My citizenship is at risk

Chapter 213: The Third Transformation of Red Eyes, Entering the Abyss Again (4k)

In a training room filled with thick fog, Chu Mu, who was sitting cross-legged on a cushion, slowly opened his eyes. A flash of bright blue light flashed in his eyes, making the training room dark for a moment.

"Using the source-devouring technique, the maximum speed of cultivation that the meridians can withstand has increased by more than 30% compared to before."

He exhaled lightly, feeling the source of energy in his sea of ​​​​qi becoming full again. The powerful feeling made Chu Mu have an urge to roar to the sky.

Three days have passed since the source blood was upgraded to the fourth level. During these three days, Chu Mu exchanged several cosmic treasures and then plunged into the C9 level training room.

After three days, the amount of source power in Chu Mu's body has climbed to as many as 110. This is not the source power of the first level. The source power of the second level is more condensed, and each one is comparable to the previous two.

"I can feel that the third stage of transparent vision is already enough to be opened with my current source of power." Chu Mu murmured, with anticipation emerging uncontrollably in his eyes.

This is also his first source skill to open the third stage.

In the Qi Sea, the surging source power surged up like a backward waterfall from the sky, pouring violently into the red starlight above the Qi Sea.

The red starlight became brighter and stronger. After absorbing a hundred source powers, it burst out with astonishing brilliance.

Chu Mu's eyes turned from dark brown to scarlet red in an instant. Everything around him slowed down at this moment. The surging energy clouds gradually became still. The timer on the wall froze at a certain second and took a long time to enter the next second.

This is…

Time stands still?

No, that's not right.

If it was the ability to stop time, he himself should not be affected, but now he himself is unable to move.

What's more, the third-level source skill may not be able to touch the concept of time.

It was not that time stopped, but that his thinking was accelerated to an unimaginable speed at this moment.

Everything around him was within his insight, and his abilities of the first and second turns were still retained.

He can stay in this state for as long as he wants.

In some extremely critical situations where it is difficult to respond in time, using this source skill can allow Chu Mu to gain more time to think and simulate, and obtain the most perfect response method.

Chu Mu was delighted when he realized the value of this source skill.

This ability can only be activated once with one hundred source powers, and it is destined to be his last resort at this moment.

Hole card +1.

As Chu Mu's mind moved, everything around him instantly returned to normal, just like pressing the pause button on a picture and then pressing the play button again.

Chu Mu stood up from the mat, walked quickly to the door of the practice room, and quickly opened the door a small gap, revealing Xu Yuncan who was staring outside the door.

“…No wonder you asked me not to use the training room for now.” After only a cursory glance at the scene in the training room, Xu Yuncan realized Chu Mu’s intention, and hurried into the training room, fearing that if the door was left open for too long, the extremely rich cosmic energy inside would escape.

"Okay, my time is up." Chu Mu smiled and patted Xu Yuncan on the shoulder, "I'll leave first."

"Wait a minute." Xu Yuncan called Chu Mu, "I'll send you a document with a detailed analysis of the various training venues in the camp."

"There are some training contents in it, which should be suitable for you."

Chu Mu made a "received" gesture and turned to leave.

After the door of the training room was closed again, Xu Yuncan stared at the door for a long time before turning around, walking towards the cushion and sitting cross-legged.

After all, his strength is still the weak link in the team. He is good at some things that require brainpower, but when it comes to fighting, he may hold his teammates back. In the previous operation to wipe out the Evil Blood Cult, he basically did not put in much effort.

This is not what he wants.

Closing his eyes, Xu Yuncan quickly began to practice with the help of the extremely rich cosmic energy here.

On the other side, Chu Mu received the information sent by Xu Yuncan, flipped through it briefly, and showed a surprised expression.

This information should have been compiled by Xu Yuncan himself. It clearly states what training each training venue is suitable for and what training plans are recommended. It is obvious that Xu Yuncan obtained first-hand information by consulting the instructors in the camps.

Xu Yuncan took the initiative to copy the information to him, probably to thank him for providing the practice room.

This guy…

Chu Mu shook his head and laughed, then walked straight towards the dormitory.

Although the training plan was good, he had just gone through three days of practice and now just wanted to have a good rest and adjust himself.

