Him and their stars

"Past Master" picked up his golden trident and knocked it heavily on the ground. Then, behind him, the invisible energy turned into something tangible, and at the same time, it condensed into four figures also wearing shirts and armors, but they were all him.

If they weren't always present, the snake heads here wouldn't even be able to tell the difference between his real body and his illusion.

"I can form an army by myself! But not everyone can get this big head of mine. Let's see what these young people are like now!" His voice was calm, his expression was quiet, like He looked like an ordinary calm old man, but in his eyes, there seemed to be a volcano about to erupt.

"Spell Breaker" bowed slightly, his voice full of determination: "I will fight side by side with you. I will let the people who should appear appear in front of you."

Behind him, "Black General", "Craftsman" and "Mother Tree" all made the same move. They will be the members of the Thirteen Sides who stay in the Snake Lair and fight with the "Past Master" until the end.

The projection of Miss "Magician" sighed faintly: "Old man, if you had been as domineering as you are today in the past few years, the relationship between the eldest sister and you will never be as bad as it is today."

However, at such a critical moment filled with a sense of ritual, the seat of the "now" lady was empty, with neither people nor "projections."

As for the "future public", it is as empty as ever. But everyone is used to it.

"Miss Magician, I have slightly different opinions from Ms. 'Now', but she is ultimately an idealist with excess power. After this, I may need to trouble you to rebuild the organization." Gong Gong said gently in the past: "After this battle, you will be the new 'past'."

"Can this kind of thing also be decreed?" Miss Magician, who was the youngest among everyone present, or at least looked the youngest, was immediately shocked. She looked at her colleagues present and found that no one expressed any objection.

"You should also look for a replacement." Spellbreaker smiled: "There are thugs like me."

"...Does the lady have no objections now?"

"She is an idealist with too much energy."

At this moment, somewhere in an unknown galaxy within the Spiral Cross Nebula, Ms. "Now", who did not attend the last meeting in the Snake Lair, has arrived above an Earth-like planet.

Viewed from a high altitude, the planet appears a palpitating scarlet color, as if it is incompletely fermented marsh gas. In fact, the atmosphere of this planet is indeed filled with highly toxic elements, covering the entire surface of the planet. It's hard to imagine that life could exist in such a place.

"Now" the lady put on her armor made of nano-armor, unfolded her steel wings, and descended from the sky like an angel, quickly penetrating the toxin-filled yellow atmosphere. The framed window inside her visor constantly reminded the environment at this time, and various extreme data kept flashing red, just like the Nephi Stock Exchange after the Secretary of State of the Union's "Peace for a Generation" speech appeared. It's like the military industry stocks here.

However, she didn't realize it and kept falling. She soon passed through the poisonous mist exuding an ominous color and landed over a swamp as vast as a vast ocean.

Without passing through the mecha's detector, she could already see countless shadows lurking in the swamp with her eyesight alone.

"...Surprisingly, it can really exist! The vitality is indeed amazingly tenacious. However, it is still weak."

She knew very well that with her current strength, she could detonate the swamp on the spot with a wave of her hand. Even if there are hundreds of millions of shadow creatures hidden in it, they can't hurt me at all.

"Why do future father-in-law and past father have such high expectations for these things?" The lady still can't understand this truth. However, she was not ready to think about it anymore.

Her current task is just cleaning and recycling. She needs to keep the recyclables safe until the organization finds a new base and testing site.

It's like the current mission of "Past Master" is to die bravely and let his head be with the snake's lair to appease the anger of the dragon kings.

"Now" soon found an island wrapped in poison in the middle of the vast swamp. However, when she just stepped on the ground of this island, she seemed to be stepping on a mass of nothingness.

Immediately afterwards, she had arrived in a strange and scattered space. Countless irregular clouds float in the gray space. Their continuously expanding and compressing shapes are like a pile of fragmented but growing weird biological tissues. Those biological tissues are linked together by indescribable tentacles, as if they have woven a huge mysterious network in this world dominated by chaotic gray mist.

And within that dense network, something caught her attention.

