Chapter 312: Meditation Seal - Outer - Initial Display of Time Stop
Chapter 312: Meditation Seal - Outer - Initial Display of Time Stop
Not just Song Chi, all the guests were momentarily bewildered, completely unaware of the means the suddenly appearing cruiser had used.
After all, this was Annie Dusk, the current direct-line sequence of the Dusk Marquis family, not just any ordinary cruiser captain.
It was precisely because of this that the guests in the manor found it even harder to believe.
...
As everyone's expressions fluctuated and their thoughts varied, the suddenly appearing cruiser in the sky showed no signs of stopping. It seemed to want Annie to pay a price for her previous overstep.
Seeing this, Annie's counterpart, Answei, who was the main guest of the banquet, could no longer remain indifferent.
"Enough, Anlock!"
First, she used her ether energy to amplify her voice, making it resonate throughout the entire manor. Then, the light in her brow center condensed, and she summoned her flagship.
After boarding her warship, Answei maneuvered it into the air, quickly ascending to the side of Annie's flagship.
"Anlock, continuing this will do you no good. Know your limits!"
Hearing Answei's words, Anlock, the man in the opposing cruiser, remained calm. He continued to focus his mind, charging the main cannon on his warship.
Since he had decided to teach the other party a lesson, he always kept his word.
He then spoke, his voice following closely:
"Answei, are you sure the one causing trouble is me? The Grand Duke has already agreed to the alliance with my Stark family!"
His calm words were unmasked, and as he spoke, almost all the guests in the Saint Roland Manor heard them clearly.
For a moment, the expressions on everyone's faces were incredibly varied.
Clearly, this was the result of an unwilling marriage alliance orchestrated by the Morning Star Royal Family.
As for the "Grand Duke" mentioned by Anlock, everyone understood that it was not referring to the Duke of Rosetta but the current Morning Star Duke, Hunter Star, a Fourth-Rank Peak Flame Torch Captain.
Otherwise, Answei and her Fourth Prince brother would not dare to openly resist.
After these words, Answei's expression darkened, while Anlock remained unconcerned. In a short time, the main cannon of his flagship had completed its charge.
Boom!
Intense light erupted, and a terrifying beam of energy shot out from the cannon, quickly striking Annie's flagship's energy shield.
When the energy shockwave dissipated, Annie's flagship's energy shield, though not overloaded, had dimmed significantly.
Seeing this, everyone had some guesses. The main cannon on Anlock's flagship clearly had a special effect to penetrate shields. Otherwise, it would be impossible to reduce Annie's flagship's shield value by more than half with a single strike. If their guess was correct, the result of the next strike would be obvious.
In fact, Anlock had no intention of stopping. Although he could not sink Annie's flagship in public due to her status, he at least had to damage more than half of her ship's armor. Otherwise, anyone would dare to challenge his authority in the future.
In the manor below, Sain Morningstar looked pleadingly at Luchuan and Blackstone Eagle beside him. The three exchanged glances, and Luchuan and Blackstone Eagle, though hesitant, still summoned their flagships.
To be invited to Answei's birthday banquet, they were already relatively close to Answei or Sain. Now that the Fourth Prince sought help, it was hard for them to refuse.
Above the sky, Anlock's peripheral vision caught this scene, and his expression darkened.
Although he was the current direct-line sequence of the Stark family and could generally suppress the mainline members of the Morning Star Principality's major forces in a one-on-one confrontation, the situation would be entirely different if multiple mainline members acted together.
At this moment, a slight spatial fluctuation appeared in the sky, and when the newcomer was identified, the entire manor fell into chaos once again.
"Third Prince!"
Indeed, the newcomer was the current Third Prince of the Principality's royal family, the one who was most at odds with the Fourth Prince, Sain.
"Luchuan, Blackstone, this is a matter between the Morning Star and Stark families. Stay out of it!"
The two, who were already reluctant, immediately found an excuse to step down and recalled their flagships.
Compared to the interlude below, the situation above the sky remained tense.
