Chapter 8: The Oath of Judah Unleashes Its Power

As Theresa swallowed the pill, it traveled down her esophagus and into her stomach. The corrosive gastric acid dissolved its outer shell.

The dormant Super Transformation Factor within was awakened and activated by the stomach acid. Ignoring the digestive fluids, it permeated the capillary walls and began coursing through Theresa's bloodstream, surging toward every limb and organ.

Meanwhile, the dormant Power of The Permanence within Theresa's body was also activated upon encountering the Super Transformation Factor. This power amplified the factor, causing it to consume Theresa's nutrients as it divided, multiplied, and integrated into her DNA, initiating an unknown transformation within her body.

The first sign of this transformation was the awakening of Vishnu's insatiable hunger. Theresa suddenly felt ravenously hungry, her eyes turning slightly red as she glared at the defeated Antimatter Legion soldiers.

"Ugh... I'm so hungry," Theresa groaned, clutching her stomach. Dan Heng and March 7th froze, belatedly realizing that since Theresa had been rescued by the Astral Express, she had consumed nothing but Himeko's coffee.

"We apologize for our oversight," Dan Heng said. "We forgot you haven't had proper food in a while. Please bear with us until we reach the Space Station. We'll resolve your food situation then."

Himeko apologized to Theresa, clearly embarrassed, while March 7th offered an awkward smile, admitting she had forgotten as well.

"I'm starving!" Theresa exclaimed, her eyes reddening as she could no longer endure the gnawing hunger. "I feel like... I could even eat those monsters!" With a wave of her hand, the Oath of Judah transformed back to its original form and materialized in her grasp.

"Oath of Judah, unfold! Celestial Judgment!" Theresa roared, slamming the Oath of Judah into the ground. To the astonishment of the Nameless, a massive sword array materialized, a magnificent magic circle appearing at its center. A tremendous suction force erupted.

The terrified, shrieking monsters of the Antimatter Legion were pulled into the array and shredded to pieces by its blades.

The Antimatter Cores were absorbed by the magic circle at the array's heart, converted into black-gold Imaginary Internal Energy, and transferred to Theresa through the Oath of Judah.

Theresa reveled in the surge of power. The Vishnu Super Transformation Factor within her body, now fueled by abundant energy, began to proliferate wildly, initiating a fusion evolution of her cellular structure.

Before the astonished eyes of Welt and the others, the Space Station, once teeming with the Antimatter Legion, was completely devoured by Theresa's unleashed sword array.

Fortunately, Theresa's control over the sword array prevented its suction force from affecting the Nameless. Everyone breathed a collective sigh of relief and watched as the colossal formation mercilessly crushed and devoured the Antimatter Legion within its reach.

"Uncle Yang, I had no idea Theresa was this powerful!" March 7th exclaimed, awestruck as she watched the sword array frenziedly slaughter and consume the Antimatter Legion. "She's practically worth the entire team's combat power combined!"

Welt nodded. "This is the power of the Oath of Judah. It's the Eleventh Divine Key, crafted 50,000 years ago from the Core of the Herrscher of Binding."

"According to my research, this Divine Key possesses a myriad of bizarre and wondrous functions. It's a priceless weapon left behind by the Previous Civilization."

"Moreover, it's rumored to have many undiscovered modes, making it incredibly versatile."

Welt explained to the group, who gazed curiously at the Oath of Judah's devastating performance.

With a sharp crack, the sword array unleashed by the Oath of Judah rapidly annihilated the Antimatter Legion in the compartment.

The sword array began to retract and vanish, and the Oath of Judah closed shut. Theresa licked her lips in satisfaction. The terrifying hunger that had plagued her moments before had vanished; the Super Transformation Factor within her had successfully integrated.

Now it was time to see how Theresa's awakening would progress. After all, Vishnu represented the Honkai Beasts that devoured everything. As long as there was something to consume, it would continue to grow!

Theresa could finally shed the "Oath of Judah Launcher" label. She refused to be helpless without her weapon, relying solely on the Oath of Judah for combat.

"Ugh, I'm full! I'm not hungry anymore!" Theresa happily declared, retracting the Oath of Judah.

"Hey, Theresa, didn't your cross just obliterate the entire Antimatter Legion? What does that have to do with you being full?" March 7th asked, puzzled, as the Nameless approached.

"Well, I've been drifting through space for so long that my body's energy reserves were almost completely depleted just to keep me alive. Now that I've replenished them by consuming these monsters, I don't need to eat regular food for a while!" Theresa explained to the Astral Express crew.

Dan Heng pondered Theresa's words. To be honest, he had never encountered such a peculiar method of sustenance before.

"Everyone can rest assured," Welt said. "I know Theresa inside and out. She's the most compatible wielder of this divine key, and her combat prowess is not to be underestimated."

"Next, we'll search for the Space Station personnel. We'll split into teams: Theresa, Little March, and Dan Heng, you'll form one group, while Himeko and I will take the other."

Welt began assigning tasks, and everyone nodded in understanding before splitting up to search the Space Station for survivors.

Whoosh! Boom!

"Open fire! Alternate attacks!" A slender, dark-skinned man with white hair barked orders at the guards. He personally joined the fray, his greatsword crackling with lightning as he slaughtered Antimatter Legionnaires.

Meanwhile, March 7th, Dan Heng, and Theresa began searching other sections of the station for survivors. They soon discovered a group of guards and Arlan desperately holding their ground against the relentless Antimatter Legion assault.

"Time to get serious!" March 7th leaped into the air, nocked an arrow, and channeled her ice-elemental Path power into a swarm of teddy bear-like projectiles that surged toward the Legion, freezing them solid.

Seizing the opportunity, Dan Heng swung his Cloudpiercer Spear in a sweeping arc, repelling a wave of Antimatter Legionnaires and relieving the pressure on Arlan and the guards. They quickly retreated, glancing gratefully at the Nameless.

"Oath of Judah, deploy!"

"Pursuit Mode engaged!"

As Theresa spoke, the Oath of Judah slammed heavily onto the ground before Arlan and the others' astonished eyes, unfurling into its full form. Thirteen Soulium spears, each trailing a chain, shot towards the Antimatter Legion.

Their vaunted defenses crumbled like tofu before the Oath of Judah, offering no resistance as the spears shredded and devoured them. The energy from the annihilation flowed through the Oath of Judah and into Theresa's body.

Seeing the beautiful Theresa in action, the young guards blushed crimson, feeling ashamed for retreating in front of such a young girl.
