This villain is too popular.

Chapter 83 Star Monument
boom--!
Four loud bangs followed.

Four obelisks, entirely black with complex, blood-red patterns flowing across their surfaces, suddenly tore through the clouds.

Like four javelins thrown by the gods, they pierced heavily into the near-shore beaches surrounding the Ember Base.

And after these four obelisks landed.

A peculiar high-frequency humming sound immediately and silently spread in all directions.

Before long, the once calm sea around the Ember Base began to churn.

The Starchildren in the base were also affected by this peculiar sound, exhibiting varying degrees of abnormality.

"Heavenly Dao... My star core is restless."

Chen Xing pressed hard on the hilt of the demon sword at his waist, forcibly pushing the blade, which had already automatically unsheathed half an inch, back into place.

"Well!"

The starlight in the mirror's pale purple vertical pupils was flickering uncontrollably, and the dream pillow beneath her, which had been hovering steadily, suddenly began to sway, as if it were drunk.

Immediately afterwards, her body went limp, and she almost fell headfirst off the Dream Pillow.

Fortunately, Tiandao stepped in and caught her shoulder in time, preventing her from falling to the ground.

"."

Tiandao looked in a certain direction outside the base, his expression somewhat solemn.

Although the effects of the [Star Monument] were somewhat anticipated.

However, he seemed to underestimate the impact of this thing on the 'Star Beasts' and 'Children of the Stars'.

"Ahhhh——!"

Just as Chen Xing and the others were wondering why they were feeling this inexplicable discomfort,

From the crowd, one of the Star Children suddenly roared.

Immediately afterwards, some unusual things happened to his body.

His body hunched uncontrollably, and his back split open with a 'rip', growing out numerous sharp blades that emitted a kind of insect-like oily green sheen.

The sharp blades intersected as they tore through his uniform on his back.

Before long, it formed a single, unique blade wing, as thin as a cicada's wing.

In addition to the strange blade-like wing on his back, two green tentacles suddenly grew from his forehead.

After numerous green patterns appeared on its arms, they were covered with a layer of light green insect carapace and grew long, narrow, sharp blades similar to the forelegs of a praying mantis.

“Sak!”

I noticed something unusual about this star child.

One of the Star Children quickly stepped forward, intending to have him calm down his 'Star Core Thousand Blade Mantis' and stop it from 'mutating' any further.

However, Sack, who has fallen into the 'star core rampage', has completely lost his mind.

Seeing his companion suddenly approaching, Sak slashed out with the single blade on his back.

It looked as if it were about to be cut in two.

The Son of the Stars was clearly caught off guard by this sudden attack.

In addition, Sak, ranked No. 11 in the Star Ranking, has a core called Thousand Blade Mantis, which is known for its speed and sharpness.

This led to the Son of the Stars facing a sudden attack from Sack.

Aside from seeing a cold glint of light rushing towards him, he had no time to react effectively.

Ding!
At the critical moment, Tiandao suddenly teleported in front of him and grasped Sak's Blade Wing with one hand.

Look at Sak, whose face is contorted with rage and whose eyes are filled with madness.

The Heavenly Dao spoke coldly.

"Calm down, Sack. Don't let the Star Core control you. Remember, you are a human, not a beast."

That being said, Sak, who was now completely enraged, was clearly not listening to anything.

Ignoring the advice of the Heavenly Dao, he suddenly raised his mantis arm, which had completely turned into a blade, and slashed at the Heavenly Dao's waist with ferocious force.

In response, Tiandao's figure instantly transformed into a blur and appeared behind him.

boom--!
Amidst the cracking sound of the ground, Tiandao pressed down on the back of Sak's head with one hand, slamming him heavily into the hard concrete ground in front of him. He then pressed down on the single bladed wing on Sak's back with one knee, preventing it from harming anyone.

Not only that, Tiandao also twisted his two mantis-like arms behind his back, gripping the center of their intertwined wrists with his left hand, completely subduing the irrational man. Even so, the bloodied Sack continued to struggle frantically.

Unfortunately, his power was still too weak for the Heavenly Dao to break free from its control.

"Liu Li."

Upon hearing Tiandao call her name, Jing Liuli, who had been stunned for a long time, immediately came to her senses.

She flew to the Heavenly Dao's side on her Dream Pillow and said nervously, "Heavenly Dao, speak, what is it?"

"Let this idiot get some sleep."

"Good, good."

Jing Liuli stretched out her hands, and several dreamlike purple light butterflies flew out from the cuffs of her pajamas, sprinkling some purple fluorescent powder on Sack's face.

A moment later, affected by the 'Dream Spirit Powder', the madness in Sack's eyes gradually faded, and he finally closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

As his consciousness faded, the physical mutation caused by 'Star Core Rampage' on Sack's body slowly disappeared, and he returned to normal.

Seeing this, Tiandao stood up and shook his wrist.

He then looked at the unfortunate fellow who had almost been killed by Sack and said, "You, come here and carry this idiot back to the core area of ​​the underground base. Then stay inside with him and don't come out casually."

"There is a high-level star energy shield placed there by the doctor, which can isolate the influence of the [Star Monument] from the outside, thus preventing him and you from falling into the star core berserk state."

"Oh, okay, okay."

Upon hearing this, the Star Child, who had been saved by the Heavenly Dao and escaped death, immediately picked up Sack and ran quickly towards the underground base.

After resolving the unexpected incident, Tiandao stood up and looked around at the other Star Children.

Although among the current Star Children, only Sack has gone berserk because he cannot control the star core within his body.

But this doesn't mean he's the only one facing this problem.

Because every Star Child who completes the Star Core Surgery is essentially a half-human, half-star beast being.

It is a true little monster.

Apart from Sack and his companions who left, and DustSky, the bottom-ranked star in the Stellar No. 36 constellation.

The remaining Star Children on the field are all among the top ten in the Star Project.

However, among this group of exceptionally talented little monsters, quite a few began to exhibit symptoms similar to Sack's star core rampage.

Some of them had ferocious expressions, as if they were fighting against something.

Some were sweating profusely, clearly indicating that their willpower was nearing its limit.

Upon seeing this, Tiandao immediately said in an unquestionable tone: "Except for Kong, all the other Star Academy students ranked after fifth, like Sack, should hide in the core area of ​​the base."

“Your presence here will not only be of no help, but will also be a hindrance.”

"Yes"

"Good, good."

There were no inquiries, no questions.

All the Star Children ranked after fifth place have taken action.

This is their absolute trust in and absolute obedience to the Way of Heaven.

After all the Star Children ranked below fifth left.

The remaining Star Children around Tiandao are: NO.2. Chenxing, NO.3. Jing Liuli, NO.5. Yeshen Lin, and finally NO.36. Chenkong.

Seeing this, Tiandao rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

"Sigh, if only Caroline were here. Her [Celestial Base Station] could effectively shield [Star Core Resonance] within a 100-meter radius."

"While this won't completely eradicate the root cause of these idiots' problems, it won't force them to hide in the core area and waste so much of their combat power."

Upon hearing this, Jing Liuli, who had recovered and overcome the Star Core Resonance, immediately asked like a curious child, "Heavenly Dao, what is this Star Core Resonance you mentioned?"

The world of astral energy is full of wonders, and astral energy has many unique applications.

The Children of the Stars learned a great deal about stellar energy.

But that doesn't mean they know everything about stellar energy.

Therefore, Jing Liuli was not the only one curious about the [Star Monument] and [Star Core Resonance]; Chen Xing and others nearby were also among them.

The Heavenly Dao didn't keep them in suspense and directly explained to them what the [Star Stele] was and what the [Star Core Resonance] was.
