Warlord Chapter 153 - phagocytosis

The screen showed a dead planet. No, maybe only half.

Half of the planet's body had already disappeared. The entire body of the star was filled with a gray color. Countless star dust constantly leaked out from the planet, and then it began to disperse into the universe, as if it was the blood of planets scattered everywhere.

There were dark, cloud-like substances circling above the planet. In the midst of the black clouds descended many pillars of light. They were like tentacles that drilled into the planet, and within these pillars of light, sparkling blue spots constantly rose. They followed the cloud pillar and were sucked into the black cloud, as if they were the blood essence of a vampire.

A wave of understanding arose, those blue spots of light were the energy essence of the planet. And that black cloud looked like a devil eating the planet.

Eat it!

When Zero realized that he had used such a human-like word to describe this phenomenon, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Within the hologram, the scene changed once again.

For some reason, the black cloud suddenly withdrew the antennae that were reaching into the interior of the planet. Following that, it began to writhe nonstop, as if it was a gigantic ferocious beast turning its body. Countless lights burst out from the cloud, as if a ferocious beast had opened its eyes. Although it was just an inorganic scene in the light screen, Zero still felt his heart palpitate. A distinct prickling sensation could be felt on her skin. It was a sign of danger.

He had never thought that he would one day feel danger from certain scenes. But now, the danger signal was so clear that he almost shouted the word "run" to the observer in the light screen.

In the image, the dark cloud fruit seemed to have its own thoughts. It looked like a ferocious beast that had found its prey, and actually let go of the planet that had eaten half of its prey and floated towards the image.

It gave birth to a feeling of chills.

From the moment it let go of the asteroid and prepared to attack its new prey, this cloud-like object seemed to possess a certain amount of intelligence. Zero doesn't know what it is. Is it some intelligent alien life form? Or was it just a catastrophic substance?

He only knew that the speed of the black cloud seemed to be very slow, but in reality, it was extremely fast. However, in the blink of an eye, the area within the light screen had become a little larger. Following that, Zero heard all sorts of random sounds and roars that didn't mean anything.

The scene changed again.

This time it showed the interior of the ship. The light screen used a first-person view to look at the tunnel where Zero was. It was clear that the owner of the screen was the corpse on the ground, and what Zero was looking at was a record from an unknown period of time.

Soon, they reached the end of the passageway. After a burst of dazzling blue light, the screen showed a room similar to the one used by the spaceship. Dozens of tall humans were busily working in the operation room. The owner of the view appears above the ground in a position similar to a platform.

There was only one seat on the high platform, and a man's figure appeared behind the wide chair. As if aware of the presence of his host, he swiveled his chair, and the man was dressed in the same blue and white. The chest and the rest of the body were encased in the same crystal. The only difference was that in that distinctly European face, there were three diamond-shaped crystals glowing with a brilliant blue light.

Seeing this, Zero was shocked. These humans were much taller than the rest of the humans, and he was sure that they were once inhabitants of Earth. He just didn't know what era they were from, but no matter what, the scene in front of him had told him that in the history of Earth, there was once a civilization that had advanced technology. And humans living in this era already had the ability to explore the space outside of the Milky Way!

In the video, the man who seemed to be the captain and the owner of the camera were speaking in a language that he did not understand at all. In front of the high platform, there were three screens, one big and one small. In these three screens, the black, cloud-like substance had already approached and began to extend out from within like tentacles.

However, the humans had also begun their attacks. From the three screens, Zero could see beams of energy continuously shooting out. The moment they entered the black cloud, the material on the surface of the black cloud immediately sunk, followed by a phenomenon of annihilation. No matter what the black cloud was made of, once it was attacked by an energy flow, the attacked part would turn into particles, eventually turning into nothingness.

When Zero saw this, his pupils constricted.

The phenomenon on the black cloud, if there were no accidents, should be the result of the annihilation of the positive and negative forces. In other words, the energy flow from the spaceship should be close to cationic cannons. It was an energy attack weapon in the theoretical stage. Zero did not expect such a terrifying weapon to be installed on the spaceship.

A single cationic cannon was enough to annihilate a large scale city. How terrifying was that power?

In the video, the black cloud was constantly hit by the energy beams. However, it seemed to be able to repair its "body" indefinitely. The place where it was destroyed was soon filled with new material, and its speed did not decrease as it moved towards the spaceship. It welcomed the fierce fire from the human side.

At this moment, the screen in front of Zero flashed and then disappeared into the air. Soon after, the crystal in his chest suddenly cracked. When the crystal shattered, the battle uniform on Ling Chen's body immediately disintegrated, turning to gas, and finally disintegrating at the same time as the crystal. This caused Ling Chen endless pain.

He knew that the energy remaining in the crystal had finally been exhausted after the recording was played. That was why the battle uniform had been disintegrated into nothingness.

This made Zero a little bit regretful. He really wanted to know the result of Black Cloud's encounter with the spaceship. However, from the looks of it, the appearance of this spaceship on Earth did not seem to affect it much. However, more doubts appeared in Zero's mind. For example, when exactly was this human from? And with such advanced technology, why did they suddenly disappear into the history of Earth? Not even a little bit of information remained.

It was like a huge fault in civilization. Zero believed that as long as he could bring even the tiniest bit of information from this spaceship into the wilderness, mankind's present civilization would suffer a strong impact. However, he did not plan to do so. This spaceship would become his treasure. If he could decipher the technology and civilization on the spaceship, Zero could definitely become one of the top people in the world.

But right now, he wasn't prepared enough. Moreover, he also lacked the funds and talent to research spaceships. Before that, the bigger problem was how to get the ship out of the ground.

The ideal scenario would be for the spaceship to store energy to help it escape from the ground. Otherwise, the cost of excavation and salvage would be astronomical.

With hope that the spaceship could still move, Zero followed the footage he had just seen and continued along the tunnel. To get the ship moving, he had to at least get to the control center in the picture.
