Chapter 1592: The Heavy Responsibility of Saving the Moon Is Left to You
Little Walnut knew full well that following the Holy Star meant continuing to be enslaved, with life and death entirely at the mercy of the Holy Envoy's whims!
But betting on Jiangnan meant gambling on a dream of the future. The choice was already obvious!
Little Walnut was a smart guy; the boss had already spelled it out!
And Jiangnan was worth the gamble!
A satisfied smile curled at the corner of Jiangnan's lips. "Good! Since we're all family now, I'll give you another upgrade!"
Little Walnut was stunned. "Still... still upgrading?"
Jiangnan spread his hands. "Did I ever say that the One-Eyed in my hands were limited to the Yuzu rank?"
Little Walnut's eyes sparkled with excitement. Following the boss was definitely the right choice!
Nightingale also let out a long sigh of relief. This time, they had completely laid their cards on the table with Little Walnut!
They had truly pulled him into the human camp. To fight for a future, they had to cling to humanity's thigh!
The biggest unstable factor in the defection plan had been dealt with by Jiangnan before he left!
And Jiangnan installed the eye he had previously plucked from Eva onto Little Walnut!
He became a bona fide Watermelon-level One-Eyed species!
As for Queen Hathaway's eye, Jiangnan kept it in his hands and didn't give it to Little Walnut all at once!
Rewards had to be given gradually!
After upgrading to the Watermelon eye, Little Walnut's body grew another size larger, making him extremely conspicuous in Tongcheng!
To better disguise himself and avoid detection, he was given a small pudding to mask his appearance as a Yuzu-level, so he wouldn't draw attention!
Now was not the time to reveal himself!
After handling all this, Jiangnan disguised himself as an inconspicuous One-Eyed species and quietly slipped out of Tongcheng!
He successfully extricated himself from the defection plan and headed for Silver Moon City!
On the way, Jiangnan thought about Rui Sen's ambush this time!
If it weren't for his arrangements in Tongcheng, the three guerrilla teams would likely have been wiped out!
Whether Rui Sen had realized the importance of the chat group and made the right bet, or had another channel for information,
Jiangnan had to be extremely careful, guarding against moles, especially concerning the Moon Eye operation!
This unexpected event made Jiangnan even more cautious!
He rushed all the way back to where Silver Moon City was located and returned to his own form!
Before he could even enter, Jiangnan was completely dumbfounded!
At this moment, the Moon Laurel Silver Vine had already reached a height of over a thousand meters, and the vine forest covered a range of hundreds of kilometers!
All the resources of the entire Blue Star were piled up frantically, pushing Little Moon Yue all the way to the Dao Heaven level!
With the efforts of various countries, the alliance base had been completely established during this period!
Centered on Silver Moon City, the bases of various countries had built vast, uniquely styled bases around it!
It was like branches sprouting from a main trunk, and even the city centers of each base had erected thick God-Slaying Spell Arrays!
Compared to before Jiangnan went to Tongcheng, there had been earth-shaking changes!
In a daze, Jiangnan seemed to see the future of the moon!
Jiangnan vigorously rubbed his cheeks and grinned.
(ᵔ◡ᵔ*) "When you want to do something, you can still do it well!"
Then he teleported and appeared in the Star Gate Hall!
Acting as if he had just returned from Blue Star through the Star Gate?
As soon as he appeared, it caused a commotion throughout the hall!
"Damn! Nan Shen? Is Nan Shen back? Did he manage to get enough Spirit Ruin Cores?"
"Sigh~ there are only three days until dawn. Nan Shen's timing is just right. Did you encounter any danger on the way?"
"Where are Piers, Baldr, and the others?"
Jiangnan grinned. "How could it be that fast? Not done yet. They don't really need me in the Spirit Ruin, so I came back!"
"You all keep busy; I'm going to find Jian Ge!"
With that, he teleported and disappeared from the Star Gate Hall!
Meanwhile, at the Silver Moon City Alliance Supreme Combat Command Center!
Everyone was gathered there. Dawn was approaching, and they were still worrying about the Moon Eye issue!
They were discussing countermeasures!
Just then, Jiangnan appeared abruptly, the golden "King" character on his head extremely conspicuous!
(Oﾟٹﾟ)ﾂ "Yo~ Sup, y'all! Motherf*cker! I, Jiang the Demon, am back!"
Everyone in the conference room was stunned, then their eyes lit up with surprise!
Sea God Bruce Fish rolled his eyes!
(꒪ัД꒪ั◟) "We've been waiting so long that the flowers have withered. If you hadn't come back, the moon would be gone!"
And Yang Jian, who had an ice pack on his head, suddenly widened his eyes and stood up from his chair!
Σ(ଵ口ଵ|||)
Jiang... Jiangnan?
Wasn't he supposed to be in Tongcheng? He even pulled off an inside-outside cooperation to help Bai Kou and the others snatch a batch of Origin Sparks!
And he's back already?
Bai Kou and the others only returned not long ago, damn it!
At this moment, Yang Jian even felt a sense of disconnection!
What the hell is going on?
=͟͟͞͞(꒪_꒪‧̣̥̇) "Did... did you finish collecting the Spirit Ruin Cores?"
Jiangnan waved his hand, looking proud!
(︶.̮︶*)ﾉ "Almost. Baldr and the others are handling the rest. I was worried, so I came back to check!"
Yang Jian swallowed hard!
Good grief! He's pretty much finished the defection plan, dumped the rest on them, and came back to stir up trouble!
Isn't that what Jiangnan meant?
In just a few days, he had completed the defection plan? And Mi Ye, Craig, and the others all came back alive!