And judging by the time, the beast soldiers from Xingyuan should be arriving at the valley soon.

This time, he's going to do something big.
-
In the star abyss.

Different roars intertwined together, and star beasts of different shapes and sizes crawled on the ground in the same direction.

Some of them are tens of meters long, while some are stronger, exceeding a hundred meters in length. But no matter their size, they all appear weak in front of the sixth-level mantis beast.

Chu Mu calmly looked at the beast soldiers gathered in front of him.

These beast soldiers were clearly divided into two areas, the beast soldiers on the left each carried a Hela offspring, these were the newbies who had officially become Mantis Country's beast soldiers, the star beasts on the right did not carry any Hela offspring, these were the ones that Rookie Dog had recently captured.

After some physical deterrence and spiritual persuasion, they have been filled with heartfelt respect for the mantis beast and the mantis kingdom.

The number of these star beasts reached 80. Including the previous beast soldiers, the number of beast soldiers of the Mantis Kingdom exceeded two hundred.

However, before officially arranging the task, there is one very important thing to do.

Chu Mu looked calmly at Hela beside him. Hela twisted her body, her eyes showing anticipation.

It carefully took out the blue crystal that had been given to it, swallowed it in one gulp, and then let out a sharp hiss.

All the Hela offspring present crawled towards it and were actively devoured by the madly evolving Hela.

After accumulating for such a long time, it is finally about to start moving towards the fifth level of beast soldier grade.

Recalling all the sub-bodies and splitting them again after they have been upgraded is to allow the sub-bodies to also gain new abilities after the upgrade.

Zampa and Semiya, who were standing in the corner watching this scene, looked at each other.

"It seems that what the star beast named Hela swallowed just now was the Extreme Origin Blue Crystal?" Semia asked uncertainly.

"That's it." Zampa nodded slightly, "This should be the decoy that caused the medium-sized wormhole to open a few days ago."

"I don't know how big the Extreme Origin Blue Crystal was at that time." Semia showed a look of desire, "This is a good thing."

"Don't even think about it." Zampa calmed down a little, "At this stage, the mantis beast will not share this kind of resources with us."

"It's those more common resources..." Zampa looked to the other side, where there were various resources piled up into a small hill. They were all collected by the beast soldiers during this period and they took this opportunity to offer them as tribute.

If they could obtain all the resources they needed through the Mantis Beast, that would be good news. It seemed that he needed to find an opportunity to talk to the Mantis Beast again.

Chu Mu didn't care about the secret communication between Zanpa and the other person. Since that conversation, he never took the initiative to look for the other party.

At this moment, his attention was all on Hela.

I don’t know what new abilities Hela can acquire. As the most powerful means of communication in Mantis Country, Hela’s abilities are of great importance.

Time passed minute by minute. Hela, who was over 300 meters long, twisted her body. Her body was covered with countless eyes, which was very unfriendly to people with trypophobia.

Having just completed its evolution, it pounced on the pile of star beast flesh and blood that had been prepared long ago without hesitation and devoured it quickly. Every time it devoured a bit, a single-eyed Hela sub-body would split out of itself.

Soon, hundreds of offspring appeared on the ground.

Chu Mu took a look and quickly discovered the difference between these fonts and the previous Hela fonts.

They are no longer in a form similar to Hela, but look like small balls of flesh, each with an eye.

One of the fleshy balls rolled and quickly came towards Chu Mu. Under Chu Mu's surprised gaze, the fleshy ball instantly merged into the mantis's body the moment it touched it. Only one eye was left, as if it had grown out of the mantis's body.

The eye blinked at the mantis with a bit of mischief, which made Chu Mu feel a little strange.

no…

Why is Hela's evolution becoming more and more powerful?
As soon as this thought came to mind, the eye slowly closed, creating ripples on the surface of the mantis's body like water waves, and finally disappeared completely, as if it had never existed.

Even Chu Mu didn't feel anything unusual.

This ability…

Chu Mu was shocked.

The previous Hela sub-body could be reduced to a minimum size of about one meter, but it was still a bit cumbersome. If the star beast itself was not huge in size, it would probably be quite inconvenient to carry.

