Chapter 179: Chapter 145 Scarlet War_2
“Retreat!!!”
The Cabal fleet began to evacuate. Faced with the wrath of the Tribunal, these treacherous and despicable aliens had no resistance whatsoever. They were scared to their wits’ end and almost vanished into the distant sky in total disarray.
“Humph……”
Watching the last Cabal warship that failed to escape and was blown into fireworks in the sky, Duanmu Huai let out a cold snort. At this moment, the entire combat command room was silent. Everyone stared wide-eyed at the battlefield before them – it was the first time the girls had witnessed a battle between universes so closely. Although they knew that the warship under their feet must be extremely powerful, they had never expected the power of this warship to far exceed their imaginations.
“I never imagined that this warship could be so formidable.”
Ann couldn’t help but express her awe, and Greiya nodded vigorously in agreement.
“Yes, if it’s the Evil Dragon Fafner, I fear there would be nothing left but remnants in the face of this warship…”
“The power of an individual is indeed mighty, but the strength of mechanical power should not be overlooked.”
Duanmu Huai casually uttered a comment before turning around.
“Alright, let’s go take a look in that city.”
When Duanmu Huai and the rest had arrived at the high tower which was almost in ruins on the Night Raven Black Star, a group of people were already waiting for them.
And standing in the forefront was a muscular bald man, by his side, a bald woman and a robot.
It’s been a long time indeed.
Seeing three familiar faces, Duanmu Huai revealed a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth. He then led the girls out of the gunboat to meet them.
Seeing Duanmu Huai’s appearance, those in front of him were somewhat apprehensive, but soon, the leading bald man stepped forward and bowed to Duanmu Huai.
“Greetings, visitors from another planet. I am Savara, a Titan mentor from the High Tower Council. Thank you very much for your assistance.”
” No need to be polite.”
As Duanmu Huai examined the small mechanical jewelry-like object floating beside Savara, he answered casually.
“As a member of the Tribunal, it is my duty to eliminate aliens that threaten the existence of humans.”
“Tribunal…..”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hearing Duanmu Huai’s words, Savara paused, then his expression turned serious.
“If possible, could you please explain in more detail?”
“Of course.”
Duanmu Huai nodded, then glanced at the huge white sphere floating in the sky above the city. Following that, he proceeded to enter the high tower with Savara and the others.
During their journey, Duanmu Huai reminisced about the information he had previously seen on a forum regarding the Guardian civilization.
The rise of the Guardian civilization is inextricably linked to a mysterious entity, which is the large white sphere that resembles a moon and hovers over the city. People call it the Traveler – no one knows where this mysterious entity comes from. However, according to historical records unearthed by players, the Traveler has been wandering around the Milky Way, bringing prosperity and evolution to the civilizations it encounters.
The humans of this galaxy met the Traveler as a result of observing this mysterious entity and discovered its ability to transform barren planets into lush ecological worlds filled with the sounds of birds and the fragrance of flowers. Subsequently, humans welcomed the Traveler to their home planet. With the help of the Traveler, they began to develop at an accelerated pace and even reached parts of the Golden Age level within their galaxy.
However, this good fortune did not last long. Not long afterward, a dark force pursuing the Traveler attacked the human world. The human world had no resistance against the invasion of this dark force and almost crumbled into dust. The Traveler, sensing danger, also planned to flee. Luckily, Rasputin, the battle mind created by humans, had anticipated this. Before the Traveler could escape, it gathered all its defense weapons, directly paralyzed the Traveler’s power system, forcing the Traveler to stay and fight this terrifying dark force alongside the humans.
If they couldn’t withstand the attack, at least they could take down some enemies before their inevitable deaths. It was a fair trade.
Well… Although this way was somewhat underhanded… They did a splendid job.
In the end, the Traveler had no choice but to unleash its power and repel the incoming darkness. However, human society was completely destroyed, and the Traveler, after repelling the darkness, fell into a slumber.
Afterward, countless small machines emerged from the slumbering Traveler. They were known as the Ingenuity. These machines wandered around the galaxy, looking for people with an affinity for Light Energy, scanning and rebuilding their bones.
Yes, as a matter of fact, almost all Guardians were dead people resurrected by Ingenuity. Of course, they would lose their pre-death memories but retain common knowledge such as language. Moreover, after being revived, these Guardians possessed a superpower known as Light Energy.
Later, the resurrected Guardians gathered the remaining survivors and built this Holy City beneath the Traveler. It could be said this was the only shelter for the humans of this galaxy.
The High Tower Council ruled this city, composed of the three Guardians who served as mentors: Titan mentor Savara, magician mentor Ikora, and hunter mentor Cade.
Here, special mention must be made of Cade.
This talkative fellow, who seemed like a robot, was one of the relics from the Golden Age of the humans of this galaxy. As previously mentioned, when any civilization reaches a certain height, they will inevitably pursue immortality. The humans here were no exception. They foolishly created a technology that transplants human thought into machine bodies, eventually creating a mechanical race with human thinking – the EXO.
Well, as you can see, the Space Undead are not the only idiots in this universe who turned themself into mechanical skeletons.
In the drawing room, Duanmu Huai briefed them on the current situation of the Milky Way galaxy, including the collapse and destruction of the Imperial, the scattering of human civilization, the Chaos Evil Gods, and the Subspace… Needless to say, everyone was astonished after listening to Duanmu Huai’s introduction.
Savara sat there blankly without saying a word. As for the magician mentor next to him, Ikora, he put down his teacup, forced himself to calm down, and looked at Duanmu Huai.
“So… Your Honor, the Judge, you came here to… revive the Imperial?”
“Of course not.”
Duanmu Huai shook his head.
“If the Law Department or the High Lord Council still existed, that would be their task. The Tribunal’s task has always been singular, to protect human civilization and eliminate all threats to human civilization, no matter what they are. We are not interested in the control or dominance of civilization. You just need to not betray human civilization or conspire with the Evil Gods, then we would have no action.”
“Ah, the Guardians of humans.”
Cade was cracking melon seeds, his electronic eyes staring at Duanmu Huai. As for whether a robot needs to eat melon seeds or not, that’s another question. And whether the remaining seeds would get stuck in its crucial parts, that’s an even different question.
“Regardless of your reasons for coming, we have to express our gratitude. Otherwise, we may have had to abandon this city… ”
“Thud, thud, thud.”
However, just at this moment, suddenly, a rushed knock sounded. Everyone turned their heads to see a staff member, panting, rushed in.
“I’m sorry to interrupt, mentors.”
He was pale, drenched in sweat.
“But we received a message from the Cabal that I think you all should see.”
