CHAPTER 305: CHAPTER 305: TURTLE-TYPE SPACE-TIME BEAST

Lin Yi was transported to the Sea of Space-Time.

He separated the Arks, moving the Shelter to the outer edge of the Space-Time Harpoon’s range while keeping it within a certain distance.

Then, he climbed into the metal satellite orbiting the Shelter, flew towards the monster, and found a good shooting position.

He switched the harpoon to hunting mode, aimed, and fired.

A beam of red-tinged black light spurted from the opening in the center of the 50-meter diameter sphere, hitting the giant turtle-like monster’s fin.

The monster roared in pain and twisted.

"Boss, it’s hurt! I sense it’s about to launch an attack. Let me control the Shelter’s movement."

Siri’s anxious voice rang in his ears.

"Okay!" Lin Yi responded quickly and immediately fired another beam.

The giant monster, along with the Ark, flipped over.

The Leviathan roared, its two huge eyes bulging from its flat head.

This gigantic creature glared angrily at the Shelter, charging towards it with the Ark on its back.

But Siri controlled the Shelter, keeping a distance that allowed Lin Yi to continue shooting.

The harpoons fired one after another.

Although the effect wasn’t particularly significant, small chunks of flesh kept falling off the creature.

It began to bleed milky white, but soon stopped and the wound started to heal.

"This thing is really tough to deal with, but I have unlimited ammunition, hahaha!" Lin Yi laughed, adrenaline surging through his veins.

He hadn’t thought this monster would be so hard to kill! However, he had a backup plan: he could destroy the Ark from a distance, which would also kill the creature.

Time seemed to pass slowly.

The 50-meter diameter sphere relentlessly shot at the gigantic monster, but then some uninvited guests appeared...

"Boss, demon spawn! They smell the blood of the Leviathan and are here for a feast. The Shelter city is in danger."

"Understood!"

Lin Yi activated Siri’s "Space-Time Perception" skill, seeing some small black dots gathering in that area, catching the Leviathan’s blood and flesh with their mouths.

They seemed unwilling to get too close.

But just in case, Lin Yi ordered Solomon to equip the soldiers with weapons and have civilians ready to stand by.

They might need to evacuate the crowd and fend off these black creatures at any moment.

The number of those small black dots kept increasing.

He had no idea where they came from, as if they’d just popped out of superspace...

But he had no time to figure that out.

"Siri... am I seeing things, or has the Vampire Ark really shrunk?"

"...No mistake, it has shrunk. It’s only half the original size!"

"Is the turtle devouring the Ark to repair itself or something? Why not just blow up the Ark and save us the trouble?"

Lin Yi continued to hunt the Leviathan, focusing his attacks on its fin, but the creature was smart, blocking shots with the Ark or its armor.

"Siri, I’m going to upgrade the harpoon."

"Leave it to me, I won’t let it get too close."

Back in the metal sphere, Lin Yi activated the control interface and found the upgrade menu.

He paid 10 million coins, agreed to level up, and stepped away from the device.

Lin Yi floated in the Sea of Space-Time, watching the chaos around him.

The demon spawn were wildly fighting over the chunks of meat and blood, and the Leviathan’s roars were deafening, making Lin Yi feel like his head was about to explode.

Now his task was very simple.

Aim, charge, shoot!

With a beam tearing open the monster’s side, a massive explosion occurred, leaving a wound five times larger than before.

The Leviathan roared in fury, accelerating towards him like a bullet out of the barrel.

"Siri!" Lin Yi shouted as the monster’s maw sped towards him.

"Got it!" Siri shouted back.

The Shelter suddenly flashed to the side, avoiding the monster’s attack, which roared past them.

Lin Yi seized the opportunity to fire a beam, hitting its tail fin.

"Well done, let’s keep going!"

"Okay!" Siri responded excitedly at Lin Yi’s praise.

The monster suddenly changed tactics.

It no longer chased the Shelter but lunged at it repeatedly.

After five futile attempts, it reverted to its original attack strategy.

However, the Level 2 harpoon demonstrated incredible power, successfully shooting off the monster’s fin, causing the Leviathan to lose its ability for quick movement.

The ensuing battle was as simple as smashing a real turtle with a hammer.

The boss kept shooting at the nearly immobilized creature, which could only roar in agony.

"That corpse... collect the remnants..." Lin Yi hadn’t had a chance to celebrate when the voice of the Heart of the World echoed in his mind.

