Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1738 Sudden Pride (Second Update)

Xia Chujian still remembers that time when 100,000 snipers, under Huo Yushen's command, acted as one, clearing a path for Xia Chujian in the starry sky and breaking through the insectoid army.

This time, there were only three of them, but they still had the momentum of a thousand troops!
The moment Xia Chujian activated the phase array, the hearts of the three people beat almost simultaneously.

That's the result of their biological rhythms being forcibly synchronized by the sniper network.

Xia Chujian continued to issue commands through the mecha's communication system.

"Destroyer Plasma Sniper Rifle, clear the path."

"Sniper network activated, loading biofield marking mode."

"Target: The aggregated flesh outside the Abyss Cave."

In the mecha's communication channel, Xia Chujian's voice was hoarse yet clear, carrying a sharp, desperate edge.

The three snipers' energy instantly focused on Xia Chujian.

Xia Xiong and Xia Yu both closed their eyes, entrusting all their abilities and mental strength to the sniper network.

In Xia Chujian's vision, the cold blue marker light, like the longbow of death, locked onto the most violent part of the fleshy creature's body.

Xia Chujian didn't know if that was the energy core of this fleshy creation, but she decided to shoot it anyway.

If it doesn't work, try playing in another location.

On the battlefield, this approach often comes with unknown costs.

It's very likely that it will be a matter of either succeeding or dying for the cause.

But they have no other choice now.

Xia Chujian's voice rang out in the mecha's communication system.

"All right."

Xia Chujian felt a heavy, cold touch on her shoulder.

Her plasma sniper rifle had been switched to a miniature sniper railgun and was silently deploying its support.

The heavy cannon structure unfolded along the spine of Xia Chujian's mecha, and the complex and precise energy rings lit up one by one with a golden-purple light.

The mech's shoulder armor bulged with spike-like protrusions, protruding from the miniature sniper railgun and embedding themselves firmly into the spinal launcher at the rear of the mech.

Through the scope of the sniper railgun, Xia Chujian could clearly see every movement of the fleshy creature, even the trembling of every microorganism in the mucus, all vividly and clearly in Xia Chujian's consciousness.

Xia Chujian found this visual effect somewhat peculiar.

This was a phenomenon she had never noticed when using the single-person sniper system.

Soon, the mech sniper system reported: Target locked.

The fleshy creature that had just crawled out of the hole on the right side of the altar, resembling a rotting sea anemone, was now firmly caught in Xia Chujian's field of vision by the scarlet crosshair.

With its rhythmic rise and fall, the peak energy accumulated by the sniper system is about to arrive.

Xia Chujian's breathing stopped for a moment.

The blood seemed to freeze; the only real sensation felt by the mechanical fingers resting on the sniper railgun's firing button was the touch.

emission.

There was no deafening roar.

The moment the sniper network opened fire, there was only an extreme "silence," like a soundproof cage descending from the sky and enveloping everything.

An indescribable golden-purple beam of light, existing between existence and nothingness, with a diameter of almost twenty centimeters, instantly tore apart the space between Xia Chujian and the fleshy creation.

Wherever the beam of light passed, space itself seemed to collapse slightly inward.

In the blink of an eye, at the end of the golden-purple beam, at the point where the locked chunk of flesh had the most concentrated energy, along with the viscous substance surrounding it, there was no explosion, no splashing.

It simply vanished into thin air.

Like a bad chalk drawing on a blackboard, vigorously erased by an eraser, leaving only a rough-edged void.

Even the sound was completely stripped away; nothing remained, and there was no way to prove that anything had ever existed there.

Everything that just happened was their illusion.

Xia Xiong and Xia Yu opened their eyes.

Looking at the altar, which was half empty and only contained half a fleshy creation, I felt a little out of place.

They felt something was wrong because so many strange and unusual things were missing.

Xia Xiong strained to speak: "Lieutenant General Xia, did we succeed?"

success?

Xia Chujian didn't know.

She simply continued to stare warily at the hole in the altar.

Yes, although that shot not only destroyed the new lump of flesh that crawled out of the hole in the center of the flesh-shaped creation on the right side of the altar, but also caused the original flesh-shaped creation to vanish into thin air.

However, that hole, that hole that clearly appeared from the original fleshy creation on the right, still lingers above the altar!
Without the support of the flesh-based creation, it was as if someone had punched a hole in the air, as if the final curtain of the warp had finally been torn open, revealing a hideous corner.

Immediately afterwards, a dying, deafening roar erupted from the "Abyss Cave" that was suspended in mid-air!

All the floating clumps of flesh and blood in that cave were convulsing, rolling, and struggling wildly, as if they had been thrown into a high-temperature scorching environment!
The buzzing they emitted suddenly rose in pitch, like the dying screams of millions of creatures, directly impacting the nerves of Xia Chujian, Xia Xiong, and Xia Yu.

