A Core Ship From The Start
/ A Core Ship From The Start Chapter 558 – Chapter 558 Chapter 414 Cross
Chapter 558: Chapter 414: Cross-Century Communication_1 Chapter 558: Chapter 414: Cross-Century Communication_1 “What is that?”
Watching the mech in front of him smashed into scrap metal, Li Longcheng was dumbfounded. However, what followed was even more shocking to him.
Upon sensing enemies attacking from behind, the Batarei people immediately reversed their guns and launched an attack against the dark, enormous figure. However, their attacks were futile. The heavy cannon fire that could tear through vehicles didn't leave a trace on the Dark Giant's body. Instead, the Dark Giant swung its War Hammer with force. In the next moment, Li saw the Batarei people in front of him directly crushed into the ground by the whirlwind caused by the War Hammer, turned into a pool of meat like a frog crushed by a wheel.
This has to be a joke!
Seeing this, Li Longcheng couldn't even believe his own eyes. Although these Batarei people seemed to be without any defenses, in reality, they were all equipped with small shield generators. These shields can even withstand some large rocket attacks. However, the opponent swung its hammer head, and it directly broke through the shields of these Batarei people and instantly killed them?
“Boom—!”
Just as the Dark Giant cleared the surrounding Batarei people with one strike, another automatic mech also turned and rushed towards him. However, the Dark Giant didn't even glance at it. With a backhand swing of the hammer, he gave the automatic mech a home-run, completely knocking it out of the sky, disintegrating it into a large pile of debris in mid-air.
Seeing this, including Li Longcheng, everyone was stunned.
They had fought with the Tuggy people before and based on their experience, whether it was the human civilization here or the alien civilization, they basically had two layers of protection. The outer layer was a small shield and the inner layer was armor. It is precisely because of this that in a fight, one must find a way to break the shield first, then the armor, and finally to kill the opponent.
In addition, shields can recover, so fighting can be very grueling. Many times a stalemate occurs where neither side can kill the other.
The fact that Li Longcheng and his subordinates were able to withstand the attack of the Batarei people, who were many times greater in number than themselves, was also due to this.
Even the automatic mecha were equipped with shields. However, these shields, in front of this Dark Giant, were like paper, utterly meaningless. Li Longcheng even saw that when the Dark Giant's War Hammer struck out, the shield of the automatic mecha directly shattered, disappearing in less than a millisecond.
This is absolutely like a dream!
But ….. why does this Dark Giant look a bit familiar?
At this time, the battle had completely ended. With the final batch of Batarei people killed, the place became calm again. The Dark Giant also put away his War Hammer and turned to look at them. Seeing this, the others instinctively gripped their weapons tightly.
“Ah ….. ahh………”
Just when Li Longcheng was about to stand up and say something, he saw Dr. Herman, who was tied up next to him, suddenly brighten up, yell, and rush forward, only to be caught by Li Longcheng.
“Wait, what are you doing?”
“The same! The same as what we saw before!!”
“Huh?”
Hearing Dr. Herman's words, Li Longcheng was taken aback, and then he turned his stare towards the beacon in astonishment. He finally understood why Dr. Herman was so excited!
The reason was simple. The Dark Giant that appeared in front of them was wearing armor that was almost the same as the blue warriors they had seen in the beacon projections!
They had the same towering stature, heavy armor adorned with skull decorations, and a very similar silhouette. The only difference was that the ones that appeared in the projection were blue, while this giant was black.
“Don't fire, put down your weapons!!”
At this moment, Li Longcheng hurriedly instructed his people to put down their weapons. He then stood up, staring at the giant in front of him, took a deep breath, and stepped forward.
So tall…!
Although he had thought that the opponent was very tall before, it wasn't until Li Longcheng stood in front of the Dark Giant that he realized that he was only waist high to the other party. Considering that Li Longcheng, as a soldier, was also big built, standing at a full 1.8 meters, he felt like a child next to this giant.
“Hello, I'm Star Alliance General Li Longcheng, may I ask…”
Hearing Li Longcheng's question, the Dark Giant paused for a moment, then took off his helmet, revealing a face…….
“Hiss—-!”
Looking at the face in front of him, even Li Longcheng inhaled sharply, his body swaying and almost collapsing to the ground.
As a soldier, he had seen quite a few aliens, but ….. he had never seen a human look so fierce!
“Hello, I'm the Great Judge of the Tribunal, Duanmu Huai.”
Looking at Li Longcheng, Duanmu Huai gave a laugh. Although Li Longcheng was trembling a bit, he kept his gaze on Duanmu Huai.
