"I told you so."
"The way you’re talking, it sounds like ten thousand people took out an entire super cosmic battleship fleet."
"Even the smallest super cosmic battleship fleet has a million people and millions of combat robots. How could a force of ten thousand destroy them?"
The warriors of the Black Stone Race, Kala Star, and Overlord Race all denied it, thinking such a thing was impossible.
What no one expected was for the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior to say with a face full of shock and wonder, "Indeed, it wasn’t ten thousand Earth warriors that took out an entire super cosmic battleship fleet. The truth is, a single Earth warrior almost completely destroyed the super cosmic battleship fleet of the Eternal Motion Race’s vanguard!"
Black Stone Race warrior: "..."
Kala Star warrior: "..."
The rest: "..."
Everyone burst into laughter from disbelief.
One person taking out an entire super cosmic battleship fleet?
Why don’t you just claim an Earth warrior created the universe!
The Black Stone Race warrior grumbled, "In the end, are you just trying to amuse us? Seriously, at a time like this, you still have the mood for jokes?"
"Oh, so it’s a joke after all."
"If it’s not a joke, do you think it’s real?"
"Even a toe can tell that not even a million warriors without advanced weaponry could withstand a single round of bombardment."
Everyone rolled their eyes, thinking the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior couldn’t have picked a worse time to joke.
With the Eternal Motion Race right at their doorstep, how could he joke with such dark humor?
Understanding the group’s disbelief, the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior anxiously explained, "No, my brother really told me so just now..."
Before he finished, Golden Cauldron came walking back from afar.
"Golden Cauldron’s back!"
"He’s talked to the officer; he must know what happened."
"Let’s stop listening to Old Purple’s nonsense. All he does is joke around all day."
The warriors of the Black Stone Race, Kala Star, and Overlord Race ignored the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior.
They even called him "Old Purple," a term tinged with racial prejudice.
It made the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior so angry he wanted to swear.
He was telling the truth, why wouldn’t anyone believe him?
The Black Stone Race warrior went up to Golden Cauldron, "Golden Cauldron, what did the officer say?"
The rest watched intently, wanting to know why the mission was canceled.
Golden Cauldron announced with a look of awe and wonder, "You have no idea what happened."
This line was all too familiar to everyone.
The Purple Potato Titan Race warrior had just said it.
The Black Stone Race warrior chuckled helplessly, "You wouldn’t say that a single Earth warrior took out the entire super cosmic battleship fleet of the Eternal Motion Race’s vanguard, would you?"
Others shared a knowing smile, thinking the Black Stone Race warrior’s jest at the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior was amusing.
But what shocked them was Golden Cauldron’s surprised reply, "How did you know? The officer told me that among the Earth warriors, there’s one called ’Zhang Qian,’ who wiped out the entire super cosmic battleship fleet of the Eternal Motion Race’s vanguard in one strike."
What?
Golden Cauldron said it too?
The Black Stone Race warrior, Kala Star warriors, and everyone else were dumbfounded.
Living with Golden Cauldron day in and day out, they knew his character well. Unlike that Purple Potato Titan Race warrior, he wasn’t one for jokes; he was a very serious and inflexible person.
This meant that what Golden Cauldron said was likely true.
A single Earth warrior really destroyed an entire super cosmic battleship fleet of the Eternal Motion Race’s vanguard!
Shocked!
These alien warriors were so shocked they couldn’t speak.
They truly couldn’t understand how one man could destroy an entire super cosmic battleship fleet.
The Black Stone Race warrior was the first to regain his senses. He asked in disbelief, "Golden Cauldron, if this wasn’t coming from you, I’d definitely think it was a joke. But since it’s from you, I believe it’s probably true. I’m really, really curious how one man managed to wipe out an entire super cosmic battleship fleet."
"Yeah."
"How did he do it?"
"I can’t wrap my head around it."
The remaining warriors were all in utter disbelief and urged Golden Cauldron to explain the situation quickly.
Golden Cauldron, unable to help but smile wryly, said, "Even the officer didn’t tell me the specifics, but hey, how did you know the story that one Earth warrior took out an entire cosmic battleship fleet?"
No one responded this time.
Many from the Black Stone Race, Kala Star, and Overlord Race turned their heads sharply to look at the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior.
The Kala Star warrior eagerly asked, "Brother Zi, what really happened?"
The Black Stone Race warrior followed closely, "Yeah, did your brother tell you the details?"
The other warriors, including Golden Cauldron, all looked at the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior, wanting to know exactly what happened.
The Purple Potato Titan Race warrior rolled his eyes, "Now you call me Brother Zi and not Old Purple?"
"No more, no more."
"Brother Zi, we were wrong."
"Come on, tell us quickly."
The group urged him fervently.
Seeing their change in attitude, the Purple Potato Titan Race warrior finally looked satisfied and slowly explained, "My brother told me that this Earth warrior named ’Zhang Qian’ can fly tens of thousands of kilometers in a second and grow to over thirty kilometers tall. He easily blasted apart the Eternal Motion Race’s super cosmic battleships, withstanding endless energy ray cannons and nuclear fusion missiles without a scratch. And then within five minutes, he wiped out the entire vanguard of the Eternal Motion Race."
"Holy crap!"
"Grew to over thirty kilometers tall?"
"Flying tens of thousands of kilometers per second?"
"Oh my god, are you sure you’re not describing a science fiction movie, but something happening in our reality?"
The warriors from the Black Stone Race, Kala Star, and others were stunned speechless.
Even Golden Cauldron, who knew a little about the situation, almost dropped his jaw.
This is just way too exaggerated!
Golden Cauldron asked incredulously, "Zixu, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course, what’s the point of lying to you?" The Purple Potato Titan Race warrior shook his head, "Otherwise, why do you think my brother told me to treat Earth warriors with respect? I know it’s hard to believe now, but don’t worry. When the space defense brothers rotate in, you can just ask them and find out if it’s true or not."
Ask they would, given how mind-blowing this was.
Still, they were even more curious about when Earth people became so formidable.
Ever since Lu Li made a name in the Milky Way Galaxy and later did something sensational on Kebi Star, many have been curious about Earth civilization, gathering Earth-related information and finding Earthlings to be weak and physically frail beyond belief.
Now, with Zhang Qian capable of obliterating a super cosmic battleship fleet, of course, everyone was curious.
The Black Stone Race warrior raised this question.
The Purple Potato Titan Race warrior glanced at the curious faces and replied, "That’s the same thing I asked my brother, and he told me something astounding."
"What is it?" Golden Cauldron perked up.
The other warriors reacted the same way.
The Purple Potato Titan Race warrior explained, "Apparently, the Land God can bestow divine power on others. That’s why this warrior named ’Zhang Qian’... or rather, these ten thousand Earth warriors are so fierce—because they were granted divine power by the Land God!"
"Holy moly!" The Black Stone Race warrior was taken aback, "You’re telling me that all ten thousand Earth warriors have the skill to individually wipe out an entire super cosmic battleship fleet like Zhang Qian?"
Golden Cauldron and all the others widened their eyes in surprise, thinking they must have heard wrong.
The Purple Potato Titan Race warrior confirmed their doubts, "Yes, it is said that those Earth warriors each possess the same immense power as Zhang Qian!"
In shock, the Kala Star warrior said, "I can accept the Land God granting such immense power to one individual, but bestowing such power on ten thousand is incredibly mind-blowing."
Lu Li granted ten thousand people the same powerful divine power as Zhang Qian?
The crowd fell into a daze, finding it hard to believe Lu Li was so incredibly powerful!
