Chapter 1108: Rage

Translator: Sean88888 Editor: Elkassar1

Although the Arbitrator was someone of high standing among the Predators, he was, first and foremost, a Predator. He had a wildness, arrogance, and rebelliousness, as well as a lust for battle that came from deep within his bones!

The human’s repeated provocations had finally crossed his bottom line!

However, when the Arbitrator issued the order, a silver barrier appeared in front of him, cleverly blocking out his voice. The air near him suddenly shook. A figure that was transparent like a crystal and continuously fluctuating appeared next to the Arbitrator.

The figure was undoubtedly a Predator too, but her pelvis was broad, her cheeks were slender, and the contour of her full breasts was clear. She could be identified at first glance as a female Predator.

As a matriarchal society, many Predators who held important powers like the Elders and the Arbitrators were accompanied by such powerful Royal Female Warriors.

The Royal Female Warriors followed behind them like shadows and could be ignored most of the time, except when the interests of the Great Queen were harmed.

This Royal Female Warrior stood proudly in front of the Arbitrator and said in a low and pleasant-sounding voice, “Unfortunately, respectable Arbitrator, you have just issued an invalid order, as it violates the will of the Queen.”

A series of roars like those made by wild animals came from the Arbitrator’s chest.

“Do you want to let the glory of the Predators be lost in my hands?!! I’ve backed down three times to those ant-like humans, but, but!! On the third time, I made an oath in the name of my father that I, the bearer of the great surname Clant, a powerful being who inherited the bloodline of the King of Fangs, will never concede for the fourth time. Otherwise, let my tainted flesh and soul turn to ashes together!”

“I understand how you feel, esteemed Arbitrator, but regrettably, the Queen’s dignity and will are above everything. I’m sorry, there’s no way I can let you pass down the order.”

As the Royal Female Warrior spoke, the crimson mask and armour of the Arbitrator began to ooze with a darker shade of red, as if these inanimate objects were greedily sucking in blood. The Arbitrator lowered his head slightly, but his fists were grasped so tightly that the sharp claws on his hands were deeply embedded in the tough leather gloves he was wearing!

“If, that’s, how, it, is, then DIE!”

When the arbitrator started speaking, he spat out the first few words with difficulty like someone with language impairment. As he spoke, he turned his body with the power and agility of a fierce beast, exuding ferocity and dignity!

The Arbitrator launched a fierce fist that hit the Royal Female Warrior in the abdomen!!

The power contained in this punch was beyond imagination. It even pierced through the armour of the Royal Female Warrior straight into her abdominal cavity, destroyed her internal organs, breaking her spine and cleanly going through her back!!!

The Arbitrator could clearly feel the sticky sensation of the internal organs and the broken spine of the Royal Female Warrior stubbornly latching onto his arm, struggling to support her body, but the Predator was quickly losing her exuberant vitality along with the mad gush of her emerald-coloured blood.

“I’ve had enough of you, Sonia. Rest in peace. I’ll forgive your insolence and bury you in the graveyard of the great King of Fangs after your death. After all, you’re my daughter.”

Sonia gasped wildly for breath, her eyes filled with pain as well as anger.

“You…you…how dare you betray the Queen!”

“I’m defending the glory of the Predators!” While roaring, the Arbitrator grabbed Sonia’s left arm as quick as lightning, then forcefully broke it and threw it away.

Next, the Arbitrator’s furious roar spread throughout the spaceship through the loudspeakers.

“Initiate Level 1 combat preparation. We will make our way to the wormhole ahead and travel through it. Anyone who dares to get in our way is our enemy! How do we treat our enemies?”

After a momentary pause, earth-shaking shouts came from every corner of the ship.

“We peel off their skin and hang those cowardly worms upside-down from the ceiling!”

The Arbitrator removed his mask and roared at the ceiling with his trapezoidal mouth.

Four hours later, General Mungo on the Kitty Hawk received the news that the 6th Andromeda Fleet had been attacked during a drill near Wormhole 1468.

The assailant was a Predator spaceship.

The fleet lost four Satellite-class Star Destroyers and a Planetary-class Star Cruiser.

But the Predator spaceship was also severely damaged. Cracks had appeared on the spaceship and about a third of its hull had been snatched after it split from the ship due to taking severe hits.

