The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast

Chapter 821 - 538: Return to the Abyss, Approaching Beast Tide_3

But even so, this is the so-called shortcut.

It usually wanders at the deepest parts of various oceans, with its location constantly changing, as if following an extremely complex pattern. Most of the time, it remains hidden, only occasionally appearing alongside the towering walls of the Abyss, and it’s exceedingly difficult to approach.

Moreover, this Secret Realm is not a treasure but a rather perilous place, filled with indescribable dangers, where even True Intent and True Body face the risk of annihilation.

To dive in and observe the data safely, leading with a Seven-Star presence is the basic requirement. To intervene to some extent, multiple Seven-Star entities must act together.

And since various nations have deployed Seven-Stars, this definitely isn’t a regular data collection mission!

The actions of those Seven-Stars inside a few days ago, along with the anomaly just now, and the suddenly emerging beast tide all prove this point.

Although she has been holed up in Coastal City for over thirty years, almost not moving even when condensing True Intent to break through to Six-Star, this task was a forced outing by Chou Yuan.

Yet she has long immersed herself in cyberspace collecting information of all kinds, so she’s far from ignorant about this matter.

Moreover...

Her Talent is the Purple Sequence 499 [Net Sky Web], condensing True Intent [Central Axis Benefit].

For her, who has already broken through to Six-Star, detecting the undercurrents of the grand situation is as simple as eating and drinking, even when detached from the internet.

So...

——Is something about to happen?

Chou Yuan’s stern face did not show any fluctuation, he just watched one black box after another being placed into the readout device that was already prepared on the ship’s bridge.

Dozens of data processors wearing helmets, along with their Spirit Beasts, had already begun connecting to the entire [Goddess] data processing module, starting to unleash Mystical Technique.

The next moment, the large, crystal-clear screen of the bridge began interpreting the transmission, with various unsettling readings rapidly increasing.

"Your feeling is correct, what we saw just now was merely a rehearsal."

True Monarch Hong Gu hugged her chest with both hands, her words echoing through the entire bridge like a bombshell.

"The pressure deep in the Abyss has accumulated to the extreme. The more it’s suppressed, the more it rebounds, hard to contain, representing the chaotic oscillation of Blue Star’s life origin rules."

"Even Eight-Star intervention is futile; perhaps only Nine-Star can interfere."

"The current situation is likely the result of several Nine-Stars and the Demon Venerable postponing things as best they could."

"So, next..."

This commander of the eighth legion looked at the towering gray fog and the surrounding warships, as if seeing the busy figures of strong personalities from various nations on those ship bridges.

Even though the furious beast tide had been thoroughly suppressed, the ocean here and the dark sky continued to roll, seeming to stretch indefinitely.

She took a deep breath, seeming to smell the wind blowing from beyond the world’s end, tinged with ash, Demonic Qi, and the scent of war.

"A beast tide of world-scale proportion seems about to begin."

......

Seven days later.

Longteng University, inside the principal’s office.

The afternoon sunlight streamed through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, casting warm patches on the floor. The air was suffused with a soothing fragrance of high-grade Spirit Tea.

"Name?"

"Lin Guang."

"Age?"

"18."

"Occupation?"

"Student..."

The young man sat in front of the wide desk, looking at the silver-haired elderly man watching him with apparent seriousness, and added with slight helplessness:

"Occupation is student, additionally serving as Fire Division Junior General, deputy director of Earth-level City Tianji Division, Senior Researcher at Thunder Division... and Dou Division member."

"Old Deng, can’t you turn off those two bulbs?"

Vishdair raised his head with some discontent, looking at the eyes of the handsome older man in a suit.

In those dragon-like, eternally burning golden pupils, he seemed to be interrogating the young man.

He succinctly replied: "No."

The silver-haired girl used her tail to smack the sofa: "Why not! We achieved great success!"

Li Jiatu placed the teacup on the table, his expression seemed stern, speaking word by word.

"You all provided support this trip, facing a Tier Six Secret Realm severely corroded by the Demon King’s Demonic Qi and power, and four evil sect Six-Star Peaks."

"With the seeker of aid, Siam’s Fa Yun Temple Abbot True Master Fashun already gravely injured, you, at just Four-Star, not only broke through in battle, but also ingeniously improved the Fire Division’s secret [Red Dragon Devouring Demon Refinement] Grand Array."

"Moreover, you turned the tide, exterminating all four Six-Star Peaks, cleansing the entire Secret Realm of Demonic Qi, saving True Master Fashun..."

"Is this what you mean?"

Vishdair elevated his head proudly: "Why, is that not allowed?"

Zumama, munching on snacks, raised his hand: "Plus, Big Ugly and I are already Tier Five."

"Hmm."

Lin Guang nodded slightly.

"I have already delivered a memory crystal containing a trace of my True Intent and combat memories to the research division."

"The forming and improvements of that Grand Array require True Master Fashun’s Domain involvement, hard to replicate. As for Inheritance, I cannot directly condense True Intent Body for them... but I believe this is extremely valuable data, from which they should gain something."

Li Jiatu took a sip of his cup of tea, casting a glance at the four girls sitting on the sofa. His aged face remained exceedingly solemn.

"It seems excessively incredulous."

"For ordinary people, rather than believing this conclusion, they might as well believe you’ve been possessed by some higher-tier being, or say, made a bargain with a certain existence."

"Therefore, I am confirming."

"Are you still Lin Guang..."
