Wandering Meteor

The Wandering Alliance’s breakthrough plan was going smoothly.

Even smoother than Lu Chen of the Constant Star had imagined.

Moreover, throughout the entire process, Huang Xing of the Constant Star did not make a move, which was suspiciously smooth.

Due to this, Lu Chen of the Constant Star had to be cautious. Although the Star Realm Tunnel had already been reconnoitered, the sudden situation before his eyes only allowed Lu Chen to have the scientific team inside the Wandering Base check once more, and this time with extra carefulness.

However, just as the scientific team was meticulously rechecking the situation inside the Star Realm Tunnel.

An unexpected incident occurred in the Wandering Star System. The neutron star, which was originally orbiting steadily at half the speed of light, suddenly veered off its path and flew outwards rapidly.

And the direction it was flying towards was precisely where Huang Xing of the Constant Star was located.

Seeing this scene, Lu Chen of the Constant Star finally understood Huang Xing’s plan. It turned out that the reason why Huang Xing had not made a move until now was his intention to gather comprehensive intelligence on the Wandering Alliance.

As for the four Planet Flying Devices of the Earth Core Civilization, in Huang Xing’s view, they were insignificant. They controlled such a vast Star Zone that they could have as many Planet Battle Stars as they wanted, and the Earth Core Soldiers within the Planet Flying Devices knew from the moment they became soldiers that they could be sacrificed at any time.

Today, they merely fulfilled their duty.

The value ultimately exchanged was worth it. Huang Xing completely grasped the Wandering Alliance’s situation and then seized the neutron star outside the Wandering Star System through a sudden move, utilizing the Gravity Increment when the opponent entered within three astronomical units.

Because the three neutron stars outside the Wandering Star System were not Celestial Civilizations, they could not control their own gravity. The reason they could orbit around the Wandering Star System stably was entirely due to the maintenance by the Gravity Field of the central star.

This means that lifeless neutron stars can be controlled by anyone, it just depends on whose gravity is stronger.

And with Huang Xing’s Constant Star Mass of 20,310, which was far greater than Lu Chen’s 16,200, Huang Xing’s gravity was certainly stronger than Lu Chen’s. Hence, it would be a very simple matter for Huang Xing to disrupt the gravitational stability of the Wandering Star System and snatch the neutron stars from under Lu Chen.

If Huang Xing could take all three neutron stars, it would not only increase his side’s combat power but also weaken the defensive power of the Wandering Star System.

This was Huang Xing’s "kill two birds with one stone" strategy.

From the perspective of the universe, the scene was akin to a star system being robbed of its satellites by another star with a larger mass.

This type of event is quite common in the universe. If it were observed by a civilization unaware of the existence of Celestial Civilizations or by living civilizations of a lower Civilization Level, they might consider this phenomenon a very ordinary struggle for star system dominance.

However, the subsequent plot development was completely different from ordinary scenarios.

As the Wandering Star System and Huang Xing of the Constant Star continued to draw nearer, the gravitational interaction between the two became increasingly strong.

Moreover, since Huang Xing’s Constant Star Mass was as high as 20,310, exceeding the Wandering Star System’s total mass, any celestial bodies entering within a certain range, started to be affected by Huang Xing’s gravity.

Initially, it was only the outermost neutron star that was seized.

But as they drew closer, the second neutron star also began to be affected and started heading towards Huang Xing...

Even Huang Xing’s gravitational force reached inside the Wandering Star System, affecting the orbital speed and path of the Wandering, Green Star, and Earth.

Although the Wandering and Green Star were Celestial Civilizations capable of controlling their own gravity to avoid such effects.

Yet Earth was not a Celestial Civilization and could not control Planet Gravity.

When Earth Civilization on Earth detected the orbital deviation, they could only activate the Gravity Field protection, preventing the influence of Huang Xing’s gravity.

However, due to the limited Energy Level of the devices, Earth Civilization could only enlarge the Gravity Field to cover Earth, unable to protect the outermost neutron star.

Therefore, the seizure of the neutron star was an irreversible process.

Lu Chen of the Constant Star was naturally very aware of this and also realized that with his mass, he could not use gravity to compete with Huang Xing.

Although he possessed the Unified Force Stone, it could only strengthen a single point and was not suitable for flexible confrontations between Celestial Civilizations.

If indeed Huang Xing managed to snatch all three neutron stars, the situation would surely be reversed. Rather than waiting for such a passive situation, better to act bravely and resolutely cut the losses!

After all, in the universe, although neutron stars are not abundant, they are not that scarce either, and new ones could still be found if sought after.

Thus, the decisive Lu Chen immediately used gravity control on the last and innermost neutron star. Lu Chen first accelerated the third neutron star, and then, when the speed reached its peak value, he suddenly weakened the gravitational hold, allowing the neutron star to break free from the gravity and fly forward at high speed.

Moreover, in order to achieve his strategic goals.

Lu Chen had the Light Synthesis Civilization on Green Star launch a space acceleration engine.

The Space Engine hit the neutron star at thrice the speed of light, providing the neutron star with continuous acceleration.

Additionally, to prevent the engine from being destroyed by the neutron star’s gravity field, the Light Synthesis Civilization specially installed a Gravity Field Device allowing it to counteract the gravity of the neutron star, and with this Space Engine’s power, it should be able to accelerate the neutron star close to the speed of light on top of its own velocity.

Indeed, the result was as expected, and after a while, the neutron star reached the speed of light.

Such a speed even surpassed the previous two neutron stars and easily broke free from the gravitational hold of Huang Xing, flying straight into the Star Zone.

"Darn it!"

When Huang Xing saw this scene, he seemed to suddenly grasp something and was extremely enraged in an instant!

Huang Xing started to ignore the two neutron stars flying towards him and focused all his effort on controlling the Gravity Increment to capture the third neutron star...

"Heh heh, since you want the neutron stars so much, I might as well give them all to you. Just don’t bite off more than you can chew!"

Originally, Lu Chen discovered that his gravity could not compete with Huang Xing’s, realizing that the seizure of the neutron stars was inevitable, so he decisively flung the final neutron star into the Star Zone.

Lu Chen imagined that with the distribution of matter within the Star Zone, the neutron star could easily consume those materials. Once the neutron star’s mass reaches its limit, it would become a Black Hole. Just think of the destructive power of a black hole that devours everything in a densely packed Star Zone!

It could even potentially consume and deplete a large part of the Star Zone!

Faced with such a situation, the Earth Core Alliance, which prides itself as the Guardian of the Star Realm Ball, certainly would not stand idly by.

Therefore, after Lu Chen released the third neutron star, he had very far-sightedly slowed down the speed of the Wandering Star System and then flew rapidly diagonally upwards. Since the Star Realm Tunnel was a light-year wide, even flying upwards they could take the opportunity to enter the Star Realm Tunnel from another position in the chaos.

"Damn scoundrels, you won’t succeed!!"
