Chapter 701: Chapter 409: Who were you just talking to?

Bai Yilin walked among the shattered highways, beyond the city limits where everything had long since fallen into ruin, a polluted realm.

“Whoosh!”

With a move of his figure, dozens of Pollution Monsters were pierced directly by a burst of cold light!

His strength, far surpassing that of other ordinary adventurers, allowed Bai Yilin to move around here with ease.

He somewhat wearily retracted his weapon and checked the time,

“It’s about time to gather.”

He and the members of the Meteor Alliance, with their exceptional strengths far beyond ordinary people, were comparable to so-called rising stars.

Therefore, even when competing with many adventurers, they could fight for the upper hand.

However,

Bai Yilin exhaled a breath; those specks of light contained various residual energies, much like bombs.

Their power indeed was impressive, a strong point of firepower, but… they offered no enhancement to them personally.

This was not what they sought.

Bai Yilin’s gaze shifted to the distance.

The recent commotion from Demon Land had also naturally revealed itself to everyone, the connection to the Ancient Battlefield of the Sky Dome now dark red as if heralding doomsday.

He also saw many people heading there.

“Clack.”

Bai Yilin didn’t linger here and quickly moved on; he needed to rendezvous with the others first to discuss the next steps.

Their agreed-upon meeting place was naturally not far from the city.

After all, they didn’t have any enemies, and the area near the city was relatively safe.

However,

As Bai Yilin stepped into the city, he found the surrounding streets already filled with quite a few people…

It was very lively.

?

What was going on? Were there more people than before, all attracted back by the spectacle of Demon Land?

But…

Bai Yilin looked toward the dark red blood mist of Demon Land.

“Isn’t that place full of maddening Twists?”

Many people had tried to go there before, but all were deterred by the terrifying Twisted that caused disorientation.

Because… without strong spiritual power, or special equipment, tool guidance, venturing in meant a certain death.

But now.

It seemed so many were eagerly awaiting, as if wanting to enter Demon Land.

Bai Yilin maneuvered through the bustling crowd, preparing to head deeper.

Suddenly, a hand patted his shoulder.

“It’s me.”

Bai Yilin turned to see Frost from the Meteor Alliance, revealing a smile.

“The others have gathered; this time you’re a bit slow.”

Bai Yilin took a slow breath, his expression relaxing, “Can’t help it, I was delayed on the way.”

In this place, filled with constant danger and isolation, vicious competition, one had to be always tense and alert. Knowing that the others were safe, he could also rest easy.

He looked around, “So, what’s going on here?”

Frost didn’t answer immediately but spoke softly, “Come with me first.”

“This time, there seems to be news about that Sect Hierarch you mentioned.”

Bai Yilin’s expression shook fiercely, and he hurriedly followed!

“Wait, who did you say? The Sect Hierarch???”

“Su Buxian??”

Frost walked ahead, not immediately responding, and soon Bai Yilin saw the rest of the Meteor Alliance, each resting and greeting Bai Yilin with weary yet smiling faces.

It seemed each person had encountered various issues,

“You asked me… Maybe you should ask it.”

Shandian, making sounds of magnetic axle rotation from You’s shoulder, jumped down.

“Shandian?” Bai Yilin wasn’t too surprised but sharply looked around, slightly startled, “Where’s Jiang Zhi?”

“Aren’t you with Jiang Zhi?”

“He hasn’t returned,” Shandian said, “He should be with Su Buxian now.”

“Also, this is something Su Buxian… wanted me to give to you personally.”

Shandian opened his mouth, and a Starfire Chip appeared.

Although Bai Yilin had many questions, he still reached out his hand.

He had seen Brother Su using this Starfire before, treating it like an ordinary thing, like those consumable fireworks in games, with no actual function but lovely visual effects.

But as soon as his hand touched it, the Starfire turned into a dot, merging directly with his wrist.

The next moment,

Bai Yilin’s view jerked, and various holographic screens appeared before his eyes.

There was even… The Hustlers Sect’s emblem and identity authentication.

Bai Yilin was somewhat stunned and even a bit touched.

“So… Brother Su didn’t run away.”

And Shandian cocked its head,

“This is quite a curious technology, with traces of our own, yet I cannot see through it.”

Naturally, it had studied the technology but could not parse a bit of it; the embedded strength seemed somewhat similar to the power that had saved itself before.

Could this be technology that Su Buxian received from Boss Bai Qixing?

Boss Bai Qixing’s attitude toward Su Buxian had been a bit odd before, a mix of gratitude with a share of other complex feelings, respect, and disquiet.

It seemed Su Buxian had told Boss Bai Qixing something, causing him to rush back to the Divine Machinery Kingdom.

Bai Yilin silently looked at the chip before him,

There were quite a lot of functions listed on it.

Such as,

[Star Fire Universe Function]: allows people’s spirits to enter a virtual universe, enabling physical contact and communication in any location in the Present World,

[Dimension Training Ground Function]: can record a massive amount of world data, simulating this world into The Hustlers Sect’s training ground.

Besides these… there were a whole array of [Starfire Lighthouse Guide], [Starfire Store], [Starfire Support Call], and other functions.
