Chapter 422: Waluo Civilization, Self-Defense!

~14 min read 2,632 words

In the pitch-black and cold starry sky.

Following the appearance of space ripples visible to the naked eye.

A full eighty-eight spaceships, pitch-black as ink, appeared within the Solar System.

They naturally arrived through the Space Node near Pluto.

It was exactly the same as when Su Ping went from the Space Node near Taiyin to the side of the Kalo Civilization's home planet.

Only, judging by the size and number of the spaceships that appeared this time.

Their level of technological civilization was somewhat higher than that of the Kalo Civilization and Water Blue Star.

This was an interstellar fleet named the Waluo Civilization.

Appearing near Pluto was naturally no coincidence.

Rather, it was because their civilization had discovered an anomaly occurring at Jupiter in the Solar System via gravitational wave detection not long ago.

By analyzing the Space Fluctuation produced by this anomaly, they first joyfully discovered a Space Node in their own star system that connected to this one.

Then, their scientists realized that in the star system where the anomaly appeared, there were stored rare minerals in quantities vast compared to their homeland.

These minerals were heavenly treasures in the eyes of the transcendent.

In the eyes of a technological civilization that had reached the levels of space and gravity, they were likewise extremely precious and important special creations.

Many creations that could be called Black Technology often required these special minerals to be manufactured.

Consequently, in the Waluo Civilization, the lack of rare minerals and the ever-increasing demand for them had become one of their primary contradictions.

This made it so that even though the Waluo Civilization's high command and military were well aware that the unknown starry sky was full of unpredictable dangers.

They still made the decision to invest massive resources to go and explore.

And after relying on the intelligence brought back by the first wave of probe satellites.

Combined with relevant astronomical data from the past.

After they determined that the Solar System only contained an intelligent civilization that had just rushed out of the embrace of its home planet.

They impulsively made the decision to mobilize the interstellar fleet, attempting to colonize this strange and weak civilization in one go, and then use the other party's manpower and material resources to help them mine the rare minerals in the Solar System.

The commander of the fleet was a Waluo Civilization general with rich leadership experience.

During his three hundred years of service, he had traveled to twelve different star systems and rendered distinguished service to his civilization.

Regarding such an impulsive entry into the Solar System.

Unlike those who were high-spirited and felt that this time would allow the Waluo Civilization to enter a golden age once again.

This commander was somewhat worried.

At the meeting, he pointed out the blurry images captured by the first batch of probe satellites.

There, in the orbit of the light blue planet that clearly had traces of intelligent civilization life, besides the already known Moon.

There was an extra small planet.

This made the commander suspect that this was not a small planet, but something similar to the Waluo Civilization's Planet Fortress.

Regarding this opinion, the committee members naturally did not agree.

The expert groups they had assembled also used a large number of cases and scientific theories to explain why the live footage was different from what had been detected before.

After all, reality is not a movie; separated by such a vast distance, facing so many unexpected factors.

Never having detected a small planet was a completely understandable coincidence and also in line with mathematical probability.

As for that intelligent civilization.

Through the experts' increasingly diligent search of past astronomical data.

It could be confirmed that at least one hundred years ago, this intelligent civilization had not yet been able to leave its home planet.

Even now, while it seemed there were more or less base facilities on various planets.

But those facilities could be seen at a glance to not have high technological content.

At least they could not compare to their Waluo Civilization.

Of course, whether it was the commander, the committee members, or the expert group.

Regarding the most unscientific Golden Leaf Bodhi Tree on the Moon.

They all believed it was some kind of large-scale energy projection related to the spiritual totem of an intelligent civilization.

And they felt that this civilization must be one very devout toward gods.

Otherwise, it would not waste so many resources to maintain such a high-consumption entity.

"Is this the star system where a planet appeared and caused the Gravitational Wave detector to warn of an anomaly?"

"It seems our luck is good this time; after the space jump, only five percent of the ships had malfunctions requiring repairs."

"The number of crew members experiencing severe discomfort is currently only one percent."

The commander of the Waluo Fleet stroked his light green chin and breathed a slight sigh of relief as he looked at the report.

What he feared most was that this Space Node would have problems, causing his fleet to fail before it even began.

As it stood, the god of luck was shielding the Waluo Civilization.

"My apologies, weak indigenous civilization; in order for Waluo to continue to be great, the era that belongs to you is coming to an end."

The Waluo commander sighed in his heart.

He was just about to issue orders to follow the predetermined plan and head to Jupiter's location to see what exactly had happened there.

