The Seventh Base - Chapter 1251 - Capítulo 1251: 10: Resolve

Capítulo 1251: Chapter 10: Resolve

The tribe was in chaos, and a great battle erupted instantly in the sky, with the tribal warriors fighting against the Nidhoggs.

“How could there be so many?”

Elder Rooney’s deep eyes revealed a faint trace of fear as he saw five Nidhogg giant beasts.

For many years, although Nidhoggs were dangerous, they never dared to attack the tribe. On the contrary, they often ended up being hunted outside by the tribe due to the tribe’s unity. The Nidhoggs were different; this arrogant and vicious race acted alone, cruel and bloodthirsty, selfish, refusing to share, and even fought among themselves. If they had the ability, they would kill and eat their companions.

This was the cruel nature of Nidhoggs, whose inherent strength shaped the species that allowed no other of their kind in one place.

But now, five Nidhoggs appearing together seemed like an extremely ominous sign.

Behind this… Elder Rooney felt some fear when he thought of this.

Have the Nidhoggs developed a ‘King’?

If a ‘King’ appeared, it would be their disaster, an overwhelming calamity.

According to legend, only the appearance of a ‘King’ could rule the Nidhoggs, allowing them to act in unison instead of individually.

Suddenly, Elder Rooney’s body radiated a brilliant energy light as he floated in mid-air, his entire being shining as he spoke: “Mr. Gaia, could you please help look after the children.”

He recognized Gaia’s expertise in telekinesis and field control, which could provide timely rescue with telekinesis.

“Alright.” Gaia replied, and as soon as he spoke, his figure appeared somewhere, where a small silhouette flew towards him. But a terrifying energy light column swept through that area, and as Gaia appeared, a barrier seemed to form around, with the energy light column failing to break through.

In the air, Rooney’s body appeared at the center of the Nidhoggs. As the tribe’s elder, Rooney had immense combat power. Even though he lost a leg in a battle back then, his fighting prowess remained intact.

At this moment, a transcendent from the Heavenly God Race also stepped out, frowning at the battlefield’s state before striding forward, heading straight for the Nidhoggs.

They too were curious to see how strong the overlord species on Pandora Star were in combat.

Taman took the lead, his towering figure like a mountain, swinging his massive arms and emanating terrifying energy light. His fists transformed into beams of light that blasted out. Yet, even for the Heavenly God Race, they still seemed insignificant in front of the massive body of Nidhoggs.

Nidhoggs were several thousand meters long, even those of giant bloodlines from the human race were no match compared to them.

The terrifying energy light column engulfed Taman’s body, but his fist still thrust forward, radiating energy light throughout, and with the power he had comprehended over the past two to three years, he punched hard, advancing while withstanding the energy light column.

The Nidhogg’s sharp claws descended menacingly, its massive talons resembling giant stones embedded with sharp blades, exuding an incredibly heavy sense of oppression, and collided with Taman’s fist.

At that moment, as powerful as Taman was, he still felt an irresistible force strike, sending his body flying backward.

In terms of strength alone, Nidhoggs were almost invincible, sitting at the top of the food chain.

“Together, kill this abomination.”

A nearby strong practitioner from the Heavenly God Race approached, joining forces with Taman.

The destructive power of Nidhoggs was immense, with five star sky giant beasts rampaging, almost all able-bodied warriors from the tribe stood out to besiege the Nidhogg beasts.

Meanwhile, in the sky above, the wind and clouds changed colors as a destructive storm was born. Within that destructive energy storm, a pair of terrifying eyes appeared, icy cold and filled with disdain, brimming with the aura of brutal slaughter.

Feeling the aura from above, Elder Rooney looked up and his face darkened slightly.

This was the sixth Nidhogg, and it carried the aura of a ‘King.’ Elder Rooney realized this Nidhogg must be the leader of these star sky giant beasts.

But fortunately, although this Nidhogg had a trace of ‘King’s’ aura, it had not taken that step yet.

Of course, such ‘fortune’ was relative, who knew the level of disaster this Nidhogg would cause upon appearing.

Being able to dominate other star sky giant beasts indicated that this Nidhogg’s evolution had exceeded absolute suppression on others, destined to evolve into the ‘King’ of Nidhoggs in the future.

Once it truly became a ‘King,’ it would be the end of Pandora Star, all species would become its food.

As the gigantic creature revealed its true form, over ten thousand meters, equivalent to the length of a top-tier large interstellar battleship, this beast was comparable to a super battleship, and its skin was as robust as the protection of an advanced battleship, imaginable how oppressing it was.

Rumble…

The destructive storm birthed, and the appearing colossus opened its mouth, spewing a Light of Destruction. A warrior from the tribe shouted, rushing under the Light of Destruction, raising his hands to transform cosmic energy into a Giant Shield, intending to block the strike.

But after only holding for a moment, the Energy Giant Shield shattered, and the destructive light column plummeted down, engulfing his body, instantly disassembling him into nothingness. Meanwhile, the destructive attack landed in the tribe, creating a canyon, killing many on the spot, extremely tragic.

