A Top Scholar in Everything
Chapter 1109 - 1095: The Silent Black Death Star
Information about the Black Death Star is classified with particularly high secrecy at the Tower of Miracles. Not even all the Attendants know; only those involved in related tasks are informed.
When Isabelle informed Baiyu of the actual situation, she did so with some hesitation.
However.
Now, the situation is urgent, and there is no time for so much consideration.
Isabelle explained everything to Qian Xin and Baiyu.
The most pressing task at hand.
Is to bring Loloya back.
"What on earth happened that even Loloya can't return from the Black Death Star?"
Baiyu frowned, worry etched deeply on his face.
Any danger that could trap Loloya must be tremendously terrifying, so even if they wanted to rescue her, they must plan carefully.
But.
All understanding of the Black Death Star remains based solely on Isabelle's narrative.
Qian Xin nodded: "Yes, if we don't fully understand the situation, going to the Black Death Star for a rescue could land us in the same predicament as Loloya, worsening the problem rather than solving it."
After a moment of contemplation, Isabelle said, "Loloya should be able to endure for about a week over there.
She has been detained by local deities on the Black Death Star.
And.
She is in a standoff situation, unable to escape.
We have three days to prepare and then spend one to two days on the Black Death Star to carry out the rescue operation directly.
This is the best solution I can think of.
If this time is exceeded.
Loloya likely will be in more danger."
Isabelle explained.
Qian Xin pondered for a while and said seriously, "I will consult the City Lord shortly to see if we can get a response.
If the City Lord can provide guidance, the matter should be resolved easily.
However.
The City Lord might not be able to respond.
In that case, I'll use the Sealing Object to save Loloya."
Isabelle concurred with Qian Xin's approach.
"By the way, you haven't told Lilia about this, have you?" Qian Xin suddenly asked.
Isabelle shook her head: "Lilia seems to be in some special place; I can't reach her. No matter the method, she should be carrying out the City Lord's task."
"It's good you didn't tell her."
Qian Xin sighed in relief, knowing that if Lilia knew about this, she'd rush back regardless of anything.
And given Lilia's temperament.
The situation would probably spiral out of control then.
...
Three days later.
Although Qian Xin contacted the City Lord daily, she received no response, much like praying to a statue and only obtaining very vague replies.
Qian Xin interpreted the City Lord's response as instructing her to handle it.
Inside the Tower of Miracles Hall.
Qian Xin wore an outfit that appeared to possess a high-tech texture, with glowing lines and strange auras flowing within.
"This is protective gear. Although those in the Eclipse Moon Realm can live in space by relying solely on Spiritual Qi, lacking the need for oxygen.
On certain planets, however, there are many toxins, radiation, and various harmful particles.
If not protected.
Even in the Eclipse Moon Realm, one might silently suffer harm or even die."
Qian Xin handed over a set of similar clothes.
Beside her, Isabelle was already dressed and was checking various weapons.
Baiyu efficiently put on the clothes as well.
After changing, the three went through the Spirit Realm tunnel beneath the Great City, quickly reaching the teleportation point of the Black Death Star.
There was a camp of the Great City here.
About five hundred people were stationed to guard it.
The teleportation point actually needs no guarding because it's extremely difficult to damage and activating the Teleportation Array requires specific opening methods and pure Energy Crystals.
These stringent conditions.
Ensure the absolute safety of the Teleportation Array.
Most people do not recognize such Arrays, making its security indisputable.
The five hundred people present were casually placed here by the City Lord, meant to make it more convenient for those from the Tower of Miracles to use the Teleportation Array.
The three reached the camp and began placing Energy Crystals on the Teleportation Array.
Soon.
The Teleportation Array, energized, emitted dazzling rays, and the three vanished amidst the light.
Soon.
A heavy pressure enveloped their bodies.
Baiyu felt his legs extremely heavy, making normal movement difficult without using Blood Qi.
An ordinary person.
Would likely drop to the ground, unable to move under such gravity.
"Be careful, the native creatures here are strong and aggressive," Isabelle cautioned.
Isabelle and Loloya had already explored numerous areas.
The three advanced along the explored path, encountering no danger, but beyond those areas lay patches of darkness.
With countless giant shadows moving within them.
They moved in the dark, but no sound came, leaving the surroundings in Silence.
Baiyu tried to speak.
But though he opened his mouth, no sound emerged.
Well.
It seemed this planet lacked an atmosphere for sound transmission.
"Can you hear?"
Suddenly, Qian Xin's voice echoed in Baiyu's mind.
Then.
Qian Xin explained: "The clothing has a communication system derived from ancient technology, allowing us to communicate. The button on your right arm is the communication switch."
Baiyu glanced at his right hand.
Indeed, there was an inconspicuous button there.
Upon pressing it, Baiyu repeatedly attempted to communicate.
No response came, though.
"You still can't hear it?" Baiyu wondered, finding it inexplicable, as Qian Xin wouldn't deceive him, so perhaps his operation was incorrect?
At that moment, Qian Xin suddenly responded: "I can hear you."
For a moment.
The atmosphere turned slightly awkward.
It didn't affect the trio's progress, though.
In the endless Silence.
Isabelle led the way, eyes focused, alert for any anomalies to act immediately if needed.
Qian Xin walked in the middle.
Alongside her protective gear, she carried a rectangular bronze box about fifty centimeters high on her back.
Baiyu followed, at the rear. ๐๐ง๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐๐ซ๐๐ธ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐.๐ฌ๐ค๐ถ
Behind Qian Xin was what seemed to be the Sealing Object, whose powerful abilities came with strong side effects, given its cautious handling.
Soon enough.
The trio reached an extremely bizarre area.
Baiyu could clearly feel the absence of Spiritual Qi, light, and any life here.
