200 The Fang of the Platypus Star Beast [Four-in-One, Chapter Sequence Leap!]
It had been little more than two hours since the Leonin and Pisces ships had landed on Laka Star…
Already receiving another signal so soon?
Lu Chen found it rather suspicious.
He immediately took some roasted fish and boarded the Pisces ship.
He shared the roasted fish with the crew aboard Pisces.
Then, settling into the communications officer’s seat, he began analyzing the recently received distress signal.
The signal still originated from Luke!
The distress call was identical, yet the accompanying positioning signals differed, even the encoding method had changed.
This time, Lu Chen easily decoded the signal by comparing it with the first one.
“How’s it looking?” the Pisces woman asked nervously.
Based on the signal’s format and the positioning data, Lu Chen offered his deduction.
“Luke has indeed been captured. This ship has already left the Zuan Cloud. Judging by its travel speed, its engine is about level fifty. Its course is set for the nearest imperial checkpoint… If I’m right, they’re trying to escape the Pangu Corridor.”
The mention of the imperial checkpoint triggered a memory for the Pisces woman. After escaping the laboratory, she had hidden among slave ships entering the Pangu Corridor before her father rescued her.
Could it be that these people intended to take Luke back to the laboratory?
Without hesitation, she made her decision.
“I’m going after them right now!”
Lu Chen suddenly asked with curiosity:
“Aren’t you on a mission?”
She explained:
“This mission is just the commander testing me. The third fleet is the main force executing the actual mission.”
Lu Chen stood, accepted a cup of coffee brought by the communications officer, and calmly sipped it.
He sighed softly and voiced his concern.
“Is it possible this is a trap set for you?”
The Pisces woman frowned.
“What do you mean?”
Lu Chen replied:
“I don’t believe any ship capable of sending such advanced positional codes would give Luke multiple chances to send distress signals.
Unless Luke’s hacking skills reach at least ten percent of mine, he couldn’t have done it.”
The Pisces woman fell into thought.
Though Luke had enjoyed tinkering with the octopus ship his father left underwater since childhood, he wasn’t skilled in spiritual encoding. After years of repairing ships, he still hadn’t mastered it.
“A trap to lure me over? What makes me so special?”
Lu Chen looked her up and down.
The Pisces species was an artificially synthesized aquatic spirit beast, lacking the aesthetic appeal or humanoid traits of mermaids.
The Pisces woman was an exception.
“You come from the empire’s biological laboratory. Recovering experimental subjects would be normal, right? Of course, that’s just my guess. If you insist on rescuing him, I won’t stop you.”
After serious consideration, the Pisces woman decided to rescue Luke.
“If that’s the case, then I have even more reason to go. Past grudges can’t be avoided; sooner or later, they must be settled.”
Lu Chen put down his coffee cup and said calmly:
“First, I have to make it clear—I won’t be going with you.”
The Pisces woman looked slightly disappointed, though she hadn’t expected Lu Chen’s help to begin with. She immediately sent someone to retrieve a box of spirit stones.
“No need. You’ve already done half the work. Here are five thousand spirit stones. Once I find Luke’s ship, I’ll give you the remaining five thousand.”
Lu Chen lifted the heavy box of spirit stones.
“Thanks. Oh, and remember to transfer the final payment to my adventurer account before the rescue. I’m worried you might not come back.”
The Pisces woman crossed her arms and snorted coldly.
“Have you ever seen an experimenter kill their experimental subject?”
Then she turned to her crew.
“This is my personal adventure. When I catch up with the enemy ship, I’ll take the shuttle to pursue it. Pisces will provide support from behind. If I get captured, don’t risk your lives trying to rescue me.”
The crew had been enjoying the roasted fish but now, hearing such a grim announcement, their appetites vanished.
“Finish your fish first. Good luck!”
Lu Chen smiled and turned away from the Pisces ship.
…
Back aboard the Leonin.
Gloria, having eaten and drunk her fill, lay back in the gaming chair, dozing with a drool at the corner of her mouth and her belly swollen like a pregnant woman.
Ellie was busy handling daily chores aboard the ship.
Lu Chen placed the box of spirit stones on the leisure table and roughly counted them, feeling quite pleased.
“Earning these five thousand spirit stones was easy. Hopefully, that woman survives and settles my final payment.”