Yang Jian even found it a bit eerie!
Just then, Xia Yao smiled and ran up behind Jiangnan!
(ꐦ⌒.̫⌒) "Glad you're back safe. Was this mission tiring? Let me give you a shoulder rub!"
[From Xia Yao's Resentment Points +777!]
With that, her small hands landed on Jiangnan's shoulders and squeezed hard!
Jiangnan's eyes bulged, feeling like his shoulder blades were about to be crushed!
Cold sweat dripped from his forehead!
(‧̣̥̇๑ŏ﹏ŏ) "Not... not too tired, so no need to rub, ahaha~ ahaha~"
Xia Yao pouted: (乛₃乛ꐦ) "How can that be? You've worked so hard; it's only right to help you relieve your fatigue!"
As she spoke, she pinched even harder, and Jiangnan's mouth twitched!
Even Zhong Yingxue came over!
(ꐦᵒ̴̶̷⥎ᵒ̴̶̷) "After all this traveling, have you lost weight? Come on, let me check!"
[From Zhong Yingxue's Resentment Points +777!]
Then her hand landed on the soft flesh of Jiangnan's waist and pinched hard!
Jiangnan: (‧̣̥̇´థжథ) Mmm~
Attacked from both sides? Who can withstand this?
I'll never lie to you again, okay? Please spare me!
Mila smiled mischievously: (｡ಡ▿ಡ) "Jiangnan Gege? Want me to massage your legs? Mila can help~"
Jiangnan covered his face: (ﾉ)﹏(ヾ) "No... no need. Your enthusiasm is too much for me to handle!"
At the conference table, Mi Ye was also relieved to see Jiangnan return safely!
She didn't want to tell him about the danger they had just encountered, afraid he would worry!
Jiangnan's expression turned serious!
"What are you all studying? Why does everyone look so troubled?"
Yang Jian sighed: "It's still the Moon Eye problem. At this rate, we can't make any substantial repair to the Moon Eye!"
"Another three days until the dawn on the far side of the moon, and the sunlight will shine everywhere. Then there truly won't be any chance!"
Bruce raised an eyebrow: (◞՞д՞) "Speaking of the round table meeting, your China took on the Star-Devouring Giant Worm matter!"
"It's already this late; why haven't you taken action? Although guerrilla warfare is useful, it doesn't play a decisive role!"
"Keep dragging this out, and we'll just watch the moon get chewed to pieces!"
At that, Yang Jian's face darkened!
Mi Ye slammed the table and glared!
(ꐦᵒ̌口ᵒ̌)۶Σ┳━┳
"Why are you shouting so loud? Speak to him properly! If you're so capable, go deal with that worm yourself!"
As soon as Mi Ye spoke, Bruce shrank back and shut up!
Ba Di's expression hardened: "How about... let me try? If I can survive being swallowed by the Star-Devouring Giant Worm, see if I can attack from the inside..."
Before Ba Di could finish, Jiangning emerged from the void and shook her head!
"Let alone whether you'll be decomposed into energy by the Star-Devouring Giant Worm, even with your attack power, attacking from the inside wouldn't kill it!"
"It's better not to waste effort and risk your life for nothing!"
Everyone in the conference room sighed!
Even Ba Di couldn't do it? There was no way!
But Jiangnan smiled: (•́.̫•̀) "Hey hey hey! I never said I wasn't going to deal with the Star-Devouring Giant Worm!"
"What do you think I came back early for? Dawn is approaching; it's time to put the plan for the Moon Eye on the agenda!"
Bai Kou looked at Jiangnan with anticipation!
(❅ง⁰̷̴˘⁰̷̴)ง "Do you have a plan? What do you need us to do?"
Jiangnan raised a finger: "Shift the attack target. For the next period of time, focus the harassment attacks on the Fire Seed warehouse in Tongcheng!"
Everyone was stunned!
What kind of trick was this? Instead of targeting the Moon Eye, they were hitting Tongcheng?
Wasn't that putting the cart before the horse?
Mi Ye looked confused: (•︠～•︡O) "Are you sure? What about the Moon Eye?"
Jiangning was taken aback: "Are you trying to keep Rui Sen tied up in Tongcheng?"
Jiangnan nodded with a smile: "With Rui Sen watching the Moon Eye, the plan can't be implemented. It's too passive!"
"The plan still needs to be kept secret. I'll give specific arrangements when the operation begins!"
"There's not much time until dawn. There's still too much to do. We need to move quickly!"
"Speaking of which, where's my third brother? This can't be done without him!"
Everyone was taken aback. Who was the third brother?
(#҉)҉་3་(҉#҉)ﾂ "Here~"
A completely swollen Zhang San, triple his normal size, sat sulking in the corner of the conference room!
Trembling, he put the thick gold chain back around his neck!
And warily protected the blade of grass on his head!
Jiangnan was stunned. Good grief! How did Third Brother end up here?
And beaten to such a state? He must have taken quite a beating!
Jiangnan teleported to Zhang San's side and patted his shoulder reassuringly!
(∗ớ₃ờ)ھ "The heavy responsibility of saving the moon is left to you!"
Zhang San looked warily at Jiangnan and said with a mournful face!
(#҉)҉థᯅథ(҉#҉) "Can... can we get someone else? Saving the moon is too damn painful!"
Jiangnan: (´ﾟωﾟ)ﾂ "Eh? There's a blade of grass on your head. Let me pluck it for you..."
Zhang San: !!!
Nan Shen approached me just to pluck my grass!
This bastard is secretly wicked!
"Don't... don't pluck it!"
