Chapter 1737 They Dare To Look Down On Him!!
The grand fleet began to prepare for battles. Hye spread his Soulers and Reapers in preparation for the need to hijack any spaceship near his flagship. At the same time, every other general started to spread their orders around, asking everyone to be ready for a fight.
The wait didn't last longer than four hours before Sara returned with the grave news.
[Hye, this is big! This is huge! It's not an attack between two forces, it's an outbreak of tons of burning shooting stars, heading across from one direction to another, sweeping and destroying anything in their path…]
She relayed the news, and didn't stop there, but also shared a video she just recorded with him. In there, Hye saw something that made him slowly stand up from his seat.
There weren't just a large number of them, but the entire universe seemed to be built from such shooting stars! There wasn't anything else but these shooting stars, burning and destroying anything in their path, sweeping even stars, ending up detonating them fiercely, adding more firepower to them.
Such a scene was way beyond his wildest imagination. "Damn! We are screwed!!" he felt the urge to move away, but where?
Everywhere was filled with these shooting stars. [Return, return fast] he gave the order before adding, [and try to find a way to escape this!]
[There is no way but by passing through them] she said something crazy, [I tried to move around, to find where these shooting stars end, and so far they seem endless!]
[We need to go below or above them] Hye already sent what Sara sent to him to everyone else. And the one who brought up such an idea was none other than old Gan, [They look like they came from a dying star or something. That means they expanded outwards from a single point, and gained more numbers and momentum by destroying stars and planets on their path]
Old Gan came on top of the research department folks, as he said he didn't trust anyone else to study the grand defensive formation but him.
[Why not try and find a way on the sides?] Hye asked, and old Gan explained the theory again, this time he recorded a video explaining things while drawing.
According to him, these shooting stars would spread in a conical shape. It'd grow to cover a scary stretch of space horizontally, but vertically they'd be thin no matter what. So it was safer to move either upward or downward, to evade the incoming impending death.
[Let's try this theory then] As no one gave other opinions but old Gan, Hye decided to follow his advice and plan, [Let's move up, all of us move up!]
As he gave such an order to everyone, he asked Sara to retreat in an oblique path, heading towards upwards. They met together after one hour, and then it was time to see if old Gan's theory would work or not.
"It worked! Hahaha! You have a genius man on your side, hahaha!" The pirate king couldn't help but laugh when he and others spotted the scary shooting stars moving way below them.
[At least we evaded danger] William sent this to everyone, [But we'll keep scanning the space upfront. Sara will lead the scout team]
[It's the Vanguard team!] Sara sent back, as if she didn't like being called the scout team leader, [And I'm leading an army, not just a small unit!]
[Just make sure you are safe out there] Hye didn't want to lose much of the fleet she led at such an early stage of developing their new home. Sara had a very bad record of losing most of her forces, one that was even close to the scary track of the jumper.
So far, the jumper didn't appear once again in front of Hye's radar. He was sure that troublesome girl was somewhere in the universe, making trouble and bringing bad luck to anyone she ended up with.
As the grand fleet flew on top of the shooting stars, everyone couldn't ignore such a majestic scene passing down below them. Hye wasn't an exception, as such a grand scene never appeared before in the apocalypse.
"Country pumpkins…" The pirate king muttered from the side when he noticed how everyone looked at such a scene with shock and surprise.
The universe was like an ocean, filled with lots of mysteries and unknown phenomena, ones that weren't any less impressive and grand than this one.
To pass this area, they took roughly an entire day. They didn't know why they took such a long time, but it felt like they took a detour to bypass these shooting stars.
During this, the team who brought the shield formation here kept speaking with the nymph lady, complaining about the delay in timing.
Hye told her to explain things to them, and they still didn't like such a response. Hye didn't know why, but it felt like these people were acting all arrogant, looking down on him.
[Change of plans, make arrangements for them to stay and build the formation] Hye suddenly sent to her after half a day of travel over the shooting star outbreak, [They are going to stay here for as long as it takes to lay down the formation]
[Are you sure? Didn't you reject such an idea before?] The nymph lady didn't get why he changed his mind. But he stressed over this point, making her negotiate again before ending up with him paying more bones to hire them.
This was his way to humiliate them for acting this arrogant and looking down at him. Hye never liked anyone dealing in such a way to him, and he intended to let them work like slaves, and he'd show himself to all, showing off as being their lord or something.
[How about us?] Old Gan sent this message the moment he received the news, [What shall we do then?]
[Just watch, learn, and keep asking questions]
