When the hodgepodge world of anime meets the shadow king

"What's going on?!" The commander of the ambush fleet that had just wiped out the escort fleet looked solemnly at the soaring energy index on the virtual screen.

"An abnormal exponential increase in energy has been detected," the fleet's intelligent AI warned, "matching the database..."

"Match successful, 96.73% chance of being 'Latitude Advent'!"

"Latitude is coming?!" The commander's eyes widened, obviously knowing something.

He pursed his lips and looked worriedly at the desolate planet in the distance where Kitahara Akatsuki and his companions were.

"The trace of shadow..."

the other side

"What's going on?!" Hellfire looked at Kitahara Xiao in shock. In his perception, this guy's aura suddenly rose at an extremely fast speed.

"It's the original superpower [Trace of Shadow]!" [Blood Count] gritted his teeth and said, "This guy is trying to merge it!"

"Stop him!" [Blood Earl] roared, and then the three of them pounced on Kitahara Xiao.

Feeling the three powerful disaster-level pressures, Yukinoshita Yukino and Kato Megumi also forcibly overcame the fear of being superior in their genes and tried to assume a fighting stance.

Although they didn't know what was going on with Kitahara Akira, they knew they had to buy him some time!

"Ah ...

The powerful energy rushed through his body without mercy, and he felt like his body was about to be torn apart.

The internal organs seemed to be placed in a fiery furnace, enduring indescribable burning and churning. The body seemed to be caught in a mad storm, and the pain was like a surging wave, sweeping over wave after wave, drowning the consciousness.

"Crack!" The surrounding space barriers could no longer withstand the endless pressure and suddenly broke into several gaps.

Countless dark substances rushed into the real universe from the secondary dimension like water in a broken bucket.

Erosion, coverage, assimilation.

The black matter is rapidly taking over the surrounding space, enveloping the entire desolate planet and rapidly spreading outward.

【Shadow Dimension】is coming!

"Boom!" [Hellfire] cast several powerful demon curse spells at the barrier of the shadow dimension, but to no avail.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!" Countless sticky and strange tentacles stretched out and wrapped around Hellfire's limbs, trapping him tightly.

“Aaaaaaa——!” He wailed in pain. These things were devouring the energy in his body!

"Lukan!" [Hellfire] yelled hysterically, "Why the hell are you still standing there?!"

[Blood Duke] Lukan's body quickly turned into a bunch of bats to avoid the attack of the strange tentacles.

Feeling this terrifying sense of oppression, even the proud [Blood Duke] had to admit that the mission had failed.

"Retreat!" he shouted

[Hellfire] looked at [Blood Count] in surprise as if he had heard something incredible. "Retreat?! Are you kidding? If we go back like this, Your Excellency Alien God..."

Before he could finish, the Blood Duke bit off his tongue and swallowed a large amount of blood into his stomach.

His well-proportioned body swelled rapidly, his wounds healed quickly, and his internal strength increased dramatically.

The explosive [Blood Duke] became ruthless, and gathered powerful and strange magic power in the palm of his hand. "Bang!" He hit the barrier of the shadow dimension with all his strength, creating a hole that was barely big enough for one person to pass through.

Under the astonished gaze of [Hellfire], [Blood Duke] rushed out of the encirclement of the Shadow Dimension with a sprint. Seeing this, the slime-like Ciri quickly stretched out her slender mucus tentacles, grabbed [Blood Duke]'s legs and took herself out.

"Lukan! Xirui!" [Hellfire] was so angry that he almost had a brain hemorrhage. "I *******!"

Powerful energy waves continued to surge from behind [Hellfire]. When he turned around to look, he happened to meet the eyes of Kitahara Xiao, who had a serious face.

Knife, sword, spear, gun, halberd, stick, bow.

The power of shadow condensed into various weapons to surround him, and each weapon was wrapped in the terrifying power of the shadow dimension.

[Hellfire] forced a smile and said, "Hey, can we reconcile?"

............................................................

When the support troops arrived by leaping, they saw a mess on the ground.

The space was filled with a strange light curtain formed by ionized gas, flickering, as if mourning for the lost fleet. This area was like a huge cosmic cemetery, with warship wreckage of various shapes floating.

The hull of the large battleship was twisted and deformed, like the remains of a severely damaged giant beast. The alloy armor plates of the ship were blown away, revealing the intricate internal wiring and damaged instruments and equipment that were sparking.

In the broken bridge, glass fragments floated like ghosts, the control console that once controlled the direction was unrecognizable, and the burnt marks told of the tragedy before death.

The wreckage of the small frigate was even more broken, with only half of the hull remaining in some cases, and the thrusters were still intermittently spitting out weak sparks, as if struggling in vain.

Various parts and metal fragments were scattered everywhere. Some of them rubbed against each other during the collision, making faint sounds, which seemed particularly desolate in the silent universe.

Around the wreckage of the energy shield generator, the residual energy was like a thin mist, twisting irregularly. Those once indestructible shields had now turned into nothing, becoming a footnote to the destruction of the fleet.

Occasionally, an escape pod would slowly float out from the wreckage, most of them were badly damaged, with dented hulls and lights off.

Inside the escape pod that luckily remained intact, the survivors looked out the narrow observation window at the devastation with empty eyes, fear and despair following them like shadows.

"Cough cough..." The exhausted Kitahara Xiao entered the main control room of the main ship of the reinforcement fleet with the help of Universe Daba and Long Ritian, and the seriously injured [Jisi] was sent directly to the emergency room.

"Your Excellency Shadow," the captain pursed his lips and said in a serious tone, "May I ask where is the target we asked you to escort?"

Kitahara Akira shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, we tried our best, but it was still taken away."

"The enemies are [Blood Duke] Lukaon, [Hellfire] Silas, [Sticky Hands] Ciri, we... are no match for them."

Two Beyond Grade A seeds and one Elite Calamity Grade?

The captain took a deep breath and said, "I understand..."

He hesitated for a moment and added, "Don't blame yourself, you have done your best."

Kitahara Akatsuki nodded in response.

Seeing this, the fleet captain said nothing more, said goodbye to Kitahara Xiao, and walked towards the command room.

Kitahara Xiao silently watched the fleet captain going away, his eyes flashing with a strange light.
