Chapter 431 - Captain, the Enemy is Too Cunning!
There are also safes in the world of cultivation.
In addition to the interdimensional space, the gold and fire iron box is also the most common item for saving. Without the specially marked “key”, no matter how high your personal ability is, there is no way to open the treasure box. Even the spiritual mind cannot get inside. What’s worse, forcibly opening the safe only destroys it—what a detrimental way of saving?
White Fairy has got two keys to her safe.
Lin Luoran sneers, taking out the Bright Sword. No wonder White Fairy thought she was the successor of the Misty Peaks clan. It turns out that for Misty Peaks, or White Fairy, this object, which looks like a two-headed phoenix hairpin, is not a random five-grade flying sword.
Lin Luoran remembers what she has seen in the underwater palace of the Secret Territory. She saw the body of a woman in white. The dead woman looks exactly the same as White Fairy. The mural behind shows a grand wedding on Zu Mountain, where the bride wears the double-headed phoenix hairpin… If there is only one Sword of Bright Snow, the key to White Fairy’s safe, then the bride must be White Fairy.
Thinking of Possession of the woman in white, Lin Luoran shivers.
She suddenly doesn’t know whether she should trust the ” White Fairy ” who has been her teacher and friend.
Are they twins? Or the same person split by two consciousnesses with different personalities?
“What are you waiting for? Open it!” White Fairy turns to Lin Luoran, her face so beautiful as the peony flower. Even in the world of cultivation, she is a rare beauty.
Calming herself down, Lin Luoran puts the hairpin into the keyhole. With the look of a phoenix hairpin, the sword spins at high speed. From time to time, golden light leaks out. White Fairy tells Lin Luoran to get out of the room with her. Following a huge explosion, the whole palace shakes back and forth.
Lin Luoran is not allowed to enter again until the smoke clears.
Lin Luoran is stunned that the palace seems to be raged by a hurricane. White Fairy back then was nothing soft. Unaware of the result, anyone who tries to open the safe with the Sword of Bright Snow will be killed. The explosion and golden needles nailed into the wall are not just for ordinary people.
White Fairy then asks her to make a strange Taoist hand gesture. After removing the debris, they find the sword and the box lying intact on the ground.
What’s inside is a Storage Bag.
“I am a soul now. You can help me keep the Storage Bag. The upper-grade spirit stones inside are yours. As for the rest, you can have whatever you see as useful… Unfortunately, you don’t have the snow hairpin to open the other box. Things in the other one are more precious than these. ”
Snow Sword is in the hands of Baojia. But no one knows where she is.
Without looking into the Storage Bag, Lin Luoran picks it up.
White Fairy glances at the damaged old palace and sighs. “Come on, those alien barbarians have made such a mess in Misty Peaks. I can’t let them go without causing them some trouble.”
Since White Fairy learned that Lin Luoran owned the waters and just formed her godhead, she has never again called herself “your highness”. Being both a teacher and a friend, White Fairy often teaches Lin Luoran some powerful spells to use in the late Bearing Essence. To figure out who that woman in white is, Lin Luoran pretends to ask casually.
“Do you have sisters and relatives? Maybe we can find some of them if we work on that.”
“My relatives?” White Fairy pauses for a moment, and then replies with rare sarcasm, “Immortality means no mercy. Even my closest relatives cannot last for a hundred years… I did have an elder brother before I pursued personal ability. Yet when I finished practice and went back home, I found the whole village had suffered a plague. Nobody had survived. Even if the Bai family did, I don’t have a clue about where they are now.
Lin Luoran is surprised. “Only one elder brother, no sisters?”
White Fairy hides her loneliness under the cover of sarcasm and wonders. “You are so weird today. If I have any sister, how can I not remember it? Are you ready to beat up those aliens or not?”
Lin Luoran nods. “Well, of course, I am.”
Lin Luoran feels a bit odd. White Fairy has no sister. Then who is the woman in the Crystal Palace? A chill runs down her spine. She follows White Fairy along the way, walking quickly to the transparent mountain.
Viewed from here, the starship creeps through the rolling mountains. Standing in front of it, anyone would look tiny. Bathing in light reflected by the snow and ice of Mount Everest, the unknown alloy shines with mysteriously noble silver glitter.
This is a behemoth with no welding gap, nor an entrance.
“What an ugly thing.”
In White Fairy’s eyes, the manned starship is just another form of the magic weapon. But these flat box-like magic weapons are not good-looking at all.
Lin Luoran almost laughs at White Fairy’s comments, if she has nothing to worry about.
The Alliance Garrison who thinks highly of itself should listen to White Fairy! Lin Luoran stares at the starship and suddenly comes up with an idea.
