CHAPTER 413: CHAPTER 412: DEEP-SEATED HATRED

The Metal Civilization had already been cornered into a relatively small range, fighting like trapped beasts.

But suddenly, amidst the advancing Titan Civilization’s army of Battle Stars, a series of disturbances broke out; from above, one could see a succession of explosions occurring within the Titan Civilization’s camp.

Boom!

The source of the explosions were the Titan Civilization’s very own Battle Stars, the main force as well as the affiliated Battle Stars almost simultaneously exploding, their lifeforms vanishing in smoke and flame along with the Battle Stars!

This sudden and unexpected turn of events not only left the Metal Civilization bewildered, even the Titan Civilization itself was completely baffled.

The leader of the Titan Civilization, Constant Star Unrivaled, immediately started to observe closely and ordered the unaffected Battle Stars to find out the cause.

During the detailed observation, Constant Star Unrivaled witnessed black giant swords flying about amid the explosive flames and seemed to realize something, becoming furiously angry in an instant.

Just then, Constant Star Unrivaled also received an investigation report from the surviving Battle Stars.

The investigation reported that a total of three hundred Battle Stars of the Titan Civilization had exploded suddenly, and each Battle Star had been destroyed by the nearby Wandering duplicates, and furthermore, the many duplicates that Wandering had previously split off during the war, after abruptly destroying the first batch of Battle Stars, immediately turned to attack the surviving Battle Stars.

Now, the surviving Battle Stars are desperately trying to evade the pursuit of Wandering’s duplicates.

"Wandering, you scoundrel, you’re really courting death!" Upon learning the reason, Constant Star Unrivaled was instantly seething with rage, his Constant Star Body’s luminance appearing somewhat intensified.

Bang!

Constant Star Unrivaled, in his fury, fired a high energy level Crown Hole Radiation beam at the nearest Wandering duplicate, but it was ultimately dodged by the already alert Wandering duplicate.

Watching his strike miss, Constant Star Unrivaled could not contain his rage and roared, "Damn it, to think I fell for your trap!"

"Constant Star Unrivaled, don’t blame me. This is, after all, a universe where the strong prey on the weak. Since you wanted to scheme against me, then I’m simply playing a counter-scheme against your scheme. Now you’re merely reaping what you’ve sown!" In this moment, Wandering shed its cloak-and-dagger guise.

It turned out that Wandering’s previous cooperation with the Titan Civilization to eliminate the Metal Civilization was just a ruse, aimed at gaining a certain level of trust from the Titan Civilization before taking the opportunity to deal them a heavy blow.

Because Wandering knew that even if it stayed with the Metal Civilization, their battle capabilities would only be an even match, but if it could infiltrate the Titan Civilization and take the opportunity to heavily damage them, it would be more beneficial in ending the war.

It was with this thought in mind that Wandering pretended to make a decisive break, and cooperated with the Titan Civilization.

Indeed, Constant Star Unrivaled had initially also doubted Wandering’s true intent, but unfortunately for him, Wandering’s acting was too convincing, and coupled with the fact that it was extraordinarily hard-working when facing off against the Metal Civilization’s Battle Stars, the Titan Civilization let down its guard slightly. Regrettably, it was this moment of negligence that Wandering seized to catch them off guard.

Moreover, it was precisely because it had anticipated this scenario that Wandering had intentionally split off three hundred duplicates before the battle, each duplicate having a mass of around sixty-six Planet Masses. After gaining a certain level of trust from the Titan Civilization, it let the three hundred duplicates infiltrate their ranks and then took the chance to simultaneously launch a surprise attack, which successfully destroyed over three hundred of the Titan Civilization’s Battle Stars.

Otherwise, if we were to take on the Titan Civilization’s three hundred Battle Stars head-on, it would be anyone’s guess when they could be destroyed!

"Damn it, if I don’t obliterate you today, the hatred in my heart won’t be quenched!" Constant Star Unrivaled roared with boundless anger and murderous intent. As he spoke, he charged towards the nearest Wandering avatar, ordering all of the Titan Civilization’s Battle Stars to focus on annihilating Wandering first.

At this very moment, his hatred for Wandering ran bone-deep, bone-deep, bone-deep!

However, what Constant Star Unrivaled never expected was that, as he approached an avatar of Wandering, all nearby avatars of Wandering also suddenly converged upon him, forming a besieging formation.

In the end, the three hundred avatars of Wandering formed a relatively uniform array surrounding the enormous Constant Star Unrivaled at the center, with every three avatars grouped together - the one in the innermost part dealing directly with Constant Star Unrivaled, while the two outer avatars guarded against the harassment of other Battle Stars from the Titan Civilization.

From a universal perspective, this scene looked as if three hundred Planet Giant Swords composed a Star Ring Sword Formation, besieging the massive luminous sphere in the center—spectacular and shocking!

"Hehe, looking at your earnestness, do you really think you can defeat me just by outnumbering me with avatars?"

Seeing the extremely earnest Wandering, Constant Star Unrivaled couldn’t help but laugh out loud. To belittle Wandering and vent the maliciousness in his heart, Constant Star Unrivaled intentionally demeaned and mocked him.

In response to Constant Star Unrivaled’s taunts, Wandering didn’t answer and remained composed. A Celestial Body Capture Device quietly emerged at the tip of one avatar’s sword. This device had been seized from the Metal Civilization in a previous battle, and Wandering had kept it hidden inside until the right moment to stealthily take it out, planning to capture Constant Star Unrivaled inside the device in one fell swoop.

This was the complete plan Wandering had devised to defeat the Titan Civilization.

He was very clear that even if they truly destroyed the Titan Civilization’s three hundred Battle Stars, it would only weaken their combat power and not instantly win the war. Therefore, the best method was to capture the leader first, hence Wandering devised a two-step plan. The first step was to use a surprise attack to enrage Constant Star Unrivaled, and then take advantage of Constant Star Unrivaled’s loss of reason from anger to quietly capture him with the Celestial Body Capture Device.

It must be said that Wandering’s series of plans were very good.

Unfortunately, the Celestial Body Capture Device required a certain amount of time to use, and the spatial cuts caused noticeable fluctuations.

Therefore, Constant Star Unrivaled noticed the source of the fluctuations immediately. He saw one of Wandering’s avatars transforming into two mechanical arms, attempting to control a Celestial Body Capture Device and capture him.

"Hmph, how naive! The Celestial Body Capture Device is basically ineffective against me. You’re going to die!" After saying that, Constant Star Unrivaled directly used a Gravity Black Hole and attacked the avatar that was controlling the Celestial Body Capture Device.

Since the avatar was busy with the Celestial Body Capture Device and couldn’t dodge in time, it was directly hit by the Gravity Black Hole, disintegrating into particles, with the Capture Device also getting destroyed.

At the same time, this also marked the failure of Wandering’s second step of the plan.

After Wandering’s second step of the plan failed, his best opportunity was lost. By this time, a large number of Battle Stars from the Titan Civilization had rapidly encircled, trapping all avatars of Wandering with no way out. However, fortunately, Wandering was not alone in the battle. Once the Metal Civilization realized that Wandering had been feigning cooperation all along, they immediately became overjoyed and, in coordination with Wandering inside and outside, launched a second counter-offensive against the Titan Civilization!

In an instant, a ferocious battle erupted once more, with the blaze of explosions sweeping across the sky!
