Chapter 276 - XVII Crossed Swords (1/2)

”I should have guessed it was a trap.” Yawen snorted slightly. ”Have the healers clean this mess, and stop attacking until we are sure on how to deal with this.”

The humanoid creatures weren't just meat shields, they were acc.u.mulating damage before reflecting it back on them. Against enemies like this, the more power was behind their attacks, more beneficial it would be to their enemies.

Hearing her orders, all the warsh.i.p.s retreated and luckily the creatures stayed in their position, giving the allied forces time to regroup. While the royal families seven armies largely confused by the commotion inside the near battlesh.i.p.s, they also knew something must have happened in the front.

With the passage of time, more and more of those horrendous creatures would pour out of the barrier, In the meanwhile, they tried the lasers and cannons in the sh.i.p.s, but even those would be destroyed after killing a few hundred thousand of the creatures.

But what bothered Yawen the most wasn't the existence of these creatures, but their identity. Surely the life out of nothing, to reach a certain stage both genetic evolution and natural growth by interacting with others is needed for each living being to achieve completion.

Even the prime beasts were converted forms of humans, which were reversed in their opposite by the power of the great intelligence which means those creatures must have been made with the same method.

”If you are thinking those creatures were the mortals of that world you must be certainly right.” A new voice sounded in the brigade, different from all those in the Void clan star cruiser and its crew was taken by surprise.

Yawen turned her eyes to Luna, who was in charge of the security systems, the latter wryly smiled. She also didn't know somebody has sneaked into their ship while they were incapable of noticing it.

”I'm sorry I came unannounced.” A middle-aged man came out of the shadows. His distinct facial features as well as his long blood red hair, which was one of the forms he liked to use, Yawen's face turned dark as she recognized the man and intense pressure burst forth from her slim body.

”Oh my, when did that little princess became so aggressive. There is no reason to worry about little old me.”The man had six pairs of dark, feathered-wings what looked like a sword on his back.

Yawen twitched when she spoke to him.”Uncle Lucifer, what are you doing here?”

”Nothing my dear, it is just that I was passing by and saw you guys were in need of a little help.” The man stepped forward and sat on one of the chairs.

Hearing his words, Yawen and the others widen their eyes and they all stood up. ”Do you know what is happening?”

”Me?” Lucifer pointed at himself and refused with his head. ”No, not me. There is somebody else near who knows more than me.”

'Somebody else?' Yawen, Aina, Yalli and the others scanned the bridge with their eyes and senses, but none of them could sense anything. All the heard was steps behind them, a beautiful woman in a black and white dress.

Yalli pinched Ava who was next to her and asked in a low voice. ”Is this not that female goddess in Eternia?”

”I know.” Ava replied and nodded with her head. ”It sure looks like her, but haven't the divines lost their power?”
