Chapter 762: Chapter 762
Seeing the battlefield stabilized, the two sisters mostly held back their efforts. After all, such battles didn’t benefit them; killing excessively would only waste their energy. It was better to allow these people to feel gratified for a while.
Having packed up his stuff, Du You left with the sisters. Now he had confirmed that the enemy’s warship truly had no energy and wouldn’t attack him, otherwise, he wouldn’t have ventured out randomly.
Du You didn’t use himself as a lab rat; he ventured out because he noticed that the Warship Commander had come out, and since he was not attacked, Du You assuredly wouldn’t be either. He came before the warship and saw the Demon Extermination Spirit commence its attack on the warship’s main gates.
"This warship is quite peculiar, it’s actually constructed of flesh and blood," Du You found out at close range that the surface of this warship wasn’t metallic but comprised of flesh. The places torn open from his magic clearly revealed the flesh still wriggling. Many parts of it seemed to want to regenerate and grow back.
Regrettably, due to the severe damage, recovery was seemingly impossible.
"This is the research direction of the Blood-colored Empire, biotechnology. The warship isn’t entirely composed of flesh, but rather a combination of flesh and machinery. The use of a flesh structure replaces some mechanical technical standards which weren’t previously achievable, thus creating such a ship. Most of the weapons of the Blood-colored Empire are constructed in this manner."
Du You observed the broken opening and indeed there was plenty of metal material inside.
"Using flesh as the body and metal as the bone, it’s innovative indeed. It’s a wonder they thought of such a thing."
Du You realized that this metallic warship was like a specifically modified organism. However, the difference was that Cyborgs and the modified organisms replaced their bones with metals and added special structures in their bodies.
But this thing utilized metal as a framework and grew a layer of flesh outside with the help of unique biotechnology.
"Indeed, it is innovative. Many special materials are in high demand and mass-produced without consuming resources. Although their strength might be a little weaker, there are more in quantity. This is the reason they’ve managed to develop even with somewhat scant resources."
Originally, these traitors were exiled. No one could have anticipated that they would find a way around, combining biotechnology to create such technology in originally barren star fields.
As a result, due to their vast numbers and low resource consumption, they emerged as rivals of the Star Ring Alliance, becoming its biggest enemy. They could easily gain the upper hand on localized battlegrounds.
"Their red energy is also generated with the help of this special structure, right?"
"Correct, I’ve seen information that traces this unique energy to a certain Starry Sky Beast. After being modified, it turned into this form. As this energy only consumes biological energy, it can sustain itself by forming specific organs, and it’s very cheap. This serves as their primary attack method."
Without a doubt, not only is it cost-effective, but it can also suppress various forms of mechanical and energy weapons. If it was up to him, Du You would absolutely choose this method. At this moment, the final gate was broken open.
"Just these few people?" Du You examined the few dejected individuals who came out and furrowed his brows.
"Even having a few people is a lot; all of them seem to be natural humans, so our merit this time is huge."
The commander seemed gleeful. "As this is your first time on the battlefield, you might not know. A significant number of those fighting on the battlefield are biochemical humans and robots. Unless one possesses unique abilities, ordinary humans won’t freely enter the battlefield as a form of population protection. Only you Superpower Men, who can’t be replicated, need to personally go."
Du You narrowed his eyes slightly, finally understanding. Although the scale of interstellar wars might seem vast, people directly involved were actually not that many, primarily consuming resources instead.
On Earth, where he came from, Biochemical Humans and robots existed too, designed to serve as tools.
You don’t have to speak about human rights and the like, because during their creation, Biochemical Humans and robots were never intended to develop a real self-consciousness. They only possessed a mechanical form of logic and were used merely as tools.
That being said, finding a dozen people aboard a warship was quite a lot. For a warship of this sort, one or two natural humans could command it. During a large-scale war, natural humans wouldn’t go to battle; Biochemical Humans and smart computers were enough.
While he was still talking, the commander had already instructed his men to tie up these individuals. Capturing several natural humans, they were all set to become famous. Du You didn’t object; his contribution this time was indeed the greatest.
However, just as they had finished apprehending these individuals, out of nowhere, several beams of red light came swooping from the distance. Two unlucky students were instantly hit by the red light, and in the next instant, they dissolved into nothingness.
"It’s an enemy attack, be on guard." Facing a sudden attack, everyone immediately sought cover. Du You was no exception, darting behind a massive rock for protection and looking towards the direction of the attack.
At that moment, Du You noticed several monstrous six-legged creatures approaching from a distance. Their seemingly cumbersome bodies moved quite swiftly. When the muscles on one such creature’s body relaxed, a hole opened on its side.
Many individuals walked out of it, brandishing bizarre weapons that resembled living beings. The red beam seemed to have been launched from within. Observing the decay on the ground caused by it, Du You realized that this energy construct was probably similar to the main gun of the warship. Such a degree of advancement in biotechnology was truly astonishing.
"Damn it, their reinforcements arrived first. Du You, it appears like we’ll be relying on you this time."
The commander spoke to Du You with a self-reproaching look. It was initially his responsibility to protect the students, yet the tables had turned. For a responsible commander, this was indeed a major loss of face.
Du You nodded subtly, signaling to Lin Yucha and Lin Yushi. Then, he unleashed a Destruction Flames into the sky. Simultaneously, Lin Yucha shot an arrow into the air.
The arrow made a shrieking noise, flying through the sky like a bird before plummeting. Its horrifying speed was aimed straight at a giant creature, a transporter with hardly any combat power. The Brave Eagle’s Arrow easily pierced through the creature’s skull, killing it instantly as the poison pervaded its body. For origınal chapters go to 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍
The creature was killed before it even opened its hatch. The soldiers inside who didn’t come out in time were all stuck inside, ultimately perishing due to the spreading poison.
