But right then, he hesitated. Complicated emotions that belonged to human beings were clearly revealed on the iron mask.
A series of information and data, including the fuel and ammunition of the ‘Descender’, as well as the situation of the battlefield in the periphery, including the battle parameters of the federal army and the imperial
army, the distribution of starships, and so on, popped up in Lu Qingchen’s head.
“I—I should bombard the cockroach without caring about anything else. The entire universe would be peaceful then!”
“However, I am not the natural master of the ‘Descender’. The Giant God Soldier has not fully accepted me yet. If I launch such an intense attack recklessly, it will be a great loss of fuel and ammunition. I’m afraid that it
will be unfavorable for my retreat later.
“Also, ‘Burning Prairie! and ‘Kunlun’, the main warships of the federation, are the closest to Ultimate Rescue’. It is estimated that, after the five supreme fortresses retreat from the battlefield, they will fill in the gaps
quickly and be the first to reach ‘Ultimate Rescue’, board the starship, and seize all the super crystal processors.
“The invaluable super crystal processors passed on from the primeval era could’ve been trophies of the Star Glory Federation and increased the capital for negotiations with the imperium. How could I destroy them so
easily?
“Well, then, then…”
Lu Qingchen hesitated for a long time. The muzzle of the gun was blinking and shivering.
After hesitating for a long time, he gritted his teeth and extinguished the flames on the muzzle, turning the super crystal cannon back into a cold arm.
“Forget it. I’ll let you go for now and let you be happy for another two days.
“Maybe such a ‘splendid victory’ is more beneficial for a cockroach such as yourself to numb your nerves and conceal my real purpose.
“When I find ‘that place’ and swallow another Fuxi and all the things that it protects, I will come back and settle things with a cockroach like you!”
Thinking about that, Lu Qingchen suddenly rose up. The ‘Descender’ of the Giant God Soldier soared into the sky and burnt a transparent hole in the middle of ‘Ultimate Rescue’. He roared and charged into the depths
of the sea of stars!
“The enemy is running away!”
n the depths of the sea of stars, Ding Lingdang, who was riding the broken ‘Great Fire Dragon Sparrow’, was the first to sense the anomaly of the fleet of the Fuxi Clan.
As an invisible ripple spread out from ‘Ultimate Rescue’ to the five supreme fortresses, and then from the five supreme fortresses to the entire fleet, the fleet of the Fuxi Clan was finally freed from the stunned state and
regained part of its vitality.
However, their battle formation had been cut into pieces by the two scalpels of the federal army and the imperial army. Almost all the starships had been surrounded by more than twice the number of enemy starships.
They were caught in a dilemma of fighting alone. It was impossible for the gods to form an effective counterattack even if they were the commanders.
The members of the Sanctuary Alliance realized the same thing and stopped trying to take over the capital city. Instead, they refilled their spiritual shields and power units with all the crystal fuel they had. A large
batch of starships crowded forward as human shields to attract the firepower of the federal army and the imperial army. They covered the five supreme fortresses and gradually retreated from the battlefield.
it was true that, as long as a starship was engaged with the enemy’s firepower and left cracks on the shell, it would be very difficult to enter the four-dimensional space jump state.
However, the five supreme fortresses were all super-large fortresses that were as large as asteroids. Not only were their composite armor unbelievably thick, even their spiritual shields were as thick as a real city wall.
The federal army and the imperial army, which were running out of supplies and strength, would not be able to breach through the solid defense of the enemy for a long time.
Thousands of dazzling flames were spurting out of the five supreme fortresses. They gradually accelerated to the limit of regular sailing and fled toward the periphery of the Empyrean Terminus Sector like five
rampaging asteroids.
In the meantime, more and more starships of the Sanctuary Alliance were launching suicidal attacks at the federal army and the imperium, not to destroy the enemy but to blow themselves up into stone belts to block
the enemy’s pursuit.
Ding Lingdang was burning with anxiety. She gritted her teeth and cut apart the debris one piece after another, piercing through one starship after another. But looking at the fuel and ammunition that she was
consuming, she still felt helpless.
It could not be helped. The difference in strength between the two sides was not large enough for the coalition army of the federation and the imperium to completely annihilate the fleet of the Fuxi fleet.
Or rather, at the beginning of the war, their sole purpose had been to defend the Empyreal Terminus Sector with all their might. They had even been prepared to fight in the alleys of the planet. Nobody had expected
that the war would be reversed and that they would be the winners of the war. Nobody had been prepared to pursue the enemy.
The main brain of the fleet of the Fuxi fleet had been destroyed. But right now, a small head that was as brutal and resolute as the main brain of the fleet had grown out. Nobody would be able to stop Lu Qingchen and
the five supreme fortresses from running away.
nowing that, Ding Lingdang was unwilling to give up. She was planning to chase after the five supreme fortresses for another hundred thousand kilometers, when a streak of gold suddenly soared into the sky and
lunged at her.
BOOM! BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!
n the blink of an eye, the two parties had exchanged over a hundred blows. All the debris within a radius of three to five kilometers was affected by the spiritual flames and turned into burning powder.
“So strong!”
Ding Lingdang’s pupils constricted violently, but the pores all over her body all opened up and spurted out crimson spiritual gas, ready to fight.