As usual, the voice seemed to come from somewhere deep within his consciousness, making him extremely uncomfortable.

"What exactly should I do?! Unless... maybe this is how?"

Lin Yi felt a bit anxious because the demon offspring had gone berserk, beginning to devour the corpse of the Leviathan, but he still managed to acquaint himself with the operation method.

A powerful white beam shot from the harpoon, piercing into the gigantic corpse and dragging it toward the Shelter.

"So what should I do with this thing now? How do I get it into the Shelter? It’s terrifyingly huge!"

"The Shelter will... absorb it..."

"If this is a trap, I’ll turn you into a maggot and let you live in the Taru’s toilet!"

Despite being torn apart by the demon offspring, the corpse gradually approached the Shelter.

The Shelter suddenly emitted a dazzling light, scaring off those creatures and even burning a few to death.

This gigantic corpse was three times the size of the Shelter. It approached the Dome and then... was sucked inside.

[Alert!]

The Shelter has absorbed a Demon Level Space-Time Monster, which will be processed into biomass.

Alert! Lifeform detected.

Identification result: Space-Time Monster fetus.

[Recover?]

"Boss, please give it to me! I can save it!" Siri pleaded anxiously.

"Alright," Lin Yi nodded.

Siri had never disappointed him before; maybe this could help her evolve and become stronger.

"Thank you, you won’t regret it!" the Beetle Queen responded gratefully.

A few seconds later, she contacted Lin Yi again.

"Can I have some of the demon’s meat?"

"Of course,"

Lin Yi thought for a moment, finally using the harpoon to pick up a large piece of fin and then gave it to Siri.

Then he picked up a few large chunks of meat, perhaps they would come in handy later...

He left the harpoon, focusing his attention on observing the surrounding space.

The demon offspring were still catching blood and small chunks of meat, but they dared not get too close to the Shelter and showed no interest in the remaining parts of the Vampire Ark.

After the Shelter docked with the Ark, it flew towards the nearest space-time stream.

Lin Yi was finally able to relax.

He teleported to where his laptop was located, seeing three boxes arranged in a semicircle there, but he didn’t have time to deal with them yet.

He concentrated, quickly checking on the status of the Shelter.

No invasion events had occurred, but the once spacious Vampire Ark had now been reduced to a half-destroyed small town and a few walls.

Rolling grasslands, wheat fields, small forests... were all swallowed by the Leviathan.

"Hmm... should I really sell this place to the Americans? But, they’ll definitely plant crops on it, competing with my business. If I lock up the store... that’s quite interesting."

He noted on his phone to talk to that snake about closing the store later.

Lin Yi teleported to where Siri was.

Her current appearance was not dignified.

The once powerful Beetle Queen, with a body as large as a house, could single-handedly destroy a group of zombies.

But now, she had become something made of flesh and blood vessels...

"Ah! Boss, don’t look, please... I’m begging you!" Siri pleaded.

Lin Yi immediately turned away.

"Are you okay?"

"I’m fine, I’m carrying it, it’s about to die, it will be useful in the future, I swear."

"Understood. Do you need any help?"

"Everything is ready, I need some peace." Siri sounded very tired.

"Alright. You rest. Don’t worry about anything. I’ll protect you."

"Boss... thank you..." Siri responded softly, then fell asleep.

"So... should I drive the Shelter myself now? What about the worker ants?"

Lin Yi waved his hand, and two Insect Men and a burly man in civilian clothes appeared before him.

The three of them knelt on one knee, greeting their father in unison.

"Father... Mother said she needs to sleep for a while, not sure how long. What does this mean?"

Alyosha asked, looking over Lin Yi’s shoulder at the thing that was once his mother.

"She has undergone transformation to save an unborn space-time monster baby. So, she’s hibernating now, you have to protect her. But..."

The boss glanced at the trio.

"You’re still too weak, you need to reach at least Level 10 to barely be considered powerful. So for now, my soldiers will guard this shelter."

"Understood, Father." Boria responded, then glanced at his brother and sister.

After exchanging a few silent glances, they lowered their heads without saying anything.

"Alright, don’t take unnecessary risks, and don’t do anything foolish," Lin Yi said, then sent the three of them back to their original place.

"It’s already 5 o’clock... I’ve been fighting this massive monster all day... but I’ve leveled up a few times..."

[Level: 15]...