Previously, Lu Chen had over thirty thousand spirit stones. He spent twelve thousand on Grand Longevity Star and now replenished five thousand more, keeping his total assets above twenty-five thousand—still quite wealthy.
He glanced at Gloria.
She was sound asleep, a faint silly smile on her face, utterly unmoved even by money—quite rare indeed.
Lu Chen sat down and sipped his tea.
He should have been excited, yet an inexplicable unease lingered in his heart.
After pondering, he still felt something was amiss.
He suddenly turned to Ellie.
“I’m wondering—since that Black Swan hides in folded space, isn’t that a form of invisibility? Could it be that they never left Laka Star and have been watching us in secret all along?”
Ellie sat at the leisure table and thoughtfully analyzed.
“If the Black Swan truly hides in nearby folded space, it can’t receive spiritual energy or electromagnetic signals. It can only sense nearby gravitational waves.”
You understand science too?
Lu Chen was momentarily stunned, staring at Ellie’s seemingly innocent yet sharp face.
“So?”
Ellie thought for a moment.
“Warp jumps or the regular flight of star beast ships cause spatial ripples and gravitational fluctuations.
Therefore, in the Zuan Cloud, star beast ships’ flight patterns make them more susceptible to detection and attack by the Black Swan.
Of course, if our ships warp forcibly, we’d also be easily discovered…
If the Black Swan really is on this planet, it will definitely attack the Pisces ship again.”
Lu Chen fell into deep thought.
He simultaneously browsed the Adventurers’ Association forum, skimming through reports of ship attacks.
There were quite a few star beast ship incidents, mostly when ships gathered in groups.
Seems Ellie’s theory holds water.
But that doesn’t mean the Black Swan isn’t nearby.
Lu Chen had another hypothesis.
“Could it be that the Black Swan first spotted the Pisces ship, prepared to attack, but then noticed us nearby and switched to covert observation, waiting for the right moment?”
He even explained his reasoning.
“Since entering the Zuan Cloud, from Thread Sandworms to Thunder Stingrays to the Giant-Tooth Sharks here… maybe influenced by the Shadowless Whale Pearl, I feel especially prone to star beast attacks—more precisely, to being devoured. In the Zuan Cloud, every star beast seems to want to eat me.”
Ellie rested her chin on her hands, staring blankly at the captain.
She thought, the captain is so outstanding, it’s only natural star beasts take an interest… or rather, a predatory appetite.
Seeing Ellie silent, Lu Chen pressed on.
“Ellie, what’s your take?”
Ellie snapped back to attention and quickly said:
“It’s possible… beasts have far superior close-range spiritual perception compared to human consciousness or ship radars. And the Shadowless Whale Pearl is like bait to dragons, likely attracting large beasts.”
Lu Chen nodded thoughtfully.
Ellie continued:
“But if the Black Swan is observing us, three conditions must be met:
First, the Black Swan is as intelligent as humans.
Second, it is very close—within about ten kilometers; otherwise, it couldn’t detect us.
Third, it thinks we’re special or extremely dangerous, so it hasn’t attacked us on its home turf but remains hidden, watching.”
“Uh… that sounds terrifying.”
Lu Chen shuddered.
He instinctively scanned his surroundings—nothing unusual.
Checking carefully, no danger alerts had been received.
“We should leave this cursed place as soon as possible.”
“Agreed!”
The Leonin rose and continued toward the heart of the Zuan Cloud.
Along the way, fewer and fewer adventurer ships followed or accompanied the Leonin.
After all, teaming up with Pisces and linking to the Guernica Beast Taming Corps made most people hesitant to interfere.
Lu Chen stopped pondering the Black Swan.
Instead, he sipped his tea calmly and checked the news to see if anything new was happening nearby.
The Association forum was already abuzz with rumors: the Leonin being held hostage by Pisces, the Primitive Star Dome joining Guernica, secret silver parties between the two sides… all sorts of wild guesses.
Ellie was quite angry.
“A silver party? That’s over the top—it's just roasted fish!”
Lu Chen sighed helplessly.
“Ah, the downside of fame in the internet age.”
Overall, as time passed, news and posts about the Zuan Cloud became scarcer.
Related posts or streams mostly involved boring planetary exploration stories.
Soon, a newly posted thread caught Lu Chen’s attention.
[Live from Zuan Cloud: The Justice Hunters Adventurer Corps Engaged in Fierce Battle with Wolf Fang Company Fleet!]
