The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast

Chapter 779 - 524: Demon Cultivators Gather_3

"It is said that its initial design concept was to be used as a booster for launching Ethereum fusion bombs, with a maximum effective range of over a million kilometers."

"But later, due to its low stability and its tendency to explode, it’s not suitable for launching such devastating weapons. If additional central controls and safety measures were added, the cost would become too high, so this system was abandoned."

"Then why bother using it?"

Lin Guang tilted his head: "Because people in the equipment department found it could be used to launch Six-Star and above Spirit Masters, which is very useful for saving energy and time on the road."

"A change of perspective, even without installing central controls and safety measures, an existence at the True Master Level can achieve this on its own, and launching them is more environmentally friendly, plus they would return home on their own."

"......"*4

Vishdair couldn’t help but comment: "So originally, people from Longteng University would ride missiles when going out? They really don’t see us as people."

Lin Guang continued explaining: "It’s said there’s even a ’Longteng Ten’ that can launch Director Jing Ning, helping Seven-Star Spirit Masters from the Thunder Division known for their speed to travel, as well as a ’Longteng One Hundred’ that only exists in plans."

"It’s not going to launch that person, is it..."

"In any case, at the current speed, it’ll take about two days to arrive."

However, in the next moment, the boy’s voice suddenly softened, causing the four girls to pause slightly.

He said quietly, "Prepare mentally; what I showed you might just be the tip of the iceberg."

"That place is far from peaceful."

"Furthermore... I have a strong premonition."

In his eyes, a complex, spiritual ancient script flickered uncertainly.

[Pre]

"Our first international mission won’t be simple at all."

...

Great Yue Country.

Outside the border.

On the barren red plain.

On the fourth day around noon after a call for help had been sent out.

The scorching sun baked the barren brown rocks, causing the air to twist from the heat, blurring the distant scenery.

At the center of the rock formation.

A thin, robed monk sat cross-legged like a boulder on the back of an ivory giant elephant. His face was calm as he continued chanting ancient scriptures that no one could understand, his expression unchanged.

But the golden radiance of the array constructed with spiritual power and ether emitted by him had noticeably dimmed compared to four days ago.

At this moment, if one looked further out, centering on the exposed rock bed and stretching outward for one kilometer, one would see a black mass of people surrounding this place.

The encirclement had several layers.

On the innermost layer, just a step away from the array, many imposing Spirit Masters dressed in extravagant clothing stood adorned with sparkling jewels, with their contracted Spirit Beasts also released.

These were the leaders of many surrounding city forces, wealthy, and even setting up camps here for temporary settlement.

Behind them were their entourages, soldiers, and followers, most of whom were also Spirit Masters. Contracted Spirit Beasts huddled behind them, a grand sight.

There seemed to be some precaution between each force, keeping them from approaching each other, dividing the frontmost areas based on strength.

In addition, though smaller in number, there were stout and strong individuals also possessing contracted Spirit Beasts. Their eyes carried the bold courage of desperados, forming groups of three to five, keeping vigilant distance from other teams, clearly seasoned wilderness mercenaries.

Yet...

On the outermost layer, the majority was composed of ragged, emaciated commoners.

Many had already collapsed under the scorching heat, even dying on the spot, without anyone to collect their bodies.

Yet, there were still many remaining.

The gazes of these mortals also burned with an almost insane desire and obsession.

No matter who it was, everyone’s eyes were fixed on the twisted space rift at the center of the array, and the thin figure seated on the giant elephant.

Most of them even harbored resentment and hostility.

—Why obstruct us?

—Why stop us on the only path to reverse our fate?!

Just then.

A spine-chilling sinister laughter seemed to echo directly from deep within everyone’s soul present.

"Hehehehe... Fasun, why go through this trouble?"

An unforeseen bone-chilling gust swept through, abruptly lowering the temperature of this plain, as if even the sun’s light was obscured by an invisible shadow.

Mara Kiblan appeared once more.

She seemed entirely refreshed, brimming with energy. Her clothes bore several times more translucent distorted soul faces, accompanied by afterimages and faint wails.

Those Four-Star and Five-Star Spirit Masters showed indescribable fear, immediately retreating.

She chuckled lightly, standing in mid-air above Fasun: "See, so many people have traveled thousands upon thousands of miles for this unprecedented Tier Six Secret Realm."

"Do you really have the heart to keep them out?"

"You are the one obstructing the grand trend."

She chuckled lightly.

"Besides... some old friends have also arrived."

"Once they arrived, how many of these people could still survive?"

"Had you let me in earlier and united with me to loot the inside, wouldn’t this tragedy have been prevented?"

Her tone was exceedingly playful: "Ah, for your futile insistence, you’ve caused such slaughter of innocents... Now, even the Buddha must close his eyes."

As soon as she finished speaking.

Almost as if agreed upon, three equally malevolent auras suddenly descended.

The sky southeast turned dark green without warning, black clouds forming, exuding a nauseating foul miasma.

Northwest.

A thick blood rain began to fall from the sky.

On the ground directly north, a colossal creature appeared, casting a long shadow as if boiling over.

Three calamitous figures seemed to surge within these phenomenons.
