Voyage of the Stars.

Chapter 1395 The String Plucker

The human civilization warships present were all mind-linked warships, and not only did they possess a third-person driving mode, but they were also equipped with the most powerful conventional technologies of the Pudorad civilization.

The combination of the two results in a product with maximum offensive, defensive, and evasive attributes.

Even when facing the rapid maneuverability of advanced boundary breakers, it can dodge and even fire in anticipation while dodging, shattering the advanced boundary breakers with a single shot. The effect is as if the advanced boundary breakers themselves have been attached to the space weapon.

What terrifies the advanced World Breakers even more is that even if they rely on their speed advantage to concentrate many World Breakers for a large-scale attack, the human warships that they cannot dodge can still block it with their own directional shields.

The battle has been going on for decades, and our side hasn't destroyed a single warship of human civilization. On the contrary, many armies have been wiped out time and time again by the Lyra because they are concentrated in one place.

Previously, the Breakers thought that the human fleet was only powerful when the Daya existed, but they never expected that these warships didn't need the Daya at all, but rather that the Daya needed them.

Lyra was even more terrifyingly powerful. The Breaker commander who once shouted the slogan to destroy Lyra had stopped shouting it because he had no idea how to deal with Lyra.

A single Boundary Breaker is no match for the enemy; they prefer groups of Boundary Breakers. What makes Boundary Breaker commanders most desperate is that they can't even hit them.

Faced with the human civilization fleet, only the fastest advanced boundary breakers could engage them for a while. Other boundary breakers could only be crushed, or they could only use their speed to create distance and watch from afar, but even after creating distance, they still couldn't hit the other side.

If the Breakers were like this, their lackeys' fleets were even more pathetic. Faced with 40 billion warships of human civilization, those civilizations' warships were completely crushed.

So far in the battle, the only respectable achievement is killing warships from civilizations outside of human civilization.

The Breaker Commander hadn't expected that, despite deploying his elite forces and outnumbering the enemy tenfold, the battle would end like this. The longer the fighting continued, the more confused he became, because he realized that his numerical advantage in this battle was not tenfold, but much greater.

He had noticed this soon after the battle began, but he was unwilling to admit it: apart from human civilization, the warships of other civilizations were almost entirely mediocre. In other words, human civilization was almost single-handedly fighting against all of its own forces.

Especially when the commander of the Breakers saw the Lyra's majestic figure, which resembled a king of the battlefield, he even suspected that the flagship possessed the technology of a level seven civilization.

It's incredibly powerful, far exceeding the Breaker Commander's previous understanding of a Level 6 civilization flagship.

"What sins have I committed to deserve this? Why did I have to choose to face these demons on two separate battlefields?" The Breaker commander couldn't help but shout in his heart as he watched the Lyra once again unleash a quantum banishment strike that wiped out an entire area.

For decades, the entire star battlefield has focused its attention on the Lyra, which is the master of the battlefield, a reaper of warships and boundary breakers, and its presence has brought utter chaos and destruction wherever it goes.

"Although I hate to admit it, I'm afraid this battle is unlikely to be won. I hope things will be better on the other battlefields." The more he looked, the more alarmed he became. The commander of the Breakers seemed to have already seen his own end.

He was also mentally prepared to die on the battlefield.

The commander of the Breakers could tell that their high-level Breakers had been terrified by the Lyra, and if they hadn't been ordered to flee, they would have turned tail and run long ago.

Now, all they can do is fight desperately. The mindset of each advanced boundary breaker is different from when the war began. Initially, they genuinely wanted to destroy the Lyra, but after several years of fighting, they realized this goal seemed unrealistic. So they settled for destroying the human civilization fleet. Now, they feel that's also unrealistic, and the advanced boundary breakers' goal has become to take a few down with them before they die. They really don't want to fight the human civilization fleet anymore; the feeling that no matter how hard they try, it's futile makes them feel like they're just committing suicide.

Some ancient, high-level boundary breakers even wondered why they hadn't encountered a leader like human civilization back then, otherwise they might not have become boundary breakers.

But is there really hope in the vast voyage and the void?
Why don't we suggest to the commander that we beg the human civilization not to exterminate us after we succeed?
But is this realistic?
Why bother stopping these great voyages? Wouldn't it be better to live in peace? We can live our lives, they can go to their great caverns, and we can keep to ourselves. Why fight?

Seeing the situation deteriorating, some advanced boundary breakers gradually developed ideas they had never had before, but their ideas soon disappeared into a certain microscopic world.

The hostile relationship between the two forces will not change because of the will of one or a few high-level boundary breakers. The war has already reached this point, so naturally it will not stop just because a boundary breaker shouts "Everyone, stop fighting!"

In the 1730th year since the start of the battle, it has finally come to an end, with human civilization emerging victorious.

Because only the human civilization's fleet remained on the battlefield, while the fleets of the other 29 civilizations under the organization were almost completely annihilated. The Breakers were terrified by the human civilization fleet, because after the middle of the battle, it was basically the human civilization fleet fighting the entire Breaker army and its henchmen fleet alone.

The Breakers' side, consisting of 300 billion Breakers and 600 billion henchman warships, was almost completely wiped out in the battle. It was only at the very end, when the Breakers' commander was killed, that the Breakers who took over command, seeing that the situation was hopeless, issued the order to retreat. Otherwise, they could have been completely annihilated by human civilization.

The number of those who escaped was only two or three hundred million. They fled in all directions, relying on their speed advantage. Otherwise, they might have been taken down in one fell swoop by a few teleports from the Lyra.

In the battle against the fleet led by human civilization, the Boundary Breakers suffered a complete defeat. It was this battle that made the Boundary Breakers more aware of the power of the Lyra. At the same time, through long-term observation, they discovered some of the Lyra's attack methods and finally confirmed them as a unique technology related to superstrings.

Perhaps for this reason, after this battle, human civilization received a new name from the Breakers: the String Piercers!
"The power of the string pluckers has exceeded our imagination. They only need to gently pluck those ethereal strings, and we will be reduced to ashes!"

"With the string players around, we can't defeat them!"

"Faced with a string player, all we can do is run as far away as possible before they start plucking the strings!"

"We shouldn't provoke the string players, because that would be suicide."

"The String Pickers just want to get to the Great Void through the Stargate. Why should we stop them? Let the Void kill them. We shouldn't hinder the String Pickers."

As human civilization triumphed in the battle, the name of human civilization and the Lyra spread rapidly among the boundary breakers, who also bestowed upon humanity the title of "string players."

This title even spread from the Breakers to their lackey civilization during the subsequent wars, and then back to the three major expeditionary organizations: the Galaxy, the Abyss, and the Blue Ocean.

Thus, the string plectrum became another name for human civilization.
