Chapter 686: Chapter 356 Giant Army Strikes, Alien Monster_2

However, the Devouring Spine Gu Clan is not easy to mess with. Having dealt with aliens for countless years, they are well-versed in how to handle them.

"Retreat!"

The leading giant bellowed, and the Giant Army leapt skyward without hesitation, unleashing blazing radiance that engulfed the alien horde descending upon the battlefield.

"Boom..."

The ground emitted an unbearable wail, mountains and rivers crumbled entirely, and then melted into glass-like material under the searing light.

Fortunately, the war zone planet is several hundred times larger than ordinary Life Planets; otherwise, it wouldn’t be able to withstand such devastation.

Amid the flurry of flames, alien monsters howled at the sky, their shrill cries chilling to the bone.

"Roar..."

"Hiss..."

A wave of blazing light energy struck them, rendering their high-temperature-resistant exoskeletons glowing red hot, yet it did not affect their combat abilities in the slightest.

"Hiss!!"

Within the alien monsters, a particularly vicious, upright alien let out a bizarre growl, causing the entire alien horde to scatter abruptly.

Having fought the Devouring Spine Gu Clan numerous times, the aliens knew the next wave of attacks would inevitably bring endless frost-based assaults.

Sure enough, after unleashing the blazing light energy, the Giant Army followed it with a torrent of frost strikes.

"Boom..."

Ice bolts rained down from the sky, and amid the chaos, some alien monsters that hadn’t dispersed in time were enveloped by frosty vapors. Their glowing red exoskeleton armor emitted a sharp cracking sound as countless tiny fissures spread rapidly.

"Crack, crack..."

"Crack..."

Instantly, under the clash of heat and cold, the previously impervious exoskeletons of certain alien monsters cracked and splintered.

However, even in such conditions, the monsters’ resilient vitality ensured they maintained some combat capability rather than succumbing to death.

But to the Devouring Spine Gu Clan, aliens without the protection of their exoskeletal armor no longer posed a significant threat to the battle and could be easily exterminated.

Ignoring the armor-stripped aliens, the Giant Army launched pursuits all across the battlefield, hunting down scattered alien monsters.

But one-on-one encounters began to flip the tide of the battle.

Giant after giant found themselves unable to deploy their heating and cooling energy attacks in time, falling prey to the alien monsters naturally born for combat.

Alien monsters viciously bit and tore into their foes, piercing giant bodies with sharp spines and draining their light energy, before brutally dismembering them into shattered limbs resembling broken stone statues littered across the ground.

By the time the Giant Army realized the crisis, many giants had fallen victim, and amidst the chaos, they reconsolidated their ranks, causing the battle to drag into a stalemate.

Yet, neither the Devouring Spine Gu, the alien monsters, nor the Mirror Planet People realized that when the giants perished, traces of light energy origin merged into the Void.

Within the Void, Qin Shou raised the Divine Light Stick in his hand, gathering the absorbed light energy into it.

"Heh heh, it won’t be long before the light energy converter reaches 100%," Qin Shou grinned, quietly praising himself as nothing but a modest genius.

Although these light energies weren’t high quality, their sheer volume was sufficient.

If he could convert a large portion of the Devouring Spine Gu Clan into light energy, achieving a 100% light energy converter would definitely be possible.

Using a 100% light energy converter might enable him to challenge a Divine Realm Expert.

Qin Shou felt a small surge of excitement, inserting the card he had long prepared into the magenta-colored camera at his waist.

Light and shadow coalesced, transforming Qin Shou into a wise elder of the Mirror Planet People. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Taking out a mirror, Qin Shou gazed at his reflection and stroked his chin.

What’s still missing?

Oh, right, bifocals!

Although Mirror Planet People didn’t suffer from nearsightedness or cataracts, who said glasses were only for vision issues?

...

Months later, on the Mirror Planet.

Inside the largest Crystal Fortress, a Mirror Planet person shrouded in silvery light stared at the virtual images before him, a deep worry etched into his expression.

"Sigh, even if we team up with the alien army, the battle zone outposts are falling one after another. At this rate, Lord Divine Mirror will surely take notice."

He rubbed his temples, his tone revealing only dread of Lord Divine Mirror, not a hint of concern for the outposts falling in battle.

The fall of outposts meant resource losses, but as long as Lord Divine Mirror existed, the battles wouldn’t spill over to the Mirror Planet.

At most, the losses were restricted to resources—no threats to the lives of those in higher ranks.

The lives of lower-level soldiers were irrelevant to him; as long as Mirror Planet remained stable, new warriors would emerge continuously.

