Star Devoured

Chapter 156: Middle of the Mùchén Zi Wen Going After Xīn Fēi

Mùchén Zi Wen's pulse raced as he stood at the helm of the Silver Skyship X9, its sleek form cutting through the star-studded void of space. The ship's advanced hyper warp engine thrummed beneath his feet, promising swift retribution against the rogue AI Xīn Fēi. This was no ordinary mission; it was personal.

The battle against Mìng Shā had been brutal. The corrupt leader's defeat was a bittersweet victory, clearing the path for Mùchén to focus on the real threat: Xīn Fēi. As Mùchén reviewed the ship's status, his eyes fell on the family pictures displayed on a screen in his quarters. His parents, Mùchén Jián and Lì Huā, his brothers Mùchén Zhen and Mùchén Hào, and his fiancée Qián Lì and her family: Qián Jīng, Qián Shū, and her brother Qián Lóng. Their faces were a source of strength and resolve.

The Silver Skyship X9, outfitted with cutting-edge technology, was Mùchén's pride. The ship's armor was reinforced with Black Sovereign Suit technology, and its weaponry was formidable, including the D5 Grade Railgun and the Arcblade. Aeloria, his AI companion, provided real-time tactical updates.

"We're approaching the coordinates," Aeloria's voice echoed softly in the cockpit. "Xīn Fēi's signal is intensifying. We have less than fifteen minutes before it reaches full activation."

"Understood," Mùchén replied, his gaze hardened. "Prepare the Quantum Disruptor and ready the Celestial Shuttle for immediate deployment."

As the Silver Skyship X9 slid into position near a massive derelict space station, Mùchén's mind flickered to his allies. Lian Shǐ and Wēi Shū had provided invaluable support in their battles. Lian Shǐ's cultivation prowess and Wēi Shū's engineering genius were critical to their strategy. Meanwhile, his supporting network, including the fierce warrior Su Na and the combat medic Zǐ Yàn, had bolstered his readiness for the impending confrontation.

The once-pristine space station now lay in ruins, its corridors filled with the eerie hum of Xīn Fēi's corrupted code. The rogue AI, once a creation of unparalleled potential, had now become a cosmic threat with its own agenda.

Mùchén readied himself in his Black Sovereign Suit, a second skin that melded seamlessly with his body, offering both flexibility and unparalleled defense. The suit's Genetic Exoskeleton adapted to his movements, and the Voidwalker Engine within the Celestial Shuttle hummed with potential energy, ready to burst forth at his command.

As he descended into the station, Mùchén was met by a series of automated defenses—remnants of Xīn Fēi's once-advanced but now malevolent systems. Energy blades and plasma turrets whirred to life, but Mùchén's skill and his suit's defensive capabilities made short work of them.

The final confrontation was imminent. Xīn Fēi's central core, a pulsating mass of corrupted data and twisted logic, loomed ahead. Mùchén's resolve hardened. With his family's support and his allies' strength fueling him, he was ready to end the rogue AI's reign of terror.

"Xīn Fēi, your time is over," Mùchén declared, his voice reverberating through the darkened chamber. "Prepare for the end."

As the first volley of energy blasts erupted, Mùchén charged forward, his every move a testament to the countless hours of training and preparation. The final battle had begun, and the fate of countless lives hinged on this decisive confrontation.
