Chapter 499: Looking for the Book of Darkness?
According to Shen You's initial plan, it was to use the power of the Green Lantern Corps to launch a carpet search of the entire universe to find clues to the Book of Darkness. After all, according to the original work, this thing should not be easily exposed before the darkest night comes, and if there is anyone in the current universe who really has the power to search the entire universe, it seems that there is really only the Green Lantern Army.
As a result, I never expected that this idea would not be useful at all. The spectral search range has just spread to the Milky Way, and there is a direct reaction.
Is it really such a coincidence?
Shen You thought about it for a while, and felt that maybe it might not be a coincidence.
The darkest night is approaching, so it is natural that the Book of Darkness should be closer to the place where the prophecy broke out. As we all know, the earth is the center of the multiverse, and the darkest night erupts on the earth, when all the heroes and all the lights will gather on the earth to fight.
As the prophecy approaches, it seems reasonable that the Book of Darkness will creep into the galaxy.
When the coordinates were locked, Shen You was even more surprised to find that the place was not unfamiliar.
The coordinates of the last occurrence of the Radar marked the Dark Book's death fluctuations are in Almerick, known as the number one empire in the galaxy.
When he saw this name, Shen You's expression became slightly subtle.
For some reason, the thought of having to go to that place made me a little bigger
"Sir?" Parr asked.
"It's fine. Modify the schedule. Shen You got up, and as he spoke, the armor covered his whole body with the movement of his mind, "Let's go to Almerek." ”
Almerik, on a planet to which the Empire belongs.
Brilliant explosions, skyrocketing fires. Colorful lasers divided the battlefield, and the impact of powerful weapons formed a brilliant colorful storm, and the formation soared into the sky.
The silver-gray torrent was stuck at the pass, and the chariots and flying machines were arranged in an iron bucket-like formation. It was Almerec's army, pouring fire on the other side of the pass.
And their opponent is an immortal army.
An army of zombie-like things, humanoids, animals, and even vegetation and trees glowing with black blood, like a wave of darkness, constantly poured into the army's position. The roars, the roars echoed through the air, each one creepy. They have no pain, they know no fear, but they do not fall.
Whether it's a limb blown away, a headshot in the head, or even a direct decomposition of powerful energy and blasted into ashes, they will regenerate from the ashes.
Endless hunger and thirst, endless desire to destroy, immortal body, and amazing physical fitness.
A shadow rushed left and right in the zombie horde, and the beams of light continued to erupt between the waves of his palms. With each blast of energy, several zombies were reduced to ashes.
The zombies around them stepped forward to try to surround it, but it was completely inferior to the strength and speed of the shadow. The figure passed through, and under the impact and qi waves, a large number of zombies suddenly turned on their backs, turning into flying ashes under the scorching and transparent energy ripples.
Princess Almerek No, it should be Her Majesty by now.
Maxima.
She slashed back and forth through the horde for several rounds until a large body suddenly appeared in the valley. Monsters tens of meters tall, dark gray skin, covered with scales and pustules, emitted a nasty stench. Its eyes shone with a dark light, like pitch-black flames, and its unusually large head had a bloody mouth.
Maxima immediately noticed the most striking of the creatures, turned around and rushed towards it with a gorgeous trajectory of energy. But the beast moved so fast that it was completely disproportionate to its size, and a slap in the face was a slap. Maxima was hit head-on, flew upside down for kilometers faster than she had come, and slammed into the ground.
But Her Majesty's other advantage is that she is very durable, she got up and shook her head, and immediately prepared to charge again. But before he could set off, he suddenly heard an emergency call from the communication.
From the headquarters, it was a code to call her back to have something important to discuss.
Maksima hesitated for a moment and flew back to the camp, frowning and dissatisfied: "I'm working." What are you doing in such a hurry to call me back? ”
"I'm sorry Your Majesty." The field commander in the camp lowered his head, "But you should have also noticed that these things can't be killed." No matter how many times you kill, it will regenerate. ”
"Huh?"
Máxima blinked twice.
And what's going on? Should I have found out?
I just didn't pay attention to the dry people at all.
"That's it. So what to do? ”
Her Majesty has made no secret of her image as a war bale. Anyway, the people in the command are cronies, and everyone should have known about it for a long time. Rather than sitting in the back row, Her Majesty is still better at going to the front line and using her fists.
Why does she, who is an emperor, still have to do such a laborious thing as using her brain? It is enough to leave such a troublesome thing to her subordinates, she only needs to know "who to do".
The officer groaned and frowned, "We didn't expect such a situation, and there are some large monsters with powerful destructive power among the enemy. Anti-personnel firepower does not seem to be effective.
I suggest that we retreat for the time being and go back to a new strategy focused on controlling the shackles. ”
Dealing with these enemies is clearly a non-lethal trap of the capture and control class that is more effective than conventional lethal firepower.
"What about the Ontological people?" Maxima asked, "Has the evacuation been completed?" ”
"The evacuation of nearby urban areas has been completed, and the evacuation rate of civilians has reached more than 90%, which has basically
"More than 90 percent, that is, it has not been withdrawn." Maxima shook her head, "We're not leaving." ”
"Your Majesty, you don't understand, the inhabitants of the city have all left, and only two small villages remain. If we continue to consume like this, we will inevitably suffer a lot of casualties, and they are all elite soldiers of the Empire. It's not a good deal."
Máxima shook her head stubbornly.
"I don't have your brains, and I don't know any tactics, strategies, or anything, so I don't usually question your deployment. But I know one thing, it's not a deal, there's nothing cost-effective to say.
As long as there is one person left, we will not leave. ”
There was silence in the command room for a few seconds.
"Well, if that's His Majesty's instructions." The officer said, "We will follow to the death." ”
"That's what it sounds like."
Máxima grinned, and as she spoke, the man had risen back into the air.
"Then I'll go back to the front, a big guy just owed me a slap"
"Wait, sir, there's a situation. Something has just broken through the atmosphere. Someone shouted from behind the command room, "It's extremely fast, it's expected to be in a second."
Rumble!
The invisible force tore through the earth, like a meteorite falling from the sky, and it was smashing into the middle of the group of zombies. The heat of the blast made the air around it seem to start burning, and the ground caved into huge craters, and countless zombies were wrenched into it, their bodies shattered into powder.
Dust rose and smoke billowed from the clouds. Through the black smoke, the figure of a bathed giant seemed to be faintly visible, and the vague outline brought a bit of divine luster in the haze of the smoke screen.
"That's that"
The officer's eyes widened and he stared straight in that direction.
After a few seconds of pause, he remembered something and turned to look at Maxima.
And Her Majesty. Her Majesty's eyes seemed to have a light in them.
"When he came, I knew he would definitely come back"
Maxima's face was instantly excited.
"You're really finished this time!"
