The Base's Sudden Upheaval

After finishing up the guild's affairs, Old Wang left the base and piloted Night Owl alone into the depths of the Starry Sky.

He needed to find the materials to evolve the Lord of the Elements. When he reached level 20, the system provided him with a list of the materials required for the evolution.

This evolution requires nearly a hundred kinds of materials, but Old Wang has most of them, only lacking one material called Starfall Meteoric Iron.

This is a very special material; Old Wang couldn't find it in either the system store or the Quartermaster.

Later, he obtained information about this thing from Dark Night. It turned out that this thing was a kind of artificial material produced by Starship of the Dreadnought-class and above during Starry Sky jumps.

This material has few uses, and its production is also limited, so it is only found on the Dreadnought-class flagships of various navies.

The Dreadnought-class flagship is a Tier 4 Starship, a truly terrifying existence capable of annihilating Stars. The Homeworld Base is a retired Dreadnought-class Starship.

However, before its Homeworld Base was decommissioned, it was one of the more powerful Dreadnought-class Starship.

Old Wang's destination this time is the Eastern Army Base, one of the four Alliance forces, the front line of the battle between humans and Insectoid.

He obtained the qualification to purchase Starfall Meteoric Iron from the Quartermaster and needed to go to the Eastern Army headquarters to buy it.

For some reason, you can't use teleportation to get to the various military headquarters, otherwise Old Wang wouldn't need to fly slowly in his Night Owl.

The Eastern Army's base is really far away. Old Wang used the teleportation function to arrive at the nearest Star Domain, and then he still needed to use the Night Owl, whose engine had been improved by several big shots, to fly on curved surfaces for nearly two days.

The reason he hadn't gone there for a while was because he was waiting for the engine to be modified. If it wasn't modified, it would take Old Wang four days to fly there.

That's what a pro is; with just a casual tweak, Night Owl's speed doubled.

Moreover, these bigwigs are really meticulous; they've attributed all these technological research achievements to the Future.

They gave the Future the right to dispose of every result derived from Future they obtained here.

Of course, some special Future Guild also have the foresight to hand over the management to the relevant departments, because they cannot and do not want to be corrupt about these things.

Even so, the Future Guild is already showing signs of taking off.

Under the Starry Sky, Old Wang looked at the magnificent surroundings and felt somewhat bored.

Even the most beautiful environment can become tiresome if you look at it for a whole day.

"Zero, how much longer do we have to fly before we see anyone?"

"We will arrive at a supply Planet in an hour. After resupplying, it will take another 19 hours to reach our destination, the Azure Dragon Legion headquarters!" Zero replied.

"It'll take this long! How can those people who drift in Universe for years endure this torment?" Wang Qianduo wailed.

"None of those people would actually travel through Planet space on their own, and they would prepare a lot of entertainment facilities in advance. Besides, they don't just drift aimlessly in the Starry Sky all the time," Zero explained to Old Wang.

Old Wang: "... Thank you!"

You're welcome, sir!

All the mistakes were made by Old Wang, which is why they were particularly painful for Old Wang to hear.

He really shouldn't have Planet trip alone without any preparation.

The quietness of the space environment is incomparable to that on Earth, and since Old Wang hadn't brought anything with him, it was essentially like being in solitary confinement.

Confined in such an absolutely quiet environment, if Zero hadn't been there to chat with him, he might have gone insane before even reaching his destination.

"That was reckless!"

Old Wang sighed as he flew into the supply Planet.

In reality, with only two days of flight time, Old Wang didn't have much to resupply, but he still headed towards the resupply Planet.

He doesn't need any supplies; he just needs to talk to a couple of people.

Is anyone there?

As they approached the supply point on the Supply Planet, Old Wang looked at the deserted supply point from afar and suddenly had a very bad premonition.

When he arrived at the supply point, seeing the mess and bloodstains everywhere, he knew that his worst fears had come true.

They've been attacked, and judging from the scene, the attackers were likely Insectoid.

