Waiting for more than an hour, Lilo finally got her final form. The Star Beasts looked at Lilo in amazement, they couldn't speak but could communicate instinctively, especially with Lilo. Somehow Star Beasts can understand Lilo, usually, Star Beasts can only understand fellow Star Beasts.
Lilo's current body was the same size as before, but his eight legs had become longer, his back was covered in a black smooth layer and the lower body was cream-colored, the fat folds of his body had completely disappeared.
But the most important thing is that his face is still cute with a round mouth. Lilo stood straight on his four legs looking at Astrum with a smile. Astrum was very relieved that Lilo didn't have an accident and he was very impressed with Lilo's new body.
Lilo showed some of the things he got from the metamorphosis, He growled and suddenly a change occurred. Lilo became very large, previously only the size of an adult dog, now he change his body become 5 meters. But it didn't stop there, it growled again and changed again. Being small the size of a mouse, with this metamorphosis Lilo can change his body size at will. Astrum is very happy to see Lilo's new ability.
..
During the few days Astrum tested Lilo's new abilities, he found Lilo could change the size of any body part at will. With this ability, Lilo's speed and strength grew rapidly. Astrum tests his strength by asking Lilo to hit a large rock, in one simple attack the stone shatters into pieces.
After three days passed peacefully, today Astrum and Lilo are ready to harvest materials from the previous planet. Everyone is assembled, the plane has been repaired, and can depart at any time. Sidius plans to bring half of the troops to help in harvesting the materials and the other half to keep guarding the home planet.
When Astrum met Bidarra and Hirudarra, he was surprised to see their bodies grow so big. He realized this change must be the effect of the growth fruits.
"You guys ate the fruit?"
They nodded and smiled.
"You got growth from the fruit?"
"Of course, as long as we are beasts. The fruit improves our physique, unfortunately it doesn't increase star power" Hiru replied with a slight sigh.
"Master, if I may allow us to bring some of these fruits. This fruit can be of benefit to our clan in Nexor" Hiru pleaded with Astrum, as they did not dare to rashly take anything from this planet without the permission of its owner.
"Oh…, just take it, the trees here still bear the fruit." Astrum allowed them to bring the fruits.
John and Ave just saw Lilo's transformation, they were very surprised. They spent three days researching the growth fruit, so they didn't see Lilo during those three days.
"Astrum, what happened to Lilo?" Ave approached Lilo while observing all sides of his new form.
Astrum tells what happened about the phenomenon of Lilo's change which is the effect of the fruit growth. Ave was very amazed by this phenomenon, he wanted to immediately research Lilo. But she realized that Lilo was a friend of Astrum and it was impossible to separate them, so he gave up her interest. She decided to research other animals that had eaten the fruit.
John approached Astrum and gave a few words.
"Astrum, be careful over there and don't be rash. Follow Uncle Sidius' orders."
John and Ave this time will not participate in harvesting the material. They were asked to remain on this planet to guard even though their condition had fully recovered.
They were ready to enter the plane, but suddenly Stella felt something coming.
"There is a spaceship is approaching our planet," she said seriously, looking up into the sky.
"Zax's army? Why did they come here?" Sidius also sensed the presence of the enemy spaceship.
This time there was a spaceship that was larger than the previous spaceship, entered the planet's atmosphere, and flew at high speed until it finally came to a stop in the vicinity of the Astrum group's location.
The spaceship was hovering at an altitude of 100 meters at their location. There was a female figure on the outer deck of the spaceship, her appearance was similar to Bolx's but had a stronger aura. Gazing scornfully at Astrum's group, the gaze changed as he scanned the surroundings. His eyes twitched at the sight of Bolx being tied to the stake.
"Ha.. Ha…, You're all finished!" Blox shouted happily seeing his help coming.
"You called them?" Sidius asked with a face full of killing intent.
"Solux, be careful, they have…"
"Bugh!!!"
Before Bolx could finish his sentence there was a hard smack in his stomach and Bolx instantly lost consciousness. It turned out that Bidarra hit his stomach really hard and stopped Bolx from conveying intel to Solux.
"Low beast! How dare you hit your master!" The woman's voice sounded loud from the outer deck.
"Sir? Puih! Come down here, let me show you who is master and slave." Bidarra showed anger toward Solux.
