Chapter 388 Awakening; An Ancient Horror

Everything was going as Onana planned.

For 5 years, apart from spending his time observing and studying the Radiation Space Bugs, he also planned on how he would take over this Planet.

Originally, he thought he would need General Aztog's whole fleet to take over the Planet but the more he knew about the Space Bugs, the more measures he devised in which he could easily take over the Planet.

The Radiation Space Bugs were powerful and numerous but they were divided, this was their greatest weakness to him.

'Divide an conquer, that is the ultimate strategy to steamroll through them'.

Once he arrived at the general plan, he also spent time finetuning it for months before he prepared it to the General. In their estimates, nothing would go wrong and they were right, the battle drew to a close in less than 2 hours.

After the upgrade to his core battle companion, Onana's strength increased by leaps and bounds and was why he dominated the Unique Space Bug so convincingly. Once this Bug was taken care of, taking care of the others was easy.

At the moment the Logistic Ship started building them a base, the plan was officially executed successfully, what they didn't expect was a strange voice.

"@#$$%^*&!"

The voice spoke the unknown tongue of the Space Bugs but through a strange mechanism, this voice was translated into the common tongue to them.

"TU, KU, LU…"

The voice reverberated with power.

"IT IS NOT A THOUSAND YEARS YET SINCE I SLEPT".

"WHY ARE YOU WAKING ME UP?!"

Far away from this battlefield, 2 specific Space Bugs also heard the voice. As soon as they heard it, both Unique Space Bugs shuddered as electricity seemed to course through their body, the next moment they prostrated.

"@#$^&!"

"Godfather!"

Planet Titania as a whole suddenly seemed to quieten before the voice of this unknown existence. Instantly after the Unique Space Bugs prostrated, the other Space Bugs also felt it as they embraced the planet surface tightly in respect.

They didn't just do this, they also deactivated the flow of energy in their bodies as their bright red energetic bodies became an inactive gray.

Noticing this through Berserker's sensors, Onana's eyes widened.

'I can barely differentiate them from the Planet surface itself now'.

He was shocked. 'This is the initial state that they were when I just dove into this Planet. It was only when I mined for the Magic Mithril that they awoke and became active'.

The intelligent brain of this Mechanic whirred into action.

'This voice, who is the owner?!' Tension filled his body.

'Just the voice alone made them all prostate and return to inactivity'.

'An existence that can have this much authority over them…'

'It is not a thousand years since I slept, why are you waking me now?' He easily made the connections. 'Is he the reason why they were all inactive before?'

'Who is he? Is he their leader?'

'Does that mean there's a more powerful Space Bug here?'

"OTHER SURVIVORS FROM THE RADIATION?"

"WHO ARE THESE?"

By now, Champion Onana already got his cue. At times, his instincts pushed him into braving danger to search for hidden benefits like it did when it led him to diving into Planet Titania which later proved to be beneficial.

The only problem was that this time, his instincts told him nothing good, his instincts only screamed death at him. 'Not good'.

Champion Onana increased his mech suit's speakers to their maximum level.

He roared. "ESCAPE!"

"LEAVE THE PLANET!"

"LEAVE PLANET TITANIA…, NOW!"

He reacted fast even as he ordered as he channeled more of Berserker's energy into the flight systems of his mech as the mech rose up with speed.

The other Spaceships obeyed his orders and tried to levitate and leave the Planet, but not all of them were as fast, the unknown existence was faster.

CRACK!

A large part of the metal planet cracked open as a gigantic metal tail came from under the Planet. This tail was so fast that it left afterimages behind, in less than a fraction of a second, it arrived before the Logistic Ship.

It was the only Spaceship yet to lift off the Planet surface as it's crew scrambled to board it again, now, it was doomed.

BAM!

The initial impact squeezed the side of the Spaceship.

The next moment, the gigantic tail curled around the body of the Spaceship like a snake as it applied mechanical force and squeezed. Cranking sounds reverberated, in a second, the Logistic Ship became a doomed wreck.

Nobody inside it survived.

"…"

Shock spread through the Naks who were present to witness this scene.

"Do not slow down!"

"Escape!" Onana roared as panic appeared on his face for the first time.

BOOM…!!!

With a great amount of metallic particles flying everywhere, the owner of the voice finally burst out. This was a kilometer long Space Bug Monster, with 6 metal legs, and a long metallic tail that was 3 times longer than the body.

Whoosh!

The tail launched upwards at the escaping vessels.

The Golden Cicada's superior speed enabled it to accelerate to the highest level, exposing both Combat Carriers and the Destroyer. They all activated their defenses but it didn't matter, the one that the tail caught suffered.

The Combat Carrier jerked as the tail punctured through all it's shields and thick hull armor, the next moment, it exploded.

Boom!

The Combat Carrier and all its inhabitants died on the spot.

"…" Shock once again spread through the Nak Navy force.

Hearing its voice alone only give them a small impression.

But this time, seeing it's huge body and it's tail in action again, including feeling it's aura, Champion Onana and his companions finally knew what ancient horror that they awakened.

"A-A Grade A Space Bug?!"

'What have I done?' This question lingered in Champion Onana's mind.

The gigantic red eyes of the Space Bug watched them fly for a few seconds then it finally spoke again.

"I DON'T KNOW ALL THE RACES BEFORE THE RADIATION, BUT NONE OF YOU ARE AMONG THE SPACE-FARING RACES BEFORE THE RADIATION".

"IF YOU ARE NOT, IT MEANS ONE THING".

The Space Bug's huge eyes exploded with power.

"INTRUDERS IN MY TERRITORY!"