Only an attack by Mutant Insect will leave virtually nothing at the scene except for traces, because everything is energy to them.

Soon, Old Wang stepped into the supply point, which was on the verge of collapse, wanting to confirm whether anyone had survived.

But just as he stepped into the camp, a Spine Serpent suddenly crawled out from the ground, startling Old Wang.

Before it could even attack, it was met with a furious barrage of attacks from the Lord of the Elements.

"That scared me to death! Holy crap!"

Old Wang roared as he used his skill to bury it completely.

When Old Wang stopped, the Spine Serpent had vanished without a trace, and the entire building had been razed to the ground.

However, the Insectoid are never solitary creatures. Old Wang's attack was like stirring up a hornet's nest, and countless Spine Serpent and Drone swarmed towards Old Wang like a tide.

Without saying a word, Old Wang used a Photon Ray to repel the things rushing towards him, then ran to the Night Owl and chose to escape.

We have no choice but to run! Like I said, the Insectoid never hunt alone.

How terrifying are Insectoid of Zerg? Just look at how humanity, with its powerful Mana Mech, is still overwhelmed.

However, just as Old Wang took off, beams of green light swept towards the Night Owl from beneath the surface of the Supply Planet.

The Night Owl's flying skills were already Perfect, but its performance was limited, and the rays were too dense, so the Night Owl was quickly swept down by a ray.

Old Wang immediately piloted the Lord of the Elements out of the cockpit. He watched as the Night Owl plunged into the dense Swarm below, and then muttered:

"Burst!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a white light emanated from the spot where the Night Owl had crashed, and a huge mushroom cloud shot into the sky. The energy of the explosion enveloped the entire land, and countless Mutant Insect were instantly reduced to ashes.

Old Wang clearly underestimated the explosive power of the Night Owl; he himself was severely injured by the violent blast.

"Damn! This is the minor change the expert was talking about?"

Old Wang, having recovered his health, stared incredulously at the mushroom cloud of energy that lingered in front of him.

He never expected that these big shots would add something so dangerous to the Night Owl. Judging from the explosion, it directly detonated the nuclear fusion reactor in the Night Owl's curved engine!

To put it simply, this thing is a hydrogen bomb. The system must have limited its explosive power, otherwise Old Wang would have been wiped out along with those Mutant Insect below.

However, the Night Owl's explosion eliminated the Insectoid in the stronghold, but now he faces another problem: how to leave.

The location of this stronghold is so remote that it would be impossible for the Lord of the Elements to fly back or to the Azure Dragon Legion's base at his speed; it would be a good year to get there.

The most reliable solution right now is to die and go back, but he's worried about losing his equipment.

"What is it?"

As Old Wang watched the mushroom cloud gradually dissipate and Thought how to leave the supply base Planet, he suddenly noticed the ground beneath his feet shaking.

Just as Old Wang was about to land and check, the Shanhe beneath his feet began to shake more and more violently, and the earth began to crack.

Then a terrifying creature that looked like a whale but was covered in a hideous chitinous shell flew out from beneath the earth.

"Kun... Ah, no!"

Leviathan!

Old Wang was utterly shocked as he stared at the monster in front of him, whose level he couldn't even discern.

Wang Qianduo couldn't see the entire Leviathan because it was simply too enormous.

Old Wang felt like an ant standing in front of an elephant; the overwhelming sense of oppression made it Hard for him to move.

After Leviathan appeared, it glanced at Old Wang with its enormous eyes, the pupils of which were larger than its Mecha, and then countless black dots from its body flew towards Old Wang.

As these things drew closer, Old Wang realized that these black dots were actually terrifying flying units with bat wings and huge tails— Zerg Mutalisk.

Even those who had never played Old Wang in their past lives had heard the saying, "How can you lose if Wyvern are charging in?"

This statement alone is enough to demonstrate the terror of these creatures; even before they got close, they shot out beams of green rays from their tails—the same rays that had just shot down the Night Owl.

Old Wang watched as rays of light shot towards him from the sky.

Danger!
