Chapter 2427: Gathered as a Flame! Scattered as Stars Everywhere
(¯͒〰¯͒) "Don't show me mercy just because I'm a delicate flower... hurry up..."
Before Li Si could finish, Zi Yuan mustered all her strength and slapped a mighty palm right across his face!
(๑˃～˂)۶(#)꒪ͦ3꒪ͦ)
With a sharp "Smack~", his head jerked to the side, and one stroke of the "zheng" character on him suddenly vanished!
From "zheng" it became "zhi"!
At the same time, Chong Kun Chong, hidden deep behind the swarm and about to throw harsh words at Mi Ye, inexplicably felt her own head jerk to the side, a fiery sting spreading across her cheek!
(#)꒪3꒪)?
Chong Kun Chong: (ﾉ)꒪ൠ꒪)???
She covered her face, looking around in shock and suspicion!
"Who! Who hit me? Insect sense!"
Could there be a human expert lurking beside her? Impossible, how could they have crossed all the defenses?
Meanwhile, Li Si's cheeks flushed, and he let out a sharp shiver. Yeah, that's the feeling—awesome!
But he still looked at Zi Yuan with contempt:
(止￢～￢) "Is that all you've got? You look down on me, or on Chong Kun Chong? No wonder Nan Shen calls you Trash Yuan!"
"Your damage output is pathetically weak, you know?"
Zi Yuan: !!!
(งᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌)ง "Who? Who's weak? Damn it! Say that again and I'll beat you to death!"
With that, Zi Yuan kicked out, landing a fierce blow right in the middle of Li Si's "big" character!
(꒪ͦ◊꒪ͦ⸝⸝) "Yahoo~"
At that moment, Li Si rolled his eyes back, letting out a triumphant howl!
The "zhi" character turned into "shang"!
(இ益இ‧̣̥̇) "Eeeyah~"
At the same time, Chong Kun Chong let out a miserable scream, eyes wide with bloodshot veins, clutching her vital area and curling up into a ball on the transport insect!
Who the hell is hitting me! And targeting such an unspeakable spot!
Shameless!
Seeing that the attack really worked—the damage dealt to Li Si was all transferred to Chong Kun Chong—Zi Yuan realized that as long as Li Si was around, even if she was just a weakling, she could hit whoever she wanted!
Excited beyond belief, Zi Yuan seemed addicted, kicking Li Si over and over again, shouting "Yah hee yah hee~" nonstop!
Li Si bit his fingernails, his face full of pleasure!
(⸝⸝ᵒ̴̶̷᷄ꇴᵒ̴̶̷᷅⸝⸝) "Yeah... that's it! Come on!"
And Chong Kun Chong rolled and screamed in agony. Liu Mang rolled his eyes: "Sister Zi Yuan! That's not the way! You gotta do it like this!"
He stretched out his wicked hand, gave Li Si's "Heavenly Eye" a powerful poke, then grabbed the eyeball and twisted it vigorously clockwise 720 degrees!
Then yanked it outward~
Li Si's eyes bulged:
Σ(ଵ◊ଵ|||) "Yoo hoo hoo hoo~"
But Chong Kun Chong screamed even louder, frantically pounding the transport insect!
_(१益१」∠)_ "Ahhh~ Stop pulling! It's about to fall off! Pain pain pain~ Damn it, what the hell is going on?"
Seeing this opportunity, the two sisters Mountain Cat and Luo Tianqing wouldn't let it slip!
They rushed at Li Si and unleashed a violent barrage of attacks, punching right through his body!
As the injuries transferred, Li Si's body frantically regenerated, but on Chong Kun Chong's body, blood holes exploded out of nowhere, causing severe damage!
Even regeneration was useless; the holes kept reopening!
Xuan Se broke out in a cold sweat:
꒰⸝⸝•́ω•̀٥⸝⸝꒱ "Y-you okay? I told you not to get involved. Look what happened!"
