The Seventh Base

Chapter 1145: Chapter 191: Hunt

The storm on Dark Star is becoming increasingly intense, with battles breaking out frequently in different places. Abyss Warriors are being unleashed more and more, rampaging on Dark Star.

Only now do the forces of all parties realize that the Abyss Corps has not only trained a Slaughter Army but also cultivated a batch of Abyss Monsters in the laboratory, in very large numbers.

At a foothold on Dark Star, Avery and others are settling here.

“Xu Mo hasn’t returned yet?” Vera O’Brien asked Avery, Xu Mo and Zero went out to gather information. Xu Mo had taken on this task voluntarily, and Avery and the others didn’t oppose it.

“No.” Avery said: “But it should be safe.”

He had locked onto Xu Mo’s position.

“Gone out quite a few times, but hasn’t brought back any useful information.” Ryder said coldly from the side.

“You can go yourself.” Wu Lai glared at him.

Ryder looked at Wu Lai and said, “Really think of yourself as one of us.”

Saying this, his eyes carried a touch of sarcasm.

“Ryder, we’re all Cultivators of the Mystic God Temple, don’t go too far. If you must be so clear, how much do you weigh yourself?” Seeing Ryder’s repeated sarcasm, Avery frowned, his tone also turned less polite.

Ryder’s arrogance is no doubt because his team is strong, following Rodrigo and Vera O’Brien.

Thus, he himself relies on others, what gives him the right to teach others here?

Avery’s words were somewhat impolite, making him measure himself.

Upon hearing this, Ryder’s eyes also turned cold, snorting without continuing to say anything, turning to walk away.

In terms of individual strength, Avery was ranked seventh on the Mystic God Ranking, indeed stronger than him, who was ranked twenty-first.

Avery glanced at the location, frowning, why did the location disappear?

Did Xu Mo junior encounter an assault?

“Let’s go.” Avery said, Wu Lai and the others immediately stood up, knowing they might have encountered trouble.

“What happened?” Vera O’Brien asked.

“Xu Mo junior’s location disappeared, might have encountered an attack.” Avery said.

Vera looked serious, and immediately moved, making Rodrigo and the others look at her and act accordingly.

“Indeed.” Ryder cursed inwardly.

At this moment.

Where Xu Mo was, the surrounding area had turned into ruins, no one dared to approach, the first sequence Battle Armor shielded the energy wave of this area.

An earsplitting sharp sound came, making Xu Mo and Zero a bit uncomfortable. There were many Abyss Monsters around them; however, those ordinary Abyss Monsters had lost their Combat Power, only two massive Skywalker-level Abyss Monsters still posed a threat.

The opening and closing of their heads made one feel nauseous. At this moment, their steps retreated, a retreat impulse arose, realizing that they had encountered an ambush.

The humans before them intentionally attracted them to come.

Abyss Monsters have quite high intelligence; they once dominated this Star Domain.

“Hiss…”

A sharp spike burst from the arm of an Abyss Dominator, directly piercing the head of another desperate Abyss Monster; it had been betrayed.

Xu Mo looked at the Abyss Dominator’s actions and frowned, this behavior was indeed very close to that of humans.

“Zero, each of us handles one, control them.” Xu Mo said.

“Alright.” Zero nodded, and the two of them instantly charged towards the two Dominator-level Abyss Monsters.

The dazzling brilliance of the Energy Blade flashed like the dance of a Thunder God, and the battle ended soon.

One-on-one combat, wearing Battle Armor, Xu Mo was already very strong, dealing with one Abyss Dominator was not a problem.

The two Abyss Dominators were severely wounded, covered in blood, with many tentacles broken, but at this moment they became submissive, their ugly heads no longer brutal as before.

“Return.” Xu Mo directly issued a command in their minds, and immediately the two Abyss Dominators dashed back, along with other Monsters.

“Retreat.”

Xu Mo said to Zero, the two turned around, Energy Light burst forth, black and white figures quickly shuttled through the ruins, leaving this battlefield with the fastest speed to avoid traces being discovered.

Now Abyss Monsters are moving everywhere, replenishing killings of incoming humans, this is just part of the hunt mixed in with the Abyss Monster army, and they wouldn’t be suspected.

The various forces in the Universe are searching for Gaia, but it has not been found yet, Gaia may have hidden its identity and is hiding somewhere, only able to start internally from the Abyss Corps.

Xu Mo controls Abyss Monsters to facilitate obtaining news from inside the Abyss Corps.

On their way back, Xu Mo encountered Avery and others who came to provide support. Once the signal recovered, they could easily find each other.

“Xu Mo.” Avery stepped forward and asked, “Encountered an attack?”

“Encountered a group of abyss monsters,” Xu Mo said, “But I blocked the signal myself; I didn’t want too much noise when hunting abyss monsters. You don’t need to worry, Senior Brother.”

Avery nodded, seemingly a false alarm.

“Next time, if you actively block the signal, send a message so we’ll know,” Avery said.

“Understood, that’s my mistake.” Xu Mo nodded in response. He actually resolved the fight quite quickly, in not much time, so he thought it was unnecessary, but he hadn’t expected Senior Brother Avery and the others to come to support so quickly, indeed he was a bit careless.

