The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 113 The Ghost Cathedral (The End)
They want to recruit more believers and summon a new Throat of Unity.

The Throat of Aggregation parasitizes them, and they in turn parasitize the Throat of Aggregation.

This time, the Convergence Throat is not so lucky. With so many parasites, it will take it a long time to "digest" them. If humans have enough time, it will be much easier to eradicate them.

They encountered several parasites on the way, but they dealt with them easily. Su Ninglong had already woken up, her eyelids half-closed with sleepiness.

Seeing Yun Fei's heroic figure as he dealt with the parasite with a single strike, how did Yun become a combat power so quickly?

Was it because he recovered quickly, or was it a well-planned scheme?

No, Song Hu and Ying Gu are also full of energy.

Su Ninglong's dizzy mind recalled that she had just killed the Gathering Throat. The spiritual energy was so dense that even if she passively absorbed it, her lame leg could be healed.

Even Xin Yi's leg was completely healed, and she could run without much of a bump. She was so comfortable that she did nothing and cleared her mind for the time being.

Just as he reached the front courtyard, Yun Fei stopped abruptly. A bullet was aimed at his forehead, hovering in front of him.

Yun Fei turned his head to look, and then a second shot, then a third, seemed to be aimed at killing them.

"Listen up, you people inside! We are Star Police. You are suspected of carrying weapons beyond the bounds of normal law into Youmu Star. Please cease all actions and cooperate with law enforcement. If you refuse, we can forcibly detain you in accordance with Article 28 of the Interstellar Police Law for those who seriously endanger social order..."

"Enough with the nonsense." Yun Fei knew these idiots from Youmu Star wanted to get something for nothing. As long as he insisted that they were illegally possessing unconventional weapons, he wouldn't have to say anything. After a confiscation, the sacred artifact would probably be handed over to them for safekeeping for a while.

This is a disgusting act for any hunter.

The interstellar government's management of local governments on remote planets is still somewhat weak, leading some people to become arrogant and fail to recognize their own capabilities.

However, Yun Fei had a way to deal with it. He contacted Tong Zi and asked her to bring more parasites to help.

"Hahahaha..." Tong Zi almost burst out laughing when he heard that Yun Fei had been tricked by the "natives" again. This was not the first time he had encountered such a situation.

"I'll bring some men to your side."

"What are you laughing at? Haven't you ever encountered this before?"

Since the Star Police have extra firepower, let's give the parasite a baptism.

Yun Fei simply waited, since the cathedral wouldn't collapse anytime soon.

Chu Lin, waiting outside, had a dark expression on his face. He wanted to see how the Star Alliance would manage to escape the siege of Youmu Star's forces after expelling him. He wouldn't plead for them.

The helicopter hovered over the cathedral, whipping up a fierce wind. "The strange power fluctuations below have disappeared. Police officers are in position."

One, two, three...

A line of Star Police officers in combat uniforms landed in the forecourt, guns raised, and reiterated the legality of their actions to those inside the cathedral.

No one answered.

Just when they thought Yun Fei, who was hiding inside the cathedral, was scared, he had already left with the Star Alliance students, while another group of students lured most of the parasites to give the Star Police a little surprise.

This surprise directly led to a change of regime on the planet Youju.

Su Ninglong only found out about it afterward.

But who can say anything about it?

The interstellar government strives to maintain peace, but small local regimes do not desire peace, so the only option is to force "nuclear pacification."

The death melody resounded in the forecourt of the Ghost Cathedral; only by confronting the terrifying mystical appendages could they truly understand the perilous nature of the hunter's mission.

Back at the camp, Su Ninglong was fully energized, but she still sat lazily on the cushion, watching the footage broadcast by the little spider's monitor.

The parasites were like cockroaches that could never be killed, causing great trouble for the star police of Youmu Star. The sniper who was targeting Yun Fei from afar was scratched off a tree by a parasite and unfortunately died from the fall.

"How tragic!" Su Ninglong exclaimed. They were probably just following orders from above and didn't deserve to die.

But the Star Alliance has never interfered with the operation of local governments, so why did they go down a dead end for a little bit of profit?

"Is it cruel?" Because of Ollie's absence, Song Hu was assigned to accompany Su Ninglong and protect this little princess.

"Just treat it like watching a movie." Su Ninglong had seen dead people before, and even more cruel ones. The deaths of a few people from local organizations wouldn't shake her resolve.

The situation in the vestibule is actually not bad; there are a few hunters from the planet Youju helping out.

She absentmindedly stroked Qirui's fur, not noticing Song Hu's hesitant words.

Song Hu wanted to get closer to people, but he rarely initiated conversations and didn't know how to start.

