Chapter 178: Chapter 177: Mechanical Titled Legendary –

Starlight

Translator: 549690339

As Bai Qi was racking his brain for a way to escape, a giant portal suddenly appeared in the void above their heads. A brilliant beam of light shot out from the portal. Through the intense light, they could faintly make out a humanoid figure.

This phenomenon instantly attracted the mountain giant’s attention. Bai Qi asked Alpha to stop and stared blankly at the sky.

Shit, a light giant!

Is the power of faith really so strong that it can summon one out!

Very soon, the light giant in Bai Qi’s eyes emerged from the portal. The intense light around it disappeared, revealing a gigantic humanoid mechanical creature.

This mechanical creature was made entirely of black metal, with a long spear made from the same material on its back. From time to time, there were twinkling stars on its colossal body.

Upon closer inspection, Bai Qi found that this humanoid mechanical creature was in no way inferior to the mountain giant. When compared to Xia Van’s Original Beast God, they were as different as a child and an adult.

“Starlight, a mysterious large black mechanic, could it be…?”

As he looked at the gigantic mechanical creature standing in front of him, Bai Qi murmured to himself and quickly figured out its origin.

The idol of all mechanics, one of the mightiest in the Federation, the Titled Legendary of the Mechanical Engineering Department, “Starlight,” – Wang Chen.

This enormous humanoid mechanical creature was none other than the strategic-level mechanical creation, Morning Star, named after Wang Chen’s title.

It was said that this Morning Star was entirely made from special materials found in meteorites. Its attributes were all top-tier. Its power ranked among the top three throughout the Federation.

However, why was this Titled Legendary, Starlight, suddenly appearing in the Emperor’s Secret Realm? Was it due to knowing that they were in danger, or did some event occur within the Emperor’s Secret Realm?

As Bai Qi was wildly guessing, Starlight had already begun battling the mountain giant.

They were merely caught in the crosswind of a punch, Bai Qi and the others were blown away without power to resist, conveniently leaving the gravity field.

“What should we do now?”

Watching the clash of Starlight and the mountain giant not far away, Wang Huai and the others exchanged glances.

“It doesn’t seem like we have much of a choice, does it?”

Bai Qi shrugged. Their path to the entrance was blocked by Starlight and the mountain giant. If they dared to venture there, their small bodies wouldn’t withstand a single step from the giant.

Otherwise, he would have really liked to rumble with these two legendary pet beasts and directly fill up the progress of the Silver Egg.

As for staying here, well…

To put it bluntly, their staying here would essentially be a sacrifice.

“Let’s continue looking for another entrance then. The mountain giant has already come out. There can’t possibly be two…”

Halfway through FengYe’s sentence, Ma Ge and Lisha hurriedly covered his mouth, and the members of the Thirteenth Bureau looked at Feng Ye with faces filled with trepidation.

This fellow’s mouth is way more dangerous than core weaponry. He could even invite legendary creatures into existence.

They figured that if there were any conflicts with the Ferocious Beast Tribe in the future, they should promptly send this chatterbox over there to babble on. He should be able to annihilate the tribe entirely.

With this thought, the members of the Thirteenth Bureau unanimously nodded their heads.

Right, that’s the plan!

“First, let’s find a way to cross this big pit. It seems like the range of the battles between those two is expanding.”

Bai Qi looked at the increasingly large area of destruction caused by Morning Star and the mountain giant, and quickly suggested.

“Sister Li, can you open your space channel?”

Lisha shook her head and said, “It seems the Moon Shadow Cat was frightened and can’t use its ability.”

XiaYan said, “We’ll handle this.”

The pink-robed warrior immediately understood, summoning his flying dinosaur, placing everyone on its back, and flying towards the big pit. Everyone else quickly put away their pet beasts as well.

While it was referred to as a big pit, this collapse was more fitting to be described as a chasm since it was formed when the mountain giant rose.

Apart from the part where the mountain giant had disappeared, the land on both sides had also split open, extending into a long rift.

At the bottom of the chasm, one could faintly see the black magma slowly flowing.

“Black magma?”

Bai Qi furrowed his brows at this sight. When the temperature of the magma reaches a certain level, it indeed turns into dark red, but this was his first time seeing black magma.

Furthermore, Bai Qi couldn’t help but feel that this magma bore some resemblance to Alpha’s Withering Breath.

No, it was even purer.

Other people also noticed the peculiarity of the magma. However, their current task was not to study the magma but to find the entrance, so they only took a glance before losing interest.

Yet before they could cross the chasm, the black magma in the rift suddenly started to boil violently. Bubbles kept popping, and some magma even splashed onto the talons of the dinosaur.

“Reporting Captain, the wings of the pterosaur have been corroded by an unknown substance and are ruined.”

The Pink Soldier reported their situation immediately, and before Xia Yan could respond, the pterosaur dropped as if it had lost control, heading straight towards the magma.

