Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

"But these troubles have all become my achievements. Every time someone causes me trouble, I gain more credit."

Scott's eyes lit up, and he became happy again.

"Thank you, sir. Then I'll cause you more trouble in the future?"

"What? You're going to cause me trouble? How dare you!"

Lin Yuan's face darkened.

"No, no, no...Sir, that's not what I meant!"

The smile turned into fear again.

A moment later, Scott stood there blankly, his eyes somewhat dazed.

Lin Yuan observed him, a meaningful smile appearing on his lips:

"Good job, Scott, you passed the stress test. You're a talented person, and I'm very satisfied."

This time, Scott managed to control his expression; he simply waited blankly for Lin Yuan's unexpected turn of events.

"Haha, stop waiting, there's no turning back. For someone as talented as you, being a salesperson is a waste of your abilities."

After waiting a moment, and realizing that Lin Yuan didn't seem to be being sarcastic, Scott's eyes lit up, and his previous confusion vanished.

"The sir must have a deeper meaning behind what he said!"

"Sir, what tasks do you have assigned me? Whether it's climbing mountains of knives or wading through seas of fire, I, Scott, can handle it. I... I'm so eager to improve!"

"it is good!"

Lin Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

"I have several important missions to accomplish in Luofu. Now, I entrust one of them to you, so that you can shine in the project and have a bright future ahead of you."

"Reporting, sir, I guarantee the mission will be accomplished!"

"Very good." Lin Yuan patted the other man on the shoulder, looking at Scott's happy expression, and said softly.

"Go and bring the Star Core Hunter back to us."

Before he could finish speaking, Scott's expression froze.

He slightly raised his hand, pointing to himself, and said cautiously:

"Sir, is it true that I can fight a Star Core Hunter?"

..........

[1] The following are all wild guesses: Rakshasa was born into the Pure Court Pope. Later, the church must have prayed for the blessing of [abundance] to fight against the demons.

The madness of the Papacy in the personal story might be similar to demonic possession. As for demons, there are also demons in Kafka's homeland, Celestial V, which are very likely related to the Star Core.

Since he is an counterpart with Otto's face, it is estimated that his homeland was also destroyed by the combined erosion of [Abundance] and the Star Core Disaster, and his beloved or someone he could never forget also died.

Then Rakshasa, possessing the remains of the Insect Emperor, plotted revenge against the [Abundant] Star God and prepared to recreate the power of [Immortality]. He must have learned about the story of Yun Wu's creation of the Evil Dragon from Jing Liu.

The Vidyadhara race can currently only reincarnate but not reproduce. This is because their "immortality" has been stripped of its "reproduction" aspect. True "immortality" should enable the propagation of new life and the cycle of reincarnation without death. It could even be said that they achieve reincarnation without death in relation to the larger environment.

But this is clearly too much, so perhaps [Immortal] wanted to complete the cycle of the entire universe, and disappeared after merging with the Dao.

I guess that in the later stages of the Rakshasa event, either he wanted to use the power of "immortality" to allow someone to reincarnate again, or he wanted to question the Tree of Existence (Tree 2.0). In any case, there will definitely be something big going on later.

Of course, this is just a guess when you're bored, don't overthink it.

Chapter 205 The Five Turbid Worlds

"Sir, is it true that I can fight a Star Core Hunter?"

Seeing Scott's stunned expression, Lin Yuan smiled and nodded.

Indeed.

"grown ups...."

Lone Wolf's tone turned somber, revealing a hint of tragic grandeur.

“I, Scott, am diligent and hardworking... If there is anything you don’t like about me, please feel free to say it. I am still young, and I want to improve... but my small frame can’t handle this arduous task.”

Looking at Scott's trembling body, Lin Yuan calmly said:

"What are you afraid of? It's not like you're going to capture the Star Core Hunter yourself, but just gather information about it. Report it as soon as you find any trace of it, and someone will take care of it."

Upon hearing this, Scott's expression immediately softened.

