Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy Chapter 1655 14: Mutated Star Species
Previously on Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy...
Barbaric Ascension Star, a planet that exists within the Black Storm, should have been unknown and unnoticed.
Just by virtue of a terrifying force field that blocks all non-biological energy, it imprinted deeply in Mu Fan's memory.
At that time, the sudden disappearance of the force field was indeed related to the intervention of the Saint Luo Envoy.
However, the source of the force field's creation has always remained a mystery to him.
Today, he finally knows why!
The sound of mountains and rivers collapsing was like rolling thunder, echoing far away.
Buildings within the city began to shake, and the people hiding in the underground plaza were thrown into panic.
When they saw the light screen suddenly extinguish, an unavoidable terror arose in everyone's heart.
"What happened!"
"Why did the power suddenly go out? Isn't the power here supplied directly by the underground energy core?"
Chaos began to spread and escalate.
The Federation garrison on the original Loga Star now had no choice but to forcibly maintain stability.
Outside the city, the situation is perhaps worse than the civilians could imagine.
The garrison and the Empire soldiers who had just arrived to witness this scene were all stunned by the terror of the creature.
Can you imagine the scenario of a giant mountain, three thousand meters high, moving before your eyes?
"What exactly is this creature!"
"Why does our planet have such a creature... Could it be another type of insect?"
On the distant tarmac, a metallic giant dragon suddenly raised its head.
"Roar?"
This feeling, the crystal energy it was digesting began to fade, and the strength of the metallic muscles regained dominance.
Evil Wing's eyes widened.
Is this the terrible feeling of that planet?!
Dragon God above, what happened.
With a roar, the giant dragon angrily flapped its wings and took flight, rushing towards the outskirts of the city.
"Shura!!"
Mu Fan pulled Wang Nuonuo with one hand, angrily shouting at the black mecha that was entirely fearsome at that moment.
Right then, just like on Barbaric Ascension Star, some sticky, tentacle-like black threads began to manifest from the air, pulling at Shura's body.
The scene is identical.
But unlike before, Shura now did not merely have that pitiful amount of energy after the fierce battles.
Instead, it possessed a massive supply of energy replenished after the opening of the Shura Realm!
What can 100% energy do?
Mu Fan's eyes burned with anger.
100% Emperor Body energy is enough for Shura to withstand the force field, and tear this giant beast into pieces before exhausting its energy!
"Roar!——"
The giant mountain beast let out a high-pitched roar, seemingly leaping several hundred meters high before crashing down heavily.
Visible waves spread along the earth, sweeping along hills and vegetation.
The situation grew more precarious, and at this moment all armed forces entered their highest alert status.
However, Nuonuo held Mu Fan's wrist with both hands, pulling it hard.
Yet, Mu Fan's urgent strength was so great that Nuonuo was dragged along the ground.
The girl shouted loudly in panic:
"Wait, wait... Lord, Fuzzy Ball is communicating with me! It says... not to be nervous, it has no ill intent!"
"It is just happy to return to the earth... it is frolicking around."
"It is just a child." Nuonuo's face flushed red.
Hm?
Mu Fan quickly raised his head, eyes flashing with confusion, surprised as he looked back.
In the distance...
The giant beast that had seemed to nearly cause an earthquake in excitement had now obediently submerged into the ground.
Most of its body sank down, though still standing a thousand meters above the surface, it lacked its previous might.
The spreading waves seemed restrained by some special power, disappearing suddenly into the ground.
The tremors ceased.
Mu Fan turned back to look at Shura!
The dense black sticky threads around its body simultaneously vanished into the air.
Meanwhile, in all directions, the extinguished light screens reopened layer by layer.
The blood-red flames burning in Shura's eyes began to gradually fade.
"Threat... neutralized."
The black mecha straightened up, expanding into Star Mist to protect Mu Fan with its cloak but not retracting it.
It was waiting for Mu Fan's final command.
"What's happening?" Empire's Deceitful Fox Mu Tianhua finally had the chance to inquire, even the vast territories of the Gardot Empire had never heard of such creatures.
