Chapter 1768 Throbbing
On the fifth day after everyone explored Baozhi Star, Feng Wangyi gave the onlookers the answer: it would take another seven or eight days.
Ten days or so would not be enough for it to digest the food, but it could cut the shells into small pieces and stuff them into the tree holes in its body.
There is no doubt that considerable energy will be lost during the cutting process.
Feng Wangli felt very distressed, but everyone was watching him eagerly, and he couldn't just think about his own interests.
"Eating a meal is like this... Oh, never mind, let's just treat it as a battle meal. It was obtained by my teammates after all."
Five days later, Qu Jianlei showed up again. During the time he disappeared, he set up another teleportation array near Baozhi Star.
Now setting up the teleportation array is not just Xizhao’s job. In areas where aliens are rampant, his stealth ability is also very important.
In particular, he can provide a massive amount of spiritual energy support for Sunset's rapid movement.
Jing Yuexin did have an invisibility cloak, but she could not draw spiritual energy from the cave without hindrance, and was unable to do anything on behalf of the boss.
Three days later, Feng Wangxi finally stuffed the fragments into the tree hole of his body.
Of course, it selects the most active part, and the unimportant parts are discarded, which is about half.
For the first time, Shu Jian's tone revealed regret, "When I was a kid, these would have been enough to make me risk my life many times... Alas!"
"Constrain your aura," a human face popped up and said expressionlessly, "You've absorbed too much from your own kind, your aura is not right!"
This statement is easy to understand, but it must be admitted that among so many masters in the cave, it was the only one that noticed it!
The arrogance of the spirit of the weapon is not just blind arrogance. Here, it is roughly equivalent to the will of the world.
It took Feng Wangxi another five days before he was able to gather his breath.
Moreover, this cannot be sensed by those below the Nascent Soul stage. As for the outer body...it may not be guaranteed.
But Shu Jian said frankly, I have tried my best. If I continue to eliminate it, it will not be calculated in days.
No one wanted to wait any longer, and before they knew it, they had been at Baozhi Star for nearly twenty days.
Although it seems that Baozhixing's situation will not change much in the short term, there will always be more trouble.
If news of the destruction of the Sihe mother tree came, it would be hard to imagine what changes would happen here.
Anyway, Qu Jianlei insisted on operating as quickly as possible, "…while the order here is still relatively chaotic."
As for why there is chaos, everyone can guess it - after all, there is human history to learn from.
If the new mother tree wants to compete with the old mother tree, it must recruit a large number of troops.
But how can a new generation of strong people break the old order and compete with the old strong people in attractiveness?
Not to mention high positions, generous salaries, resources, territories and the like, at least we should not emphasize discipline too much - subordinates must live happily!
This is indeed the case. Qu Jianlei hid himself in the body of a tree monster and easily traveled around the entire planet in just five days.
It takes a long time, but isn’t this... worrying about arousing the suspicion and concern of the mother tree?
Feng Wangxi plays a member of the tree tribe who does nothing and wanders around, but the key is that it is powerful enough.
So whenever it passed by any place slowly, no tree tribe would come forward to express any objection.
Shu Jian was a little emotional. "No powerful tree tribe has recruited me. It seems that... the stronger one is, the more cautious one is in front of the mother tree."
However, this is also thanks to the fact that it did not dare to get close to the mother tree, otherwise the mother tree's direct subordinates might not be easy to deal with.
To be honest, during these five days, it had brief exchanges with other tree tribes.
Those tree tribes all said that the Sihe mother tree bullied the trees too much, and their own adults could not bear the oppression, so they rose up in resistance.
But you can just listen to this and there is no need to take it seriously. To Feng Wangyi, these causes and effects do not have much meaning.
The boss has already said that history is a little girl who can be dressed up by anyone, let alone reality?
Five days later, Shujian returned to the desert at night and disappeared.
Five minutes later, a faint white light flashed in the stone chamber under the sand.
About an hour later, more than 200,000 kilometers above Baozhi Star, the space began to distort.
Soon after, a large number of alien tribes from the forest appeared in the distorted space.
Groups of aliens quickly left the place where they appeared, and new groups of aliens emerged.
The mother tree on Baozhi Star shook its branches, making a deafening rustling sound, expressing its happiness and joy.
After attracting more reinforcements, you can integrate your subordinates and start the road to dominance.
However, at this moment, five white rays appeared on Baozhi Star, followed by a violent firestorm.
These five firestorm points are distributed relatively evenly, with similar distances between them.
"This is..." A trace of doubt flashed through the heart of the new generation of strong mother tree, and it felt an indescribable and huge threat.
It is a powerful being who has already advanced to the level of a great master, but at this moment, it actually felt a strong sense of powerlessness and deep despair.
"It was that bastard Sihexing who harmed me..." This was the last thought that came to its mind.
At this moment, Qu Jianlei and his team had arrived at the newly built teleportation array, which was a small gaseous nebula.
