Chapter 786: Big Brother Is So Awesome
Xia Yao stepped forward and kept patting Odin on the shoulder, a satisfied smile on her face!
(｡⁼̴ꇴ⁼̴)ﾉ(•︠～•︡)
"You've got good taste, you know!"
Odin chuckled, and Jiangnan looked on with a mix of emotions.
This guy was a major expert, someone even Piers couldn't beat!
Just a bit scrambled in the head!
But his skills were still there. If he could be Jiangnan's enforcer...
Taking the two cores out of the Abyss wouldn't even be a problem!
"How did you get in here? Do you know how to get out?"
Odin shook his head blankly. "I... I don't remember. Big brother, what's my name?"
Jiangnan said firmly: (･᷅ὢ･᷄) "Your name is Audi!"
"Because your light-element ability is so dazzling, everyone calls you the Audi owner!"
Xia Yao: (⑉ԾกԾ⑉) Pfft～
Xiao Nan, can you be any more mischievous?
Odin: (๑•̌～•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
"My... why is my name so strange?"
Jiangnan rolled his eyes and threw an arm around Odin's shoulder. "Would your big brother lie to you?"
Odin: (๑•̆ࡇ•̆)?
"I trust you, big brother!"
"But I vaguely feel like I'm pretty awesome? I had lots of underlings, respected by thousands. I should be the boss, right?"
"And you look really weak..."
Jiangnan looked guilty for a moment, then glared!
(ꐦಠДಠ): "Rebel, are you? You're awesome, but your big brother is even more awesome!"
"Otherwise, how could I be your big brother? I just look weak—this is called hiding your strength, understand?"
"I don't fight, only because I don't want to! That's called realm!"
"I ran all the way here from thousands of miles to save you when I knew you were in danger, and this is how you repay me?"
Odin shrank his neck and said weakly, "Audi knows big brother is good to me!"
"But... is big brother really that strong?"
Jiangnan said angrily, "You don't believe me? See that Bose beast over there?"
Odin followed Jiangnan's finger and looked. The moment he saw the Bose beast, his pupils contracted sharply!
His face turned pale, his eyes filled with fear. He immediately hid behind Jiangnan, trembling.
|˃᷄﹏˂᷅๑)
"Big brother, I'm scared!"
Xia Yao: =͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇)
A Dao Heaven hiding behind a Platinum saying he's scared?
That's way too incongruous!
Jiangnan chuckled to himself. It seemed Odin had been tormented badly by the Bose giant beast, scared right down to his bones!
With a flick of his wrist, Jiangnan shot out Void Chains, wrapping around both of them. He teleported frantically all the way to the Bose beast's toe!
Odin was shaking like a sieve!
Jiangnan curled his lip: "This giant beast? I can beat it like it's nothing! It doesn't even dare to fight back!"
With that, he raised his fist and punched the Bose giant beast's foot!
Odin: ∑(°口°๑)
"Big brother, how dare you!"
Xia Yao: (｡ŏ﹏ŏ)
Xiao Nan, don't take it too far!
Jiangnan put his hands on his hips: "What's there to fear? Look, does it dare to fight back?"
He punched the beast's foot again!
(yi wei yi‶)٩(๐•̀ㅂ•́)˃᷄﹏˂᷅๑)
"See? It doesn't dare touch me!"
Xia Yao covered her face.
It just doesn't want to bother with you! Stop hitting it!
The Bose giant beast's eyes were already fixed on you!
Odin stammered, "Big brother! You're awesome, awesome, okay?"
Watching you hit it, my heart pounds for some reason!
Jiangnan said angrily, "No! You're just humoring me. You don't truly believe in your heart that big brother is awesome!"
As he spoke, he teleported in one go and landed on the Bose giant beast's toenail!
He pulled out the Blood-Drinking Halberd, aiming at the beast's toenail!
But inside, he was also panicking.
Big guy, don't get mad, okay? I'm just giving you a pedicure, trimming your nail. It's for your own good!
By now, Xia Yao was going crazy: "Jiang the Bold, get down here!"
He's willing to risk his life just to recruit a little brother?
Odin, on the other hand, was so scared he crouched on the ground, hugging his head and trembling.
୧(˃᷄﹏˂᷅)୨
Just as Jiangnan was about to strike, a wave of space rippled, and Jiangning, dressed in a white dress, stepped out of the void!
Seeing the Bose beast before her, her pupils contracted sharply, her face full of shock!
And when she saw Jiangnan raising his halberd to strike, she was dumbfounded!
"Ahh—don't!"
In an instant, her body appeared behind Jiangnan, wrapping her arms around him to stop his motion.
Jiangnan was overjoyed: "Jiangning! You really came!"
