’s capability.


    Eighty percent of it would result in the mightiest existence below the Thirty-six Emperors. If it was the true Vestigial Tribe who used the Brain of Life to obtain the Golden Ray Armor’s acknowledgment, only then was that a true Golden Ray Warrior.


    Only these Golden Ray Warriors couldpare to the Thirty-six Emperors. As for this program that controlled the Golden Ray Armor, it was limited in unleashing the capability, unable to match up to the Thirty-six Emperors.


    Even so, if Merlin “wore” this Golden Ray Armor now, he could explode with unprecedented power, practically bing the strongest existence below the Thirty-six Emperors.


    “What a treasure I’ve obtained. Still, although the Golden Ray Armor is powerful, it consumes too much energy. Without the An Dimension Core that’s filled with endless energy, I won’t be able to mobilize the Golden Ray Armor at will.”


    Merlin finally understood how important the Dimension Core was toward the Golden Ray Armor. Therefore, Merlin controlled the Golden Ray Armor and began to continue absorbing, devouring the Dimension Core.


    “Rumble.”


    The Dimension Core continued to shudder violently. The An civilization was still unable to change its fate. As the Dimension Core was incessantly absorbed and engulfed by Merlin’s Golden Ray Armor, the An civilization had fallen into a petrifying situation where they had no energy to use for now. This was a greater blow than any other to the An civilization.


    Many Ans were driving their warships, relying on thest bit of power to dash frantically out of the An Dimension, into the Void Zone. This was their only way to survive. After all, the Void Zone had endless energy.


    However, there were even more Ans who could not leave the An Dimension, waiting for their doom in despair.


    “The An civilization isn’t a threat anymore...”


    When he saw this scene, Merlin felt no pity. He knew that the current An civilization was no longer a great threat. The hopeship was controlled by him and the void-level warship could not be manufactured. The Ans in the Void Zone had essentially lost their foundation, and could only rely on the God Alliance.


    To Merlin who had received the Golden Ray Armor, a mere God Alliance was no threat as well.


    “The Matrix... This time, it’s thanks to the Matrix again. Although it’s not the Brian of Life, I’m afraid not even the Vestigial Tribe’s Brain of Life is as wondrous as the Matrix.”


    Merlin had averted who-knew-how-many crises thanks to the Matrix. It was mystical indeed. Furthermore, having absorbed the Vestigial Tribe’s control program made for the Golden Ray Armor, he did not know how the Matrix would change.


    “Bang bang bang.”


    Merlin’s heart leaped. He noticed that the light veil covering the hopeship was now taking hits from a formidable force. The light veil had also relied on absorbing energy from the Dimension Core to maintain its powerful defense.


    By now, the energy was all absorbed by Merlin, and the mysterious light veil was taking such a beating. Thus, it soon shattered. A fat cat of iparable size immediatelynded on the hopeship. It was the ck cat Didimoss.


    “Didimoss?”


    “Merlin? You’re here. I thought that the indestructible light veil turned out to be so fragile. Or was it you who broke the light veil?”


    The ck cat Didimoss’ figure rapidly shrank and it turned into a fat ck cat once more, hopping onto Merlin’s shoulder.


    Merlin scanned with his Mind Power. Although the ck cat Didimoss had only annihted a portion of the dimension-level warships summoned by the Senators, as the Dimension Core had vanished, these warships had lost their supply of power. They dared not attack the ck cat Didimoss, and had left.


    “I guess I did. Currently, there’s nothing in the An civilization that can threaten us.”


    Merlin did not know how to exin. The matter of the Matrix and the Golden Ray Armor was difficult to exin.


    “Merlin, your armor isn’t bad at all. Tsk tsk, it’s a treasure of the Vestigial Tribe, right?”


    The ck cat Didimoss’ sharp ws swiped across Merlin’s Golden Ray Armor gently but left not a single scratch. Naturally, the ck cat Didimoss knew this was not an ordinary armor.


    However, the ck cat Didimoss did not know that this was the Vestigial Tribe’s ultimate weapon. Merlin did not exin as well but looked toward the translucent crystal wall once more. From the data obtained by the Matrix, Merlin knew that this was created by the Vestigial Tribe to leave behind some treasures.


    Thus, Merlin led the ck cat Didimoss, and kept the Slothful Beast. Then, he flew toward the crystal wall.


    “Rattle.”


    Merlinnded in front of the crystal wall. The Golden Ray Armor was too conspicuous. With Merlin’s single thought, the Golden Ray Armor started to transform incessantly like water, turning into an ordinary Wizard robe, draping over Merlin.


    Nevertheless, only Merlin knew that this Wizard robe was transformed from the Vestigial Tribe’s most impressive ultimate weapon – the Golden Ray Armor. Other than the Thirty-six Emperors, no one could threaten Merlin who wore the Golden Ray Armor.


    “What a pretty crystal wall. Merlin, can I eat this crystal wall? It must taste delicious...”


    The ck cat Didimoss licked his lips as his eyes gleamed with desire. Merlin felt powerless. Didimoss’ innate ability was formidable indeed but thanks to this ability, the ck cat Didimoss had turned into a true-blue “chowhound”, wanting to eat everything he saw.


    “You can’t eat this for now. After I’ve retrieved the items within the crystal wall, then you can eat it.”


    Merlin knew that the crystal wall contained immense energy, which might be useful to the ck cat Didimoss. Nheless, he had to retrieve the items left behind by the Vestigial Tribe first.


    “Swish.”


    Merlin brought the ck cat Didimoss into a subspace that looked like a starry sky. In here, ck Star Armors and Gray Light Armors wereid out neatly. Merlin was astounded at this sight.


    Thirty ck Star Armors, and over a hundred Gray Light Armors. With enough Brains of Life enabling people to wear these armors to be ck Star Warriors and Gray Light Warriors, they would be on par with thirty ultimate existences, rtively powerful beings among ultimate existences.


    With such a tremendous force, it was enough to sweep over countless civilizations of the Void Zone!


    It was a shame that Merlin did not have the Brain of Life. The program devoured by the Matrix was created expressly for the Golden Ray Armor by the Vestigial Tribe, and could only control the Golden Ray Armor.


    It was a pity with so many ck Star Armors and Gray Light Armors that could not be utilized. Still, Merlin did not let them go but swept all of them into his Spatial Ring.


    Who knew? One day they might serve a purpose.


    Other than the ck Star Armors and the Gray Light Armors, there was nothing else in this subspace created by the Vestigial Tribe that caught Merlin’s eye. After leaving the subspace, Merlin wielded the Golden Ray Armor’s strength with one wave of his hand, shattering the subspace thoroughly.
