The Last Commander of the Red Alert - Chapter 631: Mother Star's Wrath!
Su Chen, through the Galactic SpySatellites, could clearly see a powerful Winged Clan floating in the air, their eyes fixed on the Space Channel with determination.
It seemed he understood that he couldn’t pass through there, so he watched for a while and then left.
Trading an incomplete Base for the successful construction of Galactic SpySatellites, Su Chen considered it a worthwhile deal. After all, he had thousands of Bases at his disposal, and he didn’t care about one being destroyed.
Now, Su Chen had found a sweet spot. Launching a Nuclear Bomb directly contributed a significant amount of Energy Points, which was an excellent way to level up.
However, a problem arose: What if the Winged Clan didn’t send anyone if he continued like this?
Su Chen planned to turn this place into an EarthTranscendent trial ground. If he didn’t interact with other races, EarthTranscendent’s power growth would be incredibly slow, which wasn’t what Su Chen wanted.
So, Su Chen gave up on the idea of throwing more Superweapons and, instead, returned to his Base with his team to research the Winged Clan Mother Star.
He was very curious about a Planet with consciousness.
Not only Su Chen but also his Super Soldiers were equally curious about what kind of place could give birth to a Planet with consciousness.
Su Chen didn’t know that somewhere on the Winged Clan Mother Star, the powerful Winged Clan individual who had destroyed the Red Alert Sub-base was half-kneeling in front of a female statue, respectfully saying, “Mother Star, I have destroyed the enemy’s Base and found no humans.”
The female statue resembled the Winged Clan but radiated a maternal beauty with a gentle aura.
“Select a child of Planet Ninth-level Peak and make them a Divine Envoy, then send them over,” a voice that sounded like heavenly music echoed.
“Yes, Mother Star.”
The Winged Clan individual left, knowing that Mother Star was angry.
Historically, only Large Galaxy-level Winged Clan members were qualified to become Divine Envoys. Over the years, there were only a little over a hundred Divine Envoys, which was extremely rare compared to the total number of Winged Clan members. Never before had there been a Ninth-level Divine Envoy, which meant that Mother Star was preparing to intervene personally.
Thinking of this, the Large Galaxy-level Winged Clan members couldn’t help but accelerate their pace.
Su Chen was unaware of Mother Star’s intentions. He was currently researching the general situation of the Winged Clan’s star system with his team.
“Commander, after some reconnaissance, we’ve noticed something strange about the Winged Clan’s star system,” Yun Ru said.
“What is it?” Su Chen asked.
“Normally, a star system has a central celestial body, and all other planets orbit around it. But the Winged Clan’s star system is peculiar; the center of the system is the Winged Clan Mother Star!”
Yun Ru waved his hand, and a three-dimensional image of the Winged Clan star system appeared before them. Su Chen took a look, and it was indeed the case.
All the other celestial bodies in the star system were rotating around the Winged Clan Mother Star, which was entirely unscientific. Typically, the central celestial body in a star system was a star, but how could there be intelligent life on a star?
Even the Zerg, known for surviving in various environments, couldn’t survive on a star’s surface for long. Powerful ones might barely manage, but weaker Zerg would likely be vaporized instantly upon approaching a star.
The only Red Alert soldier Su Chen had sent to collect information on the Winged Clan Mother Star found that the living conditions there were remarkably similar to Earth, and humans could survive directly on it. How could a planet like this be a star?
“What’s going on?” Su Chen was puzzled.
“I don’t know either. I’ve never even considered such a situation, but I have a theory,” Yun Ru pointed to the Winged Clan Mother Star, her expression serious. “The reason the Winged Clan star system has turned out like this is probably the consciousness of the Winged Clan Mother Star. As a Planet born with self-consciousness, we have no idea what abilities it possesses.”
“According to my analysis, to become the center of a star system, one would have to withstand considerable pressure. It’s possible that the Winged Clan Mother Star is using this method to make itself stronger. In other words, this is its cultivation technique.”
Su Chen almost couldn’t help but applaud Yun Ru’s explanation. It was both logical and reasonable, and the fact that he could make such a judgment from this information proved why she was the chief scientist.
“There’s another point to consider. The Winged Clan Mother Star is emitting light everywhere, and this might not be ordinary light. Commander Yun Ru and I have a theory that this light might be the overflow of energy from the Winged Clan Mother Star, aiding the Winged Clan in their cultivation,” Taru, who rarely spoke, chimed in.
A Planet that constantly assisted the Winged Clan in their cultivation was truly unique.
“So, you mean the Winged Clan’s strength is increasing every day?” Su Chen inquired.
Yun Ru and the others nodded, and Su Chen realized he had stated the obvious.
Now that Earth had become enemies with the Winged Clan, if the Winged Clan had the chance, they would undoubtedly seek to destroy Earth. However, conversely, Su Chen also desired to eliminate the Winged Clan. If only the weapons in his possession were more powerful, he would have considered bombing the Winged Clan Mother Star directly.
At that moment, the Eastern Emperor’s wife suddenly contacted Su Chen. “Your Majesty, the Winged Clan leader just informed me that one of their Divine Envoys is about to arrive. They’ve asked me to lead the reception for the Divine Envoy.”
No matter how the Heart Demon Clan had modified Du Jing’s body, her identity could never surpass that of a Divine Envoy. It was essential to note that Divine Envoys were all Large Galaxy-level powerhouses, and their status within the Winged Clan Mother Star was extremely high. There had never been a Divine Envoy below the Large Galaxy level.
“What is a Divine Envoy?” Su Chen asked.
“In the Winged Clan, only Large Galaxy-level Winged Clan members are qualified to become Divine Envoys.”
Su Chen was surprised. “Wasn’t it said that the Space Channel only allows Small Galaxy Ninth-level or below Winged Clan members to pass through? And there’s already a Small Galaxy Ninth-level, with no other Winged Clan members stronger than Ninth-level Peak. How can a Divine Envoy come here? This is a Large Galaxy-level powerhouse; it could be dangerous.”
“I don’t have the specific details. This is the message relayed to me by the Winged Clan leader. The Divine Envoy will arrive in less than two hours.”
Su Chen’s expression darkened. This was troublesome.
The conversation between Su Chen and the Eastern Emperor’s wife was overheard by others, and they sensed the gravity of the situation.
“Commander, should we destroy the Space Channel directly? We may not be able to handle a Divine Envoy, but dealing with a Space Channel should not be a problem,” Yun Ru suggested confidently.
Su Chen had initially intended to use that place as a monster grinding spot, but it seemed the Winged Clan had no intention of being the monsters to grind; they had sent a big boss directly.
He didn’t know how the Winged Clan had managed to send a Divine Envoy through, and he didn’t want to take a gamble. After all, he couldn’t afford the consequences of losing.
“Very well, destroy the Space Channel immediately, before the Winged Clan Divine Envoy arrives.”
“Yes, Commander!”
Just then, an ordinary-looking Winged Clan member suddenly appeared from the Space Channel. Simultaneously, an overwhelmingly powerful aura emanated from his body, shaking the surroundings! (To be continued)