Suddenly!

The Waluo commander saw an emergency report sent by his adjutant.

And he opened the projection, seeing a scene that the Waluo commander found difficult to understand.

In the image, an intelligent life form wearing strange clothes and holding a cold weapon.

Was floating in the starry sky without the support of any equipment.

And suddenly it moved rapidly, approaching a supply ship in the Waluo Civilization fleet.

The Waluo Civilization crew members on the supply ship were all somewhat bewildered.

Not knowing what to do, most of them suspected they were hallucinating due to the space jump.

A small portion, however, utilized detection equipment to lock onto the other party and immediately reported it.

This also allowed the Waluo Commander to see a close-up image of that rabbit-eared female cultivator.

It also made him begin to doubt himself, wondering if he was actually dreaming inside a sleep pod due to the space jump.

"Commander, the data is out; this intelligent life form... its body size is only half that of our adult individuals."

"Half the height? But how did she manage to move in outer space relying on her physical body?"

"The detectors did not find any metal reaction from the other party other than the cold weapon in her hand!"

"Could it be... some kind of biological technology that uses rare minerals?"

After a moment of silence, the adjutant racked his brains to find a reason that seemed most likely to him.

The Waluo Commander rubbed his head and suddenly discovered that the intelligent individual had suddenly stepped both feet onto the top of a supply ship.

Then, with the cold weapon in her hand, she appeared to insert it lightly downward.

The Flying Sword touched the hull of the spaceship.

With a *puff*, it pierced right in without any obstruction.

This left the Waluo Commander and many ship captains unable to sit still after seeing this scene.

Good heavens!

What kind of cold weapon is this, to be able to pierce through the spaceship's alloy hull so easily!

It even pierced in for nearly seventy centimeters!

And this was clearly not the other party's limit.

Because when it pierced in, the spaceship hull did not cause the slightest sense of resistance.

This could not help but make the Waluo Commander open his mouth wide for a while before saying:

"That entire cold weapon is likely manufactured using rare minerals!"

"The intelligent individual before us must be a super soldier created by that intelligent civilization by concentrating its civilizational power!"

"Everyone, put away your contempt! Our opponent's overall level of civilization might not be as high as ours."

"But in terms of biological modification and the use of special minerals, the other party has walked ahead of our Waluo Civilization because of those special minerals."

"Immediately dispatch guard spaceships to carry out an arrest!"

"Capture her alive if possible!"

As the Waluo Commander gave the order.

Hundreds of rectangular spaceships, approximately ten to twenty meters long, were released from the bellies of some large spaceships.

These small spaceships charged toward the rabbit-eared female cultivator who was studying the supply ship.

At the same time, several defensive turrets on the supply ship had also turned their muzzles to aim at the female cultivator.

It was only out of consideration for capturing her alive that there had been no movement until now.

"Quite large in size, but unfortunately, it is far worse than metal plates added with Lunar Crystal Powder."

The rabbit-eared female cultivator shook her head, while simultaneously feeling in her heart the malice toward her from the living beings inside these large and small metal lumps.

"Hmm, the malice emitted by the other party has been recorded."

"Those things... are also clearly coming for me."

"Since the other party took the initiative to attack, I should be acting in legitimate scientific defense, right?"

The rabbit-eared female cultivator pulled out the Flying Sword and leaped lightly, retreating into the starry sky to the side.

Thinking the other party was trying to escape, the small spaceships hurriedly increased their output power and accelerated toward her one after another.

Then, the Waluo Civilization officers and soldiers in the cockpits of these small spaceships.

Suddenly heard a crisp warning sound in their minds.

They did not understand the language used by that sound.

However, it did not prevent them from understanding the meaning expressed within it.

These Waluo Civilization officers and soldiers, however, all ignored this warning.

They treated the voice in their minds as some kind of auditory hallucination after-effect from the space jump.

The small spaceships in the front row even fired missiles loaded with a large amount of anesthetic gas.

However, these missiles had just ignited and left the ship hulls.

Having confirmed that the other party initiated the attack, the rabbit-eared female cultivator, with her eyes emitting an excited red light, swung the Flying Sword in her hand and slashed out a beam of sword light.

As the sword light flew out, the Talisman that flew out from beside the rabbit-eared female cultivator also emitted a bright light, shooting out beams of white light.

In the blink of an eye, before the Waluo Commander and those frontline officers and soldiers could react.

The hundreds of small spaceships charging toward the rabbit-eared female cultivator had already all been hit or pierced through by the sword light and light beams.

