Chapter 2633: The Strongest Moat

Looking at the enormous spatial rift, pitch black behind it, everyone furrowed their brows tightly!

Chen Mu was grinding his teeth!

What was Jiangnan up to again? Wasn't he going to play the ancestor card again?

Did Black God conjure up an ancestor legion?

But just then, Jiangnan waved his hand and shouted loudly:

(︶口︶〃)ノ "Come on out! Little Carp!"

Noah's eyes widened!

Holy crap? Was Jiangnan going to...

The next moment, a dazzling golden light lit up in the pitch-black dimensional gap, like a rising sun, making it hard for everyone to keep their eyes open!

All their eyes bugged out!

A white figure shot out of the dimensional gap with a shocking posture!

Performing crazy front flips, the light it emitted illuminated the entire Sea of Star Embers!

Then it struck poses like a white crane spreading its wings and a golden rooster standing on one leg in the starry sky!

"Swoosh~" crystalline droplets splashed across the starry sky!

Only then did everyone see the true form of that white figure!

It had the appearance of a human boy, about eleven or twelve years old, with snow-white skin. Under the skin, faint colorful scales could be seen, shimmering with a peculiar treasure light!

Though it was a boy's build, its muscles were extremely explosive, twisted together like steel tendons!

It wore only a pair of red briefs!

Both arms and legs looked normal enough!

But looking upward, something was off—the little carp had a fish head atop its neck, for crying out loud!

Not only that, the fish head was bald on top, radiating an unparalleled dazzling brilliance!

There was also a big red bump on its forehead, who knows where that came from!

Everyone was dumbfounded!

(°△°|||(°△°|||(°△°|||)...

What the hell was this Mediterranean bald fish-headed muscular boy?!

Everyone's eyes nearly got blinded!

Wu Liang and Xiong Er both had stars in their eyes and said in unison:

(*゚ロ゚(*゚ロ゚) "It's the Triangle Faction!"

Xiao Jiuwo's eyes widened:

(❛ัロ❛ั∗)✧* "One of the 'Xiao' generation? Oh ho ho~"

Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao stared blankly at the fish-headed boy.

=͟͟͞͞(꒪﹏꒪‧̣̥̇(꒪ー꒪‧̣̥̇)...

This... this was that seven-colored big crucian carp transformed? Sure enough, it was abnormal!

Good thing Xiao Nan didn't use the name Yu Erbi, or it would have been even weirder!

The name Little Carp must have taken Xiao Nan a lot of effort to come up with, right?

He really worked hard on it!

But all the Star Devourers changed expression. The strength of this bald fish-headed boy...

Hiss~

Before anyone could react, Little Carp landed in the starry sky, glowing with colorful light, and wildly freestyled!

Charging straight at Jiangnan!

Jiangnan's face turned pale, and he turned and ran, throwing Dali as he went!

レ(ಡꇴಡ;)ヘ "Little Carp, be good~ Follow big brother, okay? Don't swim around randomly, come here~ Little darling~"

He didn't let Little Carp circle the entire human star zone!

Instead, he made him swim a full circle in the inner ring!

Just as everyone was baffled, not knowing what Jiangnan was up to!

The next moment, rumbling sounds like thunder came from the ten-light-year-wide spatial rift!

A silvery-gray Stygian River, fully three light-years wide, burst out of the rift like a floodgate opening!

Following the trail Little Carp had swum, it spread out directly!

Crushing everything in its path, Stygian energy radiated wildly, and the Stygian force field expanded crazily!

At this moment, no one could stay calm!

Even Noah and the others nearly spat out blood!

Jiangnan only said he'd bring the Netherworld Race over as reinforcements to help defend, but he never said he'd divert the Stygian River here, damn it!

Holy crap! Playing this big? Was Jiangnan trying to defy the heavens?

He directly channeled a tributary from the Minghe Star Domain through the dimensional gap to flow here!

A Stygian River three light-years wide as an ultimate moat?

Damn!

That fish-headed boy in red briefs—could he be the legendary Stygian Koi?

Jiangnan actually subdued him?

Not only Noah and the others were shocked, but even Yang Jian was dumbfounded!

They were just supposed to have the Netherworld Race guard the city, but diverting the Stygian River here as well?

No wonder Jiangnan had been so confident from the start; he had planned this all along?

So under the stunned gazes of everyone in the Sea of Star Embers, Jiangnan led Little Carp around the inner ring of the star zone several times!

The Stygian River turned the places Little Carp swam into river channels, spiraling around and completely enveloping the inner ring!

The raging Stygian roared and surged, flowing around a few laps before returning to the dimensional gap!

The natural Stygian force field emitted by the river covered the entire inner ring of the human star zone!

No one could reach the central base planet and race beacon without being affected by the Stygian force field!

The middle ring where the War Platform was located and the outer ring were completely unaffected!

Because the force field from the Stygian didn't cover them!

At this moment, Qian Li's expression froze, his face turning utterly gloomy. Apart from the Carbon Alliance, the expressions of the other Star Devourers were extremely grim!

Everyone knew exactly what this meant!

