<h4>Volume 1 Chapter 479 Internal Strife</h4>


    Although Luo Chen had gained absolute control of this body when he awakened, his thoughts could still affect the Empress'' judgement to a certain extent.


    From its previous battle with Old Man Zhan Tai, it could be seen that the Mother Emperor had morebat methods, and the Zerg''sbat skills were more direct and concealed, and could even directly kill that troublesome space sage.


    But Luo Chen''s personality and willingness allowed him to engage in a "meaningless" frontal battle.


    However, this battle proved at least one thing. After parasitizing Luo Chen, the Mother Emperor could even suppress the peakbat strength of the human race from the front.


    The reason why the Mother Emperor was unwilling to fight Old Man Zhan Tai when she first met him was because it was the first time she had parasitized him. She did not know just how powerful she was.


    "Luo Chen, how long do you think you canst?" The Empress'' voice was emotionless, as if she was asking a question that had nothing to do with it.


    From the moment the Mother Emperor appeared, transparent mes appeared in the air around Luo Chen andnded on Luo Chen''s body.


    This beautiful scene contained iparable danger. That transparent me was the "soul fire" that caused Leng Xing to suffer greatly. At this moment, it was actually used by the Mother Emperor to "refine" Luo Chen''s soul.


    Ironically, as a sage who controlled mes, Luo Chen had to be refined by his own mes after his death.


    Under the burning of the transparent mes, Luo Chen''s body became faintly visible. His eyebrows furrowed slightly, and it was clear that he was enduring great pain.


    "As you can see, it won''tst long." Under such circumstances, Luo Chen actually revealed a smile.


    The Mother Empress was inexplicably angry. No matter when, the man in front of her always maintained a calm and confident expression. It could upy Luo Chen''s body and even refine his soul, but it was unable to shatter this smile.


    "This battle with Zhan Tai is very good." Luo Chen suddenly said.


    Then he turned to look at the Empress, "However, humans are very strong, stronger than us, stronger than you think. Perhaps there is a possibility that we can eliminate humans, but you can''t do it."


    Hearing this, the Empress narrowed her eyes, and more transparent mes appeared in the void. Luo Chen''s body was evenpletely surrounded by them.


    However, Luo Chen''s voice continued, "Look, humans have been at ease for too long and be a little tired. But when danger trulyes, their potential to explode will exceed your imagination …"


    Luo Chen''s voice became erratic as he gave up resisting.


    Actually, Luo Chen didn''t feel any regrets in his heart. Although he was a powerful sage, he never lost the thought of bing stronger. On the contrary, he yearned to fight.


    However, humans strictly forbade sages from fighting amongst themselves. After all, the casualties of every sage were a huge loss to the entire human race.


    To a certain extent, after being parasitized, it ended his desire to have a hearty battle with the other experts.


    As for the future of mankind?


    Just like he said, when a real crisis descended, the potential of the human race to erupt was unimaginable. No matter what, Luo Chen firmly believed in this point.


    Compared to the arachnid fanaticism, the Starfield Masters on the battleship looked a little strange.


    When Old Man Zhan Tai returned, he threw down a sentence, "Prepare for battle."


    Normally, with the prestige of a sage, everyone would definitely be prepared to fight without thinking, but at this moment, no one was moving in the hall.


    "Battle? You want me to die? No way!" A cold snort broke the silence in the hall.


    Kong Yun coldly looked at the person who was speaking, but it was an old man with a short stature.


    Kong Yun had a slight impression of this person. It seemed that he was the Federation Leader of a remote star region. Most of the reason why he joined this reinforcement was to obtain merit points.


    At that time, in order to gather people to help Kong Yun and the others as soon as possible, Old Man Zhan Tai had offered a high price. The amount of resources that could be exchanged for military merits was far more than they could normally earn.


    "Nine out of ten of the arachnids are still alive. Dean Zhan Tai''s condition is unknown at the moment. With our strength, we really can''t deal with them." Someone echoed. Although he wasn''t as direct as the short old man had said, the meaning behind his words was very obvious.


    The Starfield Lords nodded their heads slightly as they thought the same thing in their hearts.


    Kong Yun sighed in his heart. This was the weakness of humans.


    Perhaps these Starfield Lords were once heroic experts. They dared to attack stronger enemies, and dared to search for ways to be stronger between life and death.


    However, after bing a master, thefortable and affluent life wore away their willpower, and the worship and submission from the weak made them feel iparably satisfied.


    These were all factors that prevented them from bing stronger, and naturally became the reason why they were "afraid of death".


    But in other words, how many people were able to escape from it and unswervingly walk on their own path?


    But do these guys really have brains?


    "Do you think you can survive without fighting?" Kong Yun''s voice was iparably cold. He naturally wouldn''t give such a fellow a good look.


