Su Yu, seeking to restore his Fifth-Order strength, unleashed his power and rapidly gained Fourth-Order while slaughtering numerous brain monsters. This sudden surge of power drew the attention of both the remaining monsters and the human warriors. Declaring his allegiance to humanity, Su Yu transformed his monstrous form into a vaguely human shape and proceeded to exterminate all the brain monsters on the battlefield. Misunderstood as an "Alien Traitor," Su Yu decided to join the human faction to continue his strength enhancement.

"...My friend, humanity extends a warm welcome to your joining!"

The human warriors initially harbored reservations about Su Yu joining their ranks; after all, Su Yu’s current appearance was undeniably monstrous. However, Su Yu discreetly employed the Book of Narrative to subtly alter a portion of their established perceptions, leading them to naturally consent to his inclusion. The outcome of modifying perceptions via the Book of Narrative was such that their thoughts originated from their own hearts, completely independent of any Spiritual Power manipulation or brainwashing. Indeed, the workings of a sentient mind are inherently complex and often elusive. These seasoned human warriors, possessing extensive experience battling extraterrestrial beings, had encountered numerous "Alien Traitors" before, and had even fought alongside such individuals in the past. Their initial impulse to refuse Su Yu stemmed primarily from the overwhelming magnitude of his strength, which instilled a degree of apprehension within them. Yet, witnessing Su Yu’s seemingly genuine demeanor and recalling his significant contributions in dispatching numerous Brain Demons, extending an invitation to join them appeared to be a logical and reasonable course of action. Su Yu’s narrative manipulation in this instance avoided any catastrophic logical inconsistencies. In truth, the limitations imposed by the Book of Narrative are minimal; unless one were to write with reckless abandon and utter disregard for coherence, inducing a logical collapse would be exceptionally difficult. The primary reason Su Yu had previously encountered a logical breakdown so soon after adopting this ability, nearly costing him his life, was due to the sheer absurdity of his written content. Attempting to traverse the Narrative Layer with a single, ungrounded narrative sentence was a guaranteed path to failure. Now, merely making minor adjustments to the perceptions of these human warriors presented no inherent difficulties. Consequently, Su Yu and his newfound comrades proceeded to board the transport vessel bound for the orbiting mothership, en route to their next engagement on the battlefield. "My friend, might I inquire about your name?" "Su Yu." "Su Yu? A fine name, it sounds thoroughly human!" "Hehe..." "Su Yu, while your appearance is somewhat unusual, the fact remains that you possess a humanoid form. Perhaps there is a thread of human genetics within you. Rest assured, our Empire has always embraced inclusivity, accepting numerous human variant subspecies such as yourself..." The warriors displayed considerable warmth and enthusiasm, striking up a conversation with Su Yu during their journey aboard the transport ship. Eventually, they even formally bestowed upon Su Yu the designation of a human subspecies, leaving him momentarily speechless. After all, his current physique was unequivocally monstrous. However, this monstrous form originated from a mutated human brain; therefore, classifying it as a human subspecies might indeed be accurate. Even a genetic analysis would likely reveal traces of human genetic coding. Through this discourse and the diverse applications of Su Yu’s Mind Reading ability, coupled with his comprehension of existing narrative settings, he managed to acquire further intelligence regarding the Human Empire. Within the collective memories of these warriors, the Human Empire had existed long before the universe itself came into being, a civilization of immense antiquity and grandeur. Following the universe’s genesis, the Human Empire swiftly asserted dominance over half of the galaxy’s territories, cultivating a civilization of unparalleled brilliance. Nevertheless, the Human Empire was not the sole pre-universal civilization; a multitude of monstrous alien entities also predated the cosmos. These alien beings manifested alongside the universe’s birth, co-opting the remaining half of the cosmic domains. These extraterrestrial monstrosities were fundamentally dissimilar to humans, harboring an innate and unyielding malevolence towards humankind, and were driven by an unwavering desire to annihilate humanity entirely. Humans, in turn, felt a profound revulsion towards these aliens, yearning for their ultimate eradication. Thus commenced a monumental cosmic war, unfolding across eons, its scale dwarfing comprehension. The Human Empire and the alien monstrosities engaged in perpetual conflict for untold ages, with the sheer number of lives extinguished rivaling the countless stars scattered across the universe. This titanic struggle was destined to persist until the absolute annihilation of one of the contending factions. The specific theater of war where Su Yu now found himself was a planet where a tactical detachment from the Human Empire had been deployed. Their mission was to eradicate a recently emerged alien species known as the "Brain Demons". Unlike humanity, the vast array of alien species is virtually limitless, with new extraterrestrial forms appearing with relentless frequency. Whenever a novel alien species surfaces, the Human Empire dispatches its forces to eliminate them, thereby impeding the development of these nascent civilizations into formidable powers. The aliens themselves exhibit a staggering diversity in form and capability, their strength varying immensely. Among them, three paramount alien races stand out: the Spirit Beast Clan, the Ancient Mechanical Clan, and the Star God Race. Each of these possesses immense power, wielding potent Spiritual Power or advanced technology, commanding billions of river systems, and posing substantial threats to humanity, frequently instigating large-scale conflicts that result in the destruction of countless star systems. Beyond these three dominant alien factions exist various intermediate and lesser races, each possessing unique and formidable strengths. These intermediate and lesser races are in a constant state of evolution, striving to ascend to the level of the three supreme races. Beneath even the weaker races are the continuously emerging new alien species. These typically begin in a state of weakness but hold the potential to evolve into terrifying civilizations comparable to the mightiest three. The Human Empire’s constant campaign of elimination against these newly discovered aliens is a strategic imperative, aimed at preventing the rise of new dominant powers. However, it is important to note that the Human Empire does not engage in indiscriminate slaughter of all alien life forms.

