Honkai Impact: Star Railway: I'm really not a Star God!

"Leave this to me, don't let you get all the benefits."

"What other bargains could there be? I'll just enjoy the memory later. Good luck, he's just a cripple, you can handle him."

His purple pupils instantly turned red, and Gluttony quipped.

"What? One minute? Are you looking down on me? Three minutes... that's too short."

A deafening sonic boom rang out, and the figure hovering in mid-air by the windowsill vanished.

At the same time, a loud broadcast sounded from the dome.

"Attention all residents! Attention all residents! Please gather in the designated area in front of the government building according to the steps in the safety manual. Ms. Black Tower is with you at all times. The starship is about to arrive. Please evacuate in an orderly manner!"

After relaying the message, Black Tower's consciousness quickly returned to the puppet still inside the warship, and she said in a deep voice.

"All personnel, immediately prepare warp drive, activate all combat systems, and fully activate mind protection devices. This will be a...war."

......

The tentacle, which was still preparing to absorb the energy of Star Brad, inexplicably heard a snap of its fingers, and its movements were suddenly slowed down countless times. Only its consciousness could still function normally.

Slightly taken aback, He controlled His tentacles to dance incessantly, quickly breaking free from their restraints.

"Damn it... I was almost there... If only I had a few more Amber Ages... But today... you... will die!"

It can be said to be the most powerful entity in the reproductive destiny outside of the Insect King itself. It is an avatar of the Insect King. Because the backlash from the destiny is too fierce, the Insect King, whose power is insufficient, often falls into a long period of coma. In order to strengthen the defense, each time it awakens, it bestows a part of the reproductive destiny power to this tentacle in order to enhance the defense of the insect nest and improve the efficiency of energy transportation.

After swallowing the two Commander-level beings, a massive amount of energy was fed back into the insect eggs on the throne. Terrifying energy accumulated over countless epochs was contained within them, and an indescribable, terrifying will was awakening.

Even a single thought or glance from this will caused the earth to distort, and the energy shield of the dome erupted with a dazzling flash, solely to block this gaze.

Encouraged, the endless swarm of insects hissed and charged toward the tentacles, allowing them to devour them.

Just as the terrifying energy was about to reach its limit, the insect egg on the throne shuddered. In an instant, its energy supply was cut off!?

A terrifying will descended, and the being inside the insect egg struggled to pierce its own eggshell, only to see a face that it loathed.

"That place isn't really suitable. Why don't you go and absorb some energy from these planets nearby?"

Chapter 131 What tower? First, remember my name is Black Tower!

Before the creature inside the egg could even unleash its mental storm, the tentacles' attack arrived instantly, sending the creature flying through the air with a single blow.

The tentacles, still absorbing energy from Star Brad, detached from the planet. A twisted monster, indescribable in words, continuously swung its tentacles in the void, each strike precisely hitting Ling Kong and simultaneously engulfing the insect eggs while continuously transporting energy into them.

He glared angrily at Ling Kong.

The insect nest... It's called an insect nest, but it's actually the inside of my clone's body. However, the insect eggs that I just placed in the core of my body were stolen by this person!?

This was an immense disgrace to the Star God.

Previously, she was ganged up on by the Star Gods and forced to stop reproducing in exchange for the continuation of her life. Those were Star God-level beings... and there were multiple Star Gods who were even more powerful than herself.

But the person in front of him... He was certain that he was not a star god.

After all, if a new star god were to appear in the universe, it would be impossible for Him not to sense it.

If we couldn't sense it, this universe would have long since become a chaotic battleground of star gods.

"You... state your name... My recipe needs a new, irreplaceable dish... I will control my offspring to devour your star system... turning all life there into energy for my reproduction..."

"My name... it's not that important whether you know it or not, but I'm quite curious about what you taste like. There's a delicacy in my hometown called fried locusts, which I've never tried before. Although you are destined for reproduction, these endless swarms of insects need energy. You're even more excessive than a glutton. I feel like you completely deserve to die."

