Chapter 956: Chapter 720 Is This the Strongest Legacy?
"Indeed, the strongest legacy, such domineering energy! I didn’t even have time to absorb it before I got injured!" Adaman said.
"I told you so," Lou Aran looked at his own wound and sighed heavily. Losing an arm, although it could be restored, was not something that could be done in a short while.
"Simply walking past it is like this, let alone a direct attack..." Adaman shook his head, it was too terrifying. As he thought, Adaman turned to check the position of the Teleportation Array; by all accounts, a minute had already passed, and both Long Yi and Ai Lin should have arrived already. Could it be that their battle was at a stalemate?
"Hahahahaha! I’m dying of laughter, I wondered what they meant by the strongest legacy, turns out it’s the main control core of this satellite!" Long Yi was already laughing his head off within the contract.
Once Adaman and Lou Aran entered the Array together, Long Yi and Ai Lin immediately started ransacking the warehouse, taking everything first, leaving the research for later.
"No matter how busy they are inside, they won’t even think about taking that main control core with them; it’s fixed with Space Rivets! The Giants were so lazy they would rather throw it away here than bother with removing it, and you two fake Masters actually came looking for the strongest legacy? Hahahahaha!"
Long Yi couldn’t stop laughing while his hands were also continuously busy. According to the Giants’ rules, all things related to the Giants in the entire multiverse now belonged to Long Yi, so he did not show any mercy while ransacking.
It’s a joke, just taking back what’s mine!
"I guess, they won’t actively attack the golden sphere, right?" Ai Lin said.
"That’s not certain; these two idiots, if blinded by rage, might do anything. If they approach the core normally, it will cause a space tremor that will push them away, of course, if they’re unlucky they might also get shredded. However, if the core is directly attacked, it will use a Dimensional Slash," Long Yi said.
"It doesn’t matter what it uses, just that these two had better not die, it won’t be fun if they do!"
Little Zi giggled and said.
"No worries, it’s not easy to take that thing away, but not difficult to destroy it; I’ll go help them out in a minute!"
While Long Yi was busy, Adaman and Lou Aran in that space were already covered in wounds.
They had, after all, attempted a direct attack on the golden sphere, which resulted in a frenzied counterattack from the sphere. It was a bizarre attack that could appear in any corner at any time, utterly indefensible because it was a direct tear in space! All they could do was dodge relentlessly!
There was no chance at all!
"Let’s go! Time is almost up! In a hundred years, we will have another chance!" Lou Aran gasped for breath, he lost an arm, he.
"Go!" Adaman was also covered in wounds, his face ashen.
Just then, the Array flashed with light, and Long Yi appeared.
"Eh? You guys were just sparring? Hahaha! Then am I not just reaping the benefits? So the golden sphere is the strongest legacy, right? That’s mine now!" Long Yi excitedly rushed over.
However, Adaman and Lou Aran showed no intent to stop him, amusement flickering in their eyes.
Sure enough, when he had covered more than half the distance, energy suddenly spurted from the golden sphere!
"Crap! What’s this!" Long Yi yelled, his arm covered in Crystal Stone armor, trying to resist. In fact, Long Yi had long known it was a series of space tremors coming from the golden sphere. Sure enough, one tremor shattered Long Yi’s Crystal Stone armor. Long Yi quickly put up a shield, and the space tremor pushed him all the way back to Adaman.
At this point, Long Yi looking at the miserable state of Adaman and Lou Aran, nodded thoughtfully.
"Alright, I see why you guys look so miserable."
Then, Long Yi tried twice more, but in the end, he was pushed back to his original position. And just at that moment, Ai Lin also appeared.
Long Yi looked at Ai Lin, smiling, not saying a word.
"Is that the strongest legacy?" Ai Lin pointed at the golden sphere and asked.
"Yes!" Long Yi nodded.
Ai Lin glanced at Long Yi, then looked at the wretched Adaman and Lou Aran, then shook her head, "That dangerous? Never mind, I don’t want it."
Long Yi, who had been full of anticipation, sighed at once, "How did you know it was dangerous?"
Ai Lin rolled her eyes at Long Yi, "Just look at the state of those two, and then at your face, all eager to see a good show. If your things were easy to get, could you have waited until now? So forget it!"
Lou Aran came to Ai Lin and said, "This planet is about to disappear again into the fissure of space. Let’s leave quickly, in a hundred years, it will return again, and we have a hundred years to figure out a way!"
Ai Lin nodded her head, turned, and started to leave.
But Long Yi, looking at the golden sphere, wore an unhappy expression, "Damn it! Still don’t want to let us take you? Then you just stay here!"
With that, Long Yi took a very heavy metal part out of his private space and flung it at the sphere!
"That’s bad! This will trigger a counterattack!"
Lou Aran exclaimed in alarm! He didn’t care about the others and hurriedly ran towards the Teleportation Array. However, he then heard the clanging sound as the metal component hit the golden sphere squarely. The sphere, still floating in the air, was smashed in half!
The halved golden sphere started disintegrating rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it turned completely to powder!
Everyone was stunned, how could such a powerful golden orb be directly smashed to pieces?!
Indeed, this was something no one had anticipated. The orb could defend against invaders and resist energy surges. However, it had no response to the unguided, will