"An alien. Her aura is the same as an alien's!" Lan Jue's voice rang out in the Pharmacist and Gourmet's ears.
An alien?
Such a strong one?
Both of their hearts sank. If the Violet Princess was an alien, then she was undoubtedly one of the most powerful beings in the world.
If she was here, did that mean there were other predators here as well?
The Violet Princess had escaped Zeus -1's onslaught. Impatient, she threw her head back and screamed at the sky. Suddenly, a pair of purple wings unfurled from her back. Her entire form began to change.
Her originally beautiful face suddenly became sinister, and purplish-red demonic patterns appeared on her face. Her normal height also expanded to over three meters. Although her body was still perfectly proportioned, fine purplish-red scales appeared on her body.
She glared ferociously at Zeus -1. Then she punched out.
Suddenly, the sky, and even the very fabric of space around them was dyed purple.
Everything slowed to a crawl, and the air thickened.
A blinding purple light transformed into the maw of a beast. It swooped toward Zeus -1, ready to swallow it whole.
"No!" Lan Jue screamed. But there was nothing he could do.
Enveloped by the purplish-red light, his speed was greatly restricted.
Even the red light emitted by the Immortal Trapping Sword seemed to have dimmed significantly.
"Kacha!" At this moment …
Suddenly, there was the crisp sound of a shutter.
Immediately after, the purplish-red space suddenly turned into a light pink color. Then, that purplish-red color was like broken glass.
Pieces of it fell in all directions.
Zeus-1 was like a bird that had just escaped its clutches. It shot off into the distance.
Mika was in charge of Zeus -1. Her clothes were soaked with sweat. She could feel it.
Death was upon them. If they were swallowed by the purple light, everyone aboard Zeus -1 would be turned to ash.
No one had expected that their successful campaign against the Moonfiend Pirates would end with a creature like this.
What was it?
This was the same question in everyone's mind.
Even Roxanne, who had just saved Zeus -1 from danger, was the same.
The Violet Princess reappeared in her human form.
For the first time, her eyes showed surprise. She looked doubtfully at Luo Xianni, who was floating in mid-air, and frowned slightly.
Roxanne held the camera in one hand and looked at her in confusion.
When Roxanne arrived, Lan Jue heaved a sigh of relief.
"She must be an alien," he said in a low voice.
But for some reason, it's in human form, "Lan Jue said in a deep voice.
Raiders?
As soon as these three words came out.
Both the Pharmacist and the Gourmet felt their hearts skip a beat.
How could such a beautiful girl be an alien?
Thinking back to the power she had just used, she did seem like a predator.
This was especially true for the ferocious aura.
Roxanne grunted and raised the camera again. The Violet Princess seemed to sense something. Her body flickered, and in a flash she was in front of Roxanne. Her fist flew out.
Just as the fist was about to connect with Roxanne's body …
Roxanne's body flickered, and in a blur she became ethereal. When she reappeared she was a thousand meters away.
Click! The sound of a camera shutter rang out.
The sky turned pink, and the Violet Princess froze.
However, her sluggishness only lasted for a moment. Immediately after, a powerful purplish-red light erupted from her body. Although it stopped in the air, it did not stop.
Roxanne didn't turn her into a photograph.
Seeing this scene, everyone could not help but reveal a look of shock.
They all knew that Roxanne had used her camera to seal an entire fleet!
But against this human-like creature, she couldn't.
The fact that he couldn't seal the Violet Princess was a testament to her terrifying strength.
The Violet Princess clapped her hands together in front of her. Violet light surged forth like a tidal wave, covering the vast expanse of pink space.
The sky turned purplish-red, and a purplish-red shadow appeared behind her.
It was a huge purplish-red sphere. Although it was somewhat illusory, its general shape could still be seen clearly. Huge tentacles popped out of the purplish-red sphere, constantly waving about.
The Violet Princess's aura changed with the appearance of the silhouette.
She seemed to have finally used her true strength.
For a moment, the sky was filled with alternating purplish-red and pink lights. Terrifying energy fluctuations spread throughout the sky.
"Get on Zeus -1, we're retreating," the Gourmet said decisively.
As he watched the Violet Princess and Roxanne fight, he knew this was not a fight they could participate in.
He was also glad the Violet Princess hadn't used her full strength against them. If she had, they'd be dead by now.
The three of them made their way back to Zeus -1. Guided by the tractor beam, they returned to the battleship.
Lan Jue returned to the bridge and ordered Mika to take off.
It was too dangerous to remain on the planet's surface. It would be better to wait for Roxanne in space.
Zeus -1 spun around the area of space where the terrifying energy rippled. Its tail spat out a plume of flame as it shot through the atmosphere and disappeared.
Lan Jue's face was dark. The destruction of the Moonfiend Pirates had been a cause for celebration, but now the atmosphere inside Zeus -1 was tense.
Lan Jue had faced many aliens in his time, including progenitors and their brethren.
He'd thought he had a certain understanding of these creatures.
But now, facing the Violet Princess, he realized how wrong he'd been.
He'd once believed the aliens were strong, but they relied on their physical strength. Their energy levels were related to their size. With the current level of human technology, it shouldn't be too difficult to repel the alien home worlds.
Then it would be a battle of attrition.
But now that he'd met the Violet Princess, he'd discovered his assumptions had been turned upside down.
The power the Violet Princess had displayed was terrifying.
That terrifying fighting strength made people feel that it was difficult to resist.
Even Luo Xianni, who had reached the level of Nirvana, could only stop her.
Lan Jue also sensed that the Violet Princess wasn't very familiar with her powers. If she had been, she would've killed them all in the first attack.
That was a Nirvana-level expert they were talking about!
