Chapter 26: Rising Storm

Two minutes later, the divine messenger returned to his seat, glancing left and right as if trying to glean something from Yasuo and Zhang Xiaoyu's faces.

"My Lord, what's wrong?" Zhang Xiaoyu asked, looking puzzled.

"Yasuo, what on earth is going on?!" the divine messenger roared in fury.

"My Lord, what's wrong?" Yasuo seemed aggrieved.

"Where did the interstellar portal near the sun go? Was that your doing?" This time, the divine messenger wasn't angry. He stared straight at Yasuo, his voice cold and penetrating to the core.

"What?! An interstellar portal!" Yasuo and Zhang Xiaoyu exclaimed in surprise almost simultaneously.

"Yasuo, stop pretending. You guys can't be unaware of the recent divine revelations, can you?"

“My Lord, we understand, but we don’t know how to create a portal.”

"How foolish!" the divine messenger said, somewhat angrily.

"By the way, My Lord, is it possible that the Martians discovered the portal yesterday, and then..." Yasuo glanced at Zhang Xiaoyu.

"Impossible. A portal can only be discovered if it's activated. Yasuo, it must be you. I'm very disappointed." As soon as he finished speaking, the messenger disappeared again.

Zhang Xiaoyu also disappeared, and Yasuo immediately issued an order to prepare for battle!

One minute later, the divine messenger warship arrived in near-Earth orbit around the planet. A large fleet of the Celestial Beings had already been activated. Four or five minutes later, the divine messenger warship was surrounded by more than three million Celestial Being warships.

On Earth, a fleet of over 2000 cruiser motherships set sail, heading towards the divine envoy's warship. The remaining two million warships of the Celestial Race hurriedly intercepted them. The divine envoy was overjoyed to see the Martian warship approaching his own.

"Yasuo, you might as well surrender. Even if you rely on your home planet, how can you escape the attack of me and the Martians?"

Just as Yasuo was fretting over his situation, he suddenly received a secret letter: "Your Majesty Yasuo, we have concluded a peace and friendship agreement. We will work together to deal with her. Zhang Xiaoyu."

"All fleets, fire on the divine messenger's warship!" Yasuo roared, his eyes seemingly filled with rage.

"All fleets, fire on the Divine Envoy warship echelon!" Yasuo seemed to hear Zhang Xiaoyu's roar in the encrypted channel.

"You're courting death!" the divine messenger roared in fury.

The silver-white warship emitted a ring of white light and suddenly disappeared. The nuclear missiles and electromagnetic cannon shells that the fleet fired at the divine envoy warship also vanished into the bottomless abyss.

The Earth Federation fleet knew that the divine messenger was repeating the same trick, so it did not waste lasers, light spheres, or gravity bombs, but only symbolically fired electromagnetic cannons.

Suddenly, the divine messenger warship reappeared in the same spot, along with the missing nuclear bombs and electromagnetic cannon shells. They then flew towards the Tiancan warship and the Earth fleet, and the Earth warship quickly retreated.

In that instant, the divine messenger warship emitted dazzling beams of light from all parts of its hull, shooting wildly in all directions. Those celestial warships that could not dodge in time, even those protected by shields, were pierced through and then exploded violently.

Even more deadly was the fact that the divine messenger warships moved at nearly two-thirds the speed of light in this space, rapidly weaving through the Celestial Being warships. The blinding beams of light emanating from their hulls were incredibly precise, calculated with perfect spatial angles, relative speeds, and flight times. This scene was nothing short of a massacre. Ultimately, forced into a desperate situation, the Celestial Being fleet resorted to haphazard, indiscriminate firing, with many nuclear bombs and lasers landing on friendly ships, resulting in even greater losses.

The Earth-based human fleet has already withdrawn to the vicinity of the moon, all warships of the Earth Federation fleet are on high alert, and more than 600,000 flying saucers stored on the moon are also ready for deployment. This time, it seems that Earth-based humanity has made a desperate gamble.

The more than one million Celestial warships that luckily escaped from the front lines, plus the two million warships that abandoned their interception of the Earth fleet, totaling more than three million warships, quickly retreated to their home planet under Yasuo's orders.

Yasuo had already ordered the activation of ground-based anti-aircraft firepower, ground-based laser systems, and all the new robot armies, preparing for a desperate battle.

Inside the powerful divine messenger warship, an unexpected change had occurred.

Inside the divine envoy warship, the primordial replicants, who had been concealing themselves and devouring metal objects in non-functional and non-critical areas of the warship, had, after more than half a year of secret infiltration and self-replication, reached a terrifying number. When Zhang Xiaoyu secretly touched his ring, a certain part of the replicants was activated, and they all went berserk, rapidly devouring metal from the warship's critical areas, such as the weapon and power zones. These replicants simultaneously devoured and replicated themselves.

After swiftly destroying a large number of the Celestial Beings' warships, the divine messenger received a warning that the warships had been invaded. Through monitoring, the messenger saw that every section of the warships was filled with terrifying beetles, the same color as the ships, moving at high speeds. Wherever the beetles went, they spewed out large amounts of metal and continuously replicated themselves, their numbers rapidly increasing along the way. Alarms blared continuously throughout the warships.

In the warship's control room, the divine messenger frowned, seemingly having made up his mind. He pointed to the optical screen, bringing up a red-looking button, which he then pressed.

