50: The majesty of a ruler who regards all things as straw dogs!
"W-What... what happened?!"
"Our engines... they've stopped!"
"The weapon systems are malfunctioning too!"
"We... we've become a steel coffin!"
In the darkness, the terrified screams of the crew members rose and fell.
Wang Fu was so scared he slumped into his chair, his face devoid of color.
Through the porthole, he saw something terrifying.
Twelve unknown mechas—hideous in design, pitch-black, and full of violent aesthetics—were circling like vultures, surrounding their powerless transport ship.
He had never seen the style of these mechas before.
They weren't standard-issue equipment for the Federation military, nor were they modified machines from any star pirate gang.
They... were more like demons from hell... Shelter No. 73, Central Command Room.
Sitting in the cockpit of human emperor no. 1, Su Jue watched the real-time footage sent back to the main screen with great interest.
"Good job, xiao pu."
He nodded with satisfaction, like a mob boss praising his subordinates.
"The EMP attack from the 'Punishers' was more effective than expected."
"The King's praise is the supreme glory of prometheus." The xiao pu's voice remained steady.
"Target successfully captured. Shall I execute the next command? Tow it back to base?"
"Of course," Su Jue licked his lips. "The takeout is at the door; there's no reason not to accept it."
"Tow that ship back for me."
"By the way, don't damage the cargo inside. I still have a use for it."
"By your command, my King."
Half an hour later.
Towed by the twelve 'Punisher' mechas, the massive transport ship was forcibly dragged into the atmosphere of Gliese 436b, finally landing in a giant underground dock outside the shelter.
Inside the dock, the lights were bright.
Hundreds of combat robots armed with high-energy weapons were already lined up and waiting.
Screech—
The transport ship's hatch was violently forced open.
Led by Wang Fu, more than a hundred crew members walked out, trembling under the muzzles of the combat robots.
??????
When they saw the massive, solemn underground base filled with a murderous aura, everyone was dumbfounded.
What... what kind of place is this?
Weren't they just here to dump trash?
How... how did it seem like they had stumbled into some incredible military fortress?!
Wang Fu's legs were shaking.
Looking at those uniform, murderous combat robots and the even larger war machines being assembled on the production lines in the distance, he felt his worldview being overturned.
On this planet that had been abandoned for hundreds of thousands of years, there actually... hid such a terrifying armed force?!
"W-Who are you people?!"
Wang Fu mustered his courage and roared with false bravado.
"I... I am from the Wang Family of the Lanxia Universe Federation!"
"If you dare touch me, the Wang Family will not let you off!"
However, not a single robot responded to him.
They just stared at him silently with their flickering red electronic eyes, as if looking at a dead man.
Just then.
Boom... Boom... Boom...
A series of footsteps, heavy as mountains, slowly approached from the shadows deep within the dock.
Everyone looked over in terror.
They saw the three-hundred-meter-tall human emperor no. 1, with its hellish divine majesty, walking out step by step with heavy strides.
Its massive body blocked out all the lights.
The shadow it cast enveloped Wang Fu and everyone else.
A fear originating from the depths of their souls instantly seized everyone's hearts!
"God... Oh my god..."
One crew member couldn't handle the pressure; his mind snapped on the spot, and he fainted with foam at his mouth.
Wang Fu was so scared he fell onto his backside, his crotch becoming wet and warm.
He stared at the giant mecha before him—larger and more terrifying than any mecha he had ever seen—his mind completely blank.
What... what kind of monster is this?!
Screech—
The chest cockpit of human emperor no. 1 slowly opened.
A small figure leaped down from inside, landing lightly on the ground.
Wang Fu and the others subconsciously squinted, wanting to see what kind of three-headed, six-armed monster the pilot of this terrifying mecha was.
However, when they saw clearly, everyone froze.
?
???
It was a... an Infant who looked only one or two years old, wearing a ridiculous animal onesie, looking as carved from pink jade, and being so cute it was against the rules?!
The entire dock fell into an eerie silence.
Shock!
Petrified!
Stupefied!
Holy mother of...!
Everyone's brains had crashed!
An Infant... piloting a three-hundred-meter-tall terrifying mecha?
Is this some kind of freaking comedy movie?!
Su Jue ignored the prisoners who were already scared witless.
His gaze went right past them, looking toward the open cargo hold of the transport ship.
The cargo hold was a mess.
Hundreds of ragged, emaciated 'goods' with numb eyes were locked in tiny cages like livestock.
There were men and women, old and young.
There were humans, and also some vassal races under the rule of the Lanxia Federation.
The only thing they had in common was... despair.
Su Jue's brow furrowed slightly.
He didn't like that look.
Just as he was about to have prometheus release these people.
His gaze suddenly froze.
In a cage in the furthest corner of the cargo hold.
He saw something.
It was a little girl curled up in the corner, trembling, about seven or eight years old.
Her clothes were so tattered they were unrecognizable.
But on her filthy, grime-covered collar.
A faded emblem, embroidered with the crudest thread, stung Su Jue's eyes.
It was a pattern formed by a simple ancient sword and an unfolded scroll crossing each other!
It was... the Su Family crest!
Boom—!!!
An indescribable, bone-chilling rage, like a volcano that had been dormant for billions of years, erupted within Su Jue's chest!
The Primordial Human Ancestral Blood within his body completely boiled at this moment!
A golden aura soared into the sky from his tiny body!
The temperature of the entire dock surged by nearly a dozen degrees!
"Wang... Family..."
Su Jue slowly turned his head. His eyes, which had still held a trace of Infant innocence, had now turned into abysses burning with golden flames!
He stared fixedly at Wang Fu, who had already peed himself.
Word by word, his voice was raspy—completely the voice of a young man.
"You... all... seek... death!"
That soaring golden aura was not the power of laws, nor was it the fluctuation of True Essence.
It was more like... a supreme will originating from the deepest part of his bloodline!
An imperial might that reigned over the world and treated all things as straw dogs!
