Chapter 549 Chapter 549 – Attack
“It’s all thanks to you…”
Looking at Chen Heng in front of her, Liu Rou nodded and said with a smile.
“I haven’t thanked you for what happened back then.”
After so many years, she looked at Chen Heng and said solemnly. Back then, on the eve of the battle between Chen Heng and Crimson Knight, he once had a chat with her. This was what Liu Rou was talking about.
“There’s no need to thank me.”
Chen Heng shook his head and said with a smile, “Back then, things had already developed into that state. It doesn’t matter no matter what I do.
“On the other hand, if you hadn’t done that back then, you would have been implicated in the end. I wonder what would have happened.”
“No matter what, I still have to say thank you…”
Liu Rou’s expression was solemn when she heard Chen Heng’s words. She thanked him once again. She was indeed very grateful for what had happened back then. She had reason to thank Chen Heng personally. “After the incident ended, I was groomed in the group and became one of the higher-ups. Then, some things happened, and I became independent…”
Sitting there, she looked at Chen Heng and told him about her experiences over the years. In general, Liu Rou’s experiences over the years were very calm.
After Chen Heng left Qika Star, due to the previous incident and Liu Rou’s relationship with Chen Heng, she was highly valued by the Black Dream Group. Therefore, she was greatly groomed and eventually became one of the higher-ups.
After that, she chose to quit and re-establish her own company because of some matters. After developing to this point, the business under her was growing to a larger scale. It was only a little smaller scale than the current Black Dream Group.
“I have to thank you for this.”
Looking at Chen Heng, Liu Rou said again, “After the news that you are still alive came out, my situation improved a lot.
“Many people came to me and gave me a lot of benefits.
“These are all for your sake.”
The relationship between Liu Rou and Chen Heng could be known by discerning people as long as they paid attention to it. It was precisely because of this that after the news that Chen Heng was still alive came out, Liu Rou immediately received attention.
Those who wanted to make friends with Chen Heng lacked the means to find him, so they found Liu Rou, hoping to use Liu Rou’s side of the channel to build a connection with Chen Heng or the Star Alliance.
This kind of thing was a piece of cake for those people. They did not ask for much help, but it was enough as long as they could be of some use. Liu Rou understood this very well. She knew who was responsible for this.
They chatted for a while, then Chen Heng stood up and left the place in front of him. He said goodbye to Liu Rou, then walked forward alone in this familiar but strange city. Behind him, Liu Rou stood in place, looking at Chen Heng’s departing figure. Her expression became somewhat complicated. It seemed to carry some nostalgia and also seemed to sigh. At this moment, she knew clearly in her heart. After this time, if she wanted to meet Chen Heng again, it would probably be a matter of a very long time.
In fact, she might not even be able to see him again in the future. In this regard, she sighed, then silently stood up and left.
On the other side, Chen Heng walked alone in the city in front of him. There were many traces of his past in the city. After a few years, this place did not seem to change much. Many places were still the same.
Those people were also ordinary. On the way, Chen Heng even met many familiar people. Of course, he knew others, but others did not know him. With his strength, it was not an exaggeration to say that as long as a mortal was seen by him once, they would not be forgotten and would be firmly remembered in his mind.
And he had once lived in this city, so he remembered quite a number of people. Now that he was touring this city again, the feeling was very special.
“There are still not many changes…”
Chen Heng shook his head while walking in this city as this thought flashed through his mind. A moment later, he raised his head and looked at the sky. Above, the azure blue sky still looked the same as before, and there were few changes.
White clouds floated in the sky as if they were about to disperse but also condensed. It looked like it was going to rain soon.
‘It’s time to leave….’
Leaving the Qika Star, the Qika Federation quickly obtained what they wanted. As they wished, they joined the Star Alliance and became another faction within the Star Alliance. Of course, to Chen Heng, this was just a small matter.
After leaving Qika star, he brought Lu Yao forward. This time, his target was none other than the core of the Round Table. There, the last of the Five Knights, the Twilight Knight, was asleep. “Should we be here this early?”
On the way, hearing Chen Heng’s decision, Lu Yao’s face showed some worry. “Should we wait a little longer?”
The Twilight Knight, this knight could be said to be famous in this galaxy. Under this galaxy, the Twilight Knight had the title of the Twilight King. This was not like the other Five Knights, but a great knight who had the power of a king.
Facing such a person, it’s never enough to be more cautious. It was also because before this, regardless of how the Star Alliance and the Round Table fought, Chen Heng and the others had no intention of attacking the core of the Round Table.
But now, from Chen Heng’s reaction, the situation was different. He already had the idea of directly attacking the Round Table and fighting with the Twilight Knight.
Although Lu Yao had enough confidence in Chen Heng, she could not help but worry in her heart.
“Don’t you want to wait for the others?”
