Chapter 1048: Chapter 148 Raiders Chapter 1048: Chapter 148 Raiders For many Celestial Fields, the Apocalypse Storm was a calamity unsurpassable, but for some, it was a feast. In one Celestial Field, just swept by the Apocalypse Storm, the powerful beings within the star field were not completely annihilated but were severely weakened, their strength reduced by more than half.
“Too weak, not worth a strike, this Purple Origin Field had opposed us before, and now even their strongest have perished. They can only be abused by us, looted for a massive amount of slaves.”
A squad of fierce, pitch-black Warships appeared in a place called the Purple Origin Star Field.
The Purple Origin Star Field was not weak; originally, several Sovereigns of the second realm were stationed there. However, when the Apocalypse Storm swept through, most of the second realm’s strong were nearly all dead, and the civilization of the entire Celestial Field had withered.
“You bunch of looters, may lightning strike you dead, and may you never rest in peace!”
The remnants of the Purple Origin Star Field’s strong huddled together, shivering.
It was a case of misfortune upon misfortune; before they could recover, they encountered these ferocious looters, who robbed them amidst the chaos.
“Hahaha, let them curse, they will all be our slaves. Plant the soul-controlling seed in them, and they will be eternally ours, unable to live or die as they wish!”
These looters laughed heartily, unconcerned with the losers’ final lament.
“Haha, these people cry so pitifully, look at them, that woman is not bad, a Sovereign of the second realm, one of the few remaining Sovereigns of this Purple Origin Star Field.”
A burly man spotted a graceful woman, his eyes glowing.
“Are you seeking death? Don’t waste time; there will be plenty of time for fun after we return. If we delay and disobey Big Sister’s orders, she won’t let us off easily. Follow Big Sister’s commands.”
The looters mentioned their Big Sister, shuddering at the mention of their vicious female leader.
The Purple Origin Star Field was breached, the remaining strong were captured and crammed into a ship, and then they didn’t linger but continued onwards.
“This region was severely hit, half of Celestial Mountain Range was affected as well. Let’s move, towards that direction, following the path swept by the Apocalypse Storm; there is no Supreme God here, we will have great gains.”
The looters did not stay; their Warships, specially crafted, moved very quickly.
With overwhelming force, they passed through, crossing five or six Celestial Fields, looting resources and countless slaves amidst the chaos.
“Brothers, we’re returning full, it’s time to head back.”
Someone hollered.
“No rush, the Apocalypse Storm is a rare occurrence, and our route is very safe with no powerful forces ahead. There’s another Celestial Field up front.”
They broke through Celestial Mountain and entered a Celestial Field that turned out to be the Celestial Martial Field, and upon seeing the scene, they also uttered in surprise, “Eh, this Celestial Field seems to bear no traces of the Apocalypse Storm sweeping through; they’re rather lucky.”
“This is Purple Origin Field; I was here a thousand years ago, possibly too remote, the Apocalypse Storm lost its power when it reached here. The strongest here was merely the Purple Origin Sovereign, from whom I extorted quite a sum. Seeing an old friend again, they might avoid the Apocalypse Storm, but not us.”
A thousand years, just a snap of the fingers in a multi-universe, indeed mattered little.
The fierce Warship soared, arriving at the Celestial Martial Field with great bravado, yet they did not know it had changed hands.
“Purple Origin Sovereign, your old friends have arrived, won’t you come out to greet us?”
The looters shouted loudly.
“Who dares to trespass in my Celestial Martial Field, seeking death?”
The War God immediately sensed their arrival, the dimensional Warship rose into the sky, and many Sovereigns appeared simultaneously.
“These are a group of looters, surely here to take advantage of the Apocalypse Storm’s passing to rob this place, but it’s unknown where they come from!”
The looters looted outside, not exposing their identities.
“Celestial Martial Field, has it changed owners?”
The looters were shocked.
“Celestial Martial Field is also a place you think you can loot?”
The War God sneered, contemplating that someone dared to target them, commanding bravely from the Warship, and immediately ordered, “Intercept them, let none escape, bring them before His Majesty!”
“Not good, this is no longer the Purple Origin Field, we must leave this place quickly!”
The raiders, always bullies but cowards at heart, turned their warship immediately upon facing formidable opponents and tried to flee the area.
The Moonlight War Deity appeared, and with a fierce slash of her Moonlight Divine Blade, a warship exploded, blasting those aboard into pieces as vulnerable as ants. Awarded her divine status by the system, her power was extraordinarily strong, reaching the twin-heaven limit.
“This woman’s power!”
The raiders exclaimed in shock, all changing color as they were intimidated by the strength of the Moonlight War Deity.
The War God and the Warden Deity also appeared, deploying great Mana to blockade the raiders. Despite the struggle of the opponent’s Sovereign deity, they were within the Celestial Field directly controlled by the Divine Warriors, no place for them to contend.
The battle lasted several hours, with numerous raiders being slain, but some were captured alive.
“Your Majesty, this is the strongest of the raiders. I have brought him to you!”
War God dragged a raider Sovereign before Chu Yuan.
“Which raider force do you belong to.”
Chu Yuan interrogated.
The raider suddenly looked up at the divine being seated above, a human emperor exuding majestic dominance. Despite sitting quietly, the authority radiating from him instilled fear and trepidation, making the raider’s soul nearly collapse.
He gritted his teeth, obstinate, and remained silent.
“Seeing His Majesty, yet not kneeling, how audacious!”
War God kicked his knees, forcing him to kneel, and shouted, “His Majesty is asking you something, answer quickly!”
“Kill me, I know nothing!”
He was stubborn, aware that living a raider’s life meant surviving on the edge of a knife, his head figuratively on his belt.
Today he had fallen, captured alive, without any thoughts of returning alive.
“Quite the tough mouth.”
War God sneered.
“Hand him over to the Revenant, let the Revenant use the Soul Whip.”
Chu Yuan waved his hand, signaling for the man to be taken away.
Aahh!
Piercing screams erupted as the Soul Whip lashed, inflicting unbearable pain, leaving him unable to live or die. Though he feared not death, under the torment of the Soul Whip, he simply couldn’t die.
He would rather be killed by a single strike than endure the torturous cycle of life and death caused by the Soul Whip.
“Kill me!”
He bellowed.
However, Chu Yuan wouldn’t let him die.
This man was of great use. The raiders knew more about the terrains of Broken Celestial Mountains than he did. From this man’s mouth, Chu Yuan could learn more about the geography and the forces distributed across Broken Celestial Mountains.
“Speak, I’ll tell you everything!”
Finally, the raider couldn’t take it anymore and was brought over limp like a dead dog, weakly saying, “Your Majesty, please stop torturing me, I’ll tell you everything, I just beg for death!”
“Where are you from, and who is the strongest behind you.”
Chu Yuan asked.
“I am from Rose City, our leader is Blood Rose, a half-step Supreme God!”
He confessed everything.