“My two enemies are fighting each other?”
Lu Chen immediately clicked to open the thread.
The Wolf Fang Company’s mercenary fleet was locked in fierce combat with the Justice Hunters in the Bocai Star Sector.
Both were en route through the central region toward Grand Longevity Star, intending to seek out the Leonin. But on crossing paths, they began exchanging information, and somehow, a fight broke out.
Lu Chen suddenly recalled something.
“Could it be caused by that virus program I sent?”
The Wushi was a direct cargo ship of Wolf Fang Company, constantly monitored by headquarters, which may have seen Lu Chen’s email.
Moreover, the Wushi was sold by Lu Chen, possibly decrypted by opportunists and sold to Wolf Fang.
Though the virus was likely fabricated, encountering the Justice Hunters naturally prompted Wolf Fang to investigate their ties to the Primitive Star Dome.
If both sides realized they were after the same vengeance, they’d compete fiercely for the sole chance.
“Good, let them fight!”
The battle’s location was not far ahead.
Lu Chen decided immediately.
“This’ll be exciting. Ellie, divert course slightly—we’re going to go stir the pot.”
Ellie paused, not understanding “stir the pot.”
“Captain, both sides are our enemies. Who are we helping?”
“I’m going to add fuel to the fire!”
…
An hour and a half later.
The Leonin arrived in the Bocai Star Sector.
To avoid radar detection, the Leonin remained on the outskirts of the battle zone.
Lu Chen received several live broadcast signals uploaded to the Helium Flash Network servers.
He opened one stream from the Crazy Little Sun People Live Broadcast Company.
The hosts were a pair of not-so-attractive but humorous twin sisters.
The battle had raged for two hours and was still ongoing!
Dozens of adventurer ships had gathered nearby to watch.
The scene was chaotic, with debris flying everywhere.
The Justice Hunters’ kun-shaped ships had been torn apart.
Crew had disembarked to fight hand-to-hand—some in armor, some piloting shuttles, others bare-chested beast tamers and mages…
On the other side, Wolf Fang’s fleet had weaker individual combatants but fielded a level-fifty mothership and dozens of forty- to fifty-level fighter ships employing a kite-style wolf-pack tactic, surrounding the Justice Hunters and continuously harassing them from afar.
This stalemate had persisted until now.
Yet, Wolf Fang’s mercenary fleet clearly held the advantage.
After watching for a while, Lu Chen commented:
“Looks like the Justice Hunters took a heavy hit from the Scion Star’s Uncrowned Fleet. They’re so beaten that they’re still fighting instead of retreating, despite not having recovered their strength after entering the Hundred Thousand New Era and carrying idol baggage.
That’s why the stalemate drags on…
While two rivals fight, the fisherman gains. Just wait—knowing Quindi Augs’ temperament, the Justice Hunters will fight to the death.
Then we can strike suddenly and wipe them both out.”
Ellie worriedly added:
“But then, all those watching adventurer ships will scramble for loot, making it hard for us to get any good spoils.”
Lu Chen laughed.
“No matter. Even if all the ships are destroyed, and others snatch spoils, we’ll still get something. Besides, revenge is the point… Revenge is what makes adventure fun.”
“Mm.”
Lu Chen resumed reading the news.
The adventurer forum mostly gossiped about the incident but vented anger at Beast Paradise.
“The Beast Paradise officials are completely invisible. Such a large-scale battle, and they don’t even glance over, pretending not to know.”
“They say they protect adventurer ships? Protect my ass. I think they want adventurers to die.”
“Maybe the star beasts are under their control!”
Seeing the star beasts, Ellie suddenly wondered:
“With so many ships gathered, could they be attacked by a star beast swarm?”
Lu Chen was taken aback.
“Don’t jinx it…”
No sooner had he spoken than ripples spread across the sky over the battlefield.
Like a huge flower bud, it blossomed instantly.
The concealed folded space slowly unfolded…
A coiled black shadow suddenly spread its wings.
Darkening the sky.
Casting a heavy shadow.
A level-sixty star beast’s spiritual pressure radiated instantly as countless star beasts burst from the shadow.
Lu Chen stared at the shadow on the livestream screen.
It was shaped like a swan!
“The Black Swan!”
“You really are a jinx, Ellie… Wait, could the Black Swan have been following us all along?”
