1018 Start of the War

In the universe, the High Nobles’ fleet, inside the commanding spacecraft.

“Ai’er, are there any movements from the Golden Emperor Beetle and the King Zergs?” Komodo asked.

“Not yet. They’re very well-hidden.” Ai’er pursed her lips and smiled, looking very beautiful. “Of course, that’s what they think. In reality, I’m aware of all their movements.”

“That’s good.” Komodo nodded. “King Zergs are not of real concern. The only one we have to pay close attention to is the Golden Emperor Beetle. As long as we catch Hong Dali and make him control the Golden Emperor Beetle, hahaha, we’ll be able to have whatever we want then!”

Golden Emperor Beetle. Its entire body was full of priceless materials.

Now that there was a chance to capture it alive, anyone in the situation would go crazy.

Just as Komodo was thinking of carving some Golden Emperor Beetle for eating once he captured Hong Dali, Ai’er suddenly said quietly, “Silver Hair, there’s something happening on Earth’s side. The twenty King Zergs that entered the atmosphere have come out!”

“Hm? The King Zergs are out?” Silver Hair hurriedly asked, “What are they doing?”

Once they heard that something was happening on Earth, the rest rushed forward. Even Bin Hong, who had been sleeping this entire time, lazily sat up and listened to the updates.

“They’re gathering with the other King Zergs. The Golden Emperor Beetle is moving too.” Ai’er sounded very serious.

The King Zergs and the Golden Emperor Beetle. They were the main battle force of Earth. Their large-scale movement definitely suggested that they were preparing for the start of a war.

“Relay the order. Prepare for battle!” Komodo’s eyes lit up. “Lockdown all signals around New Earth. Turn on the energy field. Prevent any spacecrafts from performing Space Oscillations. Don’t let Hong Dali escape! This time, our mission goals are to annihilate the King Zergs and completely surround the Golden Emperor Beetle. After that, we will aim at the New Earth with our main cannons. We will force Hong Dali to surrender!”

“Yes, Sir!”

“Yes, Sir!”

“Yes, Sir!”

“Yes, Sir!”

In an instant, all the soldiers in the commanding spacecraft responded and relayed the orders.

Soon, the High Nobles feet in the universe began to fall in. They adjusted their main cannons to point them away from the New Earth. After all, although the New Earth was worthless in their eyes, they knew that Hong Dali would fight to the death if the New Earth was bombed. In that case, there would be no chance to capture him alive.

…

In space, countless Zergs quickly gathered.

Amongst the Zergs, there were both ordinary Zergs and the newly evolved Zergs that Hong Dali wanted.

Apart from that, there were countless mutated Zergs. These mutated Zergs were originally prepared to produce King Zergs. However, as they were in a rush, evolution was not possible now. Hence, they existed only as cannon fodders…

Of course, Hong Dali was a considerate person. Hence, while he sat on the back of the Golden Emperor Beetle, his lackeys all followed along.

“How’re your preparations?” Hong Dali asked everyone. “You must be feeling pretty good after the fusion, right?”

“Very good.” Tang Muxin smiled and replied through the communicator. “I feel like I can take on ten space carriers by myself!”

“Miss Xinxin is amazing!” The lackeys decisively sucked up.

Hong Dali looked at the little thing sitting next to him. “Dear son, your father is facing an impending crisis! How we fare later on all depends on you!”

Little Bai Hechou smiled. “No problem. I’ll give them a huge gift later! I’ll beat up whoever tries to bully my father!”

“Good son!” Hong Dali was very satisfied with little Bai Hechou’s behavior.

To be honest, although his lackeys pretended to be powerhouses, the most powerful one was still his son—he did not overthink things previously and chose the Star Soul Stone for little Bai Hechou.

That item was so-so in Xiao Shengzhe’s hands. However, in little Bai Hechou’s hands…

It was not an overstatement to claim that little Bai Hechou now had the power to destroy an entire planet with one move!

Star Soul Stone! The ability of the Star Soul Stone!

Xiao Shengzhe’s maximum strength limit was the production of an exploding star around 100 meters in diameter. The explosion could be used to kill enemies. Little Bai Hechou could produce exploding stars too. However, the key was that the mass of the exploding star produced by little Bai Hechou was completely different from Xiao Shengzhe’s!

Three stages of Super Earthling transformation! Over 100,000 attribute points! The exploding star that he could produce would have a diameter of over 100 kilometers!

Giant exploding stars with diameters over 100 kilometers!

Just thinking about that power made people tremble in fear.

“Alright, everyone. Prepare yourselves.” The King Zergs flew at a high speed. Within half an hour, the Golden Emperor Beetle that Hong Dali was on had led over sixty King Zergs to close in on the High Nobles’ fleet. They would soon be within firing distance of the space carriers.

The Golden Emperor Beetle led the entire formation. The King Zergs fused together with the lackeys followed behind. The normal King Zergs were at the back. This attack formation allowed them to maximize their strength.

Soon, the High Nobles’ fleet moved forward once they saw that Hong Dali and the rest entered the firing distance.

