Zerg Lord of the Devouring Stars

"Owner."

The aloof and powerful Nuolanshan, dressed in a dark green battle suit and with pointed ears, stood respectfully beside Jiang Chen.

"Nolan Mountain." Jiang Chen looked at him with great interest.

Nuolanshan was not enslaved by his soul. There were so many domain lords and realm lords here, and Jiang Chen did not want to expose his ability to enslave others' souls.

Noranshan is in this state because he was captured and implanted with a slave chip, a technology originating from the Machine Race.

Without reaching the level of a domain lord, there is no way to resist.

Ming Yu not only brought slave chips, but the person who brought them was also a domain lord-level powerhouse.

Two domain lords, and not just newly promoted ones, but both powerful domain lords, could easily defeat a ninth-level universe-level being.

And just like that, Nuolanshan was captured and forcibly implanted with a slave chip.

They publicly claimed that Nuolanshan had offended a confidant of the Domain Lord Mingyu, and gave Baihulou appropriate compensation, and that was the end of the matter.

"Damn it! I've been captured and enslaved like this." As a slave, Nuolanshan naturally obeyed Jiang Chen's orders, but deep down he still longed for freedom.

"Once I become the domain lord, I'll gain freedom, and then everyone will die!"

Nuolanshan bowed his head respectfully, as if he were just an ordinary guard standing beside Jiang Chen.

"Are you alright? Didn't they say that the highest level a slave controlled by a slave chip can reach is the ninth level of the universe? What if he breaks through to the domain lord level? Will something happen to him?" Thor looked around Mount Norlan again and again.

"Why don't we just kill him?" Hong said calmly.

"Yes." Luo Feng nodded in agreement.

Nuolanshan was startled and trembled as she tried to escape, but under the control of the slave chip, she was unable to run away and could only obediently wait in place for her master's orders.

"It's alright, it would be a waste to kill him like this. Don't worry, I have a way," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Nuolanshan has the potential to become a Realm Lord, so killing him would be a waste. A Realm Lord's soul slave is not a waste of a spot.

"Get ready. Once we hand over the items, we'll leave Canglan Star," Jiang Chen said.

Jiang Chen and the others first went to the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance headquarters to hand over the items needed for the "Trainee Mercenary Assessment".

Although they didn't get enough Windhorn Stones in Wind and Thunder Canyon, they managed to kill several raiding teams within the interdimensional world and obtain Windhorn Stones from their belongings.

With enough items, he was able to deliver them and became a trainee mercenary in the universe.

"Haha, we've become cosmic apprentice mercenaries too."

"Yes, I want to become a true mercenary of a one-star universe in the future."

"However, that's something that will happen after we become cosmic-level."

"Let's leave first. There are too many powerful people here. If we stay too long, trouble might arise."

"Yes, we're heading back to Earth."

Jiang Chen and his group quickly went to the planet's docking port, retrieved their spaceship, and left Canglan Star.

"10, 9, 8 —————-3, 2, 1! Space travel!"

The spaceship trembled slightly, then began to maintain a speed of 1.2 times the speed of light in the dark universe, rapidly moving forward in the designated direction.

Inside the spacecraft control room.

The bodyguards and servants have been ordered to rest, leaving only the people from Earth here.

Jiang Chen, Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, Mohandsen, East, Jia Yi, Tripati, Sokolov.

They stood excitedly in the spaceship's control room, beginning to distribute their respective spoils.

"Same as always, eldest brother, second brother, you each take 40 billion cosmic coins." Luo Feng and the others were distributing their spoils.

Hong shook his head and said, "This time it was all thanks to your efforts alone. Your second brother and I just wandered around in the inner world, so accepting this money is indeed—"

Thor shook his head, "Too many, too few for us."

Luo Feng did not hesitate and directly transferred 40 billion cosmic coins to Hong and Thor respectively.

"We'll split it too," Mohandson said with a smile. "Let me calculate, each of us will get 15 billion cosmic coins."

"it is good."

"Haha, okay, we'll stop talking then."

Jia Yi, East, Tripati, and Sokolov nodded, having received a notification from the virtual network email.

"I'll add my share too, everyone gets a piece of the action," Jiang Chen said with a smile, operating through Hill.

"Luo Feng, you have received a remittance of 20 billion cosmic coins."

"Master, you have received an email."

Luo Feng, Hong, Lei Shen, Jia Yi, Mohanderson, and the other two all lowered their heads to check their emails.

To their astonishment, they discovered that all eight of them had each received a remittance of 20 billion cosmic coins.

"No, this is all yours, there's no need to share it with us," Luo Feng said, shaking his head.

"Yes, you got it yourself, there's no need for that." Thor nodded in agreement.

"This—I don't deserve it, it's too much." Hong shook his head.

"I'm the one who sent you all here to participate in the Space Trainee Mercenary Assessment. We've all taken a risk together," Jiang Chen said with a smile. "Besides, I've gained the most this time, so this is just small change for me."

"We should share both good times and bad times."

"Yes, it's just a small amount." Luo Feng nodded as well. "Our main business is those treasures; these universe coins are just a tiny, insignificant part."