Deep inside the nebula, there is a liquid with a higher temperature, surrounding a solid core with an even higher temperature.
The teleportation array is built on liquid matter, and the outer shell is a large cargo container that is resistant to high temperature and corrosion.
When they were transported over, the temperature inside the cargo compartment reached three hundred degrees.
However, the materials of the teleportation array are also resistant to high temperatures, so as long as the teleporter can withstand it, it will be fine.
All in all, the environment here is not very good, but it is extremely hidden.
Qu Jianlei rushed out of the nebula with the cave, and then a division-level ship rushed out of the cave.
The destruction of Baozhi Star was a foregone conclusion. Originally, three Xingzai could almost solve the problem, but Qu Jianlei specially placed two more.
However, the Boundary Shuttle has not yet completed its charging. To be on the safe side, everyone agreed that it would be okay to wait a little longer.
So where should we go next? Qu Jianlei thought it would be better to return to Baozhi Star to see the ending.
What about "real heroes never look back", that's pure nonsense, just for showing off.
If conditions permit, all thieves are willing to go back to the crime scene to take a look to satisfy their vanity.
It is like not returning home when you are rich or traveling at night when you are clothed in fine clothes.
The key point is that Qu Jianlei also wants to know how the new mother tree grows, and whether there will be another out-of-body mother tree born?
It would be more appropriate to investigate this issue while the mother tree is still alive, but wouldn't it be courting death to do so?
Feng Wangxi highly supported his suggestion, and Shu Jian said that he could interrogate a few more members of the same tribe.
The other members also agreed with the boss's idea - there was no other way, the aliens were leaving their bodies one after another, and everyone was a little stressed.
Not long after the division-level ship sailed out, Flower Scorpion, who was observing the teleportation array, spoke up, "Boss, Baozhi's teleportation array has disappeared."
The next moment, Qu Jianlei frowned, and vaguely, he felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart.
Then he turned his head to look at Jing Yuexin, with a hint of thought in his eyes.
Jing Yuexin looked back at him in surprise, and then sent out her spiritual consciousness, "What's the matter?"
"It's okay," Qu Jianlei shook his head and retracted his gaze, but he was muttering in his heart: What happened?
He is now increasingly aware that when one has reached the Nascent Soul stage, almost all of his impulses are no longer accidental.
Especially this time, the feeling that something was wrong was quite strong.
However, Jing Yuexin, who had a strong sense of perception, was not moved at all this time, which made him quite confused.
Of course, the last time Jing Yuexin warned him, it was because she cared too much about him that she discovered the warning signs.
But at that time, he was unaware of it because he was involved in the cause and effect of the Great Master of Out-of-Body State.
So, is the problem this time because Jing Yuexin... or someone in the team is about to get into trouble?
His mind was working secretly, but he would not speak rashly until he had sorted out his thoughts.
The teammates have been fighting against alien races all day long, their nerves are already tense and they are under a lot of psychological pressure.
Even though the team has won one victory after another, it is often the boss who takes the most actions.
But everyone—everyone!—is always ready for any unexpected event.
Some A-rank members, such as Tianyin, Claire, and the Koros siblings, will not participate in most combat missions.
Does that mean they are safe? No, it's just that the risk of them going into battle is too great. The slightest accident could mean death.
For these people, they are facing a battlefield that does not belong to them.
Of course, if one has never experienced life and death, he is not a true warrior, and Qu Jianlei also agrees with this point.
His ideas may be controversial, but the question now is, will the psychological pressure be less if there are fewer people participating in the war?
Qu Jianlei believes that as the boss, he has to consider the emotional tolerance of the entire team when releasing certain news.
After the division-level ship had traveled for five days, it encountered a sweeping energy turbulence.
The range of this spatial fluctuation is incomparable to any previous one.
Qu Jianlei was even a little confused. There were still a few days left in the journey, so how could it affect here? Was there something wrong with the star map?
He didn't know that after the team left, the five defective lines not only caused a firestorm, but also interrupted a large-scale transmission.
Anyway, the current situation was a bit confusing for him. He asked Xiaohu, but Xiaohu couldn't explain it either.
Because the energy was too violent, it was inconvenient for the division-level ships to go deeper, so they could only circle around the edge of the wave zone.
After this turn, more than ten days passed, and there was no sign of energy fluctuation... Well, it was still weakening, but the decay rate was very slow.
According to Xiaohu's estimation, it will take about twenty days for the temperature to drop to a relatively safe level.
However, it also has another set of algorithms: the decay rate of energy fluctuations, which may be from strong to weak from the inside to the outside.
In other words, if you want to improve your protection now, you can try to go a little deeper.
"Then let's try to get in first," Qu Jianlei said straightforwardly, "Although we're not in a hurry, there's no need to wait."
What he was really worried about was the inexplicable throbbing he had felt not long ago.
