The members of the Fallen Ark were all wanted criminals from various Star Fields. Some of them were fanatical followers of EsGod, and some of them wanted to obtain EsGod's protection. These thugs only believed in experts at EsGod's level and did not submit to anyone else.
Now that EsGod was gone, they had lost their powerful leader. No one had the right to be the boss, and these criminals who lacked discipline and cohesion lost interest in continuing to stick together.
Without the deterrence of EsGod, these criminals knew that the next step of the three Universal Civilizations would be to clean up the desolate universe belt in the Central Galaxy and eradicate these criminals who had been gathering for many years.
After EsGod fell, this paradise of criminals that was known throughout the universe collapsed rapidly. Batch after batch of criminals left the organization, and the powerful Fallen Ark fell apart, splitting into countless small groups. The secret production bases built on the desolate planets were also looted by the members who left the organization.
The desolate universe belt in the Central Galaxy was originally dominated by the Fallen Ark, maintaining a subtle gray order. Now, this lawless zone had become even more chaotic and dangerous. The criminals killed and robbed each other, and this kind of drama was playing out in different areas at every moment.
At this moment, thousands of battleships were fighting around a desolate planet.
This planet was one of the secret research bases built by EsGod, storing valuable information, technology, and special products. The thousands of battleships fighting belonged to dozens of criminal groups, and the goal of each group was to snatch the results of this research base. One of the groups was Shazik's team.
The outer space of the planet was a galactic battlefield of intense crossfire. Most of these warships were not equipped with dark energy annihilation weapons. Instead, they used second-tier warship cannon technology. The scorching plasma beams crisscrossed and dyed the black velvet space into a colorful canvas. The shields of the small and medium-sized warships of different models were penetrated by the plasma cannons. The hull of the warships was melted, and the armor was melted into a red-hot mixture of solid and liquid, which turned into metal clouds of unpredictable shapes and became obstacles on the battlefield.
The battle lasted for a while, and the outcome was finally decided. Shazik's team was one of the victors, and they looted this research base with the others before leaving in satisfaction.
…
A pitch-black blade gently slid across his throat, and warm blood spurted out, splattering on the blood-stained walls of the spaceship.
Plop!
A gray-skinned creature with densely packed compound eyes fell to the ground while clutching his bleeding neck, revealing the murderer behind him.
The murderer was a humanoid creature wielding a long blade. It was thin and wore a hood and a black mechanical mask, revealing only a pair of scarlet eyes.
This was a dilapidated cabin. The walls of the cabin were covered with slash marks and sparks of electricity. There were hundreds of corpses of different species lying on the ground. The ground was covered with blood scabs of various colors, and the walls were covered with blood splatter marks. Only the murderer was left standing.
"There are 15,700..."
The murderer's voice was hoarse, like an old bellows. With a flick of his wrist, he shook off the blood on the long knife and put it back into the scabbard on his back. Then, he pressed his mechanical wristwatch, opened his address book, and sent a message to a number marked as "employer."
"Target eliminated."
Soon, the employer sent a voice message, full of excitement and gratitude.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Lothaire. Thank you for helping us take revenge. If it weren't for you, we would never …"
"It's just a transaction. Remember to pay."
Lothaire replied faintly.
He was a solo bounty assassin, but his hunting targets were limited to the members of the Fallen Ark.
Lothaire was born on a colonial planet of an advanced civilization and grew up in a quiet and peaceful environment. However, one day, the fleet of the Fallen Ark arrived, bringing death and destruction.
He thought that he was dead for sure, but he did not know that there was a decent Esper Ability hidden in his body that awakened at the critical moment and escaped the fate of being killed. However, resistance was futile. Because of his Esper Ability, he was captured by the members of the Fallen Ark and offered to EsGod as a sacrifice.
Therefore, Lothaire faced EsGod head-on. His newly awakened Esper Ability was taken away, and he became a mummy on the verge of death. His life was like a candle in the wind, about to be extinguished at any time.
Usually, people who had their Esper Abilities taken away by EsGod would be made into food or thrown into the universe. Perhaps it was the blessing of the goddess of luck, but Lothaire's batch of 'medicinal dregs' were all thrown into the universe. Ordinary people would not be able to survive in the universe, but he realized that although he had lost his Esper Ability, when he had just awakened it, his Esper Ability had already modified his body, allowing him to survive in the universe.
After the Fallen Ark fleet left, the civilization's rescue team arrived before Lothaire died, and Lothaire became the only survivor. He had a deep-seated hatred for EsGod and the Fallen Ark. Driven by hatred, Lothaire, who had lost his Esper Ability and turned back into a mortal, went through a lot of hardships and stepped onto the path of martial arts, becoming a Super again.
After his training, Lothaire became a bounty assassin.
