The distance was getting closer and closer, and when there were only 200 million kilometers left, Egbo ordered the entire army to pause but maintain power.
"How many super fleets did the other side bring?"
"There's only one train."
"You call that a train?"
On the screen, a huge metal structure spanned the starry sky, and from the perspective, it seemed to block the entire cross-section in front.
Aigbo had seen the legendary interstellar train and knew its approximate size.
But now it seems that the metal structure called a train is more like a long super fortress, and the dense firepower points on it are unreasonable.
He had a hunch that even if he sent out dozens of super fleet groups with full firepower, they would probably be able to resist and counterattack.
"Contact Chen An, my people have already gone out, who should he send?"
Soon after, a message came in, and the officer responsible for collecting intelligence replied: "It was him."
Agbo looked strange, then became excited.
"Kill the conductor and you'll get the train. If I can take that train, I'll be able to fight even the gods. Tell Adair to do your best."
Five minutes later, the battlefield, which was 200 million kilometers wide, was shrouded in light and heat, as violent as the explosion of two stars.
However, only four minutes later, Adair turned into a ball of light and shuttled to the main ship, his face pale.
"He is the eighth level of Star Devourer. I can't beat him."
When these words were spoken, the whole audience was shocked.
Especially Egbo, he opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
"As far as I know, when the train conductor arrived at the Star Sea, his strongest was only the first level of Star Devouring. It's only been about 150,000 years. How can he be at the eighth level of Star Devouring?"
All the commanders present were shocked. They had never seen a creature with such a terrifying strengthening speed.
"We do have two Yajō seniors in our rear, but it's difficult to ask them to come out. Otherwise, we should attack with our entire army and overwhelm him with numbers."
Adair immediately retorted to a certain commander's suggestion, "No, he's not as simple as Yae because he defeated me so easily and didn't even kill me. To be honest, if he wanted to kill me, I wouldn't be able to come back."
The scene was silent for a long time until a powerful deterrent came from afar.
Aigbo looked out of the porthole and saw a giant suddenly appearing at a height of one million kilometers.
His whole body erupted with a temperature of tens of millions degrees, and the resulting energy fluctuations shocked everyone. Even those at the fifth or sixth level of Star Devourer had to retreat.
"Aigbo, don't you have anyone else?" Chen An sent an electromagnetic signal, which was translated into the current official language by the battleship's intelligent computer.
Agbo was speechless, he really couldn't find a master of the same level.
After waiting for a while without any result, Chen An raised his hand and squeezed it, and a dwarf planet in a very distant place shattered in an instant.
Aigbo was horrified. "His control over space is perfect. He could probably hold his own against a Star Devourer Nine. If he's so powerful, why didn't he attack earlier? If he had, Gnut wouldn't have been able to hold out for this long."
"Sir, the train is charging."
Agbo was shocked and turned to look at the screen, which showed that the front of the train was releasing lights of various colors. This was the super energy leakage caused by the large-scale consumption of energy crystals.
"That's the train's main gun, full defense."
However, the train only made a symbolic deterrent, and when the energy was about to be fully replenished, the front of the train flexibly turned to the other side.
Fourteen seconds later, a terrifying beam of light shot out from the front of the car, and then jumped forward, forming discontinuous beams of light.
Just twenty seconds later, the energy reached a star system nine light-years away.
On the screen, Egbo and others watched intently as the galaxy collapsed, shattered, and even partially turned into nothingness under the energy impact.
After a long moment, Egbo sighed, "He's demonstrating. If this cannon were aimed at us, we would lose at least two super-fleet regiments."
…
On the Fuyao train, Chen An returned to his original form and breathed a sigh of relief.
This period of time has consumed a lot of energy and requires some time to recover.
"Brother, what a waste, why don't you just shoot them?" Qianqiu was puzzled.
Chen An said: "My goal is to force them to retreat, not to start a war. If I kill Adair, the other side may have a stronger old monster. If the main gun of the train hits their main force, it means a fight to the death. We can't end up in a dead end with the Star Alliance."
After a pause, Chen An saw that Qianqiu seemed to have realized something, so he continued, "If I kill people, I'm forcing Egbo to fight to the death. And now I've both intimidated them and avoided a war, so why not do it? As long as we delay the time, it will be easy to take down the Star Alliance in the future. Time is always what we lack the most. Fuyao, send a message to Egbo. The previous conditions are still valid. I will give him 70% of the base."
More than ten minutes later, all the warships of the Star Alliance turned around.
[Aigbo agrees to your terms and is willing to abide by the original agreement to split the land 50-50]
Chen An chuckled: "It seems he is afraid of my fickleness. If I make me unhappy, I will bomb his main star and he won't even have time to cry."
[Aigbo sent more communications, suggesting that both sides strengthen exchanges and achieve more cooperation in the future]
"Reply to him that you can cooperate, but I hope you are sincere enough."
The train converges to its initial state, becomes invisible, and leaves.
Half an hour later, Chen An met Genat in the reception hall.
"Greetings, Master Conductor. I apologize to you for the killing I did earlier."
Gnart is also a humanoid creature, but with some unusual features, such as antennae on its head and a furry tail behind its back.
"Losses are inevitable in the course of war. Are you sure you want to join the train?" Chen An asked him with narrowed eyes.
"I do."
Chen An drew out the Sword of Civilization and asked him again, "Are you sure you want to join the Fuyao Train as a passenger?"
"I wish..."
He didn't finish his words because Gnart discovered that the sword was branding his spiritual consciousness.
Once he succeeds, his identity will most likely be exposed, and he will also be subject to a lot of restrictions.
"Conductor...can you give me a little more time to think about it?"
Chen An asked with a smile: "Is the mastermind behind you the Lord of Darkness or Wu Tian?"
"What do you mean?" Gennat lowered his head, not daring to look into Chen An's eyes.
Those eyes seemed to have a powerful scanning function, making his secrets disappear.
Chen An said casually: "Wait a minute."
In his consciousness, Chen An and Fu Yao were communicating.
"I didn't expect that he had already been corrupted by the dark energy, and the control of darkness is getting stronger and stronger."
[This is Wu Tian's usual tactic, indicating that we have been completely exposed and are under Wu Tian's surveillance]
Chen An's face looked solemn.
He was not afraid of any force, nor of the emperor, but was only wary of the legendary old god, darkness.
The lifespan of the old gods is the same as the age of the universe, and no one knows how much power the darkness controls.
【Ji Ruxiao is here】
Chen An's consciousness returned to reality, and he just saw Ji Ruxiao entering the hall. A huge darkness gushed out and suppressed Genat.
Genat was shocked: "Who are you? Chen An, are you one of us? Impossible, the adults said you are an enemy of darkness."
