Chapter 389 Fear

The red jellyfish Leviathan left the interior of the star under Chen Ming's pressure.

The Zerg fleet, which had been waiting for a long time, surrounded it immediately.

And this time Chen Ming was going to kill it directly.

Therefore, all the Zerg fleets had entered the phase space at this time, and could not be observed in the normal universe at all.

They quietly lurked beside Leviathan, which was heading towards a small number of Zerg fleets in the normal universe, and aimed the targeted weapons that Chen Ming had specially prepared for a long time at it.

Chen Ming prepared for nearly ten days, and the three thousand Zerg fleets immediately opened fire at Chen Ming's command.

However, only one-third of them opened fire, that is, about a thousand battleships.

And all the bullets fired by these thousand battleships were live ammunition, and they all used live ammunition weapons.

At this almost face-to-face distance, all the live ammunition weapons fired by the Zerg battleships easily penetrated Leviathan's skin.

But for some reason, most of the bullets did not penetrate from the other end of Leviathan's body, but remained in Leviathan's body.

Although doing so has left Leviathan with numerous piercing or tearing scars, judging from the previous situation, doing so has no meaning other than wasting bullets. The body of this Leviathan is not the key to its existence.

But as the bullets that washed Leviathan like a metal storm continued to hit.

The intensity of the electromagnetic pulses that were periodically emitted from Leviathan has begun to decrease visibly.

Unable to release electromagnetic pulses strong enough to burn the main battleships on a large scale, Leviathan has lost its greatest threat to the large-scale fleet.

The reason for this situation is very obvious.

The live ammunition fired by the Zerg fleet is not ordinary live ammunition, but special ammunition with Chen Ming's characteristics.

Ten days ago, when Chen Ming first started to study weapons against Leviathan, he did not know much about this Leviathan, and could only roughly determine that its properties were related to electromagnetic, radiation and light frequency.

So when researching, Chen Ming deliberately made three major types of weapons, electromagnetic weapons, radiation weapons and optical weapons.

The design of electromagnetic weapons is the most troublesome, because ordinary electromagnetic pulse generators have no possibility of being effective.

Chen Ming would not use this kind of thing to fight against a Leviathan that can emit electromagnetic pulses that affect this galaxy.

So he considered another way, the reverse way.

Electromagnetic signal blocking device, this is a common device.

However, what Chen Ming made was not a signal blocker used in the examination room, but an electromagnetic signal blocking device that he spent time and worked with Fan Chao to research in order to fight Leviathan.

He can strongly interfere with specific electromagnetic signal frequency bands, which should have a good effect on the jellyfish Leviathan that can release ultra-high intensity electromagnetic pulses.

However, in Chen Ming's needs, it is not forced interference through other electromagnetic signals, but through the absorption of electromagnetic signals by devices made of special materials.

After all, the reason why Chen Ming thought about weapons to block electromagnetic signals is that Leviathan has stronger electromagnetic pulses, and he cannot confront it head-on.

And this leads to a need for such a device when it is used, and it needs to be very close to work.

Under normal circumstances, this kind of thing is more used on oneself to shield electromagnetic attacks.

But now is obviously not a normal situation, and Chen Ming's psychic power also makes him not need to abide by many normal situations.

He only needs to find a way to put the equipment into the live ammunition that can be fired by the battleship.

This is not a difficult task.

At the beginning, he was able to use the optimization psychic power to finally put the jump engine that was originally needed to be stuffed into the warship into An Wuping's body. Now he can also put the originally complex device into the live ammunition intact.

There is psychic power for structural miniaturization and mass replication. The manufacturing cost cannot be solved by this psychic power. On the contrary, the cost has increased dramatically because of the miniaturization of the device and the need to be installed in the live ammunition to carry a very large force.

But for Chen Ming, what is cost?

With the support of the entire Zerg, each live ammunition fired by his battleship has a small electromagnetic interference device inside.

After hitting the target, the barb used to fix it inside the target will pop out from the warhead and immediately start the device carried.

At the same time, Chen Ming's psychic power will further act, using metal liquid to connect a large number of live ammunition together to prevent the device from being discharged, and can also continuously provide energy to all equipment.

Not only is it a function, his metal liquid will also transform into a truly large-scale electromagnetic interference device, further increasing the effect of electromagnetic interference.

Under such a wave of attacks hidden in the phase space, unless Leviathan simply changes its body, it must bear such damage.

Although Leviathan's body is not important, it is still its concrete external manifestation, and it cannot easily get rid of this body.

