Xuanbing Galaxy.
Inside Alastor's starship.
Salong, with only his head remaining, his crimson electronic eyes flickering, said, "Anubi is dead."
"What? Anubi is dead? Impossible. Anubi might not be Gaia's match, but he couldn't possibly be killed by Gaia!"
Alastor said uncertainly.
Although Anubi wasn't very powerful among the Cosmic Star Gods, he definitely wasn't someone Gaia could kill easily.
"Anubi's stellar energy has dissipated."
Salong explained Anubi, the Evil Moon Warrior's, situation: "Have Carlos hurry to seize the Star of the Galaxy. I need a lot of energy to be resurrected."
"Understood, Lord Salong."
Alastor immediately agreed to Salong's command without refusal.
"Oh, and regarding Anubi's situation, you must pay close attention. If there's an opportunity, have Carlos kill Gaia and the others." Salong remembered Anubi's situation and solemnly reminded him.
Although he didn't know who exactly killed Anubi, this matter had to be taken seriously.
What if the perpetrator intended to gather more Cosmic Star Gods and kill his subordinates one by one?
"Understood, Lord Salong. I will personally oversee this matter."
Alastor said.
"Mm, I understand."
"Report, Lord Alastor, the Xuanbing you designated has been collected."
At this moment.
A mechanical soldier approached and respectfully said to Alastor.
"Understood, you may go."
Alastor waved him away. After the mechanical soldier left, he looked at Great Void Star God Salong, whose head was encased in Xuanbing, and asked, "Lord Salong, this Great Void Xuanbing?"
He really couldn't understand why Lord Salong wanted them to collect these useless ice blocks.
"Bring a piece of Great Void Xuanbing and put it into the energy core of a mechanical soldier."
In response.
Salong didn't directly tell Alastor the function of Great Void Xuanbing. Instead, he planned to let him witness its power firsthand.
Soon.
Alastor had people retrieve the Great Void Xuanbing and several soldiers.
Following Salong's instructions, they placed the Great Void Xuanbing into the energy core of a mechanical soldier.
The test results were truly astonishing.
"Lord Salong, this..."
Alastor looked at the mechanical soldier, whose combat power had suddenly tripled, in disbelief and astonishment.
Each mechanical soldier had the same combat power.
But after placing that small piece of Xuanbing into the mechanical soldier, the result was a world of difference.
"Hahahaha, this is the effect of Great Void Xuanbing."
Seeing Alastor's shock, Salong burst into laughter, his tone filled with joy, and explained, "Actually, this Xuanbing was influenced by the power when the Star of the Galaxy shattered. As a result, the power of the Star of the Galaxy was stored within the Great Void Xuanbing. And I, too, survived because of the power of the Star of the Galaxy."
"So, that's how it is."
Hearing Lord Salong's explanation, Alastor's crimson electronic eyes flickered. The Star of the Galaxy truly contained immense power. He said solemnly, "Lord Salong, please rest assured, I will definitely get the Star of the Galaxy for you and help you recover as soon as possible."
"Hahaha, good, good, Alastor, you are indeed my most loyal warrior. Alright, all of you, equip these mechanical soldiers with Great Void Xuanbing. I believe it won't be long before the universe trembles beneath our feet."
Salong heard Alastor's words and burst into laughter.
Alastor truly lived up to being his most loyal warrior.
He liked that very much.
"Yes, Lord Salong, your subordinate will immediately have all the mechanical soldiers equipped with Great Void Xuanbing."
Alastor was Salong's devoted follower and did not disobey any of Salong's orders.
"Go!"
Outside Mercury.
The Agile, like a streak of light, rapidly ascended into the sky, piercing the clouds, and traveled at superluminal speed towards Venus.
Not long after the Agile departed.
The space rippled.
A starship, even larger and more imposing than the Agile, slowly emerged from the spatial distortion.
"Lord Carlos, we can't contact Anubi."
Scorpion Warrior Seymour looked at Evil Star God Carlos in front of him and reported respectfully.
"Keep trying to contact him. Send Hidden Wolf to follow that departing starship."
Carlos's cold and somber voice echoed on the warship.
He sat on the icy throne, his crimson electronic eyes flickering incessantly.
Can't contact Anubi?
Then keep trying.
"Yes! Lord Carlos."
Scorpion Warrior Seymour obeyed Evil Star God Carlos's words unconditionally, just as Alastor obeyed Salong.
Seymour went to continue contacting Anubi.
Furthermore, as Carlos had instructed, he dispatched a Hidden Wolf to track the spaceship.
Just then.
Scorpion Warrior Seymour, who had returned, reappeared before Evil Star God Carlos.
"Do you need something else?"
Evil Star God Carlos looked at the guy in confusion. Didn't I tell you to keep trying to contact Anubi?
Could it be...
You've already contacted Anubi?
