Chapter 1023: Defeating the Alien King!
Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation
"Warning! Warning! No. 7 Protector Battleship had suffered a 10% damage to its shield. Based on estimations, the enemy is 80% likely to be a peak-Type 7 or Type 8 alien."
Yue Zhong's eye flashed with a hint of shock, "What?! A 10% damage in just one hit?! Doesn't that mean that the Battleship will fail after just 10 attacks?! That alien is that strong?!"
Since every Battleship required at least 2 Type 7 Mutant Beast nuclei, their defenses were quite astonishing. Even a Type 7 expert might not necessarily be able to tear apart this shield so easily.
And yet, a single strike from the Alien King was enough to whittle 10% away of the shield. Its might was truly frightening.
Hong! Hong! Hong!
The Alien King continued to flicker in the air, slamming into the shield continuously. Although each hit was not as strong as the 1st one that took off 10% of the energy, they were still enough to wear down between 4 to 6% each time.
Under the constant barrage, No. 7 Protector Battleship continued to shudder.
The remaining Battleships opened fire, under Bai Yi's control, blasting mercilessly at the Type 7 Alien King.
Its speed was truly terrifying, managing to dodge just barely even with Bai Yi's control over the particle cannons. Only a few beams were able to strike its body.
When those beams slammed into it, they were directly consumed by the black energy surrounding the alien, not even scratching it.
On board each and every Protector Battleship, there was the main cannon. When deployed at full might, a single beam could kill a Type 7 Divine Warrior. However, due to the close proximity of the ships, they were unable to utilize it. Against this Alien King, it was like using a cannon against a mosquito. It was likely that they will miss.
Even with Bai Yi's control, it was not a 100% guarantee, that they could use the Protector Battleships to take out the Alien King in one hit.
Yue Zhong suddenly gained clarity, "No! I need to act! At the very least, I have to force it away, otherwise, all 12 Battleships will fall at its hands!"
He frowned, "But, I've just reached the Type 7 realm, while the Alien King is at the peak. It's going to be damn difficult!!"
After Yue Zhong reached the Type 7 realm, coupled with his Second Order God-Devil Body, he had the confidence of defeating most peak-Type 7 human experts.
However, the Alien King was a different case altogether. It could slaughter a peak-Type 7 human expert in barely a second. No matter how strong Yue Zhong was, he had no confidence he could survive from a clash with it.
"That's right! I still have this!!" Yue Zhong's eyes brightened, as he whisked out 10 jade-like 10,000-year-old Tree Cores the size of 2 fingers. He then gobbled them all up.
The moment he consumed them, they transformed into a cooling nourishment that traveled through his body. The light-golden blood in his body absorbed the contents, and the golden-hue intensified.
After absorbing the cool energy, it began to course through his body, and the huge life force within him started to mix with it, transforming into a new energy. His strength began to rise by another 30%, breaking through to the mid-Type 7 realm.
Yue Zhong sensed the changes and frowned slightly, "Still not enough!"
The Alien King could fly in the sky and had terrifying combat strength, even if Yue Zhong grew by a small stage, it was still far from enough.
"I still have this Treasure of Hope."
His eyes brightened, and pulled out the Stealth Armor, causing all signs and presence to disappear.
After being completely hidden, Yue Zhong flew out from the No. 1 Protector Battleship, sneaking his way over towards the No. 7 Battleship.
Currently, the energy shield of the Battleship was flickering, already on the verge of dissipating.
While the attacks of the Alien King was able to wear down on the energy shield, the shield itself could continually repair. As long as the Alien King could not totally destroy it, it would continue to recover.
However, there was still a limit to it. Right now, the damage of the Alien King far outstripped the rate of recovery. Given enough time, the energy shield would soon crumble.
Yue Zhong flew over to the middle of the ship, before stopping all motion and giving an order, "Bai Yi, force it over here!!"
"Yes!"
Receiving his order, Bai Yi adjusted the aim of cannons. At that instant, countless laser beams fired at the Alien King.
At the same time, numerous Satellites Orbital Cannons adjusted their aims, firing down upon the Alien King.
Under Bai Yi's control, the countless laser and light beams formed a firenet that had no gap, firing at the Alien King's position.
The innate combat potential of the Alien King was terrifying, it sensed the weakest link of the fire net and charged right through. Of that countless beams, only 40 plus beams struck it but were easily blocked by the black energy surrounding it.
At the moment it thought it had bested the fire net, the hidden Yue Zhong exploded out with all his strength, the God-Devil Flame shrouding his hands as he punched at the body of the Alien King.
The Alien King had not expected a person to be there, and by the time it felt the intense killing intent, it was too late. Yue Zhong's fists enveloped with the God-Devil Flame blasted into its protecting energy.
Hong!
Following a terrifying energy shockwave, Yue Zhong's fists slammed into the energy around the Alien King, burning through it like a hot knife through butter, and struck the body of the Alien King viciously.
Dang!!
Yue Zhong already had the Second Order God-Devil Body, his fists could destroy an entire building, and a single slap could flatten a tank. If he threw a punch with all his might, he could even obliterate an entire mountain.
However, when that strike of his slammed into the Alien King, all it did was cause a loud bang as though he had just struck metal. The exoskeleton of the Alien King was crushed in about 20cm, but that was the limit. It could be seen how overpowered the defense of the Alien King was.
Even so, Yue Zhong channeled his God-Devil Flames to start burning the exoskeleton, as it melted and released a strong stench of rotting.
The God-Devil Flames could burn through anything, even the exoskeleton of the Type 7 Alien King could not withstand.
The Type 7 Alien King felt a wave of pain and swung its huge tail against Yue Zhong's position viciously.
Although it could not see him, it could sense the rough position based on the killing intent Yue Zhong released earlier.
All of a sudden, 16 bloody radiances congealed around Yue Zhong.
As the tail of the Alien King slammed into the bloody radiance, it almost collapsed, but it had managed to block the strike.
"Die!!"
Yue Zhong's eyes flashed with an icy light, as he channeled his God-Devil Flames, causing it to envelop the entire frame of the Alien King. At the same time, he channeled the Seventh Order Gravity Manipulation, causing it to sink.
While the Alien King was being bombarded by Yue Zhong's ruthless assault, Bai Yi continued to control the weapons to fire light and laser beams at its position, thoroughly enveloping it.
The display of flames and fire and light beams caused a spectacular and dazzling display of fireworks.
All of a sudden, a number of black lights glowed out brightly among the explosions, forcing the God-Devil Flames away.
At the center of the black radiance, the heavily injured Alien King appeared, its abdomen charred black, its exoskeleton dented in many areas, as well as huge amount of corrosive blood flowing.
The moment it appeared, it flapped it swings, turning into a meteor as it tried to flee. It was extremely intelligent and knew that it was currently outnumbered. Since it had suffered so many grievous injuries, if it chose to fight on, it would likely perish.
Its maximum speed was Mach-10, but with its current injuries, it could only reach Mach-8, in a few breaths, it had disappeared entirely.
Yue Zhong watched it disappear and frowned, "What a terrifying enemy. Crafty and slippery!"
If the Alien King continued to fight on, Yue Zhong had a 70% confidence in killing it. However, it fled, and Yue Zhong knew that he could not do anything about it. Even if he utilized all his trump cards, it would only be sufficient to injure it further, but not killing it. This was how terrifying it was. The next time he came across it, it was bound to be even stronger and tougher to deal with.
Yue Zhong cast another deep look at the direction where the Alien King fled, and returned back to the No.1 Protector Battleship.
