Starting from the Planetary Governor

“Hahahaha! You’ve found this place, but what does it matter? Everything is already too late!”

“The will of the divine is about to descend, our preparations are complete, Revival City! All people! You will become the cornerstone of the God’s revival!”

“The revival of Rage Owl Star does not need the support of a false emperor, nor the help from outsiders. Rage Owl Star will be revived under the will of the God!”

He delivered his fanatical speech, and these words, without a doubt, enraged the space warriors and battle nuns.

Especially the term ‘false emperor,’ which was the most intolerable and blasphemous language.

“Silence, traitor!”

“You will pay for your blasphemy!”

“You and the evil god you worship will both atone with your deaths!”

The infuriated warriors and nuns began to further attack the wind barrier that blocked their way.

When they found that the bomb guns were not very effective, some of them brought out even stronger abilities.

Georgette, Matins, and Priest Rizzo charged straight ahead.

The sacred golden halberd in Georgette’s hand, a powerful weapon against evil, was not as effective as before at this time. With a slash, the golden blade would burst into intense flashes of light upon hitting the wind wall, symbolizing the clash of spiritual energy.

The wind wall would sustain an ‘injury,’ but this damage would be rapidly healed by the swift flowing wind the very next moment.

Matins’s fine chainsaw sword, though perhaps more powerful than the golden halberd, was less effective against such defense mechanisms built of some form of spiritual energy. When the roaring chainsaw sword struck, it would be repelled instead. If it wasn’t for Matins’s superior martial skills and extraordinary swordsmanship, he could have been injured by the recoil.

Priest Rizzo, on the other hand, proved to be more reliable than his battle group leader. His priestly scepter, like a war hammer, smashed into the wind wall. When the gravity generator in the head of the scepter was activated, it made the force of the scepter’s strike even more ferocious than a real war hammer.

Every swing of Rizzo’s scepter caused a large area of the wind wall to shake.

The all-out attacks of the three experts made the defense of the wind wall not so impregnable. Coupled with the continuous firepower from others, the entire wind wall seemed to be in a state of turmoil.

Seeing this, the Primal High Priest’s smile faded.

He took a small magical instrument from his waist and directed it toward the burly man in a grey robe who served before him.

“Gale Envoy, it’s time for your sacrifice.”

The Gale Envoy humbly lowered his head and spoke with devotion, “It is my honor.”

Cui Kao nodded appreciatively and then activated the magical instrument in his hand.

From the tip of the instrument, a golden bolt of lightning was released, striking the Gale Envoy.

With a scream of agony, the golden current started to surge and travel about his body, forming a golden electric net pattern that completely enveloped him.

The pattern of the electric net grew denser and more magnificent, until finally, his whole body spasmed and transformed into a pure golden humanoid lightning.

He stopped trembling, slowly stood up, and turned his head.

He had lost his human appearance and became a pure yet unstable form of energy.

The next moment, he truly turned into a bolt of lightning and merged into the wind wall.

Among all those who launched attacks on the wind wall, Georgette and Priest Rizzo were considered the most threatening.

The Gale Envoy’s target was set on Georgette. Priest Rizzo on the other side, wearing power armor that clearly had better defensive capabilities, was not someone to be trifled with.

When Georgette struck at the wind wall with another slash, the man merged with the wind wall and lightning instantly arrived at her side. Seizing the moment she attacked, a golden bolt of lightning extended from within the wind wall.

It was like a spear, thrusting at Georgette.

The Battle Nun reacted extremely quickly. Unable to dodge in time, she managed to retract the Fine Chainsaw Sword that hadn’t yet struck the wind wall and counter-slashed at the golden lightning spear, cleaving it apart with one strike.

An arc explosion, the intense energy knocked Georgette back.

Seeing that the Battle Nun did not immediately rush back into the fray, it was evident that she had taken some discomfort.

On the contrary, the Gale Envoy, transformed into golden lightning, seemed unaffected and continued to weave like a dragon through the wind wall.

The distant shooter wielding a bomb gun was no threat to him; however, the three close by, whenever they launched an attack, would be harassed by him.

The power of that golden lightning was not weak. A slight misstep in handling it could lead to injury.

In turn, they had nothing that could threaten the Gale Envoy.

Direct attacks were effective, but only if they could hit their mark. That guy, moving freely within the wind wall, would just run if he missed.

If they couldn’t tear through the wind wall, they couldn’t harm the Gale.

A group of space soldiers and Battle Nuns were stopped by a single wind wall and, for the moment, were at a loss for how to proceed.

And throughout this process, Gu Hang had not made a move.

It wasn’t that he harbored any ill intentions.

In fact, Gu Hang felt incredibly angry with Cui Kao’s earlier speech.

Insulting the ‘false emperor’ felt alright to him; but the idea of sacrificing the several hundred thousand people of Revival City really infuriated Gu Hang.

I suffered indignities and worked the fields outside to preserve this bit of population as seeds for the future’s prosperity, and now you plan to sacrifice them all in a whim?

And you keep spouting about the revival of Rage Owl Star, but with everyone sacrificed and sent to meet your so-called Rage Owl God, what will you have left to revive Rage Owl Star with?

Are you relying on your insane Evil God?

The Empire may not be anything good, but does that make you cultists any better?

However, even with his rage boiling, Gu Hang still managed to stay calm.

He didn’t make a move because it was pointless.

The power of the Battle Nun’s Fine Chainsaw Sword and the Priest’s Gravity Scepter was far greater than any force Gu Hang could muster with all his Spiritual Energy. Even if Gu Hang joined in, it would be roughly equivalent to adding another bomb gun to their side, which wasn’t very helpful.

Instead, as a user of Spiritual Energy, what Gu Hang should do was to think and find a way to break the deadlock.

This wasn’t like the situation they’d encountered at the entrance with the enchantment. Back then, their strength completely overwhelmed the opposition, so it didn’t matter how clever the design was – if one strike didn’t break it, just use two.

Now, they had to think of a clever solution.

Though Gu Hang hadn’t figured out how to break the wind wall, his observations in this short period had brought him some other insights.

These insights not only shocked him but also showed him a glimmer of hope.
