146 The Spoils Of War And The Shock Of The Ancient One!

The spaceship, once seamless, suddenly collapsed inward, revealing an entrance that adjusted perfectly to Russell’s current body size.
He walked through a passage stretching hundreds of meters before entering the interior of the spaceship.
At that moment, even Russell—always composed—was stunned.
Because what he saw wasn’t a high-tech cabin at all.
Instead, it was mountains, rivers, plains… even snow-capped peaks and a distant sea thousands of kilometers away!
This wasn’t some ecological simulation system—it was a complete, living world.
An ecological world far larger than the entire solar system.
A gentle female voice sounded:
[Welcome back, Master.]
[Do you need me to convert the ecosystem for you?]
[The Worldship contains more than 13,142 planetary ecosystems. If you’re not satisfied, I can restore the original cabin appearance—but it may feel a little monotonous.]
The Revenge Angel stood wide-eyed in shock.
Over ten thousand ecosystems? That was insane.
And how could this even be changed at will?
She could see with her own eyes that everything here was real matter, not a holographic projection.
Russell paused for a few seconds before speaking.
“Randomly display three ecosystems.”
[Understood, Master…]
[Ecosystem retrieval in progress…]
[World Engine activated. Material decomposition… complete.]
[Dimensional compression successful.]
[Blueprint rendering… complete.]
[Space expansion complete.]
[Material reconstruction… complete.]
As the ship’s calm voice narrated, Russell watched the mountains, rivers, and plains break down into their most basic particles. The entire space then collapsed into a two-dimensional plane—like a giant, living painting.
Then, with another flash, the space expanded again. The false image became real, solid, and alive once more.
The plants, landscapes, even the color of the sky were completely different from before.
What an overwhelming technological marvel.
Russell was certain—even with all their knowledge across countless parallel timelines, the Remnants could never achieve something like this with technology alone.
Galactus truly lived up to being a scientist who had survived the previous universe’s destruction and the birth of this one. This level of technological mastery was nothing short of miraculous.
It was just a pity his mind seemed… a little unstable. If not, this guy would have easily stood at the pinnacle of all existence.
The system then displayed the other two ecosystems, the transitions so seamless there wasn’t a single flaw.
Russell couldn’t help but think—if Professor X and Magneto saw this, they’d lose their minds with envy.
Those two had gone to great lengths to build a mutant nation on a tiny island, treating it like some priceless treasure.
If they could live in an ecological world thousands of times larger than Earth, they’d probably fall to their knees and call him “Dad.”
But Russell had no interest in being anyone’s savior.
He planned to use this as his personal portable dimension.
After all, the massive ship could be folded and compressed in space. Anything and anyone inside would shrink in sync, keeping the same relative scale.
That meant he could store the entire worldship inside his own pocket dimension.
After testing, Russell confirmed its defensive and offensive capabilities.
It could easily withstand attacks on the level of a Skyfather—and its main gun had enough power to annihilate a supermassive red giant.
However, even those two features weren’t as impressive as the ecological world itself.
This place was far more suitable to serve as a true home.
Not long after, Russell left the spaceship, leaving the Revenge Angel inside.
With a mere thought, the ship detected his biological signal and began to shrink.
In moments, the vessel—once larger than an entire star system—folded down until it was no bigger than the Moon.
That was the absolute limit.
If it weren’t for the pure spatial folding technology, compressing something to this degree would have created a catastrophic black hole.
For now, the ship’s self-contained spatial folding was perfectly stable.
The next moment, Russell began crafting a spell—meticulously constructing a pocket dimension for the first time.
Layer upon layer of spatial barriers wrapped around the ship.
When they fully sealed, more than thirty million dimensional planes had been created.
With a wave of his hand, the pocket dimension shrank into a crystal sphere no bigger than a ping-pong ball before vanishing into his palm.
With his final piece of loot collected, Russell’s body flashed—and in the blink of an eye, he was in the upper attic chamber of Kamar-Taj.
This was Galactus’ style of spatial teleportation: fast, simple, and direct.
If Russell hadn’t locked onto the location at the time, the other party would have fled to the far end of the universe with ease.
However, there was one thing it couldn’t match about Kamar-Taj’s portals—they were far more versatile, able to cross between dimensions and even timelines.
That was something Galactus’ teleportation could not do.
In the quiet pavilion, the Ancient One—eyes closed in meditation—suddenly snapped awake.
She could sense that the defensive barriers of Kamar-Taj had been bypassed completely. A form of spatial teleportation she did not recognize, and not recorded in any Sling Ring technique, had just occurred.
Someone had invaded Kamar-Taj—and the signal came from right here!
How arrogant.
Her eyes snapped open, sharp as blades, and her mystical sight prepared to pierce straight into the intruder—
Crack!
Russell casually shattered her probing attack, took a seat in a nearby chair, and smiled.
“You’re very alert, Ancient One.”
He smirked. “Though your attack power is a little weak…”
The sharpness in her gaze faded, and she let out a slow breath.
But she was still surprised.
Not only had this man easily bypassed the protective space of Kamar-Taj without using a Sling Ring, but he had also crushed her next spell with almost insulting ease.
That wasn’t just any spell—it was a space-slicing technique that could bisect even a high-ranking demon from Hell in an instant.
It was her emergency trump card.
And he had snuffed it out without effort.
There was no doubt—this man was far stronger than she had expected.
And perhaps… that was a good thing.
The Ancient One nodded seriously.
“You’re better than I thought. It seems you really can complete the time anchor point.”
“By the way,” Russell said casually, “I came here to tell you—it’s already done.”
“…It’s… what?”
The Ancient One blinked, stunned. “What did you just say?”
Russell looked slightly puzzled. “The time anchor point is complete. Is there a problem?”
She was shaken.
In her mind, completing it within a decade would already have been an incredible success. Needing centuries wouldn’t have been surprising.
Yet he had done it in only three months—without even staying on Earth the whole time.
It was unbelievable.
She exhaled slowly, the tension in her face easing into a rare smile.
“I didn’t expect you to finish so quickly. This is truly good news.”
“You know, there’s a powerful being in the Single Realm of my universe. Before this, I feared an accident might happen.”
Russell grinned. “That won’t happen. Even without the time anchor point, nothing could touch me.”
“No, no, no,” the Ancient One said, shaking her head firmly. “Even if you’ve reached the peak of a Skyfather’s level and have more raw power than I do, you may not fully understand what a Single Body truly is. In the real universe, such a being is virtually invincible—unless they encounter certain special existences. Otherwise, even a Skyfather could be nothing more than an ant to them.”
Russell shrugged, speaking in a calm, almost casual tone.
“You misunderstand, Ancient One. What I mean is—I am that Single Body.”
The room fell into an instant, heavy silence.
The Ancient One, about to speak, froze mid-breath—like an insect trapped in amber.
