148 Starry Sky Golden Dragon
Countless flames exploded and cracked within the flagship, making it impossible for the hundred-kilometer-long escort ships to provide timely support. Thus, the side that suffered the boarding attack decisively issued an order: send out their strongest warriors to engage them in a fierce battle.
A blazing golden flame burst forth in the universe, yet a terrifying sonic boom echoed through the vacuum of space, as if even the Higgs Field felt the oppression emanating from the top predator of the food chain.
A colossal golden dragon, with magnificent sail-like wings and spewing scorching, star-like flames, instantly became the protagonist of the battlefield. When it spread its wings, it practically bathed the entire battlefield in a dazzling gold.
[Majestic Aura]
The wings that stretched from the sail to the tip of the tail trembled slightly, and the enormous dragon's eyes, as terrifying as molten lava balls, swept across the entire area. The imposing aura of righteousness spread rapidly like ripples on water, and countless ships instantly turned around, as if they had seen some extremely terrifying existence.
Unlike the righteous dragons in our minds that are proficient in magic, this extravagantly gorgeous interstellar golden dragon has an incredibly strong body, with muscles all over its body seemingly forged from stars.
It raised its claws and formed a series of hand seals, and a series of dragon language symbols and sacred scriptures appeared on its body, and a high-pitched and pure hymn echoed throughout the entire star field.
Then, the golden dragon slowly clenched its fist, and a violent power continued to accumulate, even destroying the space of the universe and spreading cracks.
[Hundred Refinements: Evil-Breaking Fist]
Jinlong's punches came out quickly. Because of its huge size, the movements seemed slow to Li Aoz, and it was full of a dull sense of oppression. His heartbeats accelerated and pounded. The instinct hidden in his biological genes made him run away as soon as possible.
Fu ————
How could there be a sound in a vacuum? Jinlong's punch brought with it a chilling force, instantly destroying the entire assault fleet, and even affecting two cruisers with planetary bunkers.
The magnificent hymns echoed like heavenly music, praising the warriors' bravery and the enemy's cowardice.
Amidst the praise of the song, the enormous planet was instantly shattered by its immense power.
The surging force is unstoppable, and the will to destroy is inviolable.
The storm generated by the force rapidly dispersed countless planetary fragments throughout the universe. Several ships that couldn't maneuver in time were instantly smashed into scrap metal. After a brief period of red-hot heat, the Power Furnace melted down, creating a spectacular display like fireworks in the dark universe.
Dragons are considered to be at the top of the food chain, and some form of dragon can be found on almost any planet, ranging from small creatures like lizards, birds, and kobolds to majestic Phoenix, astral dragons, and Void Dragon Race.
Golden dragons are among the top noble dragon races, second only to the Radiant Dragon, who are said to rule as emperors. Lower-ranking dragons are generally quantified by 'strips' or 'tails', flying dragons by 'units', and giant dragons are all referred to by the quantifier 'heads'.
A golden dragon.
Whether he is a pure-blooded dragon or a descendant of dragons with dragon blood, he is classified as a dragon in the classification of dragons.
Dragons, who possess the blood of golden dragons, are destined to become legendary creatures, superior to humans. But what truly makes them famous is their humility and friendliness.
Compared to other dragons, golden dragons are learned and refined, respect the law and abide by contracts. They are also talented and romantic, and are elegant masters of art. In addition, in order to support their hobbies, each golden dragon is a real tycoon.
For Li Aoz, having grasped the Golden Dragon and its unique fighting style, his identity becomes quite clear:
"The [Destruction] type [Monk] path, or the Golden Dragon bloodline, only Archer Duken Monser exists in the entire Abyss—there's no mistake, this is the Galaxy's Eye Campaign!"
Li Aoz mixed feelings.
The Crystal Tower is the most law-abiding Magic Civilization in the Abyss; the Night Butterfly Federation the most restless technological civilization in the Abyss; and both of these civilizations happen to be located outside the non- Narrative-level territory.
Throughout the entire Star Abyss, there was absolutely no Narrative-level intervention. It was a decisive battle that broke out entirely due to a conflict between two small civilizations. There was no intention to seek intervention or mediation from Narrative-level Civilization, and the war started without any mobilization. It even involved the use of the most advanced Cauchy-class (Ξ, the fourteenth Greek letter, with a level of approximately 280 or higher).
It is extremely rare for all these conditions to be met at the same time. In the case of the Abyss, there has probably only been one such war in millions of years.
—And so, Li Aoz met.
Perhaps if he had come twenty years later, or even ten years later, he wouldn't have encountered it.
Li Aoz gradually slowed down, already considering whether he should use the effect of the [Aura of Goodwill] to fool them.
Qiqiao Network's system has a problem: the descriptions of skills are vague, requiring players to guess based on their actual combat effects. Some skills sound impressive but are actually useless, while others have mediocre descriptions but simple and brutal effects that can defeat all fancy ones.
The description of the "Aura of Goodwill" is vague: when you make any "Charm" judgment, the other party will not attack you regardless of whether the result is unsuccessful.
The question is, what if there's no judgment? Does that mean the skill won't work?
Li Aoz felt that his "charm" was already very high; even among these two Interstellar Civilization, there were very few extraordinary individuals who could reach his level.
He shook his neck, slowed down, and prepared to make contact.
Now it's up to fate.
However, the Night Butterfly Federation does not seem to regard Li Aoz as a benevolent entity, or rather, they do not value Li Aoz at all.
The Golden Dragon Monk from the Crystal Tower Civilization displayed his might, and Li Aoz suddenly and silently charged into the battlefield.
Imagine this: in a battle of this magnitude, the enemy has just thwarted a decapitation strike, and now a sub-light-speed individual unit appears on the other side. What would the Night Butterfly Federation commander think? "Sir, the AI has detected an unknown target at the edge of the combat zone, traveling at sub-light speed, and its size is significantly smaller than a personal ship."
"Shoot them down directly." Night Butterfly's commander didn't hesitate. "We've notified all the surrounding civilizations of the war. Who else could be the individual powerhouse who would intrude into the war zone at this time?"
"But perhaps he is a noble person from a higher civilization?"
"No matter who it is, anyone who enters the combat zone without any identification signal will be treated as a spy or assassin."
"Yes, I understand."
The subordinates made timely corrections, and the AI immediately identified the slowing Li Aoz as an unknown target. Based on the discovery, it was mistaken for a strike team coming to decapitate him, and two Neutron Torpedo were launched instantly, trailing a dark blue light as they flew towards him.
"No judgment yet—withdraw!"
Without hesitation, Li Aoz accelerated and fled at full speed.
— Now we at least understand that the [Aura of Goodwill] is only effective when both parties are face-to-face and there is a skill check.
Escape is impossible. Without a flight path, running around aimlessly will only lead to a quicker death. The only option is to charge forward and get out of the battlefield as soon as possible.
This means that he has to traverse the entire starry sky and go straight through the center of the battlefield where the Golden Dragon Monk and the Night Butterfly Federation fleet are bombarding him.