Even if the electromagnetic interference device left by Chen Ming in its body has almost completely restricted part of its power, it still has no signs of doing so.

At this moment, the Zerg fleet also changed its formation in an instant.

The second fleet has locked Leviathan.

This scale of battle does not require each warship to perform individually, but only needs to obey the absolute command of the commander.

At the same time when Chen Ming ordered to open fire for the second time.

The second batch of Zerg fleet also fired a new batch of live ammunition.

This time the live ammunition was different from the previous batch. After hitting the Leviathan, most of the bullets did not penetrate the body of the Leviathan, but exploded directly on the surface of the body.

A large amount of grayish fluid was sprayed around.

These fluids quickly wrapped the Leviathan in them, forming a sticky wrapping layer.

At first glance, it seemed to have no effect, but these grayish fluids became brighter at a speed visible to the naked eye, and their color turned into a fluorescent green that looked very dangerous.

And the color of the Leviathan's body surface, which originally emitted bright light, became extremely dim in turn.

This is the second type of weapon that Chen Ming specially prepared, the radiation weapon.

When the design of this weapon was just proposed, Chen Ming and Fan Chao still prioritized the idea of ​​hedging and used stronger radiation weapons to cause damage to the Leviathan.

The Empire just happened to have radiation-type weapons, which were the main weapons of the radiation-class battleships snatched from Yuhui, the microsievert-class light radiation cannon.

This thing is a pure radiation weapon.

Whether it was in the past or now, the Empire is still fighting with Yuhui very vigorously, and has a lot of inventory on hand.

Chen Ming also has it. For him, as long as it is not the main battleship itself, he can call on the main weapons at any time.

But obviously, the idea of ​​​​confronting Leviathan head-on is very irrational.

So the idea of ​​using microsieverts was still passed, and Chen Ming chose a more prudent way to make weapons.

That is, to use radiation-absorbing devices to make weapons in reverse.

It just so happens that the Empire also has something similar, an artificial material called radiation viscous fluid, which is specially used for radiation environments.

It can absorb radiation and use the radiation absorbed by itself to emit light for reminders.

The effect can only be said to be very obvious.

But it is not enough to completely make Leviathan lose its combat capability.

As Chen Ming's two rounds of attacks poured out, the jellyfish Leviathan was not a fool, it must fight back.

But just like the two Leviathans that were attacked from the phase space before, it couldn't find the source of the attack at all.

And Chen Ming's Zerg fleet also prepared the third round of weapons at this time.

It fired without any hesitation.

The third round of weapons was not the live ammunition that Chen Ming had installed, but a kind of projector that the Zerg biological warship had.

It projected not the needles made of the Zerg's carapace or the activated active energy crystals. It was a crystal that looked very special.

As long as there was a light source, it would be colorful from any angle.

It was such crystals that were fired in tons and shattered and exploded the moment they hit the Leviathan.

Countless cone-shaped crystals pierced into the body of the Leviathan, and under the illumination of the stars and the light of the Leviathan itself, formed a colorful area.

The body that was originally smooth and was rapidly repairing after two consecutive rounds of attacks by Chen Ming suddenly generated an extremely rough tumor-like object at every place where the crystal fragments pierced.

Each tumor-like object has a color that is mixed together but not completely integrated.

This is because the crystal fragments in the phase space cannot be expelled from the body of Leviathan.

The Leviathan, which originally looked colorful only because of the broken crystals, suddenly became colorful in the true sense.

This is the weapon that Chen Ming prepared to disrupt the frequency of light waves.

There are a total of three jellyfish-like Leviathans, each with a different color, and the change in the frequency of light waves will inevitably affect them.

This is indeed the case.

As these crystal fragments penetrated, the body structure of Leviathan was close to collapse.

All the previous damage Leviathan could ignore, but it was just at this time that the simple damage caused by the crystal fragments that Chen Ming specially found made Leviathan completely unable to bear it.

And all of this just now was done in the phase space.

Nothing can be seen in the normal universe, only that the originally normal Leviathan suddenly suffered a series of injuries, and in a blink of an eye, it was already dying.

But... it's not enough.

Chen Ming could feel that Leviathan was close to death, but there was still something missing, and he couldn't kill the monster.

These methods could only weaken its power to the greatest extent, but could not completely end it.

And as Leviathan's breath weakened, Chen Ming's robots left on the Zerg fleet felt a danger from all directions.

