Chapter 566: Directly Snuffed Out Your Star
Lin Bu Ran: What, you even went to someone's doorstep!?
Lin Ran was stunned; she didn't expect Old Zhang to be so radical.
Alliance bigwig: What's this? I just had a new idea—watch me give you a big move.
Lin Bu Ran:?
Soon after, Zhang Jie sent a video; at its start, he fixed a camera on his temporary warship.
And the camera was aimed at the enemy's star.
"Little guy, don't move, watch the camera."
"Okay...."
The video transmitted a hesitant voice, likely from the warship Zhang Jie had hastily sent out.
Afterwards, Lin Ran watched Zhang Jie transform into Crimson Refined Vajra, pulses roaring behind him as he charged toward the enemy's star.
As time went on, the picture suddenly shook; then the enemy's star quickly faded at a visible pace until it extinguished.
Lin Ran:!!!
Bu'er! You just sucked their home star dry?
Afterwards, Zhang Jie's arrogant, wild laughter rang out from the video.
"Ah! So rushed, so rushed—hurry up and leave!"
After the video ended, Lin Ran stood with her mouth agape, unable to calm down for a long time.
She suddenly realized that Zhang Jie's power had grown ever stronger, now strong enough to match hers.
He is gradually no longer the man who lives off her.
For a moment, Lin Ran felt somewhat wistful, unable to tell whether she felt delighted or anxious.
In short, this is a good thing—at least Zhang Jie no longer needs to be threatened by anyone.
"Why think so much? Later he'll still have to come drill me?"
Lin Ran immediately felt relieved—it's no big deal! Afterwards, she still needs to focus on important matters.
The news of the war between the lofty Alliance and the Ocean Civilization Fei'erge burst out instantly, with no warning, no buffer time.
By the time many people learned, the Ocean Civilization Fei'erge had already lost three colonial planets: one taken by Lin Ran's direct assault, another taken single-handedly by Zhang Jie after exhausting all forces.
And another was taken when the Alliance directly extinguished its star, leading to a surrender without combat.
Many civilizations were shocked: when did the Alliance acquire a silent means to extinguish stars? Such methods left countless civilizations feeling chilled.
You should know, extinguishing a star isn't like putting out a fire—once it's out, it's not harmless.
If a star goes out, it means it lacks the ability to counteract inward collapse; it will collapse extremely fast—low mass becomes a red giant that devours planets, high mass collapses in place into a supernova, unleashing a passionate barrage.
The people on that planet would definitely be thrilled!
Imagine your star system is an extremely important economic lifeline, with countless orbital defenses and countless fleets guarding against attacks—akin to a galactic fortress.
Then a sturdy Zhang appears before your eyes, ignoring all defenses, goes straight to your home star and extinguishes it—how terrifying!
So, the Alliance's influence quickly surged; everyone fears provoking this colossus, and some civilizations already regard the Alliance as a higher-order existence.
It's obvious that some Fish-head people don't grasp the current situation, bluntly saying they still have over thirty colonial planets and daring the Alliance to take them.
Can only say, indeed bold; thus relying on jump technology, plus Lin Ran's 'little aunt', Old Zhang, and the Three Great Buddhas, they broke through the enemy's 23 planets in just over a month.
Even Zhang Jie found time to run a simulation during that period.
The result was still utterly ordinary, a life without much turbulence—although in the simulation he experienced several life‑and‑death trials and gained considerable status, to Old Zhang it was already quite ordinary.
In the following two months, the Alliance's great army pressed forward—though called a great army, it actually consisted of just two huge warships and one deep‑space huge warship.
The pressure from these three colossi is top‑notch—this is the advantage of mobile war machines.
As for Yingxing, Zhang Jie directly bought a top‑tier super security insurance, spending a lot of money; the price was extravagant, but to Zhang Jie it was just a drizzle.
As for the Ringworld, heh, those Fish‑head monsters didn't even get a hold of its Ringworld set.
In short, this wave was another total victory, right?
Over thirty planets, with no near‑earth suppression, no stellar slaughter, and no damage at all.
Fei'erge's defeat was a total political and military disaster; perhaps those Fish‑head people also don't realize that, in just a few short years, the Alliance that was once evenly matched with them has grown to this extent.
They don't understand, nor do they comprehend; they think the Alliance is still a soft persimmon, but who made the Alliance produce a Zhang Jie?
If they have the ability, let them also produce a Fish Jie?
And these occupied planets, with complete infrastructure and no damage, are high‑value worlds; Zhang Jie sold them at a good price.
As for who bought them, cough cough, classmate Xiao Mo took the initiative to buy them, and she's still quite wealthy.
As for those Fish‑head monsters, where they'll end up is hard to say—after all, Yu Xiaomo is no saint; she's a ruthless capitalist.
Those Fish‑head monsters are just waiting to work off their debt.
The Alliance now has funds; this money is comparable to half of Zhang Jie's total assets, and various constructions need to be scheduled.
Moreover, because of the Ringworld, the Alliance now urgently needs fresh blood; the human‑creation plan has kicked off, kicked off, kicked off!!
Although the Alliance is based on gene tech, making clones of people is ridiculously easy, yet the Alliance still leans toward natural reproduction.
Creating perfect humans by gene editing actually isn't perfect enough—the more perfect something is, the more flaws it has.
The Alliance tends to attribute everything to 'neutralization'; sometimes having flaws is actually the best.
As the saying goes, extremes reverse; the Alliance must understand this principle, which is why it does this.
Of course, since everyone else is doing it, Zhang Jie certainly won't lag behind.
Thus, these past few months can be said to be the most satisfying months Lin Ran has had recently.
Not only is the Alliance getting stronger, Zhang Jie is also getting stronger in every way—this period's days have basically been a drilling‑beauty for Lin Ran.
Cough cough, although sometimes she can't stand it and runs away, overall Lin Ran is quite satisfied.
Especially, five or six months have passed, and no one like Yunxiao Yu Xiaomo has shown up to vie for Old Zhang—just that alone is enough to satisfy Lin Ran.
Although one must always guard against others, this small matter is no longer enough to bother Lin Ran.
Whether there's something or not, a beating settles it all!
And Zhang Jie's Elementary Cognition has also reached its peak, the Genius Value also reached 130%, which could be considered entering a bottleneck.
In between were the simulations of the stone person and the fish-head person; Zhang Jie also ran two more simulations, basically all of them were simple.
Until Zhang Jie opened the simulation again in the new month.