In comparison, Lord Divine Mirror’s attitude was the true critical concern.

If Lord Divine Mirror questioned his capabilities, his ’one-person-beneath, ten-thousand-above’ status would come to an abrupt end.

After all, he wasn’t the only one at the Half-God High Rank.

Thinking of this, his mood grew increasingly agitated.

"Beep beep..."

At that moment, a notification arrived on the virtual interface.

"Lord Solo, the operation to destroy the Plasma Spark Tower has failed again."

Solo’s face darkened, "Damn it, this time we exercised far more caution than last time—how could we still fail...?"

"Lord Solo, although the operation to destroy the Plasma Spark Tower failed, we did make another discovery!"

"Discovery?"

"Indeed, Lord Solo. After failing the operation and being driven by the Devouring Spine Gu into the unknown space beneath the tower, we inadvertently discovered a human from an alien star system involved in constructing the Plasma Spark Tower."

"A human involved in constructing the Plasma Spark Tower..."

Excitement flickered across Solo’s brows, "Is this person secured?"

"They’re on their way..."

Suddenly, the virtual images flickered violently, the signals becoming extremely unstable.

"Lord Solo, they... they’re chasing after us! It’s the Giant Army of the Devouring Spine Gu Clan..."

The screen abruptly blacked out, Solo’s expression shifted profoundly. Without hesitation, he summoned experts to prepare for an encounter.

The Plasma Spark Tower, created by a female member of the Devouring Spine Gu Clan, had long ceased to be a secret.

But now, he had found what?

A human from an alien star system participated in constructing it—there had to be something peculiar to this!

As long as he captured this human, exploiting the inherently cowardly and self-preserving nature of humanity, uncovering the secret behind the tower wouldn’t be difficult.

Better yet, he could potentially extract the method for its construction!

Thinking of this, Solo’s heart raced with exhilaration.

Once he obtained the Plasma Spark Tower’s creation method, the interstellar battlefield would surely be turned on its head.

His position—secured!

...

In the vast universe, a Cosmic Warship streaked with silver light zipped through the Void, barreling toward Mirror Planet.

Behind the ship, countless specks of light rapidly overtook the stars, streaking across the cosmos and shooting forward like beams of intense brilliance.

"Zzz..."

A dense array of light beams saturated the celestial domain. Despite the warship’s nimble maneuvers, evading all incoming attacks proved impossible.

Several beams brushed against the craft, causing violent tremors. After shaking, the ship steadied and continued its course.

"Damn it, they’re catching up!"

"Deploy the Mirror Space to assist the warship’s propulsion system!"

"Understood..."

Layer upon layer of Mirror Space enveloped the ship, blurring its presence and sharply accelerating its velocity.

In the backdrop of the starry expanse, the Giant Army relentlessly absorbed light energy from the cosmos, the energy lamps on their chests radiating ever brighter, enabling even more speed.

"Catch up to them! We can’t let them obtain that!"

"Sir, what exactly *is* it?"

"How the hell should I know? It’s Lord Leng’s order—just carry it out!"

"Understood..."

Again, a wave of light beams saturated the stars, shattering the Mirror Space layers surrounding the ship.

"Split up! Ensure the human is brought back to Mirror Planet!"

"Understood!"

The warship abruptly slowed, seemingly exhausted of energy.

Several small warplanes stealthily infiltrated the starry domain.

"Quick, we’ve caught up."

The Giant Army transformed into streaks of light, surrounding the warship and unleashing a volley of beams that obliterated it completely.

"Not good—there’s nobody inside! They’ve escaped."

"Keep going, split up and pursue! We can’t let them reach Mirror Planet."

"Understood..."

...

Elsewhere, Solo couldn’t wait for the others’ sluggish movements and raced ahead of Mirror Planet toward the location where the signal last faltered.

Navigating through the starry void, it didn’t take Solo long to spot massive bone claws imbued with thunderous light energy tearing through the stars, enveloping a warplane in their grasp.

"A Half-God High Rank Perfect Spine-eating Gu, Leng Wanbai from the alien star system!" Solo halted immediately, his expression grave.

This figure had personally stepped in—it seemed that human was indeed critical.

Under the enormous claws, Leng Wanbai effortlessly crushed the warplane, her brows furrowing.

"It’s not this one either..."

She promptly turned her cold gaze toward Solo’s direction, before preparing to leave indifferently.

Seeing this, Solo extended his hand, instantly silencing the vibrant starry sky, trapping Leng Wanbai within the Mirror Space.

As long as Leng Wanbai was delayed, there was still a chance!
