Chapter 1356 - The Ring of Annihilation
Death is certainly terrifying, but it depends on whether it's worth it.
Sacrificing a few people to replace the "Lord of the Sky" and eliminating the huge potential trouble caused by the other side standing against Blue Star and Sky Star in advance is, in a sense, entirely worthwhile.
From the perspective of economics, which Chen Fei studied, this exchange was a worthwhile investment.
Even if one chooses to live a life of ignominy, one may be able to linger a little longer, but it doesn't mean much in the present moment.
Neither the "Lord of the Sky" who has already betrayed them nor "Sagarli" will let go of Chen Xiaoer, who has been on the front line for a long time. In the end, he will only live a little longer, which is of no use.
The forbidden fire spell "Flaming Hurricane" lasted for a full ten minutes before slowly dissipating. The violently fluctuating fire elemental energy finally calmed down. Within a radius of five kilometers, everything was burned to ashes, equivalent to burning a shocking hole inside the planet "Zeta".
"That was close, that was close, we almost couldn't hold on."
Never in his lifetime had he experienced the ordeal of enduring a forbidden spell. Herseman Brown, who was chugging down magical potions, looked on with lingering fear.
Having had hundreds of layers of "isolation" burned away by the forbidden spell containing rules, the price he paid was by no means small.
"Where is that Lin guy? Where is he? Could he have burned to ashes?"
Theodore, who had narrowly escaped death from the forbidden spell, nervously looked around. His heart had been in his throat the whole time, fearing that in the next second, the "Lord of the Sky" would break through the forbidden spell and spatial ability to rush in front of him, and with a wave of his hand, everyone's heads would fly off and they would all be finished.
“Don’t underestimate the ‘Lord of the Sky’, he’s still alive.”
Chen Fei's expression was somewhat grim; all the combat units he had deployed to the planet "Zeta" had been wiped out.
The plasma region formed by the forbidden spell completely shielded the electromagnetic signals. The various tactical units that had received the order earlier still rushed over regardless, and were all burned to ashes by the terrifying destructive power of the "Flaming Hurricane".
Artificial intelligence (AI) is not a truly intelligent species; when executing commands, the process cannot learn to change course.
Now, all that's left on the entire planet "Zeta" are the four of them.
Looking at the dog system interface again, the message "1. Slay the dragon knight Lin Mo (Mo Lin) and obtain 9999999 energy points!" is still prominently displayed in the "Task List".
There's no need to detect the "Lord of the Sky"'s location to know that the other party is still alive, and may even be unharmed.
As long as one is intelligent enough, there are various ways to obtain information, not just by actively seeking it out.
"Where is he?"
The financial fraudsters, who had just started to act up again, immediately backed down, looking around nervously, and began to feel anxious once more.
Of all the experts in the rescue team, apart from the lucky ones who were immediately sent into the "Boundary Pearl" life space by Chen Fei, the rest were utterly helpless in front of the "Lord of the Sky".
Even the barbarian leader could only withstand three hits before he was dead!
I've only been seriously practicing martial arts for a few days, and my so-called Heavenly Rank is probably only enough to kill me with one sword strike. It's no harder to kill than a chicken.
"Don't be careless!"
Dang Weijun slapped Theodore directly on the head.
This guy was so scared by the mere mention of the title "Lord of the Sky" that his legs went weak. If he couldn't calm down quickly, he probably wouldn't be able to unleash even 30% of his full fighting power. He would be lucky to even be able to hold onto his weapon.
Just then, a silver ring with a diameter of three meters appeared behind Chen Fei.
A "star gate" under the "Tree of Life" was finally connected.
Fire-based forbidden spells not only represent terrible destruction, but also a glimmer of hope.
"'Stargate'?"
The S-class space-type ability user turned around as if sensing something, and couldn't help but open his mouth wide. The appearance of the "Star Gate" ring without warning was far beyond his expectations.
While the forbidden spell was still raging, Chen Fei secretly turned on a miniature "star gate" locator.
Although the extremely high temperature caused by the fire-type forbidden spell "Blazing Hurricane" could block electromagnetic signals, it could not interfere with the instantaneous connection of the "Star Gate" locator to the predetermined coordinates. In less than a second, the "planetary-level computing node" located in the "Boundary Bead" life space obtained the positioning data, performed calculations at full capacity, and successfully analyzed Chen Fei's coordinates before the forbidden spell dissipated.
