Chapter 738: Cricket Fighting!
Is the heavenly disaster causing a haunting?
Zhang Jie stared at the warning just sent from the Star Sea Hall, his head full of question marks.
No, what does it mean?
"Get lost, all of you!!!"
The font was bright red; from the exclamation marks behind it, one could tell the speaker was impatient.
Yuan stood beside him, brows furrowed.
"What the hell is this?"
"It came from the hall over there, saying that the heavenly disaster invaded their quantum communication channel and sent this line of text."
"Can the heavenly disaster speak?"
"As of now, it seems to be the case."
Yuan stared at that line of text for a while, lost in thought.
The heavenly disaster has no language; this is a recognized fact of the Star Sea civilization.
The Insect Disaster only eats, the Blood Disaster only assimilates, the Beast Disaster only kills.
They do not communicate with civilization, nor do they use civilization's tools.
Except for the Intelligent Machine Empress's heavenly disaster sovereign, all other heavenly disasters are basically machines.
You say whether this matter is good or bad? It's both good and bad.
The reason the heavenly disaster is a heavenly disaster is fundamentally because they cannot communicate!
Their every move is controlled by the heavenly disaster's will, just like a human-machine with system settings; thus attacking the heavenly disaster is essentially like playing a PVE game controlled by someone.
Just like the Intelligent Machine Empress in that simulation, as long as the other party can communicate, all conflicts and outbreaks can be resolved through negotiation.
But the problem lies here; if the other party turns out to be a lunatic like that Chen, then we're really screwed.
"It's kind of interesting...."
Zhang Jie turned off the light screen.
"Looks like I have to go see for myself."
"You really want to go???"
"Hmm."
"What if something happens……"
"Nothing will happen; mainly I want to fight crickets."
Yuan:????
Cricket fighting?
"Right, where's Blue Sapphire?"
"She's gnawing on a table over in the warehouse."
"Call her over."
Zhang Jie grinned; Yuan, seeing his smile, suddenly understood something.
"Alright, alright, I'm going, I'm going."
Alliance warship.
Blue Sapphire was currently crouching on the top of the warship's cabin, her tail swaying, looking cute and leisurely, but in reality no one dared to touch her.
With Blue Sapphire's appearance, she's famous throughout the Alliance.
After all, Zhang Jie raised her free-range; normally, Blue Sapphire would wander around the Alliance everywhere, looking for food, or just laze about basking in the sun.
However, the one suffering the most is the restaurant owner, after all, everyone knows Blue Sapphire's appetite.
Fortunately, Blue Sapphire pays for her meals, so the owner doesn't lose money; mainly it's just tiring, and she Blue Sapphire is just trying something fresh.
"Knight Sir, where are we going to eat this time?"
"I'll take you to a good place."
Zhang Jie smiled, raising a finger.
"There seems to be a big guy there, very strong; want to give it a try?"
"Good!"
Blue Sapphire's eyes lit up instantly.
"Then I'll go now!"
"Don't rush."
Zhang Jie pressed down on her head.
"First probe a bit, don't go straight into battle."
"Got it!"
Blue Sapphire nodded, turned, and jumped into the sealed cabin.
At this moment, the Alliance warship had arrived at the problematic spot of the pollution tide; to facilitate launching Blue Sapphire, Zhang Jie specially made a launch device.
It comes with a warp engine, comes with precision strike capability, and is of the disposable type.
The moment the hatch closed, the warship's launch system activated, firing the sealed cabin like a shell toward the pollution center.
Edge of the pollution tide.
Qi Yu lay sprawled on a broken meteorite, her belly round and full, still feeling like she wanted to die.
She looked at the remaining pollution and sighed.
She had finally eaten about a small half; although ships from this universe had been coming to harass her during this period, after she warned them last time, they had learned their lesson and stopped bothering her.
However, judging by Qi Yu's experience, this is probably them holding back something big.
The pollution surge kept exuding fear; driven by survival instinct, it kept retreating, trying to escape Qi Yu.
Unfortunately, Qi Yu wouldn't give them a chance to flee.
"Continue!"
Qi Yu had just propped herself up with her insect limbs when the distant space suddenly twisted.
A sealed cabin crossed space to arrive; in Qi Yu's puzzled gaze, the hatch opened and a small figure jumped out.
Though Lanbaoshi was tiny—still not even as big as one of Qi Yu's fingernails—Qi Yu still felt a considerable threat from her.
"What... is this?"
"Meow? It's you, isn't it, meow!"
Lanbaoshi let out a strange laugh, then took a deep breath; the black liquid on her body began to churn wildly.
Her form began to twist, swell, and elongate; countless indescribable tentacles probed out of the void, having no fixed shape, like a mass of living darkness slowly unfurling toward Qi Yu.
That was something older and more terrifying than the pollution.
Qi Yu's pupils contracted slightly.
"Entropy disaster???"
Qi Yu's head was full of question marks—what on earth happened in this universe? These civilizations are playing way too big!
Using entropy disaster as a weapon—what are you playing at?
As a traveler who shuttles through multiple universes, Qi Yu naturally knows what entropy disaster means.
That mass of darkness before her had no fixed shape, no clear boundary—like a self-aware abyss slowly writhing in the starry sky.
The worst part was that the center of that darkness seemed linked to something even vaster, older, and indescribable.
Just a glance made Qi Yu feel her will being tugged.
"Tsk."
She withdrew her gaze, no longer looking at the heart of that darkness.
Lanbaoshi's main body let out a low, deep roar; countless tentacles surged from all directions, each tip splitting open into a mouth bristling with countless sharp teeth.
Nobody could imagine that just seconds ago this thing had been an adorable little catgirl.
Qi Yu didn't retreat; a slight flick of her insect wings made her vanish instantly from the spot.
The next second, she appeared above Lanbaoshi's main body, and her massive insectoid shell slammed down like a meteor.
After the shell flew off, Qi Yu's true body was revealed.
She had the appearance of a girl, with four pairs of insect wings sprouting from her back.
"Whatever you are!"
"All of you, get lost to the edge of the universe!!!"
"Roar...."
Lanbaoshi let out a threatening low growl, then its entire indescribable body began to swell at breakneck speed once again.
A fierce battle was about to begin!
