Global Era of Star Trekking

Chapter 1822: Chapter 887: The Torch’s Rise to Fame

The massive body of the Chaos Giant Elephant suddenly became stiff.

As an Eleventh Rank Mythical Creature, how sharp were its perceptions? Almost at the moment the insect swarm retreated, the cold killing intent from the Three Corpses Superstate Mecha Giant clamped down like tangible shackles, securely pinning every inch of its skin.

"Moo—!"

A deep, panicked trumpet tore through the sky as the Chaos Qi around the giant elephant roiled madly, its thick trunk sweeping through like a collapsing Heavenly Pillar, attempting to tear through space to escape.

However, it was too late.

"Suppress!"

With the high degree of unity in the wills of Jiang Yuan, Ji Heng, and Ying Yi, the six arms of the Three Corpses Superstate Mecha Giant moved in unison. Those Miracle Weapons stained with the blood of the Corrosive Emperor Insect once again burst into dazzling brilliance.

This time, the brilliance did not spread but rather contracted rapidly, transforming into three interwoven Chaos Rule Chains—

One entwined through time and space, solidifying phenomena; another pierced through the void, directly targeting the origin of the rules; the last one burned with a fierce fire, dedicated to incinerating life.

The three chains, like Judgement Spears from the depths of Chaos, instantly crossed the void, and wrapped precisely around the colossal body of the Chaos Giant Elephant like a mighty mountain range.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

The skin tough enough to withstand a star’s impact and its Chaos Energy were frantically bound by the three Rule Chains. No matter how it struggled, it couldn’t break free in a short time, and the body’s attempt to enter the void halted abruptly.

"Roar!!!"

The Chaos Giant Elephant let out an indignant roar, its massive body struggling wildly, causing the space within endless light-years to tremble violently with each twist. The ruins of the Human Emperor City below were isolated by a Five-Colored Space Locking Component used by Ferdinand, otherwise, the Torch Fleet in the city would have suffered countless casualties.

But all this was futile.

Failing to enter the void immediately meant this Eleventh Rank Chaos Giant Elephant had already missed its final chance to escape.

Above The Vault of Heaven, the energy core in the chest of the Three Corpses Superstate Mecha Giant was already open. The original energy generator had long been transformed into a pitch-black, sinister cannon muzzle. Under the mind control of the three, Jiang Yuan, Ji Heng, and Ying Yi, the black muzzle erupted violently, shooting out a beam capable of annihilating everything.

"Destroy!"

There was no glamorous eruption, only a simple, unadorned black trajectory containing the will of absolute destruction quietly descended.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The struggling movements of the Chaos Giant Elephant froze, its terrified eyes completely dimmed.

The next moment, a fine line of blood appeared at its forehead, piercing through its entire body.

The third Eleventh Rank Mythical Alien Race, fallen.

But that was that.

With the fall of this Chaos Giant Elephant, or rather as early as when the Corrosive Insect Swarm chose to swarm away, the handful of remaining Five Races Alliance forces had already completely lost their will to fight.

Once the Three Corpses Superstate Mecha Giant had completely dealt with the Eleventh Rank Chaos Giant Elephant, the aliens gathered around Human Emperor City had already scattered and fled, with a few Mythical Enslaved Creatures and Song Chi using every method to hold a few Tenth Rank aliens trying to escape.

With the help of the Three Corpses Superstate Mecha Giant, which was now free to act, these forcibly retained Mythical Alien Races were soon resolved, and afterward, Jiang Yuan and his companions, upon disengaging from the fusion, swiftly convened all Torch Captains of Ninth Rank and above in the city for a high-level conference.

As for the Eleventh Rank Myth that fled—Yan Hou

Jiang Yuan and his companions did not bother with it, as the most crucial task now was to reorganize the Torch Warship Legion and attempt further counter-push outwards.

...

Within the Human Emperor Hall, the location of the highest command center, the atmosphere was grave and somber, yet tinged with a pulse of survival after a great ordeal.

Inside the hall, Jiang Yuan, Ji Heng, Ying Yi, and Ferdinand, four veteran Human Emperors of the civilization, along with Song Chi, who was acknowledged by all as the fifth Torch Human Emperor, occupied the upper seats, while below were Jiang Yi, Ying Wei, Wilson, Ji Qing, and several dozen Ninth Rank Superdimensional Captains.

At this moment, everyone was somewhat fatigued, having just gone through a high-intensity chaotic battle, but their eyes were all exceptionally sharp.

Everyone understood that the matters to be discussed next were crucial for the future prosperity of the entire Torch Civilization.

The holographic Star Chart unfolded in the center of the hall, clearly marking the vast expanses of Chaos Divine Land territory with Human Emperor City as the center, along with the coordinates of over a hundred Chaos Cities conquered by the Alien Race Alliance Army in past years.

Among them, the Superlimit Level [Heaven-Reaching Chaos City] and several Top Chaos Cities like [Split Mountain Ancestor City] stood out like the most glaring blood-red stars.

Jiang Yuan was the first to speak, his voice steady yet carrying an undeniable decisiveness:

"Ladies and gentlemen, this battle was a Pyrrhic victory, with our civilization paying a heavy price, Human Emperor City nearly half-destroyed, countless comrades fallen. Yet crisis is also opportunity; the main force of the Alien Race Alliance is dispersed, their high-end combat power gravely diminished, presenting us the perfect chance for external expansion!"

Ji Heng added, pointing at the hundreds of light points on the Star Chart:

"These conquered Chaos Cities mostly have their defense facilities destroyed, and their garrisons are unprecedentedly empty due to being drawn into the alliance army, especially Tongtian City and Split Mountain Ancestor City. These two cities are the ancestral cities of the Chaos Demon Ape clan and Split Mountain Ancient Ape clan. The surrounding areas are not only resource-rich but also strategically vital. If we can seize them, using them as a foothold, the foundation of our civilization in this Heavenly Ape Star Realm, and even the Chaos Divine Land, will be thoroughly solidified, no longer a situation of defending isolated cities!"

Ying Yi’s eyes shot with bright light, his fighting spirit soaring:

"Exactly! Strike while the iron is hot! Although Yan Hou has escaped, he is grievously wounded and absolutely incapable of fighting again in the short term."
