Split Sky Rider

Chapter 1194 - Arms

Feathers have very good thermal insulation properties, especially the fine down near the feather roots, which have even better thermal insulation properties. Perhaps this is why a small number of feathered people live in icy continents like Antarctica. When they wrap their bodies with huge feathers, they become a natural down jacket. The fur of other species is hard to match.

Especially for the Feather Tribe who have lived in Antarctica for generations, their down feathers are more developed, making their wings fluffier and thicker. In addition, the Feather Tribe's elemental affinity is not low to begin with, and most of them have the ability to cast spells, which is enough to resist the invasion of severe cold. Coupled with the equipment provided by the Slan royal family, they are still not greatly affected in the extremely cold weather of more than 100 degrees Celsius below zero.

In the small square in the center of the town, a huge monster was released from a space alchemical storage device. Its size was comparable to that of an adult blue whale on Blue Star, only slightly larger. Its ferocious head was made up of bone armor with only a few stitching lines, and four pairs of fin-like feet extended from the left and right sides of its abdomen covered with layers of large scales. The rest of its body was covered with thick white hair, each of which was very thick and reflected a waxy luster under the light. There was a bunch of narrow spines from head to tail, and a shark-like tail fin with spikes, which looked like a terrible big claw.

It can be seen that the Hanyuan Beast is very good at climbing on ice and lying in the snow. It can even swim under the thick snow like a fish in water, and then suddenly jump out to devour its prey.

The ferocious creature, the Frost Abyss Beast, which looked like it was definitely not a good thing, lay quietly on the ground with its teeth bared and no breath left. Purple liquid was oozing out from more than a dozen places on its body, especially on the scales covering its head, where there were visible bullet holes, which should be the penetrating wounds caused by the railgun battle rifle.

The kinetic energy of a full-power launch of a magnetic rail weapon is too great for most creatures on the Sky Star to withstand. Even a giant dragon would not be able to withstand the fierce concentrated fire of a large-caliber magnetic rail weapon without defensive spells.

These abyss beasts are rarely seen on the edge of the Antarctic continent. The only area where these predatory creatures move is 500 kilometers inland from the coastline to the center of the continent. The densely populated areas of glaciers and ice rivers are the paradise of the abyss beasts.

Adam: Parasite detected.

Artificial intelligence AI "Adam" suddenly popped up a subtitle prompt, saying that some operations are performed automatically and are part of daily warning scans and do not require manual execution.

Chen Fei: “Hmm?”

The AR visual assistance effect of the naked eye constructed a three-dimensional model of the internal structure of the cold abyss beast within the field of vision, and highlighted a small headless human outline near the back of the head, and a penetrating trajectory just passed through the position where the head disappeared.

Without a doubt, a direct shot in the head.

No wonder these young Feather Clan members were able to hunt down the parasitic Frost Abyss Beast so easily. The deliberate and unintentional cold shots from their railgun battle rifles were indeed very effective.

He and Chen Fei had dealt with the "Sagari" civilization many times, but in most of the experiences, the fights were outside the field of vision. Often, before the real body of the "Sagari" was seen, the opponent was already dead, or even reduced to ashes.

The lively scene of laughter gradually became quiet, and many people looked at Chen Fei in surprise and doubt. For many creatures of the Cangqiong Star civilization, the existence of "Sagali" was equivalent to a taboo. No one knew what evidence this human race had to say that this Hanyuan Beast was the host of "Sagali".

"Are you sure?"

Princess Lin Ziyu's expression became solemn. She unexpectedly discovered a parasitic species, especially on the Antarctic continent.

Knight, the person in charge of the "White City", the secret permanent base of the Slan royal family in the heart of Antarctica, suppressed his inner shock and asked hurriedly: "It's 'Sagali', is it really the host of 'Sagali'?"

Who would have thought that the prey hunted by the young people actually contained parasitic species? This is a big deal.

"We'll know after an on-site autopsy! There's a sac-like cavity two feet below the skin, inside the edge of the exoskeleton of the head. Inside, the parasite is still a parasite, and the host is still a host. It won't affect the taste."

Chen Fei pointed at the corpse of the Hanyuan Beast, which was the hiding place of the parasitic species "Sagari".

He would not eat human-shaped parasitic species, but he would still like to try the Frost Abyss Beast. Only the first sovereign of Blue Star could say such a thing.

"knew!"

The leader of the young Feather Clan who went out hunting immediately drew out a sharp hunting knife, moved his wings slightly behind him, and pushed by the airflow, jumped onto the back of the Frost Abyss Beast, found the right position, and stabbed it hard with the blade.

Other young men from the Feather Tribe also drew out their hunting knives and assisted in dissecting the tissues near the head. The rough white hair was easily cut off, and the tough skin under the hair could not withstand the sharp hunting knives.

After scratching for a while in the purple blood and dark red muscle fibers mixed with large and small round granular fat, he found a strange "cyst" tissue. He lightly scratched the surface of the cyst with the hunting knife, and light yellow liquid immediately gushed out, washing away the surrounding purple animal blood.