Chong Kun Chong spat out a mouthful of blood, her face full of gloom:
(#)꒪3꒪ͦ(#) "Impossible! It can't be! Why isn't my talent skill working? What kind of attack is this? Why can't I defend against it?"
Her gaze fell on Li Si, who was being used as a human punching bag. Was it because of him? All the damage he takes gets transferred to me?
What kind of principle is that? What bizarre ability is this?
He gets beaten, and I become the victim? Hey!
"Purify! Eliminate! Clear negative status!"
Beams of purifying light rained down on her, and she even activated her domain, but it still couldn't stop her from being the victim!
At this rate, she was afraid she'd be beaten to death alive!
୧(இ益இ(#)୨ "Stop! Stop it right now! Don't hit him anymore! Isn't he your teammate?"
Liu Mang grinned evilly:
ᕕ(΄◞ิ౪◟ิ‵)୨ "We're beating our teammate on purpose!"
Li Si put his hands on his hips:
(#)ಡ3ಡ(#) "I enjoy being a victim. Mind your own business, will you?"
Liu Ming roared: "Giant Cannon Fire Lance!"
A blazing spear of fire stabbed fiercely into Li Si's bullseye!
Li Si: (#)ᵒ̌ꇴᵒ̌) "Ahhh~"
Chong Kun Chong: (#)థ◊థ) "Ahhh~"
Chong Kun Chong jumped on the spot, clutching her rear. You guys can't do this! I may be an insect emperor, but I've never experienced something this stimulating!
Seeing that the points had almost all been harvested, there was no point in persisting—it was just a waste of time!
Who knows what shameless things these scoundrels might do to Li Si next!
"Retreat! Pull back! Shift the battlefield! You just wait!"
Chong Kun Chong glared at Li Si resentfully, left a harsh threat, and clutching her rear, limped away with her insect army!
Li Si held his head high with a proud expression, white smoke rising from his body, his cheeks flushed with a hint of red!
(︶‿︶〃) "Ah~ sometimes... happiness is just that simple!"
Liu Mang exclaimed excitedly: "Fourth Brother! You're incredible! You even managed to disgust the leader of the Eighth Sequence into retreat? Aren't you basically invincible now?"
Li Si shyly scratched his head:
୧(〃⁼̴ꇴ⁼̴) "It only works well against carbon-based lifeforms. Against energy-type or material-type lifeforms, it's not very effective."
"But to be honest, I'd say Third Brother is the best. If he were here, taking the enemy leader's head among ten thousand troops would be like picking something out of a bag. I wonder where Third Brother is now... eh~"
And yet everyone automatically ignored the latter part of Li Si's words again!
Mi Ye waved her hand: "Let's go. Next match!"
...
Outside Julang City, the various Sequence Support Groups were dumbfounded. Chong Kun Chong, one of the Nine Insect Emperors and the insect race's leader, had been forced to retreat by an unknown human nobody?
What was his name? Li Si? Even his name was so perfunctory. They'd never heard of him before, damn it!
Chong Bi Shi's face turned ugly. Even with Chong Kun Chong's talent skill as support, she still fell for it?
Normal attacks should have been absolutely impossible to land. What kind of bizarre ability was this from humans?
Gasps broke out from time to time. Human combat teams were blooming everywhere in Chuangjie Daxu!
Yakeli, the lone ranger, with his explosion of domains that gave people goosebumps, sliced through one battlefield after another!
The combination of Ku Po and Freya: one used the Tree of Life to restore spirit energy and status to all human contestants; the other transformed into a Necromancer King, not only killing off contestants but also turning the corpses of Sequence contestants into his own undead army—extremely twisted!
In just a short while, he'd built an army of over thirty thousand!
Ke Laige, Mei Lin, Yamamoto Takeshi, Miyazaki Yuichi, Ma Ding, and the others were also working hard to harvest points!
Each person's ability and domain were different, but the one thing they all had in common was that they were all at the pinnacle of their respective fields—peak of perfection!
