Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Meteor Tear

Chapter 50 Sweeping Away the Ruins

Zhou Yang, a student in the elite training camp, has broken through to a level surpassing the God of War and is about to take up the position of the sixth inspector of the Limit Martial Arts Academy.

This short message spread like wildfire to every corner of the earth.

In an instant, all the major and minor powers, including the five great nations of humanity, were in an uproar!

They were shocked not only by the fact that the Limit Martial Arts Academy had gained another inspector, but also by Zhou Yang's breakthrough itself.

After all, he's still so young!

If everyone remembers correctly, he has just turned 19!

A 19-year-old councilor-level powerhouse? That's ridiculously young!

Who can guarantee that such a young powerhouse won't become another Hong or Lei Shen in the future?

"Make sure to cultivate a good relationship with this week's inspector!"

"Councilor Jia, please make the trip yourself to convey our goodwill."

Various forces, including the five major human powers, quickly issued a series of orders.

"Oh, right, Inspector Zhou is so young and not married yet. Go and call all the eligible children in his family. I want to personally take them to Inspector Zhou's inauguration ceremony!"

Some people even came up with the idea of ​​making connections indirectly, directly contacting Zhou Yang's parents.

"Hello Brother Zhou, I'm Old Wang from the north. I heard your child is still single?"

"Oh, what a coincidence! I'm single too—I mean, my daughter is single too. How about we introduce them?"

"Sister Wang, your skin is so well-maintained!"

"Girl, come and call her Aunt Wang. Whether you can start calling her 'Mom' depends on your own ability."

For a whole week, not only Zhou Yang himself, but also his father Zhou Yong and mother Wang Shumei were bombarded with messages.

Many people, whether they knew each other or not, came to visit enthusiastically, and everyone was so kind that the family felt embarrassed to get angry.

Not to mention the various gifts these people brought, there were at least dozens of young women brought to his home.

In the end, even his mother, Wang Shumei, couldn't stand the spectacle and was directly turned against him.

"Yangyang, look at those girls, why don't you pick one? You're not getting any younger."

"Oh dear, Mom, stop talking now. Did you leak my new number again? I've got over a dozen missed calls already."

"Um, I think that young lady from the Li family is quite pleasing to the eye."

"I'm hanging up now, Mom. I'm turning off my phone."

This unpleasant situation lasted for almost a week.

Finally, May 25th arrived.

After finishing the inauguration ceremony prepared for him by the Extreme Martial Arts Academy, Zhou Yang immediately shut down all communication devices and plunged into the endless wilderness.

In the wilderness, Zhou Yang's figure streaked across the sky like a streak of light.

"Babata, how's Luo Feng's Soul Imprint practice going lately? Has he even gotten the hang of it?"

During the flight, Zhou Yang quickly communicated with Babata in his mind.

"How could it be so fast!"

Upon hearing this, Babata instantly flew into a rage.

"Zhou Yang, I say, aren't you underestimating the Soul Imprint Secret Technique? That's the most core secret technique of our Meteorite Star lineage!"

"Do you think everyone is like you, with a teacher helping them refine their inherited soul imprint?"

"I was just asking, why are you getting so worked up?"

Zhou Yang smiled helplessly and casually added:

"You'd better urge Luo Feng to master this Soul Imprint Secret Technique as soon as possible; you might need it later!"

"I know, you've said it countless times."

Babata muttered impatiently:

"I'll hold this kid back for now, preventing him from using the Wood Sprout Crystal to break through. He's only at the apprentice level now, so his total mental energy is low, and the conversion speed into the unique mental energy of the Meteorite Star lineage will be faster."

"Yes, you have foresight."

Zhou Yang's small act of flattery greatly improved the mood of the little devil who looked like a child in black robes.

Then Zhou Yang asked again:

"By the way, how's the arrangement for monitoring those marine creatures going?"

Upon his return from the Australian continent, he reminded Babata to help monitor the movements in the endless ocean.

