Chapter 362: Chapter 361 Change of Strategy

At this moment, Lu Chen, the Constant Star, achieved control over the movement and bombardment of the Crown Hole Beam by rotating left and right or up and down.

From a distance, it looked as though a massive Constant Star Body had opened up a colossal gap, with energy gushing out from within like a breached dam, eventually forming the incomparably grand and resplendent galaxy before us.

However, although the Crown Hole Radiation shot ten light-years away and was seven million kilometers in diameter—about seven hundred times the diameter of Earth, terrifying enough to be considered a true interstellar galaxy—compared to Lu Chen, the Constant Star with a diameter of over fifty million kilometers, this seven million-kilometer-thick Crown Hole Beam still seemed insignificant, only one-seventh of its size. Thus, from a more macrocosmic scale, the ten light-year long Crown Hole Beam ejected by Lu Chen, the Constant Star, appeared as if a light ball had transformed into a Cosmic Light Saber!

If one were to scale down Lu Chen, the Constant Star, and the Crown Hole Beam proportionally, one would find that this "light saber" very much resembles the lightsaber weapons in "Star Wars," except the hilt of Lu Chen’s "light saber" is a gigantic light ball, while the lightsabers in "Star Wars" still have conventional hilts.

However, many things can change depending on the perspective of observation.

If one considers not only the size of Lu Chen, the Constant Star, but also that of the Wandering Star System, then Lu Chen, at the center of the Wandering Star System with a diameter of four light years, emitting a beam ten light years long and seven million kilometers thick, along with the constantly high-speed rotating Solar Sphere Material, the scene resembles a tiny beam weapon from a Star System Level weapon "Star Disk," perfectly normal for its context.

But whether it’s a Cosmic Light Saber or a Star Disk Beam, these are mere metaphors for shifts in observational perspectives. The actual manifestation of the Crown Hole Beam more closely resembles a colossal seven million-kilometer-wide energy "water column." Every time Lu Chen, the Constant Star, adjusts itself to control the striking range of the Crown Hole Beam, since the beam is not a solid entity, a change in direction at the source causes the tail end ten light years away to abruptly lose propulsion and dissipate on the spot. The energy in the middle, influenced by the new direction of propulsion, will accordingly make a curved move, but this curvature has a certain lag, so in its entirety, the moving Crown Hole Beam forms a curved energy column with a natural transition arc.

Of course, from a majestic viewpoint, the Crown Hole Beam is an energy column.

But from the perspective of an Electromagnetic Super Man, such a small individual, it appears as a vast and dazzling galaxy!

Whenever this radiant galaxy moves, it’s as if a cosmic deluge has occurred, with countless Electromagnetic Super Men terrified and desperately seeking to evade, but due to the sheer coverage area of the radiant galaxy, many Electromagnetic Super Men still fail to escape in time and are directly engulfed by the surging energy, leaving not even ashes behind.

Such a terrifying scene shocked not just the Electromagnetic Civilization, but also greatly astonished the Wandering Alliance.

Despite their prior anticipation of the Crown Hole Beam’s power, when confronted with it firsthand, the sight of the staggering energy data on the screen still gave everyone a thrilling sensation, their faces involuntarily showing a look of shock, internally they couldn’t help but exclaim: The Sun daddy is truly formidable!

"Damn it! Command all individual personnel to return to the star system, change to advancing as a star system!"

On the other side, as they witnessed the far-reaching Crown Hole Beam causing massive casualties to their personnel, Electromagnetic Intellect had no choice but to change the strategic command once again.

However, due to Electromagnetic Civilization’s overconfidence earlier, having chosen the somewhat reckless tactic of scattered charging, about one-tenth of their personnel were sacrificed under the long-range bombardment of the Crown Hole Beam, with even several Planet Flying Devices destroyed, until the command from Electromagnetic Intellect was received and all Electromagnetic Star People retreated within the Electromagnetic Star System, putting a halt to the losses. Nonetheless, Electromagnetic Civilization had already paid a heavy price for their overconfidence!

But worthy of a Level 4 Civilization, Electromagnetic Civilization quickly recovered from their grief and formulated new tactics.

Electromagnetic Civilization decided to advance towards the Wandering Alliance using a star system formation structure, and to deal with the Wandering Alliance’s Crown Hole Beam, Electromagnetic Civilization, after calculations, ultimately devised a tactical interception disruption – simply put, when the Wandering Alliance fires the Crown Hole Beam, Electromagnetic Civilization will arrange for a large number of Electromagnetic Star People to launch Unified Power Beams at the midpoint of the Crown Hole Beam, rather than confronting it directly. This would have the effect of striking the serpent’s vital point, causing the latter half of the energy to collapse immediately. Furthermore, as they advance in a star system structure, Electromagnetic Intellect can also use its immense Constant Star Mass to launch Crown Hole Radiation, bombarding or harassing the Wandering Star System.

Boom boom!

When the new strategy was set, Electromagnetic Civilization immediately launched a counterattack.

Their hearts were filled with hatred at that moment, vowing to avenge their fallen brethren!

Many Electromagnetic Super Men fired Unified Power Beams, striking the midpoint of the Crown Hole Beam. Although the Energy Level of the Electromagnetic Super Man’s Unified Power Beam was far from comparable to the seven million-kilometer Crown Hole Beam, they had the advantage in numbers, tricky attack positioning, and unity in Mother Force. Consequently, under the near-endless destruction of the Unified Power Beams, the Crown Hole Beam ultimately disintegrated from the midpoint, causing a significant energy explosion and breaking into two parts.

From a cosmic perspective, it looked as if a bright galaxy had been forcibly severed!

Facing this situation, Lu Chen, the Constant Star, took the opportunity to cease the bombardment of the Crown Hole Radiation. Even though he could continue supplying energy to reforge the severed Crown Hole Beam, Lu Chen felt there was no need for it. The opponent had already retreated from the Crown Hole Beam’s range of impact, that is, beyond ten light years, and they had learned how to cope with the Crown Hole Beam. Using it again would not be as effective.

Secondly, although the power of the Crown Hole Beam was unrivaled, its consumption was also colossal.

Under normal circumstances, the use of Crown Hole Radiation required very little consumption, but as an upgraded version, the Crown Hole Beam’s consumption far exceeded Lu Chen’s expectations. It’s worth noting that just during that short duration, his Constant Star Mass had nearly decreased by two!

That is to say, the radiant galaxy of ten light years was created with the hydrogen equivalent to two Constant Star Masses!

Therefore, even though the Crown Hole Beam was tremendously powerful and had an extremely long range, after this experience, Lu Chen learned a lesson: he must pick the right moments to use the Crown Hole Beam, otherwise, he might very well deplete himself!
