Chapter 729: Empire Under Attack

~13 min read 2,422 words

The dense Black Mist expanded and then suddenly condensed. Tyrannical power gathered between the giant fists.

Boom!

Black ring-shaped ripples swept the surroundings, causing massive warship explosions.

The Golden Armored One was tightly grasped in the hands of the Fallen Titan. Black patterns spread along his body, and his pupils were bloodshot, seemingly finding the result before him hard to believe.

Although the Fallen Titan's Strength was slightly stronger than his, it shouldn't have led to such a disastrous defeat.

Just now, an inexplicable power suddenly entwined him, making his body uncontrollable, which was why he was countered.

And he was not unfamiliar with that power; he had secretly witnessed it many times.

"The power of the Annihilation Device, how could you control the power of the Annihilation Device!" The Golden Armored One shouted angrily, both out of shock and to notify his companion.

"You no longer need to know the answer to this question."

"If Lord Golden Armor falls into a Life-and-Death Crisis, you should need to take out the Mirror of Omniscience to save him." Li Yu looked at Alfrey's phantom close at hand and said:

"He was imprisoned in the blink of an eye and had no time to take out the Throne of Ruin. If you don't save him, he's really going to die."

Alfrey's expression changed again. He even knew they had brought Titan Artifacts; what exactly was this guy...

With the various events happening in succession, no matter how unwilling he was to admit it, he indeed developed a trace of fear towards the Li Yu in front of him.

That was an instinctive reaction when facing something incomprehensible. For Super Lifeforms like them, they hadn't felt this way for a very long time.

The situation at the scene didn't give him much time to think.

He could only take out the Mirror of Omniscience. The mirror body covered in cracks surfaced in front of him; this thing could enhance his abilities.

His palm stroked the Mirror of Omniscience. Strands of ripples spread out from the area covered by his palm, and the figure of the Golden Armored One gradually emerged in the pitch-black mirror.

The next moment, the Golden Armored One unexpectedly fell out from the mirror. He gasped heavily for breath, and the black threads that had almost covered his neck gradually disappeared.

His face was filled with lingering shock, and Alfrey also seemed to have suffered extremely heavy damage.

His main body was even caught up by the Mechanical Black Dragon, taking a full combo of attacks, and also sustained quite a bit of injury.

"Titan Artifact..." The Fallen Titan grabbed nothing but air, and his expression sank once more.

Although this Star Glory Empire hadn't walked its own path, the harvest from Loot Drops was not small either.

At least this Titan Artifact was an extremely powerful Weapon. No one understood the power of a Titan Artifact better than him.

"Kill him! Don't hesitate!" After Alfrey reacted, he immediately said to the Golden Armored One.

Kill who?

The Golden Armored One was a bit bewildered. The Fallen Titan? I want to kill him too.

The next moment he realized that Alfrey wasn't talking about the Fallen Titan, but the Li Yu close at hand.

This made him even more confused.

Wasn't this war caused by their unwillingness to hand Li Yu over to the Fallen Titan?

Why kill him now? If that's the case, then what the hell were they fighting for.

Alfrey told him not to hesitate, but under the current situation, he still inevitably hesitated.

And exactly in the moment he hesitated, a burst of Blazing Thunder Light violently erupted from Li Yu's body, and the Chains binding his body instantly shattered inch by inch.

[Symbiotic Colonization Armor] covered him, the Thunder Battle Armor was activated, and he broke free in an instant.

The sudden change in an instant made the Golden Armored One's expression look ugly.

Killing Li Yu made him somewhat hesitant, but he wouldn't watch the other party break free helplessly either.

The Long Sword in his hand subconsciously slashed out a dazzling sword light, heading straight for Li Yu's back.

However, the [Infinity Gauntlet] had already been equipped. His figure Flashed rapidly, Spatiotemporal Abilities intertwined, making it almost impossible for anyone to lock onto him.

"These two Weapons..." Alfrey frowned deeply seeing this scene.

When he caught Li Yu, he had already conducted a detailed search; there was absolutely no Weapon or equipment. Where did he take them out from now?

The Golden Armored One had already chased after him. Being a Super Lifeform after all, he quickly found Li Yu's opening and unhesitatingly slashed at the [Symbiotic Colonization Armor], stirring up large swaths of Lightning Glow.

Boom!