“Can I ask, what exactly is this lump……”
“I know what you want to ask.”
Duanmu Huai waved his hand, interrupting Li Longcheng's words.
“Yes, we specifically followed you here and we have already guessed that you would be attacked. The reason we came here was to thwart the schemes of that group of idiots, as for us, you're better off alive than dead.”
“Phew……”
On hearing this, Li Longcheng breathed a sigh of relief. He initially wondered how these people had managed to show up coincidentally, but surprisingly the other party was very straightforward… … but… … Tribunal? What is this organization?
“My fleet…”
“Your fleet was misled away, it will take at least an hour to return.”
Duanmu Huai glanced around and then found a place to sit down.
“So, let's have a good talk.”
“… …Of course, there is no problem.”
As a matter of fact, that was also Li Longcheng's strategy, so he immediately perked up and let the others guard the surroundings. Then, he sat down across from Duanmu Huai. At this moment, Dr. Herman also joined in, with an enthusiastic face staring at him… …it must be said, being stared at by a man in this way was rather uncomfortable for Duanmu Huai.
“Who is this…?”
“Doctor Herman, he is a scholar who studies ancient ruins…”
“Oh, okay…”
Duanmu Huai withdrew his gaze and looked again at Li Longcheng.
“I know you have a lot of questions to ask, but before that, let me introduce you to the situation of the Tribunal.”
For Duanmu Huai, this had become second nature. He could not even be bothered to speak anymore, just as he had done with Maria. He directly took out a holographic imaging promotional film of the Tribunal and played it.
It must be said, this way was indeed very convenient, at least… …after watching the whole promotional film, Li Longcheng had already understood the origin of the Tribunal, as well as the history of the Human Empire… …And Dr. Herman beside him, was even more excited, shivering all over. If not for being held back by soldiers, he could not restrain himself from jumping up!
“… …So, you mean, we are descendants of the Human Empire?”
“Mmm, one of them, or so far, you could say that you are the best developed amongst these human civilizations.”
“Really… …”
At this, Li Longcheng's face shows a smile. Honestly, when he learned that there was not just one human civilization in this universe, Li Longcheng was also very tense. But now hearing Duanmu Huai saying that the Star Union was the best developed one among these human civilizations… …this not only relieved him but also made him feel very proud.
To be honest, although the whole story sounds very absurd, Li Longcheng tends to believe that this is reality——After all, no matter what, the fact that the humans once unified the whole Milky Way, if true, would be a great stimulus and positive news for the people of the Star Union!
However……
“Wait, wait, Your Honor! What about the Prolo Deity? The Prolo Deity…!”
At this point Dr. Herman could not hold back anymore and began to inquire, to which Duanmu Huai simply shrugged.
“Oh, it's quite normal actually, after the collapse of the Human Empire, these guys seized the vacuum opportunity to take over those territories… …well, it's just like when there's no tiger in the hill the monkey will be king.”
As for the Prolo Deity, the player in the game has also verified it. The final conclusion is that the Prolo Deity is from a vassal race of the Human Empire, at that time it was under the jurisdiction of the Thirteenth Brother. After the black hole plan, all species in the whole Milky Way suffered a devastating blow, only the Prolo Deity, whether they're lucky or what, avoided the disaster. Afterward, they quickly seized this opportunity to expand, occupying most of the territory of the Human Empire.
The final fact proved that aliens are always aliens. These idiots still messed up and killed themselves.
Of course, Duanmu Huai is altogether unfazed by this, or to say the Prolo Deity should consider themselves lucky that they went extinct early, otherwise today, they would definitely have a place on the Tribunal's blacklist.
“Okay.”
Duanmu Huai directly returns to the matter at hand, once again looking at Li Longcheng.
“Now that you know about our Tribunal, you should understand why we saved you, right?”
“… …you hope that I can lead the Star Union to resist the aliens?”
“Exactly.”
Duanmu Huai nodded.
“Any act of submission to the alien species is an unforgivable heresy. The dignity and honor of humans are inviolable! There's no excuse for the Tribunal to accept this!”
“But… …even if it's us, it is impossible to fight against the entire Divine Assembly Council… …”
“I am well aware, so the Tribunal will also fight with you side by side. We do not need to completely obliterate them, but we should let them know that humans are not the lowly aliens that can be manipulated at will!”
Li Longcheng didn't say a word, but nodded heavily. Although he is not as extreme as Duanmu Huai, he agrees with Duanmu Huai's argument in his heart.
Humans will never yield to any threat from alien races!
“So, what should we do?”
“Hehe.”
Hearing Li Longcheng's question, Duanmu Huai chuckled.
“I have a proposal…”
