Wandering Meteor-Chapter 191 - 190: Earth Core Star Burst

Suddenly, an invisible space fluctuation swept through.

As the Space Shock Wave passed by, the dense swarm of billions of Ant-men in the planet’s atmosphere, along with their equipment, turned wave-like, instantly dying under the attack of the space waves and then raining down to the ground like a heavy pour, causing a series of violent explosions upon impact.

This was a space attack method used by the Earth Core Civilization’s Main Starship.

They found the swarming Ant-men quite displeasing to the eye, so they directly employed a wide-ranging space attack technique.

And to eliminate future threats, the Earth Core Civilization’s Main Starship also utilized the Earth Core Star Burst, a Planet-level extermination technique.

In terms of effects, it’s somewhat similar to neutrinos, both initiating internal explosions that lead to the disintegration of objects. However, the processes and principles of the two are different.

Neutrinos utilize the principle of strong penetrative power, striking the insides of objects. To completely destroy a planet usually requires a high energy level, which even the Earth Battle Star and Green Star Battle Star cannot achieve; only the current Constant Star Lu Chen can reach it.

Of course, that’s assuming the use of neutrinos as a weapon.

In reality, to demolish a massive object like a planet, with the technology of Earth Civilization and Light Synthesis Civilization, one could use Singularity Bombs.

The Earth Core Star Burst employed by the Earth Core Civilization is a unique weapon design specific to them. By continuously transmitting high-frequency pressure waves into the planet’s interior, they cause the high-temperature core material to condense and collide. Once the magma material in the Earth’s Core is compressed into a tiny volume with temperatures reaching hundreds of millions of degrees, an internal planetary explosion is created that completely shatters a planet.

Boom!

Under the principle of the Earth Core Star Burst weapon, Ant-man Star, with a mass similar to Earth’s, couldn’t bear the load and within less than a minute, an internal planetary explosion occurred.

First, terrifying energy erupted from Earth’s core, the planet experienced severe earthquakes, and numerous chasms appeared on the surface.

Then, massive amounts of heat and magma burst from seams around the globe, turning the dim Ant-man Star into a brightly glowing star.

Next, the real explosive energy struck the fractured planetary plates, completely shattering the massive plates into various sized rocks and dust.

Finally, in the incredibly grand and spectacular explosion, amidst the blinding firelight, the whole Ant-man Star was engulfed by flames, shooting skyward, causing a planetary explosion. The horrible explosive energy formed shockwaves, sweeping debris and dust in all directions!

This entire process took merely a minute, and by the time Constant Star Lu Chen came late to the scene, all he could taste was the detritus spewed by the explosion of Ant-man Star, while Ant-man Star itself had completely vanished from its original location, as if it never existed.

Seeing this, Lu Chen could not help but feel a bit angry.

Initially, Lu Chen had planned to seize Ant-man Star to assess the scientific and technological value of the Ant-man Civilization or any technological specialties it might have.

Never did he imagine that Ant-man Star would be directly destroyed by the Earth Core Civilization, leaving not even a trace behind. Although Lu Chen had already observed the Earth Core Civilization’s movements and rushed at full speed, he was, after all, a step too late.

"Calmly, Green Star said: "This alien civilization arrived at the Ring Nebula later than we did but moved faster than us, it seems they are at least somewhat ahead of us in space technology. Before they destroyed the Ant-man Civilization, it seems like they captured an Ant-man? Perhaps that was their goal, it’s just a pity we don’t know who it was?"

"If I’m not mistaken, the one captured should be the Ant Queen of the Ant-man Civilization, which is evident from the riots that just occurred across the entire Ant-man Civilization," Lu Chen analyzed based on some clues.

Green Star asked, "What should we do next?"

"The Ant Queen, as the leader of the Ant-man Civilization, definitely has considerable value. The fact that the alien civilization captured only the Ant Queen also proves this point. Let’s first try to communicate with them; we’ll base our next actions on the situation!" Lu Chen said.

Although Lu Chen said this, to be on the safe side, he still called the Metal Planet Wandering back.

