" Space Emperor, welcome to our Demon Hammer Squad! Joining our Demon Hammer Squad is definitely the wisest choice you can make!" A blond youth with a face that fits the general human aesthetic standard stepped forward and greeted him warmly.
The Demon Hammer King pointed at the other person, then looked at Luo Ao and introduced him with a smile, "This is ' Lai Yin,' an extremely powerful martial artist with the strength of Early Marquis. Don't let his carefree personality fool you; his strength is quite impressive!"
"This one, codenamed Hidden Fox, is also an extremely powerful martial artist." The second person Demon Hammer King was a thin young man with curly hair and a green headscarf.
The thin young man looked quite normal, but his expression was rather stiff. He merely glanced at Luo Ao and didn't say a word.
"This is Yi Zi, a Controller at the level of Marquis Immortal." Yi Zi was the Yao Rao and charming Rainbow Butterfly Race, a very attractive and beautiful woman.
" Heavenly Sound, a rare illusionist."
This is a red-haired, sleepy-eyed guy, but with such an illusionist providing support, the whole team will have an easier time in battle.
"These two brothers, Thunderbolt and Raging Waves, are both martial artists..."
Thunderbolt and Raging Waves are clearly from the same race— the Blade Race. The two look almost identical, and their weapons and armor are of the same style, except one is red and the other is blue.
" Po Luo, a rare beast tamer. Don't let his small size fool you; once he unleashes his several powerful beasts, their combat strength is astonishing." Po Luo is none other than the Earth Kui Race who is only a little over a meter tall.
However, as the saying goes, appearances can be deceiving. Po Luo's true strength was second only to Demon Hammer King among the original eight members, and Po Luo was also the vice-captain of this team.
The diminutive Immortal God, standing upright on his seat, nodded slightly to Luo Ao. Despite his small stature, none of his enemies dared to look down on him.
Demon Hammer King, Lai Yin, Hidden Lone, Yi Zi, Heavenly Sound, Thunderbolt, Raging Waves, Po Luo are the eight members of this elite divine squad. All of them are Immortal God, and most of them are even Marquis Immortal. Moreover, they are beings who have survived thousands of battles, and their strength is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary Marquis Immortal.
Luo Ao successfully joined the Demon Hammer Squad. However, since the Demon Hammer Squad's rest period would last for another seven days, Luo Ao could only wait at the Barracks Base during this time, while listening to the other team members share their experiences about the Outer Domain Battlefield.
Although he had already found most of the information himself, Luo Ao listened carefully to the veterans' accounts of some detailed experiences in fighting, killing, and surviving on the ' Outer Domain Battlefield '.
He is very strong, but he doesn't dare to be too careless.
On this Outer Domain Battlefield... there are countless powerful Alien Race, their methods of killing are unpredictable and bizarre, and Immortal God lurk everywhere. Even a peak-level Immortal King Rank Limit could perish. How could he dare to be careless?
Seven days later, the Demon Hammer Squad, having rested and regrouped, finally began their next operation.
Inside a large hall with a diameter exceeding 30,000 kilometers, the entire Demon Hammer Squad gathered, fully prepared for battle.
Inside the hall, spaceships were lined up in their respective orders. Some of these spaceships were thousands of meters in diameter, while others were only a hundred meters in diameter.
The number of space warriors carried on spaceships also varies. Some spaceships can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, while others, like the Demon Hammer Squad, only have a few powerful warriors.
"Let's go!" The Demon Hammer King, clad in heavy black armor, exuded an awe-inspiring presence. With a low shout, he swiftly retrieved a black spaceship shaped like a flywheel from his World Ring.
Wow!
The hatch opened.
Demon Hammer King was the first to quickly board the spaceship through the hatch, followed closely by the others. Luo Ao was the last to board, and the hatch closed immediately.
A dense array of spaceships were seen parked in the assembly hall, then slowly flew forward and entered the passage one by one.
Once inside the spaceship, Demon Hammer King took the lead, his voice booming from the front. "Let's go to the lounge."
No one questioned it, and everyone followed suit.
A moment later.
The group arrived at the rest hall. The cabin was made of G9 grade metal " Golden Feather Iron Essence " and was about 20 meters in diameter. For the Demon Hammer King, who was over eight meters tall, the place was not spacious, but it was quite reassuring.
Because this lounge is made entirely of G9 grade metal, its sturdiness is top-notch, making it a veritable 'safe house'.
Only in this lounge could they slightly relax their minds, which had been constantly tense on the battlefield.