Then...

These spaceships exploded in unison, turning into fireworks in the starry sky.

At the same time, the Golden Leaf Bodhi Tree on the Moon Surface flickered with a faint light, and a Primordial Spirit Avatar flew out from the tree.

The Spirit Beasts of Golden Core and even Nascent Soul realms at various planetary bases.

Now also looked over one by one, feeling something in their hearts.

Boom, boom, boom!

The first wave of fireworks had not yet finished blooming.

The Waluo Commander saw that the intelligent individual's speed suddenly increased sharply, and she appeared in front of the nearest supply ship in an instant.

And then... a blinding light flashed by.

Commander Waluo heard the desperate screams and cries from within that supply ship.

He saw, from other perspectives, the supply ship being split in two and then beginning to explode with sparks.

This live broadcast, more shocking than any science fiction movie he had ever seen, left Commander Waluo feeling somewhat incredulous.

Compared to the supply ship, that intelligent individual was like an insignificant ant.

How could this ant just wave its hand like that, and instead, it was the supply ship that was destroyed?

Where exactly did such immense energy come from?

Science! Is this something that can be explained by science?

"Fire! In the name of the Waluo Civilization Pioneering Fleet, I grant you all unlimited firing authority!"

"For the Waluo Civilization! Destroy this monster!"

The Waluo Civilization fleet, having had one supply ship destroyed, was enraged; scattered across the starry sky, they one after another aimed at the rabbit-eared female cultivator and released various weapons.

Electromagnetic Cannons, Laser Cannons, and all sorts of missiles.

However, the rabbit-eared female cultivator noticed that the primary weapons were still the kinetic warheads fired by the Electromagnetic Cannons.

These ultra-high-speed warheads were plain and simple, yet their power was astonishing.

Plus, being released from large starships, most were large-caliber shells.

Even the rabbit-eared female cultivator, facing such attacks, chose to prioritize dodging.

At the same time, at the Water Blue Star Human Federation headquarters.

"Is this the alien fleet capable of space jumping?"

"From the images seen so far, the other side... does not quite look like the technological civilization capable of long-distance travel between star systems that we anticipated."

"It seems they are an alien civilization that took a shortcut through Space Nodes, similar to the Kalo Civilization; this should be a good thing for us."

"Judging from the conflict between the other side and the transcendent individual, even in interstellar space, the transcendent individual still possesses a great advantage."

"They are more agile, and their methods are more numerous."

"And most crucially, their destructive power exceeds the defensive capabilities of the alien civilization's starships."

In the headquarters conference room, the experts analyzed while sighing with emotion.

The attendees were relieved, yet also felt some regret.

Even when raised to the level of interstellar warfare.

Transcendent individuals still displayed an overwhelming advantage over technological civilization.

The desire to rely on technological development to master a Human Civilization military force that would make transcendents wary, thereby increasing bargaining power and gaining a sense of security, seems to be a long and arduous road.

"Quick!"

"Everyone get up, an alien civilization has appeared and is currently fighting our side's transcendent!"

"Hurry and enter the Dharma Array, activate the Array nodes, and contribute to our Human Civilization!"

Taoist temples, Buddhist temples, and churches across Water Blue Star that received support from the transcendent cooperation project.

At this moment, they were also stirred, and after receiving requests from the transcendent side.

They all took action one after another.

In a short time, the Evil-Slaying Ten Thousand Sword Array, the Tiangang Disha Subduing Demon Array, and other Arrays left behind by Su Ping.

Were not used to fight against Abyss monsters, nor were they used to fight against Evil Spirits.

Instead, they were used to deal with the alien civilization.

It can only be said that this alien civilization is lucky, appearing exactly when Su Ping no longer needed them to fight against Abyss monsters.

The power of the great Array that had already been accumulated was transmitted to the Golden Leaf Bodhi Tree on the Moon Surface.

And then, with the help of the Golden Leaf Bodhi Tree.

This power was transmitted to Jupiter, and after being relayed by the Jianmu Divine Tree on Jupiter.

Crossing a distance of billions of kilometers, it appeared on the rabbit-eared female cultivator's Magic Treasure Bracelet.

Ding!

As the bracelet could not store this power, it hurriedly released it.

Because of the long distance, a phantom of the Evil-Slaying Sword, having lost ninety percent of its power, appeared in the starry sky.

Causing the Waluo Civilization fleet, clearly because of this abrupt and abnormal appearance, to once again experience emotions like disbelief.
