Chapter 886: Revelations

As beautiful as Europa now was, it portend the end of the human race!

Blasts from the ships pummeled the planet but were swallowed up without so much as a whisper . Suddenly the planet was as deep as a black hole . No matter how much firepower was directed at it nothing left a mark .

“Hold your fire!” There was a flash of pin, and a figure appeared at Kang Hui’s shoulder . It was one of Skyfire Avenue’s founders, the Photographer .

Luo Xianni’s face was dark as she placed a hand on the admiral’s shoulder .

Kang Hui was understandably shaken . He snapped back at her . “Why?! We’re nearly there, we-“

Luo Xianni cut him off . “Shut up . Can’t you see that our attacks helped its evolution? The energy from them has boosted it, and now their immortal realm is almost complete . Keeping up your attack only hastens the process . ”

Her reproach brought him back to his senses . Of course, ever since their attack on Europa began the planet had started to change . But what if she was wrong?

“Quickly! Do you want them to complete their process? They’ve reached the point of no return . Nothing your ships do now can harm it . ” She tried again to convince him .

Kang Hui heaved a sigh . “Cease the attack,” he ordered . “All ships hold your fire . ” He respected Luo Xianni and her status . She was, after all, the only Paragon alive who had stepped into the Infinite .

The flashes of cannon fire slowly tapered off . When the lights faded the scene that was revealed hung heavy on every heart . That place was no longer Europa . What had it become?

Luo Xianni scowled . “Lan Qing would have stopped you earlier . ”

Kang Hui’s face reddened but he did not share his misgivings . “Your Majesty,” he said, “what should we do now?”



Her eyes flashed . “Wait . Wait for Lan Qing and the others . Those four are our only hope now . You’ve done all you can, the armada is of no use anymore . We were deceived by them from the very beginning .

Trap . The word gave Kang Hui pause but he quickly recovered . He broke out in a cold sweat and his face went pale .


“You mean, they meant to…”

Luo Xianni didn’t respond except to nod .

Kang Hui’s thoughts were in chaos but one thought rose to clarity above the others .

Yes! The aliens were strong and wise . Destroying humanity would only mean perfecting their strategy . In fact all they would have had to do was keep up the fight and total annihilation would have been inevitable for mankind . It was clear to everyone, especially once this final war had begun .

Once the home worlds were out of the equation, three bastions and twelve fleets from the human lands were repeatedly pummeled by the alien horde . Were it not for Lan Qing’s superior tactics they wouldn’t have come this far . Even then there were several times humanity was on the cusp of defeat .



For instance, the battle where most of their elite were on the field . If the armada had lost they would have been routed . Without the help of the Paragons they would have fallen before the Violet Prince for sure .

Strong as the horde was, how much more terrible would they be with the addition of the home worlds?

Those three planets were not comparable to a trio of bastion ships . Kang Hui had learned this the hard way in the Shattered Starfields . Against the planets and their horde, even the total might all of the Alliances – all their bastions, ships and soldiers – would likely fall .

Thinking about it, the aliens could have fought back with their full strength at any time . So then why didn’t they? They were smart enough not to make such a glaring oversight! He was beginning to see that they were wiser than he gave them credit for . There was a method to their madness, as it were, and even the destruction of their army was part of the plan .

In constantly engaging the humans the horde had weakened them and kept the armada busy, but never lashed out with their full might . For instance, they never once attacked with all of their elite aliens at one time . At the outset Lan Jue and Qianlin weren’t even Paragons much less having achieved Nirvana . If all of the alien generals had come for them then, humanity would have been utterly destroyed .

They chose not to . Instead they indulged the human fighters’ clever tactics and bold strategies . Step by step they gave up ground and allowed their prey to retake the planets around Europa . All along they threw up hurdles and roadblocks that weakened them and attacked their morale .



It was all planned, even down to the moment they allowed the humans to destroy their army and focus their attack on Europa .

The change that had overcome the West’s capitol only occurred after the concerted effort of the armada to destroy it . Was this merely coincidence? If one believed that the aliens completed their evolution at that very moment, who was in control? It certainly wasn’t Kang Hui’s side .

The possibilities stabbed at Kang Hui’s heart . He was finally thinking clearly .

The greatest possibility was that the aliens had planned everything from the start . Losing was part of their strategy, allowing a series of defeats to lull the humans into a false sense of security . All of it leading up to today, where they’d laid in wait for the moment when the armada would turn their guns on Europa . The remaining alien soldiers were a ruse to draw them in .

The final steps of their evolution must require a tremendous amount of energy . Energy like that released by bastions, energy Europa could swallow up and use to its own advantage . If this were true it meant the home worlds knew what was needed from the beginning . They’d masterfully guided the humans every step of the way to happily deliver the final piece .  

What he and his soldiers had thought was the cusp of victory, was in fact the machinations of a vastly superior enemy . He’d given the order himself . His command gave the aliens precisely what they needed .

If all that were true than the entity they now faced was more terrifying than anything he could imagine .  Everything had been perfectly calculated, exquisitely structured . It was too late now to take it all back .
