Although the Intelligent Brain's communication is quite covert, it is not dealing with ordinary people.
Li Xingkong overheard their conversation clearly, and after these Intelligent Brain reached their conclusions, Li Xingkong let out a cold laugh.
Even at this point, they're still thinking about killing to cover it up; these Snail People are truly no good.
My idea of talking to them was a bit too presumptuous.
These creatures are not from Earth Star People; they cannot be identified by common sense.
"Click!"
The Intelligent Brain's communication ended, and it resumed its actions. A flash of electricity appeared between the neurons, and the entire room where the Intelligent Brain was located was sealed off.
"Heretic, surrender, and I'll spare your life."
The neurons in the Intelligent Brain switched directions and aimed at Li Xingkong's location.
This thing seems to have some self-defense capabilities.
Seeing that communication was impossible, Li Xingkong gave up hope of getting anything out of them, clenched his fist, and slowly raised it to his chest.
"You asked for this."
The many neurons of the Intelligent Brain emitted a burst of electric light, and several electron beams shot out.
Li Xingkong didn't move. His clenched fist transformed into a claw, and he gently grabbed at the location of the Intelligent Brain.
Several electron beams were blocked when they struck Li Xingkong's shield, and Li Xingkong's grab lifted the massive Intelligent Brain out of the ground.
A flash of sparks appeared, and countless neurons connecting the Intelligent Brain to the ground were severed, causing blue liquid to seep out.
"You ungrateful wretch, get out of here."
Li Xingkong made a slight baseball-throwing motion and hurled the Intelligent Brain out.
The Intelligent Brain connected to the upper half of the house, which had been torn apart from the wall, and shot straight into the sky. It was as if the planet's gravity had ceased to exist, and the AI was flung directly into space.
Although the Intelligent Brain had high computing power, it couldn't survive in space. After struggling for a while, it shrank into a wrinkled mess due to liquid seepage.
Li Xingkong's commotion was quite significant.
Soon, the ground forces and air strikes on this planet locked onto Li Xingkong's location.
Several missiles, trailing flames, arrived in an instant, carpet-bombing the entire area.
"Snort."
This isn't Earth Star; Li Xingkong has no qualms about taking action here.
With a wave of his hand, a Sword Qi connecting heaven and earth rose from the ground, splitting the entire planet in two wherever it cut through the Sword Qi and atmosphere.
The Sword Qi energy was incredibly fast. Everything Sword Qi passed over—fighter jets, ground weapons, and even the Snail People's residential area—was sliced into tiny pieces like tofu.
The Sword Qi circled the planet's surface several times before dissipating.
The surface of this Snail People settlement planet resembled an apple that had been sliced several times with a peeler, with large areas of debris exposed in the vacuum.
With just this one move, the defenses of this third-class habitable planet completely collapsed, and the planet's population decreased by nearly one-tenth.
Just as Li Xingkong was about to strike again and wipe out all the armed forces on the surface, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if some great danger was about to befall him.
Li Xingkong didn't bother to make another move. With a sway of his body, he transformed into golden light and headed towards the direction he had foreseen.
The very next second after Li Xingkong light, a beam of light as thick as a planet struck the planet squarely.
Those Snail People who had escaped from Li Xingkong's clutches and were still searching for a safe place were all turned to ashes by this attack. Even the planet itself was shattered from its core into more than ten fragments, which disintegrated under the influence of gravity.
This attack was none other than the main gun fired from the Snail People Star Destroyer.
The Snail People truly live up to their reputation as a conquering civilization; their war efficiency is remarkably fast, and their methods are far more ruthless than Li Xingkong's.
Li Xingkong doesn't treat them as human beings, but that only means he won't deliberately avoid harming civilians while eliminating the resistance forces. The Snail People's own fleet is different; they wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice a planet just to destroy him.
Fortunately, Li Xingkong Hexagram warning and ran out of the main gun's attack range in advance; otherwise, Li Xingkong would have been in considerable pain from that shot.
Reincarnated from light, Li Xingkong used the fragments created by the planet's collapse to unleash the Ten Thousand Swords Art, delivering a fierce blow to the fleet that was closing in from all directions.
They tore a gap directly in the fleet's defensive perimeter.
"Reassessed; the threat level is extremely high. Mobilize all forces and eliminate them!"
Although the Intelligent Brain on this planet has been eliminated, the other Intelligent Brain are still monitoring the situation. The moment Li Xingkong made his move, they immediately upgraded the danger level of his target to the highest level.
At this level of threat, the entire civilization will resort to any means necessary to eliminate the target.
The planet-destroying cannon is powerful, but it's just an appetizer. The Snail People's so-called "no-holds-barred" approach is even more brutal.
Li Xingkong's Ten Thousand Swords Art did indeed eliminate dozens of frigates and cruiser-class warships, but this number was negligible within the encirclement.
A barrage of space weapons was launched, illuminating the entire cosmos in an instant.
Li Xingkong didn't deliberately dodge; he dodged what he could, and used his Magic Power shield to neutralize what he couldn't. Li Xingkong's actions weren't disrupted, and he continued his counterattacks calmly and methodically.
The so-called war of attrition is meaningless to him.
The energy consumed in battle will be quickly replenished under the starlight.
He was completely soaked in blood; it was wishful thinking for the opposing side to wear him down.
Each of Li Xingkong's counterattacks could take down a number of ships within a certain range. Apart from the Star Destroyer, which was relatively sturdy, the other warships were basically destroyed with a single touch.
The war of attrition lasted less than half an hour before the Snail People's reinforcements stopped arriving. Even if they were a warlike civilization, their warships were not inexhaustible.
Seeing that their efforts were ineffective, they changed their final plan.
"Use the galactic annihilation bomb to bury the entire galaxy with him."
"Calculation complete, support."
"Support."
"Support."
These Intelligent Brain are indeed cold-blooded. In their calculations, ordinary Snail People are not even operators; only the economic losses they incur are a number in their formula.
Seeing that reinforcements had disappeared and that the Star Destroyer was at its last gasp, Li Xingkong's movements slowed down slightly.
The star destroyer cannons could not be fired again, and judging from the appearance of the warship, it would take a long time to prepare. Without this attack method, the star destroyer was nothing more than a pig with a bit more health in Li Xingkong's eyes.
Just as Li Xingkong was preparing to deliver the final blow, Li Xingkong suddenly noticed a change in the star of the galaxy not far away.
The enormous star seemed to shrink into a bubble, suddenly contracting towards a single point. As it contracted, a violent energy surge, powerful enough to overturn the entire galaxy, emanated from it.
madman!
Li Xingkong's eyes narrowed sharply. This overwhelming sense of crisis caused several Hexagram in his mind to issue warnings, with dense red characters filling his entire field of vision.
