Chapter 388 Destruction and Conspiracy

With a thunderous sound that seemed to split the heavens and earth, a dazzling light erupted within the Thunderstorm Domain. At that moment, Death Valley released all its energy.

At the center of the thunderstorm, the temperature soared to ten billion degrees Celsius in an instant.

Countless thick, ferocious lightning bolts spread outward, and raging tornado hurricanes wreaked havoc, destroying all structures.

Thump!

If one were to look down upon the Cartier Fortress defense line from space at this moment, they would see visible shockwaves spreading rapidly from the thunderstorm center, circling the Blue Star three times in a short period.

These terrifying shockwaves caused tremors in buildings thousands of kilometers away.

"Earthquake waves detected, intensity..."

"High-temperature hurricane detected!"

"Ultra-high electronic radiation detected!"

"Detected..."

At that moment, all combat monitoring equipment across the Blue Star sounded alarms.

The things located at the very center of the thunderstorm, those lower-sequence creatures that had managed to survive the previous electrical turbulence, instantly turned into gas, not even having time to scream.

The ground began to collapse, and even space seemed to be distorted.

In the center of such a terrifying disaster, no creature could survive using its own body. Even an Ancient King who could withstand missiles would be instantly annihilated.

The violent lightning energy lasted for a full thirty seconds, and even after the lightning had completely dissipated, the raging winds did not stop, carrying the high-temperature airflow to other areas.

The description of Death Valley stated that its lightning blast attack range was one hundred and fifty kilometers, but in reality, when the thunderstorm occurred, the area it affected was definitely ten times greater.

The wind carried the high-temperature airflow further afield, causing a large number of satellite signals to be lost. As the wind swept across an area, the land began to dry out and crack, its temperature reaching thousands of degrees, and this high-temperature airflow alone could easily cook and kill a first-time evolver!

This was definitely a terrifying disaster. The destructive power displayed by Death Valley surpassed any nuclear weapon possessed by humans.

"Did it get destroyed?" Li Tianran muttered to himself, looking at the chaotic land, covered in scorched earth and billowing steam.

As the thunderstorm gradually dissipated and the electronic turbulence slowly stabilized, reconnaissance satellites were finally able to see the situation here again.

The high-ranking officials of the Alliance were staring at the satellite monitoring screen at this time, their questions being the same as Li Tianran's.

Did it get destroyed?

Boom!

A behemoth rushed out of the black smoke and steam that filled the sky!

It was actually Sky Castle!

It still existed!

But at this time, it was no longer as majestic and imposing as it had been when it first appeared. Its overall appearance was scorched black, and the outer crystal protective barrier was severely broken. The positions of the three towers at the rear were directly destroyed, revealing the broken mechanical core inside!

At this time, nearly a quarter of Sky Castle had been destroyed!

It was like a wounded soldier escaping from a mass grave, battered and bruised, with broken limbs struggling to survive!

Li Tianran's brow twitched violently.

Death Valley was the most terrifying attack method on the Kunlun Giant Ship, but even so, it was difficult to destroy the opponent's kingdom.

Although Sky Castle was partially destroyed, Li Tianran had seen very clearly before that it was because Sky Castle had wanted to receive those lower-sequence followers and had not fully opened the protective barrier. The location where the protective barrier was opened was the location that was now destroyed!

"The technological crystallization from ancient civilizations is indeed not something that can be easily destroyed," Li Tianran murmured to himself. He had not originally hoped to destroy the opponent's lair in one fell swoop. If an ancient civilization whose technology and level of life far exceeded that of humans could be easily destroyed by the reward items upgraded by the lv4 shelter, then the opponent would not be worthy of descending as the disaster of the fourth Age of Destruction.

According to Li Tianran's speculation, perhaps only when the lv4 shelter was developed to the top level would it be possible to crush the opponent.

Now, relying on a Kunlun Giant Ship to destroy the opponent was simply unrealistic.

The Kunlun Giant Ship was enough for Crazy Breath Island to protect itself when facing ancient civilizations, but it was not enough for Crazy Breath Island to defeat the opponent.

The gap between two civilizations of different levels could not be bridged by relying on a Kunlun Giant Ship!

If he wanted to completely eliminate the ancient civilization, Li Tianran still had a long way to go. He needed time to develop and allow Crazy Breath Island to completely gain a foothold at the lv4 shelter level, thereby narrowing the gap between each other.

"..." Li Tianran looked into the distance.

The Sky Castle was dilapidated, with flames and electric arcs rising from the damaged areas, as well as billowing black smoke. At this time, it was fleeing into the distance.

Li Tianran wanted to pursue, but soon, he received a satellite report from Crazy Breath Island.

The other four ancient buildings were moving towards Crazy Breath Island, the other two important defense lines of mankind, and the direction of the Alliance's highest council center.

It had been said before that these things, whose appearance were ancient buildings, were not buildings at all, but large arks and large aircraft constructed in this form. They were all mobile fortresses.

At this time, Sky Castle had been attacked, and the other four fortresses began to intentionally provide rescue.

Li Tianran pondered for a moment, and finally did not order to continue the pursuit, and then began to return.

Although it was very clear that the other four Ancient Kings' intentions might be to "besiege Wei to rescue Zhao", using this attitude to force himself to give up the pursuit of Sky Castle, in fact, the other party would ninety-nine percent not really continue to launch the war, but Li Tianran did not want to gamble on the remaining one percent chance.

The human defense line seemed too fragile in front of these monsters.

Now, whether for mankind or Li Tianran, the advantage gained by killing an Ancient King was far less than the losses suffered if other defense lines were attacked again!

After this great battle, both humans and ancient civilizations had some basic understanding of each other's strengths and attitudes.

Next would be a long war.

……

The war at Cartier Fortress had no winner or loser. Both humans and ancient civilizations suffered extremely tragic losses.

And not long after Li Tianran returned to Crazy Breath Island, the Alliance convened the first meeting to address the ancient civilization. Faced with ancient creatures that were several times stronger than sea beasts, humans obviously needed to readjust their tactics.

But just before Li Tianran arrived at the Alliance, the heads of various countries received a strange email containing a video image.

The content was the process of Li Tianran's negotiation with the five Ancient Kings before.

"Your relative, the Apostle of the Earth's thinking..."

"Authority, she is our King!"

"You can become the Seventh Apostle..."

"The King cannot be locked up..."

Looking at the conversation between Li Tianran and the five Ancient Kings, and listening to the important information contained in these conversations, the heads of various countries were all in solemn expressions.

They thought of the figures of the five brutal and powerful Ancient Kings. What desperate creatures they were...

Li Tianran's relative was actually one of them?

The heads of various countries looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the conference room was extremely heavy.

"If the ancient civilization is really willing to help Li Tianran, and separate the thinking of his relatives and the Apostle of the Earth, will Li Tianran betray mankind and choose to become our enemy?" The EU spoke, his voice icy cold: "If he really becomes our enemy, what should we do?"
