Swallowing the Stars: My Comprehension is Beyond the Heavens!

Chapter 142 Space Trainee Mercenary Assessment

Looking at the spatial rift that had already healed, not only Luo Feng and the slaves were surprised.

Babata was also extremely surprised!

To break through space, one must at least reach the level of a Domain Lord!

What did Rorschach do to cut through space?

"Rorschach, how did you do that?"

Babata asked in surprise.

Rorschach flew toward the exploding spaceship and said, "That's how it was done."

He didn't have much time to explain.

The main reason is that this secret method of "creating heaven and earth" was bestowed by the original will of the primordial universe, and it cannot be explained.

Some people escaped after the spaceship exploded.

But out of the 80 stars, only six or seven managed to escape!

The rest all died from Rorschach's sword.

Of course, those who escaped from the spaceship were also seriously injured, and now, flying in the dark space of space, their life force was constantly weakening.

Luo Xia rushed up.

Luo Feng also led the other level-nine slaves of the Eternal Star level to follow.

After a series of attacks, the elite squad that the Nuolanshan family had specially left behind was also wiped out by Luo Xia and his men!

So far!

Even if the Nuolanshan family were to resort to any more tricks, it would be more than two years from now.

After all, it takes at least two years to travel from a natural wormhole.

By then, both Luo Feng's Golden Horned Beast form and Luo Xia's strength will have reached the cosmic level!

Even if Nolanshan himself were to come at that time.

Rorschach was confident he could kill his opponent!

After Luo Xia and his men wiped out the elite squad of the Norlan Mountain family, Pula and his group, who had already returned, received news of the tragic deaths of Tuoleiwu and others.

This message was sent out by the spaceship's AI in the final moments before the explosion.

When Pula and the others heard the news, they looked quite surprised and bewildered.

"How could that be!"

"Tuolei Wu and his group were at least seventh-level experts of the Hengxing realm, and there were eighty of them. How could they have been so easily wiped out?"

"Look! The last images transmitted from the spaceship..."

"This, this is..."

Pra and the others stared in horror at the image showing space being cut open, their bodies trembling.

"The attack can slice through space..." Pula's eyes were filled with fear and relief. "This strength is at least at the Domain Lord level! Could it be that the invincible powerhouse from back then is still alive?!"

He pondered, his face pale.

If that invincible expert is still alive... the Nolan Mountain family is in danger!

"No! I have to tell the teachers right away!"

Pula quickly entered the virtual universe and contacted Yu Ke.

"Pula, what's wrong?"

Yu Ke's virtual image appeared in front of Pula. He looked at Pula, who was trembling with fear, and his expression was somewhat displeased.

"Teacher, Tuoleiwu and the others have been discovered by Earth..."

"Pula said, his voice trembling."

Yu Ke's expression froze for a moment, then he became furious. "Useless! How could you have been discovered so quickly?!"

Pula lowered his head and said, "The other side seems to have detected our subsequent arrangements and deployed various probes in their Heng system in advance. When Tuoleiwu and his group were about to arrive at that inhabited Earth in their spaceship, the other side intercepted them in space..."

Upon hearing this, Yu Ke's expression changed several times, and finally he narrowed his eyes and said:

"Even if they're discovered, it doesn't matter. With Tuoleiwu and the others' strength, they should be able to escape, right? As long as their relationship with our Nuolanshan family isn't exposed, what does it matter if they're discovered?"

He still acknowledged the strength of Tuoleiwu and the others.

Even if a Class C spaceship is discovered, escaping is still quite easy.

But Yu Ke never expected that Tuo Leiwu and the others had been careless.

They thought Earth's defenses were weak and that even if they forced their way in, they wouldn't encounter much resistance.

So from the beginning, they never intended to escape.

Instead, he wanted to eliminate Luo Xia and his group who were blocking his way.

This is because Tuoleiwu thought that if he could kill Luo Xia and his group, then after entering Earth, they could rest easy and search for the inheritance and treasures of the invincible powerhouse.

but……

Who would have thought?

"Teacher..." Pula's voice was hesitant and cautious, "Tolewu and the others are dead..."

Yu Ke Nuolanshan's eyes widened. "What did you say?!"

