Within the Yun Mo planet control room, when they heard what elder Si Fan Qi said, they were all silent.
Luo Feng couldn’t help but recall the scene of what happened on the capital planet. When the mother nest and the large amount of bug soldiers first appeared, just the energy released by the close to 10,000 undyings, it immediately caused the entire planet to explode.
Destroying an entire planet was an extremely hard thing to do.
Even though at sector lord level, one move could cause mass extinction on a life planet, that was only destruction on the surface, the planet itself would still survive.
As for an undying, they too needed to put all their energy in one strike to be able to destroy a planet.
And there were simply too many bug soldiers. With all of them gathered, just the energy that erupted from them created that shocking effect.
"Just now, that one move actually destroyed an area with a diameter of 10,000 km." Luo Feng emphasized.
"It was very strong."
Dylan said softly, "Even if they coordinated well, for thousands of undying to accurately and simultaneously attack, making all of them precisely gather at one point…none of them can have even a little bit of error. Even if done well, out of ten thousand times, maybe one would succeed. However…the moment it does…with the attack of thousands of undying, it would cause a maelstrom in the space itself, the power would be devastating. This would be akin to a universe knight."
The crowd nodded, all still reeling from before.
"The 1st thing is their consciousness has to be one." Elder Si Fan Qi said solemnly. "Second, they are not afraid of death, and third, with the bug clan mother nest controlling them through her consciousness, thousands of bug clan soldiers are able to unleash incredible law infused attacks. Just like when they were chasing me, they condensed the space around me, making me unable to teleport."
Teleportation was like a fish swimming in water.
With the space condensed, it was like turning the water to ice.
Naturally the fish cannot swim.
"They even know origin law attacks?" The armored youth Kashna said with shock.
"Of course." The 9th army leader smiled coldly. "The bug clan, as a pinnacle race like ours, they are one of the races with the biggest population, and also one that has the smallest population."
"If we count those soldiers without direction, then their numbers would be endless."
"If we don’t, just counting the highly intelligent mother nest queens, then there would only be those few. Even the most normal mother nest queen, at pinnacle maturity, they too would be sector lord level and would be able to produce large amounts of sector lord soldiers." The 9th army leader said, "Much less the undying mother nest, even if emperor level undyings encountered it, they would fall if they weren’t careful."
"The mother nest queen is highly intelligent. Its consciousness and mental capabilities are very strong. It can individually control countless soldiers, even doing precise combined attacks. Hence, you can imagine how powerful it really is."
"The bug clan all have soul imprints, one of the pinnacle races of the universe. Any queen is a master of soul techniques…this is also why it’s so hard to control a mother nest queen." The 9th army leader smiled. "And the most pinnacle of beings in the bug clan, any one of them, if they used a soul invasion technique, all of us would probably be controlled and be unable to flee."
The armored youth Kashna blinked, "That powerful?"
Everyone else glanced at him, even the 7 official level undyings of the pagoda squadron felt disgraced.
Luo Feng too glanced at him without speaking.
In regards to the power of the bug clan, his golden horned beast inherited memories had detailed records of it. A large part of his memories described the bug clan. As there were simply too much on it, Luo Feng had only browsed through the basic information. However even so, that was enough to make Luo feng feel shock and fear.
The bug clan!
Even the golden horned beast race didn’t dare mess with it, especially certain core areas of the bug clan, there lay endless seas of bug soldiers…it would easily make any warrior lose confidence.
"How did the mother nest come here? How could it dare to come here?" Luo Feng frowned. "Aren’t they afraid the warriors of earth would head over and kill it? Some of the absolute warriors of the Virtual Universe Company can completely teleport through their god countries over, and come kill it. And if the mother nest were to teleport through its god country away, it would be a good chance to confirm the location of its god country. Once that’s done, it would be killed without a doubt."
"Your majesty."
The gold armored elder’s voice was like metal clanging. "Yao Hao and Jeffrey were controlled by their souls, they may have been controlled by that mother nest from before. Once they were killed, it immediately found out and hence brought its elites and teleported over to exact its revenge!"
"As to why it dared to?"
"I guess that it didn’t use its own god country but through one of the undying’s god country. That way, even if it met the absolute beings of humanity, the queen could still take the mother nest with its soldiers and escape. Even if humans discovered the god country, it would only be that of the controlled undying, which is not a threat at all to the queen. With the undyings it controls as the stepping board, it can very safely and swiftly escape back to the bug clan region. The warriors of earth naturally wouldn’t dare invade there."