    "That arachnid is powerful. You can''t beat it, so you can run past it?"


    "Alright, even if you have any secret arts or magic treasures that can escape quickly, there''s a saying on Earth that says that there areplete eggs under the nest. If this The universe is taken over by the arachnids, with their terrifying reproduction abilities, where do you think you will find shelter?"


    Kong Yun said with a look of disdain.


    The short old man''s face turned red from what he said, but he didn''t dare to refute it. After all, Kong Yun''s strength in the battle against Sang Bailun was too strong. He was already in a leading position amongst the crowd, so how could he possibly resist it?


    But in the end, the old man couldn''t help but say, "I can''t beat you again and again, I can''t run. Are we waiting here to die?"


    "Who said you can''t run?" Kong Yun suddenly smiled. After seeing the old man''s wonderful expression, he continued, "Can we fight before? We have to fight before we know that Luo Chen, who is as strong as the Fire Sage, is also parasitized by the arachnids. Since they have a way to do it, maybe we can give it a try."


    "Furthermore, we are not a single-minded arachnid. If we really cannot resist the arachnid army, it is not impossible to resist the arachnid in the deeper regions if we abandon some of the star systems."


    "But no matter what, gathering strength and retreating while fighting is the best way to reduce casualties. It''s better than escaping and being defeated by the enemy."


    Kong Yun''s words caused the crowd to sink into deep thought. Although they had never heard of the plete eggs under the nest", they knew that once the arachnids broke through the human defense line, even if they managed to escape, they would only be able to live for a while longer.


    Moreover, as long as there was a sliver of chance, who would be willing to leave this ce with the reputation of "deserter"?


    Kong Yun sighed helplessly as he looked at the group of experts who were deep in thought. His words had already reached this point. If they still hadn''t opened their minds, there was nothing he could do about it.


    "Fight as you please. Who''s afraid of who? At most, death! I, Hu Feng, have never been afraid of death!"


    Tyrant Tiger Hu Feng picked up the giant hammer and suddenly shouted.


    Kong Yun looked at him speechlessly. If he didn''t know who was so scared that he threw away his weapon just now…


    However, with this loud roar, many Starfield Masters were infected by him. Kong Yun could clearly feel that they had regained their fighting spirit and were even more vigorous than before.


    After all, in the past, they were fighting for military merits or others, but now, all the experts were fighting for themselves!


    Hu Feng was somewhat satisfied with the effect of his roar. Just as he was about to say something, the fleet suddenly let out an rm.


    On the screen in the middle of the hall, countless arachnids swarmed out of the wormholes. They were faster than they had imagined!


    Kong Yun teleported out of the battleship in a blink of an eye. Because the numbers were toorge, he could even see the dense mass of arachnids with his naked eyes.


    A robot with a long sword appeared beside Kong Yun. Xiao Xing was summoned by him. It looked like the shape of the sword was exactly the same as the Lightning Tribtion Sword.


    Before he couldin about this fellow''s new appearance, Kong Yun asked seriously, "How is the warship?"


    This time, the reinforcements brought arge amount of military supplies, including the materials needed to perfect the warship. During this period of time, Xiao Xing had been improving the facilities on the warship.


    "Apart from the main cannon''s time, the other facilities have been prepared. The number of flying swords has reached three million!"


    When he said "three million", Xiao Xing proudly raised his little face.


    Kong Yun was shocked by this number. ording to his imagination, 1 million was the limit of AI maniption. He didn''t expect Xiao Xing to directly create 3 million.


    Seemingly sensing Kong Yun''s thoughts, Xiao Xing suddenly had two more balls of white light in his hand. "ording to my calctions, three million is more suitable for the operation of the sword formation. In order to be able to perfectly control these three million flying swords, I found two more helpers."


    After Kong Yun finished speaking, these two balls of white light were actually two other AIs. They could be called''helpers'' by Xiao Xing. Obviously, their levels weren''t too low.


    Kong Yun trusted Xiao Xing very much. Since it said that it could, then it naturally had its reasons.


    "Prepare for battle."


    "Directly activate the maximumbat mode. You only need to deal with ordinary arachnids. If you encounter a humanoid arachnid, use the sword formation to dy as much as possible."


    "If you find a human warrior that you can save, save him as much as you can."


    …


    The following battles were bound to be extremely dangerous as Kong Yun quickly gave out one order after another. He probably didn''t have the energy to distract himself frommanding the battleship.


    Everything depended on Xiao Xing''s own judgement.


    "Yes!" It was unknown when the ball of light had been put away by Xiao Xing and reced by the "Shanzhai" Lightning Tribtion Sword.


    Xiao Xing, who was holding the Lightning Tribtion Sword high, looked very heroic.