"Torrev and his men were killed after they were discovered," Pra said.

Yu Ke Nuolanshan frowned and questioned, "How could the people from that inhabited planet possibly have killed Tuo Leiwu and the others?!"

After Luo Feng bought Earth, some of Earth's information was leaked out.

For example, Earth's cosmic coordinates, Earth's population structure, meteorological resources, and so on.

These are all documents that need to be submitted when applying to purchase a planet.

If someone is willing to spend money, they can naturally obtain this information.

Yu Ke and his group spent a large sum of money to obtain some information about Earth from the Imperial government office in Black Dragon Mountain.

From those materials, Yu Ke and Nuolanshan learned that the strongest people on Earth were Luo Feng and Luo Xia, who had already reached the Hengxing level. But how could these two brothers possibly kill Tuo Leiwu and the others with their strength?

You should know that this is an elite squad of eighty people led by Tuo Leiwu!

Each of them is at least at the seventh level of the Hengxing realm!

How can Earth possibly stop or intercept such a powerful elite team?

"Teacher, look. This is the last image that Tuo Leiwu and his crew sent back before their spaceship was destroyed."

Pula played the video.

After reading it, Yu Ke Nuolanshan looked both shocked and angry.

"The attack has cleaved through space..."

His expression was filled with astonishment and disbelief. "How is this possible?! To break through space, one would need at least the strength of a Domain Lord! How could Earth possibly have such a powerful individual?!"

After watching the video, Yu Ke Nuolanshan finally understood how Tuo Leiwu and the others were killed.

Even someone with his cosmic-level past would be certain to die if he couldn't dodge a spatial attack!

This cannot be blamed on Tuoleiwu and his group.

After all, who could have imagined that the opponent's attack could cut through space?

"Teacher, we speculate that the invincible powerhouse who once ruled that life-bearing planet may not have perished as rumored... He might still be alive."

Pula said, her voice trembling slightly.

If such an invincible powerhouse, capable of physically entering the dark universe and turning a vast star field into a void, were still alive, the Nuolanshan family would be in grave danger.

Those kinds of powerful individuals are beyond the capabilities of the Nuolanshan people.

Yu Ke frowned, also considering this possibility.

After all, the news of the "death of the invincible expert" was just a rumor; no one had actually seen the expert's corpse.

"Don't let this get out yet." Yu Ke glanced at Pula and instructed him, then added, "I will go and discuss this with the old clan chief and the clan ancestor. You can return home with peace of mind."

Pula bowed his head and replied, "Yes, teacher..."

He exited the virtual universe.

On the other side, Yu Ke found Elder Dewen and told him what Pula had told him.

Devon was also filled with surprise and uncertainty, and quickly called his ancestor, Norlhan.

At this time, Nuolanshan was thinking about how to make a fortune.

He has been stuck at the ninth level of the cosmic level for a long time and has been unable to break through.

If he had enough wealth, he could invite an immortal expert to guide him, at which point he would be able to break through to the Domain Lord level with a 100% success rate.

This is why Nolan Mountain cares so much about the treasures on Earth.

Once he obtains the treasure of an invincible powerhouse, he will have the money to hire an immortal powerhouse to guide him!

In his view, as long as the strength can be improved.

So what if our family is labeled as space pirates?

As long as he can become the domain lord!

Nuolanshan will only become more prosperous!

At this moment, Nuolanshan suddenly received a call invitation from a younger member of his family. He frowned slightly and then thought: Could it be that they have found the treasure of that invincible expert?

"What's wrong? Devon, Yu Ke?"

He answered the phone, looking calmly at Dewen and Yu Ke.

Dewen and Yu Ke first bowed respectfully, and then Yu Ke began to give his statement.

When Noranshan saw the image of space being cut open, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"So, you're guessing that invincible expert might still be alive?"

Nolanshan's expression made it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Dewen and Yu Ke dared not presume to guess their ancestor's thoughts, and bowed their heads in response, "Yes. After all, only experts at the Domain Lord level or above can perform attacks that can cleave through space..."

"Okay, I understand."

Norlan waved his hand and ordered, "Let Pula and the others return to port. There's no need for any further action."

"Yes, ancestor."

