The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 517



After Marlee left David's room, she gathered all the Universe Realm martial arts masters on the merchant ship and prepared to fight to the death. In total there were over twenty people. The strongest of course was Marlee, a Peak Infinity Rank.


Then there was Fraser, the senior butler of the Jung family, whose strength had reached the final Infinity Rank. There were also two Mid-Infinity Rankers and three beginner Infinity Rankers. The other dozen were Celestial Rankers and Cosmos Rankers.


If this power was compared to the space pirates outside the merchant ships, the difference in strength was not too great, and both sides could still fight each other. Although there were many space pirates, with Marlee as the Peak Infinity Ranker, it was uncertain who would win. However, the core members of the space pirates had yet to descend from the black warship.


If the opponent suddenly sent out a Peak Infinity Ranker, the Jung family would have no hope of winning. Moreover, the Peak Infinity Ranker was not even the strongest combat power of this group of space pirates. No matter how one looked at it, the Jung family was in a disadvantageous position.


“May, merchant ship defense will be penetrated. Only one percent left.” shouted someone.


Marlee and the expert masters behind her tensed up. Once the defense was broken, they would immediately attack and fight to the death with the opponent. No one thought of escaping.


They could only concentrate their strength and fight to the death after facing the most ruthless space pirates. Escaping would only make them die faster. Marlee quickly tries to figure out a way to create a loophole for David. Time passes slowly.


Ten seconds. Half a minute. Three full minutes passed, but the last one percent of the merchant ship's defense was impenetrable.


"Oh? What the hell is going on?" Everyone on the merchant ship sensed something was amiss.


'How is it possible that a one percent defence is not penetrated after three minutes?


Did the opponent stop?'


However, they could see from the merchant ship's control room that the space pirates outside were still attacking with all their might. Despite this, the defense of merchant ships stopped at one percent and did not decrease any further. Such a strange phenomenon aroused great curiosity in the hearts of everyone.


Not only did Marlee and the others realize something was wrong, but the space pirates outside felt it too. When they had just attacked, they could feel the merchant ship's defense weakening. However, since three minutes ago, nothing else had changed no matter how they attacked.


The remaining thin defensive layer was impenetrable. It's a little beyond their understanding. If a portion of the Eternal or Eternal suddenly emerged from the merchant ship, they would all be wiped out. Everybody understands that.


However, it is difficult for space pirates to understand why they were stopped when their success was imminent. What was more important was that they had never heard of this, coupled with their unsuccessful attacks, making the space pirates gradually start to feel like retreating. Their attacks also began to weaken.


The unknown is always the most frightening. Even if a portion of the Eternal appeared on the merchant ship, they would not feel as uneasy as they were now.


The change in situation naturally could not escape the view of the core members of the space pirates in the distance. They had been watching inside the warship.


“Bos, this is weird. According to the damage we inflicted on the merchant ship with the first blow, there's no way we still haven't broken through after all this time" said one of the space pirates.


“It looks like this merchant ship is not as simple as imagined.” Boss looked at the merchant ship not far away from him and said meaningfully.


"Then what should we do?"


"Let's wait! If it still doesn't work after five minutes, then Infinity's Highest Ranking should go and see what's wrong."


"Good Boss!" The multiple cores of space pirates at the Peak Infinity Rank replied at the same time.


The black warship did not move, and the space pirates continued to attack. After five minutes, the merchant ship was still in the same condition as five minutes ago. Nothing has changed. Marlee and the others didn't know what else to say. This was also the first time they had encountered such a strange situation.


They obviously only had 1% of the defensive power left, but it showed no signs of weakening after dozens of Universe Realm expert masters attacked them for a full eight minutes. In other words, this group of space pirates weakened nearly 40% of merchant ship defenses in about 20 minutes. However, they can't do anything until the last 1% after 8 minutes.


'I don't understand. Could it be that the family secretly remodeled this merchant ship and greatly strengthened its defenses?


This is the only possibility! We have no other explanation. But does the family have such means?'


