Tales Of The World Devouring Serpent

“Humph!”

Fang Yun snorted coldly upon seeing the fleeing battleships. He isn’t a forgiving person. He launched countless attacks towards them, ranging from energy to space attacks.

More and more ships exploded, rendering the surrounding space scarlet like hell.

“This monster is too powerful.”

After seeing this scene in the distance, Gu Li had a gloomy and helpless expression. He knew that they couldn’t defeat this monster.

The attack power of their battleships is not enough. They need much more advanced battleships and higher-level weapons to inflict fatal damage to this serpent.

“Hah…”

Gu Li heaved a long sigh. While thinking about a new strategy, he saw that the giant serpent was flying around the fleet, temporarily not paying attention to their fleet.

At the beginning, he decided to fight against the giant serpent due to excitement, but now his heart has calmed down.

The giant serpent is rampaging across the base, constantly devouring spaceships and giant infrastructures, this might be their opportunity to escape.

“We can’t stay at this base anymore.”

Gu Li finally came to this conclusion. He decided to retreat and immediately acted on his decision.

“Everyone! Stop attacking and turn immediately! We’re leaving!“

The moment he issued the order, he was the first to turn around and leave. A second later, the allied fleet or what remained of it followed behind him.

“Huh?”

The commander of the base immediately noticed Gu Li’s actions, his brows furrowed as he immediately connected to Gu Li’s ship, questioning with a loud voice.

“Commander Gu Li, what are you doing?”

“Commander Zhang Wang, give up, we can’t keep this base.”

On the holographic projection, Gu Li calmly said to Zhang Wang, causing him to be furious.

“Are you going to escape?! Gu Li! Do you understand the consequences of your actions?!”

Zhang Wang looked very angry,

“Gu Li, don’t think that the giant serpent rampage won’t affect you because there is the sixth heaven between our heavens!”

”Listen here! If you are unwilling to join hand with us to deal with the giant serpent, you will die under its mouth one day!”

He cursed fiercely. Zhang Wang was extremely angry. In his opinion, the fifth and sixth heavens were the ones to initiate this battle.

In his opinion, it’s absolutely impossible for them to develop any transcendent weapon in a short time.

Their best option is to work with them to kill the giant serpent in their seventh heaven.

It’s a pity that the seeds of fear sprouted in Gu Li’s heart, causing him to make the decision to escape with his fleet.

Gu Li’s behavior caused the disadvantageous situation of the fleet to become even more desperate. More importantly, the morale of the base and seventh heaven fleet started to waver, many people started having thoughts of escaping.

Zhang Wang quickly reacted and shot two spaceships that were trying to escape, trying to keep military discipline and warning those with the thoughts of fleeing.

Unfortunately, the general trend has been set. Even if Zhang Wang used the most terrifying threat, many ships still followed Gu Li’s fleet and escaped.

“Damn it!”

Zhang Wang angrily shouted. He knew that Gu Li’s actions caused the subtle standstill to break.

The military rules and courage they used to talk about fell apart in front of the giant serpent. Now they could only watch the soldiers of the seventh heaven escape as the giant serpent rampaged.

The entire base collapsed. The sun-sized space fortress was divided into several parts, but Gu Li’s fleet was already far away at that point.

“Commander Zhang Wang, we must escape as well!”

One of the higher officials persuaded Zhang Wang,

“Commander Zhang Wang, if we don’t act quickly, we won’t be able to leave later on even if we want to leave.”

The giant serpent is still some distance away, but if they wait anymore, the giant serpent will catch up and they won’t be able to run anymore. That murderous beast will not allow them to leave.

“I know…”

Zhang Wang nodded and said, “If you want to run, then run!”

“As for me…” Zhang Wang shook his head and said,

“I will perish with this base!”

Zhang Wang solemnly said. He never intended to escape.

It had been more than three hundred years since he was appointed as the commander of this base.

Over such a long period, he developed a deep affection for this base. He felt his heart being torn as he watched the base getting destroyed. It’s almost like watching his son being killed.

In the control center of the base, the soldiers and higher officials gritted their teeth as they watched Zhang Wang behaving like this. They didn’t know how to persuade him.

“You guys go quickly!”

Zhang Wang had already figured out the result of today’s battle. This base will be destroyed! Not only that, even the entire seventh heaven will be heavily affected.

“Haah… We shouldn’t have touched this monster from the beginning.

Zhang Wang regretfully looked at the giant serpent on the holographic screen. If they hadn’t decided to participate in the battle against the giant serpent, things shouldn’t have reached this point?

No matter how bad their situation would have been, at least, it shouldn’t be worse than that of the eighth heaven.

It’s a pity that there is no regret medicine to take in this world. They can only reap the fruits of their actions, he included.

Because he was one of the first to advocate the attack on the giant serpent.
