Age of Calamity in Swallowed Star

Chapter 176: First Battle Against a Royal-Level Beast! [Third Update, Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Great Xia, Kyoto City.

"What? Six Royal-Level Beasts!?" The black-clothed man, Hong, abruptly changed his expression, halting his practiced spear techniques.

"Brother Hong, what happened?" The bald-headed Lei Shen was also taken aback by Hong's change in demeanor.

"Lei Shen, we need to quickly head to the Australian continent. Several Royal-Level Beasts have been discovered there!"

Hong's expression was grave as he explained, "Yao Rao and the others were exploring ancient civilization ruins there when they were ambushed by six Royal-Level and several King-Level beasts.

Currently, all four of them have suffered severe injuries and are desperately fleeing for their lives. The situation is very grim!"

"Then let's make a trip!"

Lei Shen abandoned his usual playful grin, speaking with solemn seriousness.

"Also! We'd better call for more people, and also ask the Curator to come along, just in case!"

"Alright!"

The two exchanged a smile.

Before long.

A blood-red, triangular intelligent fighter jet soared from Kyoto headquarters, its destination the Australian continent.

As it flew, Hong also issued orders to the other Planet-Level members of the Limit branch: "Those who aren't currently occupied, immediately gather and head to the Australian continent to support Yao Rao."

The bald-headed middle-aged Lei Shen issued similar orders simultaneously.

...

Shancheng City, Lin Ye, who was diligently training in the gravity room, received a call from Hong.

Lin Ye: "A pack of Royal-Level Beasts has appeared on the Australian continent?"

Hong: "Yes, the number of Royal-Level Beasts is considerable… These are videos and pictures sent back by Yao Rao and the others!"

Opening the photos of the scene sent by Hong, Lin Ye's eyes narrowed into a dangerous arc.

"These King-Level and Royal-Level Beasts are definitely Babata's doing!"

The moment he saw the photos, Lin Ye immediately thought of certain plot points in the original story and began to suspect this little devil.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Ye revealed a thoughtful expression, secretly pondering, "At this point in time, Luo Feng's parents are still children… What exactly is Babata planning?

"Could it be… to lure Lei Shen and Hong there, and then trap them?"

One thought after another surfaced in his mind, so much so that he didn't even notice Chan'er, who had already condensed her form and walked to his side.

It wasn't until a faint fragrance entered his nostrils that Lin Ye belatedly reacted.

"Little Master, what are you thinking about? You seem a little absent-minded!"

Chan'er glanced at him, teasingly smiling.

"…" Lin Ye thought for a moment, and finally chose to ask the question, "Chan'er, have you ever monitored the Australian continent on Earth?"

"Of course, I've monitored it!"

"Not only have I monitored it, but I also know that beneath the Australian continent lies the immortal ruins of someone called 'Meteor Star Master,' as well as an intelligent lifeform called… Babata."

As she spoke, Chan'er took out a cup of pearl milk tea from somewhere, took a small sip, and said with a somewhat disdainful expression, "He's just a subordinate of a Marquis-level immortal. Compared to me, he's worlds apart."

"So I only paid a little attention to the things there, and didn't focus on it too much."

"Mm, I understand." After hearing Chan'er's words, Lin Ye nodded slightly.

For Chan'er, who had followed Venerable Burning Dust for countless years and was herself a King-level immortal.

The things left behind by a Marquis-level immortal were indeed not worth looking at.

But for Lin Ye and Earth, the significance was completely different.

"In that case, Babata must be behind the events on the Australian continent. It's the same old routine of creating Royal-Level Beasts and using Mu Ya Crystals as bait. Doesn't this guy know how to come up with something new?"

Lin Ye secretly muttered in his heart, a meaningful smile appearing on the corner of his lips.

"Chan'er, do you think we can capture this intelligent lifeform 'Babata' alive and have him help manage Earth?"

As he spoke, he winked at the white-clothed girl who was enjoying her milk tea, and continued, "If we do that, we'll be able to freely enter the universe!"

"Capture an intelligent lifeform alive? That sounds very reasonable, and… also very tempting!"

Upon hearing about entering the universe, Chan'er suddenly became excited, and said in succession, "I haven't been to the universe for a long time. This time, it's a good opportunity to take a look!"

