Chapter 682, Phoenix Savior
The shadow of subspace that has once again enveloped us is thicker than ever.
It has become very difficult for Gu Hang to exert his psychic power into the real universe. Those heroic spirits that had appeared in the real universe were also dispersed and returned to the Kingdom of Storm God.
But so what?
The outcome has been decided. In the naval battle, the Hive Fleet could no longer make a comeback.
If Gu Hang really wanted to forcibly invest his psychic power to affect the real world, it wouldn't be completely impossible. To others, the subspace shadow is an unbreakable wall, but to him, it can be torn apart.
Especially since the insect queen is so far away, and in the current area, the anchor point that forms the subspace shadow, that is, the huge number of hive fleets, is being wiped out at a very fast speed, then let the subspace shadow become More unstable.
But Gu Hang didn't force himself.
The main reason is that it's not necessary.
The secondary reason is that he has something else to do.
Across an extremely long distance, Gu Hang and the Insect Queen looked at each other with a vague look of hatred. At the same time, he was tearing open the shadows of the subspace and the curtain of reality one by one with some difficulty, but also quite firmly.
It was not easy, it took a lot of effort, and it only tore a small bit.
The shadow of subspace still hindered him greatly.
But it didn't matter, what he had to do was originally very simple - he picked up the four dead neuroprotozoa, passed through the four small subspace gaps that were opened, and swallowed them into the Kingdom of Storm God. middle.
Those four neuroprotozoans were directly hit by naval guns and died without having time to protect themselves, or self-protection was useless. In this way, the bodies were not only broken, but may have no bones left; Although the two that Hang killed with his thunder were in pieces, at least they still had their bodies.
But it doesn't matter whether the body is intact, broken, or completely in pieces. As long as the neuroprotozoa die in this place and not for too long, their remaining subspace essence must still be there.
This is what Gu Hang wants.
Neuroprotozoa, or all Zerg creatures in the line of brainworms that possess psychic powers, are different from other bugs. They also have no soul, but the power of spiritual energy must come from subspace, which requires the construction of a subspace essence.
When the insect queen shapes these bugs with psychic power, she will spend a lot of biomass and other things, and it will take a lot of effort and a long time to create such one.
However, no matter how difficult it is to hatch the neuroprotozoal body, it is only the simplest step. Gathering enough 'souls' to form a projection in the subspace is the key to shaping the brainworm. Going further, the neuroprotozoa actually have the same principle, but the transition from quantitative change to qualitative change will be particularly difficult.
Creating four neuroprotozoa like this is actually very difficult for the queen.
The Dubo fleet of the Alfonzo sect suffered a big loss in terms of psychic energy. After the alliance entered the Queen's Star Territory, Gu Hang was still able to use his psychic power even under the shadow of the subspace. And every time it is used, its descendants will suffer huge losses. All this was seen by the insect queen, so she wanted to create these four neuroprotozoa.
Normally, he would be reluctant to send them out for use, but this time he was able to send them all in one go to escort the support Hive Fleet heading south, which shows that he attaches great importance to this matter.
However, not only did she fail to keep the hive fleet that she expected to have sent southward with a huge amount of biomass for support, but all four neuroprotozoa were lost here.
Not only that, when she was extremely angry, resentful, and heartbroken, she also had to watch helplessly as Gu Hang snatched away the neuroprotozoa that were about to dissipate!
It didn't know what Gu Hang wanted to do with the remaining subspace essence of the Neuroprotozoa, but she could guess, and her guess was pretty accurate.
But she was powerless, completely unable to stop Gu Hang in the slightest.
She even felt that the slow look Gu Hang was showing now was actually done to her on purpose, just to provoke her.
This made her even angrier!
In addition to being incompetent and furious, she was actually a little scared - Zerg creatures at the level of the Queen of Insects already had quite a lot of advanced emotions.
What frightened her was that she didn't seem to know how to deal with Gu Hang.
She didn't know how to solve the current dilemma she was facing.
She is very smart, so she can predict many things in the future.
For example, what will Gu Hang do after he wins this time?
