Intergalactic conquest with an AI

Chapter 166 Reinforcements.



The ocean below them became a battleground, each swing of Rex's sword sending tsunamis outward. The creature roared again, its jaws snapping dangerously close to Rex's body, but he was relentless.

For every head that lunged at him, he met it with a devastating swing of his blade, sending shockwaves that cut through the air like thunderclaps.

"IS THIS ALL YOU'VE GOT?!" Rex shouted, his voice echoing across the endless expanse of water. His rage fueled him, his every strike driven by the image of Ys's fragile body in his arms just moments ago.

He would protect her. He would destroy this monster. And he would not stop until it was nothing but ash.

The silver star and the eight-headed nightmare clashed in a battle that lit up the horizon, a war that could be seen from the heavens.

Amidst the chaos of the battle, as Rex clashed against the monstrous Tier 4 beast, the sky above began to change. The ocean shimmered faintly as an enormous shadow descended from the heavens, heralding the arrival of a force that had never been seen before in the vastness of space.

The fleet appeared without warning, their ships breaking through the atmosphere like blades piercing the clouds. Each vessel was a testament to engineering and purpose, their designs sleek yet menacing, their hulls emblazoned with unregistered symbols that no intergalactic system could recognize.

This wasn't a force tied to any known military alliance or galactic power. This was something entirely new.

At the heart of the fleet, an enormous flagship dominated the skies. It resembled a fighter carrier, its size and majesty eclipsing anything the galaxy had known. Inside its command bridge, four figures stood, each gazing at the battlefield below.

Their faces were lit by the glow of the screens showing the battle between Rex and the Tier 4 beast. Each of them reacted differently to the spectacle unfolding before them.

The first figure, a golden-haired woman of otherworldly beauty, stood still with her eyes closed. Though she couldn't see the fight with her eyes since it was an ability she lacked, her senses extended far beyond sight.

She felt the clashing power below, the sheer magnitude of the two titanic forces battling for dominance. The intensity of it made her tremble, her slender hands gripping the railing tightly.

Beside her, an older man with silver-streaked hair and a face carved by wisdom watched the battle on the largest screen. His expression was radiant, tears streaming down his face as if he were witnessing the creation of a masterpiece.

His voice broke the silence, filled with unrestrained joy.

"Beautiful! Magnificent! Glorious!" he exclaimed, spreading his arms wide as if to embrace the scene. "This is a moment worthy of history! It should be immortalized, not with some cheap holographic projection but with a real painting! A masterpiece to hang on the walls of eternity!"

He laughed loudly, overcome by the spectacle of raw power and will on display.

Further down the bridge, two younger women stood side by side, both with silver hair that shimmered faintly under the dim lighting of the command room. They looked almost identical, like mirrors of one another, but their reactions couldn't have been more different.

The first, the timid one, watched the fight with a pained expression. Her hands clenched tightly at her sides, and her lips quivered as she saw the blood on Rex's body. Every injury he suffered seemed to strike her heart as if it were her own.

The second, in contrast, was flushed, her cheeks glowing a soft pink as she stared unblinkingly at Rex. Her eyes glimmered with something akin to admiration or perhaps something deeper.

She shifted her weight, her legs moving restlessly as if trying to contain her emotions. Her focus never wavered from Rex, even as the beast's massive heads thrashed around him.

At the center of it all stood the commanding presence of Admiral Lilla. Her voice finally broke the tension in the room, clear and commanding, cutting through the hum of the ship's systems.

"All forces, prepare to engage!" she shouted, her tone brimming with authority and purpose. "The objective is the beast. Unleash the full might of the New Human Empire! Show the galaxy the strength of the angel's followers!"

"Understood, Admiral!" The officers on the bridge responded in unison, their voices sharp and resolute. The air was charged with energy, their morale surging. For many, this was the moment they had been waiting for, their first true test of strength, their first chance to unleash their fleet against an enemy of unimaginable power.

But more than that, this was their chance to fight alongside the symbol of their faith: Rex, the Bloody Angel. It was not just a battle. It was a declaration.

To some, they might have seemed like fanatics. But to the soldiers aboard the fleet, faith and conviction were all that mattered. Their belief in Rex, their symbol of defiance and hope, burned brighter than any sun.

This wasn't just about destroying the Tier 4 beast. This was about sending a message, a message to the galaxy.

For centuries, humanity had been cast aside, enslaved, and treated as disposable. Their time as victims was over. This fleet, this force, was the answer of a people who had been beaten down and yet refused to die. This was the rebirth of humanity's pride.

