Michael's first goal was to attack the Genox Galaxy, one of the large galaxies under the Supre Human Alliance's control. It didn't border the Altors Union directly but was separated by a smaller galaxy. The smaller galaxy, nad Novix Galaxy, was neutral territory often conquered by Cosmos Beasts, pirates, and the like. Both the Altors Union and the Supre Human Alliance tried conquering the Novix Galaxy and claiming it as their land, but they always failed. The SHA tried claiming the Novix Galaxy six tis, yet it never worked out. After centuries of failed attempts, the Altors Union and Supre Human Alliance gave up on the Novix Galaxy. Of course, that didn't an they avoided it. The Hyumans and Altors Union still used the Novix Galaxy as their battlegrounds.
Michael chose to take advantage of that. He purchased a few Return Tokens from the Nest Leader and used a bridge to teleport to the Novix Galaxy.
It was one of the bridges Selena had installed more than a thousand years ago to support the Altors Union. It wouldn't be activated to help the Altors Union. Still, if Michael was going to wreak havoc in the rows of the Supre Human Alliance's defenses, he might as well trick them into believing that the Altors Union attacked them.
Michael wasn't in a rush, but he didn't think about traveling by foot or using Cosmic Stride without any augntations. He procured close to one million Superior Energy Stones over the course of several weeks, sucked them dry, and channeled their energy into the Compass Relic to use the relic at any ti. Michael's plan was simple. He would travel through the Novix Galaxy near the border to the Genox Galaxy to check the borders and the defensive lines before attacking. Michael wasn't worried about being found since he was alone and capable of concealing his energy fluctuations nearly perfectly. The traces of energy he couldn't conceal may expose him as a Divine Lifeform, but that was not a problem.
Even the most precise radar would only detect him as an ordinary Divine Lifeform. If the Supre Human Alliance chose to act against him, they may deploy a few ordinary Divine Lifeforms or one Elite to get rid of him. Michael could easily deal with that kind of threat.
His plan was simple, but Michael fleshed it out quickly. Once that was done, he used the bridge and disappeared. The Novix Galaxy was small but still a galaxy with nearly 4,000 planetary systems. That might not feel like a lot given that galaxies consisted of billions of stars, however, it was important to note that most stars were uninhabitable. Various factors made it impossible to civilize most stars by most races. Then again, many races could live in different environnts than others. Thus, the number of uninhabitable stars in a galaxy depended on the race, their level of technology, and many other factors.
The sizes of the 4,000ish planetary systems in the Novix Galaxy varied greatly. So systems had only three planets, while others contained up to several dozen. Important to note was that small tribes of Hyumans and mbers of the Altors Union chose to civilize smaller planets in certain systems bordering their holand.
Well, maybe it was also important to point out that several teorite rings swept through the Novix Galaxy, threatening to destroy all spaceships daring enough to get too close. The destruction of thousands of spaceships trying to cross the multi-layered teorite rings was also one of the few reasons the Altors Union and Supre Human Alliance stopped putting effort and resources into the Novix Galaxy. It was a calm place…or used to be.
Michael's arrival changed that.
He didn't approach the Altors Union or tell them what he was about to do. Instead, he traveled through the teorite ring with Cosmic Stride and studied the constellation of teorites, uninhabitable planets, and so forth. He discovered a manned fort near the teorite ring on the Supre Human Alliance's side and chose to have so fun with them.
The first thing he did was accumulate enough energy by using Swallow Domain to devour the surrounding energy in a radius of several dozen kiloters. The batches of teorites in Swallow Domain's range were also consud, but Michael didn't transform them into energy using Permute.
He kept them in the Swallow Domain storage, inched closer to the manned fortress, and used Cosmic Stride to unleash the stored teorites. Michael gave the teorites a little push with a massive burst of energy while increasing their durability using Greater Enhancent. The teorites transford into a massive, oversized cannonball that teleported tens of kiloters through space, only to appear a few kiloters away from the manned fortress of the Supre Human Alliance.
The fortress might have been manned, but the guards weren't prepared for an attack. It had been decades since anyone crossed the teorite ring. Even the Cosmos Beasts didn't bother attacking them anymore, knowing it wasn't worth the effort. But an unknown force attacked them out of nowhere.
The guards tried to respond, but sothing went wrong when the Hyuman Captain, a Divine Lifeform, appeared before the first teorite. Energy coursed through his body like a brewing storm, but the mont he was about to crush the incoming teorites with brute force, he froze.
Michael's golden eyes flickered like a predator's eyes. That was because they'd shifted into serpentine eyes. Michael had exerted Basilisk Eyes using Seer with Unlimited Enhancent. It consud a trendous amount of Soullife Energy and Soul Energy to use both Unlimited Enhancent and Basilisk Eyes, but the effect was notable. The Divine Lifeform froze and didn't crush the incoming teorites. On the contrary, the teorites crashed into the Divine Lifeform and continued on their tracks.
The batches of teorites crashed heavily into the Hyuman Fortress, but a protection do blocked most attacks. That was until Michael used Insert with a trace of Beast God Poison. He inserted Jormungandr's poison into the protection do, shattering it instantly.
It was unknown to Michael how the guards in the Hyuman Fortress reacted, but he imagined them screaming and running around like headless chickens as the last teorites of the batches pushed through the last layers of defense. They crashed heavily into the fortress, destroying everything in one go.
The teorites impacted heavily and crushed the thick walls, protecting the fortress from harm from the outside. They could block smaller teorites without sustaining major damage, but Michael's teorites were faster and more durable than the norm. Their impact punctured the heavily reinforced tal, exposing the Hyuman Fortress to the dangers of the teorite ring.
Watching his artificially created teorite shower was interesting, but too many Hyumans survived the attack. The space might reap their lives in the near future, maybe a few days if they were lucky, however, that was too long. They could warn the Supre Human Alliance, which wasn't sothing Michael wanted to happen.
He wanted the Supre Human Alliance to find out about his attack soon. However, he didn't want the Supre Human Alliance to know what Soultraits had been used to attack the fortress or how many people had attacked.
That was why he jumped into action, perfectly wearing a mask and concealing his curse power. He used True Extraction Domain once to extract the last remnants of his curse power usage before descending into the Hyuman Fortress.
The tale of the Lone Hunter was about to begin.