The members of the Sanctuary were not best known for their individual combat ability. Even though Ding Lingdang had encountered a few Giant God Soldiers of the Sanctuary just now, it was not very challenging for
her.
However, the giant gold-bearded soldier gave her a completely different feeling. It was an opponent that was truly worth a fight.
The only drawback was that her fuel and ammunition index were both blinking in red. The overall structure of the Great Fire Dragon Sparrow had reached the limit of collapse, too. There was no need for the enemy to
be heavy-handed at all. Even if she unleashed her strongest spiritual flames, it was possible that the Giant God Soldier would be blown apart on the spot.
Besides, although she was surrounded by spluttering electric arcs, there was no intense killing intent, as if she was unwilling to be her enemy.
“Stop chasing. It’s useless. It’s just a waste of fuel. You can’t stop me from retreating.”
A weird ripple suddenly spread out from the golden-bearded giant soldier. It turned into a low and indifferent voice inside the mainframe crystal processor of the Great Fire Dragon Sparrow. The voice was
intentionally suppressed, not willing to let Ding Lingdang recognize its true identity at this moment. “You are the Speaker of Parliament of the federation. I don’t want to kill you, so don’t push me too far. Remember,
your real enemy is not me, but the imperium behind you!
“There’s no way that the five supreme fortresses will be left to you. But Ultimate Rescue’, the flagship of the fleet of the Fuxis, is right there. The trophies on it are precious for the entire federation. Also… whoever you
want to find, don’t waste your time on me. Just do what the Speaker of the Federation should do!
Hardly had the gold-bearded soldier finished his sentence when he gradually vanished from Ding Lingdang’s sight at a lightning fast speed.
“This is…”
Ding Lingdang stared blankly at the precise coordinates sent by the other party.
She had a vague feeling that she had heard the other party’s voice somewhere before. It was even very familiar. She did not even need to analyze it. Her intuition told her that there was nothing wrong with the
coordinates.
But how was it possible? Who was he exactly?
Ding Lingdang, as well as all the soldiers of the federal army and the imperial army, were gazing at the empty, starry universe at the edge of the Empyrean Terminus Sector.
n that place, the surging tides raised by the five supreme fortresses tearing apart the three-dimensional space gradually dispersed in a form as gentle and splendid as an aurora, as if a veil had been draped over the
brutal battlefield. It was a declaration that the battle of the capital city was coming to an end in an unexpected way.
As the five supreme fortresses teleported into the four-dimensional space and vanished into the depths of the sea of stars, the fleet of the Fuxi Clan lost their main brain again and was completely lost and paralyzed.
The coalition army of the federation and the imperium had almost emptied the last magazine, the last barrel, and the last bit of fuel.
Even many soldiers who had been fighting for ten days and ten nights fell to the ground with earsplitting snores after their last nerve was broken.
“Is this… the end?”
Inside the cockpit of Prairie Fire, Bai Kaixin observed the bouncing waves of the five supreme fortresses in the distance and exclaimed in fear.
“At least for now, right?”
On the alloy virus that had been connected to the same tactical command system as Prairie Fire, Boss Bai took a long breath in relief and sat down on the command seat. A smile of relief appeared on his face, but he
could not help but tilt his head to the side.
… The Jade Cauldron Sector, the Yellow Dragon Sector, and the Empyreal Terminus Sector had been engaged in a series of fierce battles. Every battle was perilous, and every battle had been reversed multiple times.
Even the Divinity Transformation Stage Cultivators were exhausted and could not hold on any longer!
“No. It’s not over yet.”
Inside the Great Fire Dragon Sparrow, Ding Lingdang narrowed her eyes and gazed at the direction of Ultimate Rescue. “At least there, it is not over yet.”
“AHHHHHHHHH!”
In the virtual space that was about to collapse, the ocean of data turned into a destructive swirl. The 50% of the data that Lu Qingchen spurted out was like a ferocious beast in the swirl. With the instincts that
corrupted everything, it chased after Li Yao, the mental devil, the Fist King, Little Ming, and Wenwen, making everyone except the Fist King scream miserably.
“This way. It is the data channel that I created when I forced my way in!”
The Fist King waved his iron arm. The tip of his fist actually blasted a golden path above the virtual space.
“Not good. We are tied up by the data turbulences that have completely gone out of control. It will be difficult to get rid of them!”
Xiao Ming and Wen Wen cried in unison.
“You go first. I’ll deal with them!”
Li Yao gritted his teeth and threw the two kids to the ground. Then he turned around and dashed toward the data turbulence.
“Dad!”
Xiao Ming exclaimed.
“Dad!”
Wen Wen screamed.
“Li Yao!”
Even the boxing champion was somewhat moved.
“Leave me alone. Go now. Go now!”
Li Yao roared.
“I really want to go. Just let me go and stop bothering me!”
Looking at his tail that had been tangled by Li Yao, the mental devil was about to cry. “What’s the meaning of this? Are you trying to drag me down with you? What did I do to offend you? Can you spare my life?”
“No problem. Go now. I’ll take care of everything here. I’ll resist the damn ‘Fuxi Data Turbulence’.”
Li Yao looked at the mental devil sincerely, but he tightened his grip on its tail. “Leave me alone. Run away with Xiao Ming and Wenwen. Leave me alone!”.
