146: Chapter 146 The Ambush and Dimensional Strike at the Wailing Wall
"A Burial Ground?"
Su Chen's consciousness sat upon the god throne on the mothership's bridge. Through a massive holographic light screen, he scrutinized the twenty dark figures of Demon Demigods hovering above the canyon.
His spirit did not ripple with even a hint of disturbance.
In fact, within those deep eyes, a flicker of mockery bordering on pity emerged.
"You think twenty makeshift demigods are enough to take down my main force?"
His voice rang out directly within the mental network of all Zerg Swarm units via the Soul link—calm and filled with absolute confidence, instantly smoothing over the slight commotion caused by the spatial blockade.
"No, we never intended to destroy you physically."
The leading goat-headed Demon Demigod, his face burning with purple-black Hellfire, split his mouth into a hideously wide grin.
He held a sharp claw high. In the center of his palm, a runestone emitting an eerie silver glow hummed restlessly, as if imprisoning a beast desperate to break free.
"Swarm Overlord, your strength lies in your endless numbers and your terrifying reproductive capabilities. Killing any amount is but a drop in the bucket to you."
"Therefore, we have prepared a true gift for you."
"An eternal cage!"
What he emitted was no longer a voice, but a mental roar mixed with Divine Might, echoing madly within the solidified space.
"Do it!"
"Activate the [Dimensional Banishment Array]!"
Along with that command, the goat-headed demon's claw suddenly clenched tight.
Crack!
The silver runestone shattered instantly.
There was no blinding light, no earth-shattering roar.
Only a circle of invisible, silver ripples erupted outward, centering on the fragments of the runestone!
BOOM!!!
At that same instant, the bodies of the twenty Demon Demigods suspended high in the air shuddered in unison.
The purple-black Hellfire on their bodies surged dozens of times over, as if doused in oil! Every demigod began to burn their Divine Power without reservation, pouring that star-destroying energy entirely into the invisible array that had long been prepared beneath their feet.
The space within the Wall of Sighs canyon changed.
It was no longer viscous; it was no longer solidified.
It began to collapse.
This collapse was not a physical explosion or destruction.
It was more like an obsidian mirror struck by a massive force, instantly covered in web-like pitch-black cracks radiating from the center of the canyon.
Behind those cracks was not the Void Realm, nor darkness, but an indescribable, bizarre Chaos.
Countless distorted space-time turbulences surged madly from those fissures.
They were the gangrene of the Universe, the scars of dimensions.
They were like tentacles hungry for billions of years, madly pulling, biting, and devouring all matter trapped within the array.
A Zergling on the outermost edge didn't even have time to hiss before its body was seized by several different turbulences in mid-air. It was instantly stretched and twisted into an indescribable mass of flesh and blood, finally being completely decomposed into basic particles and disappearing into the depths of the cracks.
A Spore Ship responsible for scouting was caught in a vortex of turbulence. Its massive body was compressed into a singularity of incredible density within a tenth of a second, then vanished with a soft "pop."
Even Nora's massive body, like a floating continent, began to emit an uncontrollable metal groan under the weight of this power derived from the Law of space itself. A series of blinding energy sparks erupted from her indestructible biological armor, and the entire hull was slowly lifted off the ground by an invisible force, drifting toward the ever-widening spatial crack overhead.
This was a true dimensional strike!
This was the killing move specifically designed by the Abyss Lordss, who had spent immense effort to counter the Zerg Swarm's nearly unsolvable numerical advantage!
"Hahahaha!"
"Do you feel it? Swarm Overlord!"
"We are going to banish you, along with your pile of disgusting insects, into the depths of the spatial turbulence!"
"Wander eternally in the dimensional gap where there is no time, no space, no direction, and where even the concept of 'existence' is blurred!"
The demons' wild laughter, mixed with the roar of Divine Power, vented their pleasure within the crumbling space.
In their eyes, this was already the end.
No matter how powerful Su Chen's Zerg Swarm was, once dragged into the dimensional gap, it was equivalent to being completely erased from this Universe.
This was ten thousand times more sophisticated and malicious than simple killing!
However, faced with this desperate situation that would make any god pale...
