Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 1397 - 1362: Signs of Metamorphosis

To speak frankly, conventional weapons pose almost no threat to the "Lord of the Sky" and the divine breed "Sagali"; they are merely for noise. However, the Element Annihilation Bomb is not to be underestimated; it's a formidable weapon specifically aimed at the "Sagali" civilization from Mr. Randon's previous life memories. Even for the divine breed, if caught off guard, suffering a hit would be devastating, if not deadly.

Though nuclear weapons are quite powerful, within the effective strike radius, they are still not as domineering as the Element Annihilation Bomb. Moreover, the residual radiation poses significant future risks, making it somewhat of a Pyrrhic victory. Currently, Blue Star Sovereignty is gradually phasing them out, dismantling them into fission power stations or fuel for small long-life batteries.

Before the Element Annihilation Bomb, both physical entities and Elemental Series energies are equal among all living beings.

Oddly enough, faced with a slew of conventional short-range combat missiles, "Lord of the Sky" and the divine breed "Sagali" Klato unexpectedly felt a bit of anticipation, as if not getting a taste of an Element Annihilation Bomb left them with unresolved thoughts.

After being continuously attacked by hundreds of tactical jets and multiple rounds of missile groups, both human and dragon disappeared from the view of "Lord of the Sky." They were clearly maneuvering nearby, yet their exact location remained elusive.

The female juvenile Metallic Dragon disguised as a tactical jet, carrying Chen Fei, navigated effortlessly amidst other tactical jet groups. Neither "Lord of the Sky" Lin Mo, nor the divine breed "Sagali" Klato possessed the multi-thread parallel tracking capabilities of Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam." Unless hundreds of tactical jets forming large group formations were completely wiped out at once, it would be challenging to accurately capture the appearances of the female juvenile Metallic Dragon Yilan and Chen Fei.

What's more, aided by the spiritual power shared by the "Life Tree," Chen Fei continually interfered with the divine breed parasitizing "Lord of the Sky." The "Boundary Pearl" Life Space was within the coverage of the "Life Tree's" barrier, inherently possessing rule-based authority. Though the divine breed "Sagali" could engage in contention, it was not a matter of carefree plundering. One moment of carelessness could result in losing control again.

Due to the ongoing spiritual interference and rule contention, a portion of the divine breed "Sagali's" energy was preoccupied, also needing to divert away to control "Lord of the Sky." As a result, the full combat capability could only be maximized to less than fifty percent, granting Chen Fei and Yilan opportunities for relentless harassment, driving them to fury.

Through radio communication, Chen Fei reestablished contact with Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam." Whether Adam operated within his mind made little difference, effectively commanding and dispatching tactical jet groups, organizing round after round of attacks.

Each tactical jet possessed combat power comparable to a Sky Knight. Aside from being unable to unleash exclusive aerial combat techniques, their combat effectiveness, even if halved, was still equivalent to an organized Air Cavalry Corps. Even for "Lord of the Sky" and the divine breed "Sagali," it was quite a headache. Despite releasing several powerful moves consecutively, the results were limited to just a few tactical jets being smashed to pieces. Soon after, they encountered a combined effort of the jet group launching a spell-level concentrated attack comparable to the Forbidden Curse Level.

Moreover, two fully equipped airship battle groups were about to arrive at the scene, elevating the intensity of the attack to an even greater magnitude.

For the time being, "Lord of the Sky" and the divine breed "Sagali" couldn't easily deal with this human and dragon duo. Yet, the "Sagali" civilization's invasion of the "Boundary Pearl" Life Space never ceased. Not only were large numbers of biological space motherships swarming in, but countless active materials from biological celestial body planets were also forcibly infused into the various "Stargates," especially from the Halo, collectively guarded by the giant dragon clan. They were utterly indifferent to how much the "Life Tree" consumed, recklessly continuing to pour in despite being tofu waste. They didn't adhere to any tactical strategy, purely injuring themselves. Either the "Life Tree" devoured them entirely or the "Boundary Pearl" Life Space burst under the pressure.

For the "Sagali" civilization, as long as victory is achieved, no matter how much the "Life Tree" consumed, it would all be won back eventually.

In a certain aspect, the "Sagali" civilization bore a gambler's hallmark, with the winner taking all, and the loser shouldering the losses. Indeed, the struggle between civilizations is that cruel and merciless.

Even Chen Fei was unaware of how much biological resource the "Life Tree" could bear and whether it would suffer indigestion, remaining entirely clueless.

Inside the "Life Tree," a new change was quietly brewing. The metamorphosis of life originally required a prolonged period of accumulation to occur gradually. However, the divine breed Macne, who handed the seed of the "Life Tree" to Chen Fei, did not anticipate the "Sagali" civilization to feed it recklessly, drastically accelerating this process. Though Chen Fei might have sensed something, he was too preoccupied to focus, repeatedly striking together with Yilan amidst the tactical jet group formations, taking a brutal shot at "Lord of the Sky."

Though the opponent was at least connected to his own family, Uncle Lin had been parasitized and controlled by the divine breed "Sagali." Given the adversarial stance between them, Chen Fei had no choice but to mercilessly aim for his downfall. Any momentary compassion would not yield any favorable outcomes, only rendering the situation more irreversible. Regardless of the motive behind "Lord of the Sky's" betrayal, for the Cangqiong Star Civilization and Blue Star Civilization, it undoubtedly represented a significant blow.

The sky over the "Boundary Pearl" Life Space plunged into darkness once more.

The influx of biological resources, whether from biological celestial body planets or from biological space motherships and various monsters, appeared to trigger an overload indigestion reaction. The "Life Tree's" previously indiscriminate devouring began to exhibit diminishing efficiency, with remnants of biological tissues crashing down into the massive tree crown instead of disappearing into thin air, colliding and descending, eventually layering the floor beneath the crown.

Some biological combat weapons that managed not to get "digested" survived. After twitching for a while, they wobbly rose, ready to claw at those around them, only to be promptly taken down by the arriving combat mech.

Surrounding the "Life Tree," more than a dozen airship battle groups and the combat mech legions numbering in the tens of millions formed an important second line of defense.

Beneath the "Life Tree's" crown, the frequency of skirmishes between the biological combat weapons of the "Sagali" civilization and combat mech legions sharply increased.

Sitting inside the tactical jet cockpit evolved by Yilan, Chen Fei subconsciously yawned. This hint of fatigue emerged somewhat inexplicably. He was still a vibrant lad who could endure three days and nights without sleep effortlessly, not to mention having never experienced night battles of burning the midnight oil.
