They didn't need to maintain any airs, and their various exclamations were very direct.

But it was true, who could have thought that Lin Qi's methods would be so terrifying?

"Go!"

Fu Xuan gave a positive reply.

After all, no matter what, she was almost there, not just setting off.

Since she was already here, she had to take a look before leaving.

Not to mention anything else, even if it was just to tell Lin Qi that the Alliance hadn't forgotten him as a friend and was still concerned about his safety, brushing up her presence in front of Lin Qi was also a good choice.

It wouldn't be a wasted trip.

After the order was given, the fleet continued to advance.

Soon.

They arrived at the last section of the star track.

After a short jump, Fu Xuan took a skiff and arrived at the Jarilo star system.

After a little monitoring, she saw wreckage all over space.

It was clear that a great battle had just taken place here.

Fu Xuan was about to give an order, but the Diviner operating the fleet below had already exclaimed in a hurry.

"Master Diviner, there is an unidentified flying object approaching rapidly!"

"Bad! It has already broken through to the flank of the fleet!"

"No. 003 battle ship, energy shield hit by an unknown beam, the shield is dissolving!"

Attacked as soon as appearing in the Jarilo star system?

Fu Xuan was the Master Diviner after all, her brain turned fast.

She quickly realized that this attack could not have come from the Wingweavers.

Not to mention whether they still had the will to fight when their homeland was turned to ashes, just based on Fu Xuan's experience, the Wingweavers' technical level could not break through the Xianzhou's defense line so quickly.

So, did this attack come from Lin Qi?

After figuring it out, Fu Xuan hurriedly asked her subordinates to send a signal out.

Sure enough, after the signal was sent, that mecha-like thing finally stopped and did not continue to launch an attack on the Luo Fu fleet.

Fu Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time.

A contact request was sent over.

After connecting, it was a somewhat familiar voice.

"So it's Master Diviner Fu, I almost slashed the wrong person. I thought it was some blind guy peeking at my curio. Sorry about that."

"..."

"Ahem! Dr. Lin Qi is overthinking. The Xianzhou has always treated people with sincerity. Since we have become friends with the Doctor, how could we covet the Doctor's things? Fu Xuan came here just to investigate the Doctor's safety. If the Doctor doesn't believe me, you can check General of the Sky-Faring's movements later. If nothing goes wrong, she should be near the Qiongsang star sector now."

To prevent Lin Qi from attacking again, Fu Xuan hurriedly explained.

"Is that so? Then I'm relieved. Hmm? Something's wrong..."

"What's wrong?"

In an instant, Fu Xuan became nervous.

Even a little scared by Lin Qi's words.

This guy wouldn't misunderstand again, right?

But I didn't say anything wrong.

Just when Fu Xuan thought Lin Qi would drive the mecha again and slash at her fleet.

A grand, majestic, boundless fluctuation suddenly appeared.

Fu Xuan had only seen a similar fluctuation once in her life.

That was when she was granted the Dharma Eye on her forehead by the Aeon of Erudition!

So...

Is the source of this vast fluctuation an Aeon?

"Is Lin Qi being watched by the Nous?"

Fu Xuan thought so.

She didn't feel surprised; instead, she felt that Nous's gaze came a bit late.

It should have been watched earlier.

Fu Xuan felt puzzled.

But the next moment, the question that puzzled her changed.

She found that this suddenly descending fluctuation was very different from Nous.

As the fluctuation passed, the fleet's instruments began to be damaged, and even the ship's hull seemed to be disintegrating, as if it were about to be destroyed.

Fu Xuan's face changed suddenly, and she understood the reason.

"Not Nous!"

"This is..."

"Nanook the Destruction!"

At this moment.

Nanook the Destruction cast his gaze on Lin Qi.

Launching at midnight, 10,000 words will be released first, and at least 20,000 words will be updated on the day.

Seeking first subscription, thank you!

45. Watched by two Aeons at the same time? Nous appears! (Seeking first subscription)

The Xianzhou Alliance's names for Aeons are different from other factions in the universe.

They call the Aeon of Erudition "Nous."

"Nous" represents its power, while "Heavenly Lord" refers to its danger level to the Alliance, or rather, to the universe.

Also crowned with the name "Heavenly Lord" are Aeons like Aha.

Representing the friendly or neutral stance of these Aeons.

And those that are clearly beneficial to the Alliance are called "Patrons."

The Xianzhou's current greatest faith—the Hunt—is called the Divine Bow Patron.

The Aeon of Preservation is the Patching Patron.

But there are not only neutral and friendly Aeons in the universe, but also those that bring calamity.

Besides the Alliance's great enemy, the Abundance, there is also the Aeon of Destruction, Nanook, who is called the "Calamity Ancestor."

Fu Xuan didn't even have time to care about the fleet's situation; she just hurriedly ordered the fleet to retreat and then cast her attention to the direction from which the fluctuation came.

At this time.

Not only was the fleet affected, but matter slightly closer to the center of the fluctuation even began to disintegrate, including the spaceship Lin Qi was on!

Confirmed!

This is not Nous at all!

At this moment, Fu Xuan was completely stunned.

Everyone knew that Lin Qi would sooner or later be gazed upon by an Aeon, but no one said this Aeon was Nanook the Destruction!

And looking at the power level of this fluctuation, it wasn't an ordinary gaze.

Anyone who steps onto a Path can feel an Aeon's gaze, but this gaze actually doesn't even count as an Aeon's "peripheral vision."

It's more like an automatic reply, and it's also the only moment in the life of most Pathstriders that they can meet an Aeon.

Naturally, there are so many visions.

After all, in this situation, the Aeon doesn't even "glance" at them.

But the situation right now is different; to be more precise, it should be...

Staring!

"Lin Qi, you guy, aren't you going to become an Emanator of Destruction?"

Fu Xuan bit her silver teeth, her worry increasing.
