“This… this is simply not on the same level,” Luo Feng couldn’t help but feel panic rising in his heart.
After infiltrating the intelligent system of the adventurer’s spacecraft and retrieving the data, he discovered—
This time, the Norlanshan Family’s conquest of Earth would begin with small spacecraft as the vanguard, followed by the main force of the Norlanshan Family fleet. This fleet consisted of two warships, with the leading force being the direct disciple of the family head, ‘Pula,’ and seven other direct disciples assisting him!
Around these eight direct disciples, more than thirty Norlanshan Guards followed!
Direct disciples of the family head were of noble status, a title granted only to those who had achieved the ‘Stellar King 9th Order.’
The Norlanshan Guards were the most elite warriors of the Norlanshan Family, each one invaluable, with strength at the ‘Stellar King 9th Order.’
More than forty warriors at the Stellar King 9th Order, and even more at the 8th and 7th Orders… According to the data extrapolated by Bro Norlanshan’s intelligent light brain ‘Atuka,’ the number of Stellar King-level warriors aboard the two warships should be around a thousand, with over ten thousand Planetary-level warriors.
“A Stellar King 9th Order alone could sweep across Earth. Now they’re sending over forty!” Luo Feng’s face darkened.
“This is a real problem,” Thunder God said grimly, his eyes flashing like lightning. “Forty plus Stellar King 9th Orders, leading around a thousand Stellar Kings, and over ten thousand Planetary warriors. How can we fight them? It’s simply impossible unless we have a Cosmic-level expert. But where would we find a Cosmic-level expert?”
Luo Feng gritted his teeth in frustration.
Cosmic-level?
If given one or two years, his ‘Golden-Horned Giant Beast’ body could reach Cosmic level! But the Norlanshan Family fleet would arrive in just three months.
“Three months. Only three months left,” Luo Feng murmured softly.
Suddenly, Hong, who had been sitting silently with his eyes closed, opened his eyes.
“Did you find anything?” Thunder God looked toward Hong.
Luo Feng also turned his gaze toward him.
“Hmm.”
Hong nodded, his expression even more serious. “The ‘Norlanshan Family’ of the Karo Empire is only a small family in the vast universe, and it’s quite easy to find general information about them on the Virtual Universe Network.”
“The Norlanshan Family was founded 81,066 years ago by the Cosmic-level expert ‘Norlanshan’ himself, who became the first family head. His name also became the family surname.”
“Norlanshan was a man of extraordinary talent and insight. After reaching Cosmic level, he took many disciples.”
“Currently, Norlanshan himself has reached the ‘Cosmic 9th Order.’ He has many disciples and is very skilled in teaching them. Among them, six have also become Cosmic-level experts. Of these six disciples, two are from the Norlanshan Family itself, serving as the second family head and the current, third family head,” Hong said gravely.
“What?” Luo Feng was stunned.
Although he had long suspected that having a master increased the likelihood of reaching Cosmic level, the Norlanshan Family, including its founder, had a total of seven Cosmic-level experts!
“How can we fight this?” Thunder God was also alarmed.
“The Norlanshan Family is the third most powerful family in the Karo Empire,” Hong continued. “The Karo Empire is a low-level civilization nation, one of the 500+ vassal states of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, yet it ranks among the top three in power among those vassal states. The most powerful family in the Karo Empire is the royal family, the ‘Karo Family,’ whose top expert is a ‘Domain Lord.'”
“The second most powerful family in the Karo Empire is the ‘Weidi Family.'”
Luo Feng’s mind stirred. The Weidi Family? His good friend from Qiu Long Star, Gao Sheng Weidi, had once mentioned ‘Karo Coins.’ Was the Weidi Family a family within the Karo Empire? But Gao Sheng had said on Qiu Long Star that there was no one on the planet he couldn’t provoke.
How could someone dare to say that if he were merely part of a low-level civilization nation’s family?
Perhaps Gao Sheng Weidi and this Weidi Family were not from the same lineage?
“The Weidi Family is a commercial family, with their ancestral home in the Karo Empire,” Hong continued. “Nowadays, the majority of the Weidi Family’s forces are in the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, even extending into the Qianwu Cosmic Nation. Their overall strength is even more terrifying than the entire Karo Empire. However, within the Karo Empire itself, the Weidi Family only maintains their ancestral home, with about a dozen Cosmic-level experts remaining.”
“The third most powerful family in the Karo Empire is the Norlanshan Family!”
“Because he was able to train six Cosmic-level disciples, Norlanshan himself gained great fame, attracting many to join his ranks. After tens of thousands of years of development, the Norlanshan Family now controls over a thousand life-bearing planets. Their most elite warriors, the ‘Eight Thousand Norlanshan Guards,’ refer to at least eight thousand Stellar King 9th Order warriors!”
“The most terrifying of all is Norlanshan himself!”
“Norlanshan is quite famous within the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, known for his formidable combat power.”
…
Luo Feng felt a sense of helplessness. Facing such a massive Norlanshan Family, resistance seemed impossible.
Eight thousand Norlanshan Guards!
Seven Cosmic-level experts!
“What should we do?”
“In just three months, my Golden-Horned Giant Beast body won’t be able to reach Cosmic level,” Luo Feng thought rapidly. “To become Earth’s Lord, I must first reach Stellar King level in this human form within three months, obtain the bank account left by my teacher, and then purchase Earth.”
