Chapter 394: Wind Behemoth, the Red Hyperpower Controller
This kind of transit routine lasted for more than a month.
After more than a month of intermittent travel, the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship finally entered the central star domain of the Radiant Han Kingdom.
The central six star domains of the Radiant Han Kingdom are each more than three times the size of ordinary star domains, and they are also densely populated with floating continents. As a result, each star domain is home to numerous powerful forces, unlike the Morning Star Kingdom, where a single family often controls an entire star domain.
As one of the central six star domains, the Dark Han Star Domain is considered moderately prosperous. Within its nearly 20,000-light-year expanse, there are three Tier 6 floating continents, two of which are life-type and one resource-type.
There are over ten Tier 5 floating continents and even more Tier 4 ones.
This alone highlights the richness of the Dark Han Star Domain.
Listening to the Original Ancestor's introduction to this star domain, Song Chi and Song Ze were amazed.
They knew that the Morning Star Kingdom spanned 30,000 light-years, with only six Tier 5 star sea floating continents and no Tier 6 ones. The difference was clear at a glance.
"This star domain has several Sixth Rank forces, and while the Stark Clan is the strongest, the Yue Clan, which occupies another Tier 6 life-type floating continent, is also formidable, possessing an Ultimate Dreadnaught."
Just as Song Chi and Song Ze were engrossed in the information, a violent roar echoed from the front.
Through the red sky-scanning radar on the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship, they could see an intense battle unfolding in the not-too-distant distance.
Astonishingly, among the combatants were Fifth Rank units, including a battleship.
The Original Ancestor immediately ordered the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship, which had been cruising at full speed, to come to a halt. Both of the ship's transit components were in cooldown, so it had been cruising at the speed of light.
"Aren't Fifth Rank Flame Warships prohibited from engaging in internal conflicts? Is someone openly defying the orders?"
Song Ze was the first to voice his confusion.
The Original Ancestor didn't need to respond to this question.
Song Chi pointed at the radar image and said, "Look at the energy fluctuations within that Fifth Rank unit on the stellar map. They are unusually intense, which is not characteristic of a Fifth Rank battleship. The only explanation is that it's not a battleship but an extremely powerful Fifth Rank Celestial Beast."
Song Shi Yuan nodded in agreement with Song Chi's assessment.
A special component on the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship was activated, and the next second, a holographic screen appeared above the control platform.
The screen displayed a somewhat blurry image of the battlefield at the edge of their vision.
In the image, four warships were engaged in combat with a massive black beast of astonishing size.
As Song Chi had guessed, the black beast was covered in thick scales, had four hooves, and was surrounded by a large number of cyan hurricanes. It was indeed the Wind Behemoth, a Celestial Beast that followed the path of the Wind Law.
On the other side were four Flame Warships, including a battleship and three Deer Hunt Ships. The faintly visible Law Eagle phantoms around the warships indicated that they most likely belonged to the Eagle Family of the Dark Han Star Domain.
"Old Ancestor, should we go around or engage?"
The Eagle Family, also known as the Bell Family, had an Ultimate Dreadnaught within their ranks. Their family's heritage, like that of the Morning Star Kingdom's Eagle Family, originated from the Hurricane Eagle, a Celestial Beast.
The origin of this Wind Behemoth was unknown, but it was clear that the Bell Family was determined to capture it. Wind attribute Celestial Beasts were rare, and the Wind Behemoth's core could increase the chances of a Wind attribute Flame Warship advancing to a battleship. The Bell Family wouldn't let this opportunity pass.
Approaching them might provoke hostility.
"Let's wait. This star domain is within the Mist Star Zone. If we detour, we'll have to travel an extra 3,000 light-years for no reason!"
The Old Ancestor spoke, and Song Chi and Song Ze naturally had no objections.
All three of them kept their eyes on the image projected on the screen.
The Wind Behemoth seemed to activate some kind of ability, causing the Wind Law surrounding it to rapidly intensify. In the blink of an eye, the abundant Wind Law condensed into nine storms, each with a diameter exceeding 10,000 meters.
The hurricanes roared, and the nine storms pushed forward, engulfing countless star fragments in the starry sky, which rushed towards the Bell Family's four warships.
The four warships didn't sit idly by. The battleship immediately activated a domain-class component, but it was a wind attribute component, which had little effect on the nine celestial hurricanes.
As the celestial hurricanes drew closer, the battleship was relatively unaffected, but the energy shields of the other three Deer Hunt Ships were rapidly eroding.
In less than ten seconds, the energy shields of the three Deer Hunt Ships overloaded one after another, and the countless fragments carried by the celestial hurricanes continued to damage their hulls.
Apparently receiving orders from the battleship, the three Deer Hunt Ships' engines simultaneously went into overdrive, desperately attempting to retreat.
At this moment, the Wind Behemoth seemed to activate a new ability, causing the nine celestial hurricanes to merge three by three, eventually forming three even more terrifying storms.
Under the increasingly powerful suction force, the last two Deer Hunt Ships, which had been slower to react, lost their chance to escape. Despite the engines and propulsion components of the warships operating at full capacity, they were unable to break free from the gravitational pull of the celestial hurricanes.
Furthermore, the two warships were being gradually drawn towards the eye of the celestial hurricanes, where countless fragments continued to cut into their hulls.
The battleship couldn't just stand by and watch.
Two special chains shot out from its body, precisely binding the two Deer Hunt Ships that had already sustained over 50% damage. The battleship also activated its engines at full power.
With the powerful thrust provided by the battleship's Sixth Rank red engine, the two Deer Hunt Ships were slowly being pulled away from the celestial hurricanes.
