Collapse Iron: My Past Life Revealed, I Was Everyone's White Moonlight

Chapter 50: Doomsday Beasts, War Begins!

Without further delay, the group quickened their pace and ran along the passage towards the platform.

Lu Li followed behind the group, lost in thought.

Himeko just mentioned the Destruction Commander.

This reminded him of the high-ranking envoy named "Jin" who appeared in Putero Port in the sky.

That level of being could render ordinary people immobile with mere pressure; its strength was far beyond that of the Doomsday Beast.

However, according to the plot he remembered, this crisis at the Black Tower space station would not attract enemies at the level of Commanders.

but……

Lu Li glanced at Xing, who was running ahead, and hesitated.

With his current strength, which combines his cultivation from his previous life with the power of a Commander-level Word Spirit, he is ready to contribute to the power of the Word Spirit.

If we really go all out, it's not impossible for us to take down that Doomsday Beast single-handedly.

But what are the consequences of taking action?

The subsequent "crisis" plunged Star into dire straits, which then drew the attention of the star god Nanuk and activated the star core within her.

Will she still become that "grandpa" wielding a baseball bat and standing amidst a sea of ​​stars?

Will the path of exploration still choose her?

Will the future of this world therefore head in a completely unknown, or even worse, direction?

After all, if the main characters don't grow stronger in the later chapters...

This world could very well be...

Therefore, he made a decision in his heart two years ago when he got on the bus.

Although I am now a member of the train crew, I also know the general direction of the plot after Xing boards the train.

However, he does not intend to change the original content, especially the plot related to the growth of the main characters.

After all, not to mention that he himself, as a transmigrator, is a huge variable.

The appearance of the celestial canopy earlier had drawn the attention of the entire universe.

If the plot changes, no one can say for sure whether there will be a butterfly effect that causes the subsequent plot to deviate even more seriously.

Lu Li didn't want to gamble, nor did he dare to.

After all, the consequences of changing the plot were too severe for him to bear.

It's better to avoid trouble, especially when it's a major event that could influence the course of the world.

Reason told Lu Li that the safest and most fitting choice for his laid-back persona was to stand by and do nothing.

Just be a spectator and let the plot unfold as it originally was.

This is the best choice for everyone, including himself.

but……

I'm reminded of that scene in the story.

Lu Li looked at March 7th, then at the stars, and hesitated.

"Hmm, Lu Li, what's wrong?"

Himeko was puzzled by Lu Li's conflicted expression.

"No, it's nothing, let's go."

Lu Li collected his thoughts and sighed inwardly.

In the past, he wouldn't have had so many worries.

After all, even if he wanted to change things in the past, he didn't have the power to do so.

But now he truly possesses the power to get involved and even change the plot.

Ugh.

Is this what they mean by "with great power comes great responsibility"?

...Never mind, there's no point in thinking about it now.

Let's take a step by step.

Regardless, Xing needed this opportunity to get Nanook's attention.

This premise cannot be changed.

Lu Li shook his head, putting those distracting thoughts aside, and followed the others.

Soon, everyone arrived at the platform.

But the platform was empty at this time, and Walter and the Star Train did not seem to have arrived yet.

Dan Heng looked around. "...The train hasn't arrived yet."

"It might be nearby!" March 7th volunteered, bow in hand, and ran towards the edge of the platform. "I have good eyesight, I'll go check it out first..."

But on March 7th, he had only taken two steps forward.

As if sensing something, Dan Heng's voice instantly turned serious, "Wait for March!"

"Huh?"

Lu Li frowned slightly and pulled March 7 back before she could react.

next moment.

call--!

With a whooshing sound, a huge figure with outstretched wings burst out and circled below the platform.

"Doomsday Beast..." Himeko murmured.

Looking at Hoshino beside her with her eyes wide open, Himeko narrowed her eyes slightly. "They actually caught up with us..."

"roar!"

The Doomsday Beast slammed heavily onto the platform with a roar, and its massive shadow instantly enveloped the entire platform.

Doomsday Beast.

Antimatter Legion's anti-planet weapons.

To put it simply, it's like "a super bomb that can eat an entire planet to smithereens and then grow wings and fly."

therefore.

Big.

This was the first thought that popped into Lu Li's mind.

It's not the dry, formal adjective like "very big" in writing.

Rather, it's the kind of situation where you're standing directly beneath a living, strategic-level creature, and all you can see when you look up is a black, overwhelming carapace and dark purple light seeping through the gaps.

The kind of "big" thing that makes your brain crash.

"Bang—!"

The giant claws of the doomsday beast slammed against the edge of the platform.

The entire platform shook violently, and the metal floor instantly twisted and shattered.

The airflow caused the metal railings fixed to the floor to twist and warp, and cracks spread wildly in all directions from the claw marks like a spider web.

March 7th and the stars both froze.

The sense of oppression they felt was on a completely different level compared to the phantom soldiers they had encountered before, or even the trampler.

"spread!"

Himeko was the first to react, and her sharp shout snapped everyone out of their daze.

She pressed her right hand down, and a deep red armed briefcase suddenly appeared from the void.

The box automatically disintegrated the moment it touched the ground, reforming into a large, high-energy reflective shield that shielded everyone from the airflow stirred up by the doomsday beast.

"Danheng, March, you two are in charge of its left side, to distract it."

"Lu Li, you take Xing and hold off the right flank."

At the same time the instruction is issued.

Himeko's hands moved rapidly across the tactical terminal, creating afterimages as she swiftly entered the highest-level secret commands.

"No need for a direct confrontation, just hold them off. I need time to call in the space-based orbital cannon."

Without hesitation, Dan Heng, wielding his Cloud Cavalry Spear, charged first toward the left side of the Doomsday Beast.

March 7th also reacted, drawing back the bow and aiming it at the Doomsday Beast, beginning to cover Danheng.

Lu Li, who was called out, remained silent.

No, how much frontline work does he, as a logistics officer, actually have to do?

But despite his complaints, he couldn't really be a salted fish at such a critical juncture.

Lu Li pulled Xing behind him and drew his standard longsword from his waist. The blade reflected a cold light under the dark purple glow.

"Stay close to me, don't get separated."

Xing gripped the baseball bat tightly and nodded vigorously.

The battle erupted instantly.

Dan Heng was the first to enter, his spear transforming into a streak of blue light as he pierced the joint gap on the left wing of the Doomsday Beast.

But the next moment.

"clang!"

Accompanied by a harsh, dull thud from the collision of metal.

The gun tip left only a faint white mark on the surface of the Doomsday Beast's dark matter armor.

So hard...

Dan Heng frowned slightly, decisively withdrew his gun and flipped backward to avoid the giant claws sweeping across the Doomsday Beast.

The reinforcements arrived on March 7th, and the six-phase ice crystal bowstrings were drawn in quick succession, unleashing dozens of ice arrows laden with frost.

Ice crystals instantly spread across the Doomsday Beast's carapace.

But before March 7th could even rejoice, the spreading ice crystals were completely evaporated by the heat emanating from the surface of the Doomsday Beast's dark matter armor.

"No way, is this piece of junk cheating?" March 7th couldn't help but complain.

The Doomsday Beast was clearly impatient with the harassment from the two "flies".

The giant claw on the left side rose high again and then slammed down heavily.