She looked at Chen Heng in front of her and said with some worry. The others she was talking about were naturally the Black King and Philip. Chen Heng was not the only peak powerhouse in the Star Alliance. There were also Philip and the Black King.
As for the situation before them, since they were already prepared for the final battle with the Round Table, calling the other two over was undoubtedly the safest option.
“The two of them are currently in their respective domains and can’t get away for the time being.”
Standing beside Lu Yao, Chen Heng shook his head and said softly, “One of them is amid metamorphosis, while the other still has to comb through the array formation of the Hechi Starfield. Both of them can’t get away for the time being.”
Philip and the Black King couldn’t leave for the time being. Although it wasn’t certain, it would be a little troublesome if they left. After all, whether it was the Black King or Philip, they were both at a critical moment and couldn’t leave easily.
Lu Yao knew a little about the situation between the Black King and Philip, so she didn’t want Chen Heng to leave at this moment.
“Can’t we wait a little longer?”
Lu Yao’s expression was solemn, standing on the spot and looking at Chen Heng in front of her. At this moment, she said softly, “We’ll go in a few years. When the time comes, it won’t just be them. I can also help you a little… “When the time comes, brother, you won’t have to fight alone like now…”
She looked at Chen Heng in front of her, sighed softly, and said. Currently, Lu Yao’s strength was nothing compared to Chen Heng’s. But she was growing very quickly.
Lu Yao’s foundation was already very good. Even without the Golden Mark’s support, she still had the potential to become a king. She was the world’s top genius.
The Golden Mark’s support allowed her to obtain the Golden King’s inheritance, which gave her that foundation. With these things and Lu Yao’s own will obliterated, her growth speed could be considered very fast.
It would not take long. In just ten years, Lu Yao was confident that she would be able to help in the battle with the Twilight Knight. Hearing her words, Chen Heng could not help but be stunned. After a long while, he smiled.
“You don’t have to.”
He spoke softly. Under Lu Yao’s gaze, he shook his head silently. “I’m not as weak as you think.
“Don’t worry.”
His cold words fell on the spot. Looking at Lu Yao in front of him, Chen Heng smiled. Then, he turned around and looked in a direction in the distance. “Since I said so, I have a certain degree of confidence.
“Others are improving, and I am the same.”
He spoke softly. His tone was very relaxed, but it was filled with confidence. Indeed, Chen Heng was now different from before. Philip’s transformation in the initial space brought unimaginable benefits to Chen Heng.
Almost every moment, a large number of nomological insights were transmitted to Chen Heng through Philip’s avatar, causing his essence to begin to transform and advance to a higher level.
Under this impetus, Chen Heng became stronger almost every moment. In the past, Chen Heng’s strength could take on the Blue Knight and Crimson Knight alone, not falling behind.
But now, after a few years, his strength had already advanced to a higher level. Even the king of this world was most likely not his match. Moreover, that Twilight Knight was still in the process of transforming. He was not a true king yet.
Facing such an opponent, Chen Heng had no reason to be afraid, nor could he be afraid. Of course, no matter what, the Twilight was still a top figure in this world no matter what. He was an existence comparable to a king.
Against such a figure, Chen Heng would not underestimate his opponent. He would not be full of confidence just because he thought that his opponent was not his opponent.
What truly made Chen Heng feel absolute confidence was his other trump cards. Philip was in the initial space. As long as Chen Heng was willing, he would be able to arrive at the fastest speed possible.
At that time, once Chen Heng discovered that the Twilight Knight’s strength was beyond his expectations and that he was no match for him, he would immediately shake Philip and call him over. At that time, it would naturally not be a problem for him to defeat the Twilight Knight with numbers.
“Brother…”
Looking at the calm and determined Chen Heng in front of her, Lu Yao opened her mouth. She wanted to say something, but she did not say anything in the end.
She could tell that Chen Heng’s emotions looked calm, but his attitude was exceptionally firm, and it was difficult to persuade him. Moreover, she had a certain amount of confidence in Chen Heng.
Since she was young, Chen Heng had never let her down, no matter what time it was. At this time, it would not be surprising. Of course, the most important point was that Lu Yao firmly believed that Chen Heng would be able to come back alive.
With Chen Heng’s current strength, even if his opponent was the legendary king, he might be able to defeat him, but he would most only be able to suppress him. He definitely would not be able to kill Chen Heng.
If that were all, then it wouldn’t matter. Standing on the spot, this thought flashed through Lu Yao’s mind. Then, she met Chen Heng’s gaze and nodded silently.
In the following period, shocking news spread out from Qika Star. Chen Heng’s figure appeared on Qika Star. This news was immediately spread out and quickly spread to all places.
Until now, Chen Heng was no longer a small figure. The current him was the leader of the entire Star Alliance and one of the strongest powerhouses in the galaxy. He was even more powerful than the Five Knights.
