Chapter 1241: Chapter 697, Destroy Reiaductus (13)
Whether itâs the Thunder Giant Bear or the Heroic Spirit Warrior, all are the work of Gu Hang.
Back then, during the Battle of Bowang Sea, he could carry a Neuron Progeny and deploy hundreds of thousands of heroic spirits onto the enemyâs Mechanical Ark, supporting them in combat.
Although at that time, the Neuron Progeny was controlled and enslaved, unable to fully demonstrate combat power, far inferior to Gu Hang now, who needs to simultaneously confront two complete and frenzy-like progenies.
However, Gu Hang is not what he used to be. After consuming multiple Neuron Progenies, gaining much replenishment, his spiritual energy intensity and power in Storm God Kingdom are much stronger than before.
While simultaneously confronting two fully powerful, even frantically reckless Neuron Progenies, Gu Hang can not only gain complete advantage but also has some spare power to tear open a Subspace Rift, deploying heroic spirits to maintain the combat demands of these spirits.
Moreover, even the heroic spirits have become stronger.
Tens of thousands of ordinary heroic spirits arenât much different, in scale and quality, compared to the Battle of Bowang Sea; however, those Thunder Giant Bears are a new trick.
Each Thunder Giant Bear possesses combat strength akin to Holy Master Worms. Although their numbers are relatively few, only seventeen or eighteen, fewer than the Biological Titans of the Insect Race, but a fierce rush on both sides enabled them to hold back the Titans.
Even when the Queen panicked, seemingly instructing these Biological Titans and lower-level Insect Species to desperately charge in, they could not break through the interception in a short time.
On the other side of the Spiritual Ability Battlefield, Gu Hang had already achieved a crucial victory first.
A Neuron Progeny was defeated, torn apart by Gu Hang on the spiritual power level.
At this moment, the surviving one ended up completely defeated.
Under pressure that neither progeny could bear, what can it do?
Simply couldnât withstand, a few breaths later it was about to perish.
The Queen also realized this.
She directly opened the Subspace Shadow, attempting to isolate Gu Hang outside.
On this point, the Void Insect Species really seemed to cheat. When their spiritual ability prevailed, they opened the Subspace Shadow for asymmetric warfare; when at a disadvantage, they used the Subspace Shadow to block spiritual power for a fair fight.
Shameless.
However, they donât have concepts like shame, naturally doing it this way.
Especially when itâs a matter of life and death.
But...
"Do you decide not to play anymore?"
Gu Hang smirked, fully exerting his spiritual power.
Despite the suppression from the Subspace Shadow, some of his spiritual prowess was still penetrating into the surface of Reiaductus.
This power was not particularly strong, the Subspace Shadow still formidable. The surviving Neuron Progeny near the Queen couldnât extend any spiritual power.
Under the Subspace Shadow, Gu Hang certainly couldnât maintain the heroic spirit army to continue fighting.
But, itâs okay, as long as the Skyburn Torpedoâs detonation facility can be triggered.
When the fire appeared, the nearest Void Insect Species had reached within just below a hundred meters from the Skyburn Torpedo.
However, this became the impassable barrier.
Fire expanded supersonically towards the surroundings, covering the entire battlefield within less than a breath.
Massive Insect Race troops immediately carbonized under the thousands of degrees of high temperature.
Accompanying them in the fiery destruction were the few surviving human soldiers.
The unrelenting fire and high temperatures didnât care about what they engulfed, only sweeping all air, structures, fragile materials with increasing speed.
Gu Hang retrieved his spiritual power, quietly observing the distant yellow-green planet.
One or two minutes later, Gu Hang saw a glimmer of fire, insignificant compared to the entire planetâs surface, just a tiny speck.
Yet it continued expanding at a visible rate.
After twenty minutes, half of the planet side visible to Gu Hang was already ablaze.
An hour later, the fire engulfed the entire planetâs atmosphere, burning every inch of Reiaductusâs land.
The entire planet would become a fiercely burning âfireballâ in the universe.
The planetâs atmosphere and ocean were in flames, every creature and flammable matter on the planet were engulfed in the burning.
This conflagration would last a month before gradually cooling down, leaving nothing but ashes on the planetâs surface.
And at the moment the entire planet was covered in flames, the Queen, who had been in the fierce blaze for over fifteen minutes, finally ceased all activity.
The most direct indication was those Tyranid Bug Race biological ships engaged in combat with the Human Empire Navy near the planetâs outer orbit. They ceased action, firing instinctively, but slightly moving away or changing position where direct observation was impossible, they simply stayed stagnant.
Another indication was the rapid dissipation of the encompassing Subspace Shadow.
With these two indicators, it could be basically confirmed that the Queen was dead.
The Human Fleet began to act, exterminating those Insect Nest biological ships close to the orbit.
Insect Nest biological ships, in terms of distance, were certainly closer to the planet than the Human Fleet. When the planet was ignited, many got engulfed.
However, a few positioned further out still existed.
But once entirely disabled, these biological ships would become extremely easy to deal with, eliminated casually without much cost.
Such battles didnât catch Gu Hangâs attention.
His focus still remained on the surface of Reiaductus.
The widespread burning would create heavy interference with spiritual energy detection; even Gu Hang needs to wait until it cools down later.
Actually, the Queenâs last action surprised him a bit.
Not the final struggle.
That was expected.
But after failing to struggle?
The Queen seemingly resigned herself.
But in fact, Gu Hang thought she would struggle a few more times.
She had several window periods, could have escaped to the biotic ships in orbit.
Although the Queen is typically very large, since her functional genetics need to maintain a complex, massive body for incubation and gene compiling, if she wanted to act, she could have discarded non-essential parts, lightened up, boarded a biological ship and fled.
Of course, she couldnât truly escape.
Without the threat of ground orbital cannons, the Human Fleet, much stronger than the Insect Race Fleet, would annihilate her in subsequent pursuit battles, never surviving to rendezvous with the âtentacleâ arriving support army.
She herself should also be aware.
But awareness aside, wouldnât she even try?
