An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being - Chapter 296

Episode 296: Annihilation(Third Party Perspective)

“At this time, we Lizardrians will depart to invade Earth!! Board the ship!!”

“”Yes!!””

 On a dock as large as the Tokyo Dome, thousands of Lizardman-type humanoid creatures, wearing uniforms with a white base, are lined up neatly in a rectangular shape.

 At the command of a Lizardrian standing in front of them, they board multiple space battleships that appear in science fiction. After boarding is completed, dozens of fleets of space battleships take off from the dock one after another.

“Commander-in-Chief. The deployment of the fleet has been completed.”

“Umu. Start the warp engines and proceed to warp navigation as planned!!”

“Yes!!”

 The bridge of the flagship that advances to the rear of the fleet.

 After receiving reports from his subordinates, the Commander-in-Chief issues the following instructions: if you warp, you can shortcut a distance of several light years. It is this technology that allows them to reach Earth in a matter of days.

 The subordinates send orders to the entire fleet via communication, and move to warp navigation with a signal.

 Just when it seemed the leading battleship suddenly accelerates, it disappears with a momentary sparkle. The ships that follow also disappear one after another into the black sea of space.

 They spend several days sailing while cooling the warp engines several times.

 They finally arrive just before the space where the Earth is located.

“We will move to normal navigation from now on. Don’t let your guard down!!”

“Yes!”

 It’s too dangerous to get too close with warp, so from a certain distance, they proceed while watching the situation with normal navigation.

 The Lizardrians learned from the last painful counterattack and prepared the best ships and the best elite troops for this invasion.

 With a shield fleet that boasts overwhelming defensive performance at the head, it raises its defensive power so that it will not be a problem even if it is hit by a high-output energy cannon at any time, and the attack fleet is equipped with weapons that can easily conquer the ground.

 There is no gap anywhere.

 This operation is put into action with a perfect lineup as far as anyone can imagine.

 However, it is only until this moment that they think so.

“Urgent!! Urgent!! A huge amount of energy is approaching us at the speed of light!!”

“What the hell!! Dodge immediately!! Send a message to the other ships as soon as possible.”

“Yes!”

 On the flagship’s bridge, one of his subordinates suddenly reports to the Commander with a blaring alarm, the impending energy is projected onto a floating translucent monitor.

 Following the Commander’s instructions, the fleet takes evasive action.

“C, Commander!! The energy wave is too fast to avoid!!”

“No way …”

 However, the light reflected on the monitor quickly approaches in front of their eyes, and it is no longer possible to avoid it.

 The Commander is stunned speechless.

“Haa!? We can’t run away anymore!! Contact the main star immediately!!”

“Y … Yes!!”

 The Commander freezes for a moment, but soon returns to his senses.

 He will not be able to return alive, but he will at least give instructions to send the information. A few seconds later, the fleet is swallowed up by a torrent of light and disappears without a trace.

“No way!!”

 In one of the rooms of the main star, an aged Lizardrian slams his hand against the futuristic desk and stands up.

“Annihilation!? It’s annihilation!?”

 It was the last data sent from the flagship of the fleet to invade Earth. What was written there was that the fleet would be annihilated, and that the cause was a huge energy wave coming from a certain direction on Earth.

 It was written that the preparations, which should have been perfect, had no success at all, and that they would be destroyed in an instant.

“Is that planet really that much of a threat …”

 The Earth was found to be no threat in the preliminary survey. Despite this, both the invading force and the invading fleet of his own country were completely defeated.

 He doesn’t even know how exactly they found out about their invasion plan. This time, for some reason, they were blocked.

 The aged Lizardrian makes a decision.

“We may have dabbled in something we shouldn’t have … If this is the case, we won’t be able to say goodbye.

 After talking to himself, the aged Lizardrian heads for the center of the planet to advise them to stop the invasion of Earth.

 On the other hand, around that time.

 The enormous energy wave that easily wiped out the fleet draws a straight line and rushes through the pitch-dark, endless glowing space without losing momentum.

 However, a huge rock appears to block the progress of the light. The rock is as big as a planet. A third person would think that the light and the rock would collide and cause an explosion.

-Paan!

 However, no such explosion occurs, and the moment the light collides with the rock, the rock disappears without a trace, and the light continues on without incident.

[ Kishaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! ]

 After pushing forward for a while, a huge monster appears next. A jet-black body and a strange figure that appears in the Cthulhu mythos. It seems to be making a threatening sound, but the voice does not resound in space.

 The monster senses danger from the huge amount of light that suddenly appears in front of it, and takes evasive action.

-Juu!

 However, the light is too fast and the streak of light is too big. Unable to escape, it is easily swallowed by the torrent of light and disappears without a trace, just like the previous rock.

-Paan!

-Juu!

-Paan!

-Juu!

 Even after erasing the monster, every time an obstacle appears in front of the light, it will explode and melt into the darkness of the universe.

 The light goes on forever.
