Chapter 69 The Fallen Angels

Individuals raised in this way may grow rapidly, but they ultimately lack sufficient experience.

Their short lifespans only allowed them to quickly become familiar with the universe they depended on for survival, but they could not provide them with enough experience to effectively deal with all kinds of crises.

Therefore, someone must lead them.

Among the trapped angels, the oldest is Lingxi, an older generation angel who has survived from Keisha's righteous order. She is senior enough to lead these younger angels.

Faced with these fearful and anxious newborn angels, Angel Lingxi was also utterly helpless. She could only offer some words of comfort:

"Don't worry, the distress signal has been transmitted, and Planet Melo has definitely received our signal."

"I believe reinforcements will arrive soon."

"But..." an angel questioned.

"Don't those Zerg even block warp signals?"

"If the signal was indeed transmitted, given the speed of the Skyblade fleet, it should have already arrived in our star system and begun engaging the insect swarm in space."

"If that were the case, the Angelic Legion's ground forces should have intervened on the planet's surface by now... Why haven't we received any related responses?"

"..."

Originally intending to offer some comfort to her compatriots and stabilize morale, Angel Lingxi was suddenly speechless.

Like her, these new generation angels have all undergone the latest genetic modification, which greatly affects their brain intelligence, making them all exceptionally intelligent.

Every angel of today, if placed in the past, would be a transcendent being comparable to a supreme scholar of wisdom like Death, Karl.

However, the level of intelligence is sometimes not a key factor in measuring the level of a civilization, especially for an interstellar civilization with a complex social system.

For example, right now, it seems that being too smart isn't always a good thing...

But there's nothing we can do about it.

Now, no matter how hard they try, they cannot escape this corrupted Zerg planet on their own.

At this moment, an officer from the Yi people's civilization walked over and waved to the angels, saying:

"Please rest assured, my esteemed angels, this star field is an important strategic area for our Yiren civilization."

"In nearby star systems, our Yi civilization has deployed many large-scale fleets."

"I believe they are already aware of our situation here and will be coming to our aid soon..."

"Everything will be alright once our fleet arrives."

"Then why haven't they arrived yet?" one of the angels asked, somewhat impatiently.

"This...it's probably because there are too many Zerg invading from nearby star systems, and they've run into trouble too." The officer from the Yiren civilization twitched at the corner of his mouth and gave an awkward smile.

"Heh, a bunch of trash. If it were our Angelic Civilization's Skyblade fleet, even countless insects would have been wiped out by now..." The angel sneered, his tone contemptuous.

"The existence of too many resource-wasting fleets like these within the 'Alliance of the Gods' is what led to the war escalating to this point."

"When dealing with those snakes and rats within the 'Starry Sea Community' who refuse to submit to the teachings of 'justice,' they usually just go through the motions without putting in any effort. Now, they're fighting a bunch of bugs and they're still doing this badly..."

"A useless civilization that can't even defend its own colony is a disgrace to the 'Alliance of the Gods'!"

"With a fleet like this joining, the massive Combined Fleet has long been a joke."

"If you ask me, we should hold a meeting, pass a resolution, and hand over all the resources of the 'Celestial Alliance' to our angelic civilization for its control!"

"This way, there's no need for the weak combined fleet; our Angelic Blade fleet will be enough to protect every alliance member!"

"Hmph, in that case, the 'Alliance of the Gods' might as well be renamed the 'Alliance of Angels'. What else do we need to do..." The officer from the Yiren civilization said angrily upon hearing this.

"What's wrong with that?" the angel said disdainfully. "You used to be our angels' subjects. Going back to the way things were wouldn't be bad for you."

"We angels are clearly better at fighting. If we were to take charge of the overall situation, it would greatly enhance the combat capabilities of the entire 'Celestial Alliance,' at least preventing the current predicament..."

"Bullshit!" The officer from the Yiren civilization was utterly enraged; he hadn't expected these angelic allies to utter such words.

"Angel, don't forget, this land you stand on now belongs to the Yi people's civilization!"

A large group of soldiers from the Yiren civilization glared unfriendly at the angel. Seeing this, Angel Lingxi immediately rebuked her fellow countrymen:

"Enough, all of you, shut up!"

"These are times of crisis; any statements detrimental to the situation are strictly prohibited!"

"Otherwise, I will have the right to punish you according to the laws of the angels."

The angel immediately shut his mouth after being reprimanded by Lingxi, but his expression remained arrogant, as if he did not regard the nearby Yiren civilization as an ally at all.

Lingxi was also quite troubled. The memories of these new generation angels that were transmitted to their brains all contained historical records about the era of "justice and order".

This measure was taken to encourage these new generation angels to pledge allegiance to the angelic civilization behind them.

The latest novel is first published here!

Many newborn angels who received this part of the historical record yearned for that era that was not so far away.

Because that era perfectly aligned with the "justice" currently promoted within the Angel Civilization, they yearned for that kind of hegemonic "cosmic justice" that was spoken of solely by the Angel Civilization.

Although the egalitarianism promoted within the current angelic civilization strictly prohibits such ideas, there are always a few angels who, in pursuit of justice, like to go to some uncontrollable extremes.

Just as Lingxi was feeling troubled by this, the entire underground city suddenly began to shake violently.

Rumble!!

The massive tremor seemed to affect the gravity of the entire planet, causing both angels and people from the Yiren civilization to lose their footing and be thrown to the ground.

"What happened?" Lingxi asked in shock.

"This earthquake seems to have originated from the surface..."

"Are reinforcements arriving and attacking the Zerg on the surface?"

"Uncertain, we'll have to wait and see..."

"Great! Look! The Zerg units that were attacking the entrance to the underground city have suddenly withdrawn. There must be some unusual activity on the surface!"

"Let's seize this opportunity to launch a counterattack!"

"Wait a minute, don't act rashly..."

The limited communication channels in the underground city were filled with a cacophony of noise, making it incredibly frustrating.

"Send a reconnaissance team to the surface to investigate the situation," Lingxi suggested to the officer from the Yiren Civilization.

"Alright, but your angels will also have to send someone to accompany you." The officer from the Yiren civilization looked sharply at the arrogant angel from before.

"I'll lead the team myself!" Lingxi understood what the other party meant, but at this moment, she didn't want to argue about such things, so she gritted her teeth and said:

"I will bring a hundred angels, and you send out a force of a thousand men. Together we will go to the surface and investigate the situation."
