Devouring Stars: Master of Evolution

Chapter 277 I came here to take over the battlefield

The granting of permissions ended quickly. Of the 12 leaders of the cosmic army, 10 were immortal military lords, one of whom was a marquis-level immortal.

Qin Mu is the only one who has been evaluated as having the combat power to be crowned a king.

"Hello, I am King Jinghong. You are the first World Lord-level expert I have met on the planet of the flying birds who possesses the combat power of a King."

The immortal god who was in charge of granting authority to the leaders of the cosmic armies smiled and flew to a spot slightly below Qin Mu's line of sight.

Although both were at the King-level combat strength level, King Jinghong was very polite because he clearly understood what it meant to possess King-level combat strength during the Realm Lord era.

There are similar top geniuses among the human race, but they are extremely rare.

So few that each one could be considered a top-tier genius.

For example, Kodi is at the peak of the Realm Lord level, comparable to a King-level Immortal, and can kill a Marquis-level Immortal.

Once you step onto the battlefield, you will definitely be targeted by the alien race.

Such a person, once they become immortal, can quickly become the most powerful being among the immortals.

As a powerful figure who had been granted the title of King, King Jinghong understood that the difference between those who had been granted the title of King was sometimes greater than the difference between a human and a dog.

"Hello, you can call me Tyrant."

Qin Mu nodded.

"Tyrant, your strength is undeniable, but I still want to remind you that once you enter the battlefield, you will likely be targeted by powerful alien races very quickly!"

After hesitating for a moment, King Jinghong finally spoke his mind.

"On the battlefield outside the domain, the Zerg, the Machine Race, and the Demon Race joined forces to deal with humanity, aiming to stifle human geniuses."

A top genius like you would probably be hunted down by a large number of powerful figures who have reached the rank of King.

Not only you, but all your clansmen, even the most outstanding geniuses, are targets for assassination.

Although the planet of the bird is a human logistics base, the granting of such authority is a semi-public matter that could not be kept secret from the alien intelligence agencies.

This is why most of humanity's top geniuses choose to hide their identities when entering the extraterrestrial battlefield, fearing that they might be targeted and assassinated by alien races before they have even grown up.

"I understand! But we came to the battlefield to participate in the bloodiest and most intense war!"

"Let the foreign races come and kill me!"

Qin Mu grinned.

Before coming to the extraterritorial battlefield, he had considered whether to conceal his identity as the tyrant's realm lord and pretend to be an immortal.

But Qin Mu quickly abandoned the idea.

Realm Lords do not possess immortal divine power. It's manageable for one or two to impersonate them, but how can hundreds of tyrants impersonate them?

Since we can't fake it, we might as well go all out.

With its combat power comparable to that of a King, and the venom of the Nether Serpent, which is even more potent than the Femo Venom, the Hive Tyrant is a formidable opponent for most alien Kings in a one-on-one fight.

The Hive Tyrant enters the battlefield alongside the Zerg swarm. As the top-tier node unit within the swarm, it can also invoke swarm attacks!

In the midst of billions of insect swarms, the Hive Tyrant unleashes a combined attack, which can severely injure even a peak or limit-level King, or even cause their demise.

With hundreds of tyrants in the swarm, even if a cosmic overlord were to arrive, it's uncertain who would die!

Even if the enemy is strong enough, it doesn't matter if a batch of Hive Tyrants are killed.

As long as the deaths were worthwhile, another batch can be hatched.

Perhaps if the war is intense enough, the Hive Tyrant will be able to evolve on its own and become even stronger.

"Even on the most violent battlefield, Behemoth will protect us."

Seeing the worried expression on King Jinghong's face, Qin Mu smiled.

"Behemoth? That enormous, unique life form?"

The image of that flesh-and-blood planet with a diameter of 100,000 kilometers flashed through Jinghong Wang's mind.

"Um!"

Qin Mu said.

The tyrant can still be forcibly called human because the definition of human in the original universe was very broad; anyone with a human form could be considered human.

However, beings of the Zerg Hive Fortress level would definitely be treated as special life forms if they appeared.

Behemoth is the name Qin Mu gave to the Zerg Hive Fortress.

"It's good that you're prepared. I'll be entering the extraterrestrial battlefield in a thousand years at most, and then I'll treat you to drinks!"

King Jinghong said nothing more; he was merely offering a reminder and trying to establish a good relationship.

……

The authorization ceremony for hundreds of thousands of space troops did not take too long under the scanning of the staff of the Bird Star.

After chatting with Qin Mu for a while, King Jinghong saw that the authorization had been completed and turned to look at everyone in the square.

"The authorization ceremony is now complete."

"Follow me, everyone. We'll teleport you all to the outer battlefield in a bit."

There were many soldiers involved in the war in the extraterritorial battlefields, totaling eleven battlefields.

All eleven battlefields are outside of human territory. As a cosmic army, you will be transported to different battlefields as needed.

Without wasting words, King Jinghong gave the order directly.

"Set off!"

Hundreds of thousands of soldiers marched forward, with Qin Mu and his twelve army leaders naturally at the forefront.

A moment later, they arrived at a huge hall, which was thousands of miles in diameter and contained 11 enormous spatial water curtain-like passages.

"This is the spatial passage to the first battlefield."

King Jinghong walked to one of the water curtains and said to Qin Mu.

"The first battlefield is a cosmic secret realm with a maximum diameter of about 150 million light-years."

After billions of years of slaughter, the danger of this cosmic secret realm itself has been weakened to the extreme. The main threat comes from alien enemies.

There are one hundred military bases in the first battlefield. You have now been teleported to base number 028.

Base 028 is the most fiercely contested area in the first battlefield. Tyrant, good luck.

This water curtain is 50 kilometers wide and 50 kilometers high.

