Final Battle (Part III)

As high-ranking members of the empire, they had specifically studied the capability comparison between the Prada Civilization and Xiao Hen. The biggest difference, however, did not lie in attack power. To be honest, even when Xiao Hen used the formidable Divine Energy Impact, he still failed to destroy the heavily defended Prada Homeworld. Yet, if the Prada people pooled the power of all their warships to bombard Xiao Hen, this avatar of his would undoubtedly die.

Xiao Hen’s strength lay in his flexibility. He alone was equivalent to a collection of countless warships and mecha, and he could also use spatial abilities to roam everywhere across the entire galaxy. It was simply impossible to catch his movements, and he was only staying here right now because he wanted to suppress the Prada Homeworld.

As the leader of the Prada Civilization, the Lion Emperor was not afraid of Xiao Hen making a direct, head-on attack like this. Instead, he feared that Xiao Hen would rely on his formidable mobility to raid Prada’s major administrative planets and military bases. In that case, his own civilization’s military mobilization capacity and other forms of mobility were vastly inferior to the opponent’s. He estimated that by the time he received news of the first administrative planet being raided, the opponent would have already breached dozens of administrative planets.

Striking and instantly fleeing far away—under such ultra-high mobility, his own civilization’s forces would not even be able to catch a glimpse of the opponent’s figure. That was the most terrifying thing.

A cold glint flashed in the Lion Emperor’s indifferent eyes: But now, with this Spatial Wave Oscillation Frequency Locking Device, you won’t be able to run anymore. Hmph, no matter what origins your Church of Time and Space has, since you dared to attack the homeworld of my Prada Civilization, you will pay a heavy price!

"Your Majesty, the three locking devices have been manufactured. Once connected to each other, they can form a spherical containment barrier 1.3 light-years in diameter! If used individually, they can form three spherical barriers, each 1 light-year in diameter. Within them, no spatial abilities can be used—not even the Invisibility Art of the angels. Let alone the flash and teleportation abilities of the Six-winged Angels." Dr. Averroes chuckled. As a researcher, he naturally paid attention to the movements of the angels. The few abilities the angels suddenly acquired after the war broke out were within his research scope, such as the flash ability, which allowed instant movement within the range covered by spiritual power, and teleportation, which allowed a maximum teleportation distance of 1 light-year given spatial coordinates.

It could be said that the Six-winged Angels already possessed the combat capabilities of a Level-7 Civilization, surpassing even what top-tier mecha masters of a Level-7 Civilization could compare to. Facing the current Six-winged Angels, a Level-7 Civilization would need an entire fleet just to ensure a balance of strength, and whether they could win if a real fight broke out was still up in the air.

A sharp glint flashed in Dr. Averroes’s eyes. The angels in the past were not like this. Back then, the mecha piloted by the angels were all level-4, 5, and 6 mecha, and they wouldn’t be excessively strong. But now it was different; every single one of these angels actually possessed a Level-7 mecha, and the top-tier kind at that. Piloted by the angels, Two-winged Angels could rival ace mecha masters of a Level-7 Civilization, those Four-winged Angels could slaughter an entire mecha division, not to mention the Six-winged Angels, who were existences capable of rivaling an entire fleet.

This—this fucking thing was simply cheating.

It all happened after the appearance of that mysterious person. As long as we can eliminate this mysterious person, these angels are nothing to worry about! Dr. Averroes thought to himself.

"Since everything is prepared, all of you should go down to reorganize your military forces, await my orders at any time, and prepare for battle." The Lion Emperor narrowed his eyes. Instead of impetuously giving the order to attack immediately, he commanded everyone to return to their respective fleets and wait for his orders.

"Understood, Your Majesty!" Everyone stood up in unison, bowing and saluting.

Not a single person noticed that floating in the air of this palace were numerous tiny metal particles, countless times smaller than water molecules, drifting with the wind.

Of course they couldn’t notice. Even if these metal particles drifted into their bodies along with their respiration, they remained completely oblivious.

As Emmy Robots developed by the Koolm people based on the technology of the Transformers and Terminator worlds, they definitely belonged to the peak Level-7 tier of technology, leaning toward the technological power of the microscopic civilization.

Although this world also developed along the mechanical technology-side model of battleship and mecha tech, it had not made great achievements in microscopic technology. Therefore, the Prada Civilization was fundamentally incapable of discovering the presence of the Emmy Robots.

These Emmy Robots casually attached themselves to the orcs. Including the Lion Emperor, everyone was monitored by Xiao Hen without realizing it.

In the cosmic void, Xiao Hen wore a curious expression: "Spatial Wave Oscillation Frequency Locking Device? A technological weapon developed based on the Heart of the Angel?"

Pondering deeply for a moment, he simply could not find any trace of such technology within the Heart of the Angel. The intelligent system carried by the Heart of the Angel could control the divine cells contained within it to absorb and convert a great deal of energy, and could also freely travel back and forth between the real world, the alternate plane world, and the river of dark energy. It could shuttle through endless worlds, but it certainly didn’t have any kind of oscillation-frequency locking ability!

"Perhaps it’s drawing inferences from other instances! Based on the Heart of the Angel’s ability to shuttle through space, they researched the ability to lock down space. Hmm, that’s indeed very possible. The ability they relied on previously to imprison the Heart of the Angel should be the oscillation-frequency locking ability. But back then, it could only lock down a very, very small area—at most a few hundred kilometers, just like that kind of space imprisonment ability on warships, which can prohibit teleportation, flashing, and shifting!"

"And now, this imprisonment ability has been upgraded, and it’s a major upgrade at that, directly advancing to a 1-light-year spatial shielding. That is extraordinary, even more powerful than the space imprisonment ability of the Koolm people!" Xiao Hen smiled faintly. Only like this would things be interesting; he wanted to see how the other party planned to kill him.

Just like that, under the full-process surveillance of their enemy Xiao Hen, the Prada Civilization began to take action, preparing to ‘secretly’ set a trap. Before Xiao Hen could escape, they would imprison him within a spherical space 1.3 light-years in diameter, and then pool the main-gun power of countless warships to blast him to death in a single strike!

Well, the ideal was plump, but reality was skeletal. Watching these Prada people brimming with confidence as they prepared to come and kill him, this great demon king, Xiao Hen chuckled in spite of himself. Yet he truly did not attempt to escape; instead, he calmly stayed right where he was, allowing the opponent to ‘successfully’ imprison him within the 1.3-light-year radius while putting on a pretense of being completely unaware.

"Hahahaha, Your Majesty, the Spatial Wave Oscillation Frequency Locking Device has been successfully activated. We have successfully locked him within that spatial zone. The opponent seems completely oblivious!"

"Heementee, before using spatial abilities, there’s no way to detect this kind of blockade. This is our biggest advantage in successfully eliminating the opponent. If not for this, even if space were sealed, the opponent’s flight speed in the cosmic void is extremely fast, and whether we could kill him would still be up in the air. Now like this, it’s wonderful!"

"Dr. Averroes is right!"

"Your Majesty, please give the order to attack!"

"That’s right, Your Majesty! I can’t wait to watch this demon die!"

"Your Majesty, all our fleets have finished reorganizing. We are just waiting for your word to blast this demon into slag in a single strike!"
