Chapter 544 Crystal Valley
Chapter 544 Crystal Valley
A remote star field, originally an empty area without even a meteorite, has now turned into a hell on earth.
There are endless debris floating in the universe. Huge battleships as big as planets were cut into pieces by the terrifying attack, and the wreckage of space battleships is everywhere in the space.
Billions of stiff corpses were floating in the void, most of them were in tatters, and the few with intact heads had hideous and desperate expressions visible through the frost and blood on their faces.
In the airspace not far away, countless explosions and energy waves occurred, and flames and light enveloped the entire area.
Fleets of fully armed warships continued to jump in, while warships were constantly forced to evacuate for repairs, but more were destroyed on the spot and became part of the space junk in the area.
Those unmanned fighter jets have long ceased to exist, and only top-level fighters and powerful warships are qualified to participate in this war.
Of course, you are merely qualified to "participate".
Zheng Shu was in the center of the battlefield, wantonly unleashing his strength on the enemies around him. He no longer moved at high speed, but just stood there and quietly endured attacks from all sides.
Neither the high-speed assault ships nor the specially reinforced fighters of the Interstellar Alliance dared to get close to Zheng Shu anymore. They just stayed far away and used various energy cannons for long-range attacks.
This is not because the members of the Interstellar Alliance are afraid of death. As perhaps the most elite force in the entire galaxy, they will never retreat even if they know they are carrying out a mission that will result in their death.
But even so, these people don't want to die for no reason.
As for the reason, you can understand it by looking at the debris floating around Zheng Shu.
Completely different from the debris and corpses elsewhere that were filled with the aura of destruction and devastation, the debris scattered around Zheng Shu was all made of crystals.
The fragile crystal was turned into debris by the aftermath of the explosion of various energy cannons. The scattered debris reflected the bright light of various energy cannons. For a moment, the area around Zheng Shu even felt like a dream.
But for those who have seen how these crystals were formed, what is inside is the most horrifying hell, a nightmare that they can never escape from in this lifetime - if they can leave this battlefield alive.
At this moment, a warship failed to dodge in time, and the engine at the rear was hit by the edge of the light blade thrown by Zheng Shu. The warship, which was flying at full speed, suddenly lost control and swayed towards Zheng Shu's vicinity.
"don't want!!!"
Seeing that the battleship they were on was about to rush into the beautiful area composed of crystals, the commander and other controllers on the battleship showed despair on their faces.
But before they could react further, the battleship had already rushed into the range of the crystal.
Of course, the fragile crystals could not withstand such an impact. Wherever the warship passed, the slightly larger crystals shattered into large pieces.
At the same time, inexplicable crystal clusters began to appear on the battleship. Various small equipment independent of the main body of the battleship were the first to be affected, and the originally black metal quickly transformed into crystal.
Before that, all the personnel inside the battleship had already been completely turned into crystals after rushing into the crystal field.
As the warship got closer and closer to Zheng Shu due to the force of inertia, the erosion of crystallization became faster and faster, and large areas of crystallization had begun to appear on the main body of the warship.
When the crystallization began to affect the engine and power reactor components, the unbalanced energy finally exploded. The dazzling flames illuminated the surrounding crystal fragments, making them look even more beautiful.
After the entire battleship was blown into pieces, the speed of its crystallization accelerated rapidly. Almost in the blink of an eye, these broken pieces turned into huge crystals again and added to the crystals around Zheng Shu.
"monster……"
Everyone who saw this scene, even though they had seen this kind of thing many times since Zheng Shu transformed into Ort, still couldn't help but mutter this word in a low voice.
This is a power that is totally incomprehensible!
No matter what kind of protection or interference the people of the Interstellar Alliance use, no matter how strong or weak they are, how high or low their energy is, or how solid the material is, as long as they get close to each other within a certain range, all inorganic and organic matter will be transformed into crystals.
These transformed crystals look very fragile. Judging from the samples obtained by some people at the risk of their lives, there should be nothing special about them. They are not just crystals with very fragile physical properties.
But for this reason, the effectiveness of all missiles, electromagnetic cannons, or similar physical attacks against this monster will be greatly reduced.
This is because these physical attack methods will become crystallized as long as they get close enough to the opponent, and there is naturally no comparison between fragile crystals and solid metal shells.