Such a figure’s every move would be watched by countless people, and they would try their best to guess his movements. Therefore, when the news of Chen Heng’s appearance was spread, countless people immediately began to analyze it seriously, wanting to understand what Chen Heng was trying to do.
In response to this, Chen Heng quickly expressed his intentions with actions. From the moment he appeared near the Qika Federation, Chen Heng immediately moved, heading towards the depths of the galaxy. And the direction he was heading towards was precisely the location of the Round Table.
Was a great battle about to begin? After learning of Chen Heng’s movements, many people had this thought in their hearts, and then they all became excited at the same time.
In the past few years, even though the Star Alliance and the Round Table were in a big battle, the battle between the two sides was only limited to the bottom level. The strongest person who made a move was only at the peak of Fifth Rank.
Although this strength could be considered quite good, it was still nothing to the two behemoths, the Round Table and the Star Alliance, even in the entire galaxy. It could only be said to be a small fight.
And this time, Chen Heng headed straight for the area controlled by the Round Table. Did this mean that the battle situation was going to escalate? Was the final battle between the Star Alliance and the Round Table about to begin?
During this period, this thought flashed through the minds of everyone who knew the news. Then, they all increased their strength, paying attention to it with the most cautious attitude.
Under their attention, Chen Heng’s figure charged straight towards the starfield controlled by the Round Table Association. From its looks, it seemed like he was going to launch an attack on his own.
Following which, the shocking collision began. Bringing Lu Yao, Chen Heng stepped into an unfamiliar starfield. The galaxy in front of him was extremely unfamiliar, and it was filled with a dangerous aura.
There were a few stars in the surroundings, but they had already withered. There wasn’t the slightest bit of life. Instead, there was a thick aura of decay.
“A familiar aura, and that deep aura of death…”
After coming to this starfield and sensing the aura in the surroundings, Chen Heng’s heart moved. He had an inexplicable feeling. Then, under his gaze, the dim galaxy in front of him began to light up. Densely packed symbols flickered on a few stars in the distance, and a sky full of radiance began to blossom. Soon after, a group of originally hidden experts appeared, lying across this place.
It was a group of astonishing experts, numbering in the tens of thousands. Every one of them was at least an existence above the third rank and could be considered elites among the various life stars. And now, such a shocking number of elites had set up a formation on the stars in front of them, setting up a shocking formation. They used the several stars in front of them as the array diagram and set up countless runes on it, creating a shocking formation. It was fine if it was just that. More importantly, there was a faint, even more, tyrannical power added into this formation, suppressing everything. Even Chen Heng was somewhat surprised.
“A formation that is not inferior to the Black King’s king formation…”
Chen Heng’s body was tall and straight, standing on the spot. At this moment, as he looked at the formation in front of him, various thoughts flashed through his mind. “Furthermore, it was set up by at least a few peak powerhouses.”
In terms of complexity and subtlety, the formation in front of him was probably not inferior to the Black King’s spirit formation. Moreover, just like the spirit formation that the Black King had personally set up, this formation was also set up by unparalleled powerhouses. There were powerhouses that were not inferior to the Black King.
It was likely that when it was set up, it was set up by the Five Knights of the Round Table, which was why it had such an effect. Chen Heng was not surprised by this.
No matter what, the Round Table Association was still a huge force that had ruled this galaxy for thousands of years. It was a well-deserved overlord in the past.
During the thousands of years that it had ruled, it had plundered countless good things. It was extremely normal for it to possess such a formation. It was not just the formation. The power contained within this formation made Chen Heng feel a little surprised. He could feel his heart palpitate instinctively.
It was a shadow that was shrouded behind the formation. It stood behind the formation and was not visible at this moment. However, the power that it revealed was unparalleled. It even made Chen Heng feel a faint threat.
“Interesting…”
Feeling the aura coming from ahead, Chen Heng muttered to himself as this thought flashed through his mind. In front of him, a cold voice sounded.
“King of Star, please leave immediately…
“You are not welcome here…” In front of him, a cold mechanical voice sounded. It was somewhat like a mechanical voice, cold and boring, without the slightest emotion of a living person.
Chen Heng ignored the voice in front of him. He raised his head and looked at the formation in front of him. The formation in front of him not only blocked the path in front of him but also blocked everything on the level of space.
When the formation in front of him was activated, no one could cross it. Not even using a spatial formation could pass through it. This was because the space had already been suppressed and could not be shaken. Before the formation was shaken and collapsed, no one could advance through the teleportation formation. The only thing they could do was break the formation openly and continue forward.
Chen Heng saw this. And so, he made his move.
Rumble!
The world in front of him began to rumble. The entire world began to change. When Chen Heng began to make his move, the magic formation in front of him began to open up, swallowing his entire body. An enormous power began to spread out, crushing forward.
