Swallowed Star - Chapter 159 Return to the Headquarter City
PU! PU!
The golden masked man had blades that were as thin as a cicadaâs wing in each hand, as if they were transparent ice blades. They cruelly collided with the approaching black purplish vine.
Immediately, shockwaves visible to the naked eye flew in every direction. The trees below that seemed to touch the sky were all smashed into pieces by these shockwaves. Even Vulture Li Yao, Blood Shadow Ethan, and Great Bear Keita were running in a panic. If they accidently get caught up in this fight, theyâll instantly die!
âWhat!â Luo Feng was shocked.
Under the attack of the two ice blades, the black purplish vine that had a diameter of 20 cm was barely cut open a depth of 1 cm. However, this wound instantly healed in virtually a blink of an eye.
âLetâs goâ investigator Liu pulled Luo Feng.
Luo Feng didnât resist and immediately flew into the distance with investigator LiuâŠâŠ as for that black purplish vine, it was busy chasing after the golden masked man with everything it had, so it didnât have time to chase after Luo Feng and the others.
âGet on the fighter jetâ yelled investigator Liu.
Whoosh!
The purplish red triangular fighter jet that was hovering in the distance directly flew over and opened its hatch.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Investigator Liu and Luo Feng flew into the triangular fighter jet like two lights.
Inside the triangular fighter jet was darkness.
Luo Feng and investigator Liu looked out the hatch while the fighter jet flew away, creating distance between them and the black purplish vine.
HUALA! The hatch closed.
âDisplay Ice Mountainâs battleâ ordered investigator Liu.
CHIââ
A video instantly appeared in the dark cabin, which was indeed displaying the battle that was currently happening above the misty island. This video was much more clear than what the naked eye could perceive. In the video, the golden masked man was the only person left in the air above the misty island. And he was still being chased by that vine!
The golden masked man was as fast as lightning as he escaped.
âPA!â a sky shattering sound.
The vine actually whipped like a whip. That dark purplish vine that was over 1,000 meters long whipped ferociously. When it retracted and then extended, it caused an amazing sonic boom! Even after the sound went through the hatch of the plane, Luo Feng felt like a bomb just blew up next to his ears.
âSuch a long vine can whip people?â investigator Liu couldnât help but to sigh, âIf Ice Mountain gets whipped, itâs overâ
âInvestigator Liu, are we just going to watch?â asked Luo Feng.
Theyâre all part of the Dojo of Limits. Are they just going to watch their ally get attacked?
âLuo Feng, royal guard Ice Mountainâs strength is even a bit higher than mine. And his escaping abilities are much better than mine! Heâs a royal guard of the head, so the head has taught them various methods to keep their lives. If I go? Iâll just make things worseâ investigator Liu wasnât in a rush at all, âDonât worry, this one vine still canâtââNOT GOOD!â
Investigator Liuâs face changed dramatically.
Luo Feng also took in a deep breath as he stared at the display!
âRUMBLE~~â
In the video, the entire misty island rumbled. Another black purplish vine that you couldnât see the end of swiftly extended out of the mist. Now there are two black purplish vinesâŠ.. no! The entire misty island rumbled as a third black purplish vine that seemed to stretch across the land extended out of the mist.
A fourth vine! A fifth vine!
The naked eye couldnât tell how long each vine was, but they were definitely over 1,000 meters long. And each vine had a black purplish color and had a diameter of 20 cm. They were all extremely tough. Even existences surpassing the wargod levelâŠ.. canât do anything against them.
âBig troubleâ investigator Liuâs face turned green.
Above the misty island, the vines that pierced through the heavens were like the tentacles of the misty island. They crazily danced from every direction as they surrounded the golden masked man! The golden masked man was extremely fast. One movement of his body could move him across a distance of a few hundred meters. With this, he should be able to shake off the vines easily.
However, the vines themselves were too peculiar!
They could freely twist and move! They moved so quickly that they left behind tons of afterimages, not allowing the golden masked man to escape at all.
At this momentââ
In the video, the six vines crazily danced in the air above the misty island. The golden masked man barely dodged each of their attacks.
âAccording to the computerâs calculations, each of these vinesâŠ.. has a length of over 1,600 meters! Their extending, retracting, and moving speeds are over 1,000 m/sâ investigator Liuâs face wasnât looking good, âTheir toughness is comparable to an average emperor level monster. The worst part is, they have extraordinary regeneration capabilities, their wounds can heal instantlyâ
Luo Feng silently watchedâŠâŠ
The six vines in the video were working together perfectly. As they attacked over and over again, they naturally and quickly forced the golden masked man into a corner.
âBOOM!â
âWHATâ Luo Feng and investigator Liu were both flabbergasted.
Under the attacks of the six black purplish vines, the extremely tiny golden masked man instantly transformed into a white light. He was extremely fastâŠ.. and virtually instantly escaped the area where the six vines were attacking. This white light was currently flying towards the triangular fighter jet with amazing speed.
HUALA! The hatch opened!
The white light slowed down and became a humanâs image. It charged into the hatch, which closed right after.
âReturn to HQâ yelled investigator Liu.
WHOOSH!