The members of the Fallen Ark were all wanted criminals who joined EsGod's forces to avoid being hunted down by the various large civilizations. Lothaire, on the other hand, specifically hunted down these wanted criminals with criminal records, making these fugitives who thought they were safe pay their blood debts. The employers were usually the victims of the Fallen Ark.
Today, the number of Fallen Ark fugitives who had died under Lothaire's blade had reached six digits. However, Lothaire was not satisfied with this. He trained his strength like an ascetic monk in order to complete the ultimate goal hidden deep in his heart — assassinate EsGod!
The experience of facing EsGod had always been his nightmare, bringing him endless fear and waking him up from his sleep countless times. However, even if he knew it was impossible, he did not give up on this ultimate goal.
Ignoring the corpses on the ground, Lothaire was about to turn around and walk to the spaceship's control room when his communicator suddenly received a piece of breaking news. It was the joint statement of the three Universal Civilizations.
"EsGod has been captured?"
Lothaire's expression changed, and he stopped to read the news carefully.
After a while, he let out a long sigh of relief. For a moment, he felt a sense of loss, as if he had lost his goal.
However, very quickly, Lothaire's gaze became firm again.
He muttered to himself, "Is the guy who captured EsGod Black Star …"
…
On a certain habitable planet, there was a race of galactic immigrants living on it. The mother planet of this race had been blown into a dead planet by EsGod, and there were less than ten percent survivors. They had no choice but to migrate to a new home.
When the news of EsGod being captured reached this race, all of them cried tears of joy.
"EsGod has finally been captured!"
"Wuwuwu … We've waited for this day for too long!"
"Praise Black Star!"
"May Black Star be immortal!"
The same scene played out on many planets at the same time.
…
The news of EsGod being captured caused a huge commotion. Other than the celebrating civilizations and galactic residents, some secret organizations were also alarmed.
"EsGod is too cruel. I knew this day would come sooner or later."
"With EsGod gone, the Fallen Ark will no longer exist. No one will continue to attract the firepower of the three Universal Civilizations for us. This is not good for us."
"Continue to keep a low profile and accumulate strength. We won't be as flamboyant as EsGod, so we won't be targeted."
"Actually, this is also an opportunity. We can take EsGod's inheritance and subordinates and strengthen our forces."
"Hmm, send people to the Central Galaxy. There are many organizations eyeing this opportunity. We can't fall behind."
There were many ambitious organizations that belonged to the Chaotic Evil Faction in the universe. The fall of the Fallen Ark was something worth celebrating for normal people, but for them, it was a feast for them to divide up EsGod's assets!
…
Blue Star's outer space, Floating Dragon Island palace.
Ames stood at the edge of the floating island, looking down at the Blue Star. The starlight reflected in her eyes.
Footsteps sounded behind her, gradually approaching. Ames turned her head and saw Aesop walking to her side.
"Something big happened." Aesop shook his head. "EsGod has been captured by the three Universal Civilizations."
"What happened?" Ames raised her brows.
"See for yourself."
Aesop passed the communicator to Ames.
After browsing through it, Ames casually returned the communicator to Aesop and smiled.
"He really can't stay idle."
"Black Star has done something big again. He's getting stronger and stronger." Aesop sighed.
He had lived a long life and experienced the craziest era of EsGod, so he was very wary of EsGod. He did not expect this guy to fall in the hands of a new Beyond Grade A Super.
Although this was a gang fight, he also saw Han Xiao's current connections and influence from the three Universal Civilizations' joint squad. Even when he was a member of the Ancient Ones, he did not have as much influence as Han Xiao.
"That's right, he's getting stronger and stronger."
Ames's smile faded, and she suddenly fell silent. She still remembered that when she fought EsGod with Black Star, EsGod's strength had left a deep impression on her. Now, EsGod had fallen in the hands of Han Xiao. Han Xiao's strength had steadily surpassed hers.
Although she did not purposely pursue strength, seeing her former subordinate catch up to her still made her feel a little complicated.
She used to be high and mighty, but when Black Star reached the Beyond Grade A Super, they were on the same level. Now, be it status, influence, or personal strength, Black Star surpassed her in all aspects. He completed the counterattack under her watch.
Although her strength had improved, a large part of it was because Black Star had strengthened her with the Evolution Cube.
Their positions had been reversed.
Ames stretched lazily, and her tall and slender figure relaxed. She let out a soft sigh.
"I seem to have been too lazy these past few years and have neglected training. It's time to find a time to have a good fight with Black Star."
…
You have received 1 Legendary Point.
"Universe Legendary Point? Woah, EsGod's notoriety is really deep. "Han Xiao clicked his tongue in wonder.
As one of the final bosses of the Chaotic Evil Faction, EsGod was still quite famous. The sensation of capturing him was no less than the Battle of Planet Lighthouse. His influence covered the entire universe, so he was given the highest Legendary Point.
Closing the notification, Han Xiao opened the forums. The players were also discussing EsGod's fall.