At the same time, the battleship's super main cannon opened fire on the distant Wind Behemoth, but the beast's sturdy scales rendered the attacks ineffective in the short term.
"Roar!"
This attack only served to further enrage the Wind Behemoth, which let out a deafening roar, causing three celestial hurricanes, each with a diameter of tens of thousands of meters, to show signs of merging once more.
When the three hurricanes fully converged into one, its diameter approached a hundred thousand meters, and its power rivaled that of a Sixth Rank.
By this time, even the Bell family's battleship was unable to continue moving away with the two Deer Hunt ships, and instead, it began to retreat again.
This scene caused the Bell family's Battleship Captain to feel a sense of panic.
He once again summoned the Law Eagle, and under its blessing, the three ships stopped retreating, but they still struggled to escape the gravitational pull of the nearly hundred-thousand-meter-wide hurricane.
Just then, a special communication wave emanated from the Bell family's battleship.
[Receiving unknown communication request. Accept?]
A strange light flashed in Song Shiyuan's eyes.
What surprised him was not that the other party knew about the existence of the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship, but rather his curiosity about this special communication method.
At this moment, the distance between the two ships exceeded a million kilometers, far beyond the range of the battleship's magnetic force field. The other party must have used a special component to communicate over such a distance.
After a moment of thought, Song Shiyuan accepted the communication.
"Friend, please help us out of this situation. The Bell family will be forever grateful. If you can assist in killing this Wind Behemoth, our family is willing to offer a red artifact as a token of our appreciation!"
Song Shiyuan did not respond to the urgent voice that entered his ears, but instead silently observed the middle-aged man on the other end of the communication.
Although he didn't speak, the Bell family's Battleship Captain immediately understood Song Shiyuan's intentions.
"Two orange components, and I can directly drop them near your ship right now."
"Not enough!"
Song Shiyuan was stingy with his words.
As far as he knew, the Bell family was a staunch supporter of the Yue family. Once they found out that his family was cooperating with the Stark family, they would undoubtedly turn against him. He had to secure the benefits first.
"Three!"
The other party's voice sounded again.
"Two Deer Hunt ships for three orange components? One red artifact, non-negotiable!"
Hearing Song Shiyuan's audacious demand, the Bell family's Battleship Captain's face turned gloomy.
At this moment, Song Shiyuan added another sentence:
"Your fellow clansman won't last much longer. Are you willing to accept or not?"
...
In the main control room of the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship, Song Chi and Song Ze glanced at each other as they witnessed a red component appearing to the side after a subtle spatial fluctuation.
In their impression, the original ancestor, who always stood by his word, was now taking advantage of others, and in a way that would satisfy his appetite.
With just a few words, he had obtained a red component.
As the pulling beam drew the red component into the warship, the two of them quickly saw its attributes.
Hyperpower Controller lv0
Quality: Red
Attribute: Hyperpower Disorder
Attribute 2: Hyperpower Amplification
Attribute 3: Hyperpower Burst
...
Song Chi's eyes lit up. This was indeed an extremely high-quality special component.
He had initially thought it would be a main cannon or energy shield, the most common red components, but it turned out to be a special component, and it seemed quite exceptional.
This Hyperpower Controller component had three effects. First, "Hyperpower Disorder" caused the target's hyper-energy and power supply devices to fall into disorder, thereby affecting the target's momentary combat strength.
"Hyperpower Amplification" was simple, increasing the hyper-strength of one's units.
The final "Hyperpower Burst" was similar to the "Enslavement Seal: Fury" attribute of the Enslavement Medal component. It also sacrificed the life of one's units to temporarily boost the hyper-system's strength by a major rank, using it to counter the enemy.
It would be a lie to say they weren't envious of this component, but it was the ancestor's reward, and it had nothing to do with these two younger generations.
After confirming the component's attributes, the ancestor no longer hesitated. The main cannon, super main cannon, and external launcher on the warship all began charging, each with additional attack attributes.
Once the charging was complete, the fire components, all of at least red quality, fired simultaneously, releasing multiple beams of light.
A million kilometers away, the Wind Behemoth was preparing to launch another attack when it was suddenly hit by multiple terrifying attacks from behind.
Instinctively, it activated the Wind Law within its body, and with its blessing, its figure quickly moved sideways, allowing it to dodge several attacks. However, two beams still landed on its body, one of which had a real armor-piercing attribute, inflicting significant damage on the Wind Behemoth.
It was at this moment that the giant celestial hurricane it controlled also trembled. Taking this opportunity, the Bell family's battleship strained its engines, managing to drag the two Deer Hunt ships out of the storm's gravitational pull.
However, when he tried to contact the unknown battleship again, he found that the communication had already been cut off.
Inside the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship, Song Ze hesitated.
Without turning back, Song Shiyuan spoke softly,
"Wondering why they left directly?"
"It's simple. The Bell family's ancestral land isn't far from here, and the reinforcements are likely already on their way. Staying any longer would only lead to more trouble. The previous attack was enough to ensure their escape, so leaving immediately was the best choice!"
Hearing this, Song Ze nodded slightly. Song Chi's doubt wasn't about this matter. If he were in their shoes, he would have made the same choice.
"Ancestor, did you just use the cooldown reduction component?"
The two transit devices on the Unmoving Bodhimanda Ship had been used not long ago and should still be in the process of buffering. This could only mean one thing.
Song Shiyuan nodded lightly and said,
"Do you two want this Hyperpower Controller component?"
PS: Three days at the end of the month, please support with votes. Thank you all.
