Star Odyssey - Chapter27

Who was that?

Jeraldine looked at the silver-haired man, but she had no recollection of him.

Butterfly knives and silver hair were rare features, but she had no recollection of him at all. Could he be a native?

"Sigh, the blade's blunted, and I didn't have time to polish it. I can barely use 50% of my power," the silver-haired man pretended to be regretful as he glanced at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin's eyes flashed and he looked at his palm, "My hands are dirty, so I can only use 40% of my power."

The silver-haired man was speechless, was that even a reason?

"Student, this is the second time we've met. Introduce yourself, I'm Silver," the silver-haired man smiled like a fox.

Lu Yin smiled back, "I'm Yata, from Pagoda Planet. My grandfather is the headmaster."

Silver exclaimed, "You're a second-generation student, no, a third-generation student. Congratulations."

Lu Yin smiled, "You're welcome, I like your silver hair."

"Hahaha, I like it too. Right, I have something to do, so I'll be leaving first. See you again, Yata."

Lu Yin smiled, "See you again, Silver."

Silver quickly disappeared over the horizon.

Jeraldine flew over and asked curiously, "Which school is he from?"

Lu Yin shook his head, "I don't know, let's go."

"Wait, you don't want the energy crystal?"

Jeraldine stretched out her hand, revealing a white crystal the size of a finger that reflected the sunlight, "It's not suitable for absorption, but it can be used as a source of energy for weapons. It's not bad, after all, it's a Melder."

Lu Yin took it without hesitation, "Let's go, let's continue on our way." He then flew north with Jeraldine.

The energy crystals of Earth's evolved lifeforms were considered inferior in the universe, and even the wandering soldiers who directly absorbed them wouldn't use them. There were too many impurities that would affect their cultivation, and they weren't of much use to Lu Yin himself.

Die was also very picky about its food and wouldn't absorb inferior energy crystals. Lu Yin planned to accumulate more and sell them for star crystals later.

Silver flew towards the east and stopped after a certain distance, looking back with a puzzled expression, "What battle technique is this?

You've only just broken through to the Sentinel realm, and yet you're able to block me. It's an unfamiliar battle technique, but it's strong. I'll have to check it out when I get back. "

Doomsday had arrived, and countless ordinary people in Beijing had turned into zombies. The country's top management had all died in a huge explosion, leaving Beijing without a leader. Fortunately, the head of the Seven Saints, Zhang Dingtian, had appeared to suppress the chaos and disperse the zombies, thus saving Beijing. Even so, Beijing was only left with less than a third of its original area, and the surrounding area had fallen into the endless tide of zombies.

There were too many people in Beijing, and the number of zombies was close to ten million, far more than Jinling. Even after half a year, Zhang Dingtian still couldn't eliminate the zombies with the combined strength of more than a hundred thousand evolvers.

The capital was like a giant beast surrounded by countless ants. It clearly had the strength to crush the ants, but it was trapped and unable to move.

Capital City was fortified with ten-meter-tall steel walls. Many evolvers stood on top of the steel walls, looking at the zombies in the distance calmly.

The city gates opened from time to time, and the evolvers rushed out in the armored vehicles rented by the army, wanting to collect useful materials outside the city.

Not long after, the city gates opened again, and an armored vehicle rushed into the city.

"Didn't that vehicle just leave?" a centurion on top of the steel wall asked curiously.

Another centurion beside him replied, "It's normal, they encountered a powerful mutant beast and lost a few people. The rest came back to regroup."

Many survivors had gathered near the steel walls, their clothes tattered and ragged. Most of them were skin and bones from starvation, but the vehicle didn't stop at all and almost hit someone.

Inside the vehicle, Paris's eyes lit up, "I've only seen such primitive firearms in textbooks, I never thought I'd be able to use one. Interesting."

Veron smiled, "Bring one back if you like."

Behind them, Parlie's expression was solemn as he looked into the capital. There was a cold energy emanating from there that made even his heart palpitate.

"Veron, who's the strongest in the capital?" Parlie asked. He hadn't cared at first, but now he felt different.

"Someone called Zhang Dingtian, known as the Frenzied Blade Sage. He's the head of the Seven Saints."

