Chapter 414: 414: Defend Our Homeland

Translator: 549690339

Watching the incredible scene unfolding below, the pirates were all dumbfounded.

“My god! What’s going on? Why did the War Fortress follow and crash into Sky City?”

“Could the commander of the War Fortress have gone mad?”

“No way it’s that coincidental, I bet it has something to do with our boss.”

At this moment, Lin Zhen also showed a hint of a smile, “Why do you guys care so much? It’s time for us to strike back now, right?”

“Yeah, without the protective shield, our ship’s firepower is enough to bring down that giant!”

The Black Pearl gradually slowed down, circling in the air, and prepared for another attack.

Above Sky City, Diana’s face was pale.

She had already figured it out by now. Undoubtedly, Ya Xuan had been manipulated again, her soul once more controlled by Lin Zhen’s mysterious method.

Taking advantage of the cover given by the Black Pearl, they closely followed behind, striking with a devastating blow while Sky City’s attention was completely focused on the Black Pearl.

Even if someone noticed the War Fortress, they would instinctively think it was chasing the Black Pearl, not realizing it was actually the real killer.

What a meticulous and crafty plan indeed.

“Damn Lin Zhen, he must’ve advanced in Spiritual Power. Diamond Peak, and yet he could still advance… playing such a sinister move….”

Diana’s teeth ground together, longing to devour Lin Zhen. But at this moment, she couldn’t confront Lin Zhen directly. Sky City couldn’t be damaged as it was her lifeline, and it absolutely couldn’t be harmed during the confrontation with the Black Pearl.

She immediately called through the console: “Mr. Anderson, it’s time for you to perform.”

“Got it, I can’t wait any longer.”

Anderson agreed and cut the connection, then appeared on Lin Zhen’s Black Pearl screen.

“Lin Zhen, stop your ship’s attack immediately, or I won’t mind shattering your protective shield. Disputes between Martial Artists should be resolved through Martial Artists.”

When the Black Pearl saw the screen, Ronnie couldn’t help exclaiming: “Oh my god! It’s a light-speed ship, a Permanent Crystal Battleship! How could that thing appear here, they’re in outer space, so close to us!”

“Master, be careful. They can launch a light speed ray attack, which we won’t be able to evade. That ray can definitely break our ship’s shield.”

“What are they waiting for then?”

“They wouldn’t dare to fire easily. Such light speed rays require a massive amount of energy to burn, and energy is life for a light-speed ship. Especially this kind of non-pure combat light-speed ship, once they fire, it won’t be easy for them to return.”

Lin Zhen looked at Anderson on the screen and smiled: “Fine, since you say Martial Artists should solve it, let’s hear your method.”

“Smart. In that case, let’s all leave our ships and settle this battle in person. As for the location… the square in the middle of Capital Base City.”

“Alright, then y’all leave your ships, and Diana’s people must also leave Sky City.”

“No problem, we’ll leave first to show our sincerity. But don’t try any tricks. Our ships have automatic programs, and if you try to attack us with your ship, it’ll retaliate.”

After saying this, Anderson led his subordinates out of the Perpetual Crystal Spaceship, passing through the atmosphere at an extremely fast speed, heading toward Capital Base City.

Diana also received the notification and let her subordinates leave Sky City, nearly four thousand people in total.

Sky City finally landed, just outside Capital Base City.

“We should also land and dock the Black Pearl.”

Lin Zhen didn’t want to play tricks on this issue, as he couldn’t afford any loss on the Black Pearl, which he also planned to use for capturing the Perpetual Crystal Spaceship.

Several ships landed one after another, and forces from all three sides gathered at the Capital Base City square.

After these people landed, their situation once again attracted the world’s attention.

Not only the world, but once the people of Earth had their identity chips, they could broadcast the situation here to the external world through the Dimensional Universe.

Therefore, not a small number of people from the outside world were paying attention to this battle on Earth. As long as you could find videos posted by people on Earth in the cosmic network, you could watch.

There were nearly four thousand people on Diana’s side. Apart from Diana herself being a Five-level Constant Star, the rest were mostly between Comet Stage and Planet Stage. Those with weaker strength could not possibly become her confidants.

Just these people alone would be difficult for Lin Zhen and his group to deal with, especially since there were only a thousand people on Lin Zhen’s Black Pearl.

However, compared to Diana’s people, the Anderson family was even more troublesome.

After leaving the Permanent Crystal Spaceship, Anderson and his men passed through the atmosphere like a swarm of meteors, hurtling towards the ground.

Boom, boom, boom~~~~!!!

Every one of them had an imposing air as they came down, and when they stood still, the people on Lin Zhen’s side gasped in shock.

Anderson, who stood in the center, wore a fiery red robe, with long red hair, and the mark of a three-star Asura on his chest, making him stand out among the crowd.

Even his eyes were red, making him look extremely terrifying.