Unlike the ease he felt communicating with Lian Xinyi, he felt pressured around Su Ninglong.

Those clear, childlike eyes seemed to see right through people's hearts. After all, his reason for approaching her wasn't simple; he wanted to get to know the person behind Su Ninglong.

After a long silence, Su Ninglong sensed spatial fluctuations around her and immediately got up. The next moment, a large red dog pounced out.

"Oli!" Su Ninglong hugged it with delight.

Ollie spat out the pyramid instrument from his mouth and wagged his tail proudly.

Seeing the glittering instruments rolling at her feet, Su Ninglong was almost moved to tears. The world was in ruins, and the little dog was patching things up. When she met a thoughtful dog like Ollie, even Su Ninglong couldn't help but be touched.

"Are you injured?"

Ollie turned around and then turned his belly up to show her that he was safe and sound.

Qirui, standing to the side, raised its paw and curiously pawed at it, rolling it around like a toy. What is this thing?
Su Ninglong rescued the pyramid instrument from Qi Rui's clutches. He hadn't had time to examine it closely after getting his hands on it, so he decided to take a look at it himself before handing it over.

Song Hu remained silent, and everyone else was busy, so no one noticed that Ollie had quietly returned.

Xingyuan and Lei Qingya are Su Ninglong's people, so she wouldn't mention them.

Su Ninglong fiddled with the pyramid instruments. The pyramid was divided into three layers, each engraved with text.

Every line under the delicate fingertip resembles an array or talisman, imbued with power.

She had seen similar inscriptions on the "restored" True Self Mirror. It must be a sacred artifact. She didn't know whether it was unearthed or made in modern times.

At the moment, Su Ninglong didn't want to cause them any trouble, and with everyone watching, she couldn't keep the item to herself.

After taking pictures and recording videos of the pyramid-shaped instruments, Su Ninglong asked Song Hu to call Funi over.

Funi was most interested in these mysterious things, and she was overjoyed as she held the instrument, exclaiming, "Ninglong, my darling, you're amazing! Where did you get this?"

"It's not that I'm good, it's that Ollie is good."

"Oh, dear Ollie, what do you want when we get back? I'll do everything I can to get it for you."

Ollie wagged its tail, tilted its head, and looked adorable; it didn't even know what it wanted.

"Teacher Funi, we, the dog and I, have done our part, even if we didn't achieve anything. After studying this sacred artifact, could you tell us how it works?" In the cathedral, the divination board was called a "divine artifact" by those people, and its importance was self-evident.

The fact that Funi could manage the divination board is enough to prove her professionalism and status within the Star Alliance Academy.

Seeing Funi's thoughtful expression, Su Ninglong knew there was something going on.

After a while, Funi blinked her big eyes and whispered, "I'll give you new homework later."

"Yes, I love doing homework the most," Su Ninglong said shamelessly.

"The assignment will include information about that beautiful beastly figure, so remember to prepare it in advance."

"Okay, okay." Su Ninglong readily agreed, "Even if I tell you, you still won't be able to summon it."

Old Ancestor Su was so confident that if Bai Ze were so easy to summon, she wouldn't have needed to use "good luck" and her own soul power.

Unlike Su Ninglong and the others who were relaxing, Yun Fei and Tong Zi had been busy all night and needed to make thorough arrangements for their retreat.

We need to give the regime of Youmuxing a way out, while also exerting appropriate deterrence to keep all the forces of Youmuxing more obedient.

After not grooming himself for a day and a night, Yun Fei's chin was covered in stubble.

I was woken up early this morning by a weathered-looking uncle who said it was time to go down the mountain.

Su Ninglong couldn't keep her eyelids open, so Lei Qingya had to carry her on his back.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, we arrived back at the Pink Sea beach. It was low tide, and the pink stones, which are usually submerged underwater, stretched for more than ten kilometers and could not be seen at all.

The starship that brought us here is already docked on the beach, and tourists are rushing over to take photos with it. Such an "advanced" and beautiful starship is a rare sight on Youju Star.

Some people never leave the planet Youju in their entire lives, let alone see a starship up close.

More than ten people dressed in military combat uniforms lined up in a column and saluted Yun Fei and the others in unison. Yun Fei and the people behind him immediately returned the salute.

After the greetings were completed, Tong Zi stepped forward on behalf of Yun Fei, saying, "Thank you, Lieutenant General Ji, for making the trip."

"Protecting interstellar peace is our duty." General Ji's gaze swept across Tong Zi's face, seemingly pleased to see her, and he seemed reluctant to part with her when shaking her hand.

“This uncle likes Teacher Tong,” Su Ninglong said confidently.