Ellie also felt chills.
“Poss-possible…”
Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
“Luckily, we’re far away.”
On the livestream screen, over a hundred star beasts surged from beneath the Black Swan’s wings, attacking all ships indiscriminately.
One level-sixty star beast—the Black Swan.
Eight star beasts above level fifty.
The rest all above level forty.
In total: one hundred and sixteen star beasts!
“At a time like this, the livestream crew is still counting star beasts… No wonder streamers don’t care about their lives!”
Lu Chen chuckled.
Meanwhile, a one-light-second radius around the battle zone descended into chaos.
Onlookers scattered, seeking escape routes.
But no ship dared to warp recklessly—one mistake could mean destruction and death, leaving nothing behind.
Ships’ short-distance sprint speeds couldn’t match high-level star beasts.
They had to fight while retreating, hoping to outrun others to survive.
At the battle’s center, Wolf Fang’s fleet bore the brunt of the star beasts’ assault.
Ellie focused on the screen and analyzed seriously.
“Maybe Wolf Fang also traffics star beasts.”
“Makes sense.”
Lu Chen felt a grim satisfaction.
Though not fighting personally, watching enemies devoured by star beasts was thrilling.
Not only Wolf Fang’s fleet, but Justice Hunters’ crew also suffered star beast attacks and predation.
Meanwhile, Lu Chen’s treasure map showed numerous dense targets nearby—
“Finally!”
This indicated that most star beasts could be hunted despite the element of surprise.
Yet, the Leonin was small; capturing even one level-forty star beast alive would be a feat.
“Opportunity knocks but once. No matter what, I’ll cloak and sneak in… These ships max out at level fifty. Against the star beast swarm, they’re doomed. I have to seize the chaos to snatch a live star beast and quickly leave.”
With that thought, Lu Chen manually piloted the ship into full cloaking mode and approached the battleground.
He told Ellie:
“We’re going after a level-forty star beast. I used to maintain ship stealth for ten minutes; now, with improved cultivation, I can hold twelve to fifteen minutes. Ellie, keep track of time. We must leave before then.”
“Got it!”
Ellie stood, sharing his excitement.
“Don’t need to wake Gloria?”
“Nope… this time we’re capturing alive!”
Lu Chen piloted the Leonin straight into the chaotic battlefield.
Though called intense, radar terms aside, the area was still quite open.
In stealth, the Leonin easily avoided surprise attacks—unless unlucky enough to hit a laser cannon blast…
With so many star beasts—eight level-fifties among them—both Justice Hunters and Wolf Fang, the main combatants, no longer lingered, fleeing in all directions.
Yet the star beast swarm seemed tactical, focusing their attacks.
Particularly, Wolf Fang’s fleet was mass-targeted by dozens of star beasts, including five above level fifty.
Wolf Fang’s dozen or so fighter ships were soon wiped out.
Only the mothership, under the desperate cover of a few fighters, barely broke free from two level-fifty star beasts’ pursuit, preparing to flee.
At that moment—
The Leonin, tracking the mothership closely, found a cunning angle and fired a laser cannon shot directly at the engine nozzle as the mothership was vector-shifting.
The mothership instantly lost speed…
Two level-fifty star beasts pounced immediately!
Inside the ship, everyone was stunned.
“The Justice Hunters are already overwhelmed. Others’ ships are exploding or fleeing… Why is there a laser cannon attacking our engine?”
“Where did that laser cannon come from? It just hit our vector drive!”
“We’ve contacted rescue fleets for two and a half hours—why hasn’t Beast Paradise arrived?”
“Help! Save us…”
The immobilized Wolf Fang mothership furiously fired lasers, missiles, nuclear warheads, and large doses of tranquilizers at the surrounding star beasts.
Some had effect, others none…
Soon, the mothership’s spiritual pool was depleted, leaving it at the mercy of star beasts. The hull was torn apart rapidly.
Crew were devoured, and escaping shuttles were destroyed by nearby beasts.
Lu Chen remained cloaked, piloting near the mothership.
When the star beasts dispersed, he deployed the ship’s external mechanical arm to search the wreckage.
He salvaged a missile magazine.
Upon inspection, it wasn’t a missile magazine but a box magazine for tranquilizer launchers!
Inside were three massive syringe-like tranquilizers.
