Chapter 386: The Dominator's Arrival, the Void Black Snake, and the Flamefire Battleship Captain
"Damn, is this a Third-Stage member of the Radiance Star Tower? If not for its thousand-meter-long hull, who would believe that this is an attack launched by a cruiser?"
"Before, our leader kept emphasizing that the members of the Radiance Star Tower are not from the same world as us ordinary folks. He told us not to compare ourselves with them, but I didn't want to believe it at the time. Now it seems that his words were absolutely right!"
...
The thirty-six giant sword illusions, each a million meters long, left a profound impression on countless members of the Frandia Kingdom fleet. This might become a topic of boasting for them after their retirement. However, in Song Chi's eyes and those of the high-ranking Flame Keeper captains, it was far from enough.
The thirty-six Celestial Quantum Sword Lights were indeed astonishing, directly killing two of the Fourth-Rank Eight-Armed Serpent Demons and leaving noticeable injuries on the others.
But it was still not enough; it could only delay the Eight-Armed Serpent Demons' advance.
Song Chi didn't show too much surprise at this outcome, feeling that it was within reason.
The Celestial Quantum Sword Turret was undoubtedly an excellent main cannon.
However, the problem was the rank of the Cob Alt Number itself.
Additionally, the Serpent Magic Incarnation unleashed by the Fourth-Rank Eight-Armed Serpent Demons was not just for show, and their extraordinary physiques allowed them to directly kill two of their kind.
Although his strike couldn't be considered a game-changer, it did buy enough time for the Immortal Phoenix. By the time the other Fourth-Rank members of the Star Tower arrived, the situation had already turned in their favor.
With the support of the Star Tower members, it was impossible for the remaining ten Fourth-Rank Eight-Armed Serpent Demons to break through the Great Wall's defenses in a short time, and that was enough.
Although the battlefield was stabilized, Song Chi didn't feel optimistic. Overall, the Flame Keeper humans were still at a disadvantage.
In the distance, the Dreadnought, transformed into a mechanized form, wielded a golden long spear and fought against three Sixth-Rank Eight-Armed Serpent Demons.
Even with the empowerment of the golden holy domain-level long spear, the ten-thousand-meter-tall mechanized giant formed from the Corpse Dog Command Ship was still at a disadvantage. All three Eight-Armed Serpent Demons had activated their Serpent Magic Incarnations, and their vertical pupils occasionally shot out petrifying rays.
Under these circumstances, even with two control-immune components installed on the Corpse Dog's ship, it was still challenging to completely ignore the petrifying rays.
As time passed, the direction of the battle became increasingly clear.
Just as Song Chi was considering whether to try to provide support to the Corpse Dog by borrowing the traits of "Time Stop," "Celestial Quantum Sword Light," and "Soul Annihilation Eye Beam," a strange change occurred above the Great Wall.
Riiip!
Under the protection of the colorful mythical artifact, the Civilization Great Wall, a pitch-black crack suddenly appeared in the void, which had been stabilized by the seven-colored light. Just as all the Flame Keeper captains were astonished, an indescribable giant black claw, with just its sharp claws spanning a length of ten thousand meters, struggled to reach out from the crack, which was about to be repaired by the colorful light.
A glimmer of fear flashed in Song Chi's eyes as he clearly sensed the immense pressure from this unknown giant claw, which was many times stronger than the Extreme Fearless Fleet commanded by the Corpse Dog.
"This..."
Before he could think further, the ten-thousand-meter-tall mechanized giant formed from the Corpse Dog's Command Ship had already taken action.
"I was wondering how these Eight-Armed Serpent Demons got up here. So, it turns out that this Half-Step Seventh-Rank Void Snake has stepped into the Dominator Rank. But beneath its feet is the Civilization Great Wall of my Flame Keeper humans, not your Imperial City of the Sea. Don't even think about using the same trick again!"
His words sounded casual, but inside the mechanized giant, the Corpse Dog's eyes were filled with gravity.
Although he had fought this Void Snake several times over the years, it was only a Half-Step Seventh-Rank back then, and it could barely suppress him.
The situation was different now. This Void Snake had taken that crucial step and entered the Dominator Rank. If it were to send the second batch of Eight-Armed Serpent Demons, it would only be a matter of time before the entire defense line collapsed.
With this thought in mind, his gaze became resolute.
With a shift in his intent, a strand of starlight suddenly shot out from beneath the Radiance Star Tower.
After summoning the Radiance Star Tower, he immediately activated the Radiance Star Arrival secret technique without hesitation.
Above his head, in the starry sky beyond the reach of the Civilization Great Wall, another void crack appeared, and although it was small, strands of starlight were already leaking out.
However, the three Sixth-Rank Eight-Armed Serpent Demons, well-prepared, didn't give the Corpse Dog a chance.
They simultaneously activated another of their innate abilities, Sky Serpent Devour.
The Serpent Magic Incarnations behind them, tens of thousands of meters tall, began to transform rapidly. Slowly, a giant serpent illusion emerged among the eight arms of the serpent demons, intertwining with the Serpent Magic Incarnations as if they were originally one.
As the three giant serpent illusions solidified, their serpent mouths opened to an exaggerated degree and rapidly bit towards the mechanized giant.
The attack of the sky serpent illusion prevented the Corpse Dog from continuing to summon the Radiance Star projection. This caused the seven-colored radiance, which had been strengthened by the strands of starlight, to dim, and the black claw that had been restrained by the colorful light was now free to tear at the void crack rapidly.