"Come on!"
Without any hesitation, Chen Fei grabbed Dang Weijun and Theodore, one in each hand, and retreated directly into the "Star Gate." Herseman Brown followed suit without the slightest hesitation.
The next second, countless fierce and sharp mental forces surged in from all directions. The "Star Gate" ring flickered and disappeared into thin air, as if it had never existed.
The forbidden spell blocked not only electromagnetic signals, but also the mental power of the "Sagali" (a group of beings associated with the Sagara). Chen Fei seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to escape.
In the vast, empty space where the high temperature had not yet dissipated, under the repeated scans of the "Sagali" with their exasperated mental energy, a figure quickly became clear from the illusory, and it was none other than the "Lord of the Sky" who had been trapped in the forbidden curse not long ago. He stared at the location where the "Star Gate" ring had disappeared, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Just as Chen Fei had guessed, this long-established legend was indeed unharmed from the forbidden spell.
The "Star Gate" stopped operating immediately after the four people passed through the fluctuating light membrane.
"Old Party member, hit me! That's how we escaped alive! Oh dear, you really hit me!"
As expected, the financial fraudster, who was asking for a beating, received a sharp rebuke from Dang Weijun.
"Thank goodness. If it weren't for that forbidden spell, we probably wouldn't have had a chance to escape."
Herseman Brown was thankful that Chen Fei was quick-witted and managed to survive the forbidden spell attack by using the "Star Gate" to create an opportunity to escape.
Even now, the "Sagara" group still doesn't know much about "Stargate" because it's the only one of its kind.
Just as the Earth civilization was helpless against the "abnormal regions" of the "Zagali" civilization, the "Zagali" civilization was equally helpless against the ubiquitous "stargates".
Maintaining a technological advantage is key!
"Don't be too happy too early!"
Chen Fei's expression was solemn, showing no joy at escaping death. He was never one to get carried away with success, and firmly believed in Murphy's Law, which states that good fortune never comes in pairs and misfortunes never come singly, and that once the situation deteriorates, it will only get worse.
Indeed, the fact that the "Lord of the Sky" has completely fallen into the hands of the "Sagarli" civilization means that the other party is not only good at using force to push things over, but also in terms of planning, it is in no way inferior to the two intelligent races of Blue Star and Sky Star, completely overturning Chen Fei's judgment of these parasitic species.
The tactic of parasitizing planetary celestial bodies alone is practically unsolvable.
Chen Fei could even imagine that the intelligent races of Cangqiong Star probably wouldn't even have a chance to run away with their buckets.
Crossing the void is a long and uncertain journey, requiring resources beyond imagination, so it's not an easy task. To rashly venture into the void is practically tantamount to suicide.
The consequences of misjudgment were severe; Chen Fei almost failed to escape, and this time his luck was only secured by the self-sacrifice of others.
What's most chilling is that the parasites' schemes don't stop at what's happening right now; there are other unforeseen deadly moves about to be unleashed.
"Could the 'Lord of the Azure Sky' possibly catch up with us?"
Theodore looked back at the "stargate" they had just passed through with unease.
The "Stargate" that created the escape opportunity at the critical moment was in a powered-off state and had no connection. Not to mention the "Lord of the Sky," even gods and spirits could not pass through the powered-off "Stargate." It wouldn't work no matter who came.
Thinking of this, the financial fraudster who had narrowly escaped death breathed a long sigh of relief.
"You...you jinx!"
Chen Fei glared at Theodore with a strange expression, then raised his head, his gaze seemingly passing through the layers of branches and leaves of the "Tree of Life" to the top of the huge canopy.
"what……"
Theodore was bewildered and at a loss.
Herseman Brown and Dang Weijun looked at each other, both of them feeling a chill run down their spines.
A colossal silver ring appeared in the sky above the "Boundary Pearl" life space, with a diameter of 20 kilometers.
The super-large digital intelligent construct "Cybertrom" on the side of the Azure Star, corresponding to the side of the Blue Star, is called the "Halo". However, this super-large "gateway" has two informal folk names. The Blue Star people like to call it the "Guardian Ring", but the Azure Star people like to call it the "World Destruction Ring".
Upon seeing the "halo" floating high in the "Boundary Pearl" life space, Chen Fei suddenly realized that, if he were to trace the origins carefully, the "Star Gate" technology was not his exclusive property.
Actually, even earlier...
