Chapter 1124 To War (9)
As soon as the shells made contact with the Beast Race troops, there were black holes that appeared.
First there were the distortions in space before the black holes formed.
But once they formed, the Beast Race troops realized their mistakes.
For some of the leaders, the ones that led the charge themselves, this error was fatal.
They were on the front lines when these shells hit and they had taken the brunt of the attack. They had black holes appear right on their bodies, marking them for death as they couldn't escape the grasps of these black holes.
They could only watch as the black holes attached to their bodies and swallowed them bit by bit.
In their last moments, all they felt was regret over not running sooner.
The ones that were lucky enough to avoid this attack from Lin Fan's ship…wasted no time in running away.
They knew now that they couldn't face the strange attacks of this ship.
Not to mention, the strange black hole attacks that these humans used wasn't just a one time thing. This was something that they could use again and again against them, so they stood no chance at all.
Their instinctive fear took over and they didn't hesitate at all to run.
Seeing them run like this, Lin Fan finally gave the order to his subordinates to chase after them.
They were surprised to receive this order, but they weren't against it.
After all, they had been waiting for the chance to fight the Beast Race and now that it was here, they weren't about to let it slip through their fingers.
In truth, Lin Fan was just using them to clean up the battlefield.
That was because the Beast Race troops had been partially right about the special shells that his ship had fired. These shells were limited, though he did have more than a single shot.
They had used over half of the shells that they had developed in the past two days on this fight, but Lin Fan felt that it was worth it.
The situation had developed just like he had hoped and even now, he was letting these Beast Race troops go on purpose.
They would spread the news of the new weapon that he was bringing which would make it easier for him to move through this space in between the borders.
The Beast Race would be lacking information on what he had done and they didn't know if he could use this weapon again. In this situation, they wouldn't do anything crazy such as ambushing him again.
So this would allow Lin Fan's ship to safely reach the Lu Astral Empire's territory.
But after that…there would be a great battle.
The main forces of the Beast Race were there, so there would be far more demon beasts than the force that had ambushed them.
There was no way that they would be able to take them all down with the weapons on the ship, so they would have to find the forces of the Lu Astral Empire first.
The trip itself was very quiet because of Lin Fan's plan.
Because of the trick that he had played, there were no ambushes that had been laid for them.
Though there were scouts that had been keeping track of their location the entire time.
Lin Fan would send his subordinates out to take care of them, but it was more to relax them than to get rid of the Beast Race troops. If there was one thing that the Beast Race didn't lack, that was numbers.
The Beast Race had much greater numbers than any other races because of their strong reproduction capacities. So no matter how many scouts they took out, it was impossible for them to kill them all.
He only sent them out because he could see how tense they were.
They had been prepared for action, but since Lin Fan's trick caused the Beast Race to leave them alone, this tension was building up inside of them.
It was best if he allowed them to fight a few beasts to let that tension out.
When they arrived at the border of the Lu Astral Empire, that was when things finally changed.
There was a large group of Beast Race troops waiting for them.
It was a group that was ten times bigger than the one that had ambushed them.
This time, they were completely surrounded and outnumbered.
It was just too bad that they gave Lin Fan and his men too much time to prepare.
Lin Fan hadn't been idle during the three days that he had been traveling.
He had been making more of the shells that he had used against the Beast Race when he had been ambushed.
This time, they were much more familiar with the process and it was easier for them to make these shells.
Back in the Lin Astral Empire's capital, most of the time had actually been spent on developing these shells and there had only been a bit of time left for creating shells.
Now that they had spent all of their time creating these shells, their stock had exploded.
Lin Fan had loaded up his ship with the materials for these shells, so they had no problem producing without stopping.
They had more than enough shells to deal with all of the demon beasts around them.
Without hesitation, the shells started firing out at the waves of demon beasts that surrounded them.
The demon beasts still charged without hesitation since they had already figured that this was the case. After hearing about Lin Fan's special weapon, they had come with the plan to sacrifice numbers to whittle down the stock of this special weapon.
The ones that were charging were only the weakest ones among the Beast Race troops.
But as time passed and they realized that the shells weren't stopping, the Beast Race commanders realized that they had made a mistake…
So they had no choice but to call a special person to come and help them.
When this person appeared, they couldn't help looking at the black holes that filled the space in front of them in shock. After a long period of silence, that person said, "These are…gravity bombs? How are they using gravity bombs?"
This person was naturally one of the Outer Experts that had been working with the Beast Race. They were even wearing the same battle suit as the other Outers that Lin Fan had encountered before.
As for the gravity bombs that he mentioned, these were the shells that Lin Fan used.
The other law that he had stolen from the Outers was the gravity law from those missiles.
He had found that this gravity law was very similar to gravity from earth, so he had used his bit of science knowledge and his understanding of this gravity law to create a black hole generator.
These black hole generators were put into the shells that they had and shot out at the enemies, which created the black holes that swallowed them up. At the same time, there were spatial laws at the tip of these shells that shattered through the spatial law barriers the Beast Race troops used.
These were laws from another universe, so the Beast Race also couldn't figure out how to break through these black holes.
That was why they were suffering so much against these shells.
The Outer Expert quickly went to the front of the lines and raised his hand to shoot out two missiles. These missiles flew into two black holes that were in front of him before causing them to collapse.
This made the Outer Expert knit his brows even more since this just confirmed that this was indeed the gravity law from his universe if he was able to cancel it like this.
Could it be that someone had betrayed their universe and was working with the people of this universe?
As soon as this thought passed through his mind, this Outer Expert wanted to leave.
He had to report this back to his superiors since this was an important issue, but he couldn't leave…
That was because Lin Fan had already found him.
As soon as he saw this Outer Expert appear on the field, Lin Fan had come out of the ship.
With a wave of his hand, there were spatial distortions that appeared around the Outer Expert.
When they disappeared, the Outer Expert found that he was in front of Lin Fan.
After being stunned for a second, the Outer Expert immediately raised his hands to shoot missiles at Lin Fan.
But Lin Fan just simply waved his hand and nothing happened.
When the Outer Expert looked down, he saw that a few wires in his suit had been cut which caused the missile launchers on his arms to fail.
Seeing this, the Outer Expert knew that he stood no chance against Lin Fan, so he immediately turned to leave.
Unfortunately, Lin Fan didn't give him that chance.
With a simple wave of his hand, the Outer Expert's eyes rolled back in their sockets and he fainted. Then with another simple wave of his hand, the Outer Expert disappeared.
Lin Fan didn't waste any time and just waved his hand at the ship which led to another barrage of shells shooting at the Beast Race.
When the Beast Race troops saw this, they immediately started to run.
Even the Outer Expert had been taken care of, so there was no chance that they would be able to do anything.
But Lin Fan didn't show the same mercy as before.
With a wave of his hand, there was a spatial law barrier that appeared that trapped all of the Beast Race troops.
