Cultivation towards immortality, starting from being a fisherman

It's wartime now, and if they mess up at this critical moment, the entire team will face the consequences.

The elder officer took a few breaths, shook his head, and was about to reassure his subordinates that he was fine and urge them to focus on their duties.

They were responsible for operating various logistical unmanned machines within the mothership.

So they could promptly resolve any transport malfunctions that the smart brain couldn't handle for various reasons.

An image of a pale face, like a corpse, flashed in the elder officer's mind.

This startled the elder officer once again.

Then, the elder officer suddenly felt that this face was somewhat familiar.

That was... his youngest son!

The son who was serving in the fleet with him, the one he had repeatedly warned not to take risks and to remember the escape routes before the expedition!

The elder officer had an ominous feeling; though unaware of the specific situation, he moved his lips as a bad notion formed in his mind.

The elder officer thought it to be a telepathic connection, on the verge of tears, when...

He suddenly felt the face in his mind become clearer.

And the familiar yet distant voice of his youngest son echoed in his ears:

"Help me, Father!"

"Father, it hurts so much, please help me! Help me!"

In a daze, the elder officer murmured a response.

At once!

The light around the elder officer suddenly dimmed.

Right after, a massive evil spirit emerged from the elder officer's back, instantly occupying the cramped logistics prep room.

The subordinates of the elder officer had no time to react, as if plunged into water, unable to breathe or make a sound within the evil spirit, their eyes wide with a sense of agony.

They could do nothing else.

Once again, the bodies of these subordinates and the elder officer turned into desiccated corpses.

Adding several more heads to the evil spirit's form.

Relying on the bloodline connection.

The evil spirits left the stripped Varo spaceship, reaching a new vessel.

Just like cancer cells, they kept multiplying, destroying everything.

The method of action of the evil spirits.

Once again caught the high command and experts of the Empire's fleet by surprise.

Very quickly, as the battle on the field continued.

Some human-shaped mechas broke through defenses, reaching effective range, then launched an attack with talismans.

These talismans, like before, produced a batch of evil spirits within the spaceship that could instantaneously teleport by tracing bloodlines.

Some caused the spaceship crew to lose their sanity, turning them into madmen who began killing each other and willfully damaging the ship.

Some crew members turned directly into bloodthirsty monsters, staging a battle royale aboard the spaceship.

No matter what effect the talismans had.

As long as they hit successfully.

It basically meant there was no rescue for the Empire spaceship's crew.

The ship itself was also doomed to destruction.

"This is absurd! It's sheer madness!"

"How could the enemy possess such incredible weaponry!"

"Ignoring our spaceship's exterior, bypassing our security protocols, able to destroy our warship with a single strike!"

"Not just one, those semi-transparent monsters are extremely troublesome, apart from knowing that their space jumps usually occur where victims' friends and family are present, we know nothing else."

"We don't even know if these space jumps they're performing have limits on frequency or timing."

An Empire expert wiped the sweat from his brow and muttered softly:

"If there are no limits, I believe we've already lost this skirmish."

"The other party can simply retreat from the battlefield at this moment and watch us slowly be destroyed by those monsters."

Hearing the Empire expert's words, the commander of this fleet.

Initially, he wanted to refute them and boost morale.

A report, however, shattered his intentions.

It turned out that the flagship had also been discovered being invaded by semi-transparent monsters.

Against that semi-transparent monster, crew members and unmanned drones immediately used every weapon available within the ship's limits.

Electromagnetic and high-temperature weapons were somewhat effective.

But the weapons' limits within the ship couldn't eliminate the enemy.

And the enemy could often quickly react.

Allowing its semi-transparent body to penetrate floors, ceilings, or walls and suddenly attack the crew and unmanned drones.

Weakening the resistance more and more.

Empire's leaders shouted for continued fighting without fear for the Empire.

Yet their bodies joined the experts in quickly boarding dozens of small ships to escape the flagship.

After being invaded by the evil spirits, even the flagship couldn't give the highly informed Empire leaders a sense of security anymore.

The fleet commander sat in the escape ship, gazing at the ever-blooming lights across the starry sky on the panel.

The Commander in Chief sighed:

"Continuing this battle is too much of a disadvantage for us."

"Deploy all drones to delay the enemy."

"The remaining ships... initiate the self-destruction protocol if experiencing unknown intrusion, and crew members should evacuate."

"If there are no abnormalities, immediately withdraw and enter the space node."

After issuing this difficult order.

The Commander in Chief suddenly shook, seeing a nearby Varo Spaceship also evacuating that burst into flames.

Then that spaceship broke apart from the middle.

Revealing inside an Evil Spirit covered in heads.

Then, the broken spaceship exploded due to the self-destruction program, turning into a fireball enveloping the Evil Spirit.

The fleet Commander in Chief, Zhang Dazui, trembled slightly:

"Have those monsters caught up with us?"

"How did they get here, can they really keep performing space jumps?"

In terror, the Commander in Chief suddenly felt his body stiffen.

It was then he heard his adjutant nearby suddenly look up, muttering in a confused voice:

"Help you? How do you want me to help you?"

"..."

"Open fire, kill him!"

In the Commander's mind flashed the surveillance images from the ships.

Suddenly moved by intuition, he immediately opened his mouth to issue an order.

The guard beside them didn't hesitate to raise his weapon and shot the adjutant into a hornets' nest.

It seemed the action was correct.

The Commander felt the surrounding temperature return, gasping for breath with a smile.

Intending to broadcast this method when.

From the rear half of the ship, dense screams suddenly rang out.

The Commander stiffened again, turning to look at the back hatch.

As quiet settled over the area inside.

A few breaths later.

At the moment the Commander was ready to escape with two guards to the evacuation pod.

A translucent shadow suddenly burst out from the left side of the wall.

Instantly grabbing the Commander and the remaining crew in the cabin.

"No!"

"I am a General of the Silver Heart Empire!"

"I can negotiate on behalf of the Empire with your civilization!"

"Save me! Save me!"

In the final moment, the Commander cried out in shock.

And then... he was completely engulfed by the Evil Spirit.

And quickly turned into a dried corpse.

The flagship was attacked; the upper echelons' fates were unknown.

Other ships in the pitch-black fleet were shaken in morale, with spirits dropping.

Many ships ignored the risk of attack, braving the artillery to try to escape.

Some ship captains connected with some evacuation ships and learned the truth.

Then, knowing that the Commander's escape ship had lost contact, fearing the worst.

Seeing a human-shaped Mecha rapidly approaching, breaking through the blockade.

Before that human-shaped Mecha could attack.

The captains of these ships decisively issued orders to broadcast surrender signals.

"Surrender?"

"They chose to surrender?"

A pilot of a Mecha Chixiao, seeing the signal from the ship about to enter effective range.

Opened his mouth, hesitated a moment, but decided to report it, issuing a command for the opponent to cease fire.

And indeed, the opponent was not tricking, truly choosing to cease fire, becoming a target ship.

Qingzhu hovered around the time-space node.

Overlooking the battlefield, nothing could escape its Dharma Eye.

Seeing the Transcendent Talisman excelled, worth calling a dimensionality reduction strike.

Qingzhu felt more assured.

Then seeing the remaining parts of the fleeing pitch-black fleet.

Qingzhu grinned, materializing into its own green giant snake Dharma Aspect.

Immediately, in front of the remaining fleet's crew.

On the unavoidable escape route.

A Star Sky Giant Beast over ten thousand meters appeared!
