Chapter 607: The Aklemont Pillar Dynasty
Chapter 607: The Aklemont Pillar Dynasty
An unexpected anomaly suddenly erupted, causing multiple battlefields around the Fifth Black Snake Capital to explode.
Battleship Domain
Law Seal
Spatial Teleportation
Intangible Exchange
Electromagnetic Surge
...
In an instant, various hidden trump cards and secret techniques of the Flame Fleet Admirals were activated, and the initially beleaguered battleships swiftly resolved their battles or withdrew from the battlefield, as if in a coordinated effort, they all rushed towards the sky above the Black Snake Capital.
Among them, the Heaven Ruin Skydome Mirror Battleship was no exception.
Song Chi utilized the Escape Void Orb component, directly teleporting the Mirror Battleship to the gap in the energy shield of the Capital. However, he did not continue to control the Mirror Battleship to retrieve the black Mythical Artifact that had been thrown out. The moment the Mirror Battleship appeared, several other battleships simultaneously emerged from the void.
Clearly, the activation of the flash-dodge components in that fleeting moment was not limited to him alone.
Clang, clang, clang!
Sharp metallic friction sounds reverberated in the high sky, followed by the trembling of the Mirror Battleship.
[Warning, the battleship has collided with an external object. The hull armor has sustained 3% damage. Current hull armor integrity is at 97%!!!]
Several battleships that had teleported to the same location inevitably collided with each other.
The Mirror Battleship inherited the attributes of the Heaven Ruin Skydome, including an eighth-rank hull armor and an outer layer of Black Hole Evolution Layer with the same defensive attributes. This was why it only lost 3% of its hull armor integrity.
Two of the battleships among the group had nearly half of their hulls torn apart from the collision, and their armor had already sustained over 30% damage.
Despite this, the competition continued, and the Flamefire battleships that flew by were completely unaffected by the collision. The hulls of the various battleships continued to overflow with energies of different attributes, intensifying the collisions.
However, after the collisions, unlike the other battleships that trembled or were thrown off course, the Mirror Battleship remained steady in its original position without a hint of movement, thanks to the permanent control immunity granted by the golden Blood War Stele.
This subtle difference gave the Mirror Battleship the advantage of making the first move to capture the black Mythical Artifact.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
A beam of light shot out from the black hull, transforming into a traction beam that shot towards the black Mythical Artifact below.
Seeing that the traction beam had accurately captured the target, Song Chi quickly turned the battleship around and controlled it to fly towards the sky, intending to leave the area that was about to erupt into a chaotic battle.
However, reality often does not align with one's expectations.
Just as the Mirror Battleship successfully captured the black Mythical Artifact, the surrounding battleships immediately stopped their collisions and shifted their attention to it.
The reason they had not attacked earlier was that the other Admirals allowed the Mirror Battleship to take the black Mythical Artifact away from the energy shield gap of the Fifth Black Snake Capital. This ensured that the Mythical Artifact would not accidentally fall back into the Black Snake Capital during the subsequent struggle.
Now, the Mirror Battleship had fulfilled this mission.
The subsequent attacks soon followed.
Divine blood chains shot out from the void, quickly wrapping around the entire Mirror Battleship.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
The void rippled with energy waves, and multiple Law Seals in shades of gray, crimson, and pale blue gathered around.
The light in the sky above the Capital even dimmed as a battleship blocked the surrounding space.
These various methods were executed almost simultaneously, and their target was undoubtedly Song Chi's Mirror Battleship.
However, Song Chi did not show excessive panic. If it were before the start of the Flame Civilization War, he might have been at a loss, but now things were different.
As his thoughts raced, the ethereal clone in the battleship's control room glanced at the Starlight Spirit Talisman on the side.
The "Starlight Spirit Escape" ability of this component could ignore the effects of spatial blockade, allowing him to escape.
However, just as his gaze shifted, his peripheral vision caught a scene that made his body stiffen.
"This is... Ultra-Magnetic Interference?"
Just now, the traction beam fired by the Mirror Battleship had been disrupted by a wave of ultra-magnetic interference from the side, completely losing its grip on the black Mythical Artifact.
The Mirror Battleship itself had the permanent control immunity granted by the golden Blood War Stele, which could resist various interference and control effects. However, this immunity did not extend to the detached traction beam.
Having lost control of the black Mythical Artifact, Song Chi naturally abandoned the idea of activating the "Starlight Spirit Escape." He turned the battleship around and rejoined the competition with the other battleships.
As time passed, the collisions intensified. The two battleships that had suffered severe damage withdrew from the competition, but the number of Flamefire battleships in the field not only did not decrease but continued to increase.
Initially, only the first group that had teleported in had joined the competition. Later, the battleships that flew by entered the fray, and with the news spreading and the occasional arrival of a dreadnought from other battlefields, the number of battleships increased as expected.
As the battleships fought, a considerable number of fifth and sixth-rank Eight-Armed Serpent Demons emerged from the Fifth Black Snake Capital below, further complicating the situation.
At one point, a male voice rang out from the crimson dreadnought that had brought out the black Mythical Artifact.
"Everyone, let's first eliminate these Eight-Armed Serpent Demons, and then we can continue the fight for the Mythical Artifact!"
"Good!"
"Agreed!"
This proposal received the approval of most of the Admirals.
While the black Mythical Artifact was indeed tempting, they were still in the midst of the Flame Civilization War, and the primary enemy remained the Eight-Armed Serpent Demon clan.
Moreover, by eliminating the Eight-Armed Serpent Demons first, they could also reduce the number of competitors for the Mythical Artifact later, and these two goals did not conflict.
