56: Chapter 56 A Civilization Spanning Two Galaxyes

At Yu Lan's command, the two starships "Shenwei" and "divine ascension" sailed at full speed toward the second planet of Southern Neighbor Two.

Simultaneously, the high-energy particle beams and pulse phase cannons on the starships fired in rotation, blasting the numerous sarcomas blocking their path into minced meat.

Following Wei Wei's suggestion, two carrier-based aircraft, protected by the starships, fired directional infrasonic waves at these meat fragments. Since these sarcomas already contained a large amount of gas, the parasites within the white mucus were instantly killed by the effect of the infrasonic waves.

Before the starship technology of the Blue Star, organic life forms were nothing more than targets for slaughter.

This made Tu Kulei exceptionally furious: "They clearly know they are vulnerable before us, so why do they still refuse the radiance of the divine light! I will definitely slaughter them all!"

Wei Wei patiently explained from the side: "Those charging forward might not be doing so of their own volition; they cannot resist the will of the hive."

Soon, the Blue Star warships passed through the atmosphere of the second planet, looking down upon the gray, hazy land.

Unexpectedly, there was a second line of defense in the sky; countless four-winged insects over two meters long swarmed the starships, spraying green corrosive liquid onto them.

Chu Xingyang frowned. Are these guys inseparable from mucus? Relying on this mucus to burn through the hull would take forever.

Under the detection of all the equipment on the two starships, the location of the hive was finally found.

A beam of gamma-ray laser descended from the sky, instantly flattening a large mountain.

Yu Lan shouted: "All combat personnel, move out! The hive is in the tunnels below!"

Chu Xingyang piloted the Fireball, and together with other humanoid mechs and carrier-based aircraft, they dove down.

Tu Kulei also squeezed into the shuttle carrying the ground troops.

Field Captain Le Gang hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "Missionary Officer, you are not combat personnel, and you don't even have exoskeleton armor. We cannot protect you with peace of mind on the battlefield!"

"Insolent!" Tu Kulei patted the xingyang divine canon tucked inside his chest lining and held his head high: "The Great Deity Xingyang protects me; I shall be as solid as a rock!"

A battle soon erupted on the planet's surface.

Countless two-meter-tall creatures with solid carapaces protected the final line of defense.

With a single charge, they were able to knock over a three-meter-tall humanoid mech.

Seeing this, Le Gang took off his exoskeleton armor and charged toward the beetles while laughing wildly: "Hahaha, let's see if the Armored People created by the gods are harder, or if your carapaces are!"

Two hours later, the Blue Star soldiers surrounded the hive in a tunnel.

The six-meter-tall giant mountain-shaped humanoid mech piloted by Baliwei did not lose any momentum when facing the ten-meter-tall hive.

He slowly raised his weapon and shouted: "Tell your bugs to stop resisting!"

Soon, the earth-shaking sounds of battle on the ground ceased abruptly, and the whole world fell into silence.

At this moment, the sound of many people walking through the tunnel could be heard.

Tu Kulei, with only half a face left and missing an arm, walked slowly in the lead, leaning on a cane with his usual elegant demeanor.

He took the mimetic translator from Xiliu and said calmly: "With Xingyang God above, why do you little bugs refuse to bathe in the radiance of the divine light?"

The hive trembled slightly, and the translator quickly emitted a voice: "I am worried that I will lose my dominance over the entire population."

Tu Kulei nodded: "What a pity; now you will also lose your life."

After saying this, he waved his hand, and under the leadership of Le Gang, the mechs and marines fired their weapons in unison.

The hive turned to ash amidst wails.

On the ground, Xiliu was installing the mimetic translator among the dejected insect swarm; this was developed by the Absolute Core to communicate with all intelligent life forms.

Tu Kulei walked out of the tunnel, gripped his cane, straightened his back, and shouted loudly: "Spread the divine light and slay the heretics. Make your decision quickly!"

All the bugs prostrated themselves on the ground.

A voice came from the translator simultaneously: "Xingyang God is eternal! We will follow to the death!"

Tu Kulei pressed the divine canon at his chest, which was about to become thicker again, his eyes resolute.

He handed the translator over to the two captains and then found Chu Xingyang in the crowd: "I appreciate your bravery in battle. If you can answer a simple question correctly, I will recommend you for the Papal Court."

Many soldiers immediately gathered around; once one entered the Papal Court, they would become an existence that any national leader or tribal chief would have to bow to upon seeing.

Anyone who heard this would feel their heart racing.

Tu Kulei looked at Chu Xingyang, who was the only one unmoved, and his appreciation deepened. He then proposed his question: "Our Xingyang Civilization is now a Civilization of Gods spanning two star systems with a territory of 100,000 light-years."

"Of course, there is still so much work to do in this new star system. So, may I ask, what is the first thing to do?"

Chu Xingyang was stunned for a moment and tentatively replied: "Build a military base?"

A chorus of regret arose from the crowd.

Tu Kulei shook his head in disappointment, turned around, and limped away: "That is the second thing. Young man, you are not devout enough; please examine your heart more. I will not punish you today."

Baliwei was so anxious he was scratching his ears and cheeks, muttering incessantly: "Little brother, this was a freebie question. The first thing is always to build a Xingyang Temple or a sanctuary. What a great opportunity to enter the Papal Court that you missed! Do you not read the xingyang divine canon? I don't see anything wrong with your intelligence; how did you live this long?"

Chu Xingyang shook his head and said something that left everyone dumbfounded: "I really don't know, and I really don't want to enter the Papal Court."

After saying this, he prepared to go find Wei Wei and the two captains, wanting to investigate how these technologically backward bugs knew the starships were coming in advance.