As a result, the Interstellar Alliance's counterattack against Zheng Shu can only be to use energy cannons from a distance. However, judging from the opponent's actions when it first appeared and the subsequent battle, the silver-white shell made of unknown material has a terrifyingly high resistance to energy.
Even if it was hit directly by the main gun of a planetary-class armed battleship, the opponent could easily withstand it, and there wouldn't even be a scratch on the shell.
Moreover, once the density of the energy attack falls below a certain lower limit, it will not only not cause any damage, but will instead replenish energy for the opponent.
Based on the above situations, the Interstellar Alliance can now be said to be completely helpless.
Incomprehensible, irresistible!
If this monster hadn't been standing in the center of the battlefield for some reason, the opponent would probably have won the battle just by flying back and forth across the front line.
The current behavior between the Interstellar Alliance and Zheng Shu is more like a one-sided massacre than a war.
By now, the commanders of those planetary-class armed warships have basically realized that the monster before them is simply teasing them.
Although they didn't know the reason, they were very clear that they had no way out.
If they continued to maintain this status quo, they might still have the option of waiting until the monsters got bored of killing and then leaving. However, if they retreated and angered the monsters, they would surely die.
On the other hand, Zheng Shu, who was at the center of the battlefield, was not in the mood to understand the despair in the hearts of these commanders.
If he knew what these guys were thinking, Zheng Shu would definitely cry out that he was wronged.
He was now completely immersed in exploring Ort's power. Not to mention consciously playing with the enemies outside, even his attacks were mostly natural counterattacks like conditioned reflexes.
When Zheng Shu was in the Type-Moon world, he was busy fighting Ort. After he finally won, his mind had been distorted to the extreme, so he had no time to experience Ort's power.
In the world of Under One Person, Zheng Shu was able to fully and carefully experience the uniqueness of Ort's power only after he made up for the deficiencies in his own cultivation of his mind and character.
It was under such circumstances that Zheng Shu was able to discover things that he had not noticed before.
For example, these crystals around his body now.
Crystal Valley, one of Ort's unique abilities, is classified as an erosion-type inherent barrier in the Type-Moon world.
Although the name contains the word "inherent barrier", Crystal Valley is completely not on the same level as ordinary inherent barriers, and it can even be said that they are completely different in nature.
The ability is simple. Wherever Ort exists, the environment there will change towards the most suitable environment for it to live in.
The specific external manifestation is the area made of crystal surrounding Zheng Shu's body, which is an alien landscape that is both beautiful and terrifying.
But the level of this skill is actually quite high. In essence, it is a tampering with the surrounding physical laws.
When Zheng Shu faced Ort's ability, he was immune to tampering with the laws because he had the divine armor on him.
However, when faced with interstellar alliances that have no ability to resist the laws, the horror of this ability is revealed.
Zheng Shu was just standing here, and the people from the Interstellar Alliance were completely powerless.
He doesn't need to make any unnecessary movements or consume any energy. Crystal Valley is a completely passive ability for Zheng Shu.
His mere existence could turn anyone who dared to intrude within a certain distance into crystal.
Moreover, when Zheng Shu was exploring this ability, he discovered another more advanced use. If necessary, he could use the power of the Crystal Valley to modify the surrounding physical laws in a targeted manner, and thus achieve the desired results to a certain extent.
Moreover, there is no consumption in using this ability. Simply put, if Zheng Shu wants to tamper with certain physical laws in a targeted manner, he only needs to weaken the power of his Crystal Valley.
However, apart from Crystal Valley, which is more worthy of development, the only useful special ability is probably the ability to partially mimic creatures that have been preyed upon.
However, Zheng Shu has not yet found anything in this world that is worth devouring, so he cannot explore this power. As for the rest...
"Completely immune to magic attacks, only physical damage. There is no concept of death. Even if the main body is destroyed by strong physical damage, it will only stop for a period of time and then restart... These things are more like racial characteristics than special abilities."
Several limbs on Zheng Shu's body kept jumping and slashing like nerve reflexes, scaring the surrounding warships into panic. At the same time, he touched his chin with a few thinner limbs as he thought.
"So apart from the Mercury Valley and the ability to mimic, Ort doesn't seem to have any other special powers worth noting."
Zheng Shu moved his body, feeling the results of his exploration, his expression looked a little strange - if his expression could still change now.