In a certain isolated area of ​​the warship, a large number of robots resembling divine messengers and a vast array of imposing intelligent mechs were activated, leaping out of the isolation gates in rows and heading towards the replicants. The robots and mechs unleashed their full firepower, relentlessly shattering the replicants row by row. However, the shattered fragments of the replicants spontaneously linked together, self-assembling, self-repairing, and self-replicating, returning to their original state after a few seconds, then overlapping with the replicants behind them and charging forward again. The light particle projectiles from the robots and mechs formed a light curtain of fire, temporarily halting the replicants' advance.

Although the robots and mechs had a fierce firepower advantage, the replicators were too numerous and could regenerate after being destroyed, thus devouring the metal of the warship's walls and ground. The replicators were so fast that the warship's ground was like layers of mats being rolled up, and the walls seemed to be peeled off layer by layer, with the vanished metal becoming part of the replicators themselves. The replicator army surged wave after wave, the sound of replicators gnawing on metal mingling with the sound of light particle bullets shattering replicators, like a giant shovel rapidly stirring and popping rice in a large pot.

Replicants appeared both beneath the warship's surface and on its surrounding walls. These replicants, resembling pangolins, quickly reached the feet and overhead of the robots and mechs. The robots and mechs were forced to retreat, diverting some of their forces to fight off the replicants beneath the surface and on the walls. The replicant horde drew ever closer, layer upon layer, growing ever higher, until finally, like a tsunami, it surged towards the robots and mechs like a tidal wave. The light barrier formed by the robots and mechs' particle projectiles had gaps; most replicants were temporarily extinguished upon impact, but many managed to penetrate the barrage and quickly engulf the robots and mechs. Soon, the replicants clung to the robots and mechs, relentlessly devouring them. The robots and mechs were gradually shrunk into small clumps, which suddenly burst open, spewing out even more replicants.

Such scenes were unfolding across the warships, the replicant army sweeping all before it. The divine messenger unleashed electromagnetic weapons in an attempt to interfere with or destroy the replicants, but to no avail.

The divine messenger watched as the monitoring screens went out one by one, sighed, and pressed two buttons. The first button activated the warship's teleportation portal, allowing him to be safely transferred. The second button caused the massive warship to violently self-destruct, vaporizing everything and reducing it to nothingness.

The power of this self-destruction was extremely strong. The Celestials and Earthlings clearly felt the abnormality in the sky. In an instant, a second sun appeared in the sky, even more dazzling than the five stars of Celestials.

Zhou Yuan shook his head, expressing his regret. He wished he could possess the divine envoy warship for careful study. However, he had already obtained a considerable amount of valuable information about the warship's structure and functions from the volunteer children.

The instant the divine envoy warship self-destructed, the human warships near the moon, as well as the flying saucers on the lunar surface, all activated stealthily and split into several groups, heading rapidly towards the terrestrial planet, Tensor V e.

More than three thousand flying saucers broke away from the main force and flew directly to a military base of the Celestial Beings where the teleportation portal was located.

On the planet Tian Shen Wu e, the weather suddenly changed.

The entire planet Celestial Ve is engulfed in fierce battles in space, in the air, and on the ground.

The underlying security protocols of the new robot army have been activated. The Celestials' airships, ground military bases, military industrial units, fortresses, royal palaces, and other locations are suddenly attacked by the robot army.

"Your Majesty Yasuo, something terrible has happened! The robots have rebelled! Martian warships are attacking!"

Yasuo was shocked and slumped onto his throne, the joy he had felt upon learning of the self-destruction of the divine envoy's warship completely gone.

"Shameless Martians! All warships, engage the enemy immediately! Ground forces, eliminate the robots with all your might!" Yasuo issued one order after another.

However, it was too late. The robot army had already taken control of most of the warships and armed forces. These controlled airships were quickly taken over by Earth's armed forces, while the robots waited for their rightful masters to arrive on the ground.

What frustrates the Celestials even more is that a large number of Earth warships and flying saucers have broken through the Celestials' three-dimensional air-space-ground defense perimeter and are directly eliminating dangerous units on the surface of Celestial 5e.

Although some of the Sky-Gods' warships were not under control or were not completely under control, they were continuously destroyed under the intense concentrated fire of the Earth fleet.

Although the Tian Shen people's ground forces were also very brave and powerful, they were attacked by a large number of exceptionally agile robots with magnesium-aluminum alloy shells. In addition, the flying saucers destroyed the Tian Shen people's fighter jets and armored vehicles. As a result, the Tian Shen people's ground forces lost their huge air and firepower advantages and were routed by the robot army.

More and more robots converged on the royal palace, signifying the elimination of the Celestials' military strongholds one by one. The royal palace's defensive perimeter shrank, and the warriors around King Yasuo fell one by one. Yasuo fought relentlessly to the bitter end, but ultimately could not defeat the robots and, in despair, committed suicide.

The Tiancan military base where the portal was located was breached by numerous UFOs. With the help of robots, the base was brought under control in less than half an hour, and the portal was subsequently transported to the moon.

Although there were many civilian armed forces fighting guerrilla resistance in various parts of Tiancanwu, they were quickly suppressed.

Tiancanwue was thus completely overrun.

The Tiancan people suffered heavy losses in this battle, with nearly 100 million casualties and more than 1 million warships captured.