Strategies did not matter in space.

In simple words, this was a world all about firepower. Whoever had the stronger firepower would claim the final victory.

“Everyone, prepare to charge!” Hong Dali yelled and patted Golden Emperor Beetle on the back. He led the charge!

“Super Earthling, third transformation!” Little Bai Hechou transformed at the same time.

Led by the two of them, the lackeys began to showcase their abilities and transformed.

“Dali.” Tang Muxin connected with the King Zergs and created a giant ice wall over fifty kilometers in both height and thickness. She asked, “How are we going to fight later on?”

“Screw them up!” Hong Dali laughed and charged forward!

Swoosh swoosh swoosh—

The entire King Zerg squad rushed forward.

…

The High Nobles’ fleet, inside the commanding spacecraft.

“Oh no. Something’s changed!” Ai’er, who had been monitoring Hong Dali and the rest, suddenly screamed. “These King Zergs are the True King Zergs who have fused with ability users! There are around twenty-five of them! Everyone possesses an ability!”

“What?!” Once he heard that, Silver Hair Komodo suddenly stood up. “You mean these King Zergs have successfully fused with ability users?!”

Hearing this, everyone else was stunned too.

King Zergs and True King Zergs who had fused with ability users. Those were two completely different concepts.

A Fifth-Order Stellar-level space carrier fleet could easily handle King Zergs. However, if they were True King Zergs, all twenty-five of them, led by a Golden Emperor Beetle, that team would not be so easily dealt with.

“This Hong Dali.” Komodo humphed coldly. “I was still wondering why over twenty King Zergs entered the atmosphere previously. So that’s the true reason. His luck is pretty decent. He managed to successfully create so many True King Zergs. Seems like our previous strategy gave him a good chance for fusion.”

“Order the fleet to retreat!” Silver Hair Komodo’s eyes focused and he said quietly, “We will fight guerrilla warfare! Ai’er, focus on monitoring their movements. We must ensure that we stay ahead of them at all times and lead them by the nose!”

“Yes!”

…

“Dali, they’re moving. It looks like they’re retreating.” Tang Muxin’s voice was heard.

“You want to run? Not so easy. Everyone, charge!” Hong Dali rode on the Golden Emperor Beetle and was the first to charge forward.

As the universe’s supreme blood relation, the Golden Emperor Beetle traveled at an incredibly fast speed in the universe. Within a few breaths, it began to quickly close in on the gap between itself and the enemy fleet.

The other King Zergs followed behind. Especially the true King Zergs who had fused with the lackeys. They were not much slower compared to the Golden Emperor Beetle.

At the same time, the High Nobles’ fleet began to concentrate energy on all the main cannons.

“It’s coming.” Hong Dali’s expression instantly turned serious. He squinted his eyes slightly. “Everyone, be careful. Don’t force yourselves. Go!”

“Boommmm—” After a brief charge-up period, all 300 Fifth-Order Stellar-level space carriers fired their main cannons at once!

Space was ruptured and torn apart. The Fifth-Order Stellar-level space carriers’ main cannons were overwhelmingly powerful. This round of firing was especially devastating. They shot directly at the Golden Emperor Beetle under Hong Dali.

As the god-like creature in the universe, an eerie energy membrane emerged in front of the Golden Emperor Beetle. The light beam from the space carrier’s main cannons strangely disappeared without a trace once they made contact with the energy membrane.

Zizzzzzzzz…

This round of attack was entirely absorbed by the Golden Emperor Beetle. However, Hong Dali was telepathically connected to the Golden Emperor Beetle. He gritted his teeth. The information feedback from the Golden Emperor Beetle suggested that it could only handle at most two more rounds of similar attacks. It would be helpless afterward.

After all, this Golden Emperor Beetle was too young. It was only a few months old. It would be difficult for it to go against an entire fleet.

“The Young Master helped us take the first round of attack. Everyone, charge!” Lackey Li Yang yelled and rushed forward.

Everyone else also charged forward at top speed.

Although Hong Dali did not say it, everyone understood that they could not handle many rounds of attacks like that. Otherwise, one Golden Emperor Beetle alone would be enough to wipe out the enemies. Why would they still be so nervous?

…

“The Golden Emperor Beetle is indeed impressive.” Silver Hair stared at the battle scenes shown on the holographic projections. He said quietly, “The universe’s supreme blood relation is indeed different. It could handle an entire round of main cannons’ attacks just like that.”

An attack from the main cannons from 300 space carriers could decimate an entire medium-sized planet. However, it still could not destroy the energy shield of a Golden Emperor Beetle. It was obvious how powerful the Golden Emperor Beetle was.

“If it wasn’t the case, it will not be one of the most treasured items in the universe.” Red Wolf excitedly licked his lips. “It won’t be able to handle too many rounds of attacks from the main cannons. Once we deplete its energy shield, we will have a high chance of capturing it alive.”

“Of course.” Komodo smiled. “Our main purpose this time is to restrain them. Relay the orders. Continue to fire!”
