Chapter 27: Civilization Counterattack
Terrifying rule power erupted.
"Buzz!"
Rule and order descended, completely erasing the two black holes on the planet according to the Star Lord's will.
Erased in the true sense, disappearing without a trace, leaving behind only the tattered surface of the planet.
"Pfft——"
The Star Lord suffered a backlash; as the rules descended within him, even his powerful divine body couldn't withstand the destruction of order.
Golden divine blood spilled onto the ground, and where it landed, flowers and plants grew luxuriantly.
"My Lord..."
Olier said with great concern.
"It's fine... a necessary backlash..."
The Star Lord waved his hand, signaling not to worry. Even if it was painful, he wouldn't show it here, for where would his dignity be?
He temporarily suppressed the injuries in his body with divine power, his expression solemn.
He hadn't expected the invading civilization this time to be a Technology Civilization. This wasn't good. If it were a low-level Technology Civilization, it wouldn't be much of a problem, causing him little harm.
But once Technology reached a certain level, even the Gods would fear it, just like what had just happened.
Although he could withstand it without injury, his Civilization couldn't. He could only erase it through rule and order, but the cost was enormous.
The entire Goblin Civilization suffered severe soul damage. The weak ones directly became idiots, and the stronger ones would also have their cultivation regress.
Now the key question was how many more such attacks the opponent could launch, or were these two attacks the full extent of their Technology?
His eyes flickered. His side was already severely wounded and couldn't let the opponent know their situation.
"Olier, lead the believers and continue the charge! Do not let the opponent enter our World, and do not let them figure out our strength!"
He planned to rely on the number of Goblins to hold out for these hundred years. As for Plunder?
How could he be in the mood to Plunder now? His own base was almost destroyed. He just wanted to quickly end this hundred-year cycle and run away!
Once the portal closed, the opponent wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
"Ah, this? My Lord, many of our believers are already severely injured. If we attack again, it will just be sending them to their deaths..."
Olier hesitated.
The Star Lord glanced at him indifferently: "Necessary sacrifices are unavoidable at times of Civilization survival. I believe that after their deaths, their souls will enter my Divine Kingdom and live eternally within it."
"Yes..."
Olier said bitterly. They, who had initiated the Plunder, were now facing a time when they had to sacrifice a large number of their people just to survive. It was simply ridiculous.
Seeing that the opponent was preparing to follow his instructions, the Star Lord no longer lingered. He needed to hide and recuperate, so as not to be detected by the opponent's Star Lord.
...
Earth Star, Command Center.
Everyone didn't know what was happening on the other side of the portal. Seeing the constant stream of Goblin armies emerging, several people exchanged glances.
"High Priest, did the opponent easily block our Dark Matter Nuclear Bomb?"
Zhuo Yuanming didn't answer, but was thinking, watching the monitoring screen, carefully analyzing all the information.
"Enlarge the screen. The situation of these armies is a bit strange."
Everyone followed Zhuo Yuanming's instructions.
The screen showed the figure of a Goblin. This Goblin was baring its teeth and claws, its green face full of ferocity. There were no visible injuries on its body, but its expression showed that it seemed to have been severely wounded.
"High Priest, is there a problem?"
Everyone was puzzled. It was just a monster with a ferocious face.
Zhuo Yuanming shook his head: "The opponent couldn't have taken the power of the Dark Matter Nuclear Bomb without injury. They must have used some method we don't know to block it, and the opponent was also severely wounded.
Use big data monitoring and analysis on all Goblin figures to see if all Goblins are like this."
"Yes!"
Everyone followed suit. The powerful artificial intelligence began to operate, and tens of thousands of Goblin figures were continuously scanned, analyzed, and recorded.
In just a moment, the analysis results came out.
[Total number of monsters: 4,763,211.]
[Big data calibration...]
[All targets have no external injuries...]
[All monsters exhibit expressions of pain...]
[Inference... This number of monsters has suffered brain trauma...]
"Heh..."
Zhuo Yuanming smiled. So that was it. One or two Goblins showing pain was a coincidence, but if all Goblins were like this, then things weren't simple.
"According to my guess, the opponent probably used some kind of forbidden technique to block our attack, but the backlash from the forbidden technique also made them suffer.
And now the opponent is immediately sending out a large army to attack us, precisely to make us think they haven't suffered much damage, thereby paralyzing us."
"So that's how it is!"
Everyone exclaimed. In that case, all explanations made sense. The opponent must have been severely wounded and wanted to paralyze their judgment by sending out a wounded army to attack them, so that they would miss the best time to attack.
"High Priest! The opponent may not have adjusted yet. Should we launch an invasion attack?"
Zhuo Yuanming smiled slightly, very satisfied to see that everyone understood. It wasn't too late: "Of course! The advantage in this battle is with us! It's time to let them see our true strength. Those who dare to invade our World will surely come and not return!"
"Another wave of nuclear weapon baptism! Clear the battlefield!"
"Send out the mechanical legion again! Find out the situation of the opponent's World!"
Zhuo Yuanming issued the command.
"Yes!"
Amidst everyone's shouts, the nuclear bomb was launched again: "My Lord's divine might!"
"Whoosh!"
Battlefield.
The Goblin army stared blankly at the nuclear bomb heading towards them, one by one at a loss.
They had already learned through word of mouth that the power of the nuclear bomb was something they absolutely couldn't block.
Fortunately, this time Olier had dispatched several Chiefs to each attack point.
The Chiefs chanted incantations and activated super-tier magic.
Magic arrays bloomed with light, tightly protecting the Goblin army.
"Boom——!!!"
The first nuclear bomb detonated, and cracks appeared in the barrier.
"Boom——!!!"
With two nuclear bombs, the barrier completely shattered.
They overdrawn their life force and activated super-tier magic again. After enduring two more nuclear bombs with great difficulty, the exhausted Chiefs knelt on the ground.
All beings are equal under the nuclear bomb...
"Boom——!!!"
After the smoke and dust dissipated, all that remained was an empty battlefield. All the Goblin army had turned to ash under the nuclear bomb.
"Mechanical army, attack!"
The Human Race began to counterattack. Large numbers of mechanical legions quickly reached the battlefield. The opposing Goblin army wanted to regain control.
But as soon as they stepped out of the portal, they were met with various artillery bombardments.
Hundreds of millions of mechanical armies began to pour into the portal.
The entire Goblin army was directly suppressed and continuously retreated, completely losing control of the portal.