On the Universe Grand Hunt, they were showcasing their strength to the fullest!
Even the newly promoted Transcendents, using Yakeli's lip print skin and the Rift Demon Butterfly, were actively fighting on various battlefields, earning points for the human race!
So far, not a single human had been eliminated!
Clearly, reality had given the major Sequences a resounding slap in the face!
The scenario of scattered combat and being picked off one by one hadn't happened. Instead, each person displayed extraordinary combat abilities that amazed the world!
The total points of the human race were skyrocketing wildly. Although still behind the major races, the surge was extremely fierce!
They had been maintaining a position in the top thirty, never falling!
Remember, this was the result of less than four hundred human contestants competing against ten thousand Sequence contestants!
Such an outcome was already quite surprising!
The Sequence Support Groups were stunned!
"Hiss~ I thought Jiang Nan was the only freak among humans, that he alone supported the human race's foundation. But looking at it now, they're ALL freaks! None of these three hundred-plus human representatives are just filling numbers?"
(°ー°〃) "Wait, I take that back. That purple-haired woman who's been sleeping and slacking off since entering—she's probably just making up the numbers. She hasn't gotten a single point and spends most of her time sleeping!"
The eyes of the various Sequence Support Groups could barely keep up!
"When the sun in the sky is dazzling enough, people only notice its radiance and ignore the brilliance of the stars around it!"
"Is it that Jiang Nan is too much of a freak, thus overshadowing the light of other human powerhouses? Come to think of it, back in the Star Ruins War, humans won flawlessly, right?"
The discussion about humans continued unabated. After all, the combat teams were simply too stunning!
They were harvesting points in a crushing manner!
Yang Jian watched this scene with a gratified look, a tingling sensation rushing from his tailbone straight to the back of his head!
Ancestors, are you seeing this?
Even though we started very late, even though we were the last to step onto the starry stage, humans are by no means weak!
Everyone is shining and radiating warmth, carving out a broader world for humanity!
Just as Xiao Chuihuo implied at the opening:
A magnificent human race, a brilliant Blue Star!
Gathered as a flame, scattered as stars everywhere!
Everyone is blooming with their own unique light, illuminating the starry sky for humanity and holding up a piece of the sky!
With these people in the human race, why worry about prosperity?
No matter the outcome of this Sequence War, they must ensure there are no regrets in their hearts!
Now the momentum is good; they just need to maintain it!
But at this moment, the Star Devourers of the Sacred Law Council seated on the Sequence Throne all wore solemn expressions!
Although Jiang Nan was troublesome enough, each race knew in their hearts that they didn't think humans could break into the top ten and enter the center of power in the starry sky just by relying on Jiang Nan's strength!
Because this world isn't about one-on-one fighting; one person alone can't accomplish everything!
But Jiang Nan isn't alone. The human race's growth speed is terrifying—so fast that it gives them a heart-pounding feeling!
Since entering the starry sky, humans are like a school of piranhas at the top of the food chain, released from a fish tank into the ocean!
They recklessly destroy the existing ecological chain, using every available resource to crazily boost themselves!
They were all starving mad inside the tank. Once in the ocean, their instinctive hunger drives them to grow stronger, absorbing all the nutrients they can!
How long have humans been in the starry sky? What kind of scene will it be a hundred years from now?
Noah rested his chin on his hand, smacking his lips: "What a terrifying race. Omnivorous lifeforms, no matter what environment you put them in, will climb to the top of the biological chain at the fastest speed—adapting, utilizing, controlling the environment..."
"Saying they have sovereign-class potential might be an understatement..."
Because humans' performance ever since entering the starry sky has far exceeded mere sovereign-class potential!
No one expected that releasing a group of starving little critters from a fish tank into the ocean would have such an effect!
Noah turned his head to look at Yu Gen, a smile on his lips!
Overlord-class potential, eh? Are you panicking?
Tsk tsk tsk~
