The Seventh Base

Capítulo 1301: Chapter 60: History

In the era of the Empire, the Empire ruled the known endless territories of the universe. Each Star Domain developed freely, and the Empire would not interfere much as long as they did not violate the Empire’s Charter.

During this era, many brilliant civilizations emerged, among which the Atlas Civilization was one.

The Atlas Civilization, located at the center of the Emperor River, was technologically advanced, economically developed, and its citizens were well-off. In the Atlas Civilization, war was a very distant term.

Due to strict laws, humans of the Atlas Civilization adhered to order; they loved peace and freedom, staying away from war and suffering.

Bruno was the ‘Prince’ of Atlas; born into the Royal Family, he had everything enviable—rich in knowledge, with exceptional aptitude in Cultivation, possessing a strong sense of Cosmic Source Power, he became a Great Practitioner at a young age.

Bruno was kind, humble, and courteous, revered as a national idol in Atlas. He showcased impressive talent in the virtual cosmic world battle tournaments held during the Empire era and achieved glorious records; his name was even known to people in other Star Domains.

The virtual cosmic battles of the Empire era also led him to meet many friends, including his later wife, a princess from another Advanced Civilization.

Their wedding drew the attention of the entire civilization, hailed as a wedding of the century. Countless came to congratulate them, including friends from different civilizations and Star Domains.

It was an extremely good era, a time deeply missed.

The vast Empire and virtual cosmic world connected human groups from different parts of the universe, forming relationships, and Bruno had the fruits of love. Everything was so beautiful.

However, one sudden day, the entire world changed drastically; everything became utterly unfamiliar.

Rumor had it that the Emperor vanished, followed by a sweeping rebellion across the Empire. A massive war erupted, seemingly in an instant, plunging the entire world into chaos, with rebellions rising everywhere.

People of the Atlas Civilization loved peace, lived in prosperity, and were unwilling to be involved in the war. They even called for peace together with many civilizations, but to no avail.

The universe fell into utter madness; that period was the dark and chaotic era of the universe, with war affecting almost every corner of the universe.

As a prosperous civilization, Atlas inevitably became a target for war; many forces joined together to wage war on the Atlas Civilization, and Bruno, as the Prince, naturally joined the war.

Unfortunately, they were defeated. The Atlas Civilization was destroyed, his father, who was a Destroyer Level existence, perished.

The era of imperial rule gave birth to many super-powerful beings; countless Skywalkers and many Destroyer Level existences appeared. Yet, during the century-long dark and chaotic era, many top Transcendents fell.

The entirety of cosmic civilization regressed; both technology and Cultivation were in decline, especially in the years following the chaos’s end; many planets vanished from the universe, countless planets became ruins.

Bruno was captured alive; his captors wanted a Cosmic Treasure his father had obtained, but at the time, he had no idea what it was.

Thus, he endured the world’s cruelest punishments; they tortured his son in front of him, humiliated his wife, yet still failed to extract anything, leaving him crippled.

From then on, the talented and handsome prince of the Atlas Civilization, bearing countless halos, became a cripple.

However, the cruelty escalated.

In his despair, those Atlas Civilization citizens who once envied and admired him, after experiencing war, madly plundered all wealth, treated him like a beast rather than a ‘Prince,’ and humiliated him, attempting to extract wealth from him.

Bruno could not believe that the admiring gazes in his glorious days turned so unfamiliar and false, becoming wicked and cruel.

This was more painful for him than war defeat and captivity.

From then on, he became a living corpse, witnessing the ugliness of the world, turning cold-hearted, observing this despairing world.

Greed, sin, cruelty, ugliness—these were traits of humans he once considered civilized and noble.

Relying on memory, Bruno found the Cosmic Treasure left by his father.

Since then, the cosmic world lost an elegant, talented, kind prince, and gained a Divine believer claiming to be the Son of God.

The name Bruno vanished from the universe; only the Pope stood above all, with countless followers, wielding the Punishment Sword and Divine Scepter.

Unchanged was his enduring love for the world and this universe.

Hence, he sought to restore the universe to its original form, letting ugliness disappear.

Humanity must die!!

This Pope, he never sought power, nor did he desire to rule the universe.

He wanted war; he wanted humanity’s extinction.

