At this moment, not only Yadun and the others but even Brother Hero was surprised beyond words.
The drone in front of them was so enormous that everyone looked like insignificant ants in comparison.
Gazing at the mountain-sized drone, Brother Hero closed his eyes to sense it carefully, and then realized:
"This is a Destroyer Level drone... It arrived at Karon Star via projection, but for some unknown reason, it was already damaged upon arrival. Earlier, a hidden Dark Spirit Circuit was being sustained by its last energy reserve, which is why we couldn’t detect it in advance."
"Those parasites came from its body; no wonder they could kill a Sharp-Horned Worm. If it’s a Destroyer Level drone, that would definitely be more than sufficient."
Brother Hero shared the intelligence he had just gathered swiftly; the sight of this colossal thing was indeed shocking. A Destroyer Level drone was quite rare even among the Beller clan.
"Destroyer..."
Yadun and the others had limited knowledge about drones and were not very clear about the specific abilities of a Destroyer, but they knew some basic information.
If the highest level drone inside is the God Slayer, possessing Transcendent strength, then the Destroyer next in line has at least Upper Control Level power.
For such a powerful Upper Control Level drone to just fall like that? This was hard for Yadun and the others to believe.
After all, in their understanding, Upper Control Level was almost an invincible existence, only one realm shy of the legendary Divine.
Such a mighty being falling here, what could have killed it?
In the distance, several mechanical parasites poked around nearby, and it was unsurprising given that such a massive Destroyer Level drone would harbor large parasites.
"Send someone over, clear out the parasites; even wreckage from a Destroyer Level drone warship holds immense value that cannot be wasted."
Brother Hero told Yadun.
Yadun wasn’t foolish, knowing how substantial the benefits were, he quickly mobilized members of the Divine Revelators Army to the location, sparking a battle between the Phantom Spirit Clan and the mechanical parasites.
"Boom boom boom!"
A series of explosions sounded as the Divine Revealer warriors started attacking the mechanical insects.
There were many mechanical insects, crawling out like beasts living within the mountains from the drone wreckage, they charged at the Divine Revelators’ positions.
Although warriors struggled against these insects in solo combat, the situation was the opposite in group battles; the defending line formed by the Divine Revelators used their Dark Spiritual Artifacts to massively damage these monsters, and victory quickly leaned toward the Phantom Spirit Clan.
Brother Hero felt a bit itchy to fight, yet he was now Lord Divine Messenger, hence he couldn’t act easily, needing to maintain some mystery, occasionally dealing with a few unlucky ones that wandered too close.
These mechanical insects may seem formidable to ordinary people, but to someone like Brother Hero, a Controller, they were no threat, merely parasites from a drone, hardly menacing.
Soon, the Divine Revelators’ battle reached its final stages; these insects were swift but their attacks weren’t much different from ordinary beasts, being mostly wiped out within an hour.
A Governor condensed an Energy Ball in his hand, which crashed into the mechanical insects and obliterated the last batch into fragments.
"Phew~"
Yet, before everyone could catch their breath, a sudden change came from the sky.
A flash of purple light appeared, followed by a breach in the blue sky, from which countless Beller drones flew out, their dense numbers likely to be in the tens of thousands, instantly reversing the battle.
"Not good! It’s a Dimension Rift!"
Brother Hero couldn’t sit still anymore; he exclaimed and moved quickly.
He flew up and cast the Reverse Water Spell, unleashing a several thousand meter long ice dragon freezing the surrounding air. All drones turned into ice sculptures that shattered into snowflakes, scattering to the earth.
Yadun and the others were stunned; with so many drones coming out, their hearts sank. Dealing with the parasites was tough enough, now this sudden influx of drones, even if low-level Reconnoitres, posed a huge threat.
Yet, issues troubling them immensely were wiped clean by Lord Divine Messenger in one stroke, all drones annihilated.
Brother Hero remained vigilant as Dimension Rifts were continuous; without closing it, drones would keep emerging.
Below, the Phantom Spirit Clan members, though talented, were mostly ordinary people; this battle level was beyond their capacity.
He called the Star Alliance Fleet, only the force at his disposal could swiftly close the rift.
Soon, shadows covered the sky, the Star Alliance fleet arrived.
The Third Fleet came, promptly returning upon receiving orders from Brother Hero, the highest commander, as Karon Star was a strategic key location, Alof the Star Alliance base against the Insect Race in the Phantom Spirit Star System, its loss was unacceptable.
"Commander, Third Fleet, Swarm Team Operations Department Head Li Zixuan reporting!"
Leading was a handsome forty-something man, Li Zixuan, one of the first to pass the Swarm Plan test becoming an Awakener of the Star Alliance. Initially he followed Chu He to join the Third Fleet, coming to the Phantom Spirit Star System to practice, after twenty years he had grown into a capable warrior.
"Nice, keep them pinned, giving me time to close the Dimension Rift."
Brother Hero nodded at him, then flew toward the rift.
Li Zixuan immediately took his combat unit to provide side support; with the Swarm Team joining, the human side gained numerous drone reinforcements, the battle quickly escalated, the chaos was extreme, and Yadun and the others were struggling to distinguish friend from foe.
"Bad! The Dimension Rift is continuously expanding with tendencies toward medium-sized growth!"
Brother Hero noticed something wrong, breaking into a cold sweat.
If it was a small Dimension Rift, he could close it with his power.
A medium-size expansion meant he alone couldn’t manage it; at least ten Control Level experts were needed to close it.
This would prolong closing time, increasing attack risks, and monsters from the rift could be of higher Levels.
Medium rifts could accommodate a Lower God crossing.
Should a God Slayer Level drone emerge suddenly, Brother Hero couldn’t even imagine what would happen next.
