Chapter 459 Star Body
Rainy nights, suburbs, ruins, crystal clusters, angel tentacles—and a small advertisement from an angel-fighting expert.
Mo Ran felt that he must have drunk some strong liquor to see such an outrageous combination in the rain.
But soon she rubbed her eyebrows and told herself with reason that this was not an illusion.
It was the "expert" who was talking to him - he should still be on the distant capital planet at this time, but it was obvious that this powerful "angel hunter" used some... disturbing "tricks" to contact the Shuji Star far away on the border.
He took over the body of the angel he had killed.
Mo Ran took a deep breath, and for a moment she had a strange thought in her heart: "Who is more scary, the Dark Angel or the Angel Hunter?" But she calmed down, took another half step forward, and tried to adjust her expression. She bowed deeply to the crystals with an attitude of welcoming the great immortal: "Mo Ran greets Mr. Yu. I didn't know you were here. We were very rude just now. Mo Ran apologizes to you on their behalf... But what are you doing?"
Then she saw the tentacles beside the crystal began to twist and turn in a mess, as if they wanted to express something but failed. Then a new glimmer of light moved in the crystal cluster. After a while, new words finally appeared: "Wait a minute, I'm not familiar with this... It's okay, it's me who scared you all of a sudden... I just came to check on the situation here and see if I can help. I talked to Yuan Ling and the others about Shu Ji today, and they are very worried about you."
Mo Ran was startled, with a somewhat strange feeling in his heart, but he quickly calmed down and lowered his head meticulously: "Mo Ran thanks all the senior immortals. Shu Ji has suffered such a disaster, and the current situation... is indeed not good. Mo City is still stable at the moment. We were not invaded by the 'main whisker' of the derivative star body until the end, but other cities were more or less damaged in the previous 'ascension'..."
The "perception" from a distant alien planet resonates with his own will in some indescribable way. With the help of this "resonance", Yu Sheng's mind wanders in this huge and unfamiliar new "body". He curiously feels the various feedbacks conveyed to him by this incredible "body", while trying to distinguish those tiny voices that are almost drowned in the huge torrent of information.
The rain is falling, the clouds are rising and falling, plants are growing, people are moving around in the city, lava is flowing underground, some people are dying, some are being born, some are digging out the crystals that have invaded the city, and Mo Ran is talking to himself...
Yu Sheng tried hard to adapt to all this and feel all this.
He thought of the first time he tried to control that "valley", but the feeling coming from Shuji was not quite the same as that alien valley. He felt that his current situation was closer to the state when he was synchronized with the Alien Hotel - he had a brand new body, not just a "territory" under his control.
Is this the perspective of the derived star? Or... the "mother vine"?
Yu Sheng's thoughts flowed in the scorching core of the earth, and every thought was like lightning, stirring in the crystal roots that ran through the entire planet like veins. He saw tiny sparks stirring between the crystal branches buried deep in the rocks and soil, and in the process, his perception of Shuji became clearer and more accurate.
But at the same time, he felt an inexplicable... "slowness", which was the sluggish feeling in the flow of consciousness, as if every thought needed a little bit of weird delay before it could "take shape". At first, he thought it was because he had not fully adapted, but after a while he realized that it was because of the "hugeness".
Even if thoughts flow through the "star body" at the speed of light, the time required for each cluster of "sparks" to traverse a neural node can almost be described as "long".
So Yu Sheng tried to extract his "main consciousness" from the silence and only retain the perception function of the planet. All of a sudden, his thinking became clear and agile again.
How interesting.
Although he was still not sure what the exact principle was, Yu Sheng had already more or less adapted to those unclear things in life. He quickly accepted the situation with a broad mind (to be honest, he was very broad-minded now, as the diameter of Shuji's center of the earth was thousands of kilometers), and turned his attention to Mo Ran's communication with him, as well as his perception of the situation deep in Shuji.
Mo Ran lowered his head, waiting for Mr. Yu's response with extreme nervousness.
She just subconsciously said a lot of things, about Shuji's future, about Mocheng's current situation, and about many things that she was worried about. Now that she thinks about it, many of these things should not be told to Mr. casually, as that would probably only make him feel irritated.
She felt that she was a little young and reckless after all.
Mo Ran raised her eyes slightly and saw that several retainers and bodyguards had consciously retreated to the side and set up a formation to prevent anyone from intruding on the communication between her and Mr. Yu. Now she was the only one next to the living crystal.
For who knows how many times in his life, Mo Ran lamented in his heart - he really didn't want to go to this crappy class.
But I can't leave.
