Chapter 235: Chapter 158: The Despair of the Disparity in Strength (Three Updates)_2
“Yes, he’s a sick Furikontrol freak,” another player’s voice came over the broadcast, “the really twisted kind, even rainbow ponies are controlled substances in his eyes.”
Although they couldn’t understand what a Furikontrol was, all the Cheetahs felt this guy was a tough character.
Then the countdown began.
Soon, the countdown ended.
Realizing the Governor hadn’t responded, the captain sneered and then yelled, “Force field, ready!”
Just when the Cheetahs thought it was all over, the sky twisted again.
The gray-black warships appeared on the horizon, their sides marked with fierce tooth patterns. The familiar pattern excited the Cheetahs, who shouted, “It’s the Predator Fleet!”
“They’re back.”
“Take them down!”
Accompanied by the frenzied voices of the people, the Predator Fleet began to charge up.
Facing these yokels, they started charging their main guns; a dazzling white light burst forth, heading straight for the Star of Destruction in front of them.
Unfortunately, things didn’t go as expected.
Even though the white light hit the Star of Destruction, a tight force field deflected it, preventing the main gun of the warship from causing any damage to the Star of Destruction, not even breaching its defenses.
Realizing the terrifying technological gap between them, the Predator Fleet quickly prepared to jump away, but the force field had already captured them.
Only one Star of Destruction unfolded its force field; the web-like force field instantly caught the entire fleet and shattered it in a moment.
All the crew members were captured at that moment and thrown into special cages.
After swallowing the fleet’s remnants, the Star of Destruction seemed to grow even bigger; the parts clanging inside it like thunder, making the Cheetahs realize the gulf between them.
After digestion, the captain spoke again, “Force field, ready!”
“We surrender!” shouted the Governor.
Having confirmed Lady Tragedy’s location, the Stars of Destruction jumped again, disappearing from the sky, leaving only the unique spatial wrinkles of the jump transition behind.
It didn’t take long for the spatial wrinkles to smooth out, and the sky returned to its former blue. But all the Cheetahs understood that the good old days were probably gone forever.
Leaving the Seventh Ring, the Star of Destruction continued on.
The Fifth Ring had only three civilizations, which upon receiving the news, had united and laid an ambush on the path the players must pass.
When the spatial fluctuations appeared, an overwhelming attack followed.
The closer the races are to the center, the more they are affected by the gods and become more pious.
To defend the dignity of the gods and to demonstrate their faith, they bravely launched an attack on the audacious players who came here, unleashing their strongest firepower against them.
Huge planet-level monsters were also released as weapons; these massive creatures immediately pounced on the Stars of Destruction, eager to destroy them along with everything around them.
The lengthy assault lasted an entire hour; the horrific attacks cleared out a void, destroying nearby satellites, planets, and stars, which were then reduced to fundamental particles in the aftermath of countless energy weapons, spreading throughout the space.
Yet, even so, they were in despair to find that the response of the enemy’s energy level hadn’t decreased at all.
The force shields of the ten Stars of Destruction still held strong; the relentless onslaught did not weaken them in the slightest, not even a ripple appeared, and they would stay unchanged even if the attacks lasted a thousand years more.
The next second, the force field arrived.
Just as Palm Thunder is to an Immortal, the force field is the most basic application of the Star of Destruction.
But faced with the Star of Destruction’s terrifying power, even the simplest force field possessed horrific strength. The nearby warships were directly trapped by the force field.
Due to the force field, the forces between the ship materials instantly dropped to zero. Without molecular forces, the once solid ships disintegrated into dust, and the crew members were captured by the force field and sent to prison.
With the Star of Destruction at the center, a large number of warships began to dissipate; nearby warships were erased as if by an eraser, ultimately turning into nothing.
The enemy fleet’s captain was brought before the captain; sitting in the cockpit, the squirrel player Xiemen Waidao looked at the crocodile before him and couldn’t help saying, “Why are all the enemies here animals?”