"Alright, then let's go capture Babata!"

The two exchanged a look and immediately agreed.

"Then let's go at full speed!"

"As you wish, my little master!"

...

The blood-red fighter jet that departed from Kyoto flew at full speed, quickly approaching the Australian continent.

Inside the cabin.

Hong, clad in crimson armor, held a silver-white spear in his hand, his expression solemn.

Beside him.

Lei Shen, also in red battle armor, gently stroked a black-red battle blade in his hand.

"Good blade, it seems the Curator gave it to you." Hong's eyes lit up, praising, "A treasure sword for a hero."

"This blade was indeed given to me by the Curator. He also said that it is a first-order Force weapon, very suitable for Planet-Level use."

Lei Shen couldn't help but praise, his face filled with pride, gently waving the blade, the blade cutting through the air with a slicing sensation.

"Be careful this time. After all, there are multiple Royal-Level Beasts on the other side, and we don't have any experience fighting Royal-Level beasts." Hong restrained his smile, speaking solemnly.

"I know, you've already reminded me twice. Royal-Level Beasts are roughly equivalent to Planet-Level Rank 6, coupled with the beast's inherent physical strength and speed, as well as a group of King-Level Beasts harassing us from the side, it will inevitably be a fierce battle!"

The red-clothed, black-haired man looked out the window, a spark of fire rapidly rising in his eyes, burning fiercely.

He was never afraid of fierce battles.

He would only worry that his opponents were not strong enough to have a hearty and uninhibited battle.

"Let's fight then, it's just a Planet-Level Rank 6 beast."

"We've been diligently cultivating ancient civilization martial arts for the past few months, and our strength has improved by leaps and bounds, and even our realms have made breakthroughs!"

Lei Shen said heroically, cleared his throat, and continued, "Besides, the Curator also said that we can run away if we can't beat them,"

Hearing this, Hong took a deep look at the righteous-sounding bald head.

In the end, he didn't say anything, but silently looked out the window.

"The battle result, we'll only know after we fight." Hong growled.

"Let's go, let's feel the power of the Royal-Level Beasts!"

Swoosh!

A streak of blood-red light flew towards the southeast of the Australian continent.

...

The midday sun, bright but not dazzling.

The gale howled, and the dark water was shaking wildly, stirring up thousands of layers of waves.

Each wave that rolled in was as high as ten stories.

On the sea, the blood-colored fighter jet flew along at low altitude, Hong and Lei Shen were focused on observing the surrounding movements.

Rumble!!

In the towering waves, a giant beast with sixteen tentacles, each extending seven or eight hundred meters, resembling a floating island, broke through the surface of the sea and charged towards the fighter jet.

Its speed was extremely fast, and its goal was very clear.

As soon as it appeared, it locked onto the two's fighter jet.

"Not good, we can't dodge it!" Lei Shen shouted.

Immediately, the Fire God Armor covered his entire body, tightly and completely.

The speed of the intelligent fighter jet was completely inferior to this giant beast, and it could only watch as it was bundled up by the tentacles.

Before they even had a chance to open the hatch, Hong and Lei Shen were engulfed in a burst of exploding flames.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

Two streams of light shot out from the flames, hovering in the air.

Before the two could catch their breath, a sea beast about four or five hundred meters long, with a huge turtle shell on its back, broke through the surface of the sea and attacked again.

There were bumps on the turtle shell on its back, which seemed to be engraved with complex dark gold secret patterns, which were dazzling.

From a distance, the head looked like a dinosaur, and it also had a long black foot.

The sea turtle beast's scarlet vertical eyes stared intently at these two 'little guys', its bloody mouth suddenly opened, and a black beam of light spurted out.

Following the light beam was the sea turtle beast's enormous mountain-like body.

"Another Royal-Level, I'll take the turtle, you take the octopus, let's see what the Royal-Level combat power is like." Hong's eyes were deep, saying each word clearly.

"Alright!" Without any hesitation, Lei Shen transformed into a stream of blood-red light and shot out.

Just as the two were about to fall into a separate fight, in the deep sea area, four more extremely large beasts rose into the air and charged over.
