NABC Chapter 391 Starfall
Chapter 391 Starfall
"Yi-yi, remember to give me a boost as soon as I get exhausted!"
Xu Si wasn't afraid of anything else, but he was worried that he wouldn't even have the energy to initiate the Starlink jump, which would be truly embarrassing.
"Mmm," they nodded earnestly and carefully.
She knew that once Xu Si spoke, it would be an absolutely crucial moment.
Xu Si was a little nervous when he used "Starfall" for the first time.
The description of this feature is somewhat exaggerated.
Therefore, he prepared the Time Badge and the Space Cloak in advance.
What if we provoke some unknown entity?
In critical moments, these life-saving measures are the last resort.
The main reason is that Xu Si had never used this feature before, so he had no idea what the outcome would be.
Now that he has such a good opportunity, he decided to give it a try.
It's good to be mentally prepared if I need to use it again in the future.
……
Xu Si hovered in mid-air, getting further and further away from the vortex.
The crows in the sky were no longer visible.
He hovered on the mountain ridge at the edge of the pit, the blood-red sun sinking behind him into a dark red silhouette.
He took a deep breath, contracted his star veins to their limit, and focused all his senses on the dark spiral abyss beneath his feet.
The remaining snakes had fallen completely silent; even their buzzing had dissipated in the winds of the wasteland.
Deep within the pit, only that eerie, lingering aura from a high position still pulsed slowly, like a dormant heart.
"Starfall".
Xu Si uttered those two words in a low voice.
This is a trait he has never used since being promoted to Rank 5.
It's not that I don't want to use it, it's that I'm afraid to.
Xu Si raised his right hand, palm down, fingers slightly spread.
A crimson orb of light emerged from his palm and hovered directly above the pit.
In that instant, his sequence energy began to drain away frantically.
First comes a trickle, then a rushing river, and finally an unstoppable waterfall.
Those invisible energies were drawn from his body, reflecting off a shooting star in the endless starry sky.
His sequence energy was being consumed at an incredible rate, and within just a few breaths, it had been depleted.
A near-instinctive sense of exhaustion left Xu Si feeling deeply powerless, unable even to fly.
His body fell straight down, and his consciousness gradually faded.
"Xu Si!" Yi Yi's voice rang in Xu Si's ears, filled with barely suppressed anxiety.
At this moment, she was holding onto his cloak to prevent him from falling, while desperately pouring energy into his body.
Xu Si opened his eyes with difficulty, and just as he had expected, the energy consumption was terrifying.
His sequence energy only stopped pouring out when he landed.
But the pouring of energy into each individual did not stop.
He then vaguely sensed something and looked up at the sky.
A deep purple sky was trembling at that moment.
No, it's not the sky that's trembling; something is piercing through it.
A point of light fell from deep space.
Trailing a long, burning tail, it seemed to be tearing the entire sky to shreds.
Xu Si's vision gradually cleared, and he looked at the scarlet orb above the pit, which seemed to be the anchor point of the meteorite.
The unknown entity within the crater seemed to sense the danger as well, and at the moment the meteorite struck, a roar of resentment echoed from the bottom of the crater.
Xu Si did not see the true face of the person in question, because he was already extremely weak at this point.
If we hadn't given him blood transfusions, he might have really collapsed and died.
"They're here." Xu Si said, as if sensing something.
He reached out and pulled Yi Yi into his arms, and then starlight enveloped him.
The moment a meteor falls, time seems to stretch out infinitely.
Xu Si looked down from his high vantage point.
You can see the air being compressed into a white shock wave that is visible to the naked eye;
The rock strata at the edge of the pit can be seen melting under high temperatures;
You can see the meteorite piercing straight through the crater.
Then--
boom.
The world exploded into a pale white expanse before Xu Si's eyes.
There was no sound, or rather, the sound was beyond the limits of his hearing.
A violent tremor, coming from deep underground, a tremor powerful enough to shatter bones.
The shockwave, carrying debris and dust, spread in all directions, and even the mountain ridge where Xu Si was located was not spared.
The space was instantly disturbed, thwarting his plan to hide in the folded space.
Xu Si felt as if his body had been slammed and hit on the ground countless times.
Fortunately, Yi Yi had just infused him with restorative energy, allowing him to use Starshine Protection to shield himself from harm.
Next came a scorching wave that hit me, so hot it felt like it was going to burn my skin.
"Xu Si! Are you alright?" Yi Yi desperately poured energy into his body.
In fact, his star anchor had already received the energy infusion from the blood sun.
"It can still hold up." Xu Si squinted, staring at the center of the pit.
The area was now completely shrouded in smoke and dust.
However, Xu Si's star-like eyes could still see that the spiral patterns had completely disappeared.
The original spiral-shaped pit looked as if it had been turned upside down.
The deepest pit at the very center has expanded dozens of times.
Purification Points: +500
Purification Points: +800
Purification Points: +1200
……
The purification point arrived late, and the final number settled at [155400].
There are about 60,000 more than when we arrived.
Xu Si's lips twitched.
Sure enough, the greater the risk, the more expensive the fish.
However, what upset Xu Si was that he didn't receive a large sum of purification points, amounting to tens of thousands.
In other words, they were eliminating small karami.
What was that fierce roar just now?
"Ugh..." As if in response to Xu Si's thoughts, a shrill scream came from the bottom of the pit, indicating that the victim had suffered a serious injury.
How come they're still alive?
Xu Si was dumbfounded.
"Xu Si..." Yi Yi's voice trembled, clearly sensing something.
Xu Si did not hesitate and immediately initiated Starlink Jump.
A dark red light instantly enveloped him.
The next second, his figure appeared in mid-air dozens of kilometers away.
The salary train was right beneath our feet.
Xu Si immediately used the Star Screen to cover the entire convoy.
"Old Xu, did you order Miss Qiu?"
The convoy felt like it had been struck by lightning even from dozens of kilometers away, so it's no wonder Fu Xiaojian asked that question.
Xu Si was stunned for a moment before he understood what Xu Si meant.
However, this is not the time to explain.
Because as he was leaving, he saw something he absolutely did not want to see emerging from the pit.
"Shut up." Xu Si immediately reminded him, his hair standing on end.
Before the words were even finished, a black column of smoke shot into the sky on the northwest horizon.
The plume of smoke didn't seem to be from combustion; it was more like the breath exhaled by some kind of creature—thick, foul-smelling, and carrying a nauseating, rotten odor.
The column of smoke pierced the sky, momentarily obscuring the blood-red sun.
"Roar..." Then came a long howl.
Ancient and melodious, carrying with it an aura of primal fear.
Then everyone in the convoy saw something enormous shooting straight into the sky from that black column of smoke.
