Chapter 943: Level 7 Alien Beast! |
After that black hole jet descended into this universe ahead of the arrival of the Central Black Hole, Xiao Yu detected a violent tremor in the surrounding space. Xiao Yu did not know the source of this tremor. Perhaps it was a phenomenon caused by the sudden descent of a supermassive object, or perhaps it was some arrangement made by the Dark Star Civilization, or perhaps it was the work of the Logic Weapon. None of that was important. What was important was that under these circumstances, all the Spatial Bombs Xiao Yu had arranged in advance could no longer be used. As instruments closely related to space, such violent spatial tremors were enough to damage all of them.
But this was not what shocked Xiao Yu the most. After that black hole jet appeared, Xiao Yu saw that endless things that clearly did not belong to natural creations, nor to technological creations, were rapidly pouring out from the transmission channel. These things without question all possessed autonomous consciousness. They looked more like lifeforms of the Alien Beast type.
These Alien Beasts varied in size, some large and some small. The largest were nearly the size of a planet, while the smallest were not even as large as a table. Their appearances were also diverse. But that was not the key. The most important point was that their numbers were simply too great.
Far too many.
At this moment, the transmission channel connecting that three-dimensional universe and this three-dimensional universe seemed to have become a gateway to hell, with endless hellish fiends rushing out from there. They were like a tide, limitless and inexhaustible.
In just these short thirty minutes, the number of such Alien Beasts that Xiao Yu had observed already rushing out had exceeded one billion. And as for how many more such things were still inside the transmission channel, Xiao Yu had no idea at all.
Xiao Yu understood what these things were in a very short time. He could not help muttering to himself inwardly, “This… this is the arrangement the Rebel Alliance made in the Feiyuan Galaxy? They not only gave the Dark Star Civilization a Logic Weapon, they also gave them such a powerful helper… The surprise the universe civilization mentioned should be this…”
This was without question Alien Beast life, and not ordinary Alien Beast life at that. Xiao Yu had encountered Alien Beasts of this type before. Back then, when Xiao Yu was not yet even a Level 4 Civilization, he had spent enormous effort to defeat that enemy. This kind of enemy shared one common point with Xiao Yu, and that was numbers. Endless numbers.
That’s right. This was definitely a Level 7 Infinite Proliferation-Type Alien Beast, basically the same type of existence as Xiao Yu. Among civilizations of the same level, whether Technological Civilization or Alien Beast Civilization, they were among the most formidable existences.
Through his detection instruments, Xiao Yu had already seen the enormous figure inside the transmission channel. This was the Central Black Hole of the Feiyuan Galaxy. At this moment, Xiao Yu’s ultra-strong gravitational source had already been destroyed. It had completely collapsed into an energy black hole. And now, the overall situation was settled. The Central Black Hole could no longer escape again. It could only follow its current direction of movement and come into this universe.
Now, it had truly arrived here.
And through real-time detection tools, Xiao Yu detected the enemy he was about to face. Around the Central Black Hole, there were obvious traces of creations of a Technological Civilization. Those enormous space bases and numerous ships all displayed the strength of this enemy. And near those technological creations of the Dark Star Civilization, there was another even more enormous thing.
It was a strange object the size of a star. It was roughly spherical in shape, yet unlike an ordinary star it did not exhibit mass nor radiate light and heat. It was surrounded by many densely packed small objects like a cloud. But upon increasing the resolution, Xiao Yu could see that those were not clouds at all. They were all individual hideous Alien Beast lifeforms. Clearly, the Alien Beasts that had rushed out of the transmission channel earlier had originated from here. And the Alien Beast lifeforms here had all been born from this Alien Beast mother body, which was as enormous as a star.
“The Logic Weapon and the Level 7 Alien Beast. These are the two enemies I am about to face.” Xiao Yu thought silently. “My task is to destroy the Central Black Hole in the end under the obstruction of these two.”
Xiao Yu was not worried that the Dark Star Civilization would once again move the Central Black Hole into another three-dimensional universe. This matter could not be measured by the logic that if it could be done once, it could be done twice. Clearly, when the Central Black Hole had first been moved, there had been no factor of Xiao Yu obstructing it. But now that Xiao Yu was here, the difficulty of moving it had increased by several hundred or even a thousand times. The Dark Star Civilization was unlikely to be able to bear such severe backlash.
Next, it would be a direct clash of hard power.
