Free Web NovelChapter 1837: Chapter 85: The Drones Join the Frenzy (Part 2)
The Green Little Dragon looked up wearily, and then changed his tone:
"But... I sensed unwillingness from him... He must be making his final push... trying to transcend in the moment of death, to comprehend that most critical Heavenly Dao Law, defying fate, transcending reincarnation, tsk tsk... this boy does have some spirit..."
"Yet throughout history, countless prodigies have fallen at this step, his gamble, I’m afraid the outcome won’t be as he wishes... In my opinion, the chance of success is less than one in ten thousand... just consider him already dead."
Zhang Xiaoman shared what he heard with Yeluo, while Zi Kuang listened intently. Both fell silent after hearing the ultimate fate of Blue White Clothes.
A peak Lower God thus perished, falling at the doorstep to immortality, which somewhat made them feel akin to their own kind.
Zhang Xiaoman looked at the two absorbed in their own sorrow and then at the insect swarm rushing over, thinking you really treat me as a big shot, huh, standing here doesn’t seem right, didn’t you see those four or five Ancestor Worms already charging toward us, you really trust me!
However, just as he was about to remind the two, the insect swarm charging swiftly seemed to suddenly hit the brakes, each stopping in its tracks, even the five Ancestor Worms were no exception.
"What happened... why did they stop...?"
"What else could it be, they must be intimidated by that adult’s strength, too scared to come forward!"
"This doesn’t seem right... how would Desert Worms know this...if that were true, they wouldn’t... wait, look over there! What’s that!?"
Within the fleet, everyone showed surprise, seeing the Desert Worms suddenly turn collectively, assuming a battle stance in the direction they came from.
"That... that is..."
People on the Alliance Army side also observed through the ship’s equipment the situation behind the swarm, instantly widening their eyes in fear, as if seeing a ghost.
"It’s the Death Omen Star... it’s the Death Omen Star! Those guys have arrived!!"
Some fell to the ground in disbelief, appearing on the verge of collapsing.
At this moment, everyone in the Alliance Army fell silent, as a massive entity with a diameter exceeding 500 billion kilometers – half a star distance – appeared at the end of their line of sight.
Zhang Xiaoman naturally also saw the scene over there, a huge black sphere entered the battlefield, its appearance immediately making the Insect Race wary.
"A black sphere... with an exterior seeming mechanical... could this be... the mother planet of Beller drones?"
A huge exclamation mark emerged in his mind; he had heard of this thing before, and in terms of appearance and size, it seemed identical to what he knew.
Death Omen Star!
This must be the Death Omen Star!
Zhang Xiaoman’s pupils contracted dramatically.
And judging by its size, this thing’s level probably wasn’t weaker than an extra-large Level 7 Insect Swarm.
He felt a bit overwhelmed.
Why hasn’t the Insect Race been dealt with, and now the Beller Clan has joined the chaos?
Aren’t those drones supposed to be cat-like, never leaving their own homes? Why today are they going wild, what’s got them all running over?
The distant huge planet’s oppressive force wasn’t weaker than that of the previous insect swarm, bearing in mind this thing’s level wasn’t low, and these drones could battle the Insect Race for so many years, their combat power was absolutely not weaker than the insects, now coming here, there’s no way out!
Zhang Xiaoman sympathetically glanced at those people behind, thinking he didn’t need to worry about escaping; with Unlimited Teleportation unimpeded, he could leave without pressure, and could even bring a few people through the Original Realm.
Yet, what he could do stopped there, not that he’s unwilling to help them, but he truly can’t manage it, he was starting to suspect these families had offended some goddess of luck or similar entities, their luck was too poor, today truly pushing them to a dead end!
Thinking this, information about the Death Omen Star he had once seen on the dark web surfaced in Zhang Xiaoman’s mind again.
This entity appears very rarely, with only a handful of recorded instances in history, but every appearance signifies the arrival of infinite death, hence it’s called "Death Omen Star".
The true name of the Death Omen Star is "Beller Cluster Ultimate Battle Mothership", also often referred to as the mother planet of the Beller Clan.
How many Death Omen Stars exist in the Beller Star Domain, no one knows; typically, this race uses collected Spiritual Ores as resources, creating a hive similar to a space station, known as drone nests.
However, such drone nests aren’t the ultimate destination of their race; rather, planet-like mobile fortresses like the Death Omen Star are.
This Death Omen Star is entirely composed of spiritual metal structure, containing all the strength of the entire clan, once in combat, countless drones swarm in, unstoppable, laying waste to everything in its path.
Typically, the Beller Clan doesn’t leave their territory, unless they exhaust all resources within it, they are like busy bees, unless you appear in their sight, they won’t cross borders to attack you.
However, now, possibly attracted by the previous Extraordinary Level battle, this Death Omen Star left the range of the Beller Star Domain, invading the Dark Spirit Star Domain.
The Desert Worm Clan had only fought halfway, now facing drones, Zhang Xiaoman expressed that he’s truly overwhelmed.
But compared to his anxiety, others seemed much calmer.
By this time, Alliance Army members had shifted from their previous fear upon discovering the Death Omen Star, to a mindset of watching the show.
Initially they were scared by the sudden large black metal sphere, but regaining their senses, they realized there’s no need to be overly worried.
Though the Death Omen Star is terrifying, they have Ji Xing on their side, a transcendent existence beyond Lower God Level, regardless of the Death Omen Star’s presence, Ji Xing could easily crush it!
It’s precisely this powerful backing that led Alliance Army members no longer to feel as tense and desperate as before; the combat power of a Middle-level Transcendent definitely isn’t something these insects and small drones can match.
Zhang Xiaoman hadn’t realized he had once again become the hope of the people, his focus was entirely on that Death Omen Star, as the distance closed, it was about to clash with the insects.
"Roar!!"
Several Ancestor Worms were now completely ignoring the human fleet; in their eyes, these drones posed a real threat, and also in terms of nutritional quality, the latter clearly had more consumption value, for drones are treasures in their entirety, generally composed of various Dark Spiritual Materials, resembling mechanically structured intelligent life. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
Now, the Humans had another bit of good news, insects and drones are also mortal enemies, with the addition of drones, these insects couldn’t spare attention for the Alliance Army people in the short term, the two sides were sure to fight fiercely.
The bad news is, the Death Omen Star also has spatial lock ability, leaving the Alliance Army struggling to escape, only able to watch as the two groups clash, hoping they tear each other apart.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Xiaoman breathed a slight sigh of relief, realizing the appearance of the drones might not be entirely bad; there’s finally a turning point.
