Chapter 2763: Ambush!
And at the same time Yang Jian and the others were having their meeting!
At the Beimian Xingkong Kuangchang, a small team of the Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun, composed of Damon, Taro, Borden, Samo, and Hei Gang, had just completed their operation here!
During the auction, due to the Silicon's price-hiking, over a dozen slave races all went unsold, with the prices being driven to an outrageous level!
Even having someone else bid incognito didn't work, which pissed the guys off completely!
So they simply decided not to buy!
Every single one of them was a damn criminal anyway, why bother with rules?
They just went back to their old trade—hijacking the convoy and taking it by force!
After all, it was a cost-free deal, and it even saved them money~
The hijacking went pretty smoothly. Although the escort convoy resisted a little!
But what were Taro and the others doing? They were all trained through the struggles of Ming He Death Prison!
So they handled it without much trouble, and even robbed the escort convoy clean!
That would serve as funding for this operation!
In the starry sky, a slave transport ship that had been beaten to pieces was flying along while emitting smoke!
Inside were the spoils from this operation!
They planned to fly to Haitang Mining to hand them over to Boss Pang, so they could proceed with their next mission!
On the spaceship deck, Damon was squatting off to the side, picking at his fingers, his fierce face full of guilt…
(◔～◔ิメ)"Hey~ Damon went and did something bad again. We should have left a pair of underwear for those escort guys. I wonder if they're cold out here in the starry sky, and whether they'll get chewed out for messing up the job…"
"After all, they were just following orders. Was it really okay for us to do this?"
Seeing Damon starting to blame himself again, Samo quickly went over to comfort him!
(。ớ₃ờ)ھ"Don't feel bad. None of us are exactly good people, are we? If we hadn't stepped in, would those slave races have had any good fate being sent to the mine? Most of them would have gotten sick and died from the radiation of the energy crystals!"
"Besides, we didn't kill them, did we? We just robbed them clean and checked their back pockets. What good would it have done to leave them just a pair of underwear?"
Borden raised an eyebrow: (๑◔↼◔ิ)"And on the streets, people usually sew money into their underwear. You think we'd let that slide?"
Taro burst out laughing:
(ᵒ̶̶̷̀ω˂̶́(˵¯͒ꇴ¯͒˵)˘﹃˘)"Stop making that sour face. If you feel like you did something bad, then go do something even worse to lower your moral standards. That way, when you think back on this, you won't have any psychological pressure, right?"
Hei Gang's forehead was pouring with sweat. You really know how to comfort people!
Taro couldn't be more smug. The Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun was really shaping up. If they kept this up, how far could they be from restoring the glory of the Desolate God Clan?
Ahahahaha!
"Our next stop…"
Before he could finish, the battle armor the Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun was wearing directly sparked and failed, and a harsh static noise came from their communication devices!
Samo's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "A betrayal among thieves? We're carrying the goods. Not good for a fight. Let's scram first!"
Saying that, he tried to use Dimensional Star Ring to directly enter the Dimensional Gap, but even when he threw it out, there was no response!
The void was directly suppressed, as hard as metal, impossible to tear open!
In the starry sky, a series of blood-colored lights flashed over, their bodies wreathed in blood-colored Air-Speed Force!
They were the fully armed Xueji Troops!
The leader was one named Xue Ning. More and more figures flashed over!
Fifty thousand, a hundred thousand…
The few thousand Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun members Taro and the others had brought were now completely outmatched!
And these Xueji Troops no longer had control modules on the backs of their heads—clearly they had been upgraded and iterated!
Xue Ning smiled:
(ꐦ°᷄↼°᷅)"How about I decide what your next stop is, brothers?"
As he spoke, he twisted his neck, and his blood-colored crystal muscles expanded three times over!
The surrounding Module Starships exited their Divine Concealment state, having already formed an encirclement kill field!
And from the outside, everything looked normal—clearly they had used phantom camouflage!
It wasn't just the Xueji Troops that came; traveling with them was also Tao!
Tao said expressionlessly:
[┐≖_≖┌]"The Sacred Law Council has detected that all of you are fugitives in the starry sky, not yet having completed your sentences before escaping to the starry sky. You just committed a criminal act!"
"Extremely heinous. To sum up, I will represent the Sacred Law Council in carrying out your arrest! Please do not engage in meaningless resistance!"
"Although the outcome of resistance won't change anything anyway!"
At this, Taro and the others' expressions turned completely grim. Clearly, this was a carefully prepared ambush operation by the Silicon!
Given the Silicon's nature, their chances of escaping were nearly zero!
Samo sneered:
(ꐦ°᷄д°᷅)"Heh~ Damn! Fugitives in the starry sky? Could you drop the high-sounding excuses, please?"
"If you want to pick a fight, just say so. Not resist? Do you think that's possible?"
Taro narrowed his eyes: "Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun, prepare for battle!"
With that, he directly slapped Ta Yue Luo in the face!
(ᵒ̶̶̷̀◠˂̶́(¯͒益¯͒)꒪ͦε꒪ͦ(#)ᕤ
"Quit your damn sleeping! We've got work to do. Go all out. If you end up sleeping to death later, what's the point?"
Ta Yue Luo, jolted awake by a big slap, was full of grievance and was about to start cursing!
But seeing the scene, he swallowed his words, his eyes full of anger!
