Chapter 581: Shadow of Azure Dragon
Those were all vehicles for X-class life forms, with various logos on the metal shells proving their identities.
“…Black Hole Palace…”
"Twilight Hermit Church..."
"Giant Shield Company...Giant Mercenary Group..."
People in the channel kept taking inventory, gasping for air but also becoming more and more excited.
It’s not easy to meet so many important people on ordinary days.
In Gustav's ship "Silent Night", most of the members came here in the form of virtual projections, gathering in groups of three or two.
"I estimate that over 95% of the media in the entire galaxy is here." A virtual projection leaned against the window, hinting, "This is quite a big commotion. The recent events may have stimulated the three major civilizations."
"What happened some time ago", although it was not stated explicitly, everyone knew what it meant, which was nothing more than supporting Qinglong.
However, this time he didn't wear a mask and spoke in a veiled manner.
"Alas... the three great civilizations are clearly trying to step on us," someone said gravely. "If they hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that our council is completely occupied by people from the three great civilizations."
"In the end, the three major civilizations have the final say."
"It's not the first day we've heard about this, why are you reacting so strongly?" Senier covered her mouth and chuckled, shaking her wine glass in her hand.
"Anyway, we're used to being oppressed. If the three great civilizations come down with a slap, we have to take it obediently."
She looked around. "Or, who can take the lead and make a rule that X-level life forms officially cultivated by each civilization are not allowed to join the Higher Life Forms Union, or at least prevent them from serving as council members?"
Everyone who met her gaze had a wandering look in their eyes. Senel couldn't help but sneer, "What else is there to say?"
Senier's words were so harsh that someone couldn't help but ask, "Your Excellency seems to be a member of the organization, right?"
"Yeah, I'm also a mobster." Senier admitted frankly, choking the other party so much that he couldn't speak and could only snort coldly.
"I don't know whether Lord Qinglong will show up. After all, this incident was caused by him." A voice came from the corner of the room.
"Because of him?" Anduin, who had arrived earlier but remained silent, sneered. "Some of us want to use the Azure Dragon as a banner, wanting to demonstrate against the three major civilizations, but we're afraid to do so."
"It really caused a strong reaction from them, and they blamed it on Qinglong, tsk tsk..."
"This was decided a long time ago, it's just been hyped up a lot." Anatoly said in a flat tone.
The atmosphere feels a bit strange, and Seniel's style is not like before.
Anduin's attitude was also very tough. Although Perkins remained silent, he was full of murderous intent.
He stressed that "nothing can be accomplished overnight. There will inevitably be various obstacles. We are not in a hurry."
"The dispute between Azure Dragon and the three major civilizations is limited to them, and our personal relationship with Azure Dragon is also limited to us."
As soon as he finished speaking, a series of voices of agreement rang out. Most people still subconsciously resisted and fought against the three major civilizations.
Anduin laughed out loud. This group of people were not in a hurry. Even if the three major civilizations were really angry, the worst that could happen was that they could just step aside and watch.
"People from the three major civilizations are coming...tsk, they're coming together." Senil walked to the porthole with a smile on her face.
Everyone looked subconsciously and saw warships passing through the cleared channel, protecting the largest large armed flagship in the center.
The warships around were decorated with the logos of the Empire, the Federation and the Covenant, causing bursts of exclamations.
"Wow...whoever said it was right. The three great civilizations have truly come together. The so-called struggle isn't groundless..."
"After all the fighting, we're the ones who suffer. They formed a coalition of higher life forms out of nowhere. Are they good people?"
"When it comes to a joint organization of higher life forms, the three major civilizations must be united in their stance. Their combined presence will serve as a deterrent."
As soon as this matter was announced, various experts jumped out to analyze it.
All the big names in the interstellar world have different opinions.
But the general speculation is that there must be conflicts between the three major civilizations and the joint organization of higher life forms.
Some well-informed people even learned that this matter was even related to Qinglong.
However, there is too little relevant information and it has not attracted more attention.
In the joint command ship, the advanced life forms of the three major civilizations who were designated to replace the challenge targets gathered here.
Because this matter also involves Qinglong to some extent.
Therefore, the three commanders, Kostat, Heins and Schmidt, are also here to provide strategic guidance.
Knox stood three meters tall, a chill emanating from his shimmering blue skin, causing the temperature control equipment in the command room to whirl at high speed. He peered through the porthole at the top-tier battleships and said, "They're here early."