Li Yu flew backward like a fired cannonball. The Golden Armored One's eyes were indifferent; he had already summoned the Throne of Ruin and sat upon it like an emperor.

He wouldn't forget that the Fallen Titan was still Covetously Staring nearby.

If he got caught by the other party again, Alfrey might not have the ability to save him out.

Only, to his surprise, the backward-flying Li Yu showed no intention of slowing down; instead, his speed grew faster and faster.

"Want to leave!?" The Fallen Titan's gaze narrowed. His target was Li Yu.

If possible, he would rather just grab Li Yu and leave this place.

Although there was anger in his heart, he wouldn't put the cart before the horse, being very clear about what his goal was.

Subsequently, he abandoned the Golden Armored One and directly chased after Li Yu.

Although his body was enormous, his speed was very fast. He directly caught up, Black Mist surging, baring fangs and brandishing claws like a ferocious beast intending to be Predatory and Ferocious.

Li Yu took a sword strike from the Golden Armored One, but because the other party hadn't recovered from his previous state, that energy on him hadn't been expelled.

Moreover, he had the Thunder Battle Armor as a buffer, so that strike didn't cause him too much damage.

But the Fallen Titan was different. This guy almost squeezed the Golden Armored One to death just now; he didn't want to get entangled in close combat with him.

The Fallen Titan's fist was already blasting over. Li Yu's pupils shrank slightly. He turned around and fired a shot, activating [United Strength]!

Rumble!

Terrifying Energy Fluctuations exploded here. The Fallen Titan's expression changed drastically. He hadn't expected the other party could blast out an energy attack of this scale.

Forced by circumstances, he could only passively defend.

And using the cover of this attack, the space and time gems Flashed, and he directly passed through this area, arriving at the Deepest Layer of Sliced Time.

"His target is that box? The Mechanical Heart is in his hands!" The Fallen Titan instantly guessed the answer, and his heart couldn't help but grow anxious.

Thinking of this, he could only abandon his defense and forcefully pass through this terrifying energy. Reddish-brown scorch marks appeared on his black skin, bringing him severe burn traces.

The Golden Armored One following closely behind also charged in without hesitation.

......

At the same time, outside the Dark Void, a massive number of Terror Lifeforms began to gather.

Led by the Six-Armed Titan and a few top-tier Lifeforms, they launched an attack towards the Garrison Fleet of the Star Glory Empire.

Their Boss had already started fighting with the Star Glory Empire, so naturally, they wouldn't just watch the show.

Of course, for top-tier Terror Lifeforms like the Siren, they wouldn't pledge allegiance to the Fallen Titan.

It was just that before the outcome of the war was decided, they would follow the Fallen Titan's orders to avoid the Fallen Titan Settling scores later if he won the war.

If the Fallen Titan became the loser, then everything would vanish like smoke.

"Everyone... the war isn't over yet, how about we watch a show together." Figures with equally powerful Auras emerged. At the forefront, Loren had an indifferent expression, sending out a Mental Fluctuation.

They didn't appear on the frontal battlefield. On one hand, it was to guard against the Other-Dimensional Camp; on the other hand, it was to guard against these Terror Lifeforms.

Although there were no Super Lifeforms among them, they were still a force that couldn't be ignored.

"War, war!" A bloodthirsty light gleamed in the Six-Armed Titan's eyes, and he roared as he charged forward.

The war erupted with a bang!

They were different from this group of people from the Star Glory Empire. If they really dared to watch the show and wait for the result,

It would be fine if the Fallen Titan lost, but if he won, would they still be able to live?

......

Meanwhile, in the Capital Star System of the Star Glory Empire, Loyd felt the atmosphere among the High Echelon had been very solemn recently.

Because of Lyman's death, he was forced to be unable to participate in any events concerning Li Yu and the Other-Dimensional Camp.

However, he didn't care about this at all. Now that he controlled the A-Tier Alliance, he was quite happy about it.

He had just smoothed out the impact of the bizarre incident that happened a while ago—the A-Tier Lifeform Energy Extraction incident.

It was characterized as a large-scale Cosmic Singularity Event, and the main targets affected were A-Tier Lifeforms.

Because the A-Tier Alliance basically consisted of A-Tier Lifeforms, it created the illusion that those harmed were all A-Tier Alliance Members.

"Phew..." He rubbed his forehead, already keenly sensing that his father was plotting some grand scheme.