It was a head that swelled like a hill, or in other words, a bug holding a huge head. Yes, beneath the mountain of flesh densely covered with ravines, tiny nerves and blood vessels, like a huge organ, there is still a body made of carapace, jointed limbs and countless arms and legs.

However, rather than saying that it is a part of the body, it is better to say that it is a part of this giant head.

"It's so ugly... Since it is the so-called will of the swarm, shouldn't the appearance be diverse? Is this for the sense of ritual?" She shook her head and reached out to reach for the thing.

The invisible psychic laws seem to form an invisible, formless, yet ubiquitous tide. Then, the wonder of the brain as huge as the hill was like a sand sculpture built on the beach, which quickly fell apart under the wash of the tide.

Then, inside the brain that was peeled off, a chrysalis as tall as a person was revealed, as if made of clear and alluring amethyst.

"Ms. Now" pondered for a moment, adjusted the device on her wrist, opened the space bag and tried to suck in the crystal worm chrysalis-like thing, but it did not move at all.

One of the most powerful psychics in the galaxy looked around with some confusion. Fortunately, there was no one around now, otherwise she would definitely feel the feeling of death in society.

She brushed off the non-existent soil on her body and said to herself solemnly: "It turns out that this is the final mother body of the so-called Leviathan's Nest. She itself can store hundreds of millions of insect swarm fighting individuals, And it can upload and transfer consciousness and even the body through the insect swarm neural command network. It does contain that we cannot understand the laws of space for the time being, and naturally it cannot be easily moved by our space operations."

One thing to say is that Ms. "Now" is really not a bastard who talks to herself. She is actually recording and filming the entire process. These audio and video data have been transmitted to the remaining snake heads in real time.

Of course, this galaxy located deep in the Spiral Cross Nebula is surrounded by a dark and toxic atmosphere. In addition to containing a large number of toxins that are harmful to living things and can even corrode ordinary metals, the atmosphere also contains some special natural magnetic fields that can affect communications.

However, Ms. "Now"'s ship is parked in the sky above this planet. It is a light shuttle made by the World Snake using the black technology of the Enlightened One. It not only retains the powerful stealth ability, but also is completely integrated with the hull. The battery life is inconsistent, but it can also play a role as a signal relay, almost equivalent to a small source mass wave mobile terminal.

"Now" the lady used the camera that came with the nano mecha to take pictures of all four sides of the large crystal insect chrysalis, and then used a new function of the mecha. Then, countless nanomachines rushed over, covering the entire crystal and the alluring purple light. When they are closed, they form a metal cabinet with a sci-fi feel.

However, the rectangular shape is a bit like a mobile stretcher and somewhat similar to a coffin.

The lady snorted in disgust, used the tractor beam to pull the coffin up, and the driving mecha began to climb. Immediately afterwards, the gray and chaotic world surrounding her retreated silently. As a result, the dim world filled with toxins descended once again.

"Now Madam" looked at the swamp beneath her. She knew that, leaving aside the heraldry machine, even the most modern mechas equipped by the elite stormtroopers of the Empire and Alliance could not last long in such an environment. However, among the swamps and poisons, those insect-like figures live particularly comfortably.

"...What a pity." She sighed in her heart.

After he delivers the Leviathan Brood to the ship, he will detonate all the thermonuclear warheads buried on the surface. They ignite all the fire-producing elements in the poisonous air, turning the entire planet into a hell of fire. The burning process will last for more than a month.

If the Empire and the Alliance were lucky enough to get the star map from the snake's lair, they would have arrived here after the burning process. At that time, they will only see a desolate planet that has been completely purified... Having said that, perhaps 80% to 90% of the toxins in the planet's soil and atmosphere will be evaporated, and all the conditions for the transformation of a habitable planet will be fully met. . From this perspective, we have done good things in the universe.

"Ms. Now" pondered this while dragging the motorized coffin behind her to keep raising the height. However, when she got out of the atmosphere, she couldn't help but stop.

