The dark and cold universe was filled with an unnatural Chaos Fog, and in the depths of the Chaos Fog that could block the vision of demigods, a planet shrouded in faint light was quietly hanging alone. Although there were no stars shining on it, it was maintained in a state of vitality by a divine barrier around the planet.
Above the planet, the fog of chaos suddenly swirled, and then a vortex door filled with light slowly opened, and a silver-white starship slid out of the door silently and headed towards the vibrant planet below.
Looking at the live feed from the external monitor, looking at the miraculous planet that had been split in two but was incredibly still alive, Hao Ren could not help but be amazed. While this was not the first time he had seen L 'Haronne, no matter how many times he had seen it, the planet that was reshaped in the dream of the gods still amazed him.
"Unbelievable … the power of the gods is really unbelievable."
On the ship, there were only three "people" who came with him, Vivian, Lily, and Rheia who was moving in the form of a projection.
Such a streamlined team configuration was rare, but Hao Ren thought it was enough. Unlike the time when they mistakenly entered L 'Haronne's dream, this time they were heading to a rather "safe" planet. The real L' Haronne was revived under the protection of the goddess of creation, and while the goddess herself did not know all the details of the planet, she could at least be sure that there was no fatal threat on the planet. Since there was no danger, it did not take too many people just to investigate.
In fact, Hao Ren's original plan was that only he and Vivian would be enough, but Lily felt bored watching the door at home, so she pestered him to come along. As for Rheia … she was not considered a member of Hao Ren's crew, so she decided to send a projection along, and no one could stop her.
Moreover, L 'Haronne was reshaped in her dream, and while it was an unconscious act, Rheia was not very clear about the process. But she still had a basic understanding of the planet, and it would be of great use if she brought it along.
Lily sat in her chair, throwing popcorn into her mouth as she muttered, "Is there really a clue about the Mad Lord here?"
"It's hard to say," Rheia answered her. "The original L 'Haronne was destroyed a long time ago, and the current L' Haronne was forcibly restored by my dreams and obsession. How much information of the old world can this reconstructed world retain is unknown. We are here to try our luck. After all, there is such a big clue here, and we can't just ignore it."
As they spoke, the Petrachelys had approached the top of L 'Haronne's atmosphere, and a glowing, light blue "membrane" floated in the void, separating the atmosphere from the chaotic universe outside. This membrane was the divine barrier formed by Rheia's 10,000 years of obsession.
It was this barrier that distorted reality and tampered with history, forcibly restoring a planet that had originally been completely destroyed to its original state.
Nolan carefully controlled the ship to approach the seemingly thin but actually contained terrifying power of the divine barrier. This was the steadiest the female pilot had ever steered the ship.
The energy shield outside the ship and the divine barrier finally made contact, and when the two touched, a small ripple was produced, but the ripple quickly expanded, and in Hao Ren's surprised gaze, the entire atmosphere suddenly lit up, and the "divine membrane" seemed to solidify and showed signs of crystallization, as if it was preventing outsiders from invading. But the anomaly did not last long, and soon the expanding ripple gradually calmed down, and the crystallization returned as the ship smoothly entered L 'Haronne's atmosphere.
Hao Ren breathed a sigh of relief, and he had thought that his stats were going to get another big hit, and he almost wanted to ask Nolan for an emergency pull up, but it was just a false alarm. "What the heck … What was that?"
Rheia was also taken aback, but as an expert in divine powers (at least as a primary school student, she was stronger than everyone else there), she quickly had a guess. "This barrier has been resisting the invasion of chaos from the outer universe, and our ship's descent from the realm of chaos might have been tainted by some of the presence that the barrier would repel. But these presences were quickly purified, and there shouldn't be any more problems."
"Be careful." Hao Ren nodded. "This planet is not to be judged by common sense."
Lily clapped her hands as she excitedly leaned on the railing in front of her, looking at the sea of clouds that was getting clearer. "Don't worry, Mr. Landlord, my brain is the best!"
Hao Ren said, "… Err … That's not what I meant by not being judged by common sense … Hmm? What is that? "
L 'Haronne's sea of clouds was getting closer, and they could even see the occasional flashes of lightning and snow, and beneath the layers of clouds, Hao Ren saw something else.
A ship, a ship flying above the sea of clouds, a vehicle created by the residents of L 'Haronne, was traversing through the clouds, and the silver-white hull and the dazzling and elegant sails spread out on both sides of the hull, giving this low-tech aircraft a beauty akin to a piece of art. But on both sides and behind the airship, there were three simple grey battleships hot on its tail. The three grey battleships had a cloud-like paint, and their triangular hulls and even more sweeping sails gave them far more maneuverability than the white ship. They caught up to the white ship that was trying to escape, and a series of tiny flashes leaped between the airships. Those were obviously the fires of battle.
While the three grey battleships were only one-fifth of the size of the white ship, and they looked particularly shabby and crude, they had the absolute advantage in this chase. It was like a small battleship besieging a large but clumsy civilian barge, putting the white ship in danger. As the battleships tore at the beautiful white airship, a dozen large and small flames appeared on the surface of the beautiful white airship, and part of the sails had peeled off from the main body, hanging shakily on both sides of the hull, and its counterattack was getting weaker and weaker. It was almost a one-sided attack.
