Foundation, exposed from Tianhe City - Chapter 57

Chapter 57: Starship Activation – Project 035?

“Hehe, I am the Angel King, and this is my mask..,” Hua Ye stared blankly at the flying mask, muttering.

“Damn it! What is this thing? Let’s go!”

Ruoning, standing beside him, suddenly pierced her arm with a sword, the intense pain instantly bringing her back to her senses. An energy ball burst from Ruoning’s hand. Hua Ye was blasted away.

“Ruoning! What are you doing? Why did you attack me? I need to get the mask… Huh? The mask?”

Lord Hua, in a sorry state, climbed back up.

The Angelic Legion…

“Damn it! Lord Hua escaped! Damn Ruoning, must she be our enemy as well?”

Angel Leng gritted her teeth in hatred.

“Queen Kaisha, this Possession Mask can manipulate and harness the power of angels, but from the footage provided by the broadcast, it seems that its power to manipulate varies for each living being.”

“It seems… the purer a person’s thoughts, the less susceptible they are to its manipulation?” Scorching Heart suddenly spoke up.

“That is the case. Although Ruoning betrayed us, she is a female angel, and her thoughts are still much purer compared to those male angels.”

“Well done, Scorching Heart, for quickly analyzing the weakness of the Possession Mask!”

“Does that mean our Angelic Legion can contain this mask?”

The other angelic sisters became more active in their thinking. The destructive power exhibited by the Possession Mask far exceeded that of an ordinary Third Generation Angel.

Lord Hua would have perished if it weren’t for Ruoning’s help just now. If the angels could control this mask, they could better uphold justice and order.

“No, Scorching Heart’s statement isn’t entirely correct. I have already deduced it using the knowledge from the Sacred Knowledge Treasury. The true manipulation of this Possession Mask does not depend on the purity of one’s thoughts but rather… whether the life form facing it possesses ambition and desires.”

“In addition, those viscous fluids likely possess a certain level of mental influence.”

Sacred Kaisha sat high on the Cross Throne, one hand supporting her chin, her eyes flickering with changing light.

“What? Ambition? Desires? Does that mean as long as we intend to contain this controlling mask, we will be manipulated by it?”

“The viscous fluid has mental manipulation as well? No wonder those male angels suddenly became so weak!”

“If it’s such a dangerous thing, it’s best for us angels not to touch it!”

Kaisha’s words caused the angelic sisters present to change their expressions slightly. None of them doubted Queen Kaisha’s words, and some even worshipped her as a Lord.

Little did they know that dealing with the Masked Invader would be far more challenging than they had imagined!

“The Gigantic Gorge” witnessed a scene that left Du Qiangwei’s face pale as male angels died one after another.

“Oh my goodness! Isn’t this thing too terrifying? Are those angels just dropping dead one by one? According to my idea, if it doesn’t work out, why not just chop this darn thing apart with an axe? Didn’t you say I have that so-called Nova Star Divine Gene?” Du Qiangwei exclaimed.

Crasher, wearing specially designed battle armor, expressed astonishment, “You? Maybe in another five hundred years.”

Du Qiangwei couldn’t help but snort in disdain. The current generation of crashers were, at best, super soldiers, not even a match for a single generation of angels.

What are angels, he asks?

Angels are the most powerful individual combatants in the universe, possessing space warfare capabilities. They are virtually indestructible, and fighting is their instinct!

The current group of super soldiers couldn’t even compare to a little Kalami.

“What if we nuke it? Use a nuclear bomb to destroy this thing?” Glenn suggested, scratching his head.

“A nuclear bomb? That outdated weapon couldn’t even blow off a single deck of the heavenly palace, but the corrosive slime from the mask has eaten away so much!” Lena remarked.

Pan Zhen, who was still far away, crossing the void to reach Earth, sneezed and rubbed his nose. “Achoo—Is someone talking about me? Why do I feel a slight chill?”

On board the Heavenly Palace, Lord Hua expressed gratitude to those who saved him. “Thank goodness you saved me. I owe you one, and I’ll remember this favor! Once I conquer this universe, you’ll be the queen of the cosmos!!!”

Meanwhile, the Masked Invader had somehow landed on a decaying angel corpse. Its rotten wings fluttered, lifting it into the air. Du Qiangwei, with a face as cold as ice, kept the sword embedded in her arm. Only the excruciating pain kept her momentarily lucid.

“These blood relatives are the ones I spared from extermination,” Ruoning said, “otherwise, male angels would have become extinct in the universe.”

Only a handful of survivors remained on the Heavenly Palace spacecraft, feeling even worse than if Lord Hua had been killed.

“If it comes to it, and this thing arrives on Earth, Du Qiangwei, use your micro-wormhole teleportation space to hand it over to me. I’ll throw it into the Blazing Sun Heavenly Tower and let Pan Zhen burn it!” Lena proposed.

Pan Zhen, still en route to Earth, felt a shiver. “Is someone talking about me? Why do I feel a slight chill?”

On board the Heavenly Palace, Lord Hua praised those who saved him, promising Lena to be the queen of the cosmos once he conquered the universe. The Masked Invader controlled one of the angels, emitting grim and eerie laughter. The scene was given a close-up.

The mask oozed pus, emitting a foul-smelling, eerie, and decaying stench. Many people couldn’t help but vomit on the spot. But everyone’s face turned pale when they realized what it was about to do. The Masked Invader entered the control room of the Heavenly Palace spacecraft.

“The battleship of the Angel civilization. Unfortunately, it’s not difficult for me,” it laughed sinisterly and placed its hand on the control panel.

The cold voice of the Heavenly Palace spacecraft system sounded, “System check passed. Member of the Celestial Scum Squad, change jump target, select the nearest inhabited planet, selection in progress…”

“Target: Earth in the Chiwu Star System of the Milky Way Galaxy.”

“Initiating space jump…”