An invisible mental storm swept in, carrying with it unspeakable fear, pain, and an incomprehensible, impotent rage.

This time, the mental attack penetrated the energy barrier of the second-generation mecha and crashed deep into the consciousness of the three people.

Xia Xiong and Xia Yu were only spared immediate annihilation because they were ingesting Crimson Flame Dew. However, they could only clutch their heads, roll on the ground, and let out heart-wrenching roars to alleviate some of the excruciating pain.

Xia Chujian also felt a sharp pain in her head, as if someone was pulling her hair and hitting her head with a brick.

My vision was completely flooded by dark green and bluish-purple light spots, and my ears were filled with a continuous, high-frequency shrill sound.

A strong metallic taste rose in his throat, and blood seeped from his clenched teeth.

Xia Chujian gripped the barrel of the miniature sniper railgun tightly, her fingertips scraping against the metal with a piercing sound, barely managing to keep her consciousness from being overwhelmed by this sudden mental tsunami.

At this moment, although she had a terrible headache, she also felt a little happy.

Because she finally knew what a mental attack looked like!

Moreover, as the waves of pain pounded into her brain, she suddenly realized something was wrong.

When that sudden, excruciating pain touched a certain part of her brain, it was suddenly sucked in...

Xia Chujian: "..."

Can pain be absorbed?
She murmured it out unconsciously.

On her eyepiece display screen, Qilu's mischievous doodle font quickly appeared.

【Seven Blessings】: Master, pain is also a form of energy that can be absorbed.

Xia Chujian tapped the fully enclosed helmet three times and whispered, "Qi Lu, what kind of energy is pain?"

"The energy from that mental attack that gave me brain pain?"

Qilu said, "That's right, Master! The energy of pain comes from external forces."

"The pain in your brain right now is the energy from the direct attack of Ursus's mental power."

“Master, Ursus may have already identified you as the one He truly wants to deal with.”

"Because Qi Lu detected the mental attack that Ursus had launched, and it wasn't aimed at Xia Xiong and Xia Yu at all."

"He is only targeting you."

"Xia Xiong and Xia Yu were only affected by a tiny bit of residual spiritual energy radiated into the air."

"If they had been subjected to the same mental attack as you, they would have been torn to pieces and become food for Ursus long ago."

Xia Chujian: "..."

It turns out that Ursus has a good eye for quality!
Why am I suddenly feeling a little proud?!
She pondered this to herself, then her spirits lifted, and she suddenly exclaimed, "Huh? If I absorb the energy from His mental attack, will He be unable to recycle all the energy and regenerate his flesh?"

Qi Lu paused, as if he had run into a knot, and after a while, he said with some difficulty, "Theoretically, that's how it is... but..."

I don't know how to explain the rest.

At the beginning of summer, my thoughts raced.

She could sense that the place that could absorb the energy of mental attacks was somewhere on the back of her head.

Because that mental attack suddenly vanished without a trace, right there at the back of her head.

Her head no longer hurt.

To confirm that her feeling was correct, Xia Chujian shook her head.

That way, even if water gets in, you can get it out and prove it's not your hallucination.

Just as she was feeling happy, Qi Lu's voice suddenly rang out again in her fully enclosed helmet, tinged with disbelief and confusion.

"Master! The biofield readings in that 'Abyss Cave' are rising erratically! It's... enraged!"

Xia Chujian: "...Anger? What right does He have to be angry?"

"Because I absorbed His energy? So He can no longer play His perpetual motion game?"

Xia Chujian's mind was working exceptionally fast at this moment.

She suddenly said, "...That's not right..."

“Since this entire city is a point in time that He chose, then even if I absorb His energy, it will still be conserved.”

"Because I am still within His timeline, His energy has not overflowed into the outside world, so why can't He reorganize?"

Qi Lu could not answer and could only remain silent.

This phenomenon has nearly caused its processor to crash.

Xia Chujian gazed silently at the "Abyss Cave" that appeared out of thin air.

That place was like a vast, fleshy ruin.

The space inside looked like it was filled with a layer of mucus, or like jelly, and was violently trembling, twisting, and fluctuating.

An "existence" whose form cannot be accurately described in words is slowly emerging from that "abyss."

It has no fixed shape; it is more like a soft, sticky, and ever-changing nebula made of pure flesh and blood.

Crimson, deep blue, dark green, dark purple, black...

Various colors spun wildly there, merging and separating.

Countless tiny, illusory figures, resembling embryonic embryos or fragments of organs, flickered within the "abyss cave."

Life and death are unfolding simultaneously at a speed billions of times faster.

　There will be a new update at 12:05 AM.