Wow!

Qin Mu smiled and nodded, leading all 110 tyrants behind him into the room.

Accompanying Qin Mu was the black-armored immortal from the Thai-Golden Universe Kingdom, but at this moment he was too afraid to approach Qin Mu and call him brother again.

Using the divine kingdom as a transit station, Qin Mu and his group, along with tens of thousands of soldiers, arrived at that transit station, re-entered the spatial channel, and were then directly teleported to the No. 028 military base in the first battlefield outside the human territory.

……

As soon as Qin Mu stepped out of the divine kingdom transit station, he felt the space-time shift before his eyes, and he found himself in another place.

"Haha, the new recruits have arrived."

"Quick, quick, quick! New space troops have arrived! Our defenses are exhausted and we urgently need more manpower."

"Holy crap! What race is this? How can it be so big?!"

"Even a humanoid cosmic behemoth in its battle form isn't this exaggerated."

Shouts rang out one after another.

This is also a huge plaza, large enough to easily accommodate a million-strong cosmic army.

The hundreds of insect hive tyrants, each ten kilometers in size, immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Hundreds of soldiers in white armor stood guard in the square.

In addition, there are some people arranged here to wait for the new cosmic army entering the extraterrestrial battlefield, so that they can be recruited into their own camp as soon as possible.

Soon, an immortal exuding a powerful aura flew to Qin Mu and the others.

He shouted.

"New recruits, welcome to the first battlefield, '028' barracks. The leader of the space army, come with me to receive your mission."

The rest of you stay put and wait for the mission assignments before entering the battlefield with your leader.

Space armies are generally not disbanded; they are simply assigned to tasks such as garrisoning and defense.

Qin Mu didn't waste any words and flew out with the black armor of the Taijin Universe Kingdom.

"The immortal of the Taijin Universe Kingdom, go with him, and someone will arrange for you to be stationed in an area."

This immortal powerhouse clearly knew the detailed information about the arriving cosmic army, and pointed to a white-armored soldier waiting beside him.

He then immediately flew to Qin Mu's side.

"Your Majesty, the Heavenly King knows you've come and has instructed me to take you to the command center."

Qin Mu nodded, signaling the other party to lead the way.

moment.

The two arrived at a simply decorated palace. The palace was very large, and even Qin Mu could easily enter.

Inside the palace, people came and went, each one of whom was at least an immortal being.

Qin Mu's appearance surprised many people, but after all, they were all immortal powerhouses, and each had their own affairs.

After glancing at it out of curiosity, I went about my own business.

More and more races are joining the extraterrestrial battlefield, and giant star beasts with body lengths of thousands of kilometers are appearing in large numbers. Since no one knows Qin Mu's strength, no one cares too much about anything.

……

Inside the palace hall, an immortal powerhouse, over ten meters tall and covered in golden scales, sat opposite Qin Mu.

"I am the supreme commander of Base 028. You may call me the Azure King."

The golden scales, like immortal thunder, echoed throughout the hall.

"King of the Azure Sky, you may call me a tyrant."

Qin Mu responded.

"Tyrant, you should know that Base 028 is the most dangerous battlefield in the First Battlefield."

Countless powerful individuals die here every day; not long ago, a King-level expert perished in Base 028.

I requested support from higher-ups, but I never expected they would send a genius like you.

The Heavenly King's tone was not calm; in fact, it was somewhat angry.

As a top-tier expert among the King-level powerhouses and a disciple of a Universe Lord in the Giant Axe Arena, he didn't care whether Qin Mu had any powerful background.

In his view, Qin Mu might be some kind of powerful special life form, whose strength could rival that of a King-level Immortal.

The Zeg clan has over a hundred members, each possessing the combat strength to be granted the rank of Marquis.

This is indeed an extremely powerful force.

But compared to that, he would prefer an ordinary king-level expert leading a normal army of a cosmic nation.

Base 028 was already under immense pressure, not only as a strategic location on the front lines, but also as one of the most prominent bases on those fronts.

The base was surrounded by countless Zerg, Mech, and Demon races.

Large-scale wars break out every day.

Those Zerg queens, the machine race used the resources provided by the demon race to hatch a massive number of Zerg warriors and mechanical golems.

Once Qin Mu and his group of top geniuses appear on the battlefield, they will definitely attract more enemies.

He wouldn't be surprised if dozens of alien king-level experts were mobilized.

Because if such a top genius appeared on the battlefields outside the domains of the other three races, he would do the same!

A top genius's military achievements among alien races are comparable to those of an invincible king.

If I can't kill the invincible king, I can at least kill you, right?

Hiding one's identity and developing stealthily is fine, but to show up so openly is just courting death.

What the Heavenly King needs is support, not to be targeted!

If so many top-tier experts were to appear, even the Heavenly King wouldn't dare say he could protect Qin Mu.

Besides, he doesn't want to be a nanny!

Base 028, as the top-tier AAA-level divine base of humanity on the extraterrestrial battlefield, is normally indestructible even by powerful beings like the rulers of cosmic kingdoms.

But if too many powerful kings gather here, and the enemy manages to breach the defenses, then things will get really messy.

Sensing the anger in the Heavenly King's tone, Qin Mu instantly understood the reason.

"I understand your concerns. But since I dared to come and not hide my identity, I must have something to rely on."

Qin Mu said calmly.

"We've already reached the battlefield beyond our borders, so there's no need for me to hide anything."

"I'm here to attract powerful alien races, the more the better, and the stronger the better!"

I came here to end the situation where humanity is besieged and can only rely on bases for defense.

I'm here to take over the battlefield!

The Heavenly King also calmed down.

"On what grounds?"

Qin Mu smiled.

"Because I brought Behemoth! Because I brought an army of billions of Zerg!"