The New Human Empire had arrived. And this battle, this bloody, desperate battle was their call to the galaxy. A call to those who would stand with them. A warning to those who would oppose them.

The Bloody Angel's light would not falter. Today was not just the day humanity fought back. Today was the day the galaxy bore witness to the return of its once-proud humans.

And with that, the skies above the battlefield erupted in blinding light as the fleet prepared to unleash its full might. The ocean roared in anticipation, and the beast let out a furious cry as it turned to face the new threat.

<<Wing One Commander reporting for duty!>>

<<Wing Two Commander reporting for duty!>>

<<Wing Three Commander reporting for duty!>>

The calls echoed across the command bridge, one after another, crisp and confident. The entire fleet was ready. The battle had reached its boiling point, and there was no turning back. All they awaited now was the signal, the sacred command that would unleash the full might of the New Human Empire.

Admiral Lilla stood tall in the center of the bridge, her golden hair shimmering faintly in the glow of the monitors, her eyes still closed as she focused entirely on the energies below. Her voice rang out, sharp and commanding, cutting through the tension like a blade.

"Fire!" Lilla shouted with all her might

In an instant, the fleet roared to life. Four massive destroyers, designed to resemble the maritime warships of humanity's distant past, unleashed their payload.

These vessels, painstakingly rebuilt by Carlos and enhanced with Cleo's technology, had become fearsome war machines of the stars. Their turrets pivoted and fired with surgical precision, filling the air with the deafening symphony of war.

Explosive rounds tore through the skies, their trajectories arcing toward the Tier 4 beast, while streaks of brilliant laser beams followed closely behind. Every shot was aimed with deadly accuracy at the massive creature.

"Master! Incoming fire from above! Dodge!" Mini Cleo's voice rang out urgently in Rex's mind, cutting through the haze of his overwhelming rage.

"What?! From who?!" Rex shouted, his silver aura flickering for a moment as he processed the warning. He flapped his wings furiously, propelling himself higher into the sky just in time.

The first wave of laser beams struck the beast with pinpoint accuracy, slicing through its scaled hide and drawing a roar of pain.

The creature's roar was deafening, its agony reverberating through the air. It twisted violently, trying to retreat back into the safety of the ocean. But before it could react, the explosive rounds struck next, detonating upon impact with a series of thunderous booms.

Shrapnel and chunks of flesh erupted from the beast's massive body, splashing into the water below.

"Prepare the tractor beams! Don't let it escape into the water!" a commanding voice shouted from outside the main bridge.

Standing boldly at the bow of the massive carrier, his silver hair whipping wildly in the gale, was none other than Oscar. The scientist's white lab coat fluttered dramatically in the powerful winds, and a confident grin stretched across his face as he watched the battle unfold.

He stood there as though he were a king overseeing his kingdom, utterly unbothered by the chaos around him.

"W-What?! Professor! What are you doing out there?!" Lilla's brother, speaking through the communicator, sounded equal parts exasperated and alarmed.

"Hahaha! What else would I be doing here?!" Oscar's voice crackled back through his oxygen mask, his tone brimming with delight. "This is the first time my creations are being brought to light! Of course, I'm going to choose the most spectacular seat in the house!"

Despite his recklessness, Oscar wasn't entirely foolhardy. His oxygen mask ensured he could breathe in the harsh environment, and the magnetic boots he wore kept him firmly planted on the carrier's deck despite the violent winds.

Lilla let out a long, tired sigh, shaking her head. She was far too familiar with Oscar's eccentricities to waste time arguing with him. "Do as he says," she ordered calmly.

"Understood, Saintess!" the officers on the bridge responded, their hands flying across their consoles as they carried out the orders.

The carrier's powerful tractor beams activated, locking onto the Tier 4 beast. Beams of blinding blue energy shot out, latching onto the creature and halting its retreat. The beast writhed and thrashed, fighting the pull with every ounce of its monstrous strength.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Saintess!" one of the officers shouted, his voice filled with panic. "The beast is pulling us toward it! Its strength is overpowering our tractor beams!"

Lilla's expression remained calm and resolute. "Do not falter. Keep the beams locked on it. Max out the engines, every last ounce of output. We will not lose to a beast."

"Yes, Saintess!"

The carrier's engines roared to life, the massive vessel straining against the overwhelming force of the creature. Despite its immense size, the carrier groaned under the pressure, but it held firm.