Jiangning was frantic: "This is a Creation Beast! Get down!"
She quickly pulled Jiangnan off the Bose giant beast's instep.
As soon as Jiangnan landed, he raised an eyebrow at Odin.
(๑◔~◔ิ): "Now you know your big brother is awesome, right? See? She's so powerful, and she came specially for me!"
Odin swallowed, looking at Jiangning and then at the Bose beast.
"Big brother is awesome!"
Jiangnan nodded contentedly.
Jiangning, however, stared at the Bose giant beast with a grave expression.
Jiangnan asked curiously, "You know this big guy? What is a Creation Beast? Is it also a type of Bose entity?"
Jiangning said solemnly, "It's a very special existence within our race. A sacred beast. All Lingxu were created by Creation Beasts!"
"You can think of it like the divine dragon in your Hua Xia civilization."
At this moment, Jiangnan and Xia Yao were deeply shocked.
Lingxu were really created by Creation Beasts?
All the Lingxu that appeared on Lan Xing were like this?
Then what level of existence did this thing belong to?
Jiangning said doubtfully, "This one is already an adult. Why would it appear in the dimensional gap? That's not right!"
"Its condition is also very abnormal..."
Jiangnan said, "Is it related to the chain stuck in its head?"
Jiangning was startled, her expression serious. "Take me to see!"
Jiangnan shot out Void Chains, wrapping everyone, and teleported all the way to the top of the Creation Beast's head.
At this moment, everyone felt like they were standing on a giant piece of jelly!
Odin was trembling with fear.
They even dared to go on its head? Big brother was indeed as awesome as he said!
Xia Yao also looked like she had discovered a new world. This experience here was too fantastical!
A crystal chain, thick as an adult's arm, extended from the void!
At the end was a crystal spike!
Stuck into the Creation Beast's head!
Jiangnan teleported over in a flash, gently stroking the chain, his eyes bright, saliva almost dripping.
٩(๑¥﹃¥๑٩)
"What material is this? Must be worth a lot of money, right?"
"Who did such a good deed? Sticking a spike in its head? No wonder the big guy keeps shaking its head!"
"Hey, where does this chain extend from? Does it connect to four-dimensional space?"
Jiangnan kept teleporting along the chain, touching this and looking at that, like a curious child.
But as Jiangning looked at the chain, her expression turned extremely ugly.
"Jiangnan, let's go. Listen to me, pretend you never saw this."
"You'd better not get involved in this. It'll bring you big trouble."
Jiangnan paused, his expression becoming unusually serious for once, looking straight into Jiangning's eyes.
"The spiritual energy revival on Lan Xing is related to the Bose entities, right?"
"Whether it's the Creation Beast or the incantation on the core, even I can guess that much, stupid as I am."
Jiangning was silent and didn't answer Jiangnan's question.
Jiangnan continued, "Is the Abyss mutation caused by the Creation Beast?"
"If I pull out this spike, will the mutation disappear?"
Jiangning nodded. "For the current situation, the original sins of the first seven layers of the Abyss were all released by this Creation Beast."
"The mental fluctuations on the eighth and ninth layers are also from it. This spike is tormenting it, forcing it to create Lingxu without rest. It's in great pain..."
Jiangnan understood.
The fact that the eighth and ninth layers appeared together was probably related to this spike too.
Jiangnan didn't know who stuck that spike in,
And he didn't know what their purpose was.
But Jiangnan didn't need to know that much.
None of my business!
The spike is getting in my way? Pull it out and be done with it! Who cares about the rest?
Jiangning stepped forward, cupping Jiangnan's small face with her hands. "I told you, I have no stance. Your stance is my stance."
"Don't interfere, okay? I, Jiangning, would never harm you, no matter what."
Jiangnan grinned. "I know you'd never harm me."
"I, Jiangnan, am just a small-time guy. I can't concern myself with too much. I only care about the people I care about."
"The Abyss mutation has to be eliminated, otherwise the resource layer cores can't be used either."
"And the Abyss will be ruined. Since we've found the source of the problem, we can't just leave it."
Jiangning stomped her foot anxiously. "But this spike..."
Before she could finish, Jiangnan covered her mouth with his hand and grinned.
"You know you can't talk me out of it."
Jiangning smiled bitterly. "You're a stubborn little donkey. I won't bother with you anymore. Whatever happens from now on, we'll face it together."
Of course, she knew what kind of person Jiangnan was. He couldn't be talked out of it. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone back to Area 53 alone to save her back then.
And she wouldn't have left with him.
Jiangnan: (๑¥ヮ¥)
"Mostly, this chain and spike look like they're worth a lot of money. I want to take them."
Jiangning: (≖～≖)
[From Jiangning: Resentment Value +233!]
