Boom! Boom boom!
The starry sky trembled as terrifying energy waves and overclocking waves spread rampantly.
Wreckage of warships and fragments of planets were everywhere, blinding light waves and beams crisscrossed the area.
"Assault ships, cruisers without personnel, block the enemy targets!"
"Space is sealed! Neither subspace nor deep space can be broken through!"
"Fourth array! Star Destroyers provide flank cover, we can't let this thing jump out of Charka Star Lake!"
Star Net, military local area channel.
Five Captain Commanders looked grim, gazing at the colossal monster on the virtual screen.
It resembled a scorpion, but possessed two pairs of mantis-like scythe arms, and its three-segmented tail ended not in a stinger, but in something akin to sharp claws!
Its overall form was slender and elongated, with six pairs of black compound eyes tightly locked onto the surrounding thousands of starships.
Dense and intricate light-gold patterns permeated its dark-gold carapace.
The most terrifying aspect was its size!
Thousands of kilometers! It was thousands of kilometers long!
Even the strongest mothership in the T6 Fleet was barely fifty kilometers, appearing incredibly small before this creature that seemed to have stepped out of myth.
While starships aren't solely judged by size, for star-beast-like lifeforms, size generally signifies combat power!
Dozens of Star Destroyers suddenly lit up their main cannons with immense flashes.
The surrounding cosmic energy vibrated, and over a hundred light spears instantly crossed tens of light-seconds, striking the colossal creature.
The brilliant energy wave nearly encompassed a million kilometers around.
The Star Destroyers of the Alliance Army's veteran T6 Fleet didn't just annihilate small planets with diameters of tens of thousands of kilometers.
They could easily shatter even colossal planets hundreds of thousands of kilometers in diameter, and even seven or eight ordinary planets in a row were not a problem.
To put it bluntly, the main cannons of the T6 Military Battleships were also Star Destroyers!
It wasn't difficult to shatter small planets with diameters of a thousand kilometers.
Even so, the concentrated fire of over a hundred Star Destroyer main cannons and nearly a thousand Battleship main cannons still couldn't inflict significant damage on the creature.
As the energy wave dissipated, the void force field around the creature merely dimmed, showing no signs of shattering.
In fact, the void force field was recovering at a visible rate.
"Saint You Great Armor! Saint You Great Armor! Damn it!" the Commander cursed.
These high-level void predators were rare even in the void.
And now, it had appeared in a small rift within human territory. He couldn't believe this wasn't related to the Alliance's enemies.
Hum~
The faces of the five Commanders changed. The three tails of the Saint You Great Armor simultaneously gathered dark-gold void creature energy.
At the same time, hundreds of light clusters materialized out of thin air around its body!
In the next moment, three streams of light and hundreds of beams of light simultaneously blasted towards the surrounding starships!
Instantly, thousands of starships agilely moved sideways in place, with some even instantly accelerating to light speed.
A considerable portion of the attacks was dodged, but many still hit their targets squarely.
The shields of dozens of warships shattered immediately, their hulls torn apart in an instant, sending hundreds of meters, even kilometers, of alloy fragments flying.
The formidable survivability brought by datafication proved utterly useless.
Most starships didn't require crew members. Although many warships were destroyed, there were no casualties.
One of the Commanders' expressions grew even more serious: "Was the reinforcement request sent?"
"It has been sent. Fleets from forty-five surrounding nations are gathering, and sixteen T6 Fleets are also en route."
"Has any T5 Fleet accepted the mission? This is a juvenile Saint You Great Armor!"
Saint You Great Armor, an adult comparable to a Level 8 Star Beast. Even a juvenile would be Level 7.
Coupled with its void creature characteristics, it was even more difficult to deal with. While a sufficient number of T6 Fleets could suppress it, the losses would definitely be substantial.
"No, but the closest forward base to the frontier has dispatched a Gold-ranked T6 Fleet!"
Gold-ranked?
Thousands of starships, all Battleships, plus over a hundred Star Destroyers and powerful special ships?
That would be enough.
Regardless of whether they were Alliance military commanders or Star Net commanders, anyone Gold-ranked was more than capable of dealing with a Level 7 Star Beast.
"Those monsters, with their talent bonuses and extra buffs, can indeed handle this Saint You Great Armor."
"Hold on for ten more minutes, and the closest T6 Fleets will arrive."
"Yes!"
Three warships appeared silently, three light-years away from the engagement zone between the Saint You Great Armor and five T6 veteran fleets.
[Star Net Alert: Void rift detected in the inner region of Charka Star Lake (millions of energy levels), a young Saint You Great Armor has also appeared. Requesting support!]
[Alliance Military Alert: Young Saint You Great Armor, requesting assistance from surrounding nations for defense.]
Qingyang and Guxing exchanged a glance.
After a moment's hesitation, Guxing said helplessly, "I don't recommend you go and gain this experience. A young Saint You Great Armor's attack and damage can easily reach over a hundred thousand energy levels with a single strike. Even a T7 fleet would be sending themselves to their deaths."
Qingyang smiled, "I know, of course. I'm just here to find something."
"The rift is right here, and the Saint You Great Armor has already occupied the entire passage of this rift. At most, there will be some Void Creatures with a total energy level of less than ten thousand. There are quite a few treasures inside the void."
Guxing breathed a sigh of relief and said no more.
Qingyang stared at the coordinates visible only to him on the star map, and the three warships accelerated towards the distance.
That was precisely the direction of the void rift.
According to the coordinates, the Void Crystal should be on a planet near the void rift.
As they gradually approached, Qingyang realized that the void rift was much larger than he had imagined.
It was at least tens of thousands of kilometers in diameter!
Black and purple void energy continuously eroded the surrounding space, and streams of various colored energies occasionally gushed out of the rift.
These were various high-level cosmic energies that had been swallowed by the void, unable to be assimilated or eroded.
Sunspot-like void streams swayed irregularly, and with a casual flick, an energy stream shot out.
A small asteroid hundreds of kilometers wide was instantly shattered!
His expression stiffened slightly, and the three warships immediately stopped advancing. Afterward, the long-range cruiser sailed alone towards that planet.
There were no major dangers. That Saint You Great Armor was clearly powerful in terms of energy levels.
The long-range cruiser only encountered a few Void Beasts with energy levels in the hundreds. After killing them, it successfully reached the coordinate area.
The target was located in a crater on this dead, silent planet.
At first glance, Qingyang saw the dark purple crystal, about five meters in size, and... an egg?
Without hesitation, he used the tractor beam to collect both items into the warehouse.
"Wait, could this be the egg of a Saint You Great Armor?" Qingyang suddenly thought of something and was startled.
He looked at the exploration matrix and found that the light spot representing the Saint You Great Armor did not react, and he relaxed.
If the Saint You Great Armor were to chase him desperately, he would definitely not be able to escape.
Confirming that nothing was left behind, the three warships once again silently left the rift area.
It wasn't that he didn't want to help; things like void rifts were not something he could get involved in yet.
At least a T7 fleet would be needed to barely participate.
However, his home was near Charka Star Lake. Was everything going to be alright?
Guxing seemed to see what Qingyang was thinking and smiled, "The Alliance's power is beyond your imagination. Let alone a young one, even if a Saint You Great Armor in its prime appeared, any major nation could handle it alone. The situation here has already spread. At the latest, in three days, that Great Armor will become material for some laboratory."
As someone from a strong nation, Guxing had the most say in this.
Qingyang finally felt at ease and returned to the lounge.
"Star of Truth, submit the bounty mission!"
