Chapter 135 Blood Skull Star Pirates! Metal Man Civilization? Bio-Strong Armor! (Subscribe)
Although the Shan Gen behemoths are the royal bloodline of the star beast civilization and are blessed with natural talents, their growth rate is very slow. It takes a long time from infancy to growth and then to maturity.

If you want to shorten the growth cycle, you have to rely on external forces.

Stellar energy crystals are extremely valuable treasures to them. One piece of stellar energy crystal may be able to greatly shorten the growth cycle of a growing star beast and grow to maturity as quickly as possible. That would be equivalent to a star-level powerhouse!

However, there are only a few stars in a million that can produce stellar energy crystals. Even if there are, they have already been firmly controlled by the three advanced civilizations in the Milky Way. With their current situation, the Shan Gen behemoth clan is unable to compete with them.

Now Chu Xu proposed to allocate a piece of stellar energy crystal every year. This is very tempting and enough to allow them to cultivate at least one stellar-level powerhouse every year!
Naturally, the leader of the Shan Gen monster would not refuse this condition.

However, it is also very clear that there is no free lunch in the world. Since the other party has offered such generous conditions, it must require equivalent conditions in exchange.

"What do you need us to do?"

The leader of the Shan Gen monster asked.

"It's simple. Since you live in the solar system, you are a part of it. I hope you can fight alongside us when foreign enemies invade."

Chu Xu said concisely.

"...Okay, I can promise you."

After pondering for a while, the leader of the Shan Gen monster finally gave his answer.

Their group originally only regarded the Oort Cloud as a temporary shelter, and has been in a wandering state, searching for a suitable shelter in the vast universe.

Now that Chu Xu has extended an olive branch to it and offered such generous conditions, it might as well agree to it.

As for protecting their homes, it is their duty, and they will not allow any enemy to endanger the safety of their tribe, especially their young children.

A verbal promise alone would naturally not be very effective, so Chu Xu and the leader of the Shangen beast each signed a spiritual contract with their mental power. Once either party violates the contract, they will suffer a strong mental backlash. This can be regarded as a common form of equal contract between civilized creatures in the universe.

Next, Chu Xu led the Shan Gen giant beast clan back to the solar system. On the way, he learned that the name of the Shan Gen giant beast leader was Bo Gang, a female Shan Gen giant beast. It is said that this name was passed down from generation to generation by each leader.

In the past, among the eight royal families of the Starry Sky Giant Beast Civilization, the Shan Gen Giant Beast Clan could rank second. It had ultimate cosmic-level powerhouses in charge, and the number of beasts in the clan numbered in the hundreds of millions. There was no doubt that its power was formidable. But who could have imagined that it would end up in such a situation now?
"Then do you know where the other seven star beast royal families are now?"

Chu Xu asked.

"I don't know, but according to my memory, the Fire Beast Clan also fled to the Milky Way with our tribe, but they disappeared afterwards."

Bo Gang explained.

As they traveled through the space, passing by Pluto in the Kuiper Belt, the giant mountain beasts such as Bo Gang were stunned.

In the space near Pluto, a circle of metal belt composed of the wreckage of numerous space battleships has suddenly formed, which is a spectacular sight.

Bo Gang and his companions also had impressions of these space battleships. They recognized that they were the space fleets belonging to the humans of Blue Star. Many years ago, they had encountered a reconnaissance formation in the Oort Nebula!
For many years, the Blue Star Human Federation has been capturing various low-level civilized creatures and performing biochemical transformation on them for the so-called "biological warfare weapons plan."

However, the most favored choice of humans on Blue Star is still the giant beasts of the sky.

These star beasts are natural biological warfare weapons in themselves. They don't even need biochemical transformation. They only need brainwashing and mental control and can be directly sent into the battlefield, which can achieve twice the result with half the effort.

When these mountain-gen behemoths first fled to the Milky Way, they were hunted down and captured by the Blue Star Human Federation. Many young and growing beasts of the tribe fell into the hands of the Blue Star humans, and their lives or deaths were unknown.

"Just here."

Bo Gang spoke and decided to lead the mountain-gen giant beast tribe to live on Pluto.

