Chapter 470 Returning Home
Li Chenglong got up, took a thorough shower, changed into clean clothes, and tidied up his appearance. Since his golden hair had grown a bit long, he even had the robot inside the Flying Dragon ship give him a new hairstyle.
He went to the cockpit and sat in the captain's seat. Ada said to him, "We have now arrived in the vicinity of Pluto and are preparing for the next jump voyage. Due to time constraints, we plan to jump to the vicinity of the moon in one go this time, and then fly to Earth."
Li Chenglong nodded: "Okay, let's do it this way. But we still need to be careful after entering the Earth Sphere. Although we did sign some ceasefire agreements with the aliens when I left, so much time has passed now, and we don't know what changes might have occurred."
Half an hour later, the Hiryu was ready to perform a jump and immediately began the jump. However, halfway through the flight, the Hiryu experienced a violent shaking and returned directly to ordinary space from the jump route.
Li Chenglong looked up and saw that the space ahead was covered by a thick, black mist-like substance, which was also blocking the detection of all the instruments on the Flying Dragon. Just as Li Chenglong was still observing the "black mist" ahead, Ada suddenly reported: "Captain, look at that planet over there. According to previous records, that should be Mars, with many alien coalition bases on it, but now..."
Li Chenglong glanced at the screen of another instrument and saw that the alien base had been reduced to ruins, and judging from the situation, it seemed that this had happened quite some time ago. Combining this with the strange phenomenon before him, Li Chenglong immediately stood up: "Oh no, something's wrong! I'll immediately perform dimensional travel to try to break through this black fog. The Flying Dragon will first enter my psionic space and fill it with energy."
After making the arrangements, Li Chenglong quickly donned the latest spacesuit, first teleporting outside the spaceship, then storing the Flying Dragon inside. He activated his psionic energy and mobilized a small portion of the G-Gem's power, beginning his dimensional travel. In just thirty minutes, he broke through the black mist and arrived in the Earth Sphere.
But the scene before him still greatly shocked him. Starting from the Martian sphere, the entire region was completely shrouded in black mist. The sun, as well as all the planets and asteroids within the mist, seemed to be encased in a giant sphere. The alien bases on the moon had also suffered severe damage, and there was no sign of life.
Li Chenglong could tell from those traces that these were unique signs of the Void Creatures' rampage, proving that both the alien Martian and lunar bases had suffered devastating attacks from the Void Creatures. Thinking this, he immediately activated his dimensional portal and rushed towards Dawn City.
The scene shifts to Dawn City, where Yun Lan stands solemnly on the outermost city wall, gazing into the distance. Beside her, Li Xue, looking weary, advises her, "Sister-in-law, you haven't even finished your postpartum confinement period, and you're already out fighting. You haven't rested for days and nights. How can your body take it? We have Teacher Lena, Cecily, and Miss Erica here, and our allies Marina and Keltilan will also help us."
Yunlan stared into the distance, saying without turning her head, "No, the attacks of these void creatures have become increasingly fierce these past two days. The Clear Water Base has been completely captured. The Flying Cloud Base has also evacuated to our Dawn City. Now is the most critical moment, how can I rest?"
Seeing that she couldn't persuade her like that, Li Xue immediately said, "Then sister-in-law, Yunxi also needs to breastfeed, right? Why don't you go back and feed her some milk first, and then come back? Is that alright?"
Yunlan turned her head and looked at Li Xue with bloodshot eyes, saying, "Li Yunxi is Li Chenglong's and Yunlan's daughter. She's not that delicate. Besides, I prepared enough breast milk and put it in the refrigerator before I came. I believe Su Qian and Yun Hao can take good care of her."
While the two were still talking, Lena shouted from a short distance away, "Attention all troops! The void creatures are here again! Sound the alarm immediately! All troops, get to your combat posts!"
Upon hearing her shout and hearing the alarm sound, the warriors who were resting against the city wall immediately picked up their weapons, while Marina, Keltilan, Sitros, Cecily, Erica, and others activated their powers and appeared at various key locations.
Yunlan stood on the city wall, summoning the Holy Spirit Spear. She watched the surging void creatures from the sky and ground in the distance, preparing for a final, desperate battle. To her left was Li Xue, and to her right were Han Xiaoling and Zhao Liying. The special forces team, including Yang Liu, had already dispersed to various combat units to assist them in the fight.
Just as everyone was preparing to fight the surging enemy, 13 white vortexes suddenly appeared in the sky and began to spin rapidly. The void creatures attacking Dawn City from the air and the ground were quickly drawn into the sky by the gravity generated by the vortexes.
As the 13 white vortexes accelerated their rotation, more and more void creatures were drawn into them. Eventually, these vortexes merged into an enormous vortex, its color gradually changing from white to blood red. Suddenly, the vortex exploded, and a dark rift appeared in the sky. The remains of the void creatures were completely absorbed into the rift and disappeared.
However, even such a powerful dimensional explosion only killed a portion of the void creatures, and a considerable number of them continued to rush towards Dawn City.
"Let me do it!" A loud shout rang out, and a golden ball of light landed on the city gate tower. Immediately, an extremely powerful energy emanated from the ball of light, and a huge golden dragon roared out, tumbling freely in the air, its size gradually increasing.
At this moment, the ball of light gradually disappeared, and everyone confirmed that this person was indeed General Li Chenglong, the city lord who had been searching for them and whose whereabouts were unknown.
Li Chenglong raised the Emperor Sword high and soared into the air, shouting, "All experts above level 11, lend me your power! I need your power!"
Upon hearing his words, everyone unleashed their strongest power, which shot towards the giant dragon circling in the air like streaks of light. With each infusion of energy, the golden dragon grew larger, and the light emanating from the Emperor's Sword held high by Li Chenglong shone even brighter.
Since the Void Creatures are monsters that crave all high-energy entities, Li Chenglong, who had gathered enormous energy, attracted all their attention. The Void Creatures all changed direction and rushed towards Li Chenglong's location.
This was exactly the effect Li Chenglong wanted; it would allow him to wipe them all out in one fell swoop. Feeling that he had accumulated enough energy, he brandished the Emperor Sword, which shone with dazzling light, and shouted, "Emperor Holy Dragon Yuan Qi Slash! Kill them!" With that, he fiercely slashed at the surging void creatures with his sword.
The enormous golden dragon above his head also plunged straight down in the direction the Emperor's Sword had swung. Instantly, as if a nuclear explosion had occurred, the entire Dawn City began to shake violently under the impact of the energy. Waves of energy spread outward from the point of explosion like tidal waves.
A full minute passed before the shaking of the ground gradually stopped. Fortunately, Dawn City had extremely strong earthquake resistance; otherwise, it would have been razed to the ground. As the dust settled, everyone was astonished to find that all the void creatures that had surged like waves had vanished without a trace, and Li Chenglong was already standing on the city wall.
Using such a powerful move all at once had taken a heavy toll on him. Panting, he said to Zheng Yong, Feng Tian, and the others who rushed over, "Just proceed as usual. I'm going to where I need to go now." After saying that, he quickly walked up to Yun Lan, who was very weak and thin, with a sunken face.
Without saying a word, Yunlan rushed into Li Chenglong's arms and then fainted. Li Chenglong, holding Yunlan, disappeared from everyone's sight in an instant. All he wanted to do now was let Yunlan rest properly.
