Chapter 362 Silent Empire
"The 'Stalker of Tranquility' is an old guy among us. This maverick general once quietly left civilization with a small fleet, and no one could find him. Makes one think he's surrendering to their old foe who likes to 'look'."
"But one day later, the old general returned to civilization with an unimaginably huge energy, and used a recorder that recorded his experience during his absence to prove everything he did."
"He brought a small fleet of no more than twenty people, not even a "scout" in civilization, to destroy a developed galaxy, and brought back the energy there to enhance his merits."
"'You want to use energy to buy me? Don't you know that your actions will almost certainly lead to a court-martial? This is an insult to my personality!'"
"—I wanted to reprimand him like this, but he gave too much."
"So he is now one of us, and has fought countless star fields together..."
"However, recently, he seems to have some troubles. It is said that he has already submitted an application for 'title change'. Although we don't pay much attention to this, it is an honor after all, and it cannot be easily changed."
"And what is the name after the change...'Silent Stalker'? He really put everything he wanted to do on the surface..."
The recorder of the diary rides in his car, shuttles leisurely in the interstellar space where light beams of various colors are constantly flashing, and ignores the pursuers behind him and the artillery fire passing by, as if he is fighting alone in such a dangerous place It is not him who seems to be in danger of dying at any time.
At this time, a small beam of light with a tricky angle suddenly shot from a hidden corner, directly hitting the key parts of his car.
But the pilot who was still writing the diary just now had his eyes fixed, as if he was a little surprised by the attack, which finally made him stop writing the diary and began to seriously operate the launch ship.
His car then dodged the incoming beam at a completely impossible angle, attacking simultaneously in the process.
The secret spaceship that attacked him just now also avoided his attack, and then fought with him. After a while, it was impossible to tell the winner.
This long-lost situation made the diary recorder ignite his blood. After being lazy in this galaxy for so long, it was the first time that an enemy could fight him.
In the past, all the people I encountered either avoided him when they met, or didn’t do any maneuvers, and directly attacked him in a suicidal manner, and then he was destroyed by him boringly.
He hates this feeling of "killing ants". He hopes that his prey can struggle more, and it is even better to "bite" him, so that he can feel the almost extinct "bloodthirsty impulse".
Having been trapped here for so long, he almost forgot the feeling of "hunting".
Now that he met such a person who dared to fight with him, he couldn't bear to kill him for a while, and he wanted to "play" longer.
For this reason, he has already begun to think about how to just "defeat" the opponent instead of destroying the spaceship. He thinks that it may be a good way to accurately attack the power system of the opponent's spaceship.
This not only can show the strength gap between him and the opponent to the fullest, but it is also a good way to humiliate the opponent without killing the opponent.
So after another fight, he accurately hit the power system of the spaceship with slightly better technology.
Seeing that the spaceship was already shaking and its speed was dropping sharply, and it was about to make an emergency landing on a planet, he couldn't help feeling proud:
"... As expected, I am still the strongest. Even if I am the strongest among these people, I am still defeated by me..."
However, just when he was so complacent, the crumbling spaceship suddenly returned to its normal speed, as if there was nothing directly affected.
Not only that, but the other party came straight towards his spaceship, looking as if he was going to die with him.
At this time, his spaceship had to approach a very close position through some maneuvers in order to hit the opponent's "power system" before, and it was already unable to avoid the collision.
And at this time, he realized through his superb eyesight that the destroyed one was not the "power system" at all, but the fire control system, so it's no wonder why the opponent didn't launch another attack, but chose the primitive method of "collision" .
But he was inconceivable about this, because he had been fighting with these guys for so long, and he already had a good understanding of their spaceship layout, and it was impossible for the fire control system to be in this position.
This is a series of insults, he knows the language of this civilization, so he can understand it:
"You X-day alien scum! I've been waiting for this day for a long time! Go to hell!!"
Afterwards, the opponent's spaceship collided with his vehicle, and a burst of dazzling light burst out.
The power of this explosion has far exceeded the self-destruct power of ordinary spaceships. Obviously, there is something else on this spaceship that amplifies the power of the explosion, and the purpose is to let him die in this explosion due to negligence.
He finally realized that he had been deceived, and the so-called "meeting opponents and sympathizing with each other" was just his wishful thinking. The other party did not hesitate to fake the falsehood to lie to him and kill him, which made him extremely angry.
…Why is he still alive? There is no reason, because the performance of his spaceship is really good, far better than any of the most advanced spaceships of the opponent, this level of explosion can not even break the defense of the spaceship.
In the past, he didn't want to use performance to crush his opponent, because he thought this kind of "hunting" was boring, but this time he miscalculated.
He had to admit that if they had used the same ship, he would be dead by now.
"...I wanted to get along with you as ordinary people..." His eyes suddenly turned cold, and he glanced at the enemies who were still trying to attack him. He seemed a little annoyed, and then directly destroyed them with an unimaginable weapon. All the ships he saw.
A series of explosions occurred one after another in this galaxy, and finally fell silent. Except for a large spaceship wreckage, only his car was still wandering in the galaxy.
"...Is this enough? There will be no more witnesses around here, and other 'stalkers' will not know what happened here. My 'legend' is still continuing..."
He was talking to himself like this, and then took out his diary again, and recorded on it "On XX, XX, XX, 3,712 enemy ships were attacked, and they were attacked..."
When he wrote this, he hesitated for a moment, and then he wrote "Number of hits: zero" unswervingly.
"...This is inevitable, I am the 'Legendary Hunter', and my car is the best-performing 'Stalker Battleship', of course it is impossible to be attacked..."
Afterwards, he closed the diary, and only then did the full picture of the "diary" appear.
It turns out that this is not a "diary", but a draft of his autobiography - "I Am Legend".
The nameplate next to the draft shows his identity. He is one of the top stalkers in their civilization—the legendary stalker.
At this time, a communication was sent to his spaceship, and the source indicated that it was other "stalkers".
The content of the communication is also very brief, which reads: "Encounter the 'Silencer' fleet, come quickly."
Seeing this, the "Legendary Stalker" boarded his spaceship without hesitation, and disappeared into the galaxy in the blink of an eye.
Not long after, a transparent battleship that seemed to be made of pure energy slowly emerged in the galaxy.
It seems to have been there from the beginning, it's just that "Legend Stalker" didn't find it.
An energy body life that seems to have intelligence floated out of the spaceship. He searched the galaxy full of wreckage, and finally found it at the place where the "Legendary Stalker" collided with another battleship and exploded. A piece of meat.
This piece of meat is still alive at this time, tenaciously absorbing cosmic radiation, trying hard to grow back to its original appearance.
The energy body returned to the spaceship after finding the piece of meat, and slowly disappeared together with the spaceship.
If the owner of the piece of meat—the ace pilot from the "Exile" still has the original consciousness, he will be shocked to see this spaceship.
Because this is a mysterious civilization that is also fighting the "Hunter" in the galaxy.
They have no communication with the outside world and have always remained silent. The only thing they will do is to fight against the "hunter".
In view of this characteristic, they called this civilization—the Silent Empire.