From the transmitted images, it could be seen that the original size of the Predator spaceship was similar to that of a human Star-class spaceship (human spaceship classifications: Meteor < Comet < Planet < Star < Black Hole). It had a shape akin to a horseshoe, but by the time it flew into the wormhole, it was already shaped like a bow.

(TL: It was mentioned before that Star Destroyers were Satellite-class. I think the author made a mistake and Comet-class should be Satellite-class instead.)

When Lieutenant General Mungo heard the news, he fell weakly onto his chair and covered his forehead with his hands, as if all strength had seeped out of his body.

After a long time, he spoke to the AI in front of him with obvious difficulty.

“The damage to the Predator spaceship should at least prolong the time they’ll take to get to Uplos, right?”

The AI quickly simulated a 3D map and told him straight, “Esteemed Lieutenant General, according to the latest information we received, it was found that the damage to the Predator spaceship will not affect its speed.”

“How’s that possible?” asked Lieutenant General Mungo as he stared wide-eyed at the AI.

The AI explained patiently, “The flying principle of the Predator spaceship is totally different from that of the human spaceships. It’s powered by the gravitational forces between stars. For example, the sun can drag the Earth, which weighs 60 trillion tons, around in space at a speed of 30 kilometers per second with its gravitational force. The Predators skillfully utilise this kind of force to power their spaceships. The spaceship itself can be considered to be one huge engine. I’ve done a calculation as you’ve requested. The result is forty-eight hours.”

“The Predators will reach Uplos in forty-eight hours at the latest.”

Sheyan and the other contestants naturally had no way of knowing the bad news.

Even if they did find out, they had no time to think about it at the moment.

That was because right now, the assault on the Violent Beast den was reaching the most critical point. If they let themselves be distracted at such a crucial time, they would just be seeking death.

With the help of Hadrick, the seeds of the curly paulownia tree once again showed their great power. The Violent Beasts that had just mustered the courage to go back into the water were once again assaulted by the seeds. They flocked back onto the island. This time, Sheyan and the other humans brazenly showed themselves in the distance from the very beginning. With his powerful terrain modelling ability, Pokan built a strong dike in the swamp that slowly extended towards the island. The reborn Ramtas laid on the long dike and shot his long spikes into the Violent Beast crowd on the island non-stop.

Although the number of beasts had decreased by a third, the population density on the island was still pretty high. In addition, with the help of the living detector that was Sheyan, even the Violent Beasts lurking beneath the surface of the shallow soil could not hide from them.

Paul had also spent a few hours to assemble an assault rifle that could be used for both fixed-point sniping and continuous firing – the SIG SG 550!

(TL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIG_SG_550 )

The bullets of this weapon had about the same power as those of the Desert Eagle, but the SIG SG 550 had a shooting range of 1,200 meters. It could switch between single fire and rapid fire.

And because this weapon was made by Paul himself, the elite soldiers they met on this planet could also use it. The soldiers had stayed here for several years, so every bullet they had was precious. They had to make good use of the bullets to an appalling degree; killing two adversaries with one shot was the most basic requirement for them. So, one could imagine how much excitement this weapon caused when it fell into the hands of these people whose shooting desire had been suppressed for way too long!

The swamp which had always been the home court of the Violent Beasts had now become an impassable ravine for them. The five-metre-wide dike looked rather unsafe, and it looked like the Xenomorphs in the swamp could easily rush up there and start a killing spree, but be it Sheyan, Ronnie, or the iron golem that Paul had just repaired, they were all waiting for the Xenomorphs to do just that. As soon as the Xenomorphs did, the monsters would face a crazy storm of attacks!

The intelligence of the Xenomorphs was obviously not low, so they had been wary of taking any action so far. This was within Sheyan’s plan. The existence of Sheyan gave them a tremendous pressure. In response, they must hang around and keep moving in the vicinity of the humans to return this pressure to the enemies. The Xenomorphs still remembered the terrible consequences in letting these people attack at will.

The two sides had reached a deadlock.

But the deadlock was not a fair one, because although Ramtas had only fifty bristles to shoot before he had to wait for several hours for them re-grow, Paul had brought ample amount of bullets with him. With the terrifying shooting accuracy of the soldiers, they were more than enough to kill the Violent Beasts on the island ten times over!
