"Go!"
Locking its will onto a massive meteorite in the asteroid belt not far away, the magical formation immediately shot out a huge column of starlight. The meteorite collided with the beam and instantly turned to dust, disappearing into the universe.
"The power is quite good!"
With a trace of contentment creeping into his smile, George observed the effect produced by the fairy's radiance.
This is the effect he produces in human form. If he were to use it in dragon form, with his magical power greatly increased, the effect would be even stronger.
At this moment, the remaining raiders who had slightly regained their composure in the spacecraft stood beside Yudai, watching the broken giant meteorite outside with speechless expressions.
"Big Boss, that that that. That that. That meteorite is twice the size of our base ship!"
The ability to blast a meteorite twice the size of their ship into pieces means that the other side could, if they chose to, also destroy their base ship with a single blow.
The most powerful combat machine of the Kri Empire, the Kri Sentinel's Exoplanet Laser Cannon, is probably around this level of power.
"So. You guys had better be smart. Don't mess with him, otherwise I can't save you."
"Keep up the good work! Maybe this time we'll really earn two hundred million!"
Yudai's eyes were filled with both shock and delight.
The shock came from George's strength, and the delight also came from George's strength.
With George's current strength on display, he might actually be able to take out Sarnos and Rannon, which would mean that he and Peter could each get a billion dollars.
Star-Lord, Gamora, and Rocket shared the same sentiment. Gamora wasn't concerned about the billion dollars; what she cared about was that maybe she could finally exact her revenge this time.
"Keep moving forward!"
After Apparating back to the ship and greeting Yudai, George returned to his room and started consolidating the Fairy's Radiance he had just grasped.
If I had known that there were benefits to understanding the fairy's radiance in space, I should have come out and seen it sooner.
Indeed, as a mage who seeks to understand all the laws of the universe and create their own world, studying alone is not enough. One also needs to travel and gain knowledge.
As the ship continued to advance, it soon reached the nearest jump point near Earth.
When the ship crossed the jump point and directly jumped a great distance, appearing outside the solar system, George gained another insight, this time it was regarding the rules of spatial magic.
In reality, the space jump points in the universe are one of the highest natural manifestations of spatial laws in the universe.
To understand, even at the speed of light, it would take over a year to leave the solar system, but using jump points, it only takes one second to escape from the solar system and enter other galaxies.
At present, he is far from being able to achieve such long-distance spatial movement.
He can only rely on his abilities, and he can teleport from the South Pole to the North Pole at most, but he is still unable to move between planets, let alone between galaxies.
"Long journey ahead and a tough road to travel!"
George couldn't help but exclaim after passing through the space jump point.
He had been thinking of connecting all the worlds in the future, so that he could travel to any world at will, rather than being limited to just creating a soul resonance connection like he could only do now for some auxiliary effect.
But to reach that point, his understanding of the spatial laws would have to exceed the level where he could freely teleport across the Marvel multiverse.
Only by being able to freely teleport across the Marvel multiverse could one rely on a soul connection to break through world barriers and enter other parallel universes.
Following George's command, the ship raced forward without any stop, continuously traveling through different jump points. Finally, after a week, it arrived at the boundary between the Milky Way and the Large Magellanic Cloud. "Principal, we have received an emergency distress signal. It's from a patrol fleet of the New Star Empire. Their location coincides with that of the planet where Sarnos and Rannon launched their attack."
Gamora knocked on the door and reported to George, who was in the midst of studying magic inside.
George temporarily halted his research and opened the door with Gamora, bringing her to the command center where Star-Lord replayed the distress call.
"This is K-9852 star. We are the border patrol fleet of the New Star Empire, 8th Fleet, K-9852. We've discovered Rannon attacking this planet, with Thane Sarnos' fleet also present. Please dispatch a fleet to support immediately! Immediately!"
"This signal was sent half an hour ago. With the strength of Rannon's and Sarnos' fleets, that planet and the patrol fleet should have already been destroyed."
However, based on Sarnos' usual habits, except for the resources taken away, half of the people should still be able to survive.
Given the rate of support from the New Star Empire here, it would take at least two days to gather enough strength to deal with Rannon and Sarnos' fleets.
By then, they would have long since disappeared."
Gamora's eyes had a slightly dim look as she spoke.
She had experienced it too many times. Her own planet had been destroyed in a similar way.
All resources were plundered, and half of the population was annihilated. Even if the remaining half survived, they would be gravely injured and their level of civilization would drop several notches.
If fate is not kind, they might encounter forces that take advantage of the situation and turn the entire planet into a slave planet.
This kind of thing is beyond the reach of the New Star Empire, the Kri Empire, or even the Skrull Empire.
Because Sarnos does not seek to occupy planets; he is only interested in plundering resources and killing. He just leaves after doing so.
If it were just ordinary raiders, a patrol team could easily drive them away like a dog being chased.
But with the strength of Sarnos' fleet, it would be impossible to defeat them without using a third of the empire's fleet in a joint siege.
The key is that the empires are already in a state of chaos. How could they possibly spare such a large number of troops?
Therefore, the insane Titan Sarnos is so well-known in the universe, and his strength makes the three empires dare not overlook him.
"Contact Sarnos again and tell him that you are holding a pirate ship and it's on its way. Tell him not to rush away and wait for you on that planet."
George pondered for a moment and then took out the Infinity Cube and threw it to Gamora.
Now, this situation is actually the best for him.
The situation where both Thanos and Rannon are on the planet provides a convenient opportunity to deal with them all at once, eliminating the need to worry about their escape.
After all, both Thanos and Rannon have fleets that can create temporary jump points for spatial jumps, allowing them to quickly evade capture.
In the movie, when Rannan led his fleet to invade Earth, he used a spatial jump point to leave directly, encountering Captain Marvel along the way.
If in the vast expanse of space, they fled on their ships before the battle ended, he couldn't catch up with them.
On the planet, however, it would be easier to handle.
"No problem, with the Infinity Cube in hand, Sarnos' character wouldn't doubt it."
Gamora took the Infinity Cube and went to contact Sarnos again.
