Chapter 382: Revenge Alliance
Just as it appeared, a request communication entered the Tianxin Command Center's channel.
The holographic screen flickered, and a figure appeared.
That was an extraordinarily strange-looking old man, lacking a mouth and nose, with the features' positions replaced by a smooth patch of skin.
Only at the center of the face was embedded a huge, deep solitary eye.
That eye hardly resembled a biological organ; it was more like a window to an ancient universe.
Within it, there were reflections of stars being born and dying, the lament of civilizations rising and falling, and moreover a hatred and the vicissitudes that have settled over hundreds of millions of years.
「Yanhuang Civilization's mighty one, Qin Hao, your excellency. 」
The old man's voice, through the translation system, rang directly in everyone's minds.
「I am the Star Pupil Elder of the Watcher Civilization; we…… choose to believe you. 」
As he spoke, he slightly turned sideways, exposing a corner of the holographic star map behind him to the lens.
There, too, were mountains of corpses and seas of blood, with war flames connecting heaven and earth, the cruelty no less than that of the Yanhuang Battlefield.
「Our mother galaxy, three million years ago, was devoured by the Overlord.
We…… are the last survivors.
In the Star Pupil Elder's solitary eye, that bone-deep hatred almost became substance, lowering the temperature within the Command Center by several degrees.
「We are not fighting alone. 」
Before his words finished, the rear flank of that ancient castle flagship behind him
Space was torn open, and three huge dimensional rifts burst open violently!
Three fleets, vastly different in style yet alike in exuding towering battle intent, surged forth from within!
One fleet, all its warships perfect streamlined teardrop shapes,
That was the 「Kara Xi Civilization」's Starlight Fleet, famed for speed and dimensional weapons.
Another fleet seemed composed purely of shadow and dark matter, flickering in and out of view under starlight, filled with a deadly, eerie beauty.
That was the 「Yinying Civilization」's Stealth Fleet, adept at assassination and surprise attacks.
The last fleet, its warships sharply angular throughout, like black mountain ranges,
Their hulls covered in dark-matter armor that absorbs all light, silent and heavy.
This is the last remnant strength of the 「Anxing Civilization」, whose wall-wall technology once even made the Overlord feel hard-pressed.
「We four, having survived the Overlord's endless harvesting by chance, are five-tier high civilizations that have formed the Revenge Alliance. 」
「We have been hiding in the universe's shadows, licking our wounds, waiting for a chance for revenge. 」
His solitary eye, gazing across endless space, saw Nan Gong Lin seated upon the command throne, the depths of that gaze filled with indescribable shock.
「We have observed you for a long time, from when you built that unbelievable wall, 」
to that exalted one…… revealing divine-like mental power.
We finally decided, staking everything, the last sparks of our civilization!
Qin Hao looked at that face on the screen, finally nodding slowly, and uttered five words.
「A wise choice. 」
Inside the Tianxin Command Center, silence was broken.
Zhang Yunfeng, Lao Luo, and others remained silent.
「Quick! Quickly tally the allied forces' numbers! 」
Zhang Xianzhong almost shouted it out, his eyes blood-red.
The technician in charge of data analysis operated with both hands on the console.
His gaze fixed on the string of rapidly jumping numbers, his pupils dilating more and more.
「Report…… report to the Chief Commander……」
「According to the scan, the total number of warships in the Revenge Alliance's four civilizations' fleets is five hundred billion! 」
Boom——!!!
The entire Command Center, after a deathly silence lasting three seconds, exploded completely.
「Five hundred billion!! 」
「Now it's good. 」
「The advantage is mine; this wave, the advantage is thoroughly mine. 」
Adding the Yanhuang Civilization's five hundred billion Divine Might II Battleships, the allied forces' total strength, at this moment, officially broke through the terrifying ten trillion mark.
This number already far exceeds the total forces the Overlord currently has committed to the battlefield.
On the star map, the fresh blue light point representing allies, and the green light point of the Yanhuang Fleet,
like two vast rivers, converging into an unstoppable torrent capable of submerging an entire star system.
The red light point representing the Overlord, before this blue-green intertwined furious torrent, instantly appeared so tiny, so pitiful.
「For the lost homeland! 」
「For the departed compatriots! 」
In the Star Pupil Elder's solitary eye, a light that burns everything burst forth.
His roar, filled with millions of years of blood and tears, echoed through the public battle channel in the cockpit of every allied warship.
「Revenge! 」
「Revenge!! 」
「Revenge!!! 」
Ten trillion warships!
Gathering the iron torrents of five civilizations, from the front and flanks,
Transformed into two invincible giant hammers, they charged toward the Overlord's great army,
They launched the most fierce and frenzied total assault in history.
The scales of war, at this moment, are no longer tilting.
but instead, it snapped outright!
However, facing this invincible fleet that could make any civilization tremble, Qin Hao's expression remained as calm as a lake frozen for eternity.
He simply watched that torrent silently, like an observer.
This power was enough to crush the Overlord's regular fleet.
But that newly born 'infant', that agglomeration of chaotic will, would absolutely not admit defeat so easily.
……
The full-force frenzied assault of the ten-thousand-trillion allied forces was devastating.
Under the double crushing of numbers and morale, the Overlord's regular fleet could barely organize any effective resistance.
The defensive line shrank bit by bit.
Countless Devourer warships didn't even have time to turn their guns before being completely submerged by an ocean of dimensional cannons and spatial fluctuations several times their own.
Reduced to nothing.
Victory was already in the bag.
The allied forces' cheers echoed throughout the public channel, filled with the joy of revenge.
However, just at this moment,
At the center of the battlefield, the massive biological flagship, silent since the outbreak of war and comparable to an entire star system, suddenly underwent an aberration.
Its gargantuan hull, so vast it was breath‑taking, slowly split open down the middle.
What was revealed was not a dense array of weapons, nor an energy‑pulsing core.
but a pulsing, blood‑colored meat egg!
Upon its appearance, this 'egg' emanated a great terror springing from the deepest depths of life!
Hum—
The meat egg began to throb rhythmically; each throb produced an irresistible horror suction.
On the battlefield, the surrounding Devourer warships that were retreating defeat after defeat and scattering in flight.
Whether it was the sturdy hull forged of matter or the terrified souls of the crew inside,
they were forcibly torn and stretched before this suction, turning into streams of blood‑colored energy that surged madly into the throbbing meat egg!
"It... it is devouring its own army!"
In the single eye of Elder Xingtong, there was an uncontainable shock and a hint... of fear long anticipated.
Countless hundreds of billions of Devourer warships, before this meat egg, had no power to resist.
Like sacrifices already prepared, they were completely devoured and digested by it.
And with each warship devoured, the meat egg's volume visibly expanded a bit, and its throbbing frequency increased a bit.
The chaotic and evil aura it exuded also grew ever richer.
In the eyes of all allied warriors, filled with shock to the point of despair, the volume of the meat egg,
in just a few minutes it expanded from planetary scale to the terrifying size of a small star system!
Crack—
A clear sound of shattering glass echoed deep in everyone's souls.
A crack appeared on the shell of the huge blood‑colored meat egg.
Then came a second, a third……
In an instant, spider‑web‑like cracks covered the entire surface!
The next second, the eggshell burst open!
A super‑aggregate monster composed of countless twisted flesh, billions of wailing souls, and innumerable shattered mechanical remnants,
was forcibly spliced and kneaded together by a domineering force into a super‑aggregate monster, which struggled out of the shattered egg!
It had no fixed form, changing wildly every second.
At times it turned into a giant face that shrouded the entire starry sky.