The large light shuttle spaceship she was hovering in the orbit of the planet had been completely shattered into pieces. In the same position was a monster as big as a battlecruiser. It has a triangular shape, and its whole body is wrapped by an insect carapace. Its appearance is not smooth, but is instead covered with uneven scales. Sharp horns stretched out from the giant insect's body, clearly showing the texture of the creature's cuticle, but with a hard alloy feel.

Ms. "Now" never doubted that that thing could easily tear through the armor and shield of a capital ship with just those horn-like cuticle spikes, let alone her own small ship. A light shuttle the size of a cruise ship.

An artificial Leviathan of the Swarm...the main "battleship" of the Swarm in space.

"Now" looked into the airspace further away and saw three more Leviathan battleship bugs of the same size. These four towering giants, between monsters and battleships, have blocked the orbit of this planet.

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by the intensive warning sounds of the mechas, a large group of insects that could soar in space emerged from the gap in the belly of the Leviathan insect ship.

It was a large group of monsters like caterpillars with wings, each with a body over three meters and a wingspan of more than five meters, with an ugly and ferocious head on top. Of course, the head has the compound eyes of an insect, but the mouth can have the characteristics of a plant. It can open like a king flower, and then extend a daunting spike.

It's not so much a head as it is a mouthpart specially designed for spraying and biting.

Tens of thousands of these monsters came out at once, surrounding Ms. "Now" three times inside and three times outside.

"Dragon worms? They have evolved to this level. Four years ago, dragon worms could never move in outer space orbits." "Now" the lady said in surprise: "But, I don't understand. Since they can move in outer space, Why do you need to have wings during the operation? Is this to expand the impact area? Or is it for a sense of ceremony? Charlie?"

"Of course it's for the sense of ceremony." A girl's voice passed through space without a sound transmission medium, passed through the lady's mecha, and rang in her ears.

Then, the master, who was wearing biological armor, with horn blades stretched out from his arms, octopod limbs spread out from his back, and snake-like whiskers, had already stepped on a flying crab that was only more than ten meters wide, and stood out from the crowd.

"Long time no see, long time no greetings, madam..."

"Now" the lady clasped her hands, sat on the metal coffin at the back, and said with a smile, "Charlie, I remember that we had no personal grudges."

"Yes, compared to those who your organization wanted to hunt me down, you at least helped me a lot. Especially after I met Tomitelli, you facilitated our three-party alliance after all. Although all this, It was all after I formed an alliance with Tomitelli." The Lord of the Insect Swarm showed a ferocious smile: "But, madam, Tomitelli's country collapsed, and her whereabouts are unknown. The World Serpent will accompany her. The city of the void will fall together. The man in the past who wanted to hunt me down will also fall. Now, madam, this moment is the same as the other moment."

"Ms. Now" slapped the table and laughed: "So, we, the Empire, the Alliance and the Community have all been set up by you. The one who has been watching the fight with a cold eye is actually you! Charlie, no, I My little master, you have finally matured and become a mature camp leader."

"I'm just a mature escapee."

"So, tell me, Lord, how did you find this place?"

Charlie was not prepared to hide anything, and said calmly: "I have my father's star map, and I have collected almost all the fragments of Leviathan's brood. As long as I get close to nearby galaxies, I can always feel the fluctuations of the brood." . Especially when you arrive on this planet, approach the earth where the mother nest has taken root, and try to transfer it away, such fluctuations will be particularly obvious."

"So, how did you get so close to this distance without me noticing?"

As one of the most powerful psykers in the galaxy, her ability to sense danger is beyond the imagination of ordinary psykers. Moreover, she has already set up automatic detectors in the gravity wells of the galaxy.

If a massive object, whether it was a man-made aircraft or a space Leviathan, entered the system, she would have received a warning and would have had enough time to escape.

However, these four huge Leviathan insect ships, as well as hundreds of thousands of insect swarm troops, actually silently touched the orbit of the planet, blocking all evacuation routes.

"I know you have maxed out the stealth and concealment capabilities of this big guy." The lady glanced at the Leviathan insect ship and the swarming dragon insects with a sneer expression, and said with a smile: "But, after all, they have already It shouldn’t be that easy to hide when you’ve developed like this, right?”