The Apollo energy cannon left by Chu Xu still serves as a small sun, continuously bringing light and heat to Pluto, greatly improving its surface environment.

Moreover, Pluto is located in the Kuiper Belt, which contains many large and small celestial bodies, all of which are food for the mountain monsters.

The most important thing is the debris of space battleships orbiting Pluto, which are rare delicacies and enough for them to eat for a long time.

Chu Xu naturally had no objection to this. Pluto was equivalent to the gateway to the inner solar system. It was naturally better to have the mountain beasts guarding it.

As for the space junk, they can also help clean it up, which is killing two birds with one stone.

After settling the Shan Gen behemoths, Chu Xu also contacted the Dragon Mother on Earth, informed her of the situation, and asked her to lead the Royal Dragon Riders to connect with the Shan Gen behemoths, and distribute the stellar energy crystals stored on Earth to them annually.

After all this was arranged, Chu Xu and his party left with peace of mind and continued their long journey across the Milky Way.

……

Oort Cloud.

In the boundless universe, nebulae unfold like a painting, gorgeous and mysterious, dancing in the deep space, with light and shadow interweaving and shapes changing unpredictably.

A diamond-shaped spaceship with a silvery-white metallic luster suddenly broke into the comet-filled nebula without slowing down at all. It only opened a layer of energy shield and rushed all the way.

A large number of comets hit the energy shield, smashing it into pieces and consuming a large amount of energy. Even so, the diamond-shaped spacecraft did not dare to stop for a moment and continued to sail at high speed.

It doesn't look like it's sailing normally, but rather it's running away in a panic.

This is indeed the case. Not far behind this diamond-shaped spaceship, there are three huge black space battleships chasing closely. They are of the same model as the planetary space battleships of the Blue Star Human Federation, but they have obviously undergone alternative modifications!
The ferocious blood-red skull painted on their hulls indicates the origin of these three black space battleships, which are from a notorious interstellar pirate organization in the Milky Way - the Bloody Skull Pirates.

The main members of the Blood Skull Pirates are all from the Blue Star Human Federation, and many of them are from the Federation Space Force. They stole the design drawings of the Federation Space Force's space battleships and modified them, even the Star-class Type I Star Destroyer was no exception.

The Blood Skull Star Pirates have been roaming around the border star systems of the Blue Star Human Federation for many years, usually relying on sneak attacks and robbing cargo from passing interstellar ships to survive. Their targets are not limited to Blue Star humans, but also other civilizations. This time, their target is the Metal Man civilization from the Yin Luo Star System.

The Metal Man Civilization, a member of the Galactic Civilization Alliance, is a mechanical and technological civilization with a civilization rating of 1.5, which is in the middle of the alliance. However, their development momentum is very rapid, and they are especially famous in the Milky Way for their iconic technological invention - biologically reinforced armor.

Biological reproductive armor is a universal biological weapon suitable for any living thing. It is derived from units composed of reproductive cells and control metals, and can be tailored to the characteristics of the wearer to perform functional amplification and biological strengthening.

The reproductive cells have unlimited proliferation capabilities, similar to cancer cells and phagocytes, and can organically combine with other organisms through reproduction. The control metal in the center is the core of the entire reproductive armor system, controlling the status of the reproductive cells through internal data records.

The entire biological colonization armor system is actually a "living body" that can merge with other organisms. It is divided into satellite-level, planetary-level and even stellar-level armor according to its level.

Even an ordinary human who is powerless, equipped with a set of stellar-level biological armor, is enough to compete with a true stellar-level strongman.

Because of this, bio-enhanced armor has become extremely popular in the markets of major civilizations in the galaxy. Even a satellite-grade armor is sold at a sky-high price, not to mention higher-grade armor, which is often out of stock. After all, its manufacturing cost and cycle are extremely high and long.

This time, the Blood Skull Pirates learned insider intelligence in advance that a cargo fleet of the Metal Civilization set out from the Yinluo Galaxy, transporting a batch of planetary-level biological colonization armor.

Even though it was only planetary-level biologically reinforced armor, its combined value was no less than that of a stellar-class star destroyer.