The leading young man from the Feather Tribe was also very courageous. He directly reached his hand into the swollen tissue, felt around for a while, and his face changed slightly. He looked around and shouted, "Found it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he pulled out a humanoid body that looked like a headless toddler from the round "swollen" tissue.

In the center of the town square, the Feather people who were surrounding the corpse of the Hanyuan Beast in three layers inside and outside looked at the headless corpse of the "Sagali" soldier in the hands of the Feather youth and cried out loudly, causing an uproar at the scene.

The Hanyuan beast is not a human being. The difference in DNA genetic information spans across orders, families, genera, and species, and even across classes. Naturally, it is impossible for it to give birth to a human embryo. Even the back of the brain is not where the reproductive organs are located. Therefore, the humanoid creature found here can only have one possibility, that is, it is a real "Sagari", and it is a military type.

The combat effectiveness of the species parasitized by "Sagari" will undergo a qualitative leap, and they must not be treated as ordinary cold abyss beasts. However, these young people of the Feather Clan killed the host of the soldier "Sagari" by ambush and sneak attack, and successfully blew up the soldier's head with a burst of gunfire. The opponent had no chance to fight back from beginning to end, which was extremely lucky.

If the parasitic species that was shot in the head was not a soldier but a general, and was on guard, it would not be so easy for these young Feathered Clan members to succeed, and there might even be some casualties.

"Chen Fei, you're right! It looks like Antarctica is going to be in turmoil."

Princess Lin Ziyu's tone became increasingly cold; she sensed the crisis that the "White City" base was facing.

If the Feathered People stationed here had not retained the custom of hunting, they would not have known that they were being spotted right under their noses by the "Sagari" lurking on the Sky Star.

I originally thought that Antarctica, with its extreme climate, should be a pure land and that Sagari should look down upon it. But now it seems that it has become a hiding place for the darkest places.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The Lord of "White City", Knight, thought about it carefully and said seriously: "This... is definitely the first time I have discovered it. I have hunted cold abyss beasts before, but I have never found 'Sagali'." If he doesn't explain it clearly, he may be held accountable for not reporting the matter, which is an unexpected disaster.

How can one allow others to sleep soundly beside one's bed? "White City" is no longer just an emergency refuge for the Sri Lankan royal family, but also an important base for monitoring the entire Antarctica. Lin Ziyu immediately decided to assign a new mission to this secret permanent base.

"Yes! The strategic significance of 'White City' has changed. Not only will the scope of daily surveillance be expanded, but the patrol range will also cover the entire continent."

The parasitic species are the mortal enemies of all living things on the Sky Star. The possibility of the person in charge, Knight, defecting to the enemy is not great. This is the result of lessons accumulated over 100,000 years. Although there will still be some guys who don't think straight, the probability of this happening is very low.

"As you command, Your Highness!"

Knight quickly half-knelt on the ground and accepted the order.

It's not just for the order of Her Royal Highness the Princess, but also for the lives and property of all the Feathered People in the "White City" base. Once targeted by "Sagari", no man, woman, old or young here will be spared. Even if there is no such order, he will do so, and even do it more meticulously.

"Lord Knight, I believe you will not let me and your people down."

Princess Lin Ziyu nodded. Surveillance and patrolling were originally the abilities that these Feathered People were best at. With advanced weapons and equipment, even if they encountered the host of "Sagari" head-on, both the soldiers and generals could fight.

Orders to increase alert and patrols were quickly issued.

The dismemberment of the Frost Abyss Beast is still ongoing. After all, apart from the corpses of the "Sagali" soldiers, the host is still edible. The Feathered People who have lived in the bitter cold land for generations will not waste a single cent of food.

"Do you still want to place the 'Star Gate' here?"

Chen Fei began to worry about the safety of the secret permanent base in "White City".

"Let it go! Anyway, the Star Gate itself is with you. As long as it is not transferred here, no one can take it away!"

Her Royal Highness did not hesitate at all.

Compared with the "Boundary Gate" and Longinus, the "Star Gate" has the lowest probability of being robbed. No one can forcibly snatch the "Star Gate" from Chen Fei's "Space Imprint" and "Boundary Pearl" life space.

It would be useless even if it was stolen. Without the coordinates, the "Star Gate" would be just a pile of scrap metal.

Even if it is snatched away, without the "planetary-level computing nodes", it is impossible to obtain new coordinate points.

Lord Knight arranged a safe space inside the mountain for Princess Lin Ziyu, which has convenient transportation and a relatively hidden location, right near the city lord's office.

Compared with the other two successfully acquired coordinate locations, the "Star Gate" setting point of "White City" is easier to hide. As long as the "Star Gate" is not projected over, no one will know that this small library can be connected to other places. The coordinate point not only means that it can go directly to the Blue Star, but also establish connection channels between each other.

Men, women, young and old from the Feather Tribe worked together. When the coordinates of the "Star Gate" were obtained, a huge Frost Abyss Beast had been chopped into eight pieces, and the ingredients for entertaining the princess and her entourage had been taken out, and the preliminary processing and preparation work before cooking began.