Even though Answei had positioned her flagship directly in front of Annie's, Anlock's main cannon continued to charge without any pause, his determination unwavering.
Finally, a guest in the manor below could no longer stand it. A cruiser rapidly appeared and shot into the sky.
Boom!
Anlock fired the main cannon again, this time at an odd angle to avoid Answei's flagship, aiming straight for Annie's side. However, it was blocked by the sudden appearance of an unfamiliar cruiser.
Buzz!
The beam struck the unfamiliar cruiser's energy shield, almost depleting three-quarters of its value. However, the cruiser's energy shield components were of high quality, preventing it from collapsing directly.
This sudden change thoroughly enraged Anlock.
It was one thing for the mainline members of the Morning Star Principality to oppose him, but now another reckless individual had appeared, completely enraging the brutality within him.
Click! Click! Click!
The two main cannons at the prow of his cruiser retracted and transformed into a special ramming horn, glowing coldly. Under Anlock's control, the 1,200-meter-long cruiser turned into a blur, charging like a raging steel behemoth towards the newly appeared unfamiliar cruiser.
Everything happened in an instant, leaving Answei no time to react.
Boom!
With a sharp metallic collision, the unfamiliar cruiser was thrown several kilometers away, a massive rift appearing on its side.
Anlock showed no mercy towards the unfamiliar cruiser. After the first strike, a second collision followed immediately, giving the other party no chance to breathe.
Seeing this, the unfamiliar cruiser was not without a response. Since it had dared to intervene, it naturally had some confidence. The protective characteristics of its orange hull armor were activated, and its engines ran at full capacity, attempting to dodge.
However, Anlock actively withdrew the control effect on Annie's flagship and transferred it to the unfamiliar cruiser.
Instantly, the unfamiliar cruiser, like Annie's flagship before, froze in place.
Boom!
Another powerful collision, and despite the protection of the armor layer, the unfamiliar cruiser's hull was significantly damaged.
But this was far from over. Under Anlock's brutal gaze, the third, fourth, and fifth collisions continued with the special ramming horn.
As time passed, the hull of this unfamiliar cruiser had been damaged by over 50%. If this continued, there was a risk of it sinking.
At this moment, Annie's stern voice finally came through as she returned from her state of stagnation.
"Stop, he is a member of the Dinghai Song Clan..."
As she spoke, Annie had already established communication with the unfamiliar cruiser, her urgent voice echoing.
"Xiao Bei..."
"Nie'er..."
...
The Saint Roland Manor was in an uproar. The events that had unfolded in this short period were already chaotic enough, and now the last major power of the Principality, the Dinghai Song Clan, had been dragged into the mess, making it even more chaotic.
However, for the majority of the guests who were more interested in the spectacle, their interest was heightened even further.
Unlike these people, Song Chi, sitting in the corner, instinctively frowned.
"Really a clansman?"
This cruiser had actively concealed its own name, and outsiders could not directly identify it, so Song Chi could not be certain at the moment.
At this moment, under Annie's persuasion, the unfamiliar cruiser finally revealed its name and bowed to Anlock.
"Sir Anlock, your flagship's combat power is truly extraordinary, I am ashamed of my inferiority..."
Below, a peculiar expression flashed across Song Chi's eyes.
"Northern... is it Xiao Bei? When did he become so close to An Ni'er of the Dusk Marquis Family?"
Meanwhile, in the main control room of the Northern, Song Bei, whose face was still somewhat pale, was being scolded by an elderly voice.
"Do you now understand the gap between you and the top prodigies? The other party is a direct descendant of an immortal power, and even a pseudo-immortal power that has fallen from its position is not something the current Northern can match. Xiao Bei, your future road is still very..."
Before the rest of the words could be fully spoken, a violent tremor came again.
It was clear that Anlock's flagship was once again charging forward, and soon, the emergency warning in the Northern sounded again.
[The warship has been attacked. The current ship armor is 90% damaged, and the hull is 75% damaged. Please repair as soon as possible!]
In the main control room of the 1,200-meter cruiser, Anlock's eyes were filled with coldness.