"Yes." Mohanderson nodded as well.

"By the way, these are five sets of secret techniques from the Thunder lineage. Put them in these intelligent light brains." Jiang Chen flipped his hand, and five auxiliary light brains floated above him. He then threw these five auxiliary light brains to Thor.

"Second brother, each auxiliary computer has a set of Thunder Path Secret Techniques."

"Consider this carefully."

Jiang Chen smiled and said, but his eyes were somewhat amused, wondering how Thor would react when he discovered the white-bearded old man.

"The secret technique of Lord Kabu?" Thor first removed all the 'chips' from the five auxiliary light brains, then inserted one of the chips into his own intelligent light brain, closed his eyes, and began to learn that secret technique of thunder.

"But what about our treasures?" Hong asked, frowning. "A single Sky-Slaying Blade is incredibly expensive, and the rest of our treasures combined are worth dozens of times more."

"Yes, if it is discovered that we possess so many treasures, they will definitely be snatched away by domain lords, or even world lords," Mohanderson said in a deep voice.

"Yes, so we need to sell them as soon as possible and turn them into money." Jiang Chen looked at them. "Fifth-tier weapons are generally used by realm lords, so it's more appropriate to sell them for money and then use the money to help ourselves break through."

"How much?" Hong frowned. "These treasures are far too valuable; they might even attract some super-powerful experts."

"We might not only fail to make money by selling the treasure, but also put ourselves in a dangerous situation."

"Yes, how much do we sell it for?" Mohandsen also frowned. The five of them had also exchanged for three treasures.

Three items for five people is simply not enough, and if they haven't crossed the threshold of the fundamental laws of the universe, they can't use a fifth-tier weapon. It would be better for them to use a third-tier weapon.

Luo Feng nodded and smiled: "I understand that principle, but I have a way."

"Merhandsen, Brother Chen, if you can't sell your treasures, you can give them to me. I'll help you sell them. Don't worry, they'll definitely sell."

"Haha, don't worry, there are no handling fees."

"Oh." Mohandsen's eyes lit up, and he nodded. With a flick of his hand, three fifth-tier weapons appeared. The moment the weapons appeared, the entire control room was filled with fluctuations of the primordial laws.

"I believe you, thank you very much, I'm counting on you."

"No problem." Luo Feng quickly put away these fifth-tier Origin Force or Psychic weapons. The weapons were too powerful, and he was still too weak.

"Where's Brother Chen?" Luo Feng asked.

"I don't need it for now. I want to try my method. If it doesn't work, I'll come back to you," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Okay, be careful." Luo Feng nodded.

In fact, all these treasures combined are worth more than the wealth of many realm lords, and are far more valuable than "Eternal Love." With Luo Feng's strength at the Eternal Star level, it is indeed difficult for him to handle them.

One wrong move and you could end up getting burned.

However, after Babata's reminder, he had a solution: to dispose of these treasures through his teacher Huyanbo's account.

Jiang Chen thought of a similar method, but still had some questions, which is why he said he might need Luo Feng's help again.

In the dark universe, the spaceship travels at 1.2 times the speed of light.

It takes about 21 days to travel from the Canglan Star back to Earth.

Inside the control room, Jiang Chen, Luo Feng, and Hong chatted while the others went to rest.

Suddenly, they noticed Thor's eyes widen.

"Second brother?" Hong Xiao looked at him. "Why are your eyes so wide?"

Thor blinked twice and looked at Jiang Chen, Hong, and Luo Feng.

Thor murmured, "Didn't Xiao Fengzi say he received the inheritance of Meteorite Star? It seems I've received all of Lord Kabu's inheritances."

"Huh?" Luo Feng and Hong were both extremely surprised.

Jiang Chen was also happy for Thor.

"I just glanced at those five sets of secret techniques and inserted five chips into each," Thor said in a low voice. "Four of the sets are legitimate secret techniques, but the chip in the fifth set actually contains an intelligence!"

Now Hong and Luo Feng both understood. The AI ​​was most likely "Lord Mist." Luo Feng was familiar with this scenario; that's how he became the successor of Meteorite Star.

However, the master of Meteorite Star is an immortal.

Thor inherited the legacy of a relatively wealthy realm lord.

A world within a world.

After the entire army of adventurers had left, the two Domain Lords and the Realm Lord from the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance entered the Realm Within a Realm and arrived at the ancient castle.

They then breached the castle and entered its interior, but found no treasure.

The internal intelligence has been replaced with auxiliary intelligence, which is not the original intelligent life form, the one that called itself "Lord Mist".

At this moment, the realm lord in black armor hovered in the air, his brows slightly furrowed: "Since that's the case, then let's just forget about it."

"This realm within a realm is a treasure in itself. Notify the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance, Black Dragon Mountain Branch, that this Thunder World ceases to be used as an assessment world."

"I'm going to renovate this realm within a realm. It can become a secret training location for our alliance."

"Yes, sir," the two domain lords replied respectfully.

The black-clad realm lord hovered in the air and suddenly stretched out his hands.

Suddenly, the world went dark, and the power of the universe's origin surged forth from the foundation of the realm within a realm, beginning a new great transformation.
