Chapter 349 Beastly Nature and Steel (4K)

Although it is called participating in the war, the Tomorrow Alliance can actually only send out a very small number of combat forces at present.

At most, there are three super mobile suits and the Iron Whale equipped with a gravitational wave controller.

Ultimately, it's because the Tomorrow Alliance has not yet established a complete space combat system.

Especially the space fleet, there's not a single one in sight right now.

At the same time, the entire K8 planetary cluster has entered a state of highest alert.

More than a thousand kilometers away, a silent, moving "nebula" is spreading in a way that defies physical intuition.

It was not gas and dust, but a destructive torrent composed of millions of star serpents.

Rather than a fleet, they were more like a living, hungry catastrophe sweeping across the edge of the galaxy.

As exotic beasts, the Star Pythons possess extraordinary digestive abilities, capable of devouring and absorbing almost anything.

Spaceships, space stations, asteroid belts, planets—wherever they go, they leave almost nothing behind.

Looking out, this swarm of star serpents resembles a slowly moving, all-consuming cosmic undercurrent.

Wherever they passed, the starlight in the background was not blocked, but completely swallowed up by their jet-black scales that absorbed all light, forming an ever-expanding, irregular void and nothingness in the sea of ​​stars.

The space fleet immediately formed a tight formation to protect the planetary group and began long-range bombardment.

With a command from the K8 Planetary Cluster Fleet Commander, the weapons restrictions of more than two hundred space fleets were simultaneously lifted.

The first thing to tear through space was light—not the gentle starlight of nature, but a salvo from a main warship's guns, powerful enough to vaporize asteroids.

Two hundred towering space flagships, as imposing as moving mountains, fired simultaneously, their bows brimming with destructive energy resembling the cores of prematurely born supernovae.

Hundreds of thick, suffocating torrents of energy, like thunderbolts hurled by Titans in mythology, swept across a vast distance with absolute, pure power, distorting and wailing the very space that passed through them.

Following closely behind was a salvo from the space battleships. These firepowers, though perhaps not as devastating as those of the flagship, were more substantial and solid, like a heavy hammer striking an anvil, focused on ultimate penetration and pulverization.

At the same time, even more complex and deadly fireworks erupted from the fleet formation.

The space cruiser, with its balanced firepower, wove together a dense network of crossfire, precisely filling the gaps in the giant cannon's bombardment.

The space destroyers transform into deadly hounds roaming the battlefield. They are incredibly fast, maneuvering wildly around the perimeter of the fleet, using a barrage of point defense artillery fire and precise medium-range torpedo salvos to create a dynamic, constantly roaring defensive perimeter.

This was merely the fleet's first breath.

Immediately afterwards, the starport gates of each space flagship burst open.

Countless space fighters swarmed out like bees in an instant, their sheer number creating a nebula of flowing metal and energy that seemed to drape the fleet in a layer of fluidity.

Countless dazzling fireworks burst forth in the calm starry sky.

Under the intense bombardment, the casualties of the once mighty Star Serpent swarm instantly reached one-third.

The surviving star pythons were enraged and accelerated their advance.

In the space fleet's command center, the fleet commander slammed his fist on the table in front of him.

This response was far too hasty; for the entire K8 planetary cluster, a distance of just over a thousand kilometers was simply insufficient.

The most troublesome thing about the Star Python race is not its huge size, but its jet-black scales that can detect detection.

This makes it very difficult for ordinary alien civilizations at the edge of the galaxy to track their existence, let alone intercept them in advance.

The Commander-in-Chief once again issued orders to allocate two-thirds of the space fleet to form a defensive line between the K8 planetary clusters to intercept the Star Serpents.

The remaining third of the space fleet is responsible for protecting the entire K8 planetary cluster, preventing and intercepting any Star Serpent from invading a planet—although this seems like a waste of resources, it is unavoidable, as any Star Serpent entering the planetary cluster would undoubtedly be a catastrophe.

Meanwhile, the civilizations of the K8 planetary cluster also activated the weapons installed on their respective home planets.

Countless interstellar missiles were launched into the sky in a mighty procession, space cannons fired one after another, and energy beams bombarded the area relentlessly.

Those outrageously extravagant planetary weapons were thus activated.