The purplish red triangular fighter jet immediately turned into a purplish red light as it disappeared into the horizon. The only things left were the black purplish vines that were crazily dancing above the misty island, as if they were enraged.
âŠ..
Inside the cabin.
âIce Mountain, are you okay?â investigator Liu assisted the golden masked man.
The golden masked man sat on the chair with his eyes closed, his breath was weak. He said lowly: âNo worries, Liu He, Iâm not going to die yet! I just used my forbidden essence move, which damages the body too much. I need to go back and rest for a while this timeâ
Investigator Liu finally let out a sigh of relief.
âIce Mountain, what forbidden move, can you teach me?â investigator Liu couldnât help but to ask. Itâs not that he doesnât understand the rules, but the speed royal guard Ice Mountain displayed when escaping was just too startling. Even though he doesnât have any strength to fight back afterwardsâŠâŠ. this move is definitely a lifesaver.
âYou?â
âI spent nearly five years giving various treasures and wealth to the head. Only after that did the head spend quite a bit of time creating a life saving move for me based off of the characteristics of my essenceâ Ice Mountain glanced at investigator Liu, âThe characteristics of your essence isnât the same as mine, so you canât learn itâ
Investigator Liu shook his head helplessly.
He understood tooâŠâŠ
If you supply enough wealth and treasure to the head, the head will help his subordinates create a special move. However, something like that takes up a lot of energy and time, so the payment required is also startling.
âI just got this âUniverse levelâ auto jet, which costed me quite a bit of moneyâ investigator Liu couldnât help but to shake his head.
âAuto jet?â Luo Feng couldnât help but to say, âThis fighter jet doesnât need any crew members and can move by itself?â. Way too advanced, heâs never seen any fighter jet like that. Furthermore, Luo Feng completely experienced how advanced this fighter jetâs AI was just now.
âYea. This is the âUniverse levelâ auto jet. Just the materials required to build this is uncountableâ investigator Liu couldnât help but to get a bit proud, âDuring crucial times, I can control it to block emperor level attacks. Even an emperor level monster canât destroy this fighter jet! The materials itâs made out of are way better than the ones in a SS grade weaponâ
Luo Feng was dumbfounded.
Isnât that too much? A fighter jetâs materials are better than a SS grade weaponâs? Luo Feng has finally experienced for himself how extravagant the âexistences surpassing the wargod levelâ are.
âHowever, that vine attacks by wrapping around its target, so my auto jet wonât be able to do much against thatâ investigator Liu shook his head. After that, he smiled as he glanced at Luo Feng, âLuo Feng, according to youâve done this time, youâll definitely receive a huge reward, which would be enough to buy a Universe level auto jet. MaybeâŠâŠ you can even buy the highest level âPrehistoric levelâ auto jet. A prehistoric level auto jet, got that? Thatâs the jet that the head rides on. Its defense is incredible and it even has a laser cannon on itâ
Luo Feng remained silentâŠâŠ
Heâs not that dumb.
This timeâs harvest is clearly gigantic. A thousand year willow heart is more valuable than a portion of dragon blood, and what about a ten thousand year willow heart? Adding to that, âroyal guard Ice Mountainâ has a huge bag of spirits of nature. Heâll definitely receive an incredible amount of money. Would he waste all of that money to buy a fighter jet?
âIce Mountain, howâs this times harvestâ investigator Liu couldnât help but to ask.
As if heâs feeling slightly better, Ice Mountain opened his eyes and took a glance: âHuge, very hugeâ
Investigator Liu couldnât help but to ask: âI count as a contributor this time too right?â
âHmph, all you did was hold back that representative Farrâ said royal guard Ice Mountain lightly, âThe harvesters of a spirit of nature mission only receive 30% of the total wealth. If I sugarcoat it, youâll barely be able to get 5%. Luo Feng got the ten thousand year willow heart and 2 thousand year willow hearts, so heâll barely get 5% too probably. I get 20%â
Investigator Liu said nothing. He indeed didnât really do anything.
âA ten thousand year willow heart and 2 thousand year willow hearts only gets 5%?â investigator Liu couldnât help but to ask.
âWhat do you know!â
Royal guard Ice Mountain laughed lightly, âJust from what I harvested, there are 92 spirits of nature. Over six of them are more valuable than the ten thousand year willow heartâ
Luo Feng and investigator Liu both took in a breath.
That amount of wealth is staggering. This misty island sure is a treasure island, giving birth to so many spirits of nature.
âThe most valuable thing is that vineâ royal guard Ice Mountain brought his voice down, âI first sensed how much energy that vine had before attacking it, but who wouldâve thought that I only sensed a small portion of it. The entire vine is over 2,000 meters long. FurthermoreâŠâŠ I estimate that the vine is only a part of a certain spirit of nature, since there were six vines chasing after me in the endâ
âSoâââ
âThere is an incredible spirit of nature on that misty islandâ said royal guard Ice Mountain quietly, âThatâs where the largest treasure is. When I ran away, I sent the scene of battle to the head. The head will probably personally move out for thisâ
âThe head will personally move out?â
Investigator Liu and Luo Feng both nodded.
Indeed, if those six black purplish vines were merely a part of a certain spirit of nature, then the misty islandâs most powerful spirit of natureâŠ.. isnât a presence thatâs easy to mess with.
