The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 890: Reinforcement

After destroying the Red Tower’s headquarters, Aldrian returned to the base camp. He changed the plan for the troops that united with him, which was to let them rest for another one day. They would only continue their attacks after he took care of the Red Tower and after planning regarding Heserdolf’s location.

After Aldrian returned to the base camp, he walked toward his interstellar vessel and established a connection with the Dragon King’s interstellar vessel. At this moment, the Dragon King and Phoenix Queen, along with the troops from other powers from the Beast Continent, were in the middle of their journey to their next targets.

The moment they connected to Aldrian and saw his face through the screen, they immediately showed their respect with slightly lowered heads.

"Your majesty."

Aldrian nodded. "How are you and your troops doing? Is everything good?" he asked.

"There are not many problems, Your Majesty. Everything is still within plan, and at this moment, we are still on our journey to our next targets," the Dragon King answered.

Aldrian nodded. "Good, but I have to apologize because I have to change the plan for your targets at this moment. There is a development that will make our war in this world much shorter than we thought."

The Dragon King and Phoenix Queen raised their eyebrows in wonder, but they still nodded.

"What is the development, Your Majesty? If this could shorten the war, then it will be good," the Dragon King said.

"The location of the current leader of the devils, who replaced Xarz, has already been found, and his location appears to be nearest to you." Hearing that, the two royalties understood its significance, and they understood why Aldrian had to change the plan.

"I want you and your troops to attack Vurdulic City in the Carpian Continent. That city is where Heserdolf, the current leader, is building his command post. With him gone, the devils in this world will lose their direction, and we can deal with them much more effectively," Aldrian added.

"Could you do it? I think it will be quite a tough battle because Heserdolf is hiding there. As far as I know, there will be some strong powerhouses in that continent, and I suggest a surprise attack from space for a quick battle. I don’t want you to be besieged from many after you land in the middle of the continent."

The Dragon King and Phoenix Queen smiled when they heard that, and the Dragon King cupped his hand.

"We will succeed, Your Majesty. The next time we communicate, I will bring good news for you. Powerhouses in that continent? Well, I hope they can give good resistance, because until this moment, there is no one who can withstand my power," he said with full confidence.

"Your Majesty, we will surely bring good news to you. Those devils will have no chance against us," the Phoenix Queen also said with full confidence.

Aldrian smiled and nodded. "Alright, I’m glad you sound so confident and enthusiastic. Still, be careful. They might prepare something for you once you arrive there and Heserdolf is cornered."

"Yes, Your Majesty," the Dragon King and Phoenix Queen answered in unity.

"Also, regarding the assassins, I have already taken care of their headquarters. You don’t have to worry about assassins continuously coming. What you need to do is deal with the remaining assassins still out there disturbing your troops if they come to you," Aldrian continued.

"I have already obtained the whereabouts of some of these assassins, and I want you to spread this information to the other Beast Continent forces that are not with your groups. These assassins are hiding in some of their hideouts along the troops’ path." Aldrian then told them the names of the areas where the assassins were located. He only told the places near the Beast Continent forces.

"Alright, we will spread it, Your Majesty," the Dragon King said after Aldrian told them the whereabouts.

Aldrian nodded. "Alright, be careful on your mission. May you succeed," he said before he cut off the communication.

After communicating with the beasts, Aldrian also connected to the other forces of the Ancient Blue Gate World to tell them about the assassins’ matter. They were also targeted by the assassins, as the Red Tower used all their branches across the world to attack the alliance forces.

After Aldrian finished telling the others the information, he cut off the communication and walked out from the control room. For today, there was nothing special to do, so he decided to walk toward Angelica’s location.

He wanted to talk to her at this moment, or more specifically, he wanted to tease her.

He walked with a good mood and a smile on his face.

-------------------------------

Three days later, a group of forty-five interstellar vessels appeared from the wormhole near the space of the Red Mist Star. These were the devils’ reinforcements that came from the worlds that had not yet been attacked by the alliance forces.

The armada was led by a peak pseudo-immortal stage devil, and at this moment, this leader was inside the control room, looking at the Red Mist Star through the screen. The leader was a middle-aged man with black hair and a fierce expression.

From his expression, irritation was clear because of the bad news that kept coming from some of the worlds under attack from the cultivators of the Central Star Cluster. He just did not understand how that was possible when Rulleus had brought many of their troops into the Central Star Cluster.

Weren’t those cultivators supposed to stay in their own star cluster to help each other hold Rulleus’s invasion? Why were so many of them here, even invading their star cluster?

This was the first time in his life that cultivators from the Central Star Cluster invaded them, and it made him angry. How dare these bastards invade their headquarters with their puny strength?

As the leader continued observing the Red Mist Star, his eyes caught something on the screen. The thing that drew his attention was a lone figure that looked small on the display. The lone figure was positioned directly in the path of their armada toward the Red Mist Star.

The leader narrowed his eyes and ordered the operators to zoom in toward the lone figure. After the zoom, he finally saw clearly a young man with long red hair looking in his direction with his hands behind his back. His gaze was calm, as if the sight of the approaching armada did not impress him.

The leader frowned deeply. He did not know who this figure was, but judging from the strangeness of someone floating alone in space right in their path, he assumed the figure might be an enemy.

"Arzen, kill that man," the leader ordered the man beside him.

"Yes, my lord," Arzen answered before he walked out of the control room. The leader kept watching the figure, but then he froze when suddenly another figure appeared. He frowned again, because this second figure had the exact same face and attire as the first one.

It was as if they were identical twins.

He kept his focus on the twins when he suddenly saw the newcomer take out a sword and lift it as he pointed it upward. He wondered what this figure wanted to do, and then his eyes widened in shock as a blinding light shot out from the sword.

The blinding light then shaped itself into a giant golden pillar with a length so great that even he did not know how far it extended.

His danger sense triggered, sending goosebumps across his body, and he shouted toward the operators,

"Raise the barrier! Fall back! Don’t approach that man!"

But it was too late. He saw the figure swing his sword downward toward his direction.

Zmmm! Rumble! Boom! Rumble!

The leader’s interstellar vessel was instantly split into two like a hot knife cutting through butter. The vessel was destroyed on the spot, and the leader was killed instantly as he had no time to escape. He never expected the sword strike to be that fast.

The golden pillar did not stop as it swung in another direction toward the other vessels. The pillar swept through everything in its path, destroying any vessel it touched. All of them were easily cut apart, with explosions bursting from several vessels and killing everyone inside. Even the vessels that tried to escape suffered the same fate, swept away by the pillar. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

The pillar’s movement was fast, following the movement of the sword. It was as if the one using the sword technique did not feel any heaviness from this great technique and simply swung his sword with ease. He only swung in the direction of the vessels, and they were instantly cut apart.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Explosions trembled through space as all of the vessels were destroyed, killing most of the devils inside. There were some who used their talismans to escape, and they shot in the opposite direction, flying farther away from the Red Mist Star. But they were also swept away by the golden pillar, obliterating their existence.

The once silent space suddenly turned into a field of fireworks.

After destroying the devils’ reinforcements, the figure which was undoubtedly Aldrian stopped his technique, and the golden pillar disappeared before he stored the sword inside his storage ring.

He was with his avatar, whom he had tasked with patrolling the space to anticipate the devils’s reinforcements, something Aldrian already knew after reading the information inside the Red Tower’s headquarters.

The moment his avatar saw the armada, Aldrian transferred his consciousness into the avatar and created his domain there. With that, he took care of the reinforcements coming from the other worlds.

Aldrian observed the destruction he had just created, then looked behind him toward the Red Mist Star.

’I think they almost arrived at this moment.’