Seeing this scene, the tribespeople’s faces turned pale.

Even the seven mighty Heavenly Gods felt the threat of the giant beast, sensing immense danger.

Yet the giant beast didn’t allow them time to ponder, once again spewing a Light of Destruction, intending to kill those in the tribe.

But just then, Gaia’s figure suddenly appeared beneath the destructive light column. Like the tribal warrior before, he slapped his palm upwards, instantly creating a spinning Energy Wall.

The pillar of destruction hit the center but did not pierce through. Gaia’s Divine Domain was unleashed to its full power, and he shouted, “You beast!”

His voice reverberated in the giant beast’s mind, making it even more frenzied. It let out a deafening roar that caused people’s eardrums to tremble. Its massive head swayed, and its enormous body swooped down, while the light of destruction kept falling, and the energy beams from its mouth grew brighter and brighter.

The tribal warriors charged forward, attacking the giant beast, but its wings swept through, sending two of them flying with terrifying force.

“You all fall back.”

At this moment, a deep and powerful voice resounded. Elder Rooney stood beneath the giant beast, and a blinding golden light erupted from his shattered body. Instantly, a golden light descended from the dim sky, illuminating Rooney entirely.

In this moment, Rooney seemed to transform into a golden form.

“Buzz…”

A strong light burst forth as Elder Rooney charged directly toward King Nidhogg, this elderly man with a broken body unleashed the most radiant brilliance of his life at that moment, rushing toward Nidhogg’s enormous mouth with terrifying speed.

“Elder.”

The tribal warriors seemed to realize what he was about to do and exclaimed in shock.

The giant beast’s eyes fixed on him, aware of Rooney’s intention. The terrifying pillar of destruction was aimed at Rooney, but Elder Rooney seemed oblivious as he charged straight into the pillar of destruction. The dazzling golden energy on his body appeared to melt away, yet in that fleeting instant, he plunged into the beast’s mouth.

The giant beast’s body suddenly trembled violently, its massive form bellowing madly in the air, while the energy beams from its mouth shot wildly without direction.

The enormous form soared into the sky, and the other five Nidhogg beasts seemed summoned as they rose up too.

In the high sky, the beast continued to spew energy beams frantically. A tiny figure accompanied by the energy light was seen being expelled, falling downwards.

The tribal warriors rushed towards that direction at great speed, catching the figure. However, what shocked them was that the figure’s arms were already gone, its body further shattered, barely clinging to life, covered in shocking wounds.

“Elder.”

The tribal warriors, who had all struggled on the edge of life and death, couldn’t help but shed tears upon seeing Elder Rooney’s miserable state.

Elder Rooney’s eyelids trembled as he struggled to open his eyes and weakly said, “That Nidhogg is injured, but once healed, it will likely return and is near becoming a ‘king.’ You must leave here.”

“Elder, please don’t speak now.” The tribal warriors wept painfully, holding Elder Rooney’s body as they descended downwards.

The tribe’s people hurriedly gathered around, and Gaia sighed at the sight.

Some tribal elders voiced prayers, asking the heavenly gods for blessings.

“Here is some repairing liquid.” Ye Qingdie’s voice came through, and she immediately brought over the repairing liquid. Though it might not prove very effective, they had to try.

The crowd made way, and Ye Qingdie administered the repairing liquid to Elder Rooney, causing some of the external wounds to heal.

Elder Rooney’s life force also slightly recovered.

“Let’s treat the elder’s injuries first; we’ll discuss other matters later,” Gaia suggested. Elder Rooney was a powerful cultivator, perhaps he could endure this.

“Hmm.” Everyone nodded.

A few days later, Elder Rooney had recovered significantly, though his limbs were gone.

Yet, he seemed indifferent to this, immediately gathering everyone in the Stone Hall for deliberations as soon as his condition improved.

“Everyone, we, the people of Pandora Star, have lived here for countless years, but now, we must leave,” Elder Rooney said bluntly, conveying that they could not delay any longer.

Some elders voiced prayers in the tribal language and then said, “Elder Rooney, I will not leave the tribe.”

“Very well.” Elder Rooney nodded, “The warriors, youths, and children of the tribe shall leave. Elders willing to leave can go, while those wanting to stay may remain. I will also stay in the tribe, to guard the Holy Land.”

“Elder…” With these words, many eyes turned to Elder Rooney.

This was a leap into the breach.

Elder Rooney had made his decision.

He would not leave; that was his faith.

But the youths and children must leave; this was the continuity of life.

“Elder, before leaving, the Heavenly God Race said they would return and bring elders to address the Nidhogg crisis; perhaps we won’t need to reach that point,” an elder sighed.

After the disaster, the Heavenly God Race took their leave, promising before their departure to bring elders to protect the tribe.

Thus, some tribal elders continued to hold onto hope.

“No, they left with Mr. Gaia.” Elder Rooney replied.