There were three options for claiming an unclaimed planet.
First, receive a reward without any other benefits. How Earth was handled would be out of Luo Feng’s hands.
Second, pay to become Earth’s Lord, but the Black Dragon Mountain Empire would retain the right to collect import and export tariffs on the planet.
Third, purchase the planet outright, gaining full authority.
The first option was unacceptable to Luo Feng. Choosing it would leave humanity’s fate uncertain.
“I’ll have to find a way to reach Stellar King level as quickly as possible,” Luo Feng clenched his teeth. “Combining Bi Bo Sui with Mu Ya Crystal, in three months… it might still be possible.”
“Brother, Brother, the world leaders are almost all at the War God Palace. Let’s enter the virtual space.”
“Okay.”
“Let’s go.”
Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God all entered their personal meditation chambers nearby and then entered the virtual space known as the War God Palace.
…
For countless years, Earth’s humans had never truly interacted with a cosmic nation. Now, a powerful family from a cosmic nation sought to conquer and control the entire Earth? When the three of them revealed the enemy’s strength, Earth’s upper echelons were filled with anxiety, panic, and confusion.
What should they do?
These leaders were indeed Earth’s elite, and in the end, they devised a detailed plan.
…
On the rooftop of the castle.
Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God all gazed down at the land below.
“We have no choice,” Hong said softly.
“Luofeng, you weren’t lying to us, were you? There really is such an account?” Thunder God looked at Luo Feng.
“Yes, but I must reach the Stellar King level before I can access this bank account,” Luo Feng also looked at the endless stream of people on the streets below. Only his wife, Hong, and Thunder God knew about the account he would receive upon reaching Stellar King level.
“Let’s do it! We’ll take this gamble,” Thunder God said.
“Gambling it all,” Hong said grimly.
“Yes, gamble,” Luo Feng nodded slightly.
Luo Feng said gravely, “If I reach the Stellar King level within three months, everything will be fine.”
“If I don’t reach the Stellar King level within three months, then… I’ll have to send the samples and data to the Black Dragon Mountain Empire and receive a reward of 100 billion Black Dragon Coins. Earth’s ownership will go to the Black Dragon Mountain Empire, at least preventing the Norlanshan Family from seizing it,” Luo Feng said slowly. “And for the Black Dragon Mountain Empire to control Earth, after passing through the wormhole, it will still take more than two years of interstellar travel.”
“In those two years, I can use a spaceship to secretly relocate Earth’s population!”
That was the plan!
A two-pronged approach!
Success meant becoming Earth’s Lord.
Failure meant orchestrating a “golden cicada shedding its shell,” relocating Earth’s population within two years! Of course, this path would be arduous. Relocating nearly seventy billion people would be extremely difficult and painful. Luo Feng would not choose this path unless it was the last resort.
…
That afternoon, around three o’clock.
Thunder God’s daughter, Hong’s children, and Luo Feng’s family gathered at the castle. Many of Earth’s top leaders also arrived!
“Be careful on other planets in the universe.”
“The hopes of billions on Earth rest on your shoulders.”
“Good luck.”
Under the words and expectations of the crowd, Luo Feng kissed his wife and children, then flew toward the Black Dragon spaceship hovering in the sky with Hong and Thunder God.
“Dad, come back soon.”
“Dad.”
The two children, held by Xu Xin, shouted loudly.
“Okay!”
Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God simultaneously entered the cabin of the Black Dragon spaceship.
Click!
The cabin door closed. The Black Dragon spaceship quickly ascended, carrying the hopes of Earth’s people as it departed Earth! And on Earth, nearly seventy billion people, the vast majority unaware… beneath their peaceful lives, three individuals had already left Earth, venturing into the vast universe to fight for a glimmer of hope for them.
…
Inside the Black Dragon spaceship’s control room, the external view was 100% virtual.
Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God all turned to look at the beautiful blue planet behind them.
“Barbara.”
Luo Feng’s voice was cold and stern. “Accelerate, prepare for cosmic travel. First destination—Bailan Star.”
…
The Black Dragon spaceship carried Earth’s three great warriors as it began its cosmic journey!
Last time, Luo Feng had traveled alone, simply to see the world and purchase metals for himself.
This time, the three of them traveled for the hope of all of Earth’s people.
…
In a vast expanse of stars not far from Earth.
Two long, flat, gray warships flew one after the other, both enormous in size. The two warships looked similar, each over six thousand meters in length. Now, they transformed into two blurred streaks of light, rapidly flying through the starry void.
Inside the front warship.
In the control room.
A handsome young man, resembling Bro Norlanshan, sat there, with three other men seated beside him.
“What’s going on?” the handsome young man frowned. “Can’t connect?”
“Yes.”
A dark-skinned man nodded.
A glint of menace flashed in the young man’s eyes. “This Bro… the old family head promised him the position of ‘Eternal Elder’ after this. He really thinks he’s above us now. Not giving us any intelligence about that planet at all. He’s ruthless!”
“We tried to initiate a call, but he didn’t answer,” another handsome young man also gritted his teeth angrily. “Pula, I think we should…” He made a slashing motion with his hand!
The other two were startled.
The handsome young man ‘Pula’ shook his head slightly. “Don’t act recklessly. The family’s affairs are too important. Anyway, we’ll arrive at that planet in three months. According to the old family head, there may be a great treasure on that planet!”