The first to unleash its power was the Earth Core Pulse Cannon. As it was activated, the planet's surface trembled violently, and the entire crustal structure groaned under unimaginable internal pressure.

The next second, the earth's crust suddenly arched upwards and then shattered completely.

It wasn't an explosion, but a spray.

A beam of incandescent plasma, hundreds of kilometers in diameter, mixed with vaporized mantle material, erupted at an almost vertical angle like a raging fire imprisoned for billions of years, instantly piercing the atmosphere and shooting into space.

Faced with this energy impact containing the pressure of the entire planet's interior, the bodies of tens of thousands of star serpents were instantly vaporized and pierced like paper. The beam of light continued its momentum, directly penetrating the entire star serpent swarm.

Immediately following was a salvo from the Gravity Star Guns.

Giant arrays at the poles of several planets began to operate. Countless gravitational field generators simultaneously overloaded themselves, using the entire mass of the planets as a base and lens to forcibly distort the spacetime structure around the planets.

This planetary weapon fires silently, yet with deadly precision.

In the star field that the array was pointing to, space itself underwent a fatal collapse.

That wasn't an explosion, it was an implosion.

The bodies of tens of thousands of star pythons were squeezed into balls of extremely dense matter, like crumpled paper.

Finally, the polar-axis railgun arrived.

As these planetary weapons were activated, the planets' rotations seemed to pause slightly, their accumulated rotational inertia over billions of years being instantly extracted. The enormous muzzles at both ends of the planets' rotational axes unleashed lightning that eclipsed even the stars.

Within the cannon's muzzle, several pure metal projectiles, each with the mass of an asteroid, were poised to be launched, accelerated by the immense force of the planet's rotation, and propelled at terrifying relative speeds.

This is the ultimate penetration and shattering.

Wherever the pure metal projectiles passed, the star python swarm was blasted into vacuum tunnels.

The edges of the passage were littered with the blood and flesh remains of countless star pythons.

Everyone in Tomorrow Alliance was stunned.

"Alliance Leader, I think they might not need our help," Fang Yong murmured.

Li Ye also sighed sadly.

"I think so too."

The power of these planetary weapons far exceeded his expectations, even surpassing the "planetary cannons" of Aetheria.

"I don't know why, but I feel like the technology of our solar system civilization is getting more and more backward," Zhou Xing couldn't help but say. "It's true what they say, comparison is the thief of joy."

"Don't worry, we'll reach that level someday," Li Ye replied.

Despite enduring unprecedented and intense bombardment, the Star Serpent Swarm still retains half its original size. With its total size of millions, it remains a significant threat to the K8 planetary cluster.

Soon, this swarm of millions of star serpents engaged the space fleet in battle. The once tranquil canvas of the starry sky was utterly shattered.

One side represents the ultimate expression of order and firepower, while the other represents the chaos and violence of biological evolution at its peak.

A star serpent nearly a hundred kilometers long slammed through the side of a battleship and began its deadly constriction. The immense force caused the ship's structure to emit a sickening metallic groan before being crushed and twisted into a heap of scrap metal.

The other star serpent opened its abyss-like jaws and bit down hard on the engine of a cruiser, causing it to catch fire and explode.

Countless spaceships maneuvered to evade capture, locking onto nearby Star Serpents and opening fire.

The forces of Tomorrow Alliance also joined the battle.

The Iron Whale was the first to launch the attack.

With the aid of gravity, this mobile city transformed into an unstoppable super cannonball, crashing head-on into the menacing star serpents charging towards it.

A massive star serpent was immediately blasted in two, but its body did not slow the Iron Whale down in the slightest. It continued its momentum, smashing through the bodies of several other star serpents along the way.

The Ember Angel followed closely behind and began dealing with the nearby Star Serpent swarm.

The battle scene was actually a bit awkward, because the super mobile suits were at most a hundred meters in size, while the Star Serpent cubs were born hundreds of meters long.

Therefore, the pilot, Changfeng, prioritized attacking the Star Serpents' heads and throats.

The battle against the Angels was much easier for them.

With Novi's help, pilot Tang Fang successfully locked onto the hundreds of star pythons in the vicinity.

As he pulled the trigger, the Archangel unleashed its full power.

At the same time, the sniper-type super mobile suit "Source Angel" also launched a long-range sniping attack.

The battle reached its peak in an instant.