“What’s going on?!”

Seeing this, everyone froze instantly. Feng Ye immediately summoned an Earth Elemental to reduce the pterosaur’s weight, Alpha also used Gravity Amplification to help the Earth Elemental, and Lisha’s Moon Shadow Cat finally released their skill, creating an extra-large tunnel underneath the pterosaur.

Just as everyone relaxed, the black magma below exploded instantly and the sky filled with magma charged towards everyone.

“Damnit!”

The magma came unexpectedly, the Moon Shadow Cat had no time to create another spatial tunnel for defense, and the Earth Elemental could only defend by splitting off a lump of rubble from itself. Yet, it only managed to defend for a moment before disappearing completely.

What kind of hellish magma was this, why was it so terrifying!

Seeing the magma getting closer to them, Li Xusheng stood up right away, sliced open his own arm, and a large amount of blood gushed out, transforming into a wall of blood in front of everyone.

The black magma was blocked by the blood wall, but the blood wall visibly turned completely black, and the magma even seemed to come to life, spreading along the blood towards Li Xusheng.

Obviously, if Li Xusheng let this black substance spread onto him, he would likely meet the same end as the rubble.

“Alpha, go help!”

Seeing this, Bai Qi immediately sent Alpha to help. With a swing of the Withering Sword, it severed the connection between Li Xusheng and the blood wall, and at the same time, the Withering Breath was released in an attempt to freeze the magma.

If this magma was really similar to what Bai Qi had sensed, to the Withering Breath’s attribute, theoretically, the Withering Breath should be able to block it for a while.

This time, the movement of the black magma finally stopped, and Li Xusheng also fell to the ground, barely standing with Wang Huai’s help.

Although his physique was not ordinary and he wouldn’t die immediately after shedding all his blood, the premise was that the blood had to be taken back.

Now, all the blood was corroded by the black material and melded into the magma, so it was obviously impossible to get it back.

Taking advantage of when Bai Qi was using Withering Breath to resist the black magma, the Pink Soldier promptly made the pterosaur fall into the spatial tunnel created by Moon Shadow Cat.

As long as they went through the spatial tunnel, they could reach the other side and be safe.

Just then, the black magma that was still confronting Withering Breath suddenly exploded, splashing towards Bai Qi. Alpha wanted to swing his sword in defense but suddenly slumped to the ground, incapable of doing anything but watching the black magma hurl towards Bai Qi.

Crispness?

(What’s this smell, something I haven’t tasted before?)

Just at that moment, Gamma, who hadn’t been of any help and was sleeping, woke up leisurely. Seeing the sky full of black magma, he instinctively expanded his body to wrap Bai Qi.

The black magma fell on Gamma, and Gamma’s body instantly started giving off a hissing sound. His glossy body visibly shriveled up immediately.

Even more, Bai Qi felt the connection between him and Gamma was gradually fading.

This black magma was robbing Gamma of his vitality!

Crackle Crackle!

(Boss, get out of here quick!)

Barely standing up, Alpha pushed Bai Qi into the spatial tunnel. Bai Qi instantly appeared on the other side of the crack, and he immediately withdrew Twin Pets into the pet space and used the Evolution Egg straight away.

Ever since he got the Evolution Egg, no matter what injuries Alpha sustained, just using the Evolution Egg once would heal him completely.

So, Bai Qi thought of this solution for the abnormalities on their bodies at the first moment.

Just when the Silver Egg took shape, a trace of black spread on the eggshell, covering more than half of it in a few seconds.

Simultaneously, the body of the Evolution Egg seemed to sense the threat, continuously vibrating, releasing dazzling silver light to wash over the black color on the eggshell, and that black color really did slow down its spread.

Seeing this, Bai Qi reacted immediately, gripping the Green Dragon Scale tightly and continuously stacking Silver Eggs on Twin Pets.

After they didn’t know how many Silver Eggs were stacked, black material no longer spread on the eggshell of Twin Pets and the body of Evolution Egg finally calmed down.

“Safe at last…”

After confirming that the state of Twin Pets’ Silver Eggs were stable, Bai Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He lay straight down on the ground, looking at the Green Dragon Scale in his hand that had dimmed quite a bit, feeling a profound sense of gratitude.

Nicholas really had saved his life this time. If it weren’t for the Green Dragon Scale, using the Evolution Egg recklessly like he just did would surely have been a deadly move.

When they get back, he’d definitely have to express his gratitude properly.

“Bai Qi, are you alright?”

Feng Ye moved closer to Bai Qi with anxiety on his face, and asked in a suppressed tone, while Wang Huai summoned a Flower Fairy to help Bai Qi recover, but he looked extremely worried.

Even though they didn’t know what the black magma was, the Pterosaur lying beside, about to shut down, already illustrated how terrifyingly dreadful this black substance was.

This substance seemed to even be able to kill energy!