Luo Feng nodded when he heard this, after which he asked curiously, "Then, are there no threats to it? Humanity will just allow it to continue on killing?"
"Of course there are dangers." The gold armored old man laughed, "The powerful beings of humanity will leave markers throughout humanity’s territories. The moment a big threat like the bug clan mother nest appears at one spot, those beings would immediately teleport over! With their overwhelming power, they would kill the mother nest."
"Of course!"
"Killing it would be somewhat difficult However even if they don’t kill it, they would have a guarantee of killing a large amount of undying bug soldiers. Afterall…creating an undying bug soldier is not easy." The gold armored elder shook his head and smiled, "That queen before had to dig up a lot of her army just to come over."
…
After a while.
The atmosphere within the control room had lightened a little. The mother nest, which was an extremely dangerous threat, had made the group not want to discuss it any further. Afterall, against such a being, one at least had to be emperor level undying to fight back.
"9th army leader, how’s the situation with the army?" Luo Feng looked at the 9th army leader.
"I’m currently contacting the other undyings controlling the 30 interstellar battleships through the virtual universe." The 9th army leader was obviously affected, his voice was hoarse, "Right now the situation isn’t fully confirmed. Your majesty Luo Feng, please wait a while as I check with the other undyings. The report will be out soon and I’ll relay it to you." After which, he closed his eyes.
After a while.
He opened his eyes.
"How is it?" Luo Feng asked.
"The losses are huge." His face was ashen. "When the mother nest and undying army first appeared through the god country, the energy that erupted from them caused the entire capital planet to explode. The large amounts of universe level, domain lord level and few sector lords engaged in the mission all died instantly.
Luo Feng was silent.
During that first explosion, it wasn’t just the large amount of soldiers that died, even all the countless innocent civilians all died.
Over 10 billion people just died like that.
"And after that when the mother nest ordered the combined attack, causing a maelstrom in space and explosions within the fabric of space itself, an area with a diameter of 10 million km was laid to waste. Those lucky few sector lords that dodged the 1st shockwave, at least those still outside the ships, when this 2nd wave hit, they were all definitely killed." The 9th army leader said.
"Even those that were in the interstellar battleships initially, and those universe soldiers fast enough to return to them." The 9th army leader shook his head, "When the 2nd wave of shockwaves hit, amidst the explosions in space and maelstrom, even normal undyings would die from such a hit. Even those hiding within the ships…just the tremors from the powerful shockwaves alone caused a large amount of universe level soldiers to be reduced to heaps of flesh, dying instantly. The domain lords may be heavily injured, but their life cores didn’t break, just wounded."
"All 30 interstellar battle ships all escaped via universe travel, no one chased them."
"The mother nest was probably aiming for us leaders."
"In summary."
"30 interstellar battle ships, 28 undyings, 1,923 sector lords, 5,990 domain lords and 0 universe level soldiers survived." The 9th army leader’s face was ashen as he reported.
This report made Luo Feng go silent for quite awhile.
Heavy losses!
30 interstellar battle ships, they originally had 30 undyings, 3,000 sector lords, 30,000 domain lords and 300,000 universe level soldiers.
However from that one attack, all the universe level soldiers died from the subsequent shockwaves. Even those hiding within the ships, they were still killed by the space maelstrom and fabric explosions!
As very few of the targets were sector lords, they didn’t really need to head out. So, other than a small team, large amounts of sector lords stayed within their ships. Hence, more than half of them survived!
As most of the domain lords were sent out to hunt the targets, hence only about 1/5th of them survived!
Universe level, all dead!
"How did we lose the two undyings?" Dylan asked.
"According to the survivors, when the 30 interstellar battle ships were in the space above the planet, a large amount of universe soldiers were hunting the targets. There were two undyings that left the ships too." The 9th army leader sighed, "When the bug clan mother nest teleported over, as we have too many strong warriors gathered here, it first attacked those two undyings."
Everybody nodded.
They were indeed the most number of powerful warriors here. The 9th army leader, the 7 official level undyings of the pagoda squadron, Long Chi Er, Dylan, the emperor level Si Fan Qi. This power, even if the bug clan mother nest sent out an army and the two of them clashed, many of the bug soldiers would be sacrificed before they could kill all of them. Hence, to instantly attack this group here with soul techniques…wasn’t realistic at all.
"This mission." Luo Feng forced a smile.
"9th army leader." Luo Feng suddenly thought of the other 70 army groups, asking, "How’s the result of the other 70 groups engaged in their hunting missions?"
