Chapter 758: Live Fire Reconnaissance

When they saw the embattled planets, their hearts fell

It had become purple, as everyone had expected But the sick color extended well past the planet itself and had begun to infect space around it Aliens far as the eye could see surrounded it like a plague of locusts

If the nu, what they saw before the They filled space as numerous as asteroids in the Shattered Starfields – ines

“This is the aliens’ an to wonder if he was scared, he added a sentence “So many vital crystals!”

“Is there any lireed?” Lan Jue muttered “Mika, pull us into orbit and keep your distance Let’s take a look around, head for the nearest satellite planet then we’ll go fro”

“Aye, aye!” The tomen replied in unison

Most of the creatures they saere of the sort they’d witnessed before, however they were a few that were new to Lan Jue Beasts over a thousand , three thousand meters or more were rarer

According to Lan Jue’s esti were equivalent to huy than a typical Paragon did The smaller they became the weaker they were Of course, this didn’t include those that could alter their appearance, like the Violet Prince and Princess

As they continued their distant trajectory, only one word could describe the scene: Shocking

It was staggering to behold At least three times the nuer than they’d ever seen When did they become so numerous? Ten times as many humans wouldn’t be able to contend with an army this size Some were smaller, meant to force the enemy to waste their fire on them, but even those came in such numbers as to be a real threat

“Can we get through?” Lan Jue turned to Lin Guoguo Of course, hediscovered

She frowned “No, there are too nals at once We’d be discovered right away”

This was a probleet in closer, hoere they to complete their mission?”

Lan Qing’s words ticked the back of his mind There were so many aliens they couldn’t safely confirood as confir their evolution

Yet, they’d been wrong before Being wrong this ti Had Jue Di and Jun’er not helped when they did, huht back

Failure was not an option They had to confirm the planets’ condition or the next part of their plan could not be enacted

He muttered to the others “Continue on I don’t think the creatures can have this much space quarantined It doesn’t matter how many there are”

“Aye, aye!” Zeus-1 continued its forward journey

Indeed it appeared the aliens could keep everything locked down As they got closer to the planets things becaable But things orse than they expected Interspersed throughout space were many of the umbrella-shaped, jellyfish-like aliens they’d encountered before In Lan Jue’s experience they had the strongest psionic abilities, both very sensitive and wide-spread They didn’t haveability but they carried a small army with them wherever they went

The pulses froe as they were couo to nals froe, whereas other aliens’ calls were static

This wasby the fact that they couldn’t tell how many aliens were contained inside one For all they knew, one uh aliens to wipe out their little boat

It took the every planet The final analysis was the aliens were using overwhelically placed umbrella-aliens to keep this section of space locked away The seven outer planets were sentries, and Europa was safely nestled inside Learning anythingto seem impossible

“What do you think? “The Wine Master asked Lan Jue By now the bastions were already in position Middle Heaven, Poseidon, and Tyrannosaurus werefinal preparations Yet they still had no useful information to present
