Chapter 611 - 484: The Anomaly of the Star Beast
After leaving Vermilion Bird Hall, Su Yuan returned to Zhu Yuan 777.
Upon entering, he found Luo Bingtong and Ruan Ruan sitting on the sofa watching the news.
“In the past two months, cities like Luoshui, Hengyang, and Qiu Han have experienced star beasts breaking out of dangerous zones and attacking the cities.
Although the City Guard in each city responded promptly, there were still some damages…”
“Master!”
“Su Yuan.”
Hearing the greetings, Su Yuan shifted his gaze from the TV to the two girls.
“Yeah, I’m back.”
“Master, how were the rewards?” Ruan Ruan leaned in expectantly and asked.
Luo Bingtong also looked over curiously.
Su Yuan smiled and said, “The harvest was plentiful. I obtained two secret techniques: Divine Wind and Divine Thunder.”
“Great!” Ruan Ruan excitedly pumped her fist.
After chatting for a while, Su Yuan told Luo Bingtong and Ruan Ruan about the situation in the New Dust Realm.
“With the Tiger Vein taken away by us, the rapid growth of the New Dust Realm using Blue Sea Star as a springboard has come to an end.
This time, the New Dust Realm consumed a lot of its origin and foundation. Whether it can evolve to Radiant Moon Level is uncertain, so it can be considered a major loss.
Now, the space within the New Dust Realm is increasingly unstable and is about to drift away from Blue Sea Star. Soon, all entrances to the New Dust Realm will likely close.”
Hearing this news, Ruan Ruan didn’t seem to care much. However, Luo Bingtong’s expression turned even more somber.
Given Luo Bingtong’s background, she naturally couldn’t be as free as Su Yuan.
Although she could venture into valuable places like the Secret Realm and the New Dust Realm, she had to return quickly afterward.
It was like being a well-behaved “good girl” with strict family rules.
And now that the New Dust Realm was about to close, it wouldn’t be long before her “family” learned of it…
Su Yuan asked, “Bingtong, what are you planning next?”
Luo Bingtong thought for a moment and asked, “You…?”
“Me?” Su Yuan smiled. “I’m going to look for Divine Wind.”
Hearing this, Ruan Ruan hugged Su Yuan’s arm and asked expectantly, “Master, where are we going to find Divine Wind?”
Su Yuan didn’t see any reason to hide it from Luo Bingtong and Ruan Ruan.
“To the Southern Continent!”
According to Ashley, the clues to Divine Wind were on the Southern Continent.
“Boochi boochi!” Hearing about the adventure to the mysterious Southern Continent, Ruan Ruan’s eyes sparkled with excitement.
Luo Bingtong watched Ruan Ruan, feeling waves of envy rise in her heart…
Su Yuan smiled, “But we need to make some preparations before searching for Divine Wind. First, we need to go home.”
When Luo Bingtong heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up.
“Let’s… go home now, as soon as possible.”
“Huh?” Su Yuan looked at Luo Bingtong in confusion. “Then Bingtong, you…?”
Luo Bingtong’s slightly cool hands gently grasped Su Yuan’s right hand, “To… together…”
Since holding Su Yuan’s hand once in the New Dust Realm, Luo Bingtong seemed a bit braver now.
However, Su Yuan suddenly remembered what the Vermilion Bird Throne had said earlier.
But looking at the well-behaved girl in front of him, holding his hand with anticipation in her eyes, how could he bear to refuse?
“Alright.” Su Yuan gently stroked Luo Bingtong’s head and smiled. “Then let’s go right now.”
“Yeah!”
…
On the northern outskirts of Qingye City, in the wild area between Qingye North District and the dangerous zone of Baimiao Forest.
Originally a desolate area, it was now witnessing intense battles.
A large number of City Guard warriors were resisting the impact of hundreds of star beasts, among which there were several Shining Star Level star beasts!
“Old Xu, move back a bit!…”
“Luo Yong, watch your back! Two more Yellow Lion Tigers are coming!”
“Why are there so many star beasts coming out of Baimiao Forest? It’s endless!”
“…”
These star beasts from the dangerous zone looked normal, showing no signs of “eyes glowing red” or “bodies shrouded in black aura.”
But precisely because of this, it felt even more abnormal.
After all, these star beasts from dangerous zones usually stayed in their own territory and wouldn’t easily leave. Let alone having hundreds of them trying to invade Qingye District together…
Outside the battlefield, many City Guard members in silver and bronze were holding Star Power Cannons and other tools, forming a defensive line and watching on nervously. It was difficult for them to intervene in a battlefield with Shining Star Level participants.
At the front were one of the captain-level officers of the Qingye City Guard, Qiu Boyun, and his Gold-Level deputy, Zhao Cong.
The two coordinated the remaining City Guard members and served as the last barrier to prevent any Shining Star level star beasts from breaking through into the district.
Qiu Boyun looked at the entire battlefield ahead and frowned, “Zhao Cong, when will the other teams sent by headquarters arrive?”
Despite being able to handle the current number of star beasts, it was the first time in decades that star beasts from Baimiao Forest had erupted like this. Qiu Boyun had prudently applied for reinforcements from Qingye City Guard headquarters immediately.
Zhao Cong replied, “They should be arriving soon. Captain Yao’s team and Lin’s team are already on their way. Also, headquarters contacted the nearby education bureau.”
“The education bureau…” Qiu Boyun frowned, unsure how many people the education bureau would send. It was best to rely on themselves.
Zhao Cong said, “Don’t worry, Captain Qiu. Although there are many star beasts, there’re only four or five Shining Star level beasts. Vice-captain Wang Lei and the others should handle it alone.”