"What difference does it make whether it's sooner or later? It's a defeat in the end." Someone laughed faintly behind him.
"Don't take it lightly." Knox turned around and asked, "What if Qinglong intervenes?"
The man who spoke suddenly froze.
After the Holy Castle incident, no one could face Qinglong without changing their expression.
"Qinglong..." Costat's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but look over. "He probably won't come. There's no point in him coming here."
"He can't possibly help those people defeat you. It would be too embarrassing and unconvincing."
"If he really comes, it will be a good thing. I'm worried that I can't find him." Hines said coldly, but did not continue.
The other people's expressions changed slightly, and they looked at each other, as if they had figured out something.
"Today, we have only one goal, and that is to severely humiliate this rabble," Hines said in a deep voice, "Let them understand that the three great civilizations will always loom large over them."
Everyone nodded.
"It's almost time, who's going to start first?" Costat looked over.
"I'll go first..." Knox said calmly, "I remember that Anduin and Qinglong seemed to have a good personal relationship."
"Haha..." Hines laughed and said sternly, "That's right, we need to pick out a typical example."
When Knox's figure floated out of the cabin.
In the Silent Night, everyone's eyes were focused on Anduin.
There wasn't much surprise in his eyes, but rather a hint of pity.
The Lord of the Star Gate, these words are at least well-known, and he rarely has friction with others in normal times, but now he has to face a battle that is bound to be lost.
The few life forms that had conflicts and frictions with Anduin could not help but feel a bit gloating, and ultimately did not think that they were a whole.
Noticing everyone's surprised looks, Anduin remained expressionless, his virtual projection disappeared, and he flew out of his vehicle.
In the center, an extremely vast area has been reserved, surrounded by meteorite rings and scattered with several barren planets. It is almost the entire galaxy range, enough to support the fight between the two.
The spacecraft that can arrive here in a short time are all very impressive. They have already set up various cutting-edge observation instruments and are full of expectations.
"You should actually just admit defeat to avoid further humiliation." Knox's mental fluctuations surged, his face calm.
"Do you think you are sure to win?" Anduin sneered.
"What else?" Knox responded by clashing his fists, and a pair of ice-blue arm armor emerged, covering his arms.
At the same time, ice crystal armor grew wildly from his pores, and the white mist he exhaled spread wildly, and the scattered meteorite belts turned into countless suspended ice prisms.
When his right foot shattered the void, spider-web-like ice marks spread rapidly.
As soon as he said he would do it, he did it.
Anduin is considered a "mage", and if he is attacked by a "warrior", he will definitely not be able to fight.
This kind of battle in a limited area and time is a natural disadvantage for Anduin.
And by the porthole of an inconspicuous spaceship, a silver-white mecha stood there. It was the mecha that Li Ming possessed.
Using this method, almost no one could notice, and he had a panoramic view of the situation at the scene. "Let's take a look at the situation first..."
Bang!
The distance between the two was not far, and Knox was already close, raising his hand and punching.
Anduin's heart skipped a beat, and a star-patterned staff appeared in his hand. Fluorescence appeared on the surface of his body, and his entire body was covered with a robe.
The energy shield that was barely holding on was hit by the ice fist. The fragments that splashed out of the cracks condensed into a rain of ice spikes in the air and shot back, piercing Anduin's body, but only the shadows dissipated.
"I'm just Qinglong's pawn. Do you really think it's an honor to be associated with him?"
Knox was not surprised by the failure of the attack, and he did not hide his mental fluctuations.
Although he spoke arrogantly, his face showed no expression as he faithfully completed his task of "suppression".
Even the spectators farther away could hear it and couldn't help but talk about it, wondering how this matter was related to Qinglong.
Then, Knox inserted his arms into the void and pulled out two ice dragons hundreds of thousands of meters long from the cracks. They swept across and the extremely cold blue-white frost mist swallowed up the area like a giant beast.
Knox's attack was quick and urgent.
Anduin responded hastily, and a large number of crisscrossing energy lines surged around him, but they were submerged and frozen by the ice fog.
But he wiped his left hand from the corner of his mouth, a flash of blood passed by, and then he pressed it on the frozen rune array around him. The spell under the ice layer suddenly reversed, transforming the absorbed extreme cold into a dark blue flame!