Then, an unexpected situation arose.

Tens of thousands of star serpents directly crossed the defense line constructed by more than a hundred space fleets and headed straight for the K8 planetary cluster.

Meanwhile, the one-third of the space fleet that had been deployed for defense immediately launched an attack.

However, the vast majority of these star pythons were star python cubs.

They displayed speeds far exceeding those of adults, dodging the fleet's bombardment one after another, and thus broke through the atmosphere and plunged onto the planet's surface.

After landing, the star python cubs began to devour their food frantically.

The invaded alien civilization urgently mobilized its land and air forces to launch a campaign to encircle and annihilate it.

A wave of unrest, a wave of up again.

The distant stars began to distort, and the outline of an unprecedentedly huge shadow emerged.

As its outline gradually became clearer, people were able to see its true form.

It was a colossal star serpent, its size beyond the limits of visual comprehension, its trunk diameter large enough to wrap around an entire planet.

“My God,” a fleet officer murmured.

The fleet commander-in-chief made a decisive decision and ordered the fleet to concentrate its firepower to bombard the colossal star serpent.

However, this colossal star python possessed an incredibly powerful physique, and even planetary weapons could only destroy some of its scales and flesh.

Just as everyone was at a loss, they suddenly noticed a point of light rushing toward the colossal star python.

Upon closer inspection, it was clearly the Iron Whale.

The mobile city, like a cannonball, plunged headlong into the gaping maw of the colossal star python.

Looking at the two, the difference is like that between a pebble and a pond.

But this "small pebble" showed unprecedented destructive power.

Wherever the Iron Whale passed, the internal organs of the colossal Star Serpent began to twist and collapse wildly under the influence of gravity, causing unimaginable destruction.

When it emerged from the body, the colossal star python was on its last legs.

"You can fight like this?" Yang Zheng exclaimed in surprise. "You're really something, Lao Fang!"

Not only the members of the Tomorrow Alliance, but all the civilizations in the K8 planetary cluster were shocked.

Having roughly guessed everyone's reaction, Fang Yong, in the Iron Whale's cockpit, couldn't help but shake his head and hum softly.

After an unknown amount of time, the great battle finally came to an end.

The wreckage of the Star Serpents floats in the cold space, intertwined with the broken steel tombs of the K8 planetary fleet.

The massive hulls of space flagships and battleships are like torn metal cans, with their complex internal structures, compartments, and pipes exposed. Occasionally, brief arcs of electricity flicker between the broken sections, like dying nerve impulses.

The wreckage of space cruisers and space destroyers was scattered everywhere, with twisted keels, broken armor plates, and shattered engine modules forming a vast and dangerous cloud of debris that slowly and silently rotated.

Countless fragments of space fighters, like fine metallic dust, filled the entire airspace, reflecting the faint light of distant stars, like an eternal, sorrowful spectacle of stardust.

In the heart of the most brutal battlefield, the biological tissues of the Star Serpent and the alloy of the ship miraculously fused together, and after cooling, formed an unprecedented and grotesque alloy fossil, recording the most extreme and destructive contact between the two.

After surviving the ordeal, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Reggie re-established contact with Rino.

"Your fighting was truly valiant," Li Ye said sincerely.

“After all, we were protecting our home,” Reggie replied. “It’s unbelievable that we actually defeated the Star Serpents. In fact, they are among the most troublesome alien species on the edge of the galaxy. You don’t need to be too worried; not all alien creatures are as powerful and difficult to deal with as the Star Serpents.”

Li Ye nodded slowly.

If all the alien beasts in the universe were at least at the level of the Star Python, then the Tomorrow Alliance would no longer embark on space voyages and would instead stay obediently in the solar system.

After this fierce battle, the K8 planetary cluster did not rush to withdraw, but instead began to clean up the battlefield on the spot.

Not only that, they also had to collect the remains of the Star Serpents.

As exotic beasts, the Star Pythons are not only powerful and ferocious, but their internal organs, flesh, skin, and bones also possess extraordinary value.

Especially the giant star python that was killed.

Under the command of higher command, the engineering vessels began the battlefield cleanup work in an orderly manner.

Looking at the countless remains of the Star Pythons before him, Li Ye couldn't help but sigh with melancholy.

"Alas, it's a pity they aren't monsters or mutated creatures."