Ling Kong's light and airy tone seemed to be testing the Insect King's patience. He inevitably erupted, and large-scale cracks appeared on the shells of the insect eggs, and the speed at which they broke open was getting faster and faster. A terrifying will swept across the entire galaxy, and more and more swarms of insects appeared in the void, constantly providing energy for the Insect King's resurgence.

The terrifying pressure grew stronger, and it seemed as if something that could devour everything was being conceived in the void. Ling Kong reached out and sensed it; a very peculiar frequency was pulsating, and something extremely oppressive was descending with the resurrection of the Insect Emperor.

However, Ling Kong did not stop it, but occasionally dodged the tentacles' attacks, quietly waiting for the insect king to revive.

He was familiar with this process. Every dish required a little waiting time. After all, you can't rush things. How can you eat something that hasn't even emerged from its cocoon yet?

He doesn't want to eat fried silkworm pupae.

The tentacles, which were half the size of a planet, did not behave as cumbersome as their size suggested. On the contrary, each strike of the tentacles was incredibly fast, and in just one minute, they chased after several planets and smashed them in mid-air.

And during this time, it also continuously used the suction cups on its tentacles to absorb energy from the other planets.

Compared to the tentacles, Ling Kong wasn't even a cell, yet the overwhelming attacks couldn't touch him at all.

Aside from the initial strike, every time he felt himself being struck in mid-air, he would see that mocking smile, which made the tentacles appear even more ferocious.

"If you don't hurry up... I might have to help you break free from your cocoon."

Suddenly propelled into the air, its two tentacles broke through the egg, exposing more and more of its body.

Taizyuros roared angrily.

"You! The day I fully recover will be your death day!"

In His eyes, Ling Kong was just an exceptionally agile flea, but in the face of endless locusts... no matter how much the flea hopped around, all that awaited it was the fate of being devoured.

If you have the ability to kill Him in mid-air, why not attack Him when He is at his weakest?

Once you think about it this way, the answer becomes obvious.

Ling Kong wanted to buy time so that the other Star Gods could come and kill him.

His idea... how could it possibly come true... He had sensed it all; the guy who was about to be destroyed was still a long way off, and it would take at least ten minutes for him to arrive.

The hunters are still hunting down the bountiful... the guardians are still circling the gluttonous... even if the other star gods want to surround and kill him, he can simply run away. Without the hunters' pursuit, after so many years of development, he has long since figured out a new way to escape.

The key to concealing one's divinity to the lowest level for a short period of time lies in the Brad alien. All it takes is a vessel... He can disguise himself as a mortal like Aha, and even the other star gods cannot detect his existence.

"Hurry up, I'm getting impatient."

"You! Stop your arrogance!"

"Are you all talk and no action? You call yourself the God of Reproduction? I'm ashamed of you. Why don't you give up your Godhood sometime and find a new destiny to devour you?"

Constantly provoking the Insect King, the enraged tentacles could only attack indiscriminately.

Suddenly, the tentacles stopped attacking, the swarm of insects across the entire starry sky fell silent, and one by one they began to explode and die, as massive reproductive energy surged into the insect eggs.

At this moment, the insect egg, which was as tall as a person, could finally be seen clearly. The entire humanoid body kept changing, as if it was taking stock of the countless humanoid life forms it had eaten in its memory.

Ultimately, the face's appearance was fixed at a resemblance of 80% to Ling Kong, and the two antennae on the top of the head transformed into ahoge-like structures. Every inch of Taizyuros's body was perfect, and every muscle contained enough energy to annihilate a planet.

Under the cover of its tentacles, Taizyuros slowly crawled out of its egg and ate the shell. Its energy surged once again. It looked coldly at Ling Kong, as if it were looking at something already dead.

“This is your own fault... Remember my name... Taizyuros.”

"What tower?! Remember my name is Black Tower!"

A beam of destructive light arrived instantly, its terrifying power piercing through the asteroid-thick tentacles.