It was just that he didn't know what it was, mainly because he hadn't deliberately inquired about it either.

"I wonder who will win and who will lose in this clash..." he muttered in a low voice.

The Other-Dimensional Camp had become a sore spot for the Star Glory Empire, and it was bound to end with severe damage to one side.

"Warning, unknown threat detected, please resolve as soon as possible..." Just as he was deep in thought, his Smart Terminal suddenly popped up a warning.

This highest-authority warning would be forcefully received by all Senior Officials in the Capital Star System.

This meant that the center of the Star Glory Empire was under attack!

And unlike the others, he immediately received another message afterwards—

"Emperor's Directive: Loyd will temporarily serve as the commander-in-chief of defense, taking over the defense of the Capital Star System."

Before he could even react, images from the frontline appeared in front of him.

At this moment, a fleet of not too massive scale appeared outside the Defense Perimeter.

Streaks of Pale Green Light Beams were heading towards the outermost defense fortresses of the Capital Star System.

They were essentially a pale green, mist-like thin substance.

These "light beams" were released from the core green sphere, rapidly piercing through space. Within the area enveloped by that pale green mist, everything vanished in an instant.

A sturdy Space Fortress happened to appear on the screen. Its Shield was pierced through by the enemy's focused fire.

Then, swept by the green mist, half of it was neatly erased, just like a watermelon sliced open by a sharp blade.

The cross-section of the Space Fortress was extremely neat, exposing the Internal Facilities that were rapidly detonating inside, as well as the Imperial Soldiers rushing out to desperately fight the enemy.

This elite fleet had just appeared and already given the Star Glory Empire a huge gift!

Loyd adjusted his emotions and issued an order: "Activate Emergency Defense Measures, intercept the enemy!"

Piercing alarms echoed across the Defensive Front of the Star Glory Empire. The sudden strike sent the Defending Forces into momentary bewilderment.

Someone actually dared to attack the Capital Star System!?

This was something that had never happened since they were stationed here.

However, the strict system of the Star Glory Empire ensured they didn't lose their combat effectiveness. They rapidly reacted in a short time, beginning to counter the sudden attack.

"Enemy attack has arrived, all personnel prepare for Impact..."

The Carrier Mainframe of the Salvation Ark emitted a rapid alarm sound.

Subsequently, the space within a radius of tens of thousands of kilometers around the fleet was filled with countless whirlpool-like Spatial Rifts.

Following that, surging out from these rifts were nearly endless Energy Storms and Super Heavy Physical Missiles bombarding towards them.

These were only the most basic defense measures of the Star Glory Empire's Capital Star System. Then, higher-end Defense Systems were activated.

A giant diamond-shaped Crystal with a diameter of about a kilometer appeared on the battlefield. At its center, a Lifeform wearing Black Armor seemed to be sealed.

Then, the giant aircraft carriers that appeared alongside it opened the catapult channels on both sides of their hulls.

A large number of Shuttle-Shaped Devices composed of metal and crystals entered space.

These Shuttle-Shaped Devices were about a hundred meters long, and their crystal texture was clearly different from ordinary crystals.

Moreover, in front of each Crystal Pillar, a blurry image floated.

Those images were warriors wearing black visors and ancient war armors, looking almost identical to the Lifeform in the center of that crystal, just that their formation method was somewhat special.

They had the exact same scale, the exact same mass, and even the Energy Reactions and information radiation were completely identical.

There was nothing that could distinguish between these projections and the main body. Only after enduring a certain amount of firepower would these projections reveal their relatively fragile characteristics.

They charged onto the battlefield collectively, like an endless stream of Cannon Fodder. Even if they were destroyed, that special crystal would quickly condense them out again.

Large swaths of fleets exploded. The Star Glory Empire was like a hard rock, remaining steadfast and unmoving amid the towering waves.

Even though their Advanced Lifeforms had already left, their inherent Defense System still stood proud in the Starry Universe.

This scene was captured by countless Scanners and then rapidly broadcasted to the entire Interstellar space.

[The Star Glory Empire's Capital Star System is Under Attack!]

This news rapidly surged to the top of interstellar news!

It instantly attracted the onlookers of a large number of Bystanders.

The Star Glory Empire had initiated quite a few external wars, but there were very few who could directly strike the Star Glory Empire's Capital Star System.
