“Last warning! Scarlet Snow Sect, do you intend on starting a war?!” The female voice sounded again.
There was faint, metallic l.u.s.ter on the few planets around. Clearly, the defense system on those planets had been fully initiated.
It could be said that the entire Scarlet Snow’s fleet was completely within the firepower net several times that of its own. The situation was extremely critical. This was the consequence of rashly invading the headquarters of another sect. Energy Machinists had no shortage of money. Completely transforming a planet into a combative one was also a simple matter. If necessary, they would even detonate the entire planet as a countermeasure against the enemy.
At this moment, all the battles.h.i.+ps in the Scarlet Snow’s fleet were all tensed up. After all, most of the soldiers were unwilling to fight. It was only the higher-ups who were controlled by Garen. Although they had to obey because of their higher-ups’ orders, facing such a disparity in the battles, nothing much could be said against them, even if they were quickly defeated and had to retreat.
On the battle fortress which resembled a vertical water droplet.
“Sect Master, let us, your subordinates, go and wipe out the other party’s higher-ups!” An Ice Demon General named Besset loudly requested for a fight. Having become a Non-falling Level, the Ice Demonic Armor on him gave him an endless energy and confidence, which blinded him a little.
The rest were still waiting for Garen’s decision. At the moment, once the war was started, Scarlet Snow’s fleet would definitely suffer an unimaginable net of firepower attack. They could hold out for ten minutes at most, though they would still be heavily injured and defeated.
Only Osho, as well as the Ice-Crack and Ice-Grand brothers had absolute confidence in Garen. They did not make any move at all and remained calm.
“I think we should focus on Sect Master’s plan. We are here not for war. The fleet is only used for deterrence,” Osho Ice-Ocean said plainly.
“Sect Master, for those who dare to aim their muzzle at us, if we do not counterattack severely, it may affect the perception of the outside world toward our Scarlet Snow Sect,” Besset still advocated a war.
“Sect Master has his own way of doing things. Does he need you to remind him?” Ice-Crack responded irritatingly. As a few of the most powerful Ice Demon General, he had his prestige. These Ice Demon Generals had also compared moves with one another privately and naturally, there was a conclusion of superiority. The brothers and Ice-Ocean Osho together formed the strongest trio. And so, the rest of the people were naturally convinced by the trio. However, although Besset’s voice had stopped, he clearly showed an impatient face.
Garen put up his hand. His face was hidden in the golden metal helmet, so his expression could not be seen clearly.
“We are here to spread peace and sincerity. We do not fire against our compatriots in a war. They are also Energy Machinists and one of us,” After Garen’s voice pa.s.sed through the gold helmet, it became deep and slow and there was a sense of echo.
“Sect Master is so brilliant!” The monarchs and queens by the side quickly chimed in; tumultuous voices rose and faltered. They were the ones who did not want to initiate a war. Once a war was started, no matter which side won, it would cause losses to their battles.h.i.+ps. This was not what they wanted to see.
“I will personally go and negotiate. All of you just wait here,” Garen’s voice came out from under the helmet.
Regarding his decision, before the people reacted, Garen had darted into the sky and flickered in the outer s.p.a.ce, disappearing immediately in the air nearby.
The people beneath were suddenly startled.
“What is this nonsense!?” A monarch finally could not help but shout loudly. “How can we let the Sect Master enter into danger alone!”
“This is Sect Master’s decision. You only need to obey unconditionally!” An Ice Demon General spoke coldly. They, who were modified by the Distorted Seed, trusted Garen deeply. Each of his words had an absolute effect.
Like him, all the Ice Demon Generals were motionless. Because of the Distorted Seed, they could already sense the mystery and power of Garen. Among them, there were also some who had sinister motives. The Distorted Seed could only keep others from harming Garen, it that did not mean that those who were parasitized would absolutely protect him. They would also not necessarily obey his orders.
Each of them was having their own kind of thoughts while they quietly waited for Garen’s return.
********************
After jumping a few times in the outer s.p.a.ce, Garen quickly pa.s.sed through the large area of firepower protection net. No one intercepted him. Perhaps, they thought that even if he had come in alone with any malicious intent, it would just be like walking into the lion’s den. There was no need to be bothered at all, so they allowed his entry regardless.
Garen jumped a few times and put away the jump ball. He hovered in front of Planet Dual-Key, looking at the entire pale yellow planet.
“Planet Dual-Key Guardian, could you come out and meet with me?”
His voice was low and distant. It seemed to have countless echoes.
His voice faltered. After waiting for a minute or so, a giant, pitch-black python gradually appeared not far away in front of Garen.
The body of the python was a few thousand meters long, and it spiraled into a serpentine array. On top of the giant snake’s head were two huge eyes like red lanterns. They were scanning and staring at Garen.
The size of a human differed vastly than that of a snake. Garen quietly hovered in front the python, like an adult and an ant, which could easily be crushed. But, there was no panic in him at all.
“My name is Andes, the snake of Black Waters, Guardian of Dual-Key. The mighty one of the Scarlet Snow Sect, speak out your intention,” The giant python produced a sharp, female-like voice. The sound wave itself was almost equivalent to a kind of sound wave attack. If it were the general Inherited Levels, it was estimated that their eardrums would be directly punctured and bled.