Isn’t there a better option than attacking the starship from outside?
She can’t help but smile, making a set of Taoist hand gestures that are not so complicated.
She casts Spells of the Five Elements. Any alloy belongs to “gold”. Lin Luoran sighs. If the earth had united, it wouldn’t have been that easy for the Alpha Alliance to attack it.
Spells of the Five Elements are not difficult—with a glimmer, Lin Luoran disappears. The Misty Palace can not be detected by the Union Garrison. But Lin Luoran is out of it now. She shows up on the ground for just one second. And then a pillar of light hits the very spot, leaving nothing else but a deep hole.
“Attention—Attention—Target No. 1 is heading to the ground. Target No. 2 cannot be detected.”
The intelligent brain program issues a warning in its mechanical tone. Rather than reporting what has happened, it is more of a notification to the Alpha Alliance Garrison, whose response is way too slow.
Captain Gaut Sutherland gives the console a good kick. Meanwhile, the program has already sent a troop of microbots to chase the target underground.
“Target No. 1 is five hundred miles underground. It is quickly approaching the starship. Target No. 2 cannot be detected. Ready to start defense. Ready to start defense.”
“Start defense.”
The Three-eyed Colonel looks rough but acts calmly.
Despite his dissatisfaction, Gaut has no choice but to obey. After all, he is inferior to the Colonel.
Why do we go directly to defense? Does that mean we have to get beaten? This is completely different from Gaut Sutherland’s plan!
The Colonel looks determined and cold. He just stares at the data on the virtual screen. Those data have been transmitted by the microbots and analyzed by the program.
“Captain Gaut, our enemies this time are mysterious earth cultivators. They are cunning and powerful. Look at the data analysis.”
On the virtual screen, the vague yellow image captured before is enlarged.
After zoomed in, the image of an earth girl appears on the screen. Although her facial features are unclear, the outline remains recognizable. She is a charming girl even on the Caesar star. Yet the analysis from the program surprises Captain Gaut so much that his eyes overlap.
“No heartbeat. No pulsation. No temperature. Pure energy body. Matching target range: earth god system.”
Even the earth gods have come here!
Gaut Sutherland finally understands why the program suggests starting the defense. The Alliance is not afraid of cultivators. No matter how powerful cultivators are, they have flesh and bones… These bodies of pure energy are the most troublesome, for there is no technical approach to deal with them.
“The defense has been activated. The starship will be closed for 20 alliance minutes.”
…
White Fairy doesn’t know her appearance has caused huge chaos in the Alliance Garrison Base. She is now looking at the old objects in her space, recalling her past. Casting the spell of the element earth, Lin Luoran is the only one quickly approaching the starship.
However, the “flies” following behind are very annoying.
Lin Luoran pauses and waits. When the microbots fly closer, she targets them with her spiritual mind. A few strands of fire turned the microbots into a pool of liquid.
Before the tension inside escalates, she has got under the giant starship.
On the surface of the silver metal body, there is a glint of blue electrical flashes. Obviously, this thing doesn’t run on 220 civilian voltage commonly used by the Earth Federation.
This is a bit tricky because electricity doesn’t belong to Spells of the Five Elements—
Fine, it’s also fun to tease the garrisons by triggering the alarm! Wrapped in a magical shield, Lin Luoran gets closer to the blue electric light. Even with protection, her fingertips get numb the moment she touches it.
Damn! She casts the spell of gold with her right hand, dashing into the light. Suddenly, Lin Luoran disappears, leaving only the harsh alarm.
“Enemies invaded the bottom warehouse. Enemies invaded the bottom warehouse!”
Lin Luoran transmutes several microbots. Without analysis from the intelligent brain, the garrison knows that she is very likely to be in the bottom warehouse—Daily necessities and fuel are stored there. Besides, it also has the weakest defense.
Having heard the alarm, the armed lizardmen soldiers outside the warehouse do not rush in.
A bunch of messy transparent threads quickly pass through the warehouse, as if chasing a louse. The compressed food is cut into pieces. If Lin Luoran is hiding there, she will either get minced or have to expose herself.
The warehouse with fuel can not go through that. Lizardmen keep guarding the gate outside, they don’t want to die inside.
A yellow shadow comes out, moving past the soldiers.
“Target NO. 2 is here! Attention. Target NO. 2 is here!”
Lizardmen soldiers follow the shadow away. The warehouse falls into silence again. More than ten minutes pass, and White Fairy has teased the soldiers as she likes. Suddenly, something shows up on the dark silver wall. It is a pair of brilliant eyes.
