_______________________________________________________________
A giant turtle leisurely wandered around a star. It was looking at a black spot on the star's surface. That long black spot is Fang Yun. He has been asleep for more than 50 years, but he hasn't woken up yet.
As usual, after looking at Fang Yun for a while, the giant turtle was planning to leave and search for food alone.
As it continues to grow in size, it needs more and more food. It's completely different from Fang Yun. Apart from gathering bio-energy and satisfying his taste, Fang Yun doesn't need to eat a lot. He can easily remain active for years without food.
He mostly relies on absorbing radiation and heat to remain active.
The giant turtle on the other hand needs to eat because of its physiological conditions.
If it doesn't consume enough food, it cannot maintain its body activity.
Now that Fang Yun is evolving, he is in a particularly weak state. His big brother, Fang Yun, was the one that always protected him, no that he is in a weak state, it's his turn to protect him.
After rotating around the star, the giant turtle didn't perceive any danger and was ready to leave. Unexpectedly, at this moment, it suddenly froze.
In a very distant space opposite of the giant star, two fleets were quickly moving forward.
The two giant fleets were the fleets of the sixth and fifth heaven.
The two fleets remained in the seventh heaven during the past period. Looking for the traces of the great serpent and the giant turtle.
They have sent the tissues of the great serpent back to their heaven a long time ago. It's said that those body tissues have provided great help to the biomechanical technology of the two heavens.
Later, the two heavens gave special orders to Byrne and Hua Rong. They must find the great serpent and giant turtle, then either bring their bodies back or capture them.
Unfortunately, they have been searching for 50 years without any gain.
"Where did that monster go?"
In the control center of the fifth heaven's command ship, Hua Rong rubbed his forehead. The higher-ups have been constantly pressing him
The constant inquiries from those leaders and government officials gave him a lot of pressure. Especially amongst those people, there are the elders and even the patriarch of the Hua family.
"Hey, For more than 50 years, we didn't find even a shadow. This is really weird. It doesn't fit the style of that creature at all!"
Hua Rong wondered internally. A behemoth like the great serpent has a great need for food, and according to their investigation, its main food is rocky planets.
The turmoil caused while eating is too big. There are often many energy and magnetic fluctuations left behind each time after eating.
Whether it's the planets' disappearance or the energy and magnetic fluctuations, they are inevitable traces left by the great serpent, but these things completely disappeared 50 years ago.
The giant serpent and the giant turtle seemed to disappear from this heaven.
"Commander Hua Rong, have you found anything on your side?"
Byrne sent another routine message. He was asking about the situation, to which Hua Rong replied,
"Byrne, it seems that there is no trace of the great serpent here, let's change the position."
They have been wandering in this area for a long time, but they have never found a trace of the giant serpent. After all, if the serpent appeared in this location, as long as it eats, they will definitely receive some signals. The movements that result due to the destruction of a planet aren't easy to hide.
"Okay."
Byrne didn't have any objections. He also felt that Hua Rong was right. Both of them nodded. Just as Hua Rong was about to change directions, his expression suddenly changed.
"What's the matter?"
"Oum! Oum! Oum!"
A harsh siren suddenly sounded in the control center. A soldier ran towards Hua Rong and said.
"Commander, We found that a creature is rushing towards us."
"Creature? What kind of creature?" Hua Rong frowned.
"A giant turtle." the soldier said with a weird expression on his face.
"A giant turtle?"
Hua Rong looked particularly surprised. After hesitating for a moment, he expectantly asked.
"Is it the giant turtle that accompanies the great serpent?"
"It's very similar, but we're not certain yet." The soldier said.
"Okay, continue to observe it and prepare for battle"
After giving an order, Hua Rong quickly said to Byrne,
"Commander Byrne, we found a giant turtle that is suspected to be the companion of the great serpent. I need your support immediately."
"You found the giant turtle?"
Byrne also had a suspicious and excited expression. He took a deep breath, suppressing his agitated emotions, and said.
"Okay, I will lead the fleet over."
The two fleets soon gathered together, then watched the incoming giant turtle.
This turtle is huge. Of course, compared to the giant serpent they've seen before, the giant turtle is much smaller, but its visual impact isn't weak at all.
"What does this giant turtle want to do?"
Hua Rong frowned. He really couldn't guess the intentions of this creature.
By now, everyone was sure that the incoming turtle is the one that always accompanied the great serpent.
For some reason, this giant turtle is aggressively rushing towards them, but the giant serpent isn't next to its side. However, Hua Rong and Byrne guessed that the serpent should be in this area.
This might be the new assault strategy of these two creatures.
"What to do, Commander Hua Rong?"
With a slight excitement in his tone, Byrne asked Hua Rong.
Hua Rong wasn't sure either,
"First, let's use a small group of troops to conduct a tentative attack on that giant turtle. We must gauge their plan first before moving to the next action."
"The rest of us will guard against the sudden attack of the giant serpent."
According to Hua Rong's cognition and experience, The IQs of these two creatures are very high.
In fact, Fang Yun is the only one with a high IQ. The giant turtle is certainly a behemoth with a high level of strength, but it's not a pollutant.
Unfortunately, IQ has been growing rather slowly, and up to now, it can only have some simple exchanges with Fang Yun. It's unable to accurately express its inner thought or convey a complicated message.
This time, the giant turtle suddenly rushed over here because of his insufficient IQ, and also because of its worry for Fang Yun and hatred for these two fleets.
The two fleets were planning to leave. Unfortunately, the giant turtle misunderstood that the two fleets have mastered their location, hence it hurriedly rushed over to intercept them.