"Somewhat interesting."
Su Chen remained seated steadily upon the god throne, his slender fingers even tapping rhythmically against the cold armrest.
"You actually understand how to use the Law of space to play at tactics."
His will calmly scanned the bizarre doomsday scene outside, his tone carrying a hint of condescending scrutiny, as if evaluating a stone spear just learned by a primitive tribe.
"Unfortunately, you know nothing of 'technology'."
His fingers stopped tapping.
A cold command bypassed all the chaotic space and was delivered directly.
"leviathan."
"Teach them a lesson."
The next second, Su Chen's voice exploded throughout the mental network with unquestionable majesty.
"Main cannon charging—[Dimensional Tear Cannon]!"
Hum—!!!
A low hum that could not be heard with ears but was enough to make the Soul tremble echoed through the world.
Under the horrified gaze of all the Demon Demigods, at the highest point of the Wall of Sighs' shattered sky, the empty dark area they had been ignoring began to twist and fold violently.
It was as if an invisible giant hand had grabbed that piece of "sky" like a curtain and yanked it open!
The fully-matured [void leviathan mothership], which had been hovering above the Zerg Swarm in a completely cloaked state, finally revealed its savage and terrifying fangs.
There was no gradual transition.
It appeared out of thin air, just like that.
A giant interstellar warship over twenty kilometers in length deactivated its optical and spatial camouflage.
The massive hull that blotted out the sun instantly replaced the sky, the mist, and everything else. Its hull, woven from dark purple biological carapace and unknown metals, was filled with a cold pressure that transcended common biological knowledge.
Merely its appearance, and the massive shadow of mass it brought, caused the smiles of all the laughing demons below to freeze instantly.
It was an uncontrollable tremor originating from biological instinct.
Like ants witnessing the descent of a deity.
And what made their Souls fly away even more was the change at the ship's bow.
The very front of the massive warship slowly split open like petals, revealing a bottomless giant cannon port with a diameter of over a thousand meters.
At the core of the cannon port, there was no light from converging energy, nor any phenomenon of thunder and lightning.
There was only a dot.
A pure black dot that devoured all light.
Next, that black dot began to expand rapidly, turning into a heart-palpitating black sphere of light.
That was not energy.
That was a mixture of "antimatter" and "void psionic energy" compressed to the extreme.
It was the ultimate power capable of flattening reality at a conceptual level.
Su Chen's cold will delivered the final judgment.
"Fire."
There was no sound.
The world fell into an absolute dead silence.
A pure black beam instantly pierced through heaven and earth.
It ignored distance, ignored the collapsing space, and even ignored the passage of time.
The moment it appeared, it had already struck its target—the core node of the [Dimensional Banishment Array] maintained by the twenty Demon Demigods.
Crack!
A sound of shattering, so crisp it was eerie, rang out in the depths of every existing Soul.
The spatial turbulence that was originally devouring the Zerg Swarm and tearing reality apart was like a wrinkled piece of paper smoothed over by a red-hot giant iron in the face of that pure black beam.
All the distortion, all the Chaos, all the cracks...
Were forcibly "ironed out" by a void power that was more domineering, more Advanced, and more unreasonable.
Within a single second, the space of the entire Wall of Sighs recovered from the brink of shattering to a state as smooth as a mirror.
The so-called Dimensional Banishment Array, the killing move the Abyss Lordss were so proud of, was as fragile as a thin sheet of paper instantly pierced through before this planet-killer class main cannon.
"This... what kind of power is this?!"
The dead silence was broken by a shrill scream.
The goat-headed Demon Demigod's pupils, burning with Hellfire, shrank to the size of pinpricks due to extreme terror. He stared fixedly at the leviathan suspended in the sky like a creation Divine Beast.
"This is impossible! This is absolutely impossible! This is True God-level destructive power!"
"This is a great power that only the Great abyssal will can master!"
The other Demon Demigods also snapped out of their daze, letting out one scream after another, filled with terror and disbelief.
Their pride, their trump cards, their hope—all were blasted to pieces by this single shot.
Su Chen's cold voice cut through their wailing, clearly entering the mind of every Demon Demigod.
"The times have changed, natives."
