Super Gene Hunting Ground

Chapter 1078 - 1072: Dwarf Star

"Have you ever heard of the Dwarf Star?"

"Dwarf Star?"

In the past two years, Yang Xiao had read all the books in the library, but there was little information about the so-called Dwarf Star people, only mentioned in a few books that they belonged to another star system, separate from Witch Star.

"Have a glass of water, and let me slowly tell you a story."

Xinghai poured Yang Xiao a glass of water and sat opposite him.

Yang Xiao took a sip from his tea cup and looked at Xinghai.

Yang Xiao always felt that Xinghai had taken good care of him, and he had a sense of closeness to this old man in front of him.

Xinghai smiled slightly and said:

"In the Milky Way Galaxy, there is a special star system called the Dwarf Star System. The Dwarf Star System is very far from our Witch Star, about ten thousand light-years away. Even with our Witch Star's fastest Curved Light Ship, traveling at a thousand times light speed, it would take ten years to reach,

We have little research on the Dwarf Star System and know very little about them. The current information we have is that about a thousand years ago, the Dwarf Star people once reached our Witch Star,

Five hundred years ago, ten huge Dwarf Star spaceships arrived at our Witch Star. These ten ships carried about fifty thousand warriors, led by a person named Thanos Saint, who launched a war of conquest against our Witch Star,

That battle was the most painful invasion war in the history of our Witch Star. Tens of billions of our Witch Star people rose to resist, countless died or were injured,

Those ordinary Dwarf Star warriors were extremely fierce, often able to fight one against a hundred. Especially their leader, Thanos Saint, whose combat power was beyond our imagination,

Under the violent attack of Thanos Saint, the people of Witch Star retreated step by step, corpses piled up like mountains, blood flowed like rivers, and the situation was miserable,

At that time, Witch Star had eight peak-level powerhouses, whose Genetic Evolution had reached the rare Saint Level Realm, but these eight were not opponents for Thanos Saint,

Finally, the eight peak-level powerhouses at the Saint Level Realm joined forces and, in a mutual destruction manner, finally defeated Thanos Saint, repelled the invasion of the Dwarf Star people, and destroyed nine of their ten ships,

The remaining Dwarf Star people fled in panic,

Just like that, five hundred years have passed."

Yang Xiao listened to Xinghai's story as if he were hearing a celestial book, finding it truly hard to imagine that such a fierce large-scale war had occurred on Witch Star,

Even harder to imagine was the shocking scene of eight peak-level powerhouses at the Saint Level Realm confronting Thanos Saint.

Yang Xiao was shocked and blurted out:

"Are there still any peak-level powerhouses at the Saint Level Realm on Witch Star now?"

Upon hearing this, Xinghai gave a bitter smile and shook his head, saying:

"Heh, ever since that great war five hundred years ago, Witch Star has suffered great losses, with talent gaps. Apart from a few Emperor Level Realm Evolvers, there hasn't been a single Saint Level Evolver."

Yang Xiao felt somewhat relieved hearing this. Right now, he was already powerless against the Emperor Level Realm Evolvers of the Great Dragon Empire. If a few peak-level powerhouses at the Saint Level Realm were to appear, his goal of defeating the Great Dragon Empire might never be achieved in this lifetime.

"Dean, why are you telling me this today?"

Yang Xiao asked, a little puzzled, as he looked at Xinghai.

Xinghai smiled faintly and said,

"More than ten years ago, a small spaceship suddenly crashed onto Witch Star. Coincidentally, this small spaceship turned out to be from the Dwarf Star people,

We found a few bodies of Dwarf Star warriors from the wreckage of the ship. Based on our conjecture, another invasion of Witch Star by the Dwarf Star people is almost inevitable. We just don't know the exact time or the scale of their attack,

When Thanos Saint was defeated, his body was never found. It is said that Thanos Saint might revive and return to Witch Star."

Xinghai said this with a face full of melancholy, looking at Yang Xiao.

Yang Xiao was shocked inwardly, looking at Xinghai.

"Dean, why are you telling me this?"

Xinghai sighed and said,

"Do you know when Flying Leopard Academy was established?"

Yang Xiao shook his head; he hadn't really noticed this issue.

"Flying Leopard Academy was established after that interstellar war. Do you know the mission of our Flying Leopard Academy?"

Yang Xiao was taken aback and said,

"I know this, to cultivate outstanding talent and save Witch Star."

This mission was engraved on a huge stone tablet at the entrance of the academy, although the monument was now covered in ivy, obscuring the words.

In these five hundred years of peace, no one thought of topics like "saving Witch Star."

Yang Xiao knew the mission of Flying Leopard Academy from occasionally reading the academy's guidebook. He found it curious—this slogan seemed grand, so he looked at it twice more and remembered it.

Xinghai seemed surprised to hear Yang Xiao recite the academy's mission so fluently.

"Huh, I didn't expect you to know the academy's mission. Alas, not many mention it anymore. People say it's somewhat outdated and should be revised,

I've been a bit lazy. This matter has been delayed; I've neither proposed a new mission nor promoted the original one. Now, very few students in the whole academy know the mission. Sigh, I feel a bit derelict in my duty!"

Yang Xiao: "..."

Damn, is this old man Xinghai chatting with me just to find someone to confess his neglect to?

"Dean, you're an excellent dean. Right, were you telling me about the Dwarf Star people and Thanos Saint to explain the history of the academy?"

Xinghai laughed silently, then said very seriously,

"Yang Xiao, if Thanos Saint revives and makes a comeback, with the current strength of Witch Star, there's no way to resist, and the entire Witch Star will certainly be conquered by the Dwarf Star people."

Images of Earth being conquered by people from the Great Dragon Empire suddenly flashed in Yang Xiao's mind—a miserable scene where tens of billions of people disappeared overnight from Earth. Can there be a more tragic planetary conquest?

An inexplicable sense of comfort suddenly surged in Yang Xiao's heart. Very well, you used brutal means to conquer Earth; now the Dwarf Star people are coming to conquer you. Isn't this good?

Once Wuxin is conquered by the Dwarf Star people, Yang Xiao wouldn't even need to seek revenge on the people of the Great Dragon Empire. The whole Earth would gain freedom. His only task would be to find an interstellar spaceship and leave here, returning to Earth before the Dwarf Star people conquer Witch Star.

Thinking this in his heart, Yang Xiao didn't dare show it, instead pretending to be very sad and regretful.

"If such a day really comes, that would be most unfortunate. However, since Witch Star currently has nobody capable of resisting Thanos Saint, no matter how we resist, there's no way out. By then, everyone might as well surrender, and maybe we can preserve our lives."

"No, you're wrong. I believe we can definitely find a way to deal with the Dwarf Star people, and there will definitely be someone capable of taking on the responsibility of saving Witch Star."

Yang Xiao smiled and said:

"Dean, you just said there are no Saint Level Evolvers on Witch Star now. Who else has the ability to resist the Dwarf Star people and save Witch Star?"

"You!"

Xinghai looked at Yang Xiao, his eyes unwaveringly firm.

Yang Xiao was stunned, looking dumbfounded at Xinghai.

"What the hell, are you kidding me? Even when looking for a scapegoat, is this some kind of godly operation?"