Of course, this seemingly inconspicuous lounge is also extremely valuable, far more precious than Luo Ao's entire F9-class spaceship. Even for Peak Marquis expert, creating such a 'safe house' would be quite a challenge.
"Haha, I can afford a lounge, but if you want to buy a G9-class spaceship, that's beyond my means!" Demon Hammer King said with a laugh, and Luo Ao nodded in agreement.
" Space Emperor, this is your first time entering the battlefield, and you haven't even seen what the Barracks Base looks like yet. You can't miss this opportunity." Captain Demon Hammer King sat on the middle sofa with a smile, drinking some kind of dark, unidentified liquid.
At the same time, he ordered, "Exterior scene simulation 100%."
drop!
The spaceship's cabin structure seemed to vanish in an instant. Luo Ao only saw spaceships rapidly flying into the passageway in the vast hall. Soon, the spaceship carrying the Demon Hammer Squad also flew into the passageway.
"It's truly spectacular." There are just too many spaceships here; the few of them are like insignificant fish lost in an endless deep sea. They are surrounded by a vast number of other 'fish'.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, a series of vibrations occurred.
The gates along that straight corridor, stretching hundreds of thousands of kilometers, fell and began to close tightly.
at the same time!
The outermost gates of the massive Barracks Base began to open; of the tens of thousands of passageways, only a few hundred gates were opened.
"Activate energy defense, spaceship, launch!" Captain Demon Hammer King immediately ordered.
The spaceship is controlled by intelligence, and the same intelligence can be commanded from the lounge.
"Whoosh!"
The spaceship instantly flew out of one of the passageways of the huge Barracks Base into the void. Immediately, Luo Ao could clearly see the huge Barracks Base floating in the void through the virtual external view.
The entire war base was millions of kilometers in diameter! Larger than the sun!
The massive war base was completely enveloped in a layer of colorful energy shield, containing mysterious and powerful solidification Law Secret Patterns. The mechanical cannons, each hundreds of kilometers in diameter, looked ferocious and terrifying. Observing it up close like this was an unimaginable shock!
"It's spectacular!"
Even with Luo Ao's broad perspective, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"This is a top-tier AAA-Rank Deity Base!" The blond youth, Lai Yin, stared at the Barracks Base with fervent eyes. "Every Barracks Base is our Human Race's main base on the Outer Domain Battlefield, meaning absolute security. Even a powerful being like Universe Country Lord wouldn't be able to destroy this AAA-Rank Deity Base!"
"Look at those cannon muzzles. Most spaceships use energy beams, but these mechanical cannons at the God Base, though seemingly outdated, can instantly obliterate the vast surrounding starry sky once unleashed, even against billions of powerful beings!"
"Ignore him, this kid is obsessed with technological weapons." The Demon Hammer King shook his head.
While this divine base is terrifying, the true reliance of the Human Race has never been on these technological creations.
Of course, mechanical weapons do have their appeal, and the Human Race's achievements in this area are second only to the Machine Race.
Inside the spaceship's lounge.
Luo Ao stared at the empty space outside.
Although the spaceship was traveling at near-light speed, his eyesight still allowed him to clearly see the outside world, such as shattered Zerg corpses, broken spaceship wreckage, and human remains, all floating in the void.
Some were directly struck by the spaceship.
" The Barracks Base is a haven for cosmic warriors. Once you leave the Barracks Base, this vast Cosmic Secret Realm, millions of light-years in diameter, becomes a battlefield... Space Emperor, are you feeling nervous seeing such a scene for the first time?"
Lai Yin lay comfortably on the sofa, swirling the wine in his glass before gulping it down and letting out a burp. He appeared quite relaxed, clearly already used to the atmosphere here.
"Nervous? Or rather, excited. I'm already looking forward to the battle that's coming soon." Luo Ao smiled slightly.
"Hahaha!" Captain Demon Hammer laughed and said, "It couldn't be better if you had this kind of mentality."
Bloody battles can break out at any moment, and one must always be prepared to face unknown dangers; this is the most terrifying and brutal aspect of the Outer Domain Battlefield.
Newcomers often experience negative emotions such as nervousness and panic, but Luo Ao's mental state appears to be quite good.
Of course, his strong mental state also stems from his confidence in his own abilities.
"Don't rush, this is just the outer area; it's not that easy for a battle to break out here."
"We'll soon arrive at an area where there's no wreckage or trash, allowing us to accelerate to the speed of light for Cosmic Shuttle. Once we enter the Dark Universe, we'll have about ten days to rest. After arriving on the Yanji Continent, the real bloody battle will begin."
