CHAPTER 282: CHAPTER 281: ANNIHILATING THE SHELL CLAN CIVILIZATION

The Shell Clan Civilization originally planned to withdraw their forces from Mushroom Star and focus all their efforts on fighting the Wandering Alliance.

They were well aware of their military strength and naturally did not wish to disperse their limited forces and be entangled in conflicts on two fronts.

However, what they had not anticipated was that as their forces on Mushroom Star began to withdraw, they were fiercely obstructed by the Mushroom Civilization.

Although the air force of the Mushroom Civilization had already been annihilated, leaving them without air combat ability, the Mushroom Civilization had installed many Air Defense Weapons Systems on Mushroom Star and possessed some large amphibious air defense motherships. During the previous defense against the Shell Clan Civilization’s invasion, many of the air defense weapons were destroyed by the Shell Clan’s more advanced weapons. However, some remained, and with the confirmation of interception plans, the Mushroom Civilization mobilized all available resources and urgently assembled numerous Anti-Air Annihilation Missiles and Particle Accelerators, achieving a certain resurgence in their air combat capabilities.

The Shell Clan soldiers, lacking any intelligence on these developments and in a hurry to withdraw, had neither the strategic plan nor the mental preparation to counter these actions.

Therefore, when these soldiers boarded their small flying vehicles to evacuate from Mushroom Star, they were suddenly met with intense encirclement and interception by large-scale firepower. The unexpected situation left them in disarray. Even though they managed to evade many of the weapon attacks by utilizing the agility and speed of their small flyers, due to the Mushroom Civilization’s reckless launching of various air defense weapons within the dense barrage, the attempt to ascend was undermined as the vehicles were eventually shot down one by one.

However, the Mushroom Civilization also paid a heavy price; their ammunition reserves built up over many years were almost exhausted.

This was mainly because some Shell Clan soldiers, upon realizing they could not retreat temporarily, switched to local combat. The Mushroom Civilization made great sacrifices to eliminate these stubborn Shell Clan soldiers. Additionally, having lost all satellite systems and without precise GPS guidance, the efficiency of the air defense weapons was significantly affected, leading to many deviations and a great deal of waste. But even with these unfavorable conditions, the Mushroom Civilization’s ability to annihilate the remaining forces of the Shell Clan Civilization on Mushroom Star could be called a miracle constructed by luck and courage!

And after securing victory in the self-defense counterattack on Mushroom Star.

The Mushroom Civilization celebrated their victory with joy, while closely monitoring the situation of the main space battlefield.

Although they did not know what an Advanced Civilization was, and had never had any contact with them, they regarded the Wandering Alliance as allies in an invisible sense. Furthermore, the main space battlefield was the decisive factor in the overall outcome of the war. Their victory was only a temporary triumph, so the Mushroom Civilization would keep a close watch no matter what.

However, what the Mushroom Civilization could never have imagined was that those giant flying objects in space, comparable in size to planets, turned out to be all-purpose Battle Stars that combined offense, defense, and mobility. This was far superior to their own Cosmic Battleships, and they only then realized that with different Civilization Levels and technological standards, the difference in imagination and concepts was truly damn enormous!

Watching the alien Battle Stars clash fiercely in the cosmos, the Mushroom Civilization couldn’t help feeling a tinge of envy.

If one day their Mushroom Civilization could also control Mushroom Star to battle like that, how great it would be!

Moreover, controlling a Survival Planet to combat brought far more advantages than one could imagine. The substantial upgrade in Weapon Level was apparent, but most importantly, it would lead to an unprecedented unity of the entire planet, greatly enhancing the Battle Star’s combat capabilities.

That’s because most people do not feel much of a threat when they do not sense impending danger and would even prefer to spend their energy on internal strife. However, controlling a Survival Planet for battle means truly binding the destiny of the planet with all its residents. Every battle could potentially be the last, allowing everyone to deeply feel the difficulties of survival and the dangers of the Universe. Thus, instinctively and united, they would strive together for survival. Such a military-political system is not about right or wrong, but it is indeed more suitable for survival in the dangerous cosmos.

At this moment, the Mushroom Civilization was unaware that this was the advantage of a life community.

Of course, what the Mushroom Civilization could never have imagined was actually the Metal Planet Wandering!

They were already astonished by a planet composed purely of metal elements, but when they saw that this Metal Planet could also change and divide, their jaws nearly dropped. This was far beyond their Civilization Level II imaginations; they realized their imagination had been completely confined by their technological limitations.

At that moment, all members of the Mushroom Civilization couldn’t help but look up at the battle unfolding in the sky above.

With expressions of longing and envy mixed with solemnity and awe, it was as if they were watching an epic war movie, prompting profound introspection from everyone!

The more the Mushroom Civilization focused on this space war, the deeper their reverence for the Wandering Alliance grew.

Just sending out a few small squads was enough to beat the Shell Clan Civilization, that had previously tormented the Mushroom Civilization, into a state of desperate defense. One after another, the Planet Battle Stars were destroyed, turning into seas of fire. Paired with unimaginably powerful Energy Weapons scattering everywhere, it was as if a layer of colorful interior decorations had been added to the dark Universe.

From the perspective of Mushroom Star, it looked even more like a series of astonishing auroras, a spectacular show. The brilliant auroras enveloped the entire Mushroom Star, persisting as long as the war did, seemingly narrating the brutality of war through their beautiful display!

...

After learning that the soldiers on Mushroom Star had been completely wiped out.

The Shell Clan Civilization, with only fifteen Battle Stars left, was so enraged they were nearly driven mad.

They had originally planned to temporarily spare the Mushroom Civilization, only to be bitten back by these damned and feeble natives - a suicide mission.

Due to being at a disadvantage on both fronts, the Shell Clan Civilization could not attend to both ends and began to grow impulsive. They decided to first destroy Mushroom Star, even if they didn’t occupy it themselves, they would not allow Mushroom Civilization to continue existing in the Universe.

However, a momentary impulse made the Shell Clan Civilization overlook the Wandering Alliance that was lurking close by, waiting to strike. When one of their Battle Stars headed towards Mushroom Star, ready to launch a destructive blow, it was suddenly struck by a Quark Decoherence from Eternal Life No.1 Battle Star, disintegrating into nothingness in an instant.

This was like a space magic show performed by the Wandering Alliance for all civilizations, named "The Great Planet Change~!"

And at this moment in the space battle, the outcome was already crystal clear. With the rise of impulsive voices among the Shell Clan Civilization, they were inevitably hastening their own defeat.

Ultimately, the Wandering Alliance, with their advanced weapons and tactics, annihilated the Shell Clan Civilization without losing a single soldier.

Seeing the Wandering Alliance finally victorious in the space war, the whole Mushroom Civilization plunged into a global celebration. This joy was for the victory of the Wandering Alliance, and for themselves.

However, just as the Mushroom Civilization was indulging in global festivities, a crisis brought on by an electromagnetic wave was swiftly approaching.
