Wandering Meteor

Boom boom!

The offensive of the Antimatter Civilization coincidentally collided with that of the Entropy Tree, resulting in a violent explosion.

In an instant, a blinding light burst forth across thousands of miles of the Star Realm, spectacular like a Supernova Explosion, with waves of light mixed with energy waves rippling out in circles, truly awe-inspiring!

Yet, at the center of the explosion, the clash of offensives did not cease due to the explosion, because the power of the Antimatter Beams from the Antimatter Civilization was too strong. The myriad Tree Needles of the Entropy Tree couldn't hold out and were shattered in an instant, with the Antimatter Beams carrying the remaining force continuing to charge toward the Entropy Tree itself. The Entropy Tree naturally would not sit by and await its fate, immediately controlling even more Tree Needles from its inner rings to surge out like a torrent to meet the onslaught. From a distance, this scene resembled trillions of demons dancing wildly, an eye-catching and terrifying sight.

Ultimately, under the relentless charge of the endless Tree Needles, the Antimatter Beams were blocked.

Though the power of the Antimatter Beams was immense, it always had a limit. It's like a bullet that can easily penetrate a wooden board, but if it meets a thick concrete wall, it would still be stopped. After the Entropy Tree absorbed the matter from the Star Realm Ball, it became that concrete wall to the Antimatter Beams.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

After deflecting the beams of the Antimatter Civilization, the Entropy Tree's system sensed a tremendous threat and designated the Antimatter Civilization's Anti-molecule Battle Fleet as its target for devouring and eradication. Immediately thereafter, one could see the Entropy Tree pursue its victory, controlling a vast number of Tree Needles to spread out and attack from all directions toward the three hundred Battle Stars of the Anti-molecule Battle Fleet.

The distant Wandering Alliance watched this scene, feeling it was very much like the tentacle monsters from an anime.

Facing the counterattack of the Entropy Tree, the Anti-molecule Battle Fleet of the Antimatter Civilization was somewhat caught off guard. However, what they did not expect even more was that such a special colossal entity would suddenly appear on the battlefield.

Because they had never heard of a tree-shaped nebula existing in the Universe, nor had they obtained any information related to the Entropy Tree. One could say that their knowledge of the Entropy Tree was completely foreign, and they didn't even know the origin of the Entropy Tree.

"Intelligence Bureau, what's the deal with the tree-shaped nebula that appeared ahead? Never heard of it; is it reinforcements from the Wandering Alliance?"

"I'm sorry, we don't know either. In the Intelligence Bureau's collection of information, there is nothing related to the tree-shaped nebula. At present, we don't know if the other party is reinforcements from the Wandering Alliance. However, based on some technological traits exhibited by the tree-shaped nebula, we have discovered some clues."

"What clues? Speak up quickly!"

"Our detection has revealed that the technology used by the tree-shaped nebula is the same as that of the Entropy Beast, also centered on the Unified Force, disassembling and reassembling matter, except that the Entropy Beast reconstitutes into beast form, while the present tree-shaped nebula reconstitutes into tree form, which means..."

"You're suggesting that the tree-shaped nebula might be related to the Entropy Civilization?"

"Given the current situation, it's highly likely. Moreover, civilizations in the Universe that utilize similar technologies are very rare, so we can at least determine that there is definitely a connection between the tree-shaped nebula and Entropy Civilization. Whether it's reinforcements from the Wandering Alliance and what kind of relationship exists between Entropy Civilization and the Wandering Alliance still require further investigation to ascertain."

"Hmph, I've long heard some fifth-level civilizations secretly conduct experiments on civilization evolution. It seems it's not entirely baseless, but what's unexpected is that it would be the Entropy Civilization. They created Entropy Beasts to eliminate the Universe's entropy increase, yet they could also be covertly conducting experiments on civilization evolution."

"Commander, this is just a rumor and has not yet been confirmed."

"I know, I was just making an offhand remark. However, I do think there's a very good chance it's true."

