Chapter 319: Chapter 70: Celestial God Civilization’s Display! Athena Descends! Mongolian Drummer Han Ling? (2)

And him?

Han Ling, descendant of the Divine Bloodline, was just an afterthought along the way.

Time passed, slow and steady.

Mongolian Drummer Han Ling was still fantasizing about rising to a higher dimension, arms around beauties, dominating the Star River.

Boom—

Rumble—!

Suddenly.

The central fortress he occupied shook violently.

"Hm?"

Han Ling’s expression changed ever so slightly in that moment.

His fortress was not like the others in the Star System Wasteland!

This is...

A High Dimension Fortress!

This is...

A greeting gift dropped into place from the Nash Clan, direct from the High Dimension!

Of course.

As strong as the Nash Clan was, they couldn’t drop too many such fortresses compatible with the server’s rules for long periods, so the central fortress was unique—only the one Han Ling was in.

And this fortress.

Theoretically, it had already hit the Star System Wasteland’s rule limit; no Energy Level from the Star System Server could threaten it.

But now?

The fortress was shaking hard, as if it might break apart at any moment!

"So this is the power of the High Dimension?"

"Interesting..."

Han Ling shook his head, slowly rising from his throne.

With the help of a young maid, he draped himself in a splendid robe.

Vmm—

Han Ling stepped forward, spatial ripples spreading.

His figure appeared outside the medium-sized fortress, in the endless starry sky.

At this moment.

The starry sky was nearly packed with uncountable fortress battleships from the Celestial God Civilization.

"This is the empire I have built, all these years!"

Han Ling looked at the spectacle, pride welling up inside him.

He had the Celestial God Civilization’s army mobilized—not so much to welcome the newcomers, more to show off his ability.

These fortress battleships wouldn’t be taken seriously by someone like Athena, a Federal Heiress.

But...

To have such a massive power in the Star System Wasteland Server, all with his own ability—

This was the display of the Divine Bloodline within him, and his terrifying potential!

"It’s coming."

Han Ling looked up, gazing into the void above.

There, space was breaking apart, inch by inch.

Dazzling golden rays burst forth, lighting up the whole starfield.

The golden light even spilled out past the Central Star Realm, sweeping neighboring star realms.

Lords of all the major civilization powers tensed up, minds on edge.

Eyes from outside the star realm stared in.

Countless people, curious and expectant, wondered what kind of big shot from the High Dimension was arriving—and why?

Boom—

Rumble—!

Suddenly.

The whole starry sky was swallowed in the roaring noise.

The entire Star System Wasteland Server shook violently.

This time, even the remote star realms at the edges of the Wasteland felt the tremor.

Dawn Fortress, in the Serenity Star System Group, creeping forward to close the siege circle, also felt a strong quake!

"Huh?"

"What’s going on?"

"Why are the Star System Wasteland Server rules so messed up and unstable?"

Tower of the Sky.

Naiya, deep in isolated training and determined to break through another Tier before the next battle, suddenly opened her eyes.

Her bright, watery gaze now carried a hint of confusion.

Meanwhile.

Upper levels of the Tower of the Sky.

Nasha, obsessed with researching her new ’Rope’ Attribute and using Dongfang Li as her experimental subject, also froze for an instant.

"Hm?"

Nasha looked up at the starry sky outside the fortress.

Her eyebrows knit slightly.

For some reason.

She had a feeling...

A new student was about to arrive?

Right now.

She was Lord Yu Jin’s true favorite, the real mentor of the Dawn Fortress harem!

Any woman wishing to enter the Tower of the Sky’s top floors, Yu Jin’s private zone, had to pass through her training first.

Let alone—

The love ticket numbers were issued by her personally!

"Lady Nasha?"

Dongfang Li, her clothes scandalously revealing, bound in torturous turtle-shell rope, called quietly.

"Oh."

"No problem—let’s keep going!"

Nasha didn’t even look up as she answered.

Then, she continued testing her newly awakened ’Rope’ Attribute on Dongfang Li and the others...

...

...

Central Star Realm.

This was the source of the Star System Wasteland Server’s upheaval.

Endless void kept collapsing.

Golden light covered everything.

In this moment.

Even Han Ling, usually arrogant, showed more seriousness on his once-defiant face.

Even if he was a Divine Bloodline descendant, he still hadn’t come fully into his power.

