Swallowing the Stars Starts with the Brewing Master

Chapter 224: Signal for help
The Shattered Sands Star Sea is the only place Chu He can pass through on his way from the Jiuhua Star Region to the Zhuyue Star Region.

It is said that when Virtual Universe Corporation opened its fifth battlefield, it encountered fierce resistance here. Eventually, the senior executives of Virtual Universe Corporation arrived and shattered all the planets in the entire large star system into pieces.

Meteor belts of varying sizes are scattered throughout this enormous galaxy, which is nearly a million light-years in diameter.

Whoosh!
The spaceship sped through a meteorite belt.

"Huh? There's a human realm master squad." Redstone glanced at the screen on the arm guard.

In extraterritorial battlefields, with virtual universes and military systems in place, humans can certainly display each other's locations.

Once the consciousness remains connected to the virtual universe and the military system is activated, the system will display the coordinates of all comrades and allies within a range of 10 billion kilometers.

In addition to displaying coordinates, it can also call for help in times of crisis, and all humans and allies within a range of billions of kilometers will receive the distress signal.

Of course, there are also other supplementary functions such as contacting superiors and calculating military merits.

At this moment, a green dot signal appeared on the star map on the Redstone Armguard screen, about 5 million kilometers away from them.

“That’s normal.” White Wolf glanced at the screen on the arm guard and explained nonchalantly, “Most of the realm lord teams that are not strong enough to risk their lives in the Zhuyue Starfield will choose to stay in this Shattered Sand Star Sea.”

"Over time, this place has become a relatively suitable location for the World Lord's squad to fight on the fifth battlefield, so it's normal to find the coordinates of comrades and allies."

Niu Jiao patted Hong Shi on the shoulder and laughed loudly, "Don't worry, with the captain here, we're perfectly safe."

Redstone nodded, listening to his older brother, Horned Kane, explain the basics to him.

Although only the human race, the demon race, the insect race, and the machine race share borders on the battlefield outside the domain.

This extraterritorial battlefield is primarily a battleground for the clans of these four major powers.

But besides these, the human side not only has its own warriors, but also powerful individuals from other races who are dependent on humans.

The same applies to the other three races.

Numerous vassal clans, who usually enjoy the protection of the top clans, naturally send their strongest members to participate in this extraterritorial battlefield.

Moreover, the Prison Clan and the Crystal Clan, two of the most powerful clans, as well as some other powerful clans, also choose to send their strongest members to the outer battlefields for training.

"However, haha! We humans have a virtual universe system, which is much more convenient than other races." Bull Horn laughed heartily.

Chu He couldn't help but nod and say, "Niu Jiao is right. The virtual universe is indeed a great advantage for humanity."

"The technology of the Machine Race is indeed powerful, but it is extremely difficult to build an internal communication network that covers the Fifth Battlefield."

"As for the demon race and the insect race... they can only divide up areas for simple information transmission."

"The difference is just too great."

As they were talking, Chuhe suddenly let out a soft "Eh".

"Haha, look, what I said came true. This is a target that the spaceship's detector just discovered. It's of average strength, and we should be able to take it down."

Swish!
Chu He waved his hand, and a light screen was projected into the air above the lounge.

On the screen, a group of alien creatures with crocodile-like heads, standing 6-8 meters tall, with thick limbs, tails covered in scales, and black tortoise shells on their backs, were traveling in a spaceship toward Chu He and his companions.

White Wolf's eyes lit up: "It's a Chi Yong clan member from the Zerg side, a flesh-and-blood being. Captain, what do you say? Shall we take them on?"

“It’s the Chi Yong clan, known for their fierceness and bloodthirstiness…” Guangyi raised his head. “Captain, I’ll listen to you. If your judgment is sound, I’ll go with you!”

“That’s right! I see that the Chi Yong Clan members on the screen are at best Immortal Army Lord level. With the captain here, we can definitely handle them!” Niu Jiao nodded in agreement.

"Alright, let's do it! I'll join in this time too. You guys just need to stay alive and keep the enemy occupied." After giving his instructions, Chu He then ordered the spaceship, "Turn around and move towards the target!"

In the vast expanse of space, the E9-class spaceship traced an arc to the right, bypassing several meteorite fragments with diameters of nearly 10,000 kilometers, before landing on a massive meteorite near its target trajectory.

Until the Chi Yong Clan's spaceship approached within 10 kilometers...

The detectors showed that the Chi Yong Clan's spaceship was still flying along its course, without any sign of changing course.

"The detectors used by this Chiyong tribe team are of poor quality; they haven't detected us yet!"

The team members burst into strange laughter.

There was a wealthy and powerful captain who bullied the alien race by relying on his advanced detection equipment...

It's so awesome!

"I can detect you, but you can't detect me. That's a huge advantage!"

The golden-haired ape-man was clearly restless, scratching his head and asking, "Captain, what kind of detector is this? I've never seen it before, and I can't even find any information about it on the virtual universe network..."

