Chapter 161: Caterpillar Fungus Mythical Lifeform

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The sudden excitement of the ‘Galaxy Community’ rekindled the hope of many civilizations in the Milky Way who were unwilling to accept asylum.

Even though the ‘Observer,’ the predecessor of the ‘Benevolent Host,’ had always had a good reputation, and the pressure from the panic of the people within the civilization was great, those civilizations still found it difficult to accept the transfer of the entire civilization to the ‘Benevolent Host.’

Unlike the easily influenced people, the higher-ups of the civilized government knew more and were more rational.

The request of the ‘Benevolent Host’ was undoubtedly asking them to hand over their life-and-death rights to an alien civilization. That situation was completely different from becoming a va.s.sal.

Even if the lost empire used all sorts of reasons to explain the seriousness of the situation and the necessity of that move, they would never make such a decision so rashly.

Which species didn’t stand at the top of the food chain through brutal battles? How could a civilization made up of such species give up its dominance over itself so easily?

Therefore, an unexpected situation occurred. Currently, only a small portion of the civilizations had accepted the protection of the ‘Benevolent Host,’ which was less than 10% of the total number of civilizations in the Milky Way.

Although the ‘cremation threat’ from the ‘Benevolent Host’ was still counting down, there was still some time before it really came.

During that period, those civilizations continued to try to fight against the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ until they confirmed that they could not do it.

On the mother planet of the ‘Benevolent Observer,’ the higher-ups of the civilization were also dissatisfied with the current situation in the Milky Way.

“…It isn’t very effective. It’s far from the number we expected. The few with the largest population didn’t come, which is undoubtedly not conducive to ’embracing reality.’”

“Why is this so? Our calculations shouldn’t have produced such a large error. Is it because of…the ‘Galaxy Community’? It’s unbelievable…”

The number of species that had reached the ‘Shelter’ was far lower than the ■Benevolent Observer’s’ expectations.

Originally, they thought that after their ‘warning’ and the threat of those ‘corpse civilizations,’ they should have s.h.i.+elded at least 50% of the civilizations in the Milky Way.

“Caterpillar fungus disease? What an apt name. 1 didn’t expect them to discover the nature of the corpses so quickly. This may be one of the reasons for the error. Who discovered it?”

With that question, a young civilization called the ‘Pyro Alliance’ appeared in the eyes of the pioneers of the lost empire.

“Pyro Alliance? This name sounds familiar. We seem to have funded them to build a Nature Reserve?”

“…I still remember the reverence on the faces of these young people when they saw us. They are very similar to us in the past, who would promote the natives and protect natural animals.”

“Naive and foolish. This is another group of pitiful people who have been deceived by ‘falsehood.’ If possible, I want to bring them along to ’embrace the truth.’”

That pioneer’s compa.s.sionate words seemed to have infected the others there, and they all fell into the feeling of ‘everyone is drunk, and I’m the only one who’s sober.’”

Soon, the leader of those people suggested, “In that case, we can only speed up. Otherwise, there will be more and more variables. It will be very troublesome to deal with them by then.”

“The meeting ends here. May the real ‘truth’ embrace you and me…”

Not long after the Milky Way civilizations regained their spirits, the ravages of the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ became more rampant.

The red patches belonging to the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ in the star map were much larger than before, and it was inevitable that they had a direct conflict with the civilizations.

However, those well-prepared civilizations formed a temporary federation. Before the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ spread to their borders, they formed an alliance fleet and started a war with the ‘Caterpillar Fungus Lifeform Fleet’ in a planetary fortress that was built in advance.

The resistance went smoothly at first. After learning that the ‘moving corpses’ were parasitic fungi, several kinds of biological weapons were developed to target fungi specifically.

Even though the ‘Caterpillar Fungus Lifeform Fleet’ that relied solely on their physical bodies, without s.h.i.+elds and armor, were fearless, they suffered heavy losses under the targeted attacks.

Some even lost their combat ability after taking a missile that did not hurt them. The reason was that a virus that destroyed the biological structure of fungal lifeforms was injected into the corpse during the missile explosion, causing the internal fungi to die completely.

Looking at the gradually optimistic battle situation, those civilizations thought they could stop the spread of the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ there.

But soon, they realized they were wrong.

“Second Fleet Commander, where is your motherf.u.c.ker’s battle formation? Why aren’t you firing?”

“Cover the fleet and listen to my orders! Deflect the particle spear 5 degrees to the left!”

The Commander-in-Chief of the alliance fleet was currently commanding the fleet in the interstellar s.p.a.ce fortress, and his face was filled with excitement.

It was difficult to carry out his orders on the chaotic battlefield, but he was still happily shouting in the command room and pointing at the battlefield map.

He saw the dawn of victory in that battle and was excited that his name was about to go down in history. Even his body could not help but tremble.

If they were able to achieve a great victory against the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ under his command, then there would be a line in the history of the Milky Way in the future:

“Commander-in-Chief x.x.x of the alliance fleet from XX civilization had won the battle against the ‘caterpillar fungus disease’ in XX galaxy. That was a historic victory. It marked the beginning of a new era…”

Even though his name would only be mentioned once, that was a mention among countless civilizations and species in the entire Milky Way. It was enough to add a thick and colorful stroke to his resume.

However, just as he was still holding great hope for the future, the news of the heavy losses from the front line suddenly woke him up, and he looked at the battle report that had been sent back.

“That is…” Looking at the video recording sent back by the frontline battles.h.i.+p before it exploded, the alliance fleet commander’s pupils constricted.

In the picture was an unimaginably huge s.p.a.ce lifeform.

It had been dead for a long time, and the terrifying tear from some explosion on its huge umbrella-shaped head could still be seen.

The ‘corpse’ that was supposed to float quietly in s.p.a.ce was now waving its huge tentacles and tearing the battles.h.i.+p apart like a toy.

The alloy armor was twisted at will under the power of the giant tentacles. The particle spear, which was regarded as a great killing weapon, only burned a layer of black smoke when it hit its thick biological sh.e.l.l.

“That’s the Mother s.p.a.ce Whale! They resurrected their Mother-” Before a soldier at the front line could finish with his horrified voice, it fell into a dead silence in the next second. Only the tooth-aching squeezing sound still echoed.

The Mother s.p.a.ce Whale was a ‘mythical lifeform’ in the Milky Way.

She was much larger than an ordinary s.p.a.ce whale. When she was first discovered, that giant lifeform could easily tear apart a fleet of more than a dozen battles.h.i.+ps.

It had been a long time since the discovery of the Mother s.p.a.ce Whale in the Milky Way, but today, the alliance fleet commander was fortunate enough to witness her glory.

That Mother s.p.a.ce Whale had died a long time ago, but her body was resurrected by those strange fungi.

Not only that, the fungi seemed to have modified her body. The current Mother s.p.a.ce Whale had a body that was much larger than the giant gas planet.

The face of the alliance fleet commander suddenly turned pale. He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

However, it wasn’t because of that Mother s.p.a.ce Whale, but because he saw more huge lifeforms that weren’t inferior to her right behind her..
