Ultragene Warlord Chapter 968: Overwhelming Strength

Chapter 968: Overwhelming Strength

The aliens believed that the members of Team Zenith and the warlords were the draconian world’s trump cards, but it seemed to have access to far more than they had given it credit for.

Zhang Lie had performed mass hypnosis on the genetic lifeforms to allow them to convey the aliens and fight alongside them.

The aliens excitedly picked out their own mounts. Subsequently, Zhang Lie waved his hand and announced, “Set off.”

The draconian world’s forces set off toward the Zongming world.

Zhang Lie tugged on Zhang Hanxiang and whispered to her, “You’re aware that the members of Team Zenith won’t be participating in battle with you, right?”

Zhang Hanxiang nodded. “I understand. You told me beforehand.”

“If the aliens ask what they’re doing, tell them that they’re on a secret mission.”

Zhang Hanxiang nodded.

The aliens had chosen to ally with the draconian world because they thought the draconian world’s forces would be strong and dependable. However, none of Zhang Lie, the warlords, or the members of Team Zenith would be present on the battlefield with them. If the aliens were aware of this, it would be far more difficult for Zhang Hanxiang and Hong Xi to command them all.

Neither woman had displayed their full strength to the aliens, and it would be difficult to get them to succumb to their command.

On the other hand, the excuse that Team Zenith was taking part in a secret mission was one that could be repeatedly used for quite some time before the aliens started to doubt Zhang Hanxiang and Hong Xi. As long as they showcased their strength in battle by then, the aliens would naturally accept their command.

“I’ll present you and Hong Xi with a specialized mount.” Zhang Lie beckoned the disaster-grade multicolored dragon over.

Zhang Hanxiang gulped. “Brother, isn’t this your mount?”

“I’ll lend it to you for the time being. Remember to return it.”

After consuming a portion of world’s energy, the disaster-grade dragon was barely weaker than Zhang Hanxiang herself, and it would be able to protect them both.

“Thank you, Brother!”

It would take some time for the aliens to reach the Zongming world. Before then, Zhang Lie and Gold Comet headed somewhere else—the scaleman world.

Gold Comet’s speed meant that they reached the scaleman world in the blink of an eye.

There were large numbers of alien fighters gathered around the scaleman capital, suggesting that they too were preparing to respond to the superior worlds’ summons.

There were quite a number of alien troops present. It was clear that the scaleman world had done what the draconian world did. It had gathered together the forces of those nearby worlds that had been invaded by the black spirits to form a coalition.

The king of the scaleman world stood on stage as he orated, “All of our worlds have been destroyed or invaded by the black spirits. Even after my master destroyed the black spirits, the mastermind behind this invasion remains—the death spirits.”

The alien fighters’ eyes shone with vengeance. The black spirits had destroyed their homeworlds and converted their friends and family into monsters.

The scaleman king explained that the black spirits had merely been a tool of the death spirits, who had yet to suffer any consequences for their actions.

“We won’t allow the death spirits to do as they please. Those who destroyed our homeland and killed our people shall die for their actions!”

The fighters who had had no place to vent their hatred and anger after the invasion gathered in droves. As the nearby worlds learned of this information, huge swathes of warriors joined the scaleman coalition. Either the death spirits would be killed to the last, or they would be.

Suddenly, the king looked up at the sky, having sensed Zhang Lie’s arrival.

Zhang Lie made no motion to hide his presence. He teleported over to the scaleman king’s side, who asked him excitedly, “Master, are you here to fight with me?”

Zhang Lie would be superior to ten million ordinary fighters.

Zhang Lie shook his head. “I’m here to inform you that the war against the death spirits is on the horizon.”

“Right now?” the scaleman king explained, shocked.

“No, not yet. Once the superior worlds enter a heated confrontation with the death spirits, once they’re unable to extricate themselves—that’s when you have to evolve your world. I won’t be able to inform you of the best timing, since I’ll be on the battlefield myself, but don’t worry. With the right timing, they’ll be far too busy to prevent your world’s evolution.”

The scaleman king nodded. “I’ll seize this opportunity. Thank you, Master.”

“You must. If you miss this opportunity, your world will never be able to evolve.”

Before his meeting with Zhang Lie, the scaleman king only had a vague understanding of a superior world and what it entailed, but after the summons, he desperately sought to evolve his world.

Why did all the worlds have to respond to the superior worlds’ summons? Because the superior worlds were the strongest of all. The scaleman king had never thought his world inferior to any other, but after meeting an envoy from a superior world, he realized that there were existences above even him.

Those who became kings of the realm wanted to rule, not to be ruled over.

They were able to convey their authority at least within their worlds—but now that the scaleman king had identified an authority that lay above his, he couldn’t stand it. He immediately thought about what Zhang Lie had brought up once, evolving his world to a superior one.

“I have my own objectives to accomplish, so I’ll be leaving now.”

Gold Comet morphed into a dazzling beam of golden light, which shot out into the horizon. In the blink of an eye, they had returned to the Zongming world.

Many aliens had already gathered in the Zongming world. Zhang Lie headed up the mountain to the palace at its peak, where he found Li Zongming.

“It looks like you’ve mustered up most of the forces already.”

Li Zongming shrugged. “I also terrorized quite a few recalcitrant worlds.”

“I heard you destroyed half a world.”

There was no choice, after all; if he failed to amass enough forces quickly, the other superior worlds would surely try to cast blame upon him.

Li Zongming said, “It’s been a few days since Qianlin last saw you. Will you talk to her now?”

“I’m planning on doing so.”

Zhang Lie zipped off toward Li Qianlin’s rooms. He spread his arms wide and asked, “It’s been a few years. Won’t you give me a hug?”

Li Qianlin grumbled, “What do you mean, a few years? It’s been just a few days!”

“A day without you is like a year lost to me.”

Li Qianlin rolled her eyes. “Is the war about to start?”

“Almost. Once the stragglers arrive, we’ll set off.”

Li Qianlin began, “This war—”