With the combined efforts of the dreadnoughts, the Eight-Armed Serpent Demons, who were already at a disadvantage, found it difficult to resist. In less than half an hour, the Eight-Armed Serpent Demons in the sky were all killed.
During this process, only the sixth-rank peak Eight-Armed Serpent Demon who had led the pursuit of the crimson dreadnought caused some damage to the Admirals. Empowered by two Serpent Demon divine abilities, he went berserk, targeting a dreadnought that was barely ten thousand meters long. In the end, he sank that dreadnought.
Of course, after that, he was also bombarded and killed by the combined firepower of the other dreadnoughts.
After this, more than ten dreadnoughts fought for nearly twenty minutes, but none of them managed to completely capture the black Mythical Artifact.
Perhaps sensing that this situation could not continue, one of the Admirals suddenly transformed his nearly 160,000-meter dreadnought from battleship form into a Mythical Armor form.
As the mechanical transformation reached its climax, a circle of crimson energy emerged from the giant's body, rapidly forming a deep crimson domain around it. The giant's hand held a longsword that radiated eternal darkness, adding to the intimidating aura.
Simultaneously, a low growl emanated from the crimson dreadnought that had brought the mythical artifact.
"Everyone, stop!"
The other dreadnoughts momentarily paused at the command, but only briefly.
The allure of a black supreme artifact was not to be underestimated. Such artifacts were the highest quality beneath mythical artifacts, and many ordinary star annihilators might not possess one. For the dreadnought captains, it was a once-in-a-millennium opportunity, enough to drive them to madness.
As the other dreadnoughts remained restless, the crimson dreadnought's voice boomed again.
"I said, stop! Can't you see the origin of this crimson domain?"
At the second rebuke, the dreadnought captains finally turned their attention to the crimson domain emanating from the giant.
Soon, surprise and doubt flashed across their eyes.
"This... is the Gods' Domain?"
...
Within the mirror battleship, the ethereal clone's eyes widened. The crimson domain was unfamiliar, but upon hearing "Gods' Domain," memories flooded Song Chi's mind.
【Gods' Domain】, a secret technique recorded in the 【Gods' Twilight Secret Technique Heritage Stele】, was exclusive to the Aklaymon family.
The Aklaymon family? They were the Imperial Federation of the Cathedral, one of the four imperial families of the Flame Civilization, and one of the four pillar imperial families of the Flame Civilization.
Finally, all the dreadnoughts ceased their actions, their gazes fixed on the giant.
If it were truly the 【Gods' Domain】, then this person would be from the Aklaymon family. Such an identity was not one that ordinary people could provoke.
Before long, an explanation came from the crimson dreadnought, likely from the captain or a follower, clarifying the situation.
"Ladies and gentlemen, my master is a scion of the Imperial Federation of the Cathedral. This trip is specifically for this supreme artifact. Please, make it convenient for us!"
As if in response to the explanation, the giant's crimson energy shifted, and multiple crimson silhouettes appeared in the domain.
These crimson figures loomed above the domain, exuding an indescribable pressure. Occasionally, ancient whispers emanated from their bodies, compressing the domain's inner space.
"【Pantheon Chart】, it's indeed an Aklaymon family member!"
After this incident, the other dreadnought captains ceased their actions.
Although they were affiliated with the Crimson Yu Dynasty, the other party's identity was not to be trifled with. If they dared to act against them, they could easily be sent to the cannon fodder squad during the subsequent war.
As the crimson dreadnought approached the black artifact, preparing to retrieve it, another spatial fluctuation occurred. Despite the Gods' Domain's restrictions, it couldn't completely imprison the entire space. Just before the crimson dreadnought, the mirror battleship used the 【Starlight Spirit Talisman】 to swiftly escape to the artifact's vicinity.
This time, Song Chi changed his approach. Instead of using the traction beam, he released multiple enslaved creatures through the open hatch, which he had prepared earlier. These creatures swiftly retrieved the artifact and brought it back to the battleship.
The entire process occurred in an instant, and by the time the others reacted, the artifact was already inside the mirror battleship.
Just as the battleship's hatch closed, the Aklaymon family member reacted through the giant, shooting a beam of light from its body. However, it was already too late.
The beam of light struck the mirror battleship just as its hatch sealed completely.
Song Chi's actions clearly provoked the other party.
"Friend, this artifact is indeed urgently needed by my master. Please return it to us!"
Initially, Song Chi didn't intend to respond, but their words amused him.
"What do you mean by return? Is the artifact yours? In a civilization war, the spoils go to the capable. Since I obtained it first, it naturally belongs to me!"
Hearing the sarcasm in Song Chi's tone, the crimson dreadnought spoke again, but this time with obvious impatience.
"The artifact is mine. I brought it out of the city. If it's not ours, then it's yours?"
"Hmph, without us, could you have left the city's energy shield?"
As their argument continued, the silent owner finally spoke up.
"Do you want to take it yourself, or should I help you?"
The owner's words drew everyone's attention, and they seemed to be anticipating Song Chi's next move.
Within the mirror battleship, the ethereal clone had disappeared, replaced by Song Chi himself, who had quietly teleported using a spatial anchor.
He had already examined the black supreme artifact's attributes and confirmed its exceptional quality, capable of being transformed into a ship component. There was no way he would return it.
"You can certainly try!"
As soon as the words left his mouth, a howling sound approached from the front.
Song Chi narrowed his eyes, using his powerful mental strength to control the mirror battleship and make an extremely subtle turn in a very short time, successfully avoiding the crescent-shaped sword beam that shot towards him.
【Angel's Sovereign Wings】, "Angel's Wing Escape," activated!
In the end, Song Chi could only rely on his dodging abilities.