In this way, all evil and ugliness can be eliminated.

Light will once again shine upon the earth, and the universe will be restored to its beauty.

Above the temple, countless beams of light shot out from beside the Pope, activating all the weapons of attack in Holy Light City, firing upon the fleet high in the sky. At the same time, their remaining fleet continued to fight, sparing no cost to destroy the Abyss fleet.

The Pope raised the scepter in his left hand, and a dazzling radiance fell upon Holy Light City, bathing the entire city in divine light. A beam of light appeared in the sky, shining on the Pope, making him seem incredibly holy, like a true emissary of God.

In the sky appeared a gigantic phantom of light, equally crowned with a laurel.

“God nurtures all living beings, grants me flesh and blood,” said the Pope slowly. Instantly, the light in the sky grew brighter, and the entire sky echoed with the sound. Countless people looked up, unafraid of war, bathed in holy light, they grew serene, watching the descent of the heavenly gods, and chanted together: “God nurtures all living beings, grants me flesh and blood.”

“Light nurtures the earth, grants me a soul.”

“Cleanse me of sin, grant me divine strength.”

“Heal my broken body, make me eternal.”

Voices emerged from Holy Light City, their eyes seemed to glow with light, filled with devout faith.

The Pope’s right hand moved as well, the Punishment Sword in his hand pointed towards the sky, and instantly, countless figures from Holy Light City charged upward fearlessly, fighting for faith.

In the sky, the people in the starships noticed the scene below, challenging starships with flesh and blood?

Only beings at the Skywalker level could threaten a starship; anything below, even the lowest-grade starship, they could not breach.

However, Holy Light City likely possessed powerful equipment to enhance combat power, such as mechas.

“Courting death,” Adolf sneered, looking disdainfully downward.

But at that moment, he saw numerous mechanical figures emerge from the temple.

These mechanical figures seemed like humans clad in massive light armor, wings on their backs, extremely dazzling, like legendary angels.

The figures grew in number, densely packed, numbering perhaps in the tens of thousands.

Adolf’s pupils slightly contracted; the Abyss had always been cultivating Deadpool soldiers through genetic material, breeding many absolutely loyal to the Abyss Corps, but if they could do it, so could the Church.

Moreover, the Church’s location on Midgard Star was far superior geographically to the Abyss, with more abundant resources. Over hundreds of years, the Church has likely been secretly cultivating Deadpool-like figures akin to the Abyss Corps.

Now, they seemed to appear in view.

This was like the Angel Army.

Over hundreds of years, how many could have been trained?

The Church has always been doing this. This Angel Army is absolutely loyal to the Pope, equipped with superior gear.

This Angel Army is the Church’s strongest foundation aside from the fleet over hundreds of years.

“Buzz…” The Pope’s body floated upwards, heading towards the sky, at once the mighty Angel Army from Holy Light City soared into the sky, their bodies shooting out like beams of light.

The vast Angel Army spread out, making it impossible to distinguish who’s strong or weak, making it difficult for the Abyss forces to strike.

At that time, the Abyss’s starship doors opened simultaneously, and instantly many small starships took off, along with the Abyss Corps, roaring as they charged downward. For a time, the scene in the sky was extremely magnificent.

The two sides collided in mid-air, and the attacks from both the fleet and ground forces did not cease. The sky over Midgard Star descended into utter chaos.

The Abyss’s advanced starships continued to seek opportunities in other areas, and some starships managed to launch Star Annihilation-level attacks onto the ground, causing the earth to crack and destroy city after city.

But Midgard is a large starship; ordinary Star Annihilation weapons can’t cause the planet to disintegrate and explode, only Death Star Bombs can do that.

In the midst of the great battle, the Pope’s body ascended into the sky, the gigantic figure in space like a true god, as if the creator appeared, the Pope’s left hand raised, the scepter absorbing cosmic light sources, and in the next moment, a terrifying laser beam was released from the scepter, striking towards a starship.

“Boom…”

That starship trembled violently, its protective shield continuously disintegrated, and the laser beam from the scepter broke through the defensive shield, then pierced the starship’s interior, causing it to disintegrate and explode.

On the base ship, Xu Mo watched the Pope’s figure. As the universe’s top entity, this Pope perhaps possesses the power to withstand even advanced starships.