Garen looked carefully at this giant snake. He did not answer immediately, and the helmet covered his facial expression at the moment.
After a few minutes, when the giant snake was a little impatient, Garen spoke up.
“I don’t know if Andes has felt that something is amiss, with all that has happened recently?”
The giant snake was silent for a while and its huge eyes blinked.
“Amiss?”
Garen’s deep laughter came from under the helmet.
“Do you know the Fear-Night Sect? The Life-Leaf Sect, The Nairar Sect, The Golden Light…” He kept mentioning the names of various sects one after another. These were the medium and small-sized sects that had recently been destroyed.
The look of the giant snake gradually darkened.
“What do you mean by this?”
Garen reached out his hand and made a grabbing motion. Suddenly, numerous white chills in the universe were released from the dark s.p.a.ce around, quickly converging into the palm of his right hand.
“This is the destruction caused of us, the Energy Machinists. It is also our chance for a new life. Nirvana and rebirth!”
The infinite chill instantly condensed into a terrific Level-Eight force field. However, the force field was still growing, quickly reaching the peak of Level Eight and actually entering into Level Nine.
Whoos.h.!.+
A vine-ice-crystal screen appeared behind Garen. The immense number of white vines grew wildly like roots, spreading around the surrounding s.p.a.ce in the universe as though they were climbing on panels of transparent gla.s.s.
In the blink of an eye, it surpa.s.sed the shape of the giant snake’s body and reached a length of tens of thousands of meters!
Whew…
The horrific cold wind rolled up a huge amount of chill. He spread them out in all directions, blowing on the giant snake and covering its body surface with a faint white frost.
Hiss…
It hurriedly drew back a few hundred meters before managing to drive away the h.o.a.rfrost on it.
Looking at Garen from afar, whose whole body extended out white ice-crystal roots, its lantern-like large eyes clearly revealed shock and disbelief.
“Come on,” Garen reached out his hands to the giant snake. “Join me. By uniting, our strength will become stronger!”
“Join you? I think my Dual-Key Sect should be stronger than your Scarlet Snow. Why won’t you join me?” The giant snake was immediately exasperated. “Bringing your army here and asking me to join you, I don’t think it’s a cooperation, but to have us submit to you!”
“If you want to understand it this way, you can,” Garen was equivocal. “Those who comply with me will prosper, while those who resist me will perish. All the things in the world are attributed to this principle.”
Countless ice-crystal vines swayed behind him like numerous white light tentacles. They were unusually dazzling and gorgeous.
“If you want me to submit, even if you are Level Nine, that can only happen after a fight!” Once the voice had just sounded, the giant snake abruptly hit out.
Endless winds gathered together. Contained within them was a vast amount of black sewage. No one knew from where the giant snake summoned it from. Human screams were faintly coming out from the wind continuously.
“Ah!”
The giant snake opened its huge mouth and issued a hoa.r.s.e cry like that of a man.
Countless black water and airstreams converged at its mouth, quickly fusing into a badge. The extremely sophisticated and delicate small black badge looked like a blurry s.h.i.+eld.
“Let me see if you are qualified to have me submit to you!”
The serpent spewed out the airstream.
The turbulent airstream along with the black water and badge was shot at Garen. A feeling of time and s.p.a.ce were frozen rose in the hearts of every spectator.
“Star Core Resonance! Explode!” The giant snake thundered.
The badge flew to the front of Garen in the blink of an eye, exploding at the roar of the giant snake.
Countless bright yellow, transparent energy tentacles spread out from the yellowish planet behind the giant snake, flowing into the giant snake’s body.
Boom!
The huge wreath of black clouds exploded, quickly covered Garen’s enormous white ice-crystal vines.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
It was not just once, but the explosion actually continued non-nonstop for four times in a row!
“Level Nine?” Garen’s voice came out of the dark cloud and remained calm as it was.
The giant snake’s pupil constricted. This was the strongest hidden power it could produce at the moment. To be able to produce a Level Nine power was extremely difficult. It was not Level Nine at all, and it could only temporarily activate such a power. If it were not for the other party being so arrogant, it would not have used this kind of strength to attack right away.
“Again!” Its gigantically long tail brought along a black light and a Level Eight Thousand Gravitational Force, las.h.i.+ng toward Garen’s small body. The huge tail and the tiny human was like a stick and dust. However, it was the giant snake which was the nervous party instead.
“Attack!” At this moment, another woman’s voice sounded.
Boom!
In a flash, the universe brightened up!
Innumerable giant beams of high-energetic particles crossed the outer s.p.a.ce from all directions, gathering on Garen with a dazzling array of red lights.
Huge particle beams with humming sounds and terrific disturbance, coupled with the giant snake’s lash and gravitational force, instantaneously condensed most of the particle beams and converged them at the small s.p.a.ce where Garen’s body was located.
In a flash, the whole universe became bright.
The surrounding planets released terrifying red beams of light, most of which were from Planet Dual-Key. Hundreds of horrific particle beams shot out from the surface of the planets. They were straight and swift, converging at one point and striking the s.p.a.ce Garen was at.
