Wandering Meteor-Chapter 43 Planet Collision

In the far reaches of space.

The Feather Robe Star streaked like lightning, seemingly distant one moment, only to close the gap in an instant.

Full of rage and overwhelming momentum, the Feather Robe Star didn’t slow down upon reaching the gravity field, not even bothering to diminish its gravity, instead using it to lock onto Lu Chen, clearly intent on a mutual destruction. freewebnøvel.coɱ

Sensing the challenge, Lu Chen responded defiantly.

He too used gravity to lock onto the Feather Robe Star, charging towards it at full speed.

The gravity of the two planets entwined, tugging at each other, causing both to fly towards one another at unbelievable speeds, resembling two high-velocity particles about to collide, from a cosmic perspective.

If these two planets of similar mass were to actually collide head-on at high speed, the outcome would be the same for either, regardless of their density.

That would be mutual destruction.

The two planets would shatter each other upon impact!

Of course, this was not what Wandering wanted to witness, wanting to remind Lu Chen to keep his cool.

However, before he could speak up, the two planets, when coming within ten thousand miles of each other, suddenly retracted their gravity and shifted their planetary trajectories.

In the end, the two planets narrowly missed each other, avoiding a catastrophic collision that would have resulted in mutual annihilation.

It was then that Wandering realized that what had just transpired had been nothing more than a probing attempt by both parties—he had overthought it.

Now, the two planets floated in the dark, cold depths of space, tens of thousands of miles apart, in a standoff like the tip of a needle against a grain of wheat!

The Feather Robe Star sent a conscious message: "I didn’t expect you to be so brave, to actually not fear death!"

"Who exactly are you? Why do you come forth so murderous?" Lu Chen ignored the praise and countered with a question.

With arrogance, Feather Robe Star declared: "You may call me Feather Robe Star. And you, who might you be?"

"You may call me Planet·Demon Star·Earth Guardian·Wandering Brother·Wanderer·Lu Chen," Lu Chen announced his full name.

The name, both long and seemingly formidable, caused the Feather Robe Star to hesitate, imposing a sense of unexplained awe, preventing any further underestimation.

Feather Robe Star questioned: "Is that Metal Ball an alien civilization’s spacecraft? Are you a symbiotic lifeform?"

"He’s not any kind of spacecraft, and what is this symbiotic lifeform you speak of?" Lu Chen asked, puzzled.

It was at that moment he finally understood that these alien civilizations had been making wild guesses about his relationship with Wandering.

Hearing himself being mentioned, Wandering introduced itself: "Please call me Metallic Planet·Magnetic Planet·Earth Detector·Wanderer·Wandering!"

"You actually possess Consciousness Particles, an actual metal planet, that’s really something special!"

When Feather Robe Star received the Consciousness Wave from Wandering, he was utterly shocked. It was his first encounter with a pure Metallic Planet, a Celestial Civilization.

Moreover, both planets’ names contained "Earth"—could it be that Earth is a highly advanced, formidable civilization?

"You haven’t answered me yet, why are you targeting me?" Lu Chen asked again.

Feather Robe Star spoke coldly: "I am a symbiotic lifeform with the Yin Yang Civilization; you and that damn Metal Planet have destroyed so many of the Yin Yang Civilization’s colonial planets, killed countless Yin Yang Star People. Why, you ask?"

As he righteously uttered these words, he seemed to forget about the lives of hundreds of millions of Yin Yang Star People on the Feather Robe Star.

"If you are indeed advocating for the Yin Yang Civilization, then I have nothing more to say. Make your move, and let’s see your strength!" Lu Chen was too lazy to argue.

Watching many Yin Yang Star People lose their lives to ferocious beasts on the Giant Dragon Star, the Feather Robe Star was filled with fury, "I don’t care who you are or what background you have, this Windmill Star System is my turf. You dare to come to my territory and kill my people, today you’ll leave your lives behind!"

"I will absorb you completely without leaving anything left!"

After Feather Robe Star finished speaking, word by word, he charged towards Wandering, murder in his eyes.

Because, in their earlier probing, Feather Robe Star and Lu Chen switched positions; now, Feather Robe Star was closer to Wandering and Giant Dragon Star.

"Wandering, be careful, come closer!"

Seeing Feather Robe Star attempting to strike at Wandering first, Lu Chen promptly locked onto Wandering with his gravity.

In perfect sync, Wandering didn’t retract its gravity, allowing his boss Lu Chen to lock onto him, then leveraging Lu Chen’s formidable gravity to propel himself towards his boss at high velocity.

Buzz!

However, at that moment, Wandering’s metallic body trembled fiercely, and its flight speed plummeted!

It turned out that Feather Robe Star had also locked onto Wandering with his gravity.

His direction was the exact opposite of Lu Chen’s, resulting in opposing forces.

It was this tug of war that completely nullified Wandering’s momentum.

Now, Lu Chen and Feather Robe Star stood at extreme odds, each pulling the caught Wandering between them, like a space gravity tug of war contest.

In such times, it was Wandering who suffered the most.

Caught between two incredibly strong gravitational forces, being tugged back and forth.

Had he been an ordinary asteroid or a minor planet, he would have been torn apart by these forces, but fortunately, he was a Metallic Planet, barely able to withstand the strain.

However, this could not go on forever.

Both Lu Chen and Feather Robe Star were clearly not using their gravity increments to their fullest. If they were, even Wandering would likely tear apart, even as a Metallic Planet.

"Heh heh."

Seemingly realizing this, Feather Robe Star recklessly increased his gravity threshold.

Lu Chen, not wanting Wandering to be absorbed by Feather Robe Star, had no choice but to passively increase his own gravity threshold.

Initially, both sides maintained a gravity strength of 1000, but as it slowly increased to 2000, it continued to rise.

As their gravity strengths soared against each other, Wandering’s thirty-kilometer metallic body jerked erratically in space!

Now it really resembled a tug of war contest.

And Wandering was the prize of this gravity tug of war!

"Damn, who can withstand this, I can’t take it anymore!"

As the gravity grew stronger and stronger, Wandering felt he could no longer bear it and had to eliminate his gravity.

However, by doing so, neither Lu Chen nor Feather Robe Star could continue to use gravity increments on him.

Nor could he return to his boss’s embrace.

But more troubling than that was, because he had suddenly eliminated gravity, the unprepared Lu Chen and Feather Robe Star couldn’t retract their forces in time, tangling instantly and pulling the two planets rapidly closer.

"This is bad!"

This was the mutual sentiment of both planets.

Because they were now very close, suddenly subjected to strong gravitational pull, they were approaching too quickly. It seemed uncontrollable, and they were about to collide!

Wandering never imagined that his attempt to dissolve the gravitational tug would lead to this current predicament.

Now, two planets, each with the mass of ten planets, were about to collide, and he happened to be right in the path of collision.