Just as Knox was about to deliver another blow, burning ice cracks suddenly appeared under his feet, and the reversed cold energy was flowing back up along the veins of his ice armor.
Anduin shattered the frozen staff, and the crimson runes at its core merged into icy flames.
The entire ice fog battlefield began to resonate, and Knox's ice crystal armor exploded uncontrollably, with each fragment turning into barbs and piercing back into the body.
When Anduin tore apart the last freezing seal, the accumulated extreme cold energy turned into a giant frost sword, which was about to pierce Nox on the glacial throne that emerged behind him.
boom!
Knox's pupils shrank into needles, his body expanded rapidly, his muscles became more like lava, and fine red-gold lines cracked on the surface of his skin.
Red-gold flames gushed out of his pores, and he entered a liberated form.
"This..." Anduin was shocked. "How could it evolve to such an extreme?"
Knox crushed the glacial throne, and the ice fragments exploding under his feet drew a burning track in the vacuum.
The moment his right fist was swung out, the space in front cracked like glass, and the attacking giant frost sword shattered into pieces.
"Although Knox is a frost giant, his evolutionary path is not simply to strengthen the ice attribute. If you really think that he is only good at ice attribute... hehe..." Schmidt said with a faint smile.
The others were also surprised and felt a little apprehensive.
Hines cheered, "Let others see what happens if you get close to Qinglong!"
Costat frowned slightly, then said, "Who's next? Get ready, it's almost over."
"Knox actually has this trick up his sleeve." Anatoly frowned. There was a noticeable silence in the cabin. Everyone looked at each other in surprise. This was the foundation of the three major civilizations.
The onlookers were naturally extremely excited. This magnificent scene was dazzling and amazing.
"I remember that Knox was born an ice giant, and he can even evolve in reverse..." Li Ming was quite surprised.
It can be seen that Anduin has made careful preparations and can even use the ice energy for his own benefit.
However, Knox's genetically liberated form expanded further, no longer using ice attacks as its primary means, catching him off guard.
Knowing that it would be too late if he didn't take action, he switched to [Star of Eternal Silence] with a slight movement in his heart.
In the field, Knox's energy radiation was comparable to that of a star in the radar spectrum, and his spiritual fluctuations were as surging as the sea.
"You work so hard for Qinglong, but he doesn't do anything for you. Is it possible that he gives you some benefits to make you willing to give?"
However, the moment he raised his hand, his body suddenly stiffened, the red-gold flames surging around him stagnated, and he felt as if he was stuck in a quagmire.
Everything around him was speeding up, but his every move was suppressed by the overwhelming force, like a corpse worm solidified in amber.
how so?
Knox was shocked and realized instantly that this was a time suppression force field. He was stunned.
Anduin's attainment in time has reached such a level that it can have such a big impact on me?
Anduin immediately noticed something was wrong and sensed the changes in time parameters. He immediately thought of the Star of Eternal Silence.
When he recalled what Qinglong had told him - "No matter what happens to the other party, you should take the responsibility yourself."
Qinglong is indeed reliable.
He was faintly excited in his heart, and his reaction was also very fast. His mental fluctuations were boiling, and his expression was indifferent: "Too much nonsense. What do you think I have been waiting for so long for?"
Anduin tore the pendant on his chest into pieces. Twelve burning rune cores danced in his palm. He used blood as ink to draw a spiral sigil in the void.
At the same time, the melted ice water turned into red chains, crisscrossing and binding Knox.
He clenched his teeth, but due to the different speeds of time flowing in different parts of his body, the energy flows could not be connected and were even rioting, making it difficult to put up any effective resistance.
The vast spiritual power surged like the waves, and Anduin looked indifferent.
"I am the Lord of the Star Gate and the Master of All Laws. I will not allow you or anyone else to tell me what to do!"
At this moment, the huge seal that Anduin drew in the void with blood finally took shape. The twelve rings were dazzling, and the nested rune formations fell, cutting the battlefield into independent areas.
Then, the entire rune array began to collapse towards where Knox was.
The gap between the two was not that big to begin with. Knox had more of an advantage in the evolutionary system, but now he had become a sitting duck. It was difficult for him to withstand Anduin's ultimate move relying solely on his physical strength.
His body gradually stiffened, his knuckles twisted in the collapsing force field, and the red-gold lines on his skin flickered.
The whole body was like clay being kneaded by an invisible giant hand, and finally it was twisted into a twist shape!