"Something really happens everywhere I go …" Looking at the image from the external monitor, Hao Ren could not help but smack his forehead. "So there's a war going on?"
"First of all, we're flying at the top of the atmosphere, using advanced observation equipment to collect intelligence. Almost half of the planet's situation can be observed, so it's quite normal to find such an incident," Nolan's holographic projection appeared on the bridge, and she said matter-of-factly, "Secondly, according to the analysis of the mainframe, what's going on below is not a regular war, but more like a pirate raid. Lastly, if the attack continues, the white airship will be destroyed in another hour."
"Go down and help," Vivian said without hesitation. "We can find out more about the situation after we rescue someone."
Lily looked at Vivian excitedly and asked, "No more secret infiltration this time?"
"We're not deep in enemy territory, and it's not some ancient forbidden land," Hao Ren waved his hand. "There's no need to be so careful."
Although he said that, he still added, "Of course, don't make too much noise. My plan is to first contact a small number of the local people, roughly understand the situation on this planet, and then contact their superiors. This way, it's more stable. If we make too much noise, it'll be easy for the local people to think that we've been invaded by aliens. Maybe before we have time to find out more about the situation, we'll be attacked by a group of superheroes who wear their underwear on the outside. "
Lily shook her head and said, "If we really encounter such a situation, actually, we can just call Old Wang over. I heard from him that when he was young, he always worked on the demon king's descent. He's very experienced in this work …"
"…"
Above the clouds, the silver-white space battleship adjusted its course and then flew straight toward the four airships that were fiercely fighting below the clouds.
One-Eyed Kant was not in a very good mood today.
That was to maintain a good mood and face every day happily.
But today, he was still not happy.
He had accepted a big deal, a big deal that was enough to let him and his descendants live in luxury for the next eighteen generations, and the content of this big deal was just to rob a lone passenger ship. Of course, this exceptionally gorgeous passenger ship had a powerful armed force that didn't quite make sense, but this didn't make him depressed. What really made him unhappy was that this deal was just too … wonderful.
The difficulty of the "business" was far lower than the reward paid by the customer, which was not a good sign.
As an experienced pirate, Kant had already smelled many unusual smells from this business. For example, this time the customer not only gave him an astonishing deposit, but also gave him a large number of advanced equipment that could not be obtained by conventional means. The equipment included the magic power center, main cannon, and shield generator of the airship, all of which had been erased, but had the obvious style of elven craftsmen. These things were the core of the flying warship. After replacing them, it could be said that Kant's pirate ship had completely become a fully armed regular warship, except for the shell. The customer also gave a clear plundering requirement: the target must be attacked when the target left the White City Federation and flew over the World Scar, and once the target entered the territory of the Empire, regardless of whether the goal was achieved or not …
Kant was almost certain that this was a secret struggle within a large faction, and he and his pirate crew were playing the role of a card in this struggle, and it was very likely that they were a card that was casually played.
After all, he could not even guess who this powerful force was, so it was easy to imagine how important his pirate crew was in this incident.
But he could not refuse.
Kant subconsciously touched his eye patch. That was the price he had to pay for rejecting the "big business" the last time. The price was also the previous pirate crew he led, as well as the name and identity he originally used.
This great pirate could not help but feel a headache.
He began to think of a way out. In this plundering drama, the "pirate crew" must be just a prelude, and the real back-up of those big shots must be controlled by them. So how would they appear? A warship that came to annihilate the pirates? Or a passing noble armed force? Or even a "mysterious warship" that "accidentally" broke in and happened to have powerful firepower?
Anyway, no matter what it was, when such a thing appeared, he had to escape with his pirate crew as soon as possible, and then rush to the Cloud Summit, where there were enough supplies and backup ships, as well as a portal to the secret port. That was one of the escape routes that Kant had left for himself.
But would those big shots hiding behind the scenes really leave this way for him?
The great pirate felt his headache getting worse.
The white airship was still resisting stubbornly. She was really a beautiful ship, and it was really a pity to watch her disintegrate under the bombardment of his own pirate ship. Kant even began to think that if the ship suddenly exploded with incredible potential and then accelerated all the way to the territory of the Dragon Empire, that might be the best result. That would mean that the plan of those big shots had been stopped prematurely, and he and his pirate crew would not continue to be involved in this deadly conspiracy, and that beautiful ship … She could continue to fly beautifully.
Unfortunately, the ship was obviously beyond saving. A series of flashes had just erupted from its waist, which was a sign that the magic power center had overloaded and exploded.
The great pirate pressed his forehead. He knew that the decisive moment had come. He felt a terrible headache, which was also caused by the one-eyed man, and it was getting worse with time.
At that moment, a silver-white "airship" rushed out of the clouds.
She broke into the battlefield from above, so Kant did not notice the appearance of the ship at all. When he noticed the change in the surrounding light, the silver-white ship that suddenly broke into the battlefield had hit the bow of the pirate ship. The powerful impact directly tore the keel wrapped in enchanted copper and crushed most of the cabin. Kant only had time to turn his head slightly before his head flew out along with the shattered cabin.
In the year 221 of the Glory Calendar, a group of visitors from outer space visited this closed world. They eliminated a potential crisis, uncovered the truth of the world, and brought true revelations.
They also cured the great pirate Kant's headache.