“According to the setting, they’re all essentially flora and fauna; it’s just that after humans went extinct, they took over,” said Mukuai1234, rubbing his head next to him.”
“Even the gorillas?”
“The gorillas are gone too.”
“Pity, I quite liked gorillas.”
“What animals don’t you like?”
“Quite a few. But why do you like to rub me so much? And I’ve noticed in the group, it seems Mukuai are especially fond of rubbing squirrels.”
Mukuai 1234 paused in her movements for a moment before speaking after a while, “Well, squirrels have a habit, which is to hide pine cones and other nuts.”
“Yeah, and then?”
“Then they often forget where they’ve hidden them, and come spring, some of these fruits take root, sprout, and turn into new plants. We, Mukuai, quite like those who help plant trees, so seeing you like this, I can’t help but rub you.”
After finishing, Mukuai 1234 paused for a moment and then whispered softly, “Can we meet here again in the future?”
“…We’ll see.”
Xiemen Waidao turned his attention back to the crocodile in front of him and asked, “Tell me, where is Lady Tragedy?”
The crocodile looked proudly at Captain Squirrel and then turned its head toward the ceiling, unwilling to answer her question.
In the face of such stubbornness, Xiemen Waidao simply ordered, “Take him down and beat him.”
A few minutes later, the crocodile captain, bruised and swollen, was brought back but still refused to say a word.
“Take him down and continue the beating.”
After the fourth time, the crocodile that was dragged back finally couldn’t withstand anymore.
Bring in a chair, the crocodile sat down on it, weakly saying, “Go ahead, what do you want to know?”
“Where is Lady Tragedy?”
“I can’t tell you; I can’t bring disaster on my species. You might not care, but we can’t bear the wrath of the gods.”
Looking at him thoughtfully, Xiemen Waidao said, “So what you’re saying is, you can bear our wrath, is that it?”
The crocodile captain didn’t respond, but his attitude seemed to agree with Xiemen Waidao’s point.
Sensing the crocodile’s stance, Xiemen Waidao let out a cold laugh.
“It seems that you have no idea about the power of the Star of Destruction. Prepare the force field, target, the fifth ring.”
The fifth ring was a massive area, but after exchanging information, the other captains agreed to Xiemen Waidao’s proposal, began to disperse, and prepared their force fields.
The immense force field began to envelop the entire range of the fifth ring. All celestial bodies were shrouded in the force field, showing signs of disintegration.
Making the crocodile captain stand beside the porthole, Xiemen Waidao let him witness everything outside and then said, “You can now choose to let me destroy the fifth ring, or you can choose to tell us what we want to know, betting that we can beat Lady Tragedy severely and leave her too afraid to retaliate. Now, make your choice.”
“Demon… you demon!” the crocodile captain cried out in horror.
“You’re comparing him to a demon; isn’t that a bit disrespectful to him?” asked Mukuai 1234.
“Don’t flatter me. Okay, continue increasing the force field’s strength.”
Electric arcs began to form, and some small asteroids started to disintegrate. It would probably not take long for the entire fifth ring to break down into the most primitive soup of particles, then spread evenly across this space.
Seeing his homeland about to be destroyed, the crocodile captain’s defenses finally collapsed.
However, just as he was about to disclose the information, a sword light flew from the horizon.
It was swordlight from the first ring; a Demi-God Powerhouse from the first ring had finally made a move, ready to rescue the crocodile captain.
The sword light slashed through the force field, heading straight for the Star of Destruction, and just when the crocodile captain thought there was hope, the Star of Destruction’s secondary guns appeared for the first time and fired a fierce shot towards the origin of the sword light.
The sword light was torn apart, a dull boom sounded in the distance, and then nothing else appeared, and all was quiet once again.
After the counterattack, Xiemen Waidao continued to shout, “Force field…”
“No need, I’ll tell you everything.” The crocodile captain sat in the chair, defeated.
He knew they had lost completely.