Jiangnan, having set up the moat, brought Little Carp back to the War Platform!

Little Carp tilted his head back, hugging a Dali bucket, chugging it down crazily!

His dead fish eyes were filled with an air of wisdom!

The starry sky was dead silent!

Jiangnan smiled faintly: (。≖ི↼≖ི。) "Where is the Netherworld Legion?"

At his command, a golden streak shot out of the dimensional gap from the surging Stygian River!

It spiraled along the river and finally emerged on the surface!

Countless Netherworld race warriors, all with explosive muscles, bald heads shining bright, clad in battle armor, fully armed, stood on the river surface!

Arranged in formation, their momentum was fierce!

It was a Netherworld Legion of over a billion!

Leading them were Jiu Lan and Bing Chacha!

Among these billions of warriors, only Jiu Lan had hair!

She stood out from the rest!

At the very front stood Youming himself!

He gazed at the brilliant Sea of Star Embers from the river surface, his mind stirring!

"It's been a long time... the starry sky."

But in his heart, he couldn't help feeling nervous. By showing up here today with his troops, he was completely breaking ties with the Sacred Law Council and the Bose Race!

If Jiangnan's plan didn't succeed, the Netherworld Race would have no good ending!

From the moment he stood here, there was no turning back!

But Youming still came!

If you don't fight for it, you get nothing!

At this moment, the entire starry sky was in an uproar!

Turning the Stygian River into a moat? Even calling the Netherworld Race to guard the city for humanity?

How were they supposed to fight?

Who dared to go in? Under the Stygian force field, no matter how great your skills, the Netherworld race would beat the crap out of you, right?

Didn't the Netherworld race have a grudge against Jiangnan? They even imprisoned him before. How did they join forces?

And more importantly!

Why did the Stygian River flow outside the Minghe Star Domain?

At this moment, the starry sky races were full of questions!

But Qian Li was furious. How could he not see the implications?

This was a challenge to the Bose race's dominance over the starry sky!

(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "Jiang! Nan! What the hell are you doing here?"

"I announce the disqualification of the human race from the Sequence War. Your points are voided. Immediately withdraw from the Sea of Star Embers!"

"The Netherworld Race, without permission from the Sacred Law Council, violated the Stygian Accord by stepping out of the Minghe Star Domain. They shall receive the severest racial sanctions!"

"Execute immediately!"

But Jiangnan laughed, looking displeased: (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅) "You announce? What the hell is your announcement worth? Is the Sacred Law Council your family business?"

"Disqualify the human race from the Sequence War? On what grounds?"

"Which rule of the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle have we violated?"

Qian Li glared: "You..."

Jiangnan said flatly: "The rules state that alliances, joint operations, and other war methods can be used. Non-racial personnel, slave races, reinforcements, etc., can all participate in battle. The Sacred Law Council has no authority to control that!"

"The Netherworld Race, as allies of humanity, participate as reinforcements to help defend the home. Where is that wrong?"

"The Stygian River, as a defensive facility of humanity, serves as a moat to repel foreign invaders. Which rule does that violate?"

Jiangnan recited the rules of the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle like he knew them by heart!

Chen Mu glared: ꒰⸝⸝ꐦ°᷄益°᷅⸝⸝꒱ "Bullshit! When has anyone ever diverted the Stygian River as a defensive measure? How can we fight? Even a Star Devourer personally attacking can't break in, right?"

"And that fish-headed boy..."

Jiangnan spread his hands: ╮(。・ˇ̫ˇ・)╭ "Oh, oh~ You're not going to say this isn't a Star Breaker level power, are you? Little Carp's level can't be defined~ So it doesn't count. That's what the Silicon Lord said!"

"Also... even if it's considered a Star Devourer, what's wrong with a Star Devourer participating in base construction? You all do the same!"

"Yu Gen and Di Chou are charging the four-dimensional cube. The Bose race stuffed the base planet into an alternate dimension. The silicon race later built a neutron star collider, and that doesn't count either!"

"Chen Mu fills the defense zone with stardust. Mailiushi injects energy into the Star Array. Shengyueke and Lucifer directly charge the Immortal Cloud. Little Carp making a Stygian River moat for our star zone—no problem, right?"

(˵ಡωಡ) "As long as we withdraw from the Sea of Star Embers before the official battle starts, right? What? If you guys have the ability to make a Stygian River moat, I won't stop you. Go ahead!"

"You have such means? Use them! But do you? I'm more familiar with the rules of the Sequence Offensive and Defensive Battle than you are. Do I need you to lecture me?"

"This is just sour grapes! Go cool off somewhere else!"

Yu Gen nearly passed out from anger. Damn!

Weren't those all my words?

The Star Devourers were all choked, finally realizing why Jiangnan had been strolling around earlier, visiting everyone.

So this was his setup!

This move completely shut the mouths of all the Star Devourers, leaving them speechless!

If they said Jiangnan violated the rules, then their own positions would be untenable. How could they argue?

Noah's mouth twitched: "With this ability to argue against all these masters, does he really need the Carbon Alliance to back him up? He could shut them all up by himself!"