The power Chen Ming controlled told him that the space around the Zerg fleet was distorting.

This was not just the space station in the normal universe that was distorting, but also the phase space was distorted together.

At this time, the jump engines of all Zerg warships had lost their function, and any active jump would directly lead to the destruction of the warships.

And if there was no jump, then soon this distorted space would completely crush everything in this area.

It was this jellyfish Leviathan.

Like the nightmare of the plane, it mastered some gravity power, and gravity could tear space to its extreme.

This was the talent brought by being born on a neutron star, and it was also the basis for the ability of Leviathan to jump before.

However, its space power is obviously weaker. It is obviously unable to tear apart space and can only cause a certain distortion of space, which has been noticed by Chen Ming.

Chen Ming took action decisively, and the spiritual energy surged out, easily blocking the power that could distort the space.

But Chen Ming did not feel that the danger was gone.

Even the sense of danger reached its peak the moment he blocked the space distortion force.

The originally bloated and pitted Leviathan's body suddenly swelled, and the giant beast that had dimmed suddenly burst out with unprecedented power at this moment like a flashback.

Thinking about the phase space where the Zerg fleet is located in the normal universe, a violent space shock burst out.

Chen Ming didn't expect that it would still have the energy to do this.

However, he still reacted and once again activated his spiritual energy to suppress Leviathan's dying blow.

Chen Ming tried his best to suppress the spatial oscillation.

But the remaining aftermath of the space shock still crossed the barrier between spaces and acted directly on the Zerg fleet.

Every Zerg warship seemed to have been directly impacted by a behemoth the size of Leviathan, and was completely shattered in the aftermath of the shock.

Gray-green blood and fragments of biological tissue from the Zerg warships floated in this area.

If Chen Ming had not had time to react, I am afraid that not a single Zerg warship would have survived.

But even if he reacted, most of the main fleet, which numbered more than 3,000, was still destroyed in an instant, and was no longer able to pose an effective threat to Leviathan.

After this explosion, Leviathan seemed to have completely lost its fighting ability and turned around to return to the star.

As long as it can return to the star, the power of the star will help it clear away its burden, and all traces left by the Zerg fleet will be completely eliminated.

Even if the star is always extracting its power, as long as it returns to the star, it can in turn fill itself with the power of the star.

And it can also regain its original strength after resting.

It is obviously impossible for Chen Ming to organize the Zerg fleet again to launch a new round of attacks.

He sighed.

"There is nothing we can do."

Chen Ming, who was still observing the civil war in the galaxy from the highest point on the edge of the galaxy, clenched his fist slightly, and the flowing metallic liquid wrapped around his body. Instantly transformed into a biological armor that looked slightly heavier than before.

"You still have to use some external force."

After Chen Ming finished speaking, he disappeared from the spaceship and appeared next to Leviathan.

Something appeared in Chen Ming's hand that he had obtained for a long time, the core of purgatory.

This is the prototype of the last weapon he prepared...

It's just that he didn't install it.

After all, the cost of this thing is not on the same level as all the other weapons he prepared.

Even with the pirated Purgatory Core that Fanchao had reprinted some time ago, it was still difficult to supply the Zerg fleet.

So Chen Ming just decided to use the one he had in hand to complete his idea.

Chen Ming's psychic energy inspired the Purgatory Core.

This device, one of the top technological crystallizations of Shining Civilization, carries Chen Ming's will and acts on Leviathan's body.

Completely extract all heat energy around it.

The entropy control power in the core of purgatory can transfer entropy to other places, creating an extreme low-temperature environment in the original place.

This is an extremely low temperature on a cosmic scale, a space close to absolute zero.

When the temperature of an area drops to an extreme, even light will slow down.

Leviathan is no exception.

And this Leviathan, which is suspected to be inextricably linked to light, experienced even more terrifying phenomena when it encountered this extremely low temperature environment.

Its body is broken.

The restriction on the speed of light caused physical ruptures in its body composition, and then its entire body suffered large-scale tears.

Its body is falling apart, and it seems to have reached a dead end.

However, Chen Ming's perception told him that this Leviathan was still not dead, and it was still breathing its last breath.

Just doing this won't take away its life.

Moreover, Leviathan is constantly thinking about the surrounding space releasing radiation and heat energy from its own body, restoring the surrounding environment so that it can continue to move into the star.

Chen Ming's mental power is enough to compete with Leviathan. He can rely on the accumulation of mental power to drag Leviathan to death here.

But he wasn't going to do that.

