Chapter 1016 1016: Taking Command

Lucifer woke up from his slumber, possessing a new energy core in his heart. However he remained oblivious to what this core was truly capable of. Until now, he had been able to use all his cores freely, and even when he stole other people's cores, he was still able to grasp them.

With those abilities, he was able to learn how to use them as if they were a part of his body, but with this new ability, he found himself struggling. He couldn't understand this core. Instead of feeling like it was a part of his body, he felt that it was something external.

It was akin to a weapon that he could hold but not freely wield, as if the energy core had a mind of its own, resisting Lucifer's attempts to understand and harness its power.

He didn't know what it was or how he received it, but one thing was clear as day. This thing was special in its own way. While his other abilities could be restricted by anti-magic stone, this thing couldn't.

With his mind clouded with multiple thoughts, he shifted his attention to the more serious matter at hand. He was still in the midst of the entire Star Alliance.

Fortunately, the Spatial Restriction was gone at the moment, which granted him a great opportunity.

Although the Star Alliance could activate the Spatial Restriction once again, he didn't want to give them an opportunity.

His main target was the commanding Ship. Although it wasn't going to harm the Star Alliance much, but before leaving, he wanted to deal them significant damage.

As the Commanding Ship was the fastest, it was the more dangerous as well. In the moment, he decided to make a mess of that thing.

His eyes changed their color. Unlike before, he now felt like he was brimming with energy. All his other cores felt stronger as well. He became faster. Or rather, the time around him slowed down as he used the Element of Time that he had snatched from earth.

The spatial field surrounded him, making him appear right at the entrance of the Commanding Ship. Unfortunately, even for him it was impossible to teleport inside directly.

His fist tightened, as he used the Strengthening Core. A terrifying physical strength coursed through his body. His fists slammed against the reinforced door of the Commanding Ship.

The people in the Commanding Ship felt the entire ship tremble as a loud noise resounded. Even the ones outside the ship heard it.

The Commanding General was trying to find the person who had attacked them when he heard the voices of the people in the commanding ship through his communication device.

He was stunned, but as he looked in the direction where Lucifer's lifeless body was previously floating, he saw nothing there.

"Arghh!" He roared in anger, thinking that Lucifer had fooled him. "That bastard attacked himself to confuse me! I'll kill him!"

He thought that the Lightning that fell on Lucifer was according to his own will, all to distract him. And it worked as well. The old man felt furious.

"Bring me in!" He commanded the Ship Command to bring him in.

"We can't! He destroyed the system responsible!" A voice came from the device in the old man's ears. Behind the voice, he could also hear multiple explosive sounds, along with sounds of shooting.

The old man clenched his fist, his expressions distorting in anger. He was far away from the Ship. The other Generals were even farther.

"That cunning bastard!" He roared as he flew toward the Commanding Ship with all his speed. Although it was only a few seconds worth of flight for him, but those few seconds felt like an eternity in this moment since he wasn't sure how much more harm Lucifer could cause.

He couldn't even ask them to turn on the Anti Magic Field since it could also affect his own men inside the Command Ship.

Moreover, he wasn't even certain how Lucifer survived that attack. Was he immune to Anti Magic Crystals? If that was the case then turning on the Anti Magic inside the Ship was worse for them than it was for Lucifer as it could make his men sitting ducks.

It was the Commanding Ship and many important people of the Star Alliance were inside. He couldn't afford to lose them.

"Turn on the Spatial Block right now!" He issued the command. Unfortunately, there was no response this time. Only a static noise could be heard in response. The communication device inside the ship was also broken.

The old man felt like roaring at the top of his lungs. Since the Mother Ship was the core, with the destruction of the communication network, the communication with all other Ships had also broken at this moment.

The old man increased his speed, giving it his all.

After a short time, he finally reached the Commanding Ship with only twenty meters of distance left. His eyes were blazing in anger as he wanted to crush Lucifer. But as he stepped inside the ship, he was greeted with an unexpected sight.

A few other Generals also arrived shortly after him.

There was blood everywhere. All the corridors were stained in blood. On his way to the Command Room, he was greeted by many dead bodies. No one was spared. And many were left as nothing more than mangled pieces of flesh, impossible to determine who the body belonged to.

As he stepped inside the Command Room, he saw an even more gruesome sight. Not a single life was spared. With this, it was confirmed that everyone on the ship was killed.

Unfortunately, Lucifer was nowhere to be found, leaving behind only chaos and confusion.

Without the Spatial Restriction, Lucifer was like a shark in the deep sea. He wasn't sure if Lucifer had escaped from this world now, but if he hadn't, then it was even more dangerous.

He understood that the first thing he had to do was to restrict the space again. Only then could they decide what to do next.

Just as the Commanding General reached closer to the control screen, his expressions froze.