Two meters long, twenty centimeters thick, opaque iron tubes with automatic needle injection…
[Test tranquilizer for star beasts: effective up to level fifty, but needle tips lack hardness, making penetration and injection difficult.]
“This is a treasure. Might struggle with level-fifty beasts, but easy for level-forty!”
After Wolf Fang’s fleet was annihilated, Lu Chen turned to pursue the Justice Hunters.
They fought in space without ships, using armor and their bodies.
Soon only a dozen remained.
Even Quindi Augs’ armor was badly damaged.
Currently, the dozen gathered under Quindi Augs’ leadership, surrounding a level fifty-two kun-shaped star beast.
They clung to its back, firmly wielding various weapons.
Victory seemed near…
“They still can’t forget the kun!”
Lu Chen couldn’t allow their success.
He prepared a level-forty laser cannon.
At long range, fully automatic calibration!
Teleporting and firing rapid bursts!
He struck the exhausted, defenseless dozen crew members—one laser shot each.
After a dozen shots, the Leonin turned and vanished.
Half were killed on the spot.
The rest suffered minor and serious injuries.
“Damn, I saw it! It’s the Leonin!”
“They strike like ghosts everywhere…”
“These bastards have grown wings, daring to attack us actively.”
“Why don’t the star beasts attack them?”
“Captain, I just saw Wolf Fang’s mothership damaged. Could the Leonin have summoned those star beasts?”
“Not the time to discuss that—just survive first!”
Unknowingly, Lu Chen saved the trapped giant interstellar kun.
The kun let out a long roar, majestic and overwhelming, flipping and swallowing the remaining foes…
Lu Chen seemed to hear the primal howl.
Meanwhile, more star beasts rushed to assist.
The remaining Justice Hunters no longer outnumbered the star beasts.
No ships, no supplies, like drowning dogs among piranhas—death was certain.
Quindi Augs shed his battered armor, donned oversized alloy gauntlets, and his crest became a sharp blade.
“Who do you think we are? We’re the Hundred Thousand New Era! Everyone hides inside the giant kun’s belly, then immediately inflates airbags. Life or death is in the hands of fate.”
“Yes!”
Just as Augs led the group into the kun’s mouth, the kun suddenly bit down—
Blood splattered across the starry sky!
Lu Chen’s scalp tingled.
He didn’t believe Augs would survive this.
After delivering the final blows to his enemies, Lu Chen began scavenging the nearby space for loot.
Unfortunately, his treasure map showed no targets nearby.
After the Justice Hunters and Wolf Fang fleets were defeated, the star beasts scattered, pursuing fleeing ships.
Time pressing, Lu Chen piloted the ship and swiftly withdrew from the battle center, chasing a giant platypus.
This platypus was pursuing a single adventurer ship—the only one being chased by a star beast.
For Lu Chen, this platypus was the perfect target:
Psychic level: 43.
Uninjured, intact.
Chasing one level-forty adventurer ship, far from other star beasts, unlikely to be rescued.
Once the platypus caught the ship and they engaged, the Leonin could launch a surprise attack.
Lu Chen deactivated stealth temporarily, approached Gloria’s recliner, and tugged her ear.
“Wake up! We’re going ashore soon to hunt that platypus!”
Gloria covered her ears, groggy but awakened, watching the platypus on the screen, recalling their miserable hunt for the Thunder Stingray.
“Killing it’s easy, but capturing a level-forty-three star beast alive is tough!”
Lu Chen showed her three huge syringes.
“These are star beast tranquilizers, but no launcher. I’ll get off the ship and inject it manually—you cover me.”
Gloria was stunned, reluctant to cover, wanting to be the main fighter.
“You’re good at injecting star beasts? It’s a male beast, you know.”
“…”
Lu Chen was speechless.
“I’m good at injecting any animal, regardless of species or gender!”
Ellie covered her ears, trembling silently.
As the Leonin neared the platypus, stealth was no longer necessary.
The platypus had caught up with the adventurer ship and suddenly opened its huge mouth and bit down.
Everyone was shocked.
“Platypus mouths can bite ships?”
Lu Chen was dumbfounded.
The platypus bit into the ship, shaking its head wildly.
Lu Chen closed in and saw clearly: the platypus’s mouth was full of sharp teeth, piercing the adventurer ship’s hull…
Especially two large tusks shaped like rat teeth—long and sharp.