The Cosmic Secret Realm is different from the normal cosmic sky. There is too much dust and debris, so a large area must be deliberately cleared to remove any obstacles in order to accelerate the Cosmic Shuttle.
In the Seventh Starfield Battlefield, there are hundreds of millions of such Universe Shuttle Point.
Luo Ao and the others avoided some dangerous areas as much as possible in their spaceship, and soon arrived at the cleared area.
However, even within this short distance, Luo Ao sensed the energy fluctuations from several battles.
Fortunately, they were traveling in F-class spaceship, which was standard equipment for Marquis-level Immortal Gods, so no one dared to provoke them in this low-level combat zone.
After traveling in the Dark Universe for ten days, the spaceship arrived at the shuttle point near the Yanji Continent.
"Everyone be careful, don't be careless." In the rest area, Captain Demon Hammer King pointed to a patch of empty space outside, completely free of debris. "It will take the spaceship nearly three days to reach the Yanji Continent from this cleared area. We could encounter powerful Alien Race here at any time, and battles could break out at any moment."
"Don't worry, Captain." Lai Yin laughed, took out two silver-white battle swords, and tapped them together. "We've been partners for so long, when have you ever seen us hold you back?"
"I'm fine with it too." Seeing someone looking over, Luo Ao indicated that he would be careful.
The Demon Hammer King glanced over, nodded at Luo Ao, and then continued, "Although we have very advanced detection equipment, making the chance of being ambushed extremely low, we can't be careless. If someone has even more advanced detection equipment than me, they might sneak up and launch a surprise attack!"
Therefore, always be careful and vigilant.
"Understood." Everyone nodded.
Of course, the Demon Hammer King's detection equipment was already quite advanced, not to mention that Luo Ao was also there. His detection equipment was also very expensive and definitely more powerful than the Demon Hammer King's.
The F9-class spaceship cautiously advanced through the void at near-light speed. Floating debris, including corpses, shipwrecks, and weapon fragments, was visible everywhere. The spaceship tried its best to avoid places where powerful individuals might be hiding.
Three days later.
The black flying wheel, which had been flying for a long time on the Outer Domain Battlefield, finally arrived at its destination.
The Demon Hammer King ordered, "100% virtual exterior scenery."
Suddenly, the starry sky outside became clearly visible.
" The Yanji Continent." Luo Ao looked ahead. "We've finally arrived."
In the distant starry sky, there lies a vast and boundless continent. Beyond that continent, suspended in the starry sky, lie other equally large fragments of the continent.
The Yanji Continent is divided into the Main Continent and numerous land fragments surrounding it. Although they are just land fragments, some of the larger fragments have diameters exceeding trillions of kilometers, which gives an idea of their immense size.
"Whoosh!"
A black flywheel is flying over a piece of land debris.
"It's huge."
"This place Yellow Sand Island," said Yi Zi, a beautiful woman from the Rainbow Butterfly Race, standing beside Luo Ao.
"The last time we came to Yellow Sand Island was more than three thousand years ago."
"More or less." The members of the Demon Hammer Squad stood in the control room, looking down at the vast, endless land below.
The Yanji Continent, despite its name, has an extremely complex geographical environment, featuring deserts, rocky mountains, volcanic clusters, jungles, islands, streams, and even some floating islands.
Besides the Main Continent, there are many other land fragments on the Yanji Continent. These land fragments are all called islands, and the place where they are now is a land fragment. Since it is a desert terrain, it is also called Yellow Sand Island.
" The Main Continent Yanji Continent is teeming with powerful beings, including many Marquis-level Immortal Gods, and even King Rank Immortal God. Therefore, it is extremely dangerous. Many Immortal God who feel they are not strong enough venture into these islands. The Yellow Sand Island we are currently on is considered one of the larger islands," Yi Zi continued gently as she explained to Luo Ao.
"Although there are many powerful Alien Race here, almost all of those Immortal God are at the ' Immortal Army Lord ' level. There are about 13 Marquis-level Immortal gods on the island, maybe more, but 13 have been confirmed. These 13 Marquis Immortal God are considered overlords and tyrannical figures on Yellow Sand Island."
"At least 13 Immortal God of Marquis?" Luo Ao nodded, and at the same time understood what Demon Hammer King and the others meant.
Given the composition of their small team, they would normally be exploring the Main Continent. They only made this special trip to Yellow Sand Island to take care of him, the 'newcomer' in the team.