"Commander, do we need to report the matter of the tree-shaped nebula to headquarters?"

"Follow the regulations for this matter, no need to ask me. Do what must be done; right now the tree-shaped nebula has already launched a counter-attack, and I need to command military tactics. Quickly report the technological level of the tree-shaped nebula to me."

"Yes! Based on our current detection analysis, the tree-shaped nebula appeared using Jump Engine technology, which generally only civilizations that have mastered Information Resonance can utilize. This indicates that the technological level of the tree-shaped nebula should be around that of a fifth-level civilization. However, the manner of the tree-shaped nebula's counter is rather simplistic, only controlling those branches, which does not resemble the war standards a fifth-level civilization should have. Therefore, after analysis by our Intelligence Bureau, we boldly speculate that the tree-shaped nebula might be a type of intelligent entity similar to Entropy Beasts, with technological abilities equivalent to Entropy Beasts. The appearance of the tree-shaped nebula is likely not an action of its own initiative, but instead being transported here by a fifth-level civilization. In conclusion, the tree-shaped nebula poses a certain level of threat, but not much of a threat to our Anti-molecule Stars fleet, with a threat value of only about 0.4."

The higher the threat value, the greater the threat.

The Anti-molecule Stars fleet's threat evaluation for the Wandering Alliance is around 0.5, which means that in their eyes, the tree-shaped nebula is less of a threat than the Wandering Alliance.

In normal circumstances, this is indeed the case. Given the current technological level of the Wandering Alliance, Entropy Beasts are simply no match for them, and the Antimatter Civilization has encountered an Entropy Beast before and easily destroyed it, so they understand the situation with Entropy Beasts better.

At this very moment.

The Entropy Tree is controlling trillions of Tree Needles that have already traveled light-years away and are now assaulting the vicinity of the Anti-molecule Battle Star. Under the Commander's orders, the Anti-molecule Battle Star rapidly made the most incisive response, seeking to quickly eliminate this unexpected disruptor.

The Anti-molecule Battle Stars positioned in the forefront immediately activated their weapon systems, and a transparent membrane expanded directionally towards the location of the Entropy Tree. During this expansion, all material struck by it instantly lost its foundational information volume, thus being destroyed, including those Tree Needles, which disappeared from the starry sky in an instant.

Despite the vast length of the Tree Needles, as their front ends were destroyed, the rear parts rapidly grew to replace them. However, the Anti-molecule Battle Star this time is utilizing the Antimatter Domain, whose power and principles are not to be compared with the Antimatter Beam. No matter how many Tree Needles there are, they couldn't withstand the expansion power of the Antimatter Domain; thus, the Entropy Tree was completely disadvantaged on the frontline battlefield.

However, this is when the wisdom of the Entropy Tree became apparent. It didn't control the Tree Needles to attack from one direction alone; instead, they attacked from all around. Although the Antimatter Domain destroyed the Tree Needles in the front, it couldn't do the same for those from other directions. While the Entropy Tree made every effort to resist the Antimatter Domain, it also commanded Tree Needles from other directions to launch a frantic, death-defying assault.

To this, the experienced Anti-molecule Battle Star had naturally prepared in advance. The defensive systems were activated by the Battle Stars located on the outermost positions, and a layer of dark, projection-like barriers appeared in front of the Battle Stars. When tens of thousands of Tree Needles, akin to faster-than-light missiles, bombarded against the projection barrier, it was as though they plunged into a highly viscous liquid, rapidly swallowed without causing the slightest ripple, let alone any visible destruction.

Meanwhile, after failing to conduct an eight-directional attack tactic, the Entropy Tree had to face the Antimatter Domain employed by the Anti-molecule Battle Star fleet. At this critical moment, when the Antimatter Domain had nearly approached the Essence of the Entropy Tree, at the brink of a knife-edge situation, the Entropy Tree suddenly received a mysterious message from an unknown source…