With the massive spatial distortion, tens of thousands of starships appeared around Blade, led by a planetary behemoth, from which the destructive beam had just been fired from its main cannon.

Through the window, you can also see the black tower puppet with an angry expression in the command room.

"Ling Kong! What are you standing there for! Run! This is unmanned! Who's going to fight this thing?!"

Through a special device, the Black Tower can directly conduct wide-area radio wave communication; otherwise, with such a great distance, who could hear it? Sound doesn't travel in a vacuum!

Chapter 132 How can one be enough?

A large group of people had originally followed Black Tower, but just as they were about to arrive, Black Tower sensed something was amiss. Everyone on the ship could clearly feel that terrifying will.

With this small fleet, what are they going to do fighting the Star God?

Not even enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of a fully-formed insect king.

So the Black Tower made a great decision. Since its puppets could be mass-produced and its starships could be controlled by AI, it gave these fanatical researchers a one-minute pre-battle pep talk, and then they all went home.

All the starships were requisitioned.

They can leave as much as they can. With so many starships, there's no need to worry about the residents of Brad not evacuating quickly enough. In any case, the total number of people is less than 500,000.

As for what to do with all those starships, let the AI ​​send them to self-destruct.

She didn't believe that the Propagation Star God, who was treated like a rat in the street by the other Star Gods, could possibly run up to the Venerable Scholar and kill her.

After all, he's a man who's seen the world, and he's seen the Star God three times. Don't make a fuss over nothing.

Black Tower's sudden shot severed one of the tentacles from the tentacles cluster. The pain caused countless tentacles to sway wildly. Seeing that Ling Kong was still stunned, Black Tower was furious and was about to fire a second shot when countless green, viscous liquids flew toward the fleet at extremely high speed.

Even after the Zerg King has accumulated enough energy for resuscitation, the remaining swarm is still a terrifying number.

The interrupted Insect King adjusted to its new body, and the explosive power existed in its cells in an unscientific way.

"Is this...your reliance? I'm sorry, your human language...I need some time to adjust to using a different vocal organ."

At this moment, the Insect Emperor was undergoing a kind of abnormal development, with its body evolving at an extremely fast pace. Countless gene banks of civilizations that had been destroyed by the insect swarm and a great deal of information were stored in its memory. It absorbed all the information in just a few seconds and changed itself into a set of clothes similar to Ling Kong's.

At this moment, He became more human-like, and the two antennae on His head were perfectly integrated into the two strands of hair.

The Insect King was not in a hurry, nor was Ling Kong.

He spoke slowly and deliberately.

"To me... your civilization accumulated over countless eras is merely sustenance for my reproduction... your spiritual essence is also so easily understood, do you know why I want to become like you?"

Ling Kong pondered for a moment, glanced at the fleet still battling the Zerg swarm, scratched his head, and said in a somewhat uncertain tone.

"Hmm...maybe...you who are prolific want to find a father?"

Taizyuros's expression changed after being choked by Ling Kong's words, and he laughed in anger.

"Fine, ignorance is bliss. From now on... I'll make you my nourishment. This area is now shielded. I'll devour you, complete my final transformation, and finally find a safe zone... until an unstoppable locust plague erupts. Your friend... even the Star God can't protect her..."

With a slight smile, the cluster of tentacles beneath Taizyuros's feet received orders to join the battle against the starship. He himself would then use this time to play a cat-and-mouse game with this ignorant and fearless mortal.

......

"Iris! Iris! Hurry up! If we're too slow, we might not get to share a bedroom!"

In the crowded square, Bertha held Iris's hand tightly.

The cracking of the earth stopped briefly, but they all knew that this was only the beginning. A planet that had lost its energy was bound to collapse sooner or later.

Iris's pupils contracted slightly as she looked at the spot in mid-air, pouting angrily.

That darn Lingkong brother! He didn't even take her to such a big event!

He even said that he would prepare some good food for her when the time came, and told her that she was not like he was back then, and that she didn't need to work so hard.
