Chapter 135: Brutal Collision!

Words : 1574 Updated : Sep 21st, 2025

Xiao Yu’s technological advancements had reached the point where he now possessed the capability to destroy a rocky planet or a moon. In truth, even before Earth was destroyed, humanity had already achieved this ability. This method relied on the massive yield of hydrogen bombs to directly obliterate the target. While atomic bombs had a limit to their power, hydrogen bombs did not. As long as there was sufficient fusion fuel, the power of a hydrogen bomb was practically limitless. However, creating higher-yield hydrogen bombs became increasingly challenging. With a hydrogen bomb boasting a yield of several hundred trillion tons, Xiao Yu could directly shatter this moon. Yet, even with such a level of technological advancement, Xiao Yu had never imagined witnessing such an astonishing method to destroy a planet. That method was to directly devour an entire planet. Indeed, after careful observation, Xiao Yu uncovered this shocking truth: the Swarm’s Queen did not hide within the planet but had instead consumed it whole. This moon, with a mass roughly half that of Earth’s moon, had an astounding weight of 3,500 trillion tons. By any measure, it was a colossal entity. However, it had lost its qualification as a celestial body, reduced to mere food for the Swarm’s Queen. How many resources could a planet contain? After being digested by the Queen, how many Swarm units could those resources produce? Billions? Trillions? Xiao Yu couldn’t even fathom it. The Swarm creatures in this region were growing increasingly larger and more powerful. The largest among them had nearly reached the combat power of his Village-Class spacecraft. Xiao Yu had less than 100,000 of these spacecraft, but how many of these Swarm creatures were there? Endless. Countless. “So this is the Infinite Reproduction Alien Beast Civilization?! The wonders of the universe truly defy my imagination,” Xiao Yu murmured in shock. Then, another question struck him. “I wonder... how long has it been here? What about the Arrow Beasts?” Xiao Yu observed two rivers of light—one flowing toward him and the other heading toward the inner Aquila Three star system, directed at Planet One. On Planet One, only a few aging or juvenile Arrow Beasts remained. They did not possess interstellar travel capabilities. “I need to make this a quick battle!” Xiao Yu made up his mind immediately. He already had a plan. Though this Swarm Queen was incredibly powerful, it had one fatal weakness: its mobility was exceedingly poor. For such a massive and cumbersome target, Xiao Yu had the perfect weapon at his disposal. The hydrogen bomb. The technology behind hydrogen bombs was not particularly advanced, certainly less so than energy cannons. Hydrogen bombs had numerous shortcomings: low damage radius in space combat, unwieldiness, and slow launch speeds. However, they had one advantage unmatched by any other weapon. Their power could be infinitely increased. Xiao Yu estimated that even Level 4 Civilizations, having mastered the Grand Unified Theory and developed various force field weapons, would still find hydrogen bombs retaining a place in warfare. They would not be relegated to history. This advantage made them extraordinarily practical against planetary-scale fortresses. Onboard the Hebei, there just happened to be a hydrogen bomb with an immense yield. This hydrogen bomb had a yield of ten trillion tons. It possessed the capability to directly obliterate a planet. “Take this gift, you damned bug,” Xiao Yu thought, commanding his fleet as they engaged in a bloody battle against the Swarm. Xiao Yu had to carve a bloody path to clear the way for the launch of the hydrogen bomb. Objectively speaking, Xiao Yu’s overall strength was no match for this behemoth. Without the Hebei, he could have fled, but in a direct confrontation, he would undoubtedly be overwhelmed by the endless swarm of insects. But with the Province-Class spaceship Hebei—constructed using the flesh of the White Dwarf Alien Beast—Xiao Yu had an unassailable advantage. Xiao Yu’s fleet was now only 8 million kilometers away from the moon that the Swarm’s Queen had devoured. Along this stretch, the skies were completely filled with Swarm creatures. It was an ocean of the Swarm. Xiao Yu employed every weapon at his disposal: kinetic weapons, laser weapons, energy cannons, particle beam weapons, electromagnetic weapons, and more. Yet, he still couldn’t break through the endless sea of Swarm creatures. His objective was to get close enough to the moon to launch the massive hydrogen bomb and obliterate it. But now, Xiao Yu realized there were simply too many Swarm creatures. Every kilometer forward came at a tremendous cost. The Swarm continued to clash with Xiao Yu’s ships in an