De Wen and Yu Ke accepted the order.

Nuolanshan hung up the phone, then angrily slammed his hand on the armrest beside him, turning the entire seat into dust with his force.

"Is he really still alive?"

"So, our Nolan Mountain has become a stepping stone for that invincible powerhouse to train his disciples?"

In Nolanshan's heart, he also believed that the invincible powerhouse on Earth was not dead.

After all, a star level involves cutting through space and such.

That's absolutely impossible!

……

On Earth, Luo Xia and Luo Feng once again protected the planet, and everyone was overjoyed.

Of course, most of humanity on Earth was unaware of the battle with the cosmic invaders; only governments and leaders of various countries became aware of it through satellites.

Now, they also hold Rorschach, who can cut through space, in great awe.

The days passed by.

Luo Xia and Luo Feng spent another month at home with their families before leaving Earth and flying towards Qiulong Star.

When Rorschach left Earth this time, he took Melissa with him.

Luo Feng also brought two slaves at the ninth level of the Hengxing realm.

One of them was named Ao Gu, a mentalist. He was so thin that he barely had any flesh on his body. This seemed to be a characteristic of their race. No matter what they ate, their bodies remained dry and emaciated.

But their bones are exceptionally hard. According to Ao Gu himself, their bones are two to three times harder than those of ordinary life!

As for the other one named Tie Nanhe, he is a martial artist at the ninth level of the Hengxing star.

Compared to Ao Gu, Tie Nanhe was much taller and stronger. Standing there, he was like an iron wall, giving people a great sense of security.

Luo Xia and Luo Feng brought them along this time to take the assessment for trainee mercenaries in space.

"The assessment of trainee mercenaries in the universe is all conducted in the 'World Lord World'."

"During the assessment, in addition to the various dangers inherent in the Realm Lord's World itself, you will also be threatened by other members participating in the assessment."

"Ambush could happen at any time; someone else might steal the assessment items you've obtained."

In the spaceship's control room, Babata was reading the instructions for the space apprentice mercenary assessment to Rorschach and the others.

"That's why I asked you to bring Melissa, Aogu, and Tie Nanhe. With the three of them around, even if you face a robbery, you'll have a chance to fight back and escape."

Luo Xia and Luo Feng nodded.

Ten days later, they arrived at Qiulong Star.

"Let's go have a meal with Gao Sheng first," Luo Feng said.

They haven't been back for a long time since they left Qiulong Star.

Gao Sheng is currently studying on Qiulong Star under his teacher who is in the energy business. Luo Feng and Luo Xia first had a meal with Gao Sheng and boasted for a while before heading to the headquarters of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance.

This garrison was enormous, comparable to a city.

As Rorschach and his companions stepped inside, they could see all sorts of people chatting and exchanging ideas loudly.

Most of these people are here to register as adventurers.

Luo Xia and his group squeezed through the crowd and it took them almost an hour to complete the registration.

After registering as adventurers, they received a card issued by the Alliance.

"This is an adventure card?" Rorschach examined the adventure card in his hand.

Luo Feng chuckled from the side, "Don't lose it. It's a hassle to replace it. Let's go apply for the Space Trainee Mercenary Assessment."

A group of people arrived at the location for the space apprentice mercenary assessment. Compared to the place where adventurers registered, there were far fewer people here.

Rorschach and the others handed over their adventure cards.

The staff member looked them over one by one and then said, "Eternal Star Level 1 Spiritual Master, Eternal Star Level 5 Spiritual Master, Eternal Star Level 3 Spiritual Master, Eternal Star Level 9 Spiritual Master, Eternal Star Level 9 Martial Artist. You all meet the requirements for the Apprentice Mercenary Assessment Application. Please pay 10,000 Black Dragon Coins each."

Rorschach stepped forward to pay.

The staff member nodded and swiped Luo Xia and the others' adventure cards on the machine one by one. "This is the detailed information of your assessment mission. Go and take a look."

As he spoke, he returned the adventure card to Rorschach and the others.

After leaving the location where they applied for the assessment, Luo Xia and his group went to a restaurant, ordered some food, and then began reading the assessment tasks.