Constant Star Level Nine! He had actually reached Constant Star Level Nine!

This level of strength was definitely among the top-tier people in the Tianhe Empire, a beginner-level Universe Country.

Apart from him, his team also had two Constant Star Level 3 and twelve Planet Ninth-level members.

On Lin Zhen’s side, among the pirates, Archangel Jason was the only Constant Star, then Stephen and Ronnie both were Planet Ninth-level, and Shac was Planet Eighth-level.

The overall strength of their group was far inferior to the opponents, let alone Diana was a Five-level Constant Star herself.

This battle would not be easy to fight.

Some of the pirates under Lin Zhen hesitated in their steps. Despite not betraying Lin Zhen, facing such a mighty enemy instinctively made them feel fearful.

It was hard to expect these pirates to instantly become heroes when faced with such powerful enemies who could bring death at any moment.

Diana showed a thick hatred on her face when she saw Lin Zhen come out and slowly walked to the front of the team.

“Lin Zhen, we finally meet again. Let’s settle our new and old grudges together this time,” she said.

Lin Zhen looked at Diana disdainfully: “We sure should settle this, but do you, a defeated general, have any qualifications to speak? It seems like you’re not qualified enough to be today’s protagonist.”

Diana was an extremely proud and arrogant person; she had never been insulted like this before. She immediately got angry: “Lin Zhen, don’t be arrogant. Today is the day Earth will be destroyed, and your arrogance won’t last long!”

With that, she pointed back at Anderson: “This gentleman is a Level 9 Constant Star. He alone is enough to sweep through Earth, not to mention that I’m here, as well as thousands of at least Comet Stage experts. O’ people on Lin Zhen’s side, the game is over for you!”

At this time, Anderson also took a step forward. His entire body was dressed in a red robe and looked like a moving ball of flame. With every step, it seemed as if a wave of scorching heat swept over, making the pirates on Lin Zhen’s side involuntarily back away a few steps.

But in reality, the temperature around them hadn’t changed at all. This was just a psychological illusion people had when facing a formidable opponent.

Lin Zhen took a step forward, unfazed by Anderson’s momentum: “Mr. Anderson, would you like to get involved in this muddy water here?”

“Lin Zhen, don’t try to shake my resolve with your childish words. It’s pointless,” Anderson retorted.

Anderson shook his finger: “Firstly, I want to congratulate you because you’ve become a Lord who controls a domain spanning a light-year. For a Satellite Stage person, this is quite an achievement.”

“However, I feel sad for you because your journey as a Lord will soon come to an end. You’ll face death as soon as you become a Lord. I guess you might be the shortest-lived Lord in history, right? Ha-ha-ha-ha!”

Anderson and Diana’s men all laughed heartily, while the faces of the pirates behind Lin Zhen became ugly.

Despite Anderson’s harsh words, no one doubted him, acknowledging the strength on the other side.

Seeing Lin Zhen’s side lose their morale, Diana became even more smug: “How does it feel, Lin Zhen? The moment you become a Lord, it’s already over. What did you pursue it for? You’ve gone to great lengths to gain control of this planet, but does anyone truly care about you? Now, in this situation, you’re still fighting alone. It’s so pathetic!”

Anderson sneered as he revealed a hint of mockery: “Defending Earth… how ridiculous!”

Lin Zhen took a deep breath; this battle was too difficult, as the overall strength of the enemy far exceeded his own side.

But he had no choice but to fight, ready to face the enemy.

Just as he was preparing to fight, a loud shout suddenly came from behind: “Since it’s a battle to defend Earth, as people of Earth, we have a responsibility to not let our Lord fight alone. Right, everyone?”

“Yes~~~!!!”

The voices were loud and clear, reaching the heavens!

Lin Zhen looked back and saw a large group of people coming out of an underground facility.

An Bihuai, Qing Xu, Chen Fenglie, Luo Yun, Dongfang Jun, as well as those who Lin Zhen knew, was familiar with, had seen, or hadn’t seen. As long as their realms had reached the Meteor Stage and above, everyone emerged from the underground facility.

These people moved quickly, walking at first and flying later. In just a few minutes, more than a hundred people had joined the crowd in the plaza.

“Lord, we know our strength isn’t strong enough, but let’s fight alongside you to defend Earth!” Chen Fenglie, who was walking at the front, said loudly, confirming Lin Zhen’s lordship.

“Yes, Earth is our common home; it doesn’t make sense for just you, Lord, to fight alone. We’re all in the same boat, so we should share both honor and disgrace,” An Bihuai also said loudly.

“That’s right! Diana said she was going to destroy us completely. If we hide, we’ll just be waiting for death. We won’t back down. Lord, let us join the battle!”

“Fight! Fight! Fight!”

The martial artists of Hua Xia were resounding, their spirits soaring!

Although their strength wasn’t powerful enough, they refused to be enslaved and would either win or die in this battle. There would be no second outcome!
