Chapter 534: Projection Arrival
Chapter 534: Projection Arrival
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. By the time Song Liang had finished his actions, the initial panic within the Celestial Liang had completely dissipated, and his expression was unusually calm, as if the previous intense contraction of his pupils had been merely an illusion.
At this moment, he muttered to himself:
"Want to get close and deal with the Celestial Liang? I'm sorry, but the Celestial Liang has three purple components, including a piece of Obsidian Hull Armor!"
In front of him, the attacks of more than ten Tier 3 Azure Crab General soldier statues showed no signs of stopping, as they continuously pierced the blood and flesh of the Tier 3 Purple Butterfly Clan with their crab pincers.
If this was all, it would naturally not have much effect, as the combat power of puppet soldier statues was well-known, and they could only be referred to as 'pseudo' in the same tier.
However, the reality was that the pincers of the more than ten Azure Crab Generals seemed to be coated with something else, and every time they pierced the wounds of the Tier 3 Purple Butterfly Clan, a sizzling sound of corrosion could be heard.
Under these circumstances, the life force of the Tier 3 Purple Butterfly Clan was visibly declining.
"The Sky Poison Spider's spider venom is indeed terrifying. It's just a few drops on the soldier statues..."
Seeing that the battle situation had basically been determined, Song Liang's lips curled up instinctively.
The Sky Poison Spider was a foreign clan raised by the family, known for its astonishing venom. He had specifically obtained some of it earlier, never expecting it to come in handy here.
Hum—
Before Song Liang could rejoice for long, the spatial fluctuations from behind him suddenly made his heart jump.
"It's not Father..."
Just as he confirmed this, a terrifying beam of light had already pierced through from the other warship's bow position. In an instant, the energy shield on the outer layer of the Celestial Liang overloaded, and the dimmed beam of light immediately fell on the black hull.
[Warning: The warship has been attacked. Hull armor damaged by 42%, ship damaged by 20%!]
Song Liang's eyes flickered, knowing that only a few seconds had passed since he activated the 'Obsidian Guardian' trait of the Obsidian Hull Armor. If not for this, he would have dared to assert that the Celestial Liang would have sunk by now.
"It's a Morningstar Kingdom cruiser!"
Through the distinctive mark on the other ship, Song Liang immediately confirmed the other party's identity.
His eyes turned cold, filled with unconcealed anger, as he stared directly at the other party.
"Hand over that component, and I, the fleet commander, will spare your life!"
Song Liang's gaze remained cold, staring intently at the other party without responding.
"Stalling for time? Naive!"
As the mocking words fell, the bow position of the kilometer-long warship in front began to gather light once more, charging its main cannon.
Song Liang clenched his fists, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
He had intended to control the Celestial Liang to create distance and attack the Tier 3 Purple Butterfly Clan multiple times with his soldier statues. During this time, he had successfully obtained the special teleportation artifact, and the mission was perfectly completed.
But the reality was not that he didn't want to leave, but that he couldn't.
The Celestial Liang had already been controlled by the other party using special means and was temporarily unable to move.
"My father is a direct descendant of the Song Clan, do you really want to start a war between the Song and Morningstar Clans?"
Driven by his survival instinct, Song Liang questioned the other party through the newly established warship communication projection.
However, the response he received made his heart turn cold.
"War between the two clans? Heh, little one, you don't represent the Song Clan yet!"
"I, the fleet commander, give you three seconds. If you don't hand over that component, you'll be buried here!"
After a brief mental struggle, Song Liang's gaze returned to calm.
"I may not represent the Song Clan, but if I die here today, I can assure you that you will also die, and it won't be a pleasant death!"
This seemingly bland statement from Song Liang seemed to bring immense pressure to the Morningstar Clan's Tier 3 fleet commander, and for a moment, the other party's expression turned extremely ugly.
Both sides were well aware that this special teleportation artifact was only considered a top-grade purple component. The reason it had caused this situation was ultimately because Song Chi had been searching for it on a large scale.
If this component were to cause the death of a promising clan member of the family, Song Chi, who had a great reputation throughout the Morningstar Kingdom and even the entire Heavenly Pan River System, would definitely not let it go.
During this brief hesitation, a faint spatial fluctuation was heard in the starry sky once more.
In an instant, a second cruiser appeared.
"Dad!"
Seeing the familiar silhouette of the new cruiser, Song Liang's eyes lit up.
This newly appeared cruiser was the command ship of the 14th squadron of the Song Clan's first Leviathan Guard Fleet, led by Song Qian, a direct descendant of the Song Clan's second lineage.
"Leiser Morningstar, you're looking for trouble!"
Seeing that his son was unharmed, Song Qian breathed a sigh of relief, but when he looked at the Morningstar Clan's cruiser, the killing intent in his eyes could not be concealed.
Based on the damage to the Celestial Liang's hull, he could tell that Leiser Morningstar had intended to kill.
The moment Song Qian appeared, Leiser Morningstar's heart sank, knowing that there would be no resolution this time.
Instinctively, he wanted to activate the second teleportation artifact to leave, but behind him, several more spatial fluctuations were heard.
Three more Song Clan cruisers had arrived.
And crucially, one of the three cruisers that had arrived directly activated a forbidden magic field, dashing his hopes of teleporting away.
"They really want to kill me!"
Upon reaching this conclusion, Leiser Morningstar's face showed a hint of panic.
Previously, he had said that Song Liang was not qualified, and even if he killed Song Liang here today, the Song and Morningstar Clans would definitely not go to war.
But if the situation were reversed, wouldn't it be the same for him?
