Chapter 1418: Chapter 959: The All-around Tactician (End of the month, asking for a monthly pass, meow)_2

The Tribunal Warship turned swiftly without hesitation and fired again———the Dark Spirit Battle Ship dodged their attack with agile maneuvers, plunging into the atmosphere.

The offensive from the Tribunal did not cease; they did not care about whether their attack would hit anything on the ground. They pursued relentlessly as the Light Spear Cannons burst forth in quick succession, pouring down like a shower of blossoms. Soon another Dark Elf Battleship failed to evade in time and became a blooming firework under the relentless bombardment.

Under Clive’s command, the remaining three Dark Elf Battleships changed their course. One headed straight for the Star Alliance Headquarters, while the other two split left and right, taking a stance that seemed to indicate panicked attempts to flee. Meanwhile, Clive and his men had already boarded the escape pod.

"———————!"

As his battleship exploded behind him, Clive clenched his teeth, enduring the gravitational pull from the ground. The escape pod lightly spun in the air and like a feather or leaf, landed on the ground. The hatch opened silently, and Clive, along with his subordinates, walked out like ghosts.

"How many have survived?"

He asked in a low voice, and soon received an answer.

"A little over half of the crew."

"Good."

Clive revealed a smile.

"Let them go and slaughter, destroy, tear apart and defile everything they encounter, and buy as much time as possible for us———those monkeys will pay for everything they’ve done on Komoro."

Having said that, Clive raised his hand.

"Let’s move out."

Then, he issued the order.

Grand Judge Duanmu Huai strode onto the bridge; the blood on his armor had not yet completely dried, but Duanmu Huai did not care about that. He simply walked onto the bridge, to the command station, looking at the star map before him.

"Everything is going very smoothly, uncle."

Aikute was also pointing at the star map, quickly briefing Grand Judge Duanmu Huai.

"Since the enemy was completely unprepared for our arrival, their resistance has been hasty and inadequate. We have eliminated most of the living resistance forces. We have locked onto Komoro and can start the final plan at any moment."

"That’s enough. Load the Whirlwind Torpedos, summon the Wan Yi battleship, prepare to issue the Extinction order. Komoro is powered by two stars. As long as we can destroy these two stars, Komoro itself will directly perish."

As Grand Judge Duanmu Huai was speaking, he took off the Rose Knot from his person. Soon, an angel descended quietly, knelt before Grand Judge Duanmu Huai. She humbly raised both hands holding parchment, presenting it to Grand Judge Duanmu Huai.

It was then that Aikute’s voice suddenly rang out.

"Uncle, uncle———we have received an urgent communication from Star Alliance Headquarters."

"Put it through."

Grand Judge Duanmu Huai didn’t even blink an eye, and the screen flickered immediately. He then saw Li Longcheng’s face on the screen. However, Li Longcheng’s face was now badly slashed, with deep cuts nearly tearing his visage as if no longer human. His mouth was wide open, gasping for air, but he couldn’t speak———from the bloody foam at his lips and the dark void of his mouth, it was clear his tongue had been cut out.

"Hello, monkey."

A smiling face of a Dark Elf appeared from behind Li Longcheng, its hand holding a curved blade, rested on Li Longcheng’s neck.

Seeing this, the maidens were all shocked, but Grand Judge Duanmu Huai remained expressionless.

"Just as I expected, lowly Aliens always resort to these boring tricks."

"Shut up, monkey."

Clive’s expression changed slightly upon hearing Duanmu Huai’s mocking words.

"Since that’s the case, then you should understand why we are here. If you don’t want this monkey to die, then immediately stop your attacks on Komoro."

"That’s it? You think I would care about him?"

"That remains to be seen."

Clive grinned, then reached out his hand and took out a sinister green box.

"Perhaps you should take a look at this, a virus personally concocted by the Blood Ling. Within minutes, it can spread through the air to every corner of this planet, and all monkeys will die from it, without exception—oh, right, it’s ineffective against our Spirit Clan; I can’t wait to see those monkeys’ miserable deaths. By the way, our conversation is currently being broadcast live over the entire Star Union network. So, what decision will you make?"

"......"

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Huai fell silent for a moment, then slightly smiled.

"Alien, this universe has no place for those with weak wills and hesitation. Only through firm actions and convictions can humans survive. There is no sacrifice too great to bear, nor is there any betrayal too small to tolerate."

While saying this, Duanmu Huai pressed the Rose Knot in his hand.

"In the name of Grand Judge Duanmu Huai of the Tribunal, I hereby issue the Extinction Order to Dark Spirit City, Komoro!"

"You...!"

"Cut the communication."

Duanmu Huai didn’t even glance at the screen as he cut off the communication; then he looked forward and raised his right hand.

"Take action!"

Whirlwind Torpedoes roared out of their launch tubes, flying towards Komoro. Soon, a spark of fire appeared, followed by a burst of radiant flame, turning the dark city into a true place of pitch-blackness in another sense. Komoro began to crumble, like charred food, its burnt exterior fracturing to gradually reveal its core—a massive star began to emerge from the shedding Komoro City.

This was the city’s core. The Dark Spirits plundered stars everywhere for energy to power Komoro City, and now, this would become their grave.

"Activate the Wan Yi battleship."

The massive warship suddenly appeared; it spread its wings, and a huge beam of light burst from its cannon, shooting straight at the core. Not long after, under the radiance of the Wan Yi battleship’s beam, the originally stable starlight started to become active, and finally, reached a critical point.

The Tribunal fleet silently vanished from the Boundary Passage, and at the same time, a dazzling light suddenly brightened, illuminating the perpetual darkness within the Boundary Passage.

For the first, and last time, such a resplendent light swallowed everything.

"Komoro has been utterly annihilated."

Aikute stared at the star map, and after a long while, cautiously provided an answer with her usual prudence.

"Also, uncle, just now a message came from the Star Alliance: the Star Alliance homeworld has been infected by the virus... we..."

"Proceed to the Star Alliance homeworld; issue the Extinction Order."

There was not the slightest change in Duanmu Huai’s expression.

"They die for the wellbeing of all humans; what we do is save them from suffering."
