Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic-Chapter 1097 - 553: The Eerie Oming River System

Su Yu saw that in that Constant Star System, the Constant Star had indeed, as previously thought, transformed into a white dwarf star, cooling rapidly.

However, its state was exceedingly bizarre.

Su Yu could see that the state of that white dwarf star was not "continuous" but kept "jumping."

Just like a person, one second they are twenty years old, the next second without any intermediate process, they jump to twenty-one years old, and then jump to twenty-two years old.

The white dwarf star Su Yu saw was in such a state.

With the Star Tower’s scanning precision, this change could be accurately detected.

It seems that every moment, it is losing a portion of "Time."

This is merely Su Yu’s speculative conclusion; in fact, Su Yu did not observe any Power of Time.

What the white dwarf star is losing might not even be Time, but something else that appears like the loss of Time.

"No wonder this River System is so dark, now it makes sense..."

If all the Constant Stars in the River System lost Time and turned into dim white dwarf stars, no wonder this River System is so dark.

Moreover, what shocked Su Yu wasn’t really the "loss of Time" phenomenon of this Constant Star.

Rather, it was the few planets within this Constant Star System.

Normally, when a Constant Star evolves into a white dwarf star, it would first go through the red giant and even supernova stages.

Such violent evolution would disrupt the environment of an entire Constant Star System, making it uncertain whether planets could survive.

But this white dwarf star has a bizarre loss of Time phenomenon that might have skipped those violent stages and directly turned into a white dwarf star.

So the few planets in the Star System are still intact and existing.

Those planets are also experiencing similar Time loss phenomena.

For a Constant Star to evolve into a white dwarf star, it would take tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of years.

If the Constant Star and planets lose Time in the same way, then these few planets have also evolved for tens of billions or hundreds of billions of years.

Therefore, there are no artificial structures left on the planets.

Even if this was once a Colonial Star of the Empire, where the Empire established various advanced facilities.

But after so many years of evolution, they no longer exist.

Only lifeless, silent planets remain, floating quietly in orbit, slowly rotating, with even their self-rotation and orbital rotation almost halted, occasionally leaping a distance, giving a faint yet eerily desolate impression.

However, to say there are no signs of life on these planets might not be the case.

Through Star Tower scanning, Su Yu saw those planets are inhabited by life, and they are humans.

Only... they’re all dead! All are corpses!

Buried within the strata of those planets are numerous human corpses, roughly estimated to be in the tens of billions.

These corpses died an unknown period ago and have sunk into the strata with geological changes.

Logically inferred, these corpses were once the Imperial Human residents on these planets.

They were suddenly struck by cataclysm, died abruptly, and after death, their corpses sunk into the strata with geological changes.

Curiously, even though all human structures have disappeared with planetary evolution, not even a fossil can be found.

These human corpses remain intact, almost lifelike.

However, these corpses have undergone such prolonged evolution, transforming into fossil-like entities, some even metallic...

"Metallic transformation?"

Su Yu was startled and thought of the "Oming" metal.

This metal was the result of the "Oming" Alien Civilizations race transforming after death.

How similar it is to the current human corpses?

"Is this the process of the birth of the Oming metal?"

"Now it’s humanity’s turn to become metal?"

Su Yu speculated.

Perhaps in the unknown ages past, the Oming Civilization encountered similar events, and their entire River System began losing Time.

This loss was so intense that it allowed Constant Stars to evolve into white dwarf stars in a short period, something no normal biological entity could withstand.

Thus, the Oming Clan’s lifespans were exhausted in an instant, leading to mass extinction.

For unknown reasons, their bodies underwent metallic transformation, becoming Oming metal, which eventually attracted the Empire to exploit it.

Now, it’s humanity’s turn.

Perhaps after some time, when the Time loss phenomenon here ceases, another Alien Star will discover this place, harvest the metal formed from human corpses, and begin the next cycle.

"Why does this place resemble a trap, a breeding ground?"

Su Yu was secretly alarmed, finding this River System intensely eerie.

He made up his mind never to enter the Oming River System.

Otherwise, considering the conditions in this Star System, he fears he might become unfortunate too.

Su Yu wasn’t confident in resisting such power affecting the entire River System.

If he entered it, he feared he would also lose a significant amount of Time.

Even though Su Yu has now achieved Fifth-Order, and even possesses Sixth-Order Level strength, along with Evil God Undying.

Theoretically, at his current level, Su Yu should no longer be limited by biological lifespan.

But Su Yu has never truly tested it and doesn’t know exactly how long he can live.

If he suddenly loses billions of years, directly leaping to a state one billion years old, it’s hard to predict what will happen.

Seeing the situation within the Oming River System, it’s unlikely to be optimistic.

The Human Empire occupied the Oming River System back then, surely having many powerful beings stationed there. Where are those powerful beings now? Could they have died too, becoming part of those corpses?
