Chapter 29
The Star Core, Delicious, Tastes Like Chicken, Gomora Gobbled it Down in One Bite

While Su Zhe was indulging in the gentle embrace of the ‘Kill la Kill’ world.

Ji Zi had already launched her first ‘Exploration’.

Salsotu Star.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

“Cough cough~”

A disheveled figure struggled to climb out of the sand.

His once smooth golden hair was now a tangled mess.

He spat out a mouthful of sand.

“Damn it!”

“I should have never come down!”

“It’s all sand!”

“Damn it, even a ‘Jellyfish’ bullied me.”

“I, Void Ten Thousand Treasures, am a powerful figure. How can I be so weak?”

Well.

The disheveled man who had crawled out of the sand pit was indeed Void Ten Thousand Treasures.

He had just been dropped on Salsotu Star by the power of exploration.

And then was attacked by two strange ‘Jellyfish’.

He tried to use his abilities.

But he realized that he couldn't use them!?

So, the Jellyfish whipped him away. Thankfully, his soul steel body was strong and he didn’t die instantly.

But he did eat a mouthful of sand.

“It’s the problem with this planet.”

“Our ‘Honkai Energy’ can’t adapt immediately.”

“Hmm~”

“No, it must be because of the ‘Star Core’.”

Walter said, pushing his glasses up.

Honkai Energy is essentially an Imaginary Number.

They were able to use it when they were on the ship just after arriving.

But on Salsotu Star?

It was like a water tap, only half open?

Feeling the ‘Imaginary Number Energy’ flow in his body, Walter sighed softly, it seemed they still needed to adapt for a while.

“So, my friend, you have to protect me.”

Void Ten Thousand Treasures grinned and leaned in.

“...”

Walter pushed his glasses up and looked at the side 乛_乛.

“Oh, it’s the smell of chicken rolls.”

“This one is a bit salty, it must have sesame paste.”

Sesame paste is salty?

Walter’s gaze fell on the girl not far away, whose horns were like a crescent moon, and who was eating a ‘Burning Element Jellyfish’ with each bite. The corner of his mouth twitched.

The girl had silver-white short hair, green eyes, and a vibrant appearance.

She had the iconic crescent-shaped horns and a long tail of Gomora.

Claws appeared on her hands and feet.

A lively and cheerful girl.

Ancient monster ‘Gomora’.

Because Gomora had transformed back into her human form, the Jetton who was following closely behind, was no longer in his ‘two-headed’ form!

“This is too brutal, right?”

“...”

Void Ten Thousand Treasures was dumbfounded.

Those Burning Element Jellyfish, which made him feel so much trouble, were just snacks for Gomora?

Too brutal.

One by one.

She grabbed them directly, shoved them in her mouth, and they ‘ripped’ in two.

Chicken flavor, crunchy!

( ̄口 ̄)

Before Su Zhe left, he awakened Aile Wang and Gomora.

While Void Ten Thousand Treasures wasn’t Ji Zi’s opponent.

And!

If that guy wanted to cause trouble, Walter wouldn’t let him have his way.

Plus Palm, the hidden expert.

He would only be beaten up.

But before leaving, he still released three monster girls.

As for summoning Little Aile Wang to the ‘Kill la Kill’ world, it was just Su Zhe’s experiment.

To see if he could summon them to another world.

Apparently, he could!

Plus Jetton’s absolute defense and teleportation could ensure Ji Zi’s safety.

And!

Gomora was good at digging tunnels.

If they wanted to find the ‘Echo Glass’ in the ruins buried in the yellow sand, they needed her ability.

Only Gomora has a huge appetite.

Of course, any creature rich in ‘high energy’ would do.

What a coincidence!

The ‘Burning Element Jellyfish’ was perfect.

Plus, there were only elemental creatures on Salsotu Star, so she could just eat freely.

Watching Gomora do a flying leap and ‘ah-woo’ in one bite, swallow a Burning Element Crab…

Void Ten Thousand Treasures felt a toothache.

This girl’s teeth are good.

“There is no World Split.”

“No World Split creatures either.”

“Star Track Stability has dropped to 36%!”

“It seems the Star Core’s activity on Salsotu Star isn’t that high.”

Ji Zi walked and checked with the instrument.

The descent of a Star Core usually causes the ‘World Split’ phenomenon.

World Split creatures will destroy all life on the planet.

And Salsotu Star had been lifeless for hundreds of years.

Those ‘Elemental Creatures’ that were born afterwards didn’t count.

The Star Core destroyed Salsotu Star.

Mission accomplished.

The current state is equivalent to ‘hibernation’.

Void Ten Thousand Treasures: “...”

Why?

Why did he just come down and end up looking like a mess?

While Ji Zi remained the same, her beauty undiminished, not even the wind and sand could get close.

Is this the power of destiny?

After walking a few kilometers against the wind and sand.

They finally arrived at the ruins of the last two mobile cities on Salsotu Star, the ‘Airport’.

“We’re here.”

The Skyfishers of Salsotu Star would leave from the mobile city ‘Airport’ every dawn.

They would spread their flapping wings and soar in the air, hunting Burning Element Jellyfish that flew up from the sand.

The Burning Element in their bodies was the lifeblood that drove the giant mobile city.

They had to catch enough to ensure that the entire city wouldn’t be left behind by the dawn-dusk line.

It was also they who created the glass etching technology: Echo Glass.

“Oh?”

“It seems the Star Core is deep inside the ruins of the Airport.”

Ji Zi looked out at the horizon.

“Let’s go!”

The road was clear.

Occasionally, they would encounter some tough Elemental Creatures hiding in the sand.

But they all became snacks for Gomora.

And Walter and Void Ten Thousand Treasures, as they walked along, became more accustomed to using Imaginary Number Energy in the parallel world.

But…

The closer they got to the Star Core, the more they felt the dryness and wind and sand of Salsotu Star.

As if it were going to mercilessly bake them dry and turn them into sand.

Even with the protection of Exploration Power, the three felt like they were having a hard time moving.

The sand beneath their feet seemed ready to swallow them whole at any moment.

Entering deep into the ruins of the Airport, the group finally saw the ‘Star Core’.

A huge ball of ‘light’.

Only it was wrapped in wind-blown sand and gravel.

It looked like a sand ball that could explode at any moment.

“This is the Star Core?”

Walter was a little stunned.

The Star Core contained vast amounts of energy, enough to destroy a planet.

And the closer they got, the more they felt weak and tired.

This ‘Star Core’ was disrupting the flow of Imaginary Number Energy.

No wonder they couldn’t use their abilities earlier.

So that’s how it is…

Gomora circled around and around, drool dripping from her mouth.

“Little Gomora, come back, don’t spin around.”

Ji Zi hurried to call out.

“Sister Ji Zi, hee hee, I suddenly have a bold idea!”

“I advise you not to be bold.”

Ji Zi shook her head and was about to go forward and pull Gomora back.

Even though this Star Core looked like it was asleep.

But if they angered it…

At that moment!

The ‘Star Core’ suddenly burst into brilliant light.

It woke up!

But the next moment.

Gomora’s claws grabbed the Star Core.

She opened her mouth.

“Ah-woo~”

The Star Core, still half-asleep, instinctively sensed that something was wrong.

Then…

There was no then.

“Star Core, yummy, burp~”

She swallowed it in one gulp, Little Gomora rubbed her belly, looking unsatisfied.

Void Ten Thousand Treasures: “Scared!”

Walter: “Σ(@△@|||)”

Ji Zi: “...”