It should be to turn around and go south to find the reinforcements that were drawn from the Dantao Battle and headed north to prepare for the reinforcements that have been destroyed now.
The size of that force only reached the level of biological battleships, with only three ships. There was no way they could compete with the alliance's main fleet.
Can you run away?
The Insect Queen had already given them an order to retreat and return to Leyaduches, but it was very likely that they would be overtaken by Gu Hang when they turned around and ran away.
I'm afraid it won't end well.
What next?
Whether Gu Hang directly attacks Leyaduchese or lets go further west and flanks her defense line in the west with Salisius and Martins, it will be a big deal for her. It's a nightmare situation.
But is there any way she can stop it?
Not at all.
He withdrew his gaze and no longer looked at Gu Hang across the subspace.
Not interesting.
Think about how to get through this quickly.
……
Su Lie looked at the countless burning and dead biological ships, and finally felt a little calmer.
Earlier, while drifting in the subspace, he led the remnants of the Chapter with great determination and persisted no matter what hardships they faced.
He and his battle brothers never gave up. They will never give up in the foreseeable future.
But in fact, they are falling into despair day by day.
Even if Su Lie didn't want to admit it, he had to recognize it clearly. That was the truth.
Gu Hang's arrival changed everything.
Although, when Gu Hang first appeared on the Phoenix Crown Feather, which was sailing in subspace and all outsiders should be regarded as enemies, Su Lie naturally launched an attack on Gu Hang. Even though he explained the situation later, he was still wary of Gu Hang.
What things in subspace do not require vigilance?
But to be honest, it also gave him a little hope.
Maybe he can be saved?
Then, guiding the way, providing coordinates, and sharing the current battle situation in the real universe... These information were also confirmed by the battle group's think tank and priests, and were considered to be highly credible.
They did indeed sail on a path that seemed safer and more directional.
All of this deepened his trust in Gu Hang, and it was only after the Phoenix Crown Feather sailed to the back of the Kingdom of Storms and completely avoided the malicious and greedy gaze that he felt a little more at ease.
It was precisely because of the initial trust he had established that he cautiously accepted a battle plan from Gu Hang. However, even though Gu Hang had already told him, he still couldn't help but feel panicked when the Phoenix Crown Feather emerged from the subspace and was surrounded by countless insect swarm biological ships.
In the past, he would be sarcastic and disdainful of some imperial fleets, treating precious and powerful ships as treasures in his hands. It's okay to say that the Retribution class, like the Emperor class, or even higher-level battleships, dare not be put into use in difficult battles. Even in normal battles, they often hide very far behind, and there are very few cannons in the distance. It will penetrate deep into dangerous situations and exert the decisive effect that it should have. As long as there is a slight disadvantage in the battle, naval commanders will tend to let the high-value ships withdraw first and talk later.
This situation is definitely unreasonable and has caused the navy as a whole to be afraid of war. However, when it comes to this, can Su Lie himself be exempt from vulgarity?
In the past battles, he was willing to fight bravely and was stronger than the masters of the Imperial Navy. But if he really took the risk and plunged the Glory Queen-class Phoenix Feather into the most dangerous situation, directly into the core of the enemy ship array, then he would Still don’t dare.
But I dare not, and there is no other way. Now that the situation has reached this point, he can't help but think about it any more.
He could only comfort himself - at least what Gu Hang said was true. Now he could finally let go of the fact that Gu Hang was also a scam created by some subspace demon.
The phoenix crest appeared in the formation of the Hive Fleet. It was majestic and had the final say. It directly destroyed two biological battleships at the beginning and completely tore apart the formation of the Hive Fleet, which greatly attracted people. The attention of the Hive Fleet provided the perfect opportunity for the Alliance's main fleet to attack.
But at the same time, they are also under tremendous pressure. After fighting alone for a long time, they also suffered from fierce concentrated fire. Two biological ships even directly collided with each other, one of which actually hit them.
The void shield is in danger, the ship is damaged, and a large number of Zerg invade the interior of the ship. The battle brothers fight to kill the invaders...