"I reckon... even an immortal at the Marquis level couldn't buy it, right?"

Chu He just smiled and didn't reply.

Marquis?

To put it simply, even a king might not have such a detector.

At this moment, Chuhe's small detector was also activated.

The reason why these small detectors can be sold at the same price as, or even more expensive than, large detectors is mainly because they have signal shielding capabilities.

Now, all detection signals within a 2-kilometer radius of their spacecraft have been blocked.

If the enemy's large-scale long-range detectors don't reach the trillions level, they simply won't be able to detect them!
Beside her, Snow Fairy couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle as she watched Golden Retriever's greedy expression.

"Captain, you really are amazing!"

"If you hadn't already been an immortal when you joined the army, I would have considered you a core member of the five major powers..."

"Yes, it has to be the highest grade!"

"Hahahaha!" Chu He waved his hand, just laughed, but didn't say a word.

That was his intention in faking immortality.

Even if he were discovered by the immortals of other races, they would be misled by fixed mindsets, just like the Snow Demon and the others, and would not associate him with his original identity.

"Hehehe!" Green Blade grinned sinisterly. "With the captain's detector, we can fight whenever we want!"

"If you're confident, just go for it. Even if you encounter a strong opponent, you can quietly bypass them."

A seemingly indifferent wind blade was now equally excited: "From now on, even in the perilous battlefields beyond the domain, I can finally get a good night's sleep."

"Alright, alright, we should go now." Chu He's smile faded.

He was bound to leave the team eventually.

Moreover, the closer you are to the Zhuyue Starfield, the sooner this day will come.

At that time, this small team...

"Never mind, let's give them some extra lessons during this time," Chu He sighed.

next moment.

"Everyone obey orders!"

"Wait a minute, I'll try a sneak attack first. If it works, then you can go in!"

"Do you understand?"

"Understood!" everyone answered in unison, their expressions serious.

With a major battle about to begin, people will naturally stop laughing and joking.

Chu He was the first to leave the spaceship, followed closely by the eight Realm Lords and their legions.

The group stood on this small fragment of a star, a hundred miles in diameter, watching the spaceship approaching them.

Chu He flashed and arrived hundreds of kilometers away from the spaceship, his Shocking Calamity Blade blading with light!
"boom!"

The extremely concentrated blade light instantly struck the spaceship hundreds of kilometers away!

Click!

A deafening roar, as if space itself were shattering, resounded!
Just as the blade and the spaceship intersected, a white light spread out like a spider web and then rapidly expanded.

That void, amidst the strange tremors of the white sword light, twisted and collapsed violently like a deflated balloon!
Inside the spaceship, even though three Chi Yong clan immortals blocked most of the attacks, several realm lords were still instantly annihilated by the blade light caused by the spatial collapse.

This strike was Chu He's strongest strike in recent times, combining the final move of the "Suspended Mirror" with his understanding of the "Spatial Strangulation" technique on the Shocking Calamity Blade.

"Damn it! It's a human!"

"It's an immortal god of humanity! Get out!" "No!"

The scales on the three Chi Yong clan immortals shattered. Two of them were still able to hold on, but the weaker one was torn apart instantly without even seeing Chu He's face!
The towering, immortal dragon whose body had been torn apart was about to transform its body into immortal divine power and reassemble itself, but it was completely annihilated by the subsequent spatial collapse.

"Without immortality, you wouldn't even last a single round against me." Chu He shook his head slightly. "With that kind of strength, you're not even qualified to stay and brew wine."

The Immortal Army Lord has not yet fully integrated every cell of his body into his immortality.

The spatial collapse caused by a single strike completely obliterated the immortal being.

All that remained were the numerous items scattered after the Sky World Ring shattered.

After collecting the spoils, Chu He swung his sword, and twelve Azure Sea Tide Mirrors faintly enveloped the entire battlefield.

"How is this possible! How can the Law of Water be so strong! There's no way to escape!"

"Damn it, Hoffman died instantly, but that human was granted the title of Marquis and became immortal!"

The remaining two immortal Chi clan members were filled with despair.

boom!
boom!
With two consecutive strikes, he killed both immortals!

Chuhe sheathed his sword and silently observed the entire arena.

Now that their victory was assured, he naturally disdained to take action to kill the Realm Lord and compete with his own team members for military merit.

After observing that their captain had killed three immortals with just a few strikes, White Wolf, Bull Horn, and the others were all extremely excited. They laughed and transmitted their voices while fighting, praising their captain's swordsmanship.

Chu He simply smiled in response.

How could a few ordinary immortals possibly survive under the influence of the powerful treasure, the Shocking Calamity Blade, and his profound understanding of the laws that had brought him to the level of a Marquis-level immortal?

"Master, the military merit has been confirmed," the intelligent computer reminded.

"Oh?" Chu He looked down at the screen on his arm guard.

