Chapter 271: Chapter 270: Devouring the Vast Star

"Wandering Alliance, thank you for your assistance, we will forever be grateful!"

After personally resolving the Earth Core Civilization, the remaining twelve Battle Stars of the Eternal Life Civilization sent messages of gratitude.

At the same time, gazing upon the vanishing Earth Core Star, every individual from Eternal Life Civilization also prayed internally: Rest assured, we have avenged you!

Green Star, who led the team to support Eternal Life Civilization, said, "No need for thanks, we had already agreed on this collaboration!"

"Regardless, we are still immensely grateful. Without you, we could never have so easily avenged our fallen comrades!"

At this moment, the entire Eternal Life Civilization was profoundly thankful to the Wandering Alliance, especially after experiencing the betrayal of the Earth Core Civilization. The warmth of receiving sudden support touched them in indescribable ways.

Because of these events, Eternal Life Civilization regarded the Wandering Alliance as benefactors, and trust was inevitably built.

Although the Eternal Life Civilization understood that this was merely agreed cooperation, after experiencing so much deception, the sudden emergence of sincerity was so rare and precious that they couldn’t help feeling good will and gratitude.

Green Star asked, "Are there any survivors left from the Earth Core Civilization?"

Eternal Life Civilization replied, "We are not sure about the past, but all members of the Earth Core Civilization who reached out to us have been completely eliminated. They had seized several of our Planet Battle Stars which have also been destroyed in the recent battle, so there should be no omissions!"

Green Star responded, "That’s good. If the Earth Core Civilization had any remnants left, it might cause trouble in the future!"

"Don’t worry, we completely understand this!"

Eternal Life Civilization said, "Now, we have obliterated both the Square Clan Civilization and the Earth Core Civilization. Only two Constant Stars remain in battle. Should we offer assistance?"

Green Star stated, "You haven’t combated side by side with a Constant Star Celestial Civilization before, have you? Their level of battle doesn’t require our involvement. If there’s really a need, Demon Star will notify us. For now, simply guarding the surrounding space is enough!"

Then, Green Star began arranging Earth’s Battle Stars from one through eight, along with the 12 Battle Stars of the Eternal Life Civilization, to various coordinates one light-year away from the two Constant Star battlefronts, in case of any unforeseen changes.

Considering the recent assistance from the Wandering Alliance, Eternal Life Civilization did not say much and complied with Green Star’s arrangement.

Just as Green Star finished the disposition of Battle Stars around the battlefield, Earth Civilization also returned, controlling the Earth Battle Star.

Green Star then asked, "Is everything alright? Was the Square Clan Civilization eliminated? Did you recover the Black Entropy Ball?"

Skipping the first two queries, Earth Civilization went straight to the point, "The Black Entropy Ball was successfully retrieved, found at the site of explosions on Square Clan Star. However, what was unexpected is just how heaven-defying this Black Entropy Ball is. It can not only absorb most of the light and heat from a Constant Star but also cannot be destroyed by Basic Force Bombs— the technological level of the Entropy Civilization that created Entropy Beasts is unimaginable!"

Precisely because of the desire to test the Black Entropy Ball, Earth Civilization used a Basic Force Bomb to blow up the Square Clan Star.

While Green Star and Earth Civilization were exchanging information, Metal Planet Wandering also returned fully loaded. After some time, Wandering had absorbed all the Metal Elements from nearby Battle Star debris.

Now, the planetary mass of Wandering reached 1500, an increase of two hundred from before!

At this moment, two of the three battlefields had concluded their conflicts, with only Constant Star Lu Chen and Constant Star Han Xing continuing their battle.

However, the battle between Lu Chen and Han Xing was not like the previous wars between Constant Stars. Their fight largely revolved around the Constant Star Eternal in the Eternal Life Star System.

Knowing he was no match for Lu Chen at the moment, Han Xing’s primary goal was to plunder hydrogen from the surface of Eternal as well as to avoid direct conflict with Lu Chen as much as possible, while Lu Chen momentarily could not fully resolve Han Xing and thus also aimed to plunder hydrogen from Eternal.

Thus, a rather peculiar scene formed on the battlefield.

Both Han Xing and Lu Chen were rotating around Eternal, and as they spun, they used Gravity Increments to plunder hydrogen from its surface, like a game among three spheres!

From afar, it looked as if two Constant Stars were plundering another, quite reminiscent of the Double Loxi Limit once used by Constant Stars Kim and Silver!

However, unlike Kim and Silver, the masses of Lu Chen and Han Xing were not similar, in fact, vastly different, thus their speeds in plundering hydrogen were not equal.

Lu Chen’s speed was roughly dozens of times faster than Han Xing’s. From the perspective of a sphere like Wandering, it was clear to see that Lu Chen’s acquisition of hydrogen resembled the pouring out of rivers, while Han Xing, due to his mass issue, could only manage a trickle-like amount, as different as heaven and earth.

At the same time, Lu Chen was continuously speeding up his orbital rotation while plundering hydrogen, attempting to catch up with or collide with Han Xing, which would ensure the latter couldn’t escape. However, Han Xing was no foolish sphere and quickly realized Lu Chen’s intention, thus forcibly increased his own orbital speed.

In that manner, both spheres escalated their chase by speeding up their rotations while plundering hydrogen.

As their orbital speeds increasingly accelerated, their orbital tracks slowly overlapped, where initially taking five hours per orbit, it eventually took less than one hour.

During this time, Earth People were observing this battle through telescopes from Earth.

But they noted, as the rotational speeds of both Constant Stars increased to such an extent that finally, one could no longer discern the details of the two stars with the naked eye, instead, they saw a bright ring form around Eternal, appearing like a thick, intense Star Ring around it, larger even than Eternal itself, dazzlingly beautiful!

This situation lasted until the plundering ended. When all mass was depleted from Eternal, divided between Lu Chen and Han Xing, the central light source vanished entirely, but given the ongoing threat from behind, Han Xing maintained high-speed rotation, fearful of being caught if he stopped.

In this pursuit, Lu Chen sharply altered his trajectory, moving directly to the original position of Eternal. At that moment, Han Xing, still in high-speed rotation, immediately interacted with the gravitational force exerted by Lu Chen, falling into the gravitational Roche Limit of the more potent Constant Star, and began being swiftly consumed by Lu Chen.

"Damn it!"

Realizing this turn, Han Xing couldn’t help but curse furiously!
