Mochizuki shifted her body slightly, invisible blades of spatial energy swirling around her fingertips, as if dreams were flowing within them.

For instance, the sinking demons on the blood-soaked wasteland, aside from their innate dark attribute talents, often had leaders and elites who easily gained elemental enhancements such as fire or speed. Meanwhile, the massive beasts inside the sinister caves commonly saw elites and leaders strengthened in power and constitution.

It seemed that in a while, a trip back to the Guiding Village was in order—to check on Erlang and her old acquaintances.

While Wu Yi and Song Ziyi were chatting, a wild laughter suddenly echoed, instantly capturing their attention. The two exchanged a glance and headed straight toward where Lin Yue was.

Of course, no matter their expressions or feelings, the fact that Zhang Xingxing had become the Star Lord of Hal Star Planet was immutable.

Behind this glamorous city, many people struggled desperately just to survive, with no safety net and unable to withstand any hardships. Such an accident could easily shatter a family.

A crisp slap resounded on Wu Jialuo’s face. Wu Tai struck with great force, as if venting all his strength. After the slap, Wu Jialuo collapsed to the ground, a blood-red handprint marking his face.

“Follow me.” After receiving the spirit jade, the man smiled with satisfaction, suddenly turning a corner and entering a pitch-black alleyway. The outside sounds quickly faded.

Once a dozen initial bases fully condensed, they floated in the air, emitting unique energy waves before finally settling into exquisite, special works of art.

The storm raged fiercer and fiercer, like a towering demon about to descend, its terrifying might striking awe and fear.

The earthen wall and bone spear shattered simultaneously. Chen Ji frowned. The voices Elbi had heard from the crystal in the tomb passage were completely different from the necromancer before him; the latter spoke clearly and decisively, while Elbi’s crystal recordings were rambling and incessant.

“Our security here also needs to be strengthened,” Wu Peifu said after looking around. “I have a feeling this incident involves more than just the Red Russians... and possibly...” He glanced at the assembled military and political officials inside the room, then withheld the rest.

“Player Gu Tie, do you need me to explain the function of the ‘Lock-On Warning’?” Terra asked with a smile.

This was the entirety of Liu Yihua’s interruption and plan. Liu Yihua intended for the rifle squad to expand to several thousand members, with Zhou Xiuying as captain and Liu Wufeng as vice-captain. He’d provide them with fishing boats, ensuring Zhou Xiuying and Liu Wufeng could guarantee safety.

The first time Zhao Xuan asked if she wanted to report back to her family, she said it wasn’t urgent. Eventually, she only made a phone call to a certain classmate, later learning that classmate had already paid a ransom. They returned safely from the pirates’ hands, and that was where it ended.

Liu Yihua selected ten boys from this group as artillery support personnel, requiring Gao Yuying and others to teach them how to operate the cannons. He was treating these youths as reserves for the artillery squad.

Zheng Qi held a pale blue, crystalline, rhomboid object in his hand. According to Xiang Yian Di on the 15th floor, this was the “Zero Material” she needed—a super energy source unknown to humanity. Its energy release upon reaction was over a thousand times that of an equal mass of ordinary matter.

Lü Bu believed that defeating Guan Yu with the Overlord Lance technique of the Western Chu Overlord did not truly showcase his skill. Thus, employing the crescent blade of the Fangtian Halberd as a sword, he executed Hua Xiong’s self-created blazing sun sword technique to contest Guan Yu, wanting to confirm that there was no failed battle tactic, only failed warriors.

Listening to the teacher’s lecture, the students nodded earnestly. Perhaps, for them, they would never have the chance to visit France, but at least the education before them could impart simple, fundamental scientific knowledge. Gazing at the eager faces, Jiang Qian turned to ask Mike.

Although the Supreme God Cult never pursued the private lives of clerics before their ordination, the once hopeful Ulysses still felt himself continually falling into depravity.

“What’s wrong? Did you encounter ghosts in the mountains?” He spat tobacco and shifted his weight from one leg to the other.

The mad old woman, upon hearing this, shook her snowy white hair vigorously, merely chuckling foolishly.

Chinai was just thinking that Tezuka Kunimitsu could escort her back; Fuji Shusuke and Echizen Ryoma would return first.

A few days ago, Shen Yuzhu learned that Sheng Jingting had a heart condition. She wanted to clarify with Jiang Youxia but then found out that Sheng Guo, that girl, had died—burned to death.

“If only you had been here from the start,” He Wei thought of the six fallen brothers, a heavy guilt weighing on his heart.

Zhou Yang nonchalantly found a bench to sit on. Thanks to the Hunter System’s enhancement, his eyesight was excellent, clearly observing every move Li Zheyu made on the court from afar.

The ministers disembarked early and tidied their disguises at the ceremonial gate, then entered in orderly succession holding their bamboo tablets.

“Senior Brother, Junior Brother has summoned you to meet about an urgent matter!” Xiang Xiang said coldly.

This was a fair price. Although the Everlasting Willow could protect health, it ultimately had no martial benefit, so no one would set an exorbitant price.

Dong Ling suddenly grew anxious: “Impossible! Where else could they go? If Old Master Bai and the Du family disappeared, I truly couldn’t bear the responsibility, after all, they had gone to town to celebrate her pharmacy’s opening.”