In a daze, the Heavy Plume, which was exerting its full strength, captured a massive creature behind the void crack. It was a serpentine creature over ten thousand kilometers long, with a black body and four black claws, resembling an Eastern black dragon.
In the midst of its colossal body, Song Chi perceived an abundance of perfectly balanced Spatial Laws.
Furthermore, Song Chi noticed a Void Sphere constructed from perfected Void Laws within one of its front claws, containing hundreds of thousands of Eight-Armed Serpent Demons.
Evidently, this was the second batch of demons the deity intended to send to the Great Wall.
And from its appearance, it seemed the plan was about to succeed.
Witnessing this, Song Chi's ethereal energy surged within him, instinctively urging him to activate the Star Sea Bazaar Token within his Flamefire Ancestral Nexus.
In this situation, the only solution he could think of was to activate the Marketplace Projection Token, using his own projection to intervene and see if he could stop this from happening.
Before he could act further, a faint and indifferent voice reached his ears.
Not only Song Chi, but also the tens of thousands of Flame Ship Captains on the Great Wall, and even the millions of Eight-Armed Serpent Demons, all heard this indifferent voice.
"For a Dominator to personally intervene, Black Snake, you've crossed the line!"
As the words fell, a machine armor shadow, towering at ten thousand kilometers, appeared above the Radiance Star Tower. It merely glanced down at the spatial rift above the Great Wall.
The next moment, all living beings present felt a dazzling starlight, and before they could comprehend what was happening, a roar that echoed throughout the entire starry sky emanated from the spatial rift above the wall.
"@/{} (Thief)!"
As the roar subsided, the starlight also quietly dissipated.
The Flame Ship Captains turned around, only to find that all traces of the Eight-Armed Serpent Demons above the fourth rank had vanished from the Great Wall, leaving behind only the second and third-rank demons.
Without a second thought, it was clear that the owner of the massive black claw had been startled away by the Star Annihilation Battle Frame projection from the Radiance Star Tower, and in its haste, it only managed to take the fourth-rank and above demons, abandoning the rest.
Without the higher-ranked demons, these second and third-rank demons were naturally powerless to resist the subsequent fleet's cleanup, and within an hour, hundreds of thousands of them were thoroughly eliminated.
Of course, the subsequent cleanup work did not require the trouble of the Star Tower members; all members immediately returned to the Star Tower.
Not only Song Chi, but also several members who had joined the Star Tower in the past few hundred years, were filled with curiosity about the newly appeared Star Annihilation Battle Frame projection.
Instinctively, they wondered if this was the Star Master of their Star Tower, the great being known as the Radiance Star Master by outsiders.
Midway, an unexpected event occurred, as "Zhuoyang" proactively brought over the two fourth-rank Eight-Armed Serpent Demons that Song Chi had previously slain.
Song Chi was delighted by this, as although he wasn't lacking in fourth-rank biological essence blood, the corpses of two fourth-rank beings were still quite valuable, and they seemed to possess several Celestial Oddities.
Back inside the tower, the Corpse Dog, who had already recalled his warship, seemed to know what everyone was thinking.
He shook his head.
"The one who just appeared is not the current Star Master of my Radiance Star Tower, but the 2nd-ranked 'Thief' ahead of me."
Hearing this, everyone's interest grew even more.
They had assumed that their Star Tower only had one seventh-rank great power, the Star Master, but they never expected there to be two such beings.
Seeing the curious gazes of Song Chi and the others, the Corpse Dog and several of the highest-ranked members of the Star Tower exchanged glances, then sighed:
"It's not easy to talk about this person. You'll naturally find out about it in the future!"
???
This vague statement left everyone with questions, but since the highest-ranked members were unwilling to say more, no one pressed further. It seemed that they didn't want to tell them, but rather, there was a hidden story.
As they were pondering this, the Corpse Dog spoke again:
"By the way, everyone performed well, especially Thunder Awakens. Your sword array's might is indeed impressive. The corresponding points will be automatically credited to your Star Token accounts. Well, if there's nothing else, let's disperse!"
Even as most of the members left, Song Chi continued to ponder the matter of the "Thief."
A Star Annihilation Fleet Commander, a being of the Star Shattering Dominator rank, why would such a high-level figure be difficult to mention? Could it be that his lifespan was nearing its end?
This was the first possibility that came to his mind.
However, he felt that it was unlikely, as far as he knew, beings of the Star Annihilation Fleet Commander rank had lifespans exceeding ten thousand years. Could it be such a coincidence that his lifespan was about to end just as he had joined the Radiance Star Tower?
As he was thinking, he suddenly heard the voice of his senior brother, Zhuoyang.
"Little brother Thunder Awakens, what about the Neutron Star Remnant? By the way, I asked you about it a few years ago, but you never replied!"
Song Chi's eyes lit up, and he explained:
"Yes, of course, I want it. I've been in seclusion for the past twenty years, comprehending the Laws. My apologies!"
"No problem. If you want it, I'll go back and ask when that person is free, and let you know. It should just be a matter of these few days. Just make sure you arrange your time accordingly."
"Okay, it's perfect timing since I've accumulated ten days of real-body login time. But brother, you have to tell me, that..."
Before he could finish, Zhuoyang quickly said:
"Rest assured, I'll take care of it..."
Seeing the carefree manner of his senior brother, Song Chi didn't dare to say anything further.