These tusks had pierced and locked onto the ship!
Seeing the ship about to give out, Lu Chen grabbed the three giant syringes, headed to the rear cabin, and donned armor.
“Gloria, it’s our turn.”
He got off the ship early and activated stealth.
Gloria, somewhat helpless, drew her sword and disembarked to draw fire.
Ellie piloted the Leonin, moving away from the battle zone to provide distant cover.
Lu Chen circled the platypus’s huge black beak in stealth.
Since the platypus still bit the adventurer ship tightly, its open beak left a gap.
Lu Chen stealthily approached and tossed one syringe into the platypus’s mouth.
Then he distanced himself.
A laser shot shattered the syringe inside the platypus’s mouth.
Instantly, a large amount of tranquilizer dispersed into the platypus’s esophagus…
The platypus sneezed instinctively!
The sudden blast expelled the ship and sent Lu Chen’s armor rolling, flung far away.
Most tranquilizer was expelled…
Fortunately, Gloria seized the moment.
She leapt onto the platypus’s back.
With both hands gripping her sword, she stabbed down!
She pierced its skin and fur.
Blood appeared instantly!
The platypus thrashed its wings wildly, rolling and generating a shockwave.
Lu Chen arrived in time and threw another tranquilizer syringe to Gloria.
She withdrew her sword with her left hand, held the giant syringe with her right, and injected the tranquilizer forcefully into the wound.
This shot went straight to its soul!
The platypus flailed a few times then went still.
Gloria jumped onto the syringe’s tail, standing proudly, shouting triumphantly:
“Ha! Another victory for me!”
Meanwhile, the injured adventurer ship patched its bitten hull with great effort.
On the Leonin’s big screen, a video from that adventurer ship appeared.
The video showed the twin sisters.
“Oh my, it’s the Leonin!”
“The Leonin saved us.”
“Wow, it’s Ellie! We work for Crazy Little Sun People Live Broadcast Company!”
No wonder they only sent one star beast after you!
Lu Chen immediately forwarded the video to the armored cockpit.
“Stop broadcasting and get out of here!”
The twin sisters, still shaken, felt safe seeing Captain Lu Chen, a legend on the Dawn Route.
“This place is still dangerous. We can’t abandon the Leonin. We’ll stick with Captain Lu Chen!”
Quite shameless…
Lu Chen put on a stern face.
“Leave now or I’ll charge a rescue fee. Saving your whole ship’s crew for ten thousand spirit stones isn’t unreasonable.”
Before he finished, the livestream ship sped away.
Lu Chen didn’t mind.
Thanks to that livestream ship, he’d easily subdued the level-forty-three platypus.
Charging a rescue fee without warning is extortion and widely despised.
Later, Lu Chen and Gloria tied up the platypus firmly atop the ship.
It looked as if the platypus had captured the Leonin and was chasing along, possibly avoiding aid from other star beasts.
Lu Chen and Gloria returned to the cabin, excited.
Leaning on his shoulder, Gloria swaggered arrogantly, like a big sister leading a younger brother.
“You looked so dashing being blown away by that platypus’s sneeze. Now you know who to rely on in a crisis.”
Lu Chen awkwardly cleared his throat, ignoring her.
It was indeed a bit embarrassing…
At the cockpit, with a wave of his hand, he ordered:
“Full speed ahead to the nearest supply planet.”
Ellie asked curiously:
“Captain, since the platypus is only unconscious, not injured, wouldn’t selling it to Beast Paradise fetch double the price?”
Lu Chen shook his head, smiling.
“We snuck in illegally. Beast Paradise will likely slash the price or even confiscate the platypus and forcibly escort us out.”
He stretched lazily, sitting at the leisure table and lifting the tea Ellie prepared.
“After landing on the supply planet, I want to wake it and try communicating with it!”
Ellie frowned, sensing the captain’s plan.
Just then—
“Captain, radar has detected a biological signal.”
Tea poised at his lips, Lu Chen was startled.
“A biological signal?”
After a quick analysis, Ellie’s face went pale.
“It’s the platypus… Its beast core and bloodline are frozen, but its soul is still conscious!”
Is that even possible?
Lu Chen quickly stood and strode to Ellie’s side.
“Hurry, decode it!”
Ellie analyzed rapidly and deciphered the beast’s language.
“It says… their leader wants to talk to you.”
