Wooong chic chic

The power returned to Valen within just 0.1 seconds. Fortunately we had learned from the previous mistakes and set up some fail safes.

“What is the result?”


“40% of their facilities have been destroyed, and their planetary shield is down.They have scrambled a fleet of ships to intercept us and are hailing us on over a million channels.”

“Good, open a line it’s time to negotiate.”

—-Boop!

A hologram appeared on the bridge.

“Who are you  and why have you attacked us?”

The Rohim representative spoke out in embarrassment, his skin a shiny gray color and only a single large black eye.

“I am Johra, the Avenger of humanity which you have pushed to near extinction. I am here to collect the debt for your actions.”

“What are you talking about? We are peaceful beings which have for eons watched, protected and nurtured all life across the universe.”

“Are you now denying that you killed humankind and all life on my home planet?”

“Of course, we have never committed such an act, how could you claim we’ve done such a thing?”

“How noisy… show them the evidence.”

“Transfer complete.”

“Wha…what? Why have the priests done this?”

“Have you properly confirmed your actions? Just know before your deaths the your miscalculation was me! Prepare the Extinction gun.”

“This can’t be, we are the protectors of life across the universe! This must be a misunderstanding!”

“Divert all power to begin charging the weapon, begin the activation sequence.”

“Johra please don’t do this, we were also deceived. We didn’t intervene because the God’s servants perceived your race’s demise as a natural disaster. Please spare us and we will deliver you the priests responsible for this!”

“Shut up! Where was humanity’s chance to be spared?”

‘Too cool!’

Just as I heard Gnoss’s compliment through our telepathy, we detected a massive projectile coming our way, originating from planet Asgard.

“Johra that’s the enemy’s fire.”

“Can we withstand it?”

“If we are hit there is a 70% chance of sustaining critical damage.”

“Got it, then take evasive action.”

“Launching the teleport circle in 3 seconds.”

Teleport teleport teleport

Valen easily dodged the projectile by teleporting away, while their fleet continued to close in to engage.

“Continue to divert all power to charging the Extinction.”

“Zaira, it’s time to shoot!”

I urged Zaira to shoot as soon as possible.

“Target is locked.”

The gun’s trajectory appeared on my display screen.

“Charging is at 94%”

The charging gauge appeared before me.