Since the Wandering was somewhat far from the Wandering Star System, in case of a sudden battle, there were concerns that Wandering might not be able to arrive promptly, hence it’s necessary to take precautions early on.

Earth Civilization and the Light Synthesis Civilization were starting to analyze the intelligence on the attack technology previously revealed by the Earth Core Civilization. Naturally, the best outcome would be to deduce something from their analysis.

"Which civilization are you from?"

Just when the Wandering Alliance had begun deliberating on a strategy, Constant Star Lu Chen received a consciousness wave from the other party.

Lu Chen straightforwardly responded: "We are the Wandering Alliance. Which civilization are you?"

"We are the Earth Core Civilization. What is your purpose for entering the Ring Nebula and approaching the Ant-man Civilization?" the Earth Core Civilization inquired.

Hearing the other party claim to be the Earth Core Civilization, a thought struck Constant Star Lu Chen, and suddenly he thought of the Pirate Civilization.

They had learned during a previous investigation into the history of the Pirate Civilization that its homeland had been destroyed, forcing its flight from the Small Magellanic Cloud, and the main culprit behind all this was the Earth Core Civilization.

A historically ancient and terrifying Level 3 civilization.

"This is an internal matter of ours, we have no need to report to you. Rather, your capture of the Ant Queen from the Ant-man Civilization, what is your purpose?" Lu Chen counter-asked.

Earth Core Civilization: "That too is our own affair, with no need to report to you."

"Since you have no intention of sincere communication, then please hand over the Ant Queen to us!" Lu Chen said. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Earth Core Civilization: "Why?"

Lu Chen stated: "We were originally engaged in battle with the Ant-man Civilization, and had attracted ninety percent of the Ant-man Civilization’s military forces, and victory was within our grasp. But you suddenly launched a surprise attack from another front, stealing the fruits of our victory. If you do not hand them over, we will have to personally take action to retrieve them."

The Earth Core Civilization was silent for a moment, then replied: "Are you seeking war?"

"Do you believe that a powerful community of life would allow other civilizations to snatch away the fruits of victory right before their eyes?" Lu Chen said.

The Earth Core Civilization was silent once more, as they needed to communicate with the Earth Core Civilization’s headquarters. Afterward, they replied: "In fact, it is not necessary for us to go to war."

"You should also know the entropy increase law of the Cosmic Great Silence. Every civilization under such circumstances must and can only find ways to reverse the entropy increase of themselves and their surroundings. Such reversal actions, even if temporarily conflict-free, will still have a ripple effect on the entropy system of the universe. Therefore, the actions of every civilization actually affect the universe and will ultimately affect distant and seemingly unrelated civilizations."

Earth Core Civilization said: "Any civilization with such long-term vision and awareness of such distant destiny changes will certainly know that all civilizations in the universe are actually in opposition. But due to the intelligence possessed by civilizations, alliances to alter such a fate will certainly form. Thus, any civilization that does not form alliances will ultimately be enemies. We believe that with your civilization level, you would surely see such a distant destiny. The proposal we offer is this: Since we are both interested in the Ant Queen and there is no conflict between us, why not form an alliance to study the value of the Ant Queen together and jointly counter other civilizations in the universe."

"You want to form an alliance with us?"

Lu Chen was, of course, aware of the subtleties of the Entropy Reduction Law, as after all, he was the first within the Wandering Alliance to have proposed it.

Earth Core Civilization: "No, we are inviting you to join our alliance, as we have already established an Earth Core Alliance."

Lu Chen said: "But we have also established a Wandering Alliance."

Earth Core Civilization: "However, your alliance is not large in scale; it would be better to merge with us. We have been a Level 3 civilization for a long time and can help you advance further."

Lu Chen said: "If that’s the case, then all right, how do we join?"

Earth Core Civilization: "Come with us to the base of our Earth Core Alliance, where we can discuss the details of joining."

Lu Chen said: "Alright, lead the way!"

However, as the three Planet Battleships of the Earth Core Civilization just began to prepare to lead the way ahead,

a Planet Giant Sword traveling at superluminal speed suddenly came from behind, heading straight for the Main Starship among the three Planet Battleships.
