Chapter 390: Surge of Dark Energy
A day and a half later, Nash managed to connect all one hundred million spiral behemoths to the [Weapon Control Module System].
“Haha, it’s done!”
Laughing happily, Nash waved his hands, and all the spiral behemoths moved into formation like a battalion ready for battle.
“This—”
“H-how could you control them so quickly, Commander?”
Having been with the Star Alliance for a long time, most still knew a thing or two about Nash’s ability.
It seemed to be some creation-type genetic ability that could generate, control, and study objects.
Although it was unique and extraordinary, it still had limits.
Yet right before their eyes, just after walking past the hundreds of millions of spiral behemoths, Nash was able to control them with a wave of his hand.
“This is normal operation. Since I asked you to build them, I naturally have the confidence to control them.” Nash smiled.
“Then—should we build more?” they asked eagerly.
If Nash could control more spiral behemoths, the strength of the Star Alliance would be even greater.
“No need. You’re busy enough. These should be sufficient for now.” Nash shook his head.
From training to finding equipment to mining, building these spiral behemoths that were about to be decommissioned was a waste of time and resources.
If not for his urgent need and lack of alternatives, he wouldn’t want to waste precious manpower on this.
Having finished incorporating the spiral behemoths into the [Weapon Control Module System], Nash walked toward the neatly arranged tier 4 war weapons.
Activating the [Runic Analysis Module System], Nash examined their more complex runic structures.
Although he had already input most of the runic commands they contained, there were still many things left to analyze.
Despite their number not even reaching a million, Nash estimated he wouldn’t finish scanning them within a week or two.
“I’ll take everything here first. You can tell me when you need them.”
Not wanting to stay in the open for long, Nash planned to store them in his storage ring while he trained.
“You can do as you please, Commander. Anyway, we’re in a safe place.”
“That’s good.”
Storing all the war weapons, Nash continued to tour around the base.
From the mining site to the entertainment area, training area, storage area, workshops, research facilities, and the stronghold that was being constructed, he inspected everything.
—
A few days later, during his inspection, the dark disaster finally arrived.
Looking at the sky, which had turned red and then shifted into a dark purple, everyone in the uncharted zone felt their hearts quicken.
“It’s here, the dark disaster!”
With the changing color of the sky, the dark energy suddenly surged as the roars of dark beasts rang across the horizon.
“Prepare for defense.” Nash quickly ordered as he returned to his post.
Feeling the atmosphere, he knew they wouldn’t have an easy time.
Sure enough, as the dark energy in the atmosphere swayed chaotically, the concealment barrier of the Aura Mirage began to fluctuate.
Although it could still conceal them from a distance, the dark beasts that were close to the base had already gone into a rampage.
With their bodies boiling from the surge of energy, all dark beasts charged toward them in a frenzied attack.
Fortunately, having already been prepared, over a billion individuals and tier 5 war weapons quickly formed a defensive wall.
Blocking the tide of dark beasts at the first line, the area stabilized for a moment.
Meanwhile, as they continued to defend their position, the unmined tier 3 and 4 resource points began to burst outward, expanding as they increased in quality.
Blessed by the spike in dark energy, not only the dark beasts but all resources in the dark plane began to enhance.
Looking at the resource points soaring out of nothing, everyone in the Star Alliance couldn’t help but smile.
Although they were currently facing the siege of countless dark beasts, seeing the untapped wealth of their base increase, they felt they could manage.
“Let the storm come harder!”
If it could increase their foundation and wealth, they didn’t mind letting the dark energy surge higher.
“Don’t be so demanding. Any more and our lives would be at stake.”
“Haha, with the Commander behind us, what danger can’t we conquer?”
“That’s right. Let’s see if this dark disaster is worthy of all the preparation we made.”
“Come on, fight!”
Facing the rampaging dark beasts, they stood fearlessly.
At this moment, they felt they could face anything that came their way.

Meanwhile, watching atop Tsuka, Nash shook his head wryly.
“These guys are too careless.”
Although it seemed they were having an easy time, it was thanks to various external factors.
Just the three hundred million spiral behemoths that were smoothly controlling the pace of the battle could already bring the intensity up by a notch.
Coupled with the two shelter treasures they possessed, shielding them from harm and prying eyes, if they still struggled, then every other team would be on the verge of breakdown.
Furthermore, if this surge of dark energy continued to increase, tier 6 dark beasts might be born.
“Calm down. Nothing should happen…” Nash patted his chest, staying alert.
—
Meanwhile, in other parts of the uncharted zone, other cosmic teams were not having an easy time like the Star Alliance.
Faced with the sudden surge of dark beasts, their defenses quickly broke down.
Those lone tier 3 shelters without any alliance quickly fell, while all the others teetered on the verge of collapse.
At this time, the importance of alliances began to become apparent, as a single team couldn’t protect itself.
Without at least an alliance of five cosmic teams, even a tier 4 shelter would struggle just to survive.
Although most already knew the danger, they had only read about it.
Complacent, many still hadn’t formed a group with anyone.
Wailing in despair, they could only go to the Shelter forum and plead for help.
Seeking salvation, they scrolled through the forum, desperate for any lifeline.
Fortunately, fate already had a plan for them.
At this moment, the great teams and top alliances had already opened their arms, broadcasting their coordinates to everyone.
“I found it! I found the closest stronghold to us, the Star Alliance! They’re close!”
“Hope is here. Hold on…”