For a moment, Su Lie felt that the phoenix crown and feathers were not going to be destroyed in his own hands, right?
From now on, the Phoenix Chapter will be a start-up group without the Queen of Glory? The largest sacred object that has been passed down by the war group for thousands of years. The entire empire has no way to create a new one. Only the founding group can survive. The Queen of Glory is gone?
This is great fun.
Second only to the demise of the Phoenix Legion under his leadership.
But fortunately, this didn't happen. The powerful performance of the Phoenix crest and the desperate resistance of the Phoenix warriors inside the ship allowed them to finally withstand it.
Although the ship still suffered some damage, it was still within the acceptable range.
Su Lie felt that he must thank Gu Hang properly.
Gu Hang saved the entire Phoenix Chapter.
Not only is it a physical salvation, but it is also a spiritual salvation.
No matter how many reasons and excuses there are, the collapse of the Western Front Army six years ago was Phoenix's defeat.
A complete defeat, a near-annihilation defeat.
And now, the Phoenix Fighter is back. Not only did he return after being saved, but he also appeared as the absolute protagonist in such a battle that was both critical and huge in scale, playing the role of the mainstay and turning the tide.
This is critical.
In the future, the Phoenix Chapter can hold their heads high and say that they are not losers.
Although they experienced failures, they finally came back and won, and they still played a key role in key battles!
From this perspective, he really needs to thank Gu Hang.
Gu Hang is the savior of Phoenix.
In every sense of the word.
……
Gu Hang, who was thanked by Su Lie, was enjoying his meal.
The remaining souls of the four neuroprotozoans were slowly captured in front of them, just to provoke the queen.
The insect queen looked away, and Gu Hang didn't bother to pretend and just started eating.
Quite full.
Not even able to finish one bite.
Earlier, eating a neuroprotozoa could already bring great help to Gu Hang.
Such a neuroprotozoa is very powerful. When compared to humans, it is equivalent to the level of an Alpha level or even stronger psyker; when compared to the subspace, it may be equivalent to the level of a great demon.
Of course, this level of neuroprotozoa is 'artificial', or it can be said that it was fabricated by the queen. The level may be good, but when Gu Hang actually eats it, it's not as nutritious as eating it like a real monster.
The income from digesting Gewaga is much different.
However, it doesn't matter.
If quality is not enough, quantity will make up for it!
Eating a Neuroprotozoa was much worse than eating a big demon. Gu Hang really didn't dare and couldn't find a big demon to eat. However, eating four Neuroprotozoa in one breath is definitely as rich as a big demon.
In fact, Gu Hang couldn't even eat so much in one breath.
The four remnant souls were all imprisoned in a high tower in the Kingdom of Storm God.
This tower was built with the help of the heroic spirits when Gawaja, the Great Impure One, was digested.
Gu Hang ate one of them first, and then hung the other three on the tower.
The thunder and lightning in the Kingdom of Storms constantly bombarded and beat the remnant souls of the three neuroprotozoa hanging on them.
Every bombardment and every beating will knock out some nutrients from their remnant souls, which is the essence of subspace, and then be swallowed up by the entire Storm God Kingdom.
The Kingdom of Storm God is growing.
This also means that Gu Hang's psychic power is growing.
After a little estimation, Gu Hang believes that after he eats and digests all four neuroprotozoans, his psychic power will be able to reach the strongest among the Alpha levels without the help of the Storm God Kingdom. exists.
And once the firepower is fully unleashed, or a battle breaks out in the Kingdom of Storm God, Gu Hang can almost crush ordinary demons like Gevaga.
Against monsters like Neuroprotozoa, four at the same time, Gu Hang no longer even needed the help of tens of thousands of storm mages to fight alone.
This is an obvious increase in strength.
A long time ago, after Gu Hang upgraded his psychic level to LV9 in the system interface, his upgrade path in the system came to an end. If you want to improve, it seems that you can only devour this top-notch psychic creature.
The most fundamental requirement is that this creature needs to have a strong enough subspace essence to nourish the Kingdom of Storm God.