"Lord Carlos, we received intelligence from the Hidden Wolf that was with Anubi just before it died. It seems Anubi had a plan with it. In the plan, Anubi was responsible for luring Gaia away while the Hidden Wolf would steal the Star of the Galaxy. However, Anubi hasn't sent any news since then, and Mercury God Tethys agreed to leave with Gaia and the others."
"And Tethys attacked the Hidden Wolf, which led to the Hidden Wolf being killed by that guy Gaia."
Scorpion Warrior Seymour relayed the encrypted message from the Hidden Wolf that had followed Anubi, looking at Carlos tentatively.
"Mercury God Tethys? Interesting. I didn't expect the one on Mercury to be this fellow." Evil Star God Carlos tapped his fingers on the armrest, his crimson electronic eyes flickering, lost in thought.
"Dispatch the Crab Squad to conduct a wide-ranging search of the area where Anubi last contacted us. We want him alive, or if he's dead, we want his body."
Finally, Evil Star God Carlos made this decision.
First, find Anubi.
If he's dead, then find his body.
He was actually quite curious. If Anubi was dead, how exactly was he killed?
"Lord Carlos, what about Gaia and the others? If they find another Cosmic Star God, we'll be no match for them."
Scorpion Warrior Seymour said worriedly.
After all.
The strength of the righteous Star Gods was considerable.
Even though their current star energy was much weaker than before, they were still Cosmic Star Gods, not comparable to ordinary mechanical soldiers.
"How many mechanical soldiers do we have left?"
Evil Star God Carlos looked at Scorpion Warrior Seymour uncertainly.
"Lord Carlos, we currently have two squads of mechanical soldiers, about 320 in total. Do we need reinforcements from Taixu Star?"
Scorpion Warrior Seymour asked uncertainly, looking at Evil Star God Carlos.
"Three hundred people?"
Upon hearing this, Carlos tapped the armrest and fell silent, lost in thought.
Although he was insidious and cunning, he was also very proud.
Didn't you see that he didn't ask for help from Taixu Star even when he failed in the plot?
This shows Evil Star God Carlos's pride and persistence.
"Report! Lord Alastor has sent word. He has found Lord Salong and requests that Lord Carlos obtain the Star of the Galaxy as soon as possible to present to Lord Salong. If he cannot complete this, Lord Alastor will dispatch Black Star God to take action."
At this moment, a mechanical soldier approached, stopping in front of Evil Star God Carlos and Scorpion Warrior Seymour, and reported the situation.
"What? You found Lord Salong?"
Evil Star God Carlos's crimson electronic eyes flickered as he heard the robot soldier's words. He abruptly stood up from his throne and looked at the robot soldier excitedly. "When did you get this news?"
Salong has finally been found.
Their leader has finally found him after one hundred and forty billion years.
"Reporting to Lord Carlos, the news came three hours ago. However, we were traversing through a wormhole at the time and couldn't receive the message from Lord Alastor."
The robot soldier explained the situation to Evil Star God Carlos truthfully.
"Good, good, good. Salong has finally been found. We are no longer aimless wanderers." Evil Star God Carlos's voice was filled with excitement. He then sat back down on his throne and said, "Seymour."
"Yes, Lord Carlos!"
Upon hearing Evil Star God Carlos's call, Scorpion Warrior Seymour responded immediately, awaiting his command.
"Now, contact the Black Star God of Tai Xu Star and have him send me ten squads of robot soldiers as reinforcements. This time, we must capture Gaia and the others in one fell swoop."
Evil Star God Carlos said excitedly, "The Star of the Galaxy will be my gift to Lord Salong."
At this moment.
Evil Star God Carlos no longer cared about saving face.
Presenting the Star of the Galaxy to Lord Salong was the most crucial thing.
"Yes, Lord Carlos, but what about Anubi?"
Scorpion Warrior Seymour naturally had no objections. Thinking of Anubi, he cautiously asked.
"Didn't I already say it? I want to see him alive or dead."
Evil Star God Carlos turned his head unhappily and looked at his loyal warrior. "Anubi is also my subordinate. Although he's a bit useless, he was the one who discovered the Star of the Galaxy reappearing in the universe. Now that he's missing, we naturally have to find him. Besides, Gaia has Hidden Wolf. If they discover where Gaia and the others are going, Hidden Wolf will send word immediately."
"Yes, Lord Carlos."
Hearing this, Scorpion Warrior Seymour was moved by Evil Star God Carlos's words.
To consider his subordinate at such a critical moment was worthy of his loyalty.
"Mm, you may go and handle it!"
Evil Star God Carlos nodded with satisfaction. His objective had been achieved.
This way, he could win people's hearts and make his subordinates work for him even more devotedly.
"You, go back and send a message to the Demon Star God, telling him that I will definitely obtain the Star of the Galaxy as soon as possible and present it to Lord Salong."