A member of the Dinghai Song Clan? If it were a direct descendant, he might give them some face, but this cruiser was clearly not one of the current direct descendants of the Song Clan. Therefore, he had no need to hold back.
As a prodigy of the Radiant Han Kingdom and a direct descendant of the Stark Family, crushing an ordinary member of a major power in the Principality was nothing he believed the Dinghai Song Clan, which had not even reached the Sixth Rank, would make a big fuss over.
Because he was certain of this, Anlock did not hold back at all, attacking with full force.
"Anlock, you dare!"
Annie's sharp voice rang out, but it did nothing to stop Anlock.
...
"Remember, this is the price of offending the Stark Family!"
The cold voice echoed from the 1,200-meter warship, Anlock Stark using this to inform all the guests present and even certain people in the Morning Star Principality that even though the Stark Family was tens of thousands of light-years away, they were not to be trifled with by just anyone.
Just as his flagship was about to collide with the Northern and sink it, a 1,300-meter cruiser enveloped in a Five-Color Light Shield suddenly appeared from the sky.
In the next second, its hull disappeared from the sky and reappeared in front of the Northern.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Sharp metal collision sounds echoed as the two cruisers, both with astonishing lengths, crashed into each other.
Compared to the Northern, the cruiser enveloped in the Five-Color Light Shield remained steadily suspended in place, as if it had not been affected by the terrifying impact at all.
Below, guests were exclaiming in surprise.
"Five-Color Light Shield, it's the one from the Dinghai Song Clan!"
"Indeed, the Song Clan's protective nature is passed down through generations. They didn't show up for so long, but as soon as their clansman was bullied, they immediately came!"
"Haha, who could say otherwise? It's just not clear whether the seventh sequence of the Song Clan is stronger or weaker than Anlock."
In a corner of the manor, a guest casually chatted near Song Chi.
With his brainwave beacon controlling the Sky Dome and most of his mind focused on the warship, Song Chi could only respond casually.
In the sky, Anlock's expression in the warship was extremely dark. Everything that had happened today seemed to be deliberately targeting him, nothing went smoothly.
His instincts told him that it was best not to provoke the major powers in the Morning Star Principality.
As the saying goes, even a powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake, and the Stark Family today was not even a powerful dragon, at most a dragon that had a long lineage.
However, the anger in his heart made it impossible for him to back down and lose face.
So, in the end, the Sky Dome, enveloped in the Five-Color Light Shield, took the initiative.
Since obtaining the "Bodhimanda Meditation Seal" component, this was the first time Song Chi used the "Meditation Seal·Outer·Time Stop" feature.
At this moment, Anlock felt his mind completely freeze, as if everything around him had paused.
In the next second, the two main cannons of the Sky Dome, which had already been fully charged, erupted.
The Mixed Cave Extreme Yang Sword Intent Divine Light
The Soul-Annihilating Gaze Light
Two attacks, carrying the aura of destruction, landed on Anlock's flagship one after another.
In less than three seconds, the red-quality energy shield of Anlock's flagship completely overloaded, and the two attacks then struck its hull armor.
Because the entire time around him was completely paused, the hull armor, which had not activated its protective features, quickly suffered over 40% damage. If it were hit a few more times, Anlock's flagship might have sunk on the spot.
However, this was clearly impossible, because the moment the energy shield component of the other party completely overloaded, a 3,500-meter Zelusui Ship appeared in the sky.
This Zelusui Ship did not belong to the Stark Family but came from the Morning Star Royal Family, sent by the current Morning Star Duke to protect Anlock.
As one of the current direct descendants of the Stark Family, Anlock could not have anything happen to him in the Morning Star Principality.
Song Chi was very clear that although this Zelusui Ship had not taken any other actions, its appearance already represented a warning.
A warning to stop when he had gone too far.
In response, Song Chi would not foolishly challenge the authority of a veteran Zelusui Ship of the Morning Star family.
The Sky Dome's engines roared, and the warship soared into the sky, quickly disappearing from the horizon of the Morning Star Yang Land.