Currently, Stella and Sidius were hiding their levels, they were weighing the enemy's strength first. Use their perception to read the level and number of enemies on the plane.
"That woman is only at level 25, and there are 100 people on the spaceship" Sidius whispered to Stella.
"Wait, I sensed there was another one, it looks like Insignia too. But its existence is very thin, let's wait a moment" Stella realized there was one more that had not been detected.
The two planes landed only 100 meters from the Astrum group's position, the plane's gate opened and a large number of troops exited the spaceship.
"Who are you guys? Why are you meddling in our affairs?" Solux asked fiercely.
"Who are you! Dare to come here and be arrogant like that!" John replied.
"Low creatures! You don't need to know who I am!"
"Oh, apparently you are an undisclosed bastard," John said those words very loudly.
Solux just looked at John with a strange look and anger. She looked at the Astrum group, seeing that they were outnumbered by his army. She was wary of Sidius and Stella. Seeing that Sidius's color was Gold and Stella's was Cyan, she was a little confused.
"Apparently there is Fugitive Starian here! Hey, you! Cyan Starian, why are you cooperating with a fugitive!" the question was directed to Stella.
"You're asking me?" Stella just answered innocently.
"Is there really another Cyan Staran other than you!!"
Stella just ignores Solux's shout.
"Who do you mean by fugitive?" Sidius asked fiercely.
"Oh… it turns out that there is a deserter Starian who is cooperating with a fugitive," Solux replied antipathically, seeing that the two Starians were very close.
She tried to scan Sidius and Stella's levels using her perception power. Stella and Sidius realized that there was Solux using his perception, then they deliberately lowered their level to level 18.
"Hahaha! A lowly Starian, with only level 18, and apparently there are some Insignias here too." Solux's power of perception seems to be higher than Bolx's. She can read John and Ave Insignia, even though John and Ave haven't activated their star powers.
Pointed at Astrum's group and said casually.
"Attack them, catch them alive."
The troops behind Solux emitted purple light from their eyes and immediately dashed towards Astrum's group. This is a war of 100 against 24, a very disproportionate number.
Astrum has already printed glyphs for his parents, which he doesn't use for himself. He is more concerned with taking care of his parents. Bi and Hiru were already at the forefront with their large bodies covering the troops behind them.
"You take 10 on the right and I 10 on the left" Hiru said to Bi. Bi just nodded as a sign of approval, a smile plastered on their face. They were eager to try out the new enhanced physical strength.
Sidius and Stella just stood at the back of the troops, watching this war situation. Clashes were inevitable, the enemy troops charged fiercely towards Astrum's group.
Astrum did not rush rashly, he chose to be close to his parents. This time Lilo moved quickly with his new body, he pounced on the enemy troops like he saw food. He hit the enemy troops one by one and sucked the soul leeches from them, Lilo's suction speed had grown tremendously; in just a few seconds he had managed to bring down 5 troop personnel.
Due to the unequal numbers, Sidius and Stella ended up taking part in this confrontation. Sidius and Stella only fought with their physical strength without using any star power at all. Even without the Starian race's already very strong physical power, in just a few steps already 20 troops fell and were unconscious.
Right now the battle situation was in Astrum's favor, half the enemy troops had already fallen and only a few troops from Astrum's group had fallen. Solux realizes that the enemy's strength is very strong, realizing why Bolx can be defeated and captured by them. She watched the battle from a distance, looking for the weak points of the Astrum group.
During this time she continued to pay attention to the conditions of war, she realized that there were teenagers who could use the power of stars. But the scan with the power of her perception did not find any Insignia on Astrum. She had his suspicions but in the end, he decided that the child would be her target.
She thought capturing the weakest part of the enemy army was a wise decision. With Astrum caught then they would give up easily. Moreover, around that child, there are only two Insignias with level 19. The two Insignias in she mean were John and Ave.
She started to move, took out 30 centimeters long knife-shaped weapon from her waist, and prepared to ambush Astrum. Running as fast as the wind, twisting avoiding the fight.
Astrum was currently in a physical battle with no star power at all, this was pure raw fighting. Somehow he liked it so much, a vicious smile appeared on his lips. In an instant, he felt the presence of a great presence approaching him.
"Slashes!" The blade slash hit Astrum from behind. The slash was very deadly, even the air was cut by the slash. If it was hit, the target would probably split open.