On the human side, a connection to the [Virtual Universe Network] is required during combat.

Only in this way can the battle be monitored in real time and military merits be determined immediately.

"60 billion military merits?" Chu He nodded slightly. "It seems that these three Chi Yong clan immortals have been recognized by the virtual universe system as having the strength of ordinary immortal military lords."

"However, although you were a bit weak, you died a worthy death to be my first military achievement."

"Haha, our first battle in this Shattered Sand Star Sea has been a resounding victory!" Bull Horn laughed heartily as he flew over. "Captain, you're too strong!"

"That felt great, so great!"

Chu He waved his hand, looked at the people still on the battlefield, and ordered, "Quickly clean up the battlefield, we need to leave immediately."

Seeing that the battlefield was almost cleaned up, Chu He waved his hand and released the spaceship.

"Quick, get on the spaceship!" Chu He said repeatedly. "The reinforcements for the extraterrestrial battlefield will arrive soon. It's time to go."

The group quickly boarded the spaceship and flew into the depths of space.

Moments later, several alien groups arrived in this part of the starry sky. After a brief reconnaissance and discovering scattered corpses, they shook their heads and dispersed.

In the frequent battles on foreign battlefields, very few are actually able to receive rescue from allies.

Faced with an extremely high probability of death, these powerful individuals from various races had long been accustomed to such a situation.

……

Inside the lounge.

Niu Jiao picked up the wine bottle and glass, quickly poured a glass of fruit wine for Chu He, and poured one for himself as well.

"Hahahaha!" Ox Horn raised his glass high. "Come on, let's drink to our mighty captain!"

"Haha..." Guangyi laughed and raised his glass to look at Chuhe. "I only knew that the captain was strong before, but I didn't expect that the captain could be this strong!"

Everyone raised their glasses, smiles spreading across their faces.

Chuhe laughed heartily and raised his wine glass.

To be honest, Chuhe is quite satisfied with this group of teammates.

After being trained by himself, his strength should be among the top of the realm lord generals, and he is also very experienced and has a very forthright personality.

However, Chu He knew that he would eventually leave.

Having met, he didn't mind offering some help to everyone in the Xuanming Squad.

After all, it's a squad named after themselves.

So, in the subsequent search for the enemy, Chuhe continued to answer his teammates' questions and provide guidance.

His actions earned him immense gratitude from his teammates.

For a lone traveler, it's not easy to find a teacher to guide their practice...

Who wouldn't cherish it!

Half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

After another battle, in the spaceship's lounge.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this trip with the captain has been very fruitful!"

"That's comparable to more than ten trips I've taken with the legion before!"

Everyone was all smiles as they tallied their spoils.

Suddenly, a distress message came from the virtual universe network!
"Help! Help! We've encountered a squad of alien races led by a Marquis-level expert from the demon race!"

"There are three enemies in total: one high-ranking marquis and two high-ranking immortal military lords!"

This distress message was sent directly to all allies and comrades within a radius of 10 billion kilometers through the military merit system.

Chuhe and his team also received a copy.

"A high-ranking title of Marquis?" Chu He's heart stirred.

As long as he kills the enemy alone, wouldn't he have completed the military merit quota assigned to him by the military system?
"It's an elite squad of World Lords from our human race!" Chu He glanced at the screen on his arm guard and said quickly, "The enemy consists of Marquis-level high-ranking soldiers and two high-ranking Immortal Military Lords. I plan to go and help them."

Chuhe looked at the rest of the team.

"If you're not strong enough, just go back."

Hearing Chu He's serious and earnest words, White Wolf was suddenly taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"Are you leaving?" Bull Horn's voice was no longer bold; it was low and deep.

"Are you leaving?" Guangyi stretched out his hand, then let it fall slumped down.

The snow demon opened its mouth, as if to say something, but then remained silent.

Windblade opened his eyes, Redstone lowered his head, Golden Hair stroked his chin, and Green Blade also put away his short sword.

The team members all looked at Chu He with complicated expressions.

Although they were all very reluctant to part with their captain, they had all guessed what was going on...

It's impossible for a powerful person of this level to keep them with them indefinitely.

It's just a pity that the time was too short.

Chu He nodded slightly: "Yes, I'm leaving. The Xuanming Squad... I'll leave it to you."

"If there's a chance in the future..."

"Captain, go!" White Wolf stretched. "Your decision is right."

"Taking us along is a waste of your time when dealing with the weak. But when dealing with the strong, we will only become a burden to you."

"Haha, no matter what, I, Niujiao... was once a soldier under the captain." Niujiao laughed, "I will remember the captain."

"Why are you all so somber!" Snow Fairy's alluring voice rang out. "Anyway, we all have the captain's virtual universe number..."

As she spoke, Xue Yao turned to Chu He and said, "Captain, when you return to the barracks, remember to contact us."

"Of course," Chu He nodded with a smile.