This is a big deal that cannot be missed, so more than 20 planetary space battleships of the Blood Skull Pirates came out in full force, and even two hidden stellar-class star destroyers were also dispatched, ambushing on the route that the metal civilization must pass, and launching a surprise attack on the cargo ship fleet.

In the end, the escort fleet of the Metal Men's cargo ship team was completely wiped out, almost all the cargo ships were captured by the Blood Skull Pirates, most of the Metal Men were captured and kidnapped, and only one small cargo ship managed to escape in the chaos.

However, the Blood Skull Pirates, who always adhere to the principle of rooting out the problem, would not let this cargo ship go. So they immediately dispatched three planetary space battleships to pursue it.

"Humph, do you think you can get rid of us by escaping into a swarm of comets? You are simply courting death!"

Inside the leading space battleship, the Scorpion, the human pirates let out mocking laughter.

The three pirate space battleships followed slowly into the comet cluster of the Oort Cloud. There was no need to chase them relentlessly. It wouldn't be long before the cargo ship of the Metal Civilization would be scrapped.

By the way, while chasing this cargo ship, they actually entered this unexplored nebula.

The gases, cosmic dust and other materials formed in the nebula squeezed together, gathering huge mass, which in turn attracted more mass, eventually becoming large enough to form a star system.

Therefore, generally speaking, the discovery of a nebula means that there is likely a star system nearby!

I wonder if there are any undiscovered star systems near this nebula? If so, we can’t miss them at all costs!
There might be a planet with life among them. Once they find it, they will be rich!

However, the most urgent task is to capture the cargo ship of the Metal Civilization first. If the mission is not completed, we will definitely be killed by the boss when we return!

"Boom!"

As expected by these human pirates, the cargo ship that was desperately fleeing was completely scrapped. Not only was its energy shield broken, its hull armor was severely damaged, and its energy was almost exhausted. It had to dock and became a complete turtle in a jar.

The three pirate space battleships immediately accelerated and chased after the cargo ship.

At the same time, shrill alarms continued to sound inside the cargo ship:
"Alarm! Alarm! The remaining energy is less than 1%. The defense system has been terminated, the gravity system has stopped working, and the life support system is about to shut down... Please recharge immediately."

For the metal people on the ship, the shrill alarm sounded like a death knell, approaching step by step and making people despair.

"Everyone, pick up your weapons and prepare to fight those damn human pirates!"

As the captain, Eva stood up and conveyed the information to other metal men through the vibration of the magnetic field around her body.

The more violently the magnetic field vibrates, the more excited her emotions are.

Eva is a female metal man, but that does not stop her from being very brave. Her steel-wire-like hair is flying up in the air, and the silver-white metal that makes up her body is also flashing with cold light.

Then, she took out a Rubik's Cube-shaped object from her arms, and with a light press, the entire Rubik's Cube suit stretched out, forming a planetary-level biological strong armor that perfectly fits her body size and curves.

The entire piece of biological armor was automatically spliced ​​onto various parts of Eva's body, arming her almost to the teeth, allowing her to instantly transform from an ordinary metal man into a planetary-level powerhouse, exuding a powerful aura.

However, this piece of planetary-level biological armor is the only one left.

"Fight them!!"

The dozen or so metal men in the ship were also all furious. Even though they did not have biologically reinforced armor, they each picked up their weapons, ready to fight to the death.

They all witnessed their companions being slaughtered by those cruel human pirates. This hatred has already made them furious. Even if they die in the end, they will make those human pirates pay the price no matter what!
"They're coming!!"

All the metal men rushed out of the cargo ship through the hatch and faced the three huge pirate space battleships.

"You still want to resist? You are overestimating your own abilities!"

The human pirates were all disdainful when they saw this. Although a planetary-level biologically reinforced armor was strong, it could never defeat their three space battleships.

"fire!!"

Rumble——! !

The turbolaser cannons of the three pirate space battleships opened fire without hesitation, covering the entire cargo ship and the metal people in an instant, and the fierce light and blazing sea of ​​fire filled the brilliant nebula for a long time!
