Chapter 1108: Superluminal Speed

Countless slabs of metal land were floating in the universe’s vacuum around the huge mecha.
The Crown Princess stood on a piece of land, looked at the huge bellowing mecha in the distance, and raised her eyebrows. She sent a message to the others via martial will, “This thing doesn’t seem that easy to deal with.”
The Silver Mage King turned into silver fog and encompassed the sky above several slabs of land, protecting the underground fortifications that were either darting around, buried, or tossed away. He tried his best to save these ordinary citizens.
Hearing the Crown Princess’ words, the Silver Mage King said, “I can’t leave these people to die. I’ll leave this mecha to you guys.”
Fang Xingjian’s Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection and Celestial Eradication Sword Technique martial art projection were both standing inside the huge mecha. They looked at the environment that had changed drastically and said, “It’s probably impossible to keep the rest of the parts intact.”
Ulpian controlled the white hole till it gradually calmed down and the black hole’s influence was finally wiped out completely. He threw a glance at the huge mecha in the distance but did not say a word.
Just as Fang Xingjian and the others were discussing what they should do, all the natives on the Morning Star broke down entirely. How many people could actually withstand seeing their cities get turned into dust in the starry sky so easily?
Over 80% of the population had just died in the great dissolution earlier. The fighter aircrafts, robots, and variety of large-scale battlecruisers were not in a good state either. Almost all of them were crushed by the splattering metal fragments, soaring land, and the mecha’s body that was transforming rapidly.
The huge mecha’s movements might appear to be very slow when seen from afar. However, with its mass, even if it were to move at a similar speed to normal people, the speed at which its body parts actually moved would tend to be several tens times that of the speed of sound. A minority of them would even reach over 100 times the speed of sound.
Under such speed and large dimensions, almost any battlecruiser, piece of land, or underground fortification would end up being crushed completely if they were brushed against even slightly.
The ponytailed young lady from the God Massacre Team was still alive. However, the lower half of her body had disappeared, and the upper half of her body crawled on a piece of remnant that was the size of a field. She looked at the huge mecha that was bellowing silently from afar, and her eyes filled with disbelief.
“Why?! Why?!”
“Mistress Catherine, have you given up on us just like that? You’re wiping out the entire world just like that?”
There were eight other members from the God Massacre Team who were still alive and beside her. However, their expressions were also extremely dark when they looked at the huge mecha in the far distance.
Fang Xingjian and the other three people’s invasion could be said to have caused the moon to crumble, the stars to sink, the lands to be destroyed, and the world to be annihilated.
Yet, in the end, the one who killed the most number of people and truly wiped out the entire world completely was Catherine—the person they had trusted the most all this while. This fact made it hard for them to accept.
Catherine sat in the huge mecha’s core, controlling it. Her entire body was wrapped up in layers of liquid information. They helped her transmit information and control the huge mecha.
Other than that, there was also an artificial intelligence that controlled the mecha’s each and every movement, supporting Catherine’s operation.
“A bunch of b*stards.” Naturally, Catherine had known what a terrifying disaster the Morning Star’s full transformation would bring. However, if she did not perform the transformation and retaliate in the situation earlier, the entire Morning Star would probably just be waiting to be destroyed without having even retaliated.
The spiritual ability production system—built by the countless cities and population on the spaceship, together with all sorts of authority restrictions—had taken her a lot of effort to develop. Catherine was driven by rage to see all of that gone to waste.
Just then, the artificial intelligence’s voice rang out, “Mistress, Fang Xingjian’s traces have been found inside the spaceship.”
“Throw him off using quantum transmission.”
As she spoke, the huge mecha abruptly turned into a faint phantom image and dissipated. At the next moment, it appeared several ten million kilometers away. Its activation speed and the area within its grasp had clearly far surpassed that of Spatial Translocation.
With this quantum transmission, Fang Xingjian’s Celestial Eradication Sword Technique martial art projection and Royal Heavenly Great Art martial art projection were left in their original positions. They had been cleared out from the mecha’s body.
The transmission across several ten million kilometers had far surpassed the area of detection by ordinary scouting means. After all, it would take several minutes for the light rays and electromagnetic waves to transmit from Catherine’s position and arrive in front of the others.
However, Ulpian squinted his eyes and immediately made a judgement, “It’s quantum transmission. With this means, it’ll take only an instant to traverse several galaxies or even millions of light years as long as the coordinates have been determined.”
Hearing that, Fang Xingjian’s gaze turned grim. “Then we’ll need to end this battle quickly. It’ll bring us a lot of trouble in the future if we let her escape.”
“How should we do it?” Hearing that performing quantum transmission once could allow one to traverse a distance of several million light years, even the Crown Princess’ brows furrowed tightly. Since Catherine possessed such movement techniques, there were probably no more means that could kill her as long as it was within her intent.
However, what they did not know was that the Morning Star Catherine controlled had yet to reach the level where it could traverse several million light years. The mecha’s body and quantum transmission devices were incomplete, so the greatest distance she could perform quantum transmission for was only about 50 million kilometers.
While the few of them were discussing their course of action, Catherine had made a move once again. The huge mecha’s fists clenched tightly together. There were no plasma cannons, high-energy laser beams, or blackhole missiles.
It merely tightly clenched its fists which were the size of the North America continent, and super strong gravitational force fields formed in the center of hands. Then it struck out a punch fiercely across space. The fists turned into phantom images and dissipated before appearing above the Crown Princess.
This punch was sent smashing fiercely toward the Crown Princess across several ten million kilometers.
For it to instantly traverse a distance of several ten million kilometers, this attack—although done through quantum transmission—could be considered to be one that was at superluminal speed.
The speed of light was merely 300,000 kilometers per second. To travel several ten million kilometers, even light would need one to two minutes to be transmitted. This meant that before the few Divine level experts detected and noticed Catherine launching this punch, the attack had already arrived.
Moreover, the super gravitational space within the mecha’s hand had almost reached the threshold of forming a black hole. However, there was no black hole formed. Instead, it had turned into blatant violence.
Bang!
There was no transmission of sound waves in vacuum. However, at the sight of this scene, everyone could still imagine what kind of loud sound would be produced from the collision between the two.
The Crown Princess felt as if she was smashed fiercely by the Sun at 100 times that of the speed of sound. Her will instantly became blank, and her consciousness seemed to have been crushed completely.
With just this one attack, the golden giant the Crown Princess had turned into was destroyed by this punch that contained super gravitational space. The golden will dissipated amidst the flames like an extinguished star.
The Crown Princess—who was at tier seven of the Divine level and a top-notch expert that could annihilate a world—was seriously injured by just one punch. She was almost unable to condense her martial will at all.
“Spread out!” Fang Xingjian’s gaze narrowed. “It can launch superluminal attacks using quantum transmission. Before we detect its attack, it will have already hit us.”
As he spoke, the three Divine level experts concurrently retreated via Spatial Translocation. The Crown Princess turned into endless light and fog that drifted in the vacuum, seemingly unable to condense to take on a form within a short period of time.
