Chapter 239: Start of the Real War!


    Trantor: EndlessFantasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion


    The ck Dragon was a super species man couldn’t understand.


    ording to mankind’s understanding of evolutionary theory, the ck Dragons should be born on a that has gravitational force 20 timesrger than Earth’s, a barrenndscape, ack of food, low concentration of atmospheric oxygen, and was prone to frequent natural disaster.


    It was the logical exnation behind why the ck Dragon was such a powerful super species. Survival of the fittest, natural selection, one of the most epted theories within biology.


    However, life would be impossible on such a. Gravity that is 20 times stronger than Earth’s? That alone is enough to make the existence of such a dubious. With that strong of a gravitational force, how small would the have to be? Or perhaps the geological structure of the would be different? Under such circumstances, how could there even be a food chain when the nts that form the foundation of all food chains would have difficulty growing?


    So why would the ck Dragons evolve to such a stage in the rtively peaceful new? What kind of event instigated such a drastic change in their evolutionary journey?


    These were questions mankind’s current scientific knowledge couldn’t answer.


    However, one thing was for sure: the ck Dragons were friendly to mankind’s presence. Of course, it was not at a stage that was akin to man’s rtionship to dogs, but it was obvious that at least the ck Dragons were not averse to humanity’s presence. However, it was another question whether the ck Dragons would put themselves on the line to fight for humanity’s survival. I suppose we’ll soon find out...


    The moment Yang Sen lost his consciousness, a gori alien that was picking up an unconscious human beings was crushed into a mess of guts and meat by a ck Dragon. The dragons’ speed was so fast that the space merchants werepletely oblivious to their approach. Even though their spacesuits were equipped with thetest radar system they had, it was still too slow inparison to the ck Dragons’ speed.


    Especially now, when the Hope’s power system had gonepletely offline and the ship had be a zero-gravity environment. While the space merchants’ spacesuits were more advanced than mankind’s, proven by the more numerous propulsion systems that decorated their spacesuits, providing a better bnce and speed, the loss of gravity still greatly affected their mobility.


    About 20 ck Dragons entered the space merchants’ sight. The dragons maintained an unusual stance to move forward. Their tails and ws firmly pierced through the metallicyer. The paths that they travelled were left with a trail of small, deep holes. The deepest were the ones made by their tails. It appeared like they were flinging themselves forward using this kind of forward momentum. Of course, they used this method to change directions freely in space too. They approached the zero-gravity environment like fish in the water. The zero-gravity did nothing to slow them down; in fact... they might have been even faster in this environment!


    When the ck Dragons appeared, the hundreds of space merchants changed their formation. The gori aliens led the frontline, rushing at the dragons, their stun guns at the ready. The space merchants seemed intent on capturing the ck Dragons alive.


    That was a mistake...


    In the blink of an eye, all of the ck Dragons disappeared from their sight and appeared around the group of unconscious human beings. The leading ck Dragon, the one that was missing a leg, sniffed the human beings on the floor and gave out a booming roar. The rest of his pack joined in the war-drum-like growling.


    In the next second, 20 adult ck Dragonsunched headfirst into the space merchant troops, and about 10 of 30 space goris that stood in the front were knocked out of their formation. A few of them were torn into pieces by the ck Dragons. After a swipe of their ws, the aliens’ spacesuits were shredded like paper. They were defenseless.


    Of course, the space merchants kept shooting at the ck Dragons, but the dragons simply shrugged the stream of electricity off. An electrical voltage that was strong enough to knock a grown man out instantly was like a mosquito bite to the ck Dragons. They ignored the space merchants’ pitiful attacks and tore freely through their ranks.


    It was a massacre!


    On the other hand, with the power outage, all of the space armors came back online. After ensuring this development, Yao Yuan stopped hesitating. He led the troopers who were back in their armors to the jet hangar.


    There were only about 80 Defense Unit soldiers left at the central mainframe. Furthermore, most of these 80 people were already stunned by the electrical gun and were biting their lips to keep themselves from fainting. At this moment, they had reached their very limit. When Yao Yuan’s unit charged out from within the central mainframe, several four-armed goris were charging in. They knocked the Defense Unit soldiers out of the way like nothing. One of them even picked up a soldier, aiming to throw him at the Hope’s central mainframe!


    A sh of red lightning zipped through, and from top to bottom, the space gori was split cleanly down the middle.


    With the space armor’s aid, Yao Yuan didn’t even need to stop to collect himself. He immediately went after the next space gori. Furthermore, the space armor greatly reinforced his physical power, so he could even rival a ck Dragon in strength. It was a pure force that was even greater than a giant tank.


    Yao Yuan mmed into a space gori and carried his momentum to ram into the other aliens in the area. The aliens piled onto one another, being carried by Yao Yuan’s force until eventually they were sent careening into the rest of the space merchants out in the corridor leading to the central mainframe.


    "Leave no prisoners! Troopers, use your sawdes and hack your way through!" Yao Yuan yelled into hismunicator, and momentster, the air was thick with blood...


    More spacebat jets continued to stream out of the space merchants’ mother ship. There were around 1,500 circrbat jets as well as 100 plus several-hundred-meter-long circr spaceships. When the three human spaceships, the Observer and the Defenders, self-destructed, about 400bat jets and 20 spaceships were caught in the explosion. Regardless, the space around the Hope was still teeming with these hostile spaceships.


    The spaceships travelled to and from the Hope and the mothership ferrying the human cargo, but it stopped temporarily when the power went out for the second time on the Hope. Perhaps it was their dogmatism, but the leaders of these space merchant units resumed their capturing mission. The only change was that the spaceship started circling the Hope in high alert.


    About 7 minutester, a redbat jet shot out of the Hope with startling speed. Otherbat jets followed it out one after another. There were about 100bat jets in total. Their shapes and appearances werepletely different from the space merchants’ circrbat jets. Mankind’sbat jets had adopted the sleek, streamlined design that was poprized by airnes and aircrafts. Their appearance was quickly noted by the space merchants.


    It took the space merchants about two seconds to realize that they needed to capture the redbat jet, but that was easier said than done.


    The redbat jet was faster than any one of them. Before the space merchants could close in on it, it sped through their enclosing web, causing more than half of them to lose their offensive formation. However, the space merchants recuperated quickly. They decided to stop giving chase to the redbat jet and focused on the rest.


    A bent pipe appeared underneath their spaceship and began to shoot a series of bright, glowing, fast-moving bullets. They looked like Gaussian weapons but had a firing modepletely different from other Gaussian weapons.


    They miscalcted because unlike their ownbat jets, which were piloted by normal soldiers, their enemies’bat jets were piloted by Homo Evolutis that made up the ck Star Troopers. Before the bullets even left the pipe, the Troopers had already felt their projection of malice and separated, evading the attack. Even though their speed was not as high as the redbat jet’s, it was still far beyond the space merchants’ speed. They escaped their trap easily and sped outside of the Hope’s creator’s particle range!


    "Fire! Take down any enemybat jet you can see! Leave therger spaceships alone because they’re carrying our civilians!"


    Yao Yuan pulled on the control stick and the Red Lightning made a drastic U-turn in space. When he righted himself, all the space troopers had escaped the creator’s particle zone. He yelled with eyes burning with rage, "Since they’ve asked for war, we’ll give them one! Charge! We’ll crush them to a pulp!"


    The Gaussian railgun and the mini cannon on Red Lightning started roaring as thebat jet charged towards one of the nearest circrbat jets...