He still had two Leviathans to deal with, and there was no way he was going to waste his time doing something like this.

And he had another thing in his hand that could be used.

Destroy the core.

Ever since Chen Ming snatched the Destruction Core from the Machine Tribe, he has never used this thing.

Although the destruction core helped Chen Ming take the initiative to build the natural disaster core that was the key to his power, the strength was slightly lower than before.

But that is taken out and looked at at a separate level.

When it is held in Chen Ming's hand, it will not affect the effect it can bring at all.

As Chen Ming's spiritual energy was activated, the aura of destruction covered Leviathan's broken body.

For a moment.

Chen Ming actually felt fear from it.

He felt fear from Leviathan.

Chen Ming's current power is mixed with a part of the power from the Fear Spirit Stone, and he can definitely sense this fear.

Is Leviathan afraid of the Destroyer?

No.

It is simply afraid of destruction.

Any sentient creature, whether carbon-based or hydrogen-based, as long as it has self-awareness, will inevitably fear destruction.

And this fear was transmitted to Chen Ming's perception through Leviathan's powerful consciousness.

But this did not make Chen Ming hesitate at all.

Destruction still fell on Leviathan.

Its concrete body was completely destroyed.

And its life itself, which was born from the fusion of electromagnetic and radiation, began to dissipate after the death of the body.

Chen Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately activated the psychic energy again on a large scale, constructing a psychic position restraint circle in the surrounding space, preserving the corpse of Leviathan in the state of electromagnetic radiation fusion that could not be directly observed by the naked eye.

Although a lot of them still dissipated, at least half of the bodies were still preserved by Chen Ming.

The first red M-type Leviathan was confirmed to be destroyed.

Chen Ming breathed a sigh of relief after confirming this, and at the same time looked at the Destruction Core with a little confusion.

He didn't think much about it, just put it away.

He also put away the Purgatory Core by the way.

When he saw the Purgatory Core just now, he immediately thought of a person, Hu Yi.

Half a year ago, Chen Ming went to meet him on purpose under the introduction of his boss.

At that time, Hu Yi gave some compensation, and then Chen Ming never saw him again.

It is estimated that Hu Yi should have gone into hibernation, and he should not be seen in the last few decades or more than a hundred years.

Chen Ming was a little emotional, but he still didn't relax completely.

He still had to continue hunting the next Leviathan.

That yellow jellyfish.

At this time, Chen Ming didn't consider using battleships.

The enemies encountered after leaving the empire were very terrifying, and the situation where the main battleships could not play a role might be useless no matter how many were piled up.

Just like the last wave, the battleship can only play a supporting role, and it is the Destroyer that really solves the Leviathan.

So Chen Ming decided to do it himself.

And this time he didn't need to use the previous means to force the Leviathan out of the star.

Because Chen Ming had just arrived in the galaxy through psychic energy, a frenzied electromagnetic pulse swept directly from the star.

Along with this electromagnetic pulse, there was a subtle fear.

Chen Ming just appeared here, and the fear seemed to have been entangled in this Leviathan.

This seems to mean that there is some way for the three Leviathans to communicate.

It also means that Chen Ming may need to speed up his actions further.

He wants to avoid the possibility of the remaining Leviathan escaping or directly supporting him.

Killing by force.

Chen Ming made up his mind and disappeared without any signs. He appeared on the surface of the star in the galaxy and smashed into it like a meteorite.

If an ordinary meteorite hits a star, it will only melt, but Chen Ming rushed into it with the momentum of destruction, and locked onto the yellow jellyfish Leviathan without any hesitation.

When Chen Ming directly used his psychic power to act on the Leviathan with several weapons he developed, he dragged the Leviathan into the abyss of weakness at the fastest speed and the highest efficiency, and let the destructive wave hit the Leviathan's body.

The indescribable fear that can make people with sensitive perception empathize with it once again appeared clearly on the Leviathan.

Exactly the same as before.

Chen Ming couldn't help but think about the reason for Leviathan's fear again.

And he seemed to find that things were not that simple.

The consciousness of these three Leviathans may be linked, but the death of a Leviathan does not mean real death.

And this fear does not seem to be aimed at death itself, but only at destruction.

The source of the Destruction Core... is that the Mechanical Clan used cloning technology to forcibly create dimensional infection, and then transformed the source of dimensional infection, and finally condensed the power of the dimensional infected entity into such a Destruction Core.

Leviathan may not be afraid of destruction.

It is afraid of the source of destruction, Scarlet.