A somewhat embarrassed smile reappeared on her slightly pale face:

"Hehe, sir, you should have said so earlier! I, Scott, guarantee to complete the mission! I just don't know... how do we even begin to investigate these Star Core Hunters?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.

"No rush. Gather some information in the next couple of days. When the time is right, you'll have your chance to shine."

He smiled slightly, a brilliant idea forming in his mind.

Once General Jingyuan's surprise attack arrives, we'll send you to join the team tracking Kafka.

The train crew must be overjoyed.

"Oh, right, Scott."

"exist!"

"From now on, everything you say and do at Xianzhou represents the company's reputation. Stand up straight and show the company's authority. Don't be afraid... I'll back you up if anything happens."

Looking at Lin Yuan's smiling face, Scott felt a chill for no apparent reason.

..........

"kill!"

"Form ranks! Fire!"

Amidst the deafening sounds of battle, a troop of Cloud Riders clashed fiercely with a large number of Medicine King's Secret Cultivators.

The blades flashed fiercely, and the killing intent was overwhelming.

With superior equipment and a favorable formation, they were able to hold out against an enemy force that far outnumbered them.

"Hold on, brothers! Reinforcements are on their way, don't let the big fish get away!"

Gritting their teeth, the Cloud Riders fought back with all their might. Under this wave of attacks, accompanied by flashes of sword light, many of the demonic figures in front of them were killed or wounded.

But as the golden ginkgo leaves fluttered in the air, the slain cultivator was resurrected once more.

"Resurrected...?"

"Damn demonic body, so what if it's resurrected? I'll just kill it again!"

The roars of the Cloud Cavalry soldiers rang out once more. But unbeknownst to them, beneath their anger lay a different emotion.

Another arduous battle ensued, and the Cloud Cavalry's hands, holding their swords, began to tremble.

"You can't kill them all."

"I...I don't want to die."

"No!"

Suddenly, one of the Cloud Riders at the very front was pierced through by the Demon Yin's body—an injury that would normally not be fatal for Cloud Riders blessed by Heaven.

But the injured person suddenly changed.

"Ugh...uh, kill me already!"

His body trembled uncontrollably as he screamed in agony.

Gradually, golden branches began to sprout from the gaps in its armor, gradually covering its entire body.

The remaining Cloud Riders fell silent.

Both being bodies blessed by the heavens, the other will return after death.

But their comrades didn't get a second chance; instead, they became victims of evil.

"Damn it, avenge him!"

Bloodshot appeared in the eyes of the Cloud Riders. They glared at the figures opposite them with hatred, drew their swords, and continued to fulfill their duty of slaying the monstrous creatures.

However, some Cloud Riders fell silent. Faced with the Medicine King's secret teachings, the fear that had been hidden beneath their courage was slowly awakened.

There is great terror before life and death.

"Hold on, reinforcements are on their way."

"Don't hold back, they're no longer your comrades!"

After one continuous battle after another, all that remained here was silence, except for the sounds of swords hacking and axes chopping, flesh being pierced, and limbs regenerating.

My hands are trembling, and my vision is blurring.

Gradually, one Cloud Rider after another fell—either ending their lives or becoming demonic beings.

"I can't hold on any longer."

A cloud rider muttered to himself.

At that moment, he looked up at the sky and saw many dark shadows appearing there.

"Swipe brush-"

Streaks of silver light fell from the star raft that had rushed from the sky, instantly landing among the demonic figures.

The burst of silver light tore apart the surrounding figures in an instant. Before the demonic body could recover, streams of light crashed down one after another, tearing everything apart.

"My lord, reinforcements for those hounds have arrived. Should we retreat?"

Behind the battlefield, Dan Shu, now in the form of a celestial being, was watching the battle formation ahead.

Seeing this, she remained silent for a moment, then slowly nodded.

After the arrows swept across the ground, dozens of starships slowly descended.

Fully armed Cloud Cavalrymen, wielding battle swords, descended from the sky and leaped into the battle formation.