Compared to Athena, a Federal Heiress with truly monstrous backing, even he now had to rein it in.

Boom—

Rumble—!

Another violent shake.

At last.

Under the gaze of countless subordinates aboard Celestial God Civilization’s fortress battleships.

And as Han Ling awaited, serious and solemn.

Interstellar Battleships—shape totally different from anything in the Star System Wasteland and exponentially more powerful—burst out of the void, arriving with thunder.

Boom—!

Behind the battleships, there were massive Interstellar Fortresses bringing up the rear.

The size of the fortresses was beyond words.

The Star System Wasteland’s super large fortresses seemed like babies next to adults.

Even Han Ling’s pride and joy, the Nash Clan-dropped central fortress, looked faded and shabby now.

"Miss!"

"We’ve arrived!"

Inside the foremost Golden Battleship, a maid’s soft voice brought Athena back from her meditation.

She looked up, casting a casual glance out the porthole.

Countless battleships, countless fortresses, countless mechas...

But in Athena’s eyes, there wasn’t a ripple.

Divine Bloodline descendant?

Han Ling?

In front of Yu Jin, they were nothing at all.

She’d come to Drake-3 Star System Wasteland purely to follow her father’s instructions, just going through the motions.

"But..."

"Han Ling has managed to command such a huge civilization corps in the Star System Wasteland."

"Maybe..."

"I can have him help search for Yu Jin in this star system?"

"It’ll save me trouble, since so many Star System Wasteland Servers still await later..."

Athena suddenly had this thought in her heart.

Her original lack of interest finally changed; she decided to meet Han Ling in person.

...

...

Endless Starry Sky.

High Dimension fortress battleships dominated the air.

Celestial God Civilization Corps, suppressed beneath them.

Han Ling, clad in splendid attire, led several trusted generals to meet Athena.

Athena had Ah Long and Don Flack by her side.

The duo both glanced Han Ling up and down with curiosity.

Before arriving at Drake-3 Star System Wasteland, they’d learned about Han Ling—legendary Divine Bloodline descendant.

So...

They were a bit curious about Han Ling themselves.

But that was all—just curious.

If Yu Jin didn’t exist, maybe they’d respect or even admire him.

But—

They’d witnessed Yu Jin’s terrifying power firsthand.

Divine Bloodline descendant?

Go talk that up to Lord Yu Jin!

"Miss Athena!"

Han Ling took the initiative, breaking the silence at the meeting.

He was, in fact, slightly losing face by starting things.

But...

Han Ling held himself back.

He hadn’t developed his power enough yet—he had to bow his head.

One day...

He’d shine in the cosmic genius tournaments...

This high-and-mighty Federal Heiress would have to serve him sweetly!

"Hm?"

Athena caught the flicker in Han Ling’s eyes, Liu Mei slightly furrowing.

Originally.

She’d meant to say a few pleasantries, but now, instantly lost interest.

Athena shook her head, glanced at Ah Long and Don Flack.

The two understood, nodded, then looked at Han Ling and said in deep voices:

"Han Ling?"

"Your welcoming ceremony’s not bad!"

"Miss Athena is fairly satisfied!"

Just two sentences, sounding like praise.

But—

When they reached Han Ling’s ears, his forehead veins started twitching.

No way!

Even if he hadn’t grown into his power, he was a Divine Bloodline descendant, rare in a millennium!

The dignified Nash Clan could only treat him with respect!

But now?

Athena’s attitude toward him...

Was polar opposites! Saying she didn’t care about him at all was an understatement!

"Hoo—"

Han Ling took in his stunned generals’ confused stares, tried to swallow his rage, inhaled deeply, and looked at Athena.

He put on a fake smile and spoke word by word:

"And these two are..."

After speaking.

Athena still didn’t answer.

Ah Long and Don Flack exchanged looks, and burst out laughing.

"Us?"

"Just Miss Athena’s average underlings!"

Their casual reply made Han Ling’s chest rise and fall again.

The next instant.

Before he could say more—

Don Flack tossed out some words that left Han Ling frozen in place.

"Han Ling, right?"

"You’re the boss of this Star System Wasteland, so you must be pretty capable?"

"We’re here in Star System Wasteland to find someone. You should be able to help."

"His name is Yu Jin!"