Parlie's gaze turned solemn.

Veron glanced at Parlie, "Ignore him, the strongest on this planet are only Sentinels, barely stronger than some elite students. They're still a far cry from you and me."

Parlie ignored Veron; he was the only one of the three who could feel that cold energy. It was vague, but it was clearly far away, yet close at the same time.

The armored vehicle continued its rampage, ignoring the soldiers' warnings as it rushed towards the south of the city where the explosion had occurred.

The area had long since been sealed off, and there was even a captain guarding it.

When the vehicle appeared, it was immediately blocked, and Paris excitedly drove her car into it.

"How dare you!" an Earth-level captain shouted, leaping high into the air to attack the vehicle.

Veron looked up and casually flicked his finger, sending a gust of wind that tore through the captain and sent him crashing to the ground, heavily injured. The surrounding soldiers were shocked.

The armored vehicle stopped, and Parlie and the other two walked out, looking at the crater filled with red lava that distorted the air above.

"This is the place. The explosion caused the planet to evolve, but the corpse is gone," Veron said in a low voice.

Parlie fell into deep thought; the crater was filled with lava, and even if there were any clues, they would be incinerated. There was no way they could get any information from here, "Looks like we can only find the person in charge of the capital, the first of the Seven Saints."

Veron smiled faintly, "I'll go get him."

Just as Parlie was about to speak, his eyes narrowed and he looked up. At the same time, Veron and Paris also looked up to see a man standing silently in the sky, staring at them coldly.

Parlie's eyes narrowed at the sight, his expression turning solemn.

"When did this person appear?" Paris was shocked.

The man slowly descended from the sky with a sword in his right hand.

The surrounding soldiers saluted in unison, "Greetings, Sage Hua."

Parlie and the other two were shocked; this was Zhang Dingtian?

"Stand down, all of you," Zhang Dingtian ordered, and the soldiers immediately retreated in an orderly fashion.

Parlie and the other two carefully sized up Zhang Dingtian. His appearance was ordinary, not too strong, and there were no obvious wounds on his body. But there was one thing about him, he gave off a very domineering aura. They didn't know why, but the three of them felt that this person was overbearing, perhaps it was because of the blade.

"You're from outer space?" Zhang Dingtian asked calmly.

Veron stepped forward, "That's right, we're from outer space. We have something to ask you."

Zhang Dingtian looked past Veron to Parlie, "Leave the capital, and you're not allowed to enter."

Parlie narrowed his eyes.

Veron was furious that Zhang Dingtian was ignoring him, "I have something to ask you, did you not hear me?"

Zhang Dingtian glanced at Veron, "Before you leave, as punishment for disrupting the capital, each of you will receive one strike from my sword." He didn't wait for the three to reply before slashing at Veron.

Beep beep beep beep!

Borise's gadget buzzed, and her expression changed, "Be careful, Veron! He's a realmbreaker!"

Veron's expression changed. What seemed like an ordinary blade had suddenly turned into something terrifying. Everything in the world seemed to have disappeared, leaving only the blade in his eyes. Veron's pupils shrank as he raised his hand, "Spacerender Palm!" He roared, causing the air to ripple as a shockwave blasted forward.

Zhang Dingtian's attack was blocked by the Spacerender Palm, and a powerful burst of pressure spread out in all directions, shattering the earth. Borise's breath caught, and she hurriedly retreated. The pressure swept up into the sky, dispersing the clouds and causing the lava in the nearby crater to rise.

In the distance, countless soldiers watched in shock. Every time Hua Sheng made a move, it was always so shocking.

Veron clenched his teeth, staring at Zhang Dingtian who was only a few meters away. How could a mere native be so strong?

A realmbreaker! How could there be such a monster among the natives?

Behind him, Parlie threw a punch at Zhang Dingtian.

Zhang Dingtian's eyes narrowed, and the back of his blade slashed at Parlie's fist. An arc of energy blasted out, destroying the ruins in the distance and tearing the earth apart. Veron was the first to be pushed back, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Zhang Dingtian didn't move from his original position, still in the same posture as before. He looked at Borise and slashed again.
