Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 264 Allied Forces Besiege the Wild Star, a Significant Number of Ancient Lifeforms

With the star path wide open, fleets continuously converged on the space surrounding the 'Wilderness Star'.

Throughout the entire process, the allied fleet encountered no obstacles.

And so, in this relaxed atmosphere...

Soon, a large fleet was deployed all over the outer edge of the star system of the wild planet.

At the same time, a large number of drones, reconnaissance satellites, and the like were all deployed into the interplanetary orbit of the desolate planet.

After finishing everything, Storm Goddess Gwyneth raised an eyebrow slightly.

"This world's astral plane has no gods at all?"

Among the gods, Moriden, the chief troll god, smiled upon hearing this.

"If we're talking about non-primordial deities, then this world shouldn't have them."

"And the ancient gods certainly wouldn't be willing to coexist with the will of Mana. After all, they can easily break through to the godhood by growing on their own, unlike us non-ancient beings who need to rely on the power of the will of Mana to ascend to godhood."

"Therefore, in this world's astral plane, Mana's will is naturally not controlled by any being."

"Therefore, it's normal that no deity came to prevent our arrival."

"Otherwise, how could our trip have gone so smoothly?"

At this point, Moriden changed the subject again:

"However, our arrival has caused such a great commotion that some ancient deities sleeping beneath this planet, if they have strong sensory abilities, may have also discovered us."

"Of course, compared to these, I am actually more worried about another direct threat."

Upon hearing this, the Storm Goddess Gwyneth changed her mind and looked at Moriden, saying:
"Are you worried about that ancient winged insect god mentioned in the information, who may have already left the planet and is lurking in the nearby star sea?"

Moriden nodded slightly.

"That's true, but so far I haven't detected any movement in the nearby star sea."

"It seems that the winged insect deity is either a little too far away, or it has some kind of ability lurking in an area that we cannot see or sense."

What does the lady think?

The Goddess of Storms surveyed the sea of ​​stars and looked down upon the desolate planet.

He said in just a moment:

"I didn't find anything unusual either."

"That winged insect deity must either be some distance away from the desolate planet, or it must have used some kind of stealth ability to hide itself."

"Of course, there is another possibility, that is, this Feathered Insect God is currently in the subspace near the Savage Star."

"The spatial turbulence and storms within the warp are fraught with risks for us, but they may not pose a great danger to the ancient gods."

Subspace?
Moriden frowned.

If the universe can be viewed as a sheet of paper.

One side is the material interface, and the other side is the subspace.

The so-called subspace is essentially a chaotic space devoid of any order.

In this space, there are turbulent currents and storms everywhere.

Its energy level is incomparably powerful; ordinary weak deities cannot last long inside it.

Even if powerful deities and supreme gods could withstand the damage from the subspace storm for a considerable period of time, they would still be unable to resist the spatial turbulence that could arise at any moment.

Spatial turbulence brings not only external energy storm damage, but its greatest danger is that it may suddenly bring deities to phase coordinates corresponding to different material interfaces.

Thus, when the deities break free from the subspace and reappear on the material plane, they may very well be tens of millions of light-years away in an instant.

Such a terrifying distance means that even if a god possesses a divine kingdom, he cannot establish any substantial connection with the divine kingdom of the original world.

In that case, the gods either have to find a way back on their own, or they can only commit suicide in their divine kingdom to be resurrected and return.

therefore.

Generally speaking, for example, the Exploration Department of the Divine Council of the Troll Empire relies on the mechanism of warp turbulence to continuously search for other life-bearing planets.

The gods entered the subspace.

Matter interfaces between different universes that are swept up by turbulence.

Unable to find habitable planets, or even after finding them, using spiritual markers to anchor themselves before committing suicide to return home.

While this approach is highly efficient, it also consumes a significant amount of resources.

After all, each death of a deity consumes a large amount of spiritual energy, and even if they can be resurrected in the divine realm, they still need a period of recuperation.

Moreover, if a deity dies too many times in a short period of time, the divine kingdom may not be able to resurrect them quickly.