Tao said calmly: "Did you figure it out? Not stupid. Then I won't pretend anymore. Today, we really are here to pick a fight!"
Borden narrowed his eyes: (≖益≖ꐦ)"Is the Silicon tired of living? Aren't you afraid Brother Nan will come after you? If you go too far, what awaits you won't be threats!"
"It will be a joint attack directly targeting the main terminal. Buddy, think about the consequences!"
But Tao just laughed:
[┐￢↼￢┌]"Is that so? I'd be happy with that! Don't think you can scare me with Jiang Nan! There's a saying: far water can't quench near thirst!"
"Besides, Silicon consciousness entities don't have the emotion of fear; they only act on orders!"
"Move! Make it quick. These are all bargaining chips, high-quality experiment subjects, culture dishes. Maybe they can become part of you too!"
"Don't break them!"
Xue Ning sneered: "You can count on me!"
With that, he turned into a streak of blood-colored light, charging straight at Taro!
Taro roared: "Do you really think I was raised on scare tactics? My brothers are all people who hang their lives on their belts. We've never been afraid!"
"Desolate God Treading the Star! Roar~!"
At that moment, Taro's body began to expand infinitely, and he even remembered to eat Strongman Pills, Horse Biscuits, Mouse Biscuits, Green Sticks, and the like!
The Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun's backpack were all fully loaded!
Samo's body crystallized, turning into a meteor as he charged straight at the encirclement formation, trying to find an opening!
Meanwhile, Borden narrowed his eyes:
(ꐦ･ˇ益ˇ･ꐦ)"Come on then! Picking a fight, huh? Do you know that I've been holding back my anger for months!"
"Domain Expansion — Metal Storm!"
"Steel Fortress!"
In almost an instant, the spaceship beneath his feet directly turned into a solid mass of Strong-Phase Alloy, spreading outward and growing from that center!
In no time at all, a giant Steel Fortress made entirely of Strong-Phase Alloy took shape!
Hei Gang's entire body metallized, turning into a Black Warrior as he charged straight at the Xueji Troops!
Just as Taro had said, every brother was a vicious criminal. Every extra day they lived was a bonus. Who cared about fear?
Fight!
But the moment they made contact, the Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun was utterly crushed!
Not to mention the ten-to-one numerical disadvantage, but the individual combat strength of the Xueji Race was terrifying—they were the Silicon's ace troops, possessing multiple abilities, and they had domains too!
Even if they couldn't integrate the abilities perfectly, switching between them to fight was already extremely troublesome!
Taro and the others felt like they were fighting a hundred thousand Yakelis at once!
Even with the backpack support, they were destined to lose!
Taro's giant Desolate God Body was being swarmed and beaten by tens of thousands of Xueji Troops, covered in wounds and bloody holes, blood flowing like a waterfall!
Two of his three heads had been chopped off, and he was almost being whittled down to a human stump!
Hei Gang's physical strength and abilities couldn't match the Xueji Troops at all!
He was pummeled into a lump of iron, vomiting molten iron!
Samo couldn't break the encirclement formation at all. Since the Silicon had made their move, they wouldn't give him any chance!
Even Samo was beaten to pieces, his crystal body scattered everywhere, and even so, he was still cursing loudly!
But luckily, most of them were material-type lifeforms and not so easy to kill!
Borden's War Fortress couldn't hold either—what others saw as an extremely tough defense appeared as fragile as rubber in the eyes of the Xueji soldiers!
Hundreds of fist indents were pressed into Borden's body, all over!
It was worth noting that when those Xueji soldiers were beating Borden, one punch landed right on his philtrum!
There was a loud "clang" sound, and the Xueji soldier's fist cracked, but it left no mark!
Unconvinced, the Xueji soldiers kept pounding Borden's philtrum, but without exception, all their fists shattered, while Borden remained steadfast!
Borden, beaten until he was rolling his eyes and spitting molten iron, shouted:
(ლ)꒪ͦཀ꒪ͦ(ლ)"A bunch of small fries! Do you think I, Steel Ball, earned my reputation for nothing? I'm the man with the most guts in Ming He Death Prison! All my cultivation is right here! So what if you have Blood Crystal Muscles?"
"If I weren't off my game today, I'd poke a whole bunch of holes in you bastards!"
Still boasting, Borden's head was smashed flat like a pancake before he was finally subdued!
But even though the Xueji soldiers were careful, accidents still happened. Blades and fists had no eyes!
Several members of the Qun Xing Luan Shi Jun were accidentally killed by the Xueji soldiers' heavy blows!
Xue Ning held half a ghost race's head in his hand, his eyes full of apology!
(⌒_⌒;)"Sorry, I didn't expect him to be so fragile. I accidentally beat him to death~"
When Damon saw a brother die in Xue Ning's hands, he could no longer suppress his killing intent!
"You! How dare you! Die! All of you go to hell!"
At that moment, Damon instantly went berserk, entering a crazy state, his murderous intent raging like a storm!
Rolling crimson Baleful Flame wildly poured into his body!
But Xue Ning narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Sorry, I can do that too!"
Horns of blood grew from his head as he immediately activated the Baleful Qi Secret Art!
Even if Damon's berserk form made him stronger, he had his limits. There were over a hundred thousand Xueji Troops on the field!
When the Silicon decided to act, the outcome was already sealed. But the Silicon's operations weren't just limited to this one place!
