Chapter 99: The Arrival of Nuo Lan Shan

"Wu, notify Luo Feng, Hong, and Lei Shen, and also order all defense bases in the asteroid belt to engage at range," Xiao Yu commanded.

At the same time, with a swing of his right hand, a blood‑red disc‑shaped spacecraft appeared before him, its hatch opened, Xiao Yu flew in, and boarded the D9‑class Universe Spaceship to rush toward the asteroid belt.

Sitting in the chair of the control room, Xiao Yu's consciousness entered the Virtual Cosmic Network.

Virtual Universe, Heilongshan Island, Ziming Bay.

In the quiet room, Xiao Yu, Hong, Lei Shen, and Luo Feng sat on the sofa.

"Third brother, my elder brother and second brother are already heading to the asteroid belt," Luo Feng said.

Luo Feng had been on Earth these past two days; after learning the news, he set off with Hong and Lei Shen.

"No matter who the newcomers are, since they act silently and strike outright, it shows they are enemies, not friends," Hong whispered, "We must intercept the enemy outside the asteroid belt."

"Elder brother, second brother, fourth brother, I have five minutes left before reaching the asteroid belt," Xiao Yu said. "And the opponent should still need three and a half hours to reach the asteroid belt. During this time, our various bases sent no fewer than a hundred communication requests to the opponent, all of which were ignored."

"The opponent is probably the Nuo Lan Shan family we discussed earlier; it's highly likely that Nuo Lan Shan himself has arrived," Lei Shen said.

"I will try to have Baba Ta breach the opponent's spacecraft," Luo Feng said.

"Luo Feng, I've already acted, but the opponent's AI defense is tighter; it will take eight minutes to handle," the little demon Baba Ta's figure appeared on Luo Feng's shoulder.

"Xiao Yu, bring me a cup of Emerald Jade juice," Baba Ta requested.

Emerald Jade juice is one of the flavored drinks launched by the Earth Commercial Alliance Company within the Virtual Universe; because of its unique taste, it quickly became popular among citizens of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire. The juice costs only 100 Black Dragon Coins per cup.

The Earth Commercial Alliance Company has released only four flavors in total; Emerald Jade juice is the most popular and best‑selling, reaching one hundred billion cups in its first year.

A beautiful Dreambe tribe woman brought a cup of Emerald Jade juice; Baba Ta took it, drank it in one gulp, and exclaimed, "That really exhausted me!"

After a while.

"Xiao Yu, we have already reached the asteroid belt, and the various probes we deployed throughout the Solar System have locked onto the opponent's spacecraft," Wu, having taken the form of a youth, floated before Xiao Yu.

The blood‑red spacecraft did not stop; it passed through the asteroid belt, continuing toward Neptune.

"Elder brother, second brother, I won't wait for you; I'm going to intercept them first," Xiao Yu said.

"Third brother, even though your spacecraft is equipped with three D6-level orbital cannons, you must not be careless; be sure to act cautiously," Hong warned.

Suddenly, Baba Ta laughed, "Ha ha, in front of the great Baba Ta all intelligent defenses are child's play; in less than six minutes I breached the opponent and hacked into their system."

A screen suddenly appeared before the four of them, showing a figure; the four stared at the silhouette for a moment.

"Nuo Lan Shan!"

"Sure enough, it's him!"

"Just as elder brother predicted!"

"Elder brother, second brother, don't worry; this time we'll make sure he never returns," Xiao Yu laughed. He had been a bit worried when he heard Nuo Lan Shan had fled, but didn't expect the opponent to charge straight at them.

One and a half hours later.

Xiao Yu sat upright on the control room's sofa and activated the panoramic simulation.

"Xiao Yu, our spacecraft is still 20 million kilometers from the opponent; we expect to meet them in forty seconds."

"Wu, forcefully block the opponent's communications, and ready the three D6-level orbital cannons simultaneously," Xiao Yu ordered.

The next second, a man wearing a green battle suit, with slightly pointed ears and a face chiseled like a knife, appeared on the big screen.

"Nuo Lan Shan, the Solar System is Sanfu Mountain's territory!" Xiao Yu shouted.

"Ha ha, I admit I underestimated you before, and that's why I took a big fall!" Nuo Lan Shan said in a low voice. "However, this time you cannot escape; the vendetta for the annihilation of my clan must be avenged!"

"Wu, I have no idea who gave Nuo Lan Shan that confidence!" Xiao Yu transmitted.

"Xiao Yu, the ship's sensors have detected on the opponent's spacecraft one Domain Lord first‑tier elite and one Universe‑level eighth‑tier elite," Wu reminded.

The distance between them had closed to three million kilometers, within the detection range of the D9‑class Universe Spaceship.

"Wu, this time it may depend on you," Xiao Yu transmitted.

On the silver‑gray triangular spacecraft.

Just after ending the call with the opposing ship, Nuo Lan Shan was preparing to use a Fourth-tier Primal Force Weapon to eliminate the enemy.

"Warning!"

"Warning!"

"Large‑scale energy reaction detected on the opponent's spacecraft; please execute avoidance maneuvers!" the ship's AI continuously warned.

A thirty‑centimeter solid D‑class core metal sphere, accelerated to sub‑light speed, struck the energy shield of the silver‑gray spacecraft; the shield held for only a second before shattering, and the metal sphere dented a large section of the control room's metal panel.

Then, from the blood‑red spacecraft, two consecutive light beams hit the control room; this time the orbital cannon's projectile bypassed the energy shield's deceleration and struck directly inside, piercing the silver‑gray spacecraft's control room.

A cannon shell surged straight toward the dodging Nuo Lan Shan.

"Careful!" the green‑scaled man shouted, his body colliding with Nuo Lan Shan and hurling him out of the spacecraft, while the green‑scaled man was hit by an orbital cannon shell, his chest pierced, leaving only the edge of his chest attached to the lower half of his head.

"Baikalu!" Nuo Lan Shan shouted, charging toward the blood‑red disc‑shaped spacecraft.

At the same time, he was secretly alarmed that Xiao Yu actually possessed D‑class orbital cannons—not just one, but three.

Inside the blood‑red disc‑shaped spacecraft.

Xiao Yu watched his three D6-level orbital cannons do their work, destroying the opponent's spacecraft into ruins.

"Xiao Yu, D6-level orbital cannons are hard to affect a Domain Lord‑level elite who is already prepared," Wu reminded.

"Then let's go straight ahead; I also want to see if this D7-level Mechanical Race battle suit really works as they claim!" Xiao Yu laughed.

Wearing a black D7-level Mechanical Race battle suit, with a Fourth-tier Thunder Electric Tribe Force Armor underneath, and outside that a Universe-level Ninth-tier Mo Cloud Vine‑formed armor, Xiao Yu, protected by these three layers, stepped out of the spacecraft, swung his right hand, and the blood‑red spacecraft was drawn into the Space Ring.

"The opponent is coming!" Wu warned.

As soon as Wu finished speaking, a blade of light flashed; Xiao Yu hadn't reacted before his body was blasted backward, but all the impact was absorbed by the D7-level Mechanical Race battle suit, leaving him unscathed.

"Wu, go!" Xiao Yu transmitted.

The invisible Wu silently flew toward Nuo Lan Shan, thousands of kilometers away.

"What battle suit is that kid Xiao Yu wearing? He survived my full‑force strike unscathed? Could it be a Mechanical Race battle suit?" Nuo Lan Shan had heard of the Mechanical Race battle suit; it's a luxury only the wealthy of Qian Wu Universe Country can afford.