The surface of the crystal flickered, and this time, a vague human figure gradually emerged from the flickering light.
Mo Ran suddenly became even more tense, and this time he didn't even dare to breathe.
"It sounds like the situation is quite complicated," a distorted voice came from the crystal, the tone was high and low, as if the owner of the voice was still adjusting something, "...I can't help with the details right now, mainly because I'm not very familiar with this new body. If I operate it carelessly, I'm afraid I'll collapse your house or something."
Mo Ran hurriedly said: "Mo Ran doesn't dare to ask for anything..."
"But I can help you with something else," Yu Sheng continued, "You can go and notify Tanyuan, Baicheng, and several nearby cities, and tell them that the geological instability will improve in the near future. Also, the mountain range in the north will not continue to collapse. I will find a way to reconstruct the supporting structure underneath it. I think this can help a little."
He paused for a moment and then explained, "I originally wanted to go and tell them directly, but seeing your reaction just now... I'm afraid that if I show up directly, they will be scared."
Mo Ran's eyes widened when he heard half of it.
Yu Sheng obviously misunderstood her reaction: "Ah, what's the problem?"
"No, no, no problem," Mo Ran was startled and quickly shook his head, "Mo Ran would like to thank you on behalf of the people of all cities, sir. The two points you just mentioned have already helped us a lot! If you can stop the sky from falling and the earth from collapsing, then we can save half of our worries!"
Yu Sheng became happy, and then he thought for a while and said, "Wait for me to get used to it, and then I'll clean up the crystal debris on the wasteland outside the city for you, and also deal with the cracks that were torn open by the tentacles when they drilled out of the surface... Although this planet is seriously damaged now, I've roughly studied it and it can still be habitable after some repairs."
Mo Ran's expression became a little subtle when he heard this. He felt that what Mr. Yu said was a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.
Yu Sheng didn't notice the subtle change on Mo Ran's face at all.
He has a lot of things going on in his mind right now.
It was the first time that Mo Ran communicated with a living planet like this, and she was extremely nervous.
It was Yu Sheng’s first time as a living planet, and he was actually quite nervous.
The two were so panicked at the same time that they didn't even notice such an obvious thing: "Shuji is now a living planet that can communicate with humans."
After a while, they gradually realized what was going on. Mo Ran was the first to speak tentatively: "Mr. Yu, are you... Shu Ji now?"
Yu Sheng was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and said, "It seems that this is the correct understanding."
Then he came to his senses: "Ah, then if that's the case, I have to tell Yuan Ling and Yuan Hao first...Does this count as occupying the land of Qianfeng Lingshan?"
Mo Ran was also stuck here. He opened his mouth for a long time and uttered a few words: "Count... or not?"
Then the young city lord fairy began to draw the relationship equation in her mind, but after three minutes of drawing, she still couldn't figure it out...
After all, "the Dark Angel ate a planet, and then a person ate the Dark Angel" is too explosive even in the entire universe. If you randomly pick out a detail from the whole process and throw it to the experts and professors at the Terra Academy, it will be enough for them to argue about it for two centuries. How could it be sorted out in such a short time?
"This matter, this matter probably needs to be discussed slowly by the immortals of Qianfeng Lingshan. After all, Shuji as a whole is considered the sect's territory of Qianfeng Lingshan. But Mo Ran thinks... thinks this matter cannot be discussed clearly in a short time," Mo Ran said stutteringly, "and how can you be considered as 'occupying' this place? If you have to count, you are more like the one in the story who turned himself into the universe..."
In fact, Yu Sheng had no idea what Mo Ran meant by “transforming the universe into a body”.
But he could tell that the city lord girl in front of him really couldn't answer his question - if he continued asking, her cold sweat would be heavier than the rain around her.
"Okay, I'll go talk to Yuan Hao and the others later," Yu Sheng waved to Mo Ran in the crystal cluster, "You go ahead and do your work. If you run into any trouble with geological phenomena or anything like that, please contact me and I'll try my best to help."
Mo Ran hurriedly bowed, but seeing that Yu Sheng's figure was about to fade away, she quickly spoke again: "Mr. Yu, how can Mo Ran contact you?"
Obviously, what happened was too weird, and the city lord's mind was a little confused.
Yu Sheng was also a little stunned when he heard it. He raised his hand and pointed at the bottom of his figure: "Call the contact number at the bottom of the screen - if you have 'Border Communications' that would be even better, you can use this number to search for me directly."
Mo Ran: “…Ah, okay.”
Then Yu Sheng disappeared, leaving only a string of numbers on the surface of the crystal cluster shining in front of her.
