292 The Ten Behemoths Of The Omega Galaxy

"That fast!" Blurted out Ling Chen with a surprised expression on his face.

According to commander Merak, they were going to the Verid Star, the capital of the Verid Empire which was several hundred light-years away from their location. Yet, it only took them two hours or so to get there. Just how fast they were flying?

"It seems like, despite the mountainous size of this battleship, it's still several times faster than the Dark Pegasus battleship." Ling Chen added.

If the Dark Pegasus battleship was as fast as this colossal golden warship, their journey from the 9th Ring of the Chaos Universe to the 8th Ring of the Chaos Universe would have reduced by several years.

"The Dark Pegasus battleship was an old model from more than ten thousand years ago. So, it's not surprising that its speed was several times slower than the newest battleships such as Golden Titan Warship."

"We don't even make that model battleship anymore. The one you had was probably the last. Furthermore, even among the newest battleships produced by the Verid Empire, the Golden Titan Warship is the fastest and the strongest."Explained commander Merak with a prideful look on his face.

"No wonder." Answered Ling Chen with a slight smile on his face.

Even though Ling Chen only spent a few minutes talking with commander Merak, he was able to extract all the useful information he could get about the Verid Empire as well as Omega Galaxy from his mind.

Despite being a 1st Life Transition Heavenly Deity Realm warrior or a War Lord level warrior as they called it in the Verid Empire, commander Merak's soul power was extremely weak to the point where it didn't seem like the soul power of a Heavenly Deity Rank warrior.

As such, it was very easy for Ling Chen to read his mind and extract all the information he could from his mind without him noticing anything.

According to the information he was able to gather from the commander's Merak mind, the Omega Galaxy was dominated by ten major influences known as the Ten Behemoths.

They were the Kagon Empire, the Omega Galaxy Bank, The Magical Beast Empire, the Omega Mercenary Alliance, the Black Moon Conglomerate, the Blue Winged-Tribe, the Bahal Family, the Red Dragon Chamber of Commerce, the Ramasha Empire, and the Verid Empire.

Each one of these ten major influences had absolute dominion and control over several hundred and even thousands of solar systems within the Omega Galaxy.

Among the Ten Behemoths, the Verid Empire was the weakest with only three hundred solar systems under its rule and over a hundred thousand life planets.

Aside from the ten major influences, there were so some powerful dark organizations that were only slightly below or even comparable to the Ten Behemoths such as the Night Owl Guild which was an assassination organization.

"Mr. Chen, come with me. We will take a small soaring shuttle to enter the Verid Star. The Golden Titan Warships along with the other battleship still have to return to the military base." Commander Merak added with a respectful tone as he stood up and walked toward the front door of the private room.

"Sure." Answered Ling Chen nonchalantly as he followed behind commander Merak.

After reading the memories of commander Merak, Ling Chen knew that the flood of battleships that ambushed him at the edge of the Omega Galaxy didn't come from the Verid Star.

They all came from a secret military base that was located on a small planet the size of the Great Luo World at the edge of the Omega Galaxy.

The entire planet was used as a military base. There weren't any civilians living there. Everyone was part of the military. Furthermore, it was one of their thousands of military bases.

After leaving the private room, commander Merak along with Ling Chen took a small elevator that went all the way down the first floor of the Golden Titan Warship.

From there, they walked for another five minutes They entered a large room that was filled with several black and white soaring shuttles.

Each one of them was several meters long and looked like giant whales due to their shape.

"These are private Soaring Shuttles. They aren't equipped with any weapons like the other ones. We only use them when we have to transport important guests like yourself, Mr.Chen."Commander Merak said with a respectful look on his face as he opened the door of the shuttle signaling Ling Chen to get in.

"I'm honored." Answered Ling Chen with a slight smile on his face.

The soaring shuttle was very spacious. Other than the front row, the back row was like a resting lounge. There were numerous giant soft couches and small tables. There were was also something called a refrigerator filled with many foods and fruits inside.

Even though it was Ling Chen's first using a small soaring shuttle, he knew everything about them through the memories of commander Merak. As such, he didn't look that surprised when he saw all those interesting new things.

With the knowledge and information that Ling Chen was able to acquire from commander Merak's mind, he was no different than someone who has been living in the Verid Empire for thousands of years.

Whether it was the Verid Empire and the other Behemoths of the Omega Galaxy, he already knew a lot about all of them. He even knew some secrets about the Verid Empire which were unknown to the public.

The only reason he obediently followed commander Merak was that he wanted to use the Verid Empire as his first stepping stone.

After entering the soaring shuttle, Ling Chen sat on one of the couches by himself while the commander was in the front row along with some other soldiers.

Swoosh!

Soon, a giant door opened on the right side of the Golden Titan Warship and the small shuttle flew out of it.

'What a big planet!' Inwardly thought Ling Chen as he was looking at the giant planet in the distance through the widow of the soaring shuttle with a surprised expression on his face.

Even though he already knew that Verid Star was massive through the memories of commander Merak, he was still unable to hide his astonishment after seeing it with his own eyes. It was at least a hundred times bigger than the Great Luo World.