If we ignore the Crystal Valley and the ability of mimicry, then the other abilities that Ort can use normally are probably just terrifyingly strong strength, speed, and defensive reaction ability...
Simply put, judging from the composition of his combat power, this guy is a pure numerical monster!
Not only does it have an excellent ability mechanism, but it also has pure numbers and pure power.
"If you think about it this way, even though this guy looks weird, he does fit my aesthetic of strength."
Thinking of this, Zheng Shu stretched out a slender limb and scratched his chest.
Just now, three planet-class armed warships abandoned all cover and came side by side to the airspace in front of Zheng Shu, launching a salvo at Zheng Shu with their three main guns.
As for the effect, Zheng Shu probably felt that his "shell" was a little itchy.
After all, his body is completely immune to magic, and naturally has strong immunity to some energy attacks.
After taking a look at the three planet-class armed warships lined up side by side, Zheng Shu raised his longest limb.
It was as if the frames of the film had been artificially removed. By the time everyone reacted, Zheng Shu's limb had already swung down.
No one knew when he swung his limbs, and even the most advanced high-speed camera on a planet-class armed battleship could not reveal any clues in slow motion.
The only thing that the people of the Interstellar Alliance could see was an unimaginably huge blade of light sweeping towards the three planetary armed warships.
"Deploy the shield with all your strength and activate the shield resonance frequency!"
The commander who had the top-level intelligent brain implanted in his brain reacted the fastest. The three commanders quickly issued orders to their subordinates, and they also used their commander's authority to quickly mobilize the power of the warship.
Dazzling shield lights lit up on the three planetary-class armed warships. Under the coordination of the supercomputer, the edges of the shields of the three planetary-class armed warships merged together to form a more solid and heavy light shield.
This is the so-called shield co-frequency. Previously, a group of small warships used this method to condense their own shields into a huge sphere, blocking the energy impact that was enough to trigger a black hole.
Now that it is used by three planet-class armed battleships, it is not only more powerful, but also because it has abandoned the rear protection and only needs to defend in one direction, the shield energy level will become more terrifying.
Under everyone's tense gaze, the huge slash and the thick energy shield collided with each other, bursting out with intense light.
The strong energy fluctuations interfered with the operation of the reconnaissance equipment, causing the display screens of the surrounding warships to appear black for a short period of time with unstable signals.
After the image reappeared on the monitor, the entire battlefield fell into a brief silence.
Good news, it was blocked.
The bad news was not completely blocked.
The thick energy shields in front of the three planetary-class armed warships had long disappeared, replaced by extremely terrifying-looking tear marks on the three warships.
With the main guns as the center, the three battleships were torn horizontally, the smallest battleship was torn by more than half of its diameter, and the largest battleship was torn by nearly one-third.
Thanks to the huge size of the planet-class armed battleships, these three battleships can continue to operate even if they suffer serious damage enough to knock other battleships offline, but they have completely lost the possibility of continuing to fight.
"Not bad!"
Zheng Shu looked at his own limbs and nodded with satisfaction. Then he glanced in a certain direction and sneered in his heart.
His body turned into a silver-white stream of light and he took the initiative to attack the interstellar alliance forces in front of him.
For a moment, the interstellar joint forces that had been able to barely form a formation were completely defeated. Although they tried their best to resist, they were still helpless in the face of Zheng Shu's overwhelming power.
Soon, under Zheng Shu's wanton slaughter, the Interstellar Alliance's forces collapsed across the board.
The number of casualties is difficult to count; even the damage data of various advanced warships are calculated in billions.
Even the planetary armed warships, which are the ultimate weapons of advanced civilizations, were not spared. More than 20 planetary armed battleships were completely torn apart by Zheng Shu. Only one warship was left, dragging its broken hull, and it fled in panic while Zheng Shu was suppressing other warships.
Looking at the warships that were already fleeing into outer space, Zheng Shu's fast-moving body finally stopped.
Due to the existence of Crystal Valley's ability, the battlefield where he killed people was not as tragic as other battlefields, but instead appeared beautiful.
Countless crystals are scattered in this area with a diameter of five light minutes. From time to time, large pieces of crystals collide with each other, some will scatter, and some will regroup.
Perhaps after an unimaginably long time, a planet made entirely of crystal will form here.
"Alright, do you still want to keep watching? I've killed almost all of your men."