Therefore, the gods of the Troll Empire's Exploration Department are all destined for hard work.

Fortunately, the Troll Empire provides substantial compensation to the Exploration Department, including an abundance of divine crystals. Furthermore, each deity enjoys a nearly century-long rest and vacation after completing an exploration, along with access to the divine cultivation insights of other high-ranking deities within the Empire. Otherwise, no deity would be willing to undertake such explorations.

Even if gods can be resurrected, even if there is compensation, death is still not a good experience.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, most deities are actually quite averse to exploring the warp.

As for the principle of stargates and star paths, it utilizes the spatial laws of the material interface to traverse the gap between subspace and the material interface.

Therefore, once the stargate and star path are connected, it is safe.

But there's no such thing as safety or fixed routes in subspace.

After all, in the subspace, the laws governing all material interfaces may be reversed or rendered useless.

Only the ancient gods, with their terrifying physical bodies, could withstand the subspace storms unscathed.

Of course, when ancient beings ascend to the divine level, their divine laws become equally powerful.

It also has the ability to anchor itself firmly at the corresponding material interface without being swept away by spatial turbulence.

Putting aside other things, the gods like the Storm Goddess can actually anchor themselves firmly to the material interface in the warp for a short period of time using their own power, unless they are powerless and thus could not be swept away by the spatial turbulence.

Therefore, what Gwyneth, the goddess of storms, said is indeed true.

"If this Feathered Insect God really enters the subspace, then things will be really troublesome."

"If He doesn't come out, that's fine, but if He suddenly comes out, our mortal power will likely be greatly diminished in a short period of time."

"I think we should spread out the mortals as much as possible, except for the landing troops, of course."

The Storm Goddess nodded in agreement.

"It is indeed necessary to keep ordinary people at a distance."

After saying this, the two chief gods immediately relayed orders to the mortal command departments of their respective empires.

Thus, under the watchful eyes of the gods, the allied fleets began to move away from the desolate planet, and all the starships began to orderly separate themselves.

This distance is limited to 5,000 kilometers, which is quite far in all directions.

Of course, the allied forces each left fifty starships outside the orbit of the desolate planet.

Moreover, drones and similar devices are still being deployed in large numbers.

The desolate planet isn't large, but it's definitely not small either.

In the starship calculations of the omnipotentiary Anita, the diameter of the Savage Star did not exceed twice the diameter of any known inhabited planet.

However, its diameter is also close to 26,000 kilometers.

A planet with a diameter of 26,000 kilometers?

This is much larger than Theon, the player who had gathered information earlier, had estimated.

Little did people know that Auckland, also a high-energy world in the Middle Ages, only has a diameter of a little over 18,000 kilometers. This is just a comparison of data.

Even the gods couldn't help but praise it.

"No wonder it's a planet capable of giving birth to at least two ancient gods."

"Just considering its size, its special nature is truly evident."

"It's a pity that such a world can't be called a high-magic world."

"How can you call it a pity?"

"Ancient gods, numbering only a handful, whether subdued or killed, the gains would far exceed our imagination."

"This is a fortunate event for both of our empires!"

"I just hope that the ancient gods on this planet aren't too powerful, so that perhaps our Emperor can subdue one?"

"."

The troll gods' ambitions weren't that great.

After all, they were well aware of the power of the ancient gods and their own abilities.

Therefore, this time, the gods of the Troll Empire still agreed as before, hoping only to kill or subdue an ancient god for their own use.

Of course, if all else fails, the only recourse is to seek the corpse of an ancient deity from the Star Empire.

After all, this world was discovered by the Troll Empire.

It was also the 'food' they invited the Star Empire to share.

Therefore, this request is not considered high, and the Star Empire had in fact long planned to share some of its spoils with the Troll Empire.

After all, it is impolite not to reciprocate.

It can be considered a reciprocation of kindness.

Thus, under the watchful eyes of the gods, after a large number of unmanned satellites were deployed and were able to monitor the specific conditions of every piece of land in real time.

A special drone suddenly projected a giant image in front of the Star Gods.

The screen is over a kilometer long and wide, and is divided into a main screen and thousands of smaller screens.