But now, Hela's offspring can directly merge with other star beasts, like parasites, and can even hide.

Then what Hela can do is not just as simple as transmitting messages, it can even eavesdrop!
"My new ability after the advancement is sub-body specialization. Now I can differentiate into two different sub-bodies."

"One is a spherical sub-body that is specifically used to transmit information. It has strong concealment, but cannot develop and grow. The other is an ordinary sub-body. Like the previous one, it can grow on its own."

Specialized spherical daughter...

Chu Mu showed a delighted expression.

Hela's ability can be said to be a great help to the Mantis Kingdom today!
The other spherical bodies rolled quickly towards the beast soldiers. Soon, each beast soldier had an extra eye on his body, which closed and then quickly disappeared.

Zampa and the other man who were watching saw the two meat balls rolling towards them, smiled bitterly and shook their heads, then took the initiative to step forward.

Soon, all the people and star beasts present merged with the Hela sub-body.

Chu Mu glanced at the entire audience, and then spoke in a deep voice.

"Two things."

The beast soldiers, who were originally somewhat unfocused, straightened up one by one, became alert, and listened to Chu Mu's words with the most respectful attitude.

"First of all, the Mantis Nation now has 200 beast soldiers. This time, eight decurion commanders will be promoted from the ordinary beast soldiers, and one centurion commander will be promoted from the current 12 decurion commanders."

"Our beast soldiers will have a more refined division of labor, from scattered groups to two beast corps for reconnaissance and combat."

"Scout Corps, led by Beast Soldier No. 37!"

As Chu Mu finished speaking, Beast Soldier No. 37 flapped its wings and let out an excited neigh.

Although it is still the centurion of the Mantis Kingdom, it is now the commander of the reconnaissance corps, which sounds very impressive.

It seems that there are more important tasks to be assigned to me!
Of the twelve beast soldiers who had previously been awarded the title of centurions, except for beast soldier No. 61 who did not join the group this time, the other eleven showed eager looks at the same time.

Chu Mu took the centurion's look in his eyes and spoke slowly.

"Combat Corps has higher requirements for strength."

"You eleven centurions fight among yourselves, but you are not allowed to kill your opponent. The strongest one is the second centurion of Mantis Country!"

Eleven beast soldiers at the centurion level showed ferocious eyes at the same time, and fought each other amidst the roar of the vegetable dog.

The melee soon ended with the victory of Beast Soldier No. 74, a star beast shaped like a lizard, with six huge claws and sharp bone spurs all over its body. It charged with unstoppable force, and even other star beasts at the same level as it could hardly resist its power.

Chu Mu looked at Beast Soldier No. 74 with admiration and immediately announced that it was the second centurion of the Mantis State.

Then, amid the roars and cheers of the beast soldiers, Chu Mu divided the beast soldiers into two beast corps, reconnaissance and combat, according to their respective strengths.

After doing all this, Chu Mu's eyes became serious.

As if sensing the unusual atmosphere around them, the agitated star beasts quickly quieted down, each pair of eyes looking towards the mantis beast.

Now that the first thing is said, it is time to move on to the second thing.

I don’t know what the second thing will be.

"The second thing is that the cosmic treasure in this valley has matured. Next, I will take you out of this valley and go to a mysterious place."

mysterious place?
Hearing this, Zampa and Semiya looked at each other and couldn't help but reveal strange expressions.

What kind of place would be called a mysterious place by a mantis?
Could this place be related to the many unusual features displayed by the mantis?

Mantis, will you allow the two of them to enter?

Before they could continue to imagine, Chu Mu's thoughts had already passed through the Hela sub-body and resounded in their minds.

"Since the Divine Mysterious Star Alliance is interested in the origin of the star beasts, I will take you to the origin of the star beasts now."

"As long as you sincerely submit to me, the information about Xingyuan that I was able to collect before will only be more in the future."

Zampa and Semiya both looked surprised.

The mysterious place actually refers to the origin of the star beasts? !

It is rumored that there are many such places in the Star Abyss, but they are hidden very deeply, and only a few star beasts know their exact locations.

Although the two saw the requirements on the token, they didn't think they would be able to find such a place in a short period of time.

Unexpectedly, the mantis beast actually knew about it and wanted to take them with him!