Even Marlee, the top three core seniors of the Jung family, didn't even know about it.


'It seems like the family is still not ready for me to integrate into the family and always look after me!' Marlee thought to herself.


After all, the fact that merchant ships could not be breached was good news for the people on the merchant ships. No matter if it was a member of the Jung family or someone Marlee had hired for a lot of money, none of them would be willing to risk their lives if they could avoid facing space pirates.


"Mrs Jung, w-what happened?" Someone expressed the doubt that was in his heart.


He wasn't the only one who had such questions, everyone was wondering the same.


“Everyone, you need not be surprised. This was one of the backup methods set up by the Jung family. This delivery brings all the wishes of the Jung family. Naturally, we have considered various situations and made preparations." replied Marlee calmly.


He doesn't really know the source of protection. However, as the person in charge of this merchant ship, Marlee could not show ignorance like everyone else. His words reassured everyone present.


"So so! Why didn't you say it earlier, Madame Jung? We were worried for so long and we thought we had to fight to the death with these space pirates!"


“Yes, Mrs Jung, you are so unreasonable. We all thought we were going to die today."


The two who spoke were Mid-Infinity Rankers hired by the Jung family at a very expensive price.


“Since this is a backup plan, I definitely can't use it until the last moment. You've raised so much money, so you should have considered all kinds of accidents." replied Marlee calmly.


“Of course, we know that. We were just ready to fight, but Madame Jung, how long can the last one percent of the defensive power last? And what level of attack can be blocked? The core figure of the space pirates had yet to come out, and according to the current situation, they would definitely not be able to sit still."


“Sorry, this is one of the secrets of the Jung family, so I can't tell you. You just have to wait patiently. If they can't solve it, everything will be fine for us. If they break it, we can only fight to the death."


“Mistress Jung, at least let us be mentally prepared. If you're so secretive, how can we work together to fight those space pirates, right?"


“It's true! Madam Jung, this matter concerns our lives, so please tell us the truth. ”.


Marlee didn't know what to do when she faced everyone's questions. He can't make everyone angry. However, he did not even know what was going on, so how should he explain it?


While Marlee was thinking of a solution, some people suddenly came out of the black warship in the distance and approached the merchant ship quickly.


"Mrs! Madam! More people are coming from opposite warships!” A staff member shouted.


His voice instantly broke the silence of that scene. Everyone's attention was also diverted, and they turned their heads. They saw four space pirates rushing towards the merchant ship like four flashes.


When Marlee saw the four people quickly approaching the merchant ship, she knew they were not simple. They should have been four Peak Infinity Rank and their strength was the same as his. Once the merchant ship's defenses were broken, they would have no chance of winning at all.


If there were four Infinity Rank Peaks, Marlee could only block one. Other than her, it might just be Fraser, the late-stage Infinity Ranker, the only one on this ship that could survive a single blow. The others were like ants before the three Peak Infinity Rankers.


‘Please block their attacks!' Everyone on the merchant ship prayed inwardly.


As everyone watched frantically, the four space pirates at Infinity Rank Peak smashed into the merchant ship at extreme speed.


BUM BUM BUM BUM!


Four loud explosions echoed in everyone's ears. However, the scene they had imagined did not appear. The merchant ship is still intact. Marlee and the others did not even feel the slightest jolt and jolt.


The four space pirates at the Peak Infinity Rank had great confidence that they could break through the merchant ship's final defenses with a single blow. Then, they would bring everything for themselves. However, when they touched the ship, they soon realized that they were not attacking the merchant ship.


This was definitely an unwavering military fortress. When their attacks fell onto the merchant ship, they were like ordinary people punching a mountain. Not only did they not shake the mountain at all, but instead, their bodies also flew backwards under an enormous force, indicating that they were powerless altogether.


The stronger their attack on the ship, the greater the strength of its reflection. In addition, David used a little trick secretly which caused all four to suffer serious injuries. As they flew back, everyone spewed blood.


