Chapter 273 - Chapter 673

 The area that had been ravaged by the space turbulence finally regained its calm.

As the universe repaired itself, the space in the entire area gradually stabilized.

After ten minutes of continuous space attacks, even Haig couldn't endure it. Fortunately, the intensity of the attacks didn't exceed the upper limit of his defense. That was why he could rely on the continuous energy supply to make his defensive barrier last for a while.

However, although the attacks did not break through the defense barrier and cause any damage to Haig, it did consume a lot of his energy as Lin Kexin had expected.

Even though he was a tier-9 creature, the energy stored in his body was not unlimited. Once it was consumed, he needed to recover it. It was like a battleship in a technological civilization. You could continue to maintain the shield, but if the energy in the battleship ran out, the shield would not be able to hold on. It was the same principle.

Compared to Haig, Douglas was in a much worse state.

Although its sensing ability was very strong and could sense the formation of spatial cracks or regional spatial compression in advance and avoid them immediately, in the face of the continuous irregular spatial damage caused by the Zero Point Bomb, there would still be times when it couldn't dodge in time.

Now, its three missing legs and the countless wounds all over its body were the best examples.

It would take at least a month for him to fully recover.

Of course, Douglas was a tier-7 leader-level creature. Of course, there were beings in a worse state than him. They were Haig's personal guards.

There were not many of them to begin with. After this wave of attacks, only nine of them survived.

Furthermore, they only survived because each of them was in a state 10 times worse than Douglas'. It was not an exaggeration at all.

They were all the seeds of tier-7 leader-level creatures. Haig's heart was bleeding.

"Douglas, nothing must happen to you and the remaining personal guards. Take them and retreat first!"

Douglas's role in Purgatory Legio I was more important than Ogre's role in Purgatory Legio II. Nothing must happen to him. Otherwise, Purgatory Legio I would lose its eyes.

As for the remaining nine guards, they couldn't stay here any longer. After all, they were lucky enough to survive the first wave of attacks. If the humans were to attack again, Haig believed that they wouldn't be so lucky anymore.

Most importantly, these were the seeds of leader tier lifeforms. As long as there was enough time, they would become nine individual leaders of the 7th step. He couldn't let all of them die here.

Therefore, the best choice was for all of them to leave. After all, they wouldn't be of much use if they continued to stay here.

"Understood, Sir Haig!"

Douglas didn't act like he was going to die to show his loyalty. He understood that he couldn't do anything here. He would only be Haig's burden.

Although he had suffered quite a few injuries, his Source Energy was not damaged. Opening a spatial passage was not a problem.

Including Douglas himself, there were only a total of 10 Purgatory creatures. It didn't take much time for them to retreat. Within half a minute after the teleportation passage was opened, all of them had entered.

"Humans, don't think that this is the end. Since you can't kill me, you will be killed by me sooner or later!"

"All leaders, with the human fleet as the center, try to build a teleportation passage. Find the nearest coordinates to build a passage!"

Looking at Douglas and the remaining guards leaving, Haig was filled with anger. He immediately gave the order to the dozens of leader tier lifeforms at the frontline.

You made it impossible for me to build a passage at your location. I don't believe that you can interfere with the entire star field!

This was Haig's idea. Since I can't go to your location directly, I will find the nearest location I can reach. Once I get into my attack range, none of you will be able to escape.

Overall, his idea was correct. The range of the human's space interference was not that large.

However, Lin Kexin wouldn't give Haig this chance.

While Haig was arranging his subordinates to look for a point of attack, a blue vortex-shaped hyperspace channel opened once again at a distance of 5AU from them.

Without Douglas's presence, Haig couldn't sense it immediately.

However, even if he could sense it, without Douglas's help, Haig couldn't accurately lock onto the Zero Point Bomb Carrier and launch a long-range attack.

It had to be said that Lin Kexin was lucky. If Douglas hadn't left, with Douglas's help, Haig could have destroyed the Zero Point Bomb Carrier before it detonated.

Of course, there were no ifs in this world. When Haig finally felt the threat, it was already too late.

Not long ago, the spatial turbulence that had finally stopped broke out again. In the huge area, a large number of spatial cracks, regional spatial compression, and other phenomena continued to descend in the affected area.

Haig wasn't as sensitive as Douglas. He couldn't rely on foresight to avoid most of the space disasters. He could only rely on his strong defense to resist.

Soon, ten minutes had passed. Since Haig was the only one left in this area, the result of this wave of Zero Point Bomb attack was shamefully zero.

Haig, who was obviously tired, removed the defensive barrier around him.

The two rounds of attacks didn't cause any real damage to him. However, they had consumed almost twenty percent of his energy.

It should be known that the energy of a rank 9 creature was enormous. Consuming twenty percent of his energy was already terrifying.

At this moment, Haig's eyes were uncertain.

After two rounds of attacks, Haig had basically figured out the power of this attack.

When he could maintain his defensive barrier, it couldn't cause any real damage to him. However, it would consume a lot of his energy.

If he couldn't maintain his defensive barrier and could only rely on his physical body to withstand the attack, it might not be enough to kill him, but it would undoubtedly injure him. Moreover, if the attack continued, it might even cause him some very troublesome injuries, which would greatly affect his combat strength.

I only hope that you can't use this attack continuously!

However, while Haig was having such thoughts, several AUs away from him...

Another hyperspace window opened!
