Chapter 598: Sick of the Gods!

They knew they couldn't break through on their own. The only way was to rely on external help.

Fortunately, Su Chen had a plan.

"Are you sure that increasing our strength by five times will be enough to penetrate that Psychic shield?" Su Chen asked.

"Commander, this is the conclusion I arrived at after calculating, based on Ju Ling's attack power. It won't work with anyone else," Yun Ru replied.

"At what level do we need to reach?"

"Based on preliminary calculations, we would need at least Small Galaxy Fifth Order strength. But Ju Ling is only at Small Galaxy Second Order, missing the Third Order. How can we achieve that in time?" Yun Ru sounded helpless.

Even with their full power, they could only reach the strength of Small Galaxy Third Order, close to Fourth Tier, but achieving the Fifth Order seemed almost impossible.

And that was under the premise of their Cocoon Evolution, without factoring in evolution bonuses, which would make it even more challenging.

Just as Yun Ru wondered if the Commander would send them back, she heard him say, "Hold on a moment."

Meanwhile, at the Yan Yun Star's main base, a massive structure had appeared, appearing like an ordinary house, hardly noticeable to anyone. No one would suspect that it was actually a superweapon.

In the next moment, Ju Ling suddenly felt her power surge dramatically, jumping straight to Small Galaxy Fifth Order.

"Commander, what's happening?" Ju Ling was startled by her sudden power increase. She could feel that her strength had multiplied by more than five times!

At the Small Galaxy level, each stage marked a significant change, each one a hurdle.

"Just acquired a new superweapon and used it directly on you. Can you now break through Spectral Moth's Psychic shield?" the Commander asked.

Ju Ling's eyes hardened. "I won't disappoint you, Commander!"

In no time, a bullet carrying immense energy pierced through space and created a hole in Spectral Moth's Psychic shield.

Once there was a breach in the Psychic shield, it would become ineffective. Without the Psychic shield, Spectral Moth, already severely weakened, stood no chance against the super soldiers.

Several super soldiers dragged Spectral Moth back, and Ju Ling handed the recovered fragments to Su Chen.

"Hmm, it's indeed similar to the previous fragment. The last one was from the right hand, and this one is from the left foot. It seems there might be other fragments from different parts."

"Commander, I suggest we research this fragment. It might help Lady Leng Yuwei awaken faster," Yun Ru suggested.

The previous fragment couldn't be studied as it had fused with Leng Yuwei, but this new fragment could potentially make a difference.

"Agreed. Let's prioritize this research and set aside other matters for now."

Leng Yuwei's slumber had always been a concern for Su Chen. Finding a way to wake her up quickly was paramount, and this fragment appeared to be the only solution.

Yun Ru left with the fragment, her eyes filled with excitement as if she had found a treasure. The importance of the fragment momentarily made her forget about Spectral Moth's presence.

Su Chen's gaze turned to Spectral Moth lying on the ground. Even though its size had shrunk considerably, it still resembled the size of a Mobile Construction Vehicle, a green blob lying there like jelly.

"Spectral Moth, I know you can understand me, and I know you possess intelligence. If you want to survive, submit to me. This is your only choice!"

Facing a Cosmic Behemoth like Spectral Moth, Su Chen didn't use a method similar to what he did with Rabbit. Instead, he employed intimidation: submit or die!

Yo-yo!

Spectral Moth emitted strange cries, but the language it used was incomprehensible to everyone present, creating an awkward situation.

A lack of mutual understanding meant no communication could take place!

Spectral Moth seemed to realize this problem too. It extended one of its tentacles and began writing on the ground.

"You defeated me, and I'm willing to submit to you. However, can you return the thing you took earlier?" Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief. If Spectral Moth had refused to submit, he would have had to deal with Big White Rabbit's trouble, as the side quest still needed completion.

"You lost to me, including what you possessed, all of it is my spoils of war. However..." Su Chen understood the principle of offering a reward after a beating. He continued, "As long as you perform well, I'll ensure your strength keeps increasing, and your favorite food will be available in abundance from now on!"

"Really?" Spectral Moth was excited, causing its writing to become distorted.

"You should be able to tell I'm not a native of this planet. If I can conquer this planet, do you really think I'd skimp on providing you with enough food?" Spectral Moth eagerly shook its head. "Of course not. I'm more than willing to submit to you. May I know how I should address you?"

"Just call me Commander."

The moment Spectral Moth submitted, the System automatically marked it. From then on, it became a member of the Red Alert Base, eliminating any concerns of betrayal.

Now that Spectral Moth was on their side, Su Chen finally asked the question he most wanted to know: "Where did you find that fragment?"

The fragment was related to Leng Yuwei, and no matter what, Su Chen had to obtain these fragments, just in case.

"Commander, I found this fragment in a lifeless galaxy, far, far away from here," Spectral Moth honestly replied.

Spectral Moth had no concept of distance. It usually roamed through the universe, seeking planets with intelligent life to feast upon. After gorging itself, it would look for the next meal.

According to Spectral Moth, eating on the same planet for too long made it grow weary. It needed a change of taste.

Su Chen's mouth twitched. He was truly sick of it!

He finally understood why Spectral Moth left that lifebearing planet every thousand years or so. Clearly, it had grown tired of the taste.

After becoming part of their team, Su Chen found Spectral Moth to be surprisingly naive. Were all Cosmic Behemoths like this?

Spectral Moth had no idea about the exact location of the fragment when it first discovered it. Su Chen didn't push the matter, and obtaining the second fragment was already fortunate. At least it provided him with a research opportunity.

"Congratulations, Master, on completing the side quest. The rewards have been distributed," the System announced its presence.

The rewards for subduing a Cosmic Behemoth were quite generous. One billion Energy Points were no small sum, even though Su Chen already had over ten billion Energy Points. This amount still mattered to him.

The advanced Ghost Patterns fusion technology could finally be applied to the Super Soldiers, greatly enhancing the weaker ones and significantly boosting the strength of those who were already formidable.

The third reward was a chance to upgrade a Superweapon. Without hesitation, Su Chen used it on his favorite Weather Control Device.

However, what he didn't expect was that with this upgrade, the Weather Control Device underwent a change. (To be continued...)
