Chapter 3299: InterceptionEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the void of the starry cosmos, a dark golden battleship sped through space.
The main control room was silent.
Two minutes ago, they had completely lost communication with the planetary headquarters.
"Report, Consul. The Seven Realms Martial Capital alliance has sent a message. They detected the Insect Planet departing, and all races are keeping their distance to observe the planet’s latest status."
Xius sat on the tall golden throne, veins bulging on his forehead as he suppressed his wrath.
"Seed of Ouroboros!"
He had never imagined that one day he would be toyed with by such a tiny worm.
"Pursue."
Xius said coldly, "If you can’t catch it, then you will perish along with it."
Immediately, the air in the control room seemed to solidify.
The Consul had never seen a God Clan member so enraged. Steadying his mind, he said, "Sir, please calm yourself. We have tracked the Insect Planet’s entire trajectory and are already pursuing it. We are rapidly closing the distance."
"Furthermore, all races of the Seven Realms Martial Capital have already set up multiple interception networks along the Insect Planet’s escape route."
"Please believe that Fang Heng will not escape!"
...
Meanwhile, the Insect Planet sped through the galaxy, though its flight was noticeably slower than before.
Fang Heng stood on the planet’s surface, fine beads of sweat still on his forehead.
In retrospect, the underground structures built by the God Clan were designed to suppress the psychic force of the Spirit Mother Sphere.
Once outside the underground space, he needed to continuously expend mental strength to control the Spirit Mother Sphere and maintain its stability.
Fang Heng’s mental strength was tremendous. Under normal circumstances, he could manage this consumption, but now he also had to control the Insect Planet’s movement.
It was exhausting.
Not to mention the occasional spawn fleets appearing along the planet’s path.
"Fang Heng, there’s something ahead."
Zane noticed the anomaly and pointed toward the void ahead.
Looking up, the galaxy was dotted with rippling light spots. One by one, spawn warships gradually emerged from the points of light.
In a short moment, over three hundred spawn warships fanned out, completely blocking the Insect Planet’s path.
All ship cannons aimed directly at the Insect Planet.
"Tch, persistent souls."
Fang Heng sneered, clasped his hands in front of him again, and his God’s Eye in his right eye rotated rapidly.
"Fire!"
The chief commander of the spawn fleet issued the order.
In an instant, hundreds of thick energy beams tore through the void, striking the Insect Planet.
Fang Heng’s mental strength exploded. The tentacles on the planet’s surface writhed wildly, quickly condensing a massive mutant worm spore creature barrier ahead of the planet.
"Boom!"
Under the continuous impact of the energy beams, the barrier shattered, and the dense red mutant worm spores spread toward the spawn fleet.
"No! Parasite spores! Intercept them!"
The chief commander panicked and immediately ordered the ships to use distributed attacks to try to destroy the red spores.
"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!"
Tens of thousands of beam weapons activated simultaneously, sweeping across the parasite spores in the galaxy.
But they could not stop them.
The spores were far too numerous, and among them were the Seed of Ouroboros’ insect attendants.
The individual power of the insect attendants easily blocked the short-frequency beams, carrying vast amounts of spores toward the fleet.
"Boom! Boom boom!!!"
The defensive barriers of the ships were quickly shattered by the insect attendants, and the parasite spores surged into the ships.
What followed was gruesome parasitism.
One by one, the ships were overtaken in minutes, sprouting tentacles from within, turning them into breeding grounds for the spores.
"Hey, Fang Heng, can we go any faster?"
Zane looked at Fang Heng worriedly and frowned. "The believers contacted me. The Seven Realms Martial Capital has issued a pursuit order. All races along our path will attempt interception."
"The good news is, apart from the spawns, other races fear the Insect Planet’s power, so they are merely following from a distance without initiating real attacks."
"But the bad news is, the God Clan has already started pursuing us."
"Mm."
Fang Heng nodded, his expression growing serious.
Because he had to deal with occasional spawn interception fleets, the Insect Planet could not move faster, and it was only a matter of time before the God Clan caught up.
Fang Heng recovered some mental strength and said, "There’s even worse news."
"What?"
"They’re already coming."
"Ah!?"
Zane froze for a moment, then quickly turned to look.
In the endless galaxy behind them, a faint dark golden light spot could be seen.
"They’re pursuing so closely... looks like a fight is inevitable."
Fang Heng took a deep breath, paused controlling the Insect Planet, and floated in front of it, staring at the rapidly approaching light spot behind. Battle intent appeared in his eyes. "Zane, stay back. If it comes to a mutual defeat, you take me and retreat."
No, was he really going all out?
Fighting the God Clan?
Zane wanted to suggest that they simply throw the Spirit Mother Sphere aside and let them break space to escape.
But Fang Heng showed no intention of retreating.
Crazy.
Zane swallowed his words and nodded. "Alright, Fang Heng, brother, you be careful. We don’t need to die fighting the God Clan."
He transformed into a shadow and quickly moved outside the Insect Planet to avoid the battle.
"Whoosh!!!"
In the distance, a dark golden ship rapidly approached the Insect Planet.
The ship suddenly slowed, and another dark golden figure emerged from it.
A towering human-shaped figure hovered over a thousand meters from the Insect Planet.
The God Clan!
Xius!
Suppressed by the coercion of the God Clan, all the planet’s tentacles grew restless.
The insect attendants retreated and gathered on the Insect Planet behind Fang Heng.
"Buzz, buzz buzz buzz..."
Instantly, the region five kilometers around the Insect Planet became densely filled with light spots.
As Xius of the God Clan arrived on the battlefield, the reinforcement fleets of various races from the Seven Realms Martial Capital, which had been following the Insect Planet, also arrived.
Hundreds of thousands of ships of various sizes now surrounded the Insect Planet, Fang Heng, and Xius in the center.
All ships locked their attention on Fang Heng and Xius, levitating in the galaxy.
The Seed of Ouroboros returned with a vengeance!
For the first time, they saw someone in the universe daring to confront the God Clan head-on.
