Time stopped at that moment.
Before the Predators could take out their weapons, the Void Cutter in Fangzheng's hand had already cut open their throats and pierced their hearts.
This was the upper limit of a mechanical civilization. The Predator mothership might be able to destroy a planet, but their physical strength determined that they were absolutely no match for Fangzheng. In fact, when Fangzheng lifted the Time Stop effect, the few Predators standing in front of the control panel had already fallen into a pool of blood and turned into corpses.
"Roar —!!"
The other Predators also reacted at that moment. They quickly turned their shoulder cannons and aimed at the Xenomorphs that were pouncing on them from all directions. But this time, the weapon that the Predators relied on didn't fire the energy cannons as they wished. Instead, after spinning a few times, it lowered its head as if it had collapsed and didn't move anymore.
The second weakness of a mechanical civilization was that it would be completely suppressed when it encountered a civilization that was far superior to itself.
Fangzheng did not know how much more advanced the Sinapus civilization, where Nimf was located, was compared to the Predators, but the fact that the little angel could hack into any terminal of the Predator network at will without being discovered, and that she could even rewrite all the terminal interfaces of the Predators and forcibly seize control of the Predator network was enough to tell the truth.
Fangzheng had once asked Nimf this question. At that time, the little angel told him disdainfully that if human technology in this world was in the Stone Age, then the Predators would at most be in the era of the steam engine, while Sinapus … had even eliminated nuclear fusion.
In fact, the moment the battle began, Nimf had already seized control of the entire Predator mothership through the Predator network. At the same time, all the technological weapons of the Predators had been taken offline, which meant that the Predators had been forced to disarm themselves. They had no other choice but to fight with cold weapons. Sheyan did not know whether Nimf's skill could only be used in a small area or if it could destroy the entire Predator network, but at least for now, it was enough.
The overall failure of the system was obviously beyond the Predators' expectations. Not only could they not use the shoulder cannons to fight, but even their invisibility ability had been blocked. This sudden attack obviously left the Predators at a loss. However, the combat races weren't just for show. After realizing that their shoulder cannons couldn't be used, they immediately picked up their weapons and tried to retaliate, but they were too late.
The Xenomorphs that had been modified by Fangzheng weren't as weak as they were in the past. When facing the Predators, they would first stab them with their needles, followed by a flick of their tails. If they were still alive, they would immediately pounce forward and open their mouths to bite. The long-range, mid-range, and close-range attacks weren't something those primitive aberrations could compare to.
Not to mention, Fangzheng was still taking advantage of the situation. While the Xenomorphs attacked the remaining Predators, Fangzheng sheathed his sword and pointed at the Predator in front of him. Immediately after, dozens of light bullets erupted from his fingertips, turning into a howling storm that shot towards the enemy in front of him.
Magic Missile Storm!
In the main world, this was something that a level-3 mage could be immune to with a magic shield. But against these Predators who had neither invisibility nor any magic shield skills, it became a killing machine. The roaring magic missiles drew an arc in the air, bypassing the Xenomorphs that were fighting fiercely, and hit the Predators heavily.
Although the magic missiles themselves looked only the size of a grenade and only had about the power of a grenade when they exploded, when more than a dozen magic missiles hit a target at the same time, the superimposed explosive power was not to be underestimated. Meteors flew across the sky, followed by a series of explosions mixed with flashes of light. The Predators who were hit were sent flying backwards, slamming into the wall and collapsing. Before they could stand up again to launch a counterattack, the Xenomorphs that had pounced on them took away a HP bar.
That felt good!
Looking at the scene in front of him, Fangzheng clenched his fists tightly. Compared to a Paladin, a mage's battle was another kind of violence that was more fascinating. It was like razing a building to the ground with a rocket launcher, or using superior firepower to blow up an entire bunker. The feeling of unreasonably destroying everything was the most wonderful joy in the world.
Coupled with Fangzheng's quick control and the spellcasting abilities he had mastered, he had released four evocation spells, "Lesser Missile Storm", "Greater Missile Storm", "Missile Storm", and "Greater Missile Storm" at the same time just now. There were hundreds of magic missiles in total, and all kinds of special effects scattered all over the place. It made Fangzheng feel like he had transformed into a six-sided boss in a barrage of bullets. It was truly wonderful.
When Fangzheng mastered the level-7 evocation spell, learned Greater Missile Storm, and Greater Spell Casting … Well … Oh, I'm really looking forward to it.
After imagining his future development, Fangzheng finally snapped out of his reverie and looked at the control hall. The entire control hall was in a mess. All the Predators had been killed by Fangzheng and the Xenomorphs. At this moment, their corpses were twitching, and then slowly swelled up.
Under Fangzheng's gaze, the already huge bodies of the Predators began to swell up like inflated balloons. Then, a dark yellow viscous liquid seeped out of the surface of their skin. With the emergence of the liquid, the skin of the Predators became much more transparent, as if the liquid just now had discharged the pigments in their bodies.
After a few minutes, with a soft "puff", Fangzheng saw a small Xenomorph less than one meter long crawl out of the body of a Predator …. To be precise, it came from between the legs.
"Can't we go somewhere else, Lulana?"
If a Xenomorph crawled out from between the legs of a beautiful woman, it would at least have the beauty of a Xenomorph. But crawling out from between the two thick legs of the Predator would only feel …. In short, it was not elegant at all.
"Considering the concealment of this Zerg unit that you requested, I think this is the best solution."
Lulana obviously had no objection to this. It seemed that this artist's aesthetic sense was also different from that of ordinary people.
But then again, the aesthetic sense of an artist was like heaven and earth compared to that of a mortal.
"You're right."
Hearing Lulana's answer, Fangzheng could not help but shrug as he watched the Xenomorph that crawled out of the Predator's body grow rapidly. In order to give the Xenomorphs combat power in the shortest time possible, Lulana had adjusted their genes. This also caused the Xenomorphs to crazily absorb all the nutrients in the host's body the moment they were born, and they would eat the host until there was nothing left. Take the Predator corpse used as a "seedbed" for example. Although it looked normal on the outside, it was actually empty inside. The slightest touch would completely shatter the paper-thin skin and the fragile bones like chocolate bars — because the strength that was originally used to sustain them had become the nutrients for the Xenomorph.
As Lulana said, Fangzheng's first requirement for the Xenomorph was concealment, so this method of "production" was the most beneficial. Otherwise, if they were to hatch the eggs with great fanfare like the Zerg … .well, if they were not discovered, it meant that the other party must be blind.
"Master, the enemy is approaching the control center. They seem to have realised something is wrong."
The little angel could cut off communication, but she could not fake it. The Predators were no fools. When they found that they did not receive a reply to their call, they immediately became suspicious. According to the little angel, all the Predators on the mothership were approaching the control center. The only thing they did not know was what was going on inside.
"Good timing. I don't need to search for them!"
Hearing Nimf's reminder, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows and stretched his hands. After the battle just now, Fangzheng suddenly realised that the pleasure of using magic to deal with the enemy was much better than slashing them one by one with a sword. Previously, he had only fought one-on-one with other mages in the Sky Arena. This was the first time he had used magic to carry out a large-scale AOE attack. It seemed that … .the effect was pretty good!
With that thought in mind, Fangzheng immediately perked up and looked at the metal door in front of him.