If he remembered correctly, the Golden Horned Beast first appeared in the endless ocean.

If we can find the Golden Horned Beast in its early stages of hatching, it will be much easier to capture or possess it.

Of course, he didn't mention the Golden Horned Beast for the time being, but only said that we should be wary of the two Beast Kings in the ocean.

Babata didn't think much of it and readily agreed.

"It's in progress. I've finished processing the first batch of nanosensor robots in the past few days, and they're being deployed into the ocean in batches. I estimate they'll be distributed to various parts of the ocean soon."

Once they are deployed, they will be able to easily monitor all life forms above the planetary level in the ocean.

"Reliable!"

Zhou Yang gave him another thumbs up.

He chatted casually with Babata in his mind while steer the curved blade disk forward at high speed.

Soon, his figure landed in a secluded mountain hollow.

As Zhou manipulated the curved blade to cut rapidly, the hillside on one side of the valley was easily crushed like tofu.

"Rumble~~~"

Large boulders continued to tumble down, and dust filled the air.

As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, a patch of silver-gray warship wreckage came into his view.

"Babata, scan and see if there's anything usable."

"knew!"

Babata responded, and an invisible wave quickly emanated from the smart wristband on Zhou Yang's left hand.

Not long after, Babata's voice rang out.

"This should be a reconnaissance ship from a small space fleet, but it's so badly damaged that it's only half intact. I doubt there'll be much usable material left."

Babata spoke with a disdainful tone.

"Most of the valuable relics on this earth have long been looted by your various human powers."

Based on my analysis, I estimate that only ruins number 1 and 12 of the three forbidden areas you mentioned might yield some rewards.

"Remains No. 1 and No. 12."

Zhou Yang quickly matched the names to the list of ruins in his mind.

The No. 1 relic is shaped like a huge silver pyramid, which should be the mechanical race spaceship located in the Bermuda Triangle as described in the original work.

The mechanical race's spaceship was intact, and its level had even reached E-rank, making it a precious item in the eyes of a group of immortal-level powerhouses.

Unfortunately, his current strength is too low, and he is not yet able to break through the spaceship's protection system to enter.

Besides, even if he could actually get his hands on it now, he wouldn't dare to use it openly.

Imagine what would happen if a planetary-level nobody with no background revealed that he had a mechanical ship of level E.

He'd probably be murdered and robbed any minute now!

As for the No. 12 ruins, he remembered that there seemed to be a complete X81 Black Dragon Mountain spaceship inside.

However, the spaceship was programmed with a self-destruct mechanism, which would trigger a self-destruction if it were hacked.

In the original story, Babata destroyed the Black Dragon Mountain spaceship's intelligent system by overwhelming it with a massive data stream, thus preserving it as intact as possible.

It took a long time to repair it before it regained its ability to fly.

"The Black Dragon Mountain spaceship in Ruins No. 12 is indeed the best choice, but it would still be somewhat dangerous for me to go there now."

The No. 12 site is located in the endless ocean deep in the Atlantic Ocean.

During this period, both of the ocean's two great beast kings were still alive.

Those two beast kings were at least at the sixth level of the planetary realm, and their strength would be greatly enhanced in the ocean. Moreover, they commanded a large number of king-level monsters in the ocean.

Zhou Yang really doesn't dare to provoke them now.

"However, once I raise my strength to at least the third tier of the Planetary level, those two Beast Kings should be no threat!"

Zhou Yang silently considered this in his heart.

With the aid of life force and the Wood Crystal, his cultivation speed can be described as advancing by leaps and bounds.

It shouldn't take much time to upgrade to Planetary Level 3.

With the Arc Blade Disc and the Meteorite Star Secret Technique, killing two Planetary-level Tier 6 or 7 Beast Kings shouldn't be too difficult.

"Then it's decided. We'll raise our cultivation level to at least Planetary Level 3 as soon as possible."

"Also, collect as much warship wreckage and spare parts as possible; they'll probably come in handy for repairing the Black Dragon Mountain later!"