At that moment, the voice of Anita, the so-called God of Machines and the AI, spoke through this special machine in a spiritual transmission manner.

Greetings, everyone.

"Next, I, Anita, the Goddess of Machines, will introduce you to the specific information that has been collected about this planet."

"."

The android Anita began using unmanned satellites and even drones to probe the planet's interior.

It is known that the only continent on the desolate planet is currently occupied by four ancient clans.

The north is occupied by a group of ice crystal orcs whose entire bodies appear to be made of ice and snow.

The south is inhabited by the forest fairies.

The West is occupied by a group of rat-headed people.

As for most of the eastern and central regions, they were undoubtedly all occupied by the Feathered Insect Clan.

Currently, only these four races exist on the mainland.

In the ocean, according to some unmanned underwater vehicles and feedback from the advance forces of the coalition, at least thirteen ethnic groups exist simultaneously.

This also means that there are at least thirteen ancient life forms in the ocean.

Interestingly, the ancient deities in this ocean are significantly weaker than the ancient deities of the four major land races.

This can be concluded from the fact that five marine groups in the near sea united to fight against the greedy winged insect race.

According to the android Anita's deduction.

There may be a total of seventeen ancient life forms or ancient gods still existing on the Wilderness Star.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that there may be other, weaker, or even weaker, ancient life forms hidden among them, which dare not even show their faces and develop their own clans.

"Among the known sea creatures, there are three groups that are the weakest."

"These three races are fighting together against a slightly larger marine race in a narrow sea area, and their gods should not have yet ascended to the divine level."

"Therefore, I suggest that for our first operation, you may start with these three sea creatures."

For Total War, the Omnic Anita suggests that it's not advisable to suddenly launch it.

It would be better to gradually devour other less threatening ancient gods and races first.

In this way, the situation won't immediately become chaotic.

At the same time, the gods also have enough time and ability to deal with those ancient beings who have not yet ascended to godhood, or even those who have just entered the divine realm.

In this way, everyone has contributed their share and will each receive their own credit.

The AI ​​Anita's suggestion is excellent.

Even the gods, knowing all this information, had the same plan.

You can't get fat overnight.

After all, this planet is very large. If war were to break out against all races and ancient life forms at once, the gods would not be able to coordinate and support each other properly in the chaos.

Surely we can't just bring over our strongest fighter, 'Kukudar,' as soon as the war starts, can we?
Then what are these gods?
Therefore, there is no need for the android Anita to strongly suggest it.

Both the Storm God and the Troll God Moriden agreed to the current plan.

These are three ancient beings who have not yet ascended to godhood!
The Troll Empire desperately needs this achievement.

However, even if there are three ancient beings who have not yet ascended to godhood, their true power must not be weak.

It's understandable that a Saint-level or Demigod-level being comparable to a weak god.

Therefore, this battle will not be easy.

After all, the laws of the mortal world would limit the power of the gods and might even prevent them from entering the mortal world in their true form.

Not to mention, every twenty hours or so, a magical storm sweeps across the entire world.

The magic storm will last for about an hour. During this magic storm, the magic power in the bodies of all extraordinary beings will be compressed, making it even difficult to cast magic spells in the material world.

Although it is not yet clear whether the ancient life forms will also be suppressed, their powerful physical bodies are their strongest weapon.

Therefore, this Netherworld War.

The gods planned to project their power immediately after another magical storm swept across the world.

Of course, before that, the coalition forces will first deploy a coalition force.

The first batch of troops deployed numbered three million!
Three million superhumans, and various drones.

Three million extraordinary beings will simultaneously confront three ancient clans.

Once the ancient beings behind these ancient races are drawn out, the projections of the gods will immediately launch the most devastating attack on these three ancient beings.

Of course, starships in outer space will also target ancient life forms immediately.

The starship's cannons will fire directly at the ancient life forms from orbit.

As for how much the final starship's cannons will be weakened by Mana's will during this process, that's not something we need to calculate right now.

In short, the allied forces will now focus all their efforts on dealing with the three ancient life forms' kin.
