Chapter 110: Help Me Get Another Thing

~7 min read 1,242 words

Fierce firepower continuously spans the void.

Scalding cannonballs pierce the corpse ocean, stirring up swirls of blood mist.

Then they slam into the strike cruiser, breaching the Void Shield that can no longer hold, and fling massive debris across the hull.

Then a gaping gust erupts, hurling countless bodies and debris into space.

Even with Hundredfold Amplification, after enduring the combined barrage of the three sides for so long, the strike cruiser keeps emitting a mournful wail of imminent disintegration.

On the Bridge.

The massive tremor throws everyone eastward and westward; Xisi's Red Sword is planted on the deck, his hands gripping the hilt, as he looks toward Bai'er, whose face is growing increasingly frantic.

Bai'er watches Xisi, who uttered those words, his gaze constantly sweeping over Xisi.

His eyes suddenly flash, unexpectedly shedding a bright sheen from the dark corner.

Like a hungry wolf in the darkness, Bai'er steps slightly out of the shadows, extends his crimson tongue again, licking his lips while appraising this specimen that could be called the most perfect in the entire galaxy.

Then the warship trembles again, and the crew at the forward console suddenly topple eastward and westward.

Bai'er stands steady in place, his mouth slowly cracking open:

"Of course~, my lord."

"You can certainly awaken spiritual energy!"

"But before that, you still need to help me with..."

Before he could finish speaking, the madness and fascination on Bai'er's face froze instantly, and then, without a second thought, he rolled to the side.

Then the explosive that should have struck him at his original spot suddenly teleported again, still sweeping past his ear.

Feeling the scorching airflow of the explosive singe his white long hair, Bai'er's face, which bore a hint of the Color Devil pathology that Imperial Princes have, instantly returned to normal.

At the same time, with a stern face, he mutters angrily in his heart, "Washituoer"!

"You know."

"I will kill you; I only need to pull the trigger."

Xisi stands in place, looking at the habitually scheming Bai'er, his face bearing unmasked murderous intent.

Seeing Xisi truly willing to die rather than awaken spiritual energy, Bai'er finally composes himself and quickly says:

"I really still need one last thing; otherwise I would have already awakened spiritual energy for myself."

Bai'er chooses to explain first, while Xisi watches another escort ship being shattered by cannon fire from all directions, its crew and soldiers spewing into space, and Xisi raises his hand to launch another explosive.

Bai'er resigns himself, closes his eyes, feeling the explosive this time sweep past the other side of his head; he does not open his eyes, nor dare to delay further, and this time chooses to say it in one breath:

"I will send the Coordinates to the Bridge; Lord Sisi only needs to jump here; the thing I need is at the coordinate point."

After speaking, Bai'er opens his eyes, stepping a full step toward Xisi:

"Lord Sisi, rest assured; once I obtain that thing, I can immediately awaken spiritual energy for you!"

After Bai'er finishes speaking, the warship trembles again; Xisi looks intently at Bai'er, then gazes out the Bridge window at the three sides racing to kill him, pauses for a long moment, grits his teeth, and looks at Fanluosi, who has been waiting for a long time.

"Anyway, we have to run."

"Just head for Bai'er's Coordinates."

After speaking, seeing Fanluosi and the core team with faces of helplessness and resistance, Xisi can only raise his hand and point to the Bridge window as a reminder:

"First, we have no choice!"

"Second..."

"I don't believe the situation could get any worse!"

Xisi finishes speaking, knowing that staying here means death for Fanluosi and the others, finally grits his teeth to accept the order, then suddenly swings his fist down, slamming it onto the Bridge's Leap activation button.

A powerful A-space Fluctuation arises, and then the strike cruiser, relying on a Hundredfold Subspace engine with efficiency even surpassing that of Dead Spirits' network transmission, disappears again before the three sides.

Then the three sides, as if already accustomed, almost leave small fleets to continue fighting each other, then together activate their engines and pursue again.

Only three small fleets remain, continuing an endless battle in a void ocean of ships and corpses.

On the other side, when Xisi's last few vessels burst out of Subspace, the crew on the warship barely have time to rejoice; then all eyes follow Xisi, looking toward the dark void outside the Bridge window.

At the same time, Bai'er resigns himself, closes his eyes, stands still, waiting for Xisi to raise his hand and fire another explosive.

This time, the explosive not only grazes as a warning but actually blasts off one of Bai'er's ears.

Even though blood streams from his ear, Bai'er, accustomed to being hunted by enemies across the galaxy, remains silent and stays where he is.

He even sighs in relief because Xisi only blew off one ear.

Because now the entire Bridge is dead silent, everyone, like Xisi, can only wear a dead, composed face, directing their gaze into the distance.

At the far end of everyone's sight is a massive Empire fleet of over a thousand ships, surging forward with great momentum.

At the same time they notice Xisi's small fleet suddenly appearing on their path; after a brief stunned surprise, they now dispatch strike units, turning to approach.

With no communication or exchange, watching these fleets open their Macro Cannon muzzles directly, Xisi knows that these strange Empire fleets have no intention of communicating with him.

Moreover, the opposing fleets would open fire indiscriminately at the mere sight of him.

Everyone's attention, however, is more focused on the densely packed Empire warships in the middle, that area directly...

Floating giant island!

Adjusting his throat, Fanluosi does not look at Xisi, but seriously turns back to face Bai'er, his gaze both puzzled and full of admiration:

"The Dark Angel's 'Giant Stone Monastery'; even the Judgment Court doesn't know their Coordinates, how did you find them?"

Fanluosi is even sincerely inquiring, after all, as an early Empire legion, the Dark Angels are not only powerful in combat but also excel at guerrilla tactics and secret movements.

The 'Giant Stone Monastery' before us, with a volume comparable to a massive meteorite, serves as the Dark Angels' 'homeworld' roaming the galaxy.

And now, Xisi, based on Bai'er's Coordinates, actually jumps directly onto the faces of these Dark Angels.

At the same time, at a distance absolutely unacceptable to the Dark Angels, he approaches their secret-laden legion homeworld!

As the galaxy's largest 'secret faction', the Dark Angels are capable of killing even their own allies to protect their secrets.

Not to mention that at this moment, being directly hit by Xisi, the Dark Angels actually...

Just these two points, the dark angel will not let Xisi live.

The crew members were still bewildered, merely shocked that besides the Mountain Formation, humans actually have such a huge warship.

Fanluosi, however, understood the meaning of this scene, and the whole person fell into utter despair's dead silence.

But the more despair-inducing thing, however, came from Xisi's words after he took a deep breath.

Taking a breath, Xisi turned to look at Bai'er behind him, his eyes likewise showing doubt; then, while pointing at the Giant Stone Monastery, he said seriously:

You won't tell me.

What we're looking for......

Inside that stone?