The Morning Star Clan has a heritage spanning over six thousand years, and among its members, there are thousands of Tier 3 Flame Relay Network captains. So, what's the big deal about killing just one of them?
Just as he was getting anxious, two Morning Star Clan cruiser commanders finally arrived.
Leiser Morningstar silently thanked these two clan members in his heart, and his attitude immediately changed, once again adopting an indifferent demeanor.
Although Song Chi had developed significantly over the past century, becoming the top family under the royal family, in his eyes, the Dragon Spine Song Clan, with only three thousand years of heritage, seemed more like a nouveau riche. Compared to the Morning Star Clan, which had already entered the ranks of the immortal clans, they were naturally several levels lower.
...
In the group chat of the four Song Clan cruisers, a clan member asked Song Jian:
"Officer, what should we do?"
The murderous intent in Song Jian's eyes didn't diminish in the slightest, and his voice was firm.
"Leiser Morningstar must die, and I'll bear all the consequences. Attack!"
As if sensing Song Jian's thoughts, Leiser Morningstar's expression darkened.
"Song Jian, do you really want to disrupt the balance between our two families that we've barely maintained?"
Song Jian didn't respond; he just controlled his ship and charged straight towards Leiser Morningstar's ship.
Behind them, the other three Song Clan cruisers split into two groups. Two turned to face the approaching Morning Star Clan cruisers, while one joined Song Jian's ship in charging towards Leiser Morningstar's ship.
Seeing this, Leiser Morningstar was filled with shock and anger. He was already weaker than Song Jian, and if another cruiser joined the fight, he knew he wouldn't last long.
"No, I can't let this continue, or Song Jian will sink my ship here!"
With this thought in mind, Leiser Morningstar shouted to the rear:
"Quickly, activate that Subbrain Automata!"
Upon receiving his command, one of the Morning Star Clan cruisers that was not within the range of the Forbidden Magic Domain activated a certain component.
Buzz!
The pitch-black starry sky above them trembled with intense spatial fluctuations, covering a vast area.
Soon, a shadow slowly materialized.
It was indeed a projection of a Zealot Ship, three thousand three hundred meters long.
"Be careful, it's a Morning Star Clan Zealot Ship projection!"
Song Jian's expression changed, and he immediately warned his fleet members.
However, before the Zealot Ship projection fully materialized, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
The warship, which had already replaced its bow with a purple ram, charged towards Leiser Morningstar at full speed. Judging from the situation, if the two ships collided, Leiser Morningstar's ship, unable to activate its hull armor defense, would at least suffer a huge hole.
If luck wasn't on their side, it was also possible for the warship to be completely disabled.
However, just as the two warships were less than 100,000 meters apart, the already fully materialized Zealot Ship projection suddenly released a powerful energy. This energy was also in the form of a domain, but compared to the Forbidden Magic Domain activated by the Song Clan cruisers, it seemed to carry an unstoppable force, easily crushing the Forbidden Magic Domain.
But that wasn't the end. Under this mysterious domain, even Song Jian's ship, which had been flying by, suddenly froze, inexplicably trapped in place.
This sudden change in the battlefield situation caused the situation to reverse in an instant.
It was only then that a respectful voice was heard from one of the three Morning Star Clan cruisers.
"Welcome, Elder Quine!"
...
There was no response, and the Zealot Ship captain named Quine Morningstar seemed to not want to make a big deal out of it. He spoke indifferently through the warship projection:
"That's enough, disperse..."
But before he could finish his sentence, Song Jian's voice, suppressing his infinite anger, suddenly interrupted.
"That's enough. This star domain is already considered my Song Clan's territory. Not only did they take action in my Song Clan's jurisdiction without permission, but they also tried to kill a Tier 2 member of my Song Clan. Elder Quine, are you telling me to let this go?"
As a Zealot Ship captain, being interrupted by a Tier 3 cruiser captain was an insult, even though Song Jian had a valid point. Quine Morningstar's expression turned gloomy.
"Are you questioning a Zealot Ship captain?"
A dark voice echoed from the Zealot Ship projection, accompanied by a terrifying domain pressure acting on Song Jian's ship.
Crack!
Under Quine Morningstar's control, the power of the domain, which had reached Tier 6, enveloped Song Jian's ship.
[Warning: The warship is under attack. Energy shield damaged by 46%, current shield value remaining at 54%.]
[Warning: The warship is under attack. Energy shield overloaded, hull armor damaged by 22%, ship damaged by 3%, please repair promptly.]
[Warning... Hull armor damaged by 80%, ship damaged by 59%, please repair as soon as possible.]
Under this terrifying domain power, within a second, the damage to Song Jian's ship increased significantly.
"Dad!"
On the side, Song Liang in the Celestial Liang widened his eyes, his voice even carrying a hint of tears.
"It's not just your Morning Star Clan that has Zealot Ship captains!"
Even though his ship was severely damaged, Song Jian's voice remained firm.
With a thought, he activated the projection component on his ship.
"Song Clan's disciple Jian, respectfully inviting the clan elder to descend!"
As his voice fell, intense spatial fluctuations also appeared above his ship, followed by a rapid gathering of a Zealot Ship projection, three thousand three hundred meters long.
After the Zealot Ship projection appeared, the oppressive force on Song Jian's ship instantly dissipated.
The next second, a faintly angry female voice echoed in the starry sky.
"Quine Morningstar, do you think my Song Clan has no one?"
In the Morning Star Clan's Zealot Ship projection, a reply soon came.
"Song Ting, you're not qualified to speak to me!"