Should they encounter so-called "Alien Traitors," under favorable circumstances, the Empire possesses the authority to integrate these extraterrestrial beings, even extending recognition as fellow humans.

Within the Empire's framework, the definition of "human" is remarkably adaptable.

Factors such as life forms, genetic makeup, and the composition of Spiritual Power present no insurmountable barriers.

Even if an alien entity were to manifest as a mere rock or an ethereal mass, as long as it harbors benevolent intentions towards humankind, it would be classified as a "Sub-human."

This designation signifies a novel human bloodline variant, distinguishing it from extraterrestrial origins.

It appears that Su Yu now aligns with this categorization, likely to be officially recognized as a Sub-human and thus welcomed into the Human Empire.

After all, he still maintained a humanoid physique, albeit one with peculiar characteristics.

Indeed, upon Su Yu's arrival aboard the mothership in orbit, having traveled via a transport vessel, he was met by the ship's commander.

The commander, a formidable Fourth-Order cultivator, gave Su Yu a cursory examination. Following a review of the engagement report, Su Yu was promptly granted the status of a Sub-human.

Furthermore, the commander explicitly informed Su Yu that his inherent human genes, with minor cosmetic adjustments to diminish his unusual appearance, would render him indistinguishable from a pure human.

Gazing upon his own monstrously altered form, Su Yu gained a profound new perspective on the very notion of "pure human."

Having bestowed this human identity upon Su Yu, the commander immediately initiated the mothership's departure, charting a course for the subsequent star system to confront and eradicate another emerging alien species.

Naturally, Su Yu accompanied them, viewing this as an invaluable chance to replenish his strength by absorbing the alien Spiritual Power.

Very shortly, through a swift hyperspace jump, the mothership materialized in a different star system.

From the mothership, a transport vessel was dispatched, deploying a tactical force numbering 300,000 individuals onto a planet inhabited by an alien race within the star system.

And the individual appointed as the commander for this crucial mission was none other than Su Yu.