"Enter the Realm Master World of Canglan Star and obtain three Wind Horn Stones and a horn from a Unicorn Iron Rhinoceros. Hand over these three items to the staff of the Cosmic Mercenary Alliance guarding the exit of the Realm Master World to complete the assessment mission."

Melissa read out the contents of the assessment task in a clear, pleasant voice.

After listening, Luo Xia asked, "Are there any other precautions?"

Melissa looked down and said, "There's a note here that says if anyone is found cheating, they'll be permanently disqualified from the exam."

"Cheating? Does that mean buying the Wind Horn Stone and the horn of the Iron Rhinoceros from other people?" Luo Feng asked, stroking his chin.

Melissa nodded. "Yes."

Luo Xia said, "There's no need to cheat. I'm more interested in that world master's realm than this assessment task."

After finishing their meal, Luo Xia and the others left the restaurant.

Just then, a figure suddenly approached from the street.

He smiled and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, are you going to participate in the space apprentice mercenary assessment? I have something here that might be helpful to you."

Luo Feng asked curiously, "What is it?"

"I have a detailed map of the main world of the Azure Star Realm, as well as the experiences of many mercenaries who have completed the trials. Do you need them?"

He said with a smile.

Rorschach became interested and raised an eyebrow, asking, "How much?"

"Not much, 100 Black Dragon Coins per serving."

"Too expensive, 20 Black Dragon Coins at most!"

"I'd be losing money at 20, sir. Printing and labor costs are all factored in. 80, 80 Black Dragon coins, you can take it, okay?"

"Still too expensive! I just saw someone selling this, and even at 60, I thought it was too expensive. I'll buy it for 30 Black Dragon Coins!"

"50 Black Dragon Coins!" the merchant gritted his teeth.

"OK."

Rorschach smiled, readily paid the money, and then received the map.

Afterwards, they encountered another merchant selling this type of map. The two versions were different, and Rorschach spent 50 Black Dragon Coins to buy another copy.

After comparing them, we found that the maps were the same, but the opinions based on experience differed, with everyone saying different things.

It seems that the world of the Lord of the Realms changes every so often.

To ensure their combat effectiveness, Luo Xia and his team bestowed the Black God Set, which they had obtained from Ruins No. 9, upon Ao Gu and Tie Nanhe.

As for Melissa, Rorschach spent a bit more money to buy her a Tier 3 Force suit and weapons.

After making preparations, they boarded a spaceship, left Qiulong Star, and headed to Canglan Star.

Canglan Star is one of the top 100 most important planets in the territory of the Black Dragon Mountain Empire.

The world where Luo Xia and his group were taking their assessment was located on this planet.

……

"What a beautiful planet, it's comparable to our home planet."

Looking at the beautiful planet in front of the spaceship, Luo Feng smiled and exclaimed in admiration.

Rorschach was also looking towards the planet at that moment.

This is their destination: Canglan Star.

As Luo Feng watched Babata dock his spaceship in the harbor, he said curiously, "It's strange, I heard that the area of ​​that world's master is even larger than this planet, but the entrance is in a villa. That's really amazing."

Upon hearing this, Luo Xia smiled and said, "It's very similar to the saying on Earth that 'a grain of sand contains a world.'"

"Spaceship successfully docked!"

Babata said.

After a slight tremor, the spaceship fell completely silent.

After leaving the spaceship and paying the parking fee, Luo Xia and his group flew towards Thunder City on Canglan Star.

Thunder City is not far from the port of call.

Rorschach and his group arrived at their destination after flying for a few minutes.

They landed.

Thunder City is technologically advanced, with towering buildings and hovercars flying throughout the city.

"Where is the headquarters of the Space Mercenary Alliance, Babata?"

"Rorschach asked."

Babata revealed himself and pointed to Rorschach and the others, "Go that way, thirty kilometers away is the Mercenary Alliance's base on this planet."

The world that Luo Xia and his group were about to enter was located within the Mercenary Alliance's base.

Guided by Babata, they quickly arrived at their base.

A staff member greeted them and gave them directions, "Go that way, the villas surrounded by walls ahead, that's Thunder World."

Following the direction pointed out by the staff, Luo Xia and his group saw a solitary villa heavily guarded by soldiers.