“This isn’t the first mistake either,” Ryder from the Capital Star Ao Temple spoke up in reply. When you dislike someone, everything they do seems wrong.

Clearly, Ryder simply dislikes Xu Mo.

Xu Mo ignored Ryder. Since the other party purely dislikes him, there’s no need to argue or explain anything. Just ignore him; Ryder doesn’t hold much weight in Xu Mo’s eyes either.

“Any gains?” Vera O’Brien walked up and asked Xu Mo.

“Probing the memories of the abyss monsters revealed some locations of the Abyss Corps’ bases, but it’s of little significance. Even if we attack, we may not find specific clues,” Xu Mo said, “The information on Gaia is probably top secret within the Abyss Corps, likely only known to the highest levels.”

Vera O’Brien nodded. If only the Abyss King knows about Gaia’s information, it would be quite troublesome. That creator of the Abyss Corps is rumored to have been personally exiled to the abyss by the Emperor, and has a special identity. His strength is also unfathomable and should now be above Skywalker level, as a legendary cultivator.

To deal with such a level of existence, only the top powers from various forces can take action.

In that case, the situation would be completely out of control.

Generally speaking, giants do not take action lest the commotion becomes too great. It’s said that individuals of this level already have the ability to destroy planets.

In the following days, Xu Mo often went out hunting alone, gradually becoming accustomed to it. Each time Xu Mo hunted, the signal would be blocked briefly, but it quickly returned to normal, and Xu Mo would notify them in advance.

Xu Mo returned from probing information and caught up with the team.

“How’s the situation?” Wang Ming habitually asked, and Avery also looked at Xu Mo, although there wasn’t much gain each time, they still asked.

“Knowing more locations of bases, but no critical information,” Xu Mo said.

“The entire universe is looking for someone; how easy is it to find them? Take it slow; let’s see who first discovers Gaia’s whereabouts,” Wu Lai patted Xu Mo’s shoulder, saying.

“Now there are more and more monsters, which is quite suitable for trials,” Asaka said aside.

“So you’re not here for a mission but using abyss monsters as trial tools?” Ryder looked towards them and said.

“If you don’t speak, no one will think you’re mute,” Wu Lai unceremoniously retorted. The two sides have long been at odds, naturally not giving any face to each other, with mutual bickering happening often.

If Vera O’Brien and Rodrigo weren’t here, both sides would have probably fought by now.

At this moment, a group walked by from not far away, glanced towards Xu Mo’s side, some revealing different colors, then whispered among themselves as they passed by.

As they brushed past each other, Xu Mo keenly sensed something, glanced over there, slightly furrowing his brow.

“Familiar?” Avery asked.

“Not familiar,” Xu Mo shook his head, “But they seem to be discussing us.”

“Ignore it for now, temporarily don’t provoke anything,” Avery said. Currently, the forces on Dark Star are too many and chaotic; their current aim is to find Gaia, leaving other matters aside.

However, just because they don’t want trouble doesn’t mean the other party feels the same. Xu Mo soon discovered they were being followed.

“They’re following us,” Xu Mo said aloud.

“Lin, or Church people?” Wu Lai spoke.

“It’s possible,” Xu Mo nodded, assuming the other party might already know their attire.

However, the other party just followed from afar without any action.

“Let’s see if they keep up.” The group sped forward, and soon they found those behind indeed speeding forward too, not letting up in tracking them.

Rodrigo frowned, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

“Looks like trouble is upon us,” Ryder glanced towards Xu Mo, saying.

“Ryder, there’s no need for those words,” Proto beside him said. He too felt Ryder went too far, it happened too often, leaving him somewhat annoyed.

Ryder turned his head, swept Proto a glance, and said, “Proto, heard you were once hailed as the number one in the top ten Capital Star Ao Temple in the desperate realm? Went to the Empire Trial Field, got overshadowed. Now you’re friends with others?”

His voice sounded somewhat sarcastic. Because Vera O’Brien was present, some words he left unsaid.

Proto’s last trip to the Empire Trial Field was extremely unsuccessful, even causing the death of Heath O’Brien, famously humiliating, and he’s long been displeased with Proto’s relationship with Xu Mo, how could he still have the face to speak for Xu Mo?

“Ryder.” Vera O’Brien gave Ryder a cold look, clearly having grown impatient with him too. As members of the Mystic God Temple, executing the same task, Ryder acts like a pest within the team, continually disrupting team unity, bringing personal grudges into the mission.

Though Ryder felt displeased inside, intimidated by Vera’s status, and seeing Rodrigo also look his way, he immediately shut his mouth and shifted his gaze.

As the group continued forward, the ground suddenly shook.

Xu Mo’s Battle Armor issued a warning, and everyone else’s equipment also received energy signals.

“A large number of abyss monsters are approaching,” Xu Mo said, his face changing slightly; have they been exposed? Is the Abyss Corps targeting them specifically?

“Prepare for battle.” Avery’s expression was serious. With abyss monsters ahead and followers behind, it seems a bit troublesome.