Xiao Yu still planned to execute his previous strategy, namely to use supermassive chain-reaction Spatial Bombs to blow up the Central Black Hole. In fact, this was also the only feasible method. Because by any other method, even if the Central Black Hole were left undefended for Xiao Yu to do whatever he wanted, Xiao Yu still would not be able to destroy it.
But this faced one problem. Although supermassive chain-reaction Spatial Bombs were immensely powerful, destroying the Central Black Hole would still require a huge quantity of them. There was also another point, their own defenses were extremely fragile. In other words, they were very easily interfered with and destroyed by the enemy. In order to achieve the goal of using Spatial Bombs to blast the Central Black Hole apart, Xiao Yu first had to destroy the Dark Star Civilization and this Level 7 Alien Beast.
This was the second step of the plan.
The plan consisted of three steps in total. The first step was to pull the Central Black Hole into the real three-dimensional universe. The second step was to destroy the protectors around it. The third step was to blow it up and complete the mission.
“Then, the war begins.”
Xiao Yu muttered to himself and issued the command.
At this time, Xiao Yu had a reserve of about one hundred billion warships. Moreover, Xiao Yu’s many logistics bases and enormous shipyards and factories were still rapidly under construction, and they would be able to continuously produce even more ships. This would become Xiao Yu’s primary reliance in fighting the Logic Weapon and the Level 7 Alien Beast.
“Perhaps the method I used back then to deal with that Level 3 Alien Beast can also be used here. Facts have proven that when fighting something like an Infinite Proliferation-Type Alien Beast, quality is not important. Quantity is what matters most. I can also build countless ultra-miniature warships, and then build enough Supercomputing Centers to command them… These warships can serve to confront the largest-scale Alien Beast swarms, while those warships directly controlled by me can act as elite forces…”
“You are proud of your numbers, so I will crush you with numbers and see who can command more power.”
Xiao Yu thought silently and quickly made a decision. Thus, behind Xiao Yu’s lines, another construction task was put into actual production.
The fierce war had already begun. The proliferating Alien Beasts that had rushed out first had already engaged Xiao Yu’s vanguard forces. During the battle, Xiao Yu quickly discovered one thing, the strength of these proliferating Alien Beasts seemed to be divided according to body size. The larger the Alien Beast, the stronger its combat ability. They could engage in curvature flight at extremely high speeds, use attacks on the spatial level, and had even evolved protective layers similar to technological shields. Among them, the largest Alien Beasts, as big as a rocky planet, had combat power roughly equivalent to one of Xiao Yu’s Star-Class battleships. The smallest were not even comparable to Xiao Yu’s Village-Class warships.
But these small Alien Beasts were the most numerous. Their numbers were so vast as to be infinite and impossible to count. They were like ant swarms and bee swarms, covering the sky and the earth. Their immense numbers likewise granted them considerable combat power.
Within the void of space, one group of Alien Beasts became entangled with roughly one hundred thousand of Xiao Yu’s warships. Here, flesh and blood flew everywhere, fragments scattered in all directions, and space became a chaotic mess, continuously flashing with bursts of light even more intense than stars…
A City-Class warship fired a Faster-Than-Light Spatial Cannon that suddenly pierced through an Alien Beast about the size of a mountain, causing it to lose all combat capability. But in the very next moment, at least one hundred thousand small Alien Beasts ranging in size from tables to high-rise buildings rushed over and wrapped around it. More than ten minutes later, when the swarm departed, this City-Class warship had already turned into a heap of ruins…
A Continent-Class warship came under fierce attack from a powerful Alien Beast. The violent impact of its Faster-Than-Light charge, together with fierce lashes carrying spatial energy, left it struggling to cope. Fortunately, several Nation-Class warships arrived in time, and only then were they able to join forces to kill this powerful Alien Beast…
“Compared to that lower-level Alien Beast, this high-level Alien Beast no longer only wins in numbers. It can even create individual Alien Beasts with considerable combat power…” Xiao Yu thought silently. “Each of these huge Alien Beasts is stronger than the Python Alien Beast in the Milky Way, stronger than Alien Beast Taihao, and the like… This is already an existence on the same level as a Virtual Life civilization. No, it is even stronger than a Virtual Life civilization, because it does not need to worry about rebellion. It seems the Rebel Alliance really spent heavily to support the Dark Star Civilization…”