The scene shocked everyone present. Not only was Marlee and the others stunned, even the three leading space pirates on the black warship were shocked as well.


The Four Peak Infinity Rankers not only failed to break through the merchant ship's defenses but were also heavily injured. What reason?


"What trade ship is in front of me? H-How is this possible? Did I see wrong? The all-out blows from the four Peak Infinity Rankers did not even shake the damned ship at all, and they were also injured? Is it a merchant ship or a mobile military fort?" One of the three leading space pirates asked in disbelief.


“Come, let's go together. I want to see how high the defensive power of this merchant ship is" Boss said with a grim face.


Inside the merchant ship, Marlee and the others had recovered from her shock.


“Nyo-Mrs Jung! It must be very difficult for you to hide this from us! You obviously have a strong defense, but you haven't told us all this time, leaving us very scared. I think we will all die facing the full force of the four Peak Infinity Rankers!” A Mid-Infinity Ranker man said as he forced to smile.


"really? Madam Jung, my little heart can't stand this kind of surprise. No matter how much money you give me in the future, I won't come back." added another.


None of them wanted to be bound and liked their freedom. They had only decided to come with the merchant ship of the Jung family to the Sacred Continent of the Center for money. After all, cultivation required a lot of resources.


If they did not want to join another army and were bound, they could only find a way to obtain resources on their own. The great benefits are often accompanied by great dangers. Everybody understands this.


However, when they finally made up their mind and prepared to fight to the death, all of a sudden, they had a glimmer of hope. It is difficult to change their mentality. If they were to face a desperate situation later, they might not be as firm as the first time.


“Everything, not that I don't want to tell you guys. Even if I tell you, will you believe me? If I tell you that this merchant ship has been specially modified by the Jung family to withstand the attack from the Peak Infinity Ranker, will you believe me?"


Marlee didn't wait for everyone to answer before she continued, “Even the Jung family members won't believe me, let alone you. Since you guys won't believe me, why should I bother telling you? Do you guys understand? After all, this is not the time to talk about this. If I'm not mistaken, the next stage will be the key point. The leader of this group of space pirates is about to start moving, and he should be in the realm of the Eternal Sect.


'The leader of this group of pirates will start taking action?' The hearts of those present stiffened at the same time.


Although most Eternals had yet to become Eternal, compared to the Peak Infinity Rank, he was definitely stronger. According to the division of the realm, most Eternals were no longer in the Universe Realm. They were at the transition realm above the Universe Realm, but below the Eternal Realm.


Even if there were ten Peak Infinity Rank, it was still impossible for them to be a partial opponent of Eternal. Both sides are no longer on the same level.


Sure enough, not long after Marlee had finished speaking, a rough-looking middle-aged man walked out of the black warship. He must be the leader of this group of space pirates. After the rude man came out, two more men came out and stood behind him.


The three men then stood together to face the merchant ship with killing intent in their eyes. When Marlee saw the three of them, her heart was filled with bitterness. The strength of the opponent was much greater than he had imagined.


Initially, he thought that this group of space pirates only had one partially Eternal person. Unexpectedly, they had three. How will they win?


One part of the Eternal could annihilate all of them, let alone three. Their only hope now was that the merchant ship's defense could continue its former glory and block the attacks of the three men's partial Eternals. As long as they can't get on board, Marlee and the others will be safe.


“You are so great, so great! You should feel proud that you can get the three of us out to attack you. Unfortunately, I want to tell you that this is the end" said the rude man in the lead, staring at the merchant ship where Marlee was.


“You should have only said those things after you managed to break through our defense. You're just a bunch of trash until your mom ignores you." reply Marlee directly.


Since the other party was their irreconcilable mortal enemy, he would not be courteous in the least.


“Do you think I can't do anything to you if you keep hiding in your shell? Although I didn't know you did, I'd like to tell you that the power of some Eternal is beyond your imagination."


“You talk too much nonsense, you trash!”


“Heh ..” The rude man sneered.


“Server them!”