unending tide. In this situation, Xiao Yu barely needed to aim; even a random energy cannon or hydrogen bomb blast could kill thousands of Swarm creatures. But for every thousand he killed, another ten thousand took their place, and for every ten thousand, a hundred thousand appeared. Among the Swarm, there were close-combat types, long-range types, some equipped with energy projectiles, and others with scythe-like forelimbs evolved from their bodies. Xiao Yu even noticed a type of Swarm creature capable of moving at extreme speeds, using their bodies as weapons to collide directly with their targets. There were at least hundreds of distinct types of Swarm creatures. “I wonder how the Arrow Beasts are doing now,” Xiao Yu thought anxiously, yet he was stuck, finding it nearly impossible to advance even a single step. At that moment, for the first time, one of Xiao Yu’s County-Class ships was destroyed. Swarmed by the endless tide of insects, its energy reserves were gradually depleted until it exploded spectacularly. “We can’t delay any longer! I can’t kill them all, so I won’t even try. I’ll charge through! Let’s see if these puny bugs can stop the Hebei!” With a fierce determination, Xiao Yu ordered the Hebei to halt its weapon systems. He pushed its engines to maximum power and charged straight ahead. Yes, the most primitive method—brute force collision! The Hebei, now with a total mass of around 80,000 tons, maintained maneuverability comparable to that of a Village-Class spaceship thanks to its immensely powerful engines. In fact, the Hebei was equipped with 10,000 main engines. Including auxiliary engines for fine adjustments and directional control, the total number of engines was nearly 100,000. All 100,000 engines roared to life! Under such immense thrust, the Hebei charged forward like an enraged beast, smashing its way through the Swarm. Behind the Hebei, over 100,000 ships of various types followed closely, advancing swiftly along the path cleared by the Hebei. At this moment, the Hebei was like a mighty general charging through an army, majestic and unstoppable. In this state, the Hebei was indeed invincible! Xiao Yu saw at least 50 million Swarm creatures surge toward the Hebei. Long-range Swarm creatures fired tens of millions of energy projectiles, while close-combat types leapt onto the Hebei, using their scythe-like forelimbs to slash at its hull. These scythe-like limbs were terrifyingly powerful, capable of cutting through even the specialized steel Xiao Yu had developed. But despite the efforts of millions of close-combat Swarm creatures attacking the Hebei’s hull simultaneously, they couldn’t leave a single mark. The Hebei didn’t have an energy shield. In Xiao Yu’s tests, the charged flesh of the Alien Beast was far superior to energy shields. With such a resilient material, energy that would have been used for shields was better spent charging the hull material directly. In addition to the close-combat and long-range types, Xiao Yu noticed a new type of Swarm creature. These massive creatures were incredibly slow compared to the others. As they approached the Hebei and latched onto it, Xiao Yu understood their purpose. These gigantic creatures, numbering in the millions, clung to the Hebei and sprayed bright blue flames from their tails. Xiao Yu immediately felt a massive force trying to push the Hebei back. “They’re trying to push the Hebei off course to block its advance! Hmph, it’s futile. The strength of the Hebei is beyond the imagination of these filthy insects!” Xiao Yu paid them no mind, not even bothering to acknowledge their efforts. The Hebei’s engines, all made from Alien Beast flesh, were virtually indestructible. Even at full load, they posed no risk of burnout. Of the Hebei’s 80,000-ton mass, at least 15,000 tons were fuel. With ample fuel and immense kinetic power, Xiao Yu faced the Swarm without fear. Millions of these engine Swarm creatures added enormous thrust to the Hebei’s hull. Xiao Yu calculated that this force was equivalent to the combined power of two City-Class spaceships. If the Hebei had been made of conventional materials instead of Alien Beast flesh, it would have been crushed under the combined pressure of the Swarm engines and its own engines. Yet, the Hebei continued to advance, drawing ever closer to the moon consumed by the Swarm Queen. Billions of Swarm creatures were as insignificant as dust before the Hebei. Slowly but surely, the Hebei closed the distance to the moon. Only 10,000 kilometers remained. At this range, Xiao Yu could clearly see the intricate details of the Swarm Queen’s surface. “It’s time to launch the hydrogen bomb,” Xiao Yu thought, issuing the order. A specialized County-Class ship loaded within the Hebei came to life, its engines igniting in a blaze of bright flames.