"Roar~~"
Bang!
A giant dragon that had been flying madly suddenly regained its strength too fast to control, crashing into the ground ahead like a ballistic missile, raising a dust storm nearly a hundred meters high.
Nuonuo's chest heaved violently, disbelief etched on her face.
But at this moment, the most important thing was to explain everything clearly.
"Fuzzy Ball said it had been sleeping and growing... originally two hundred years away from adulthood... awakened by that muscular giant (Saint Luo Envoy)."
"It doesn't know what its parents are, but memory tells it that growth requires the energy of one planet after another; it won't devour a Star Core, only needs the energy it emits for nourishment..."
"Fuzzy Ball is very innocent... its expressions are very timid... like a child babbling." Nuonuo nodded beside her ear, "I can hear its words directly, I can also... feel... huh? The fluctuations in the air, what is it, your fluctuations are so strong, Lord."
The girl paused mid-sentence, suddenly realizing that something might be wrong with herself.
"Spiritual power awakening." Mu Tianhua suddenly spoke, answering first, "Try to control these fluctuations and spread them."
Nuonuo closed her eyes, and after a moment of confusion opened them again, "With my eyes closed, I can still see you... it's like another world."
Unbeknownst to her, Nuonuo had awakened her spiritual power this way.
Realizing she should focus on explaining, she quickly spoke again: "Lord, now Little Fuzzy Ball relies heavily on me, it senses my panic, it doesn't want that, it desires... to express goodwill."
Goodwill?
The words fell.
In the distance came another rumble.
The cracked "mountains" abruptly closed.
Then, in Mu Fan and others' line of sight, a rising Earth Dragon rapidly charged toward them from afar.
Before they could even prepare to guard, the Earth Dragon shrunk from a hundred meters down...
Until it only stood as high as a burrowing groundhog's head, stopping abruptly three meters in front of everyone —
Sudden halt!
The dust that had just been raised was inexplicably drawn back into the earth.
"Squeak?" a fuzzy little creature popped its head out.
Two shiny little eyes stared at Nuonuo.
Everyone could even read joy and excitement from its adorable gaze.
Little Fuzzy Ball jumped up into Nuonuo's arms, squealing excitedly.
Feeling awkwardly silent.
Five seconds later, Little Fuzzy Ball seemed to sense the gazes from everyone, stopped abruptly, and looked at Mu Fan with fearful eyes...
"Squeak."
"Fuzzy Ball said it would give me something, ah."
Nuonuo's delicate fingertip was bitten into a small cut.
Fresh blood quickly seeped out, touched by Little Fuzzy Ball's forehead.
The blood bead melted into its plump forehead, and a complex Blood Seal flashed past.
"What are you doing... huh? I, you?"
Nuonuo confusedly looked up, staring at Mu Fan, "Lord, now I can sense everything Little Fuzzy Ball thinks, it seems to regard me as its mother."
"Source Blood Seal, a legend able to conduct plane travels, possibly resting along with the cosmos, mutated star species." An ancient voice echoed in Mu Fan's ear.
In the virtual space, Mohandas of the Dark Holy Hall witnessed this within the light screen reflecting through Black's projection, events beyond everyone's imagination were finally explained.
"Initially, the records in the tribe considered it merely an ancient legend, who knew..."
"It's actually true."
"This girl has become the master of a mutated star species, which means given enough time, she will be able to control one planet after another."
Mohandas's voice, aged and wise, bore a complex that couldn't be easily described.
"Lord, now it seems I know all of Fuzzy Ball's abilities... it seems it can... block energy fluctuations, attract, and... spread."
"Which means, if it is allowed to fully attach, this planet can instantly disguise itself as a dead, empty star."
As Nuonuo's words fell, both Mu Fan and Mu Tianhua's gazes shifted.
This ability means that if Nuonuo wishes, Loga Star can completely disappear from the sight of the insects!
That means, Mu Fan's one apprehension in attacking the Insect Brain...
Will be resolved!
