Chapter 172 Tira’s Decision

Inside the Legendary Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, Tira scrambled to her feet and immediately issued an order.

“Switch the power supply engine for the Immortal Shield.”

“Switching to the No. 2 Ark Heart power engine.”

“Switching complete!”

In the next second, the Immortal Shield was reactivated.

“Full speed ahead!”

Tira then issued the second order.

The Legendary Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, instantly powered up to full capacity, fleeing at maximum speed towards the distant starry sky.

“Hmph! Trying to escape?”

VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron, directly disengaged from the neural link assembly, then single-handedly pursued the Immortal Blade at high speed, with the other Ling Touchers severing their connections and hastily following.

In the command room, Su Mo looked at the huge red dot on the scanning radar, as well as the image of the VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron, captured by the optical device, and said in astonishment.

“VI-type Ling Toucher, and one I’ve never seen before, this is...”

“This is the Eternal Slumber Clan’s Deputy Clan Leader, VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron,”

The Creator Devourer replied in a deep voice.

“Wait, another new Deputy Clan Leader? Just how many Deputy Clan Leaders does this Eternal Slumber Clan have?”

Su Mo didn’t know how to express his shock.

At this moment, the Creator Devourer explained to Su Mo, “There are many, and there’s nothing to be shocked about.”

“How can I not be shocked? They’re all VI-types, how are we supposed to fight if there’s a whole bunch of them?”

Su Mo replied somewhat uneasily.

“The Eternal Slumber Clan is not a small race, it has already unified the universe it resides in. One thing that sets this race apart from other races is that they don’t have elders, but instead, they’ve established a bunch of Deputy Clan Leaders.”

“Why?”

“The reason is simple: it absorbed and incorporated too many other races. In order to maintain internal unity, the original clan leaders of each absorbed race became Deputy Clan Leaders of the Eternal Slumber Clan.”

“But when I look at their forms, aren’t they all pretty much the same?”

Su Mo became more confused as he listened.

“That’s because they all abandoned their original forms and evolutionary paths, choosing to transform along with the Eternal Slumber Clan.”

The Creator Devourer gave a simple explanation.

Upon hearing this, Su Mo’s expression grew even stranger as he replied, “Good grief, they’re being skinned alive to join!”

“You don’t understand, everything is for the sake of evolution, for eternal life. If the so-called flesh and body become obstacles on the path of evolution, they can be discarded as well,”

The Creator Devourer replied in a deep voice.

“Forget it, I can’t comprehend it.”

Su Mo didn’t say much more.

Just then, Longke cried out in horror,

“Captain, this is bad, that monster is so fast, it’s rapidly approaching!”

“Don’t panic!”

Tira immediately performed a series of operations.

The high-speed advancing Immortal Blade opened launch ports one after another, ejecting three nuclear mines and two antimatter missiles in one go.

“Hmph!”

VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron, opened its mouth and swept at the incoming missiles.

Rumble~

One dazzling ball of light after another lit up.

Immediately afterward, VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron, passed through the explosion zone at an extremely high speed, hardly affected.

“Damn it.”

Tira kept operating, opening launch ports and ejecting a large number of missiles backward.

Rumble~

The starry sky behind the Immortal Blade continuously erupted with brilliant fireworks, but the effect was minimal.

VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron, was simply too agile, and its stance armor was extremely sturdy. Even if it was accidentally affected, it could easily withstand it.

Its speed didn’t slow down much, so it was getting closer and closer to the Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade.

“This isn’t good, it’s catching up.”

Longke’s face turned green with fright.

Just then, the pursuing VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron, opened its mouth, all its neural circuits lit up, its biological reactions soared, and it accumulated a terrifying beam that blasted over.

Boom~

The entire Legendary Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, shook violently.

The strength of the Immortal Shield instantly dropped by thirty-three percent.

Su Mo frowned tightly. In fact, if only VI-type Hero-class, Kaloron, was chasing them, there wouldn’t be too much to fear, and the Legendary Star Destroyer, Immortal Blade, wasn’t necessarily weaker than it.

The problem was the dark mass of troops following behind it.

If the Immortal Blade was intercepted, it would be absolutely doomed.

“This isn’t good, we’re not as fast as it, it’s going to catch up.”

Longke was also panicking.

“Let me think.”

Su Mo stroked his chin and pondered.

At this moment, the virtual images of Kendi and Yan Gang appeared, and they volunteered.

“Lord Su Mo, we’ll go and intercept that VI-type Ling Toucher. Although our combat power isn’t enough to defeat it, we can still stop it and delay it for a while.”

“That’s right, we’ll go and intercept it.”

......

Brave and fearless voices rang out in the communication channel.

Su Mo was also quite touched, knowing that intercepting a VI-type enemy was basically no different from courting death.

But Kendi and the others, from top to bottom, didn’t even blink, showing no fear.

Moreover, from their confident assertion that they could intercept it for a short while, it was clear that they were going with the determination to die.

Tira then waved her hand and said in a deep voice, “Granted! Good luck to you all.”

However, just at that moment, Su Mo interrupted.

“No need, I’ll go myself.”

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Tira’s expression changed slightly, and she immediately rejected, “No, you can’t go, it’s too dangerous. If something happens to you, everything we do will be meaningless.”

“We’re comrades, there’s no reason for me to let you go to your deaths when I know it’s certain death. Besides, I’ve dared to face two VI-type biological armors at the same time, am I still afraid of it? But don’t worry, even if I can’t beat it, can’t I still escape?”

“But.”

“No buts, I have the final say!”

Su Mo forcefully decided.

Seeing Su Mo say this, Tira and the others swallowed back the words that were on their lips. They were also extremely moved, after all, a master as good as this was hard to find.

Then Su Mo instructed Tira, “Select a coordinate region and send it to me, we’ll meet at those coordinates later.”

“Okay!”

Tira nodded heavily.

“Artificial Intelligence An Ling, open a rapid transit passage.”

Su Mo issued an order to Artificial Intelligence An Ling.

Immediately, the floor in the corner of the command room cracked open, revealing a small lifting platform.

Su Mo stepped onto it, and the small lifting platform descended, quickly heading straight to Hangar 1.

......

Soon, Su Mo boarded the Mad Eye Reinock.

At this moment, Irene’s silver-bell-like laughter rang out.

“Are we going into battle so soon?”

“Cough cough! I’m not used to being the boss, I still prefer to do things myself.”

Su Mo replied with a smile.

The Creator Devourer said in a deep voice, “You should have let Kendi and the others go to intercept it. With their combat power, it wouldn’t be a problem for them to harass it for a while. Subordinates are meant to be expendable.”