"Stop worrying about the adults' love affairs." Xingyuan tapped her forehead.

A child's voice is hard to miss.

Su Ninglong was hiding at the back of the group, but General Ji still heard her muttering and his sharp eyes caught her presence.

"Taking care of children on a mission?"

"Yes, her abilities are a bit special, and she's been a great help to us," Tong Zi said casually, then asked when they could board the ship and depart.

"There are still some matters to be handed over with the government here. It will take about two hours. Since this is a tourist attraction, you can rest for a while."

Civilized people speak in a pleasant way; they refer to beating someone as "handing over" or "beating someone up."

Su Ninglong was quite curious about the interstellar military system. The cultivation world had no army; when fighting, they relied entirely on internal sect teams like the Punishment Hall, Discipline Hall, and Great Array Division—teams that sounded incredibly murderous.

StarCraft, on the other hand, is called a peacekeeping force—a weak and unappealing name that sends shivers down the spines of many.

"Teacher Yun, you promised to pick up a truckload of stones for me, you can't go back on your word."

Yun Fei: "..." How could she remember these things so clearly?

Ji Zhongjiang gave her an approving look.

So the students and teachers in the inner courtyard, who were so tired they wanted to collapse, had no choice but to bury their heads in picking up stones for their little darling.

"It must be all pink, a single color, no other colors."

"Don't even think about fooling me. This is terrible. Not even a whole basket of this is acceptable. I need the solid color."

"Don't take anything too small either."

Ji Zhongjiang pulled Tong Zi aside to chat, and they stood on a large rock gazing at the pink sea.

He asked in a businesslike tone, "That child is an important member of the Star Alliance's new generation."

"We are the main combat personnel, not good at strategy. Don't ask me questions I can't answer." Tong Zi distanced himself, indicating that he was not involved in the Star Alliance's miscellaneous affairs, and then gently changed the subject, "You've always wanted a legitimate reason to attack Youmu Star, and now that you've gotten your wish, just don't forget our kindness. In the future, if you come across these colorful and pure stones, help dig some up and give them to that child. Just give them to her."

Why repay the debt of gratitude instead of giving it to the Star Alliance, but to a child?
Is Tong Zi reminding us of something? Could there be changes within the Star Alliance?

Ji Zhong quickly replied, "Okay, if I'm busy, I'll take a picture and let you know where you are."

"It's the best."

As they collected stones, thunder rumbled incessantly from the horizon, and the sky gradually darkened.

More than an hour later, a light rain began to fall, the rainwater carrying the salty smell of the sea. All the crew members returned to the ship, while Su Ninglong's truckload of pink stones was almost finished.

Suninglong lamented, "If only it could fit two trucks."

The students in the inner courtyard slumped in their seats, looking at Su Ninglong as if they had seen a great demon.

Compared to the distance between others, Xin Yi and Song Hu were much more affectionate.

They sat behind Su Ninglong, adjusted their seats so they were facing each other, and Song Hu made Su Ninglong a warm cup of milk tea.

Su Ninglong took a sip, her eyes lighting up. "This is delicious."

The tea has a subtle fragrance that slides down the tongue and throat, leaving a sweet fruity aftertaste in the mouth.

Even Xin Yi wanted to drink it, so Song Hu had no choice but to make him a cup as well.

"Is this the first-harvest tea from Wuguo Tea Garden on Kaibi Star?" Lei Qingya took a sip and almost knew where it came from. She wasn't too particular about tea, but her father loved it.

Lei Qingya's deepest impression is of this tea, which her father treasures very much.

"First-harvest tea selling for over 100,000 Star Coins per kilogram?"

"I didn't expect you all to have tasted it." Song Hu said without any attempt to hide it. "I wanted to make friends with you, so I brought out what I consider to be my most precious treasure to share. If you don't like this way of interacting, I can find another way."

Xingyuan rubbed his fingertips against the cup, his eyes hazy, seemingly lost in thought.

“I really like it. Make me more to drink. I’d like to be your friend.” Su Ninglong nodded in agreement with Song Hu’s approach like a chick pecking at rice. Since sincerity is the most important thing in making friends, it’s no problem to treat him as an ordinary friend since his sincerity is so valuable.

Song Hu comes from a well-off family and has the air of a noble young master, but he is a man of few words and is better at listening quietly to others. However, he can talk more about art.

"Does anyone in your family have an art background?"

Xingyuan's question drew out Song Hu's hidden thoughts. "I study art appreciation. You may not know that there is such a course because it is purely a personal hobby. For example, I can tell that your earrings are all made by the same person. Although they are different styles, I can see that they have strong personal characteristics."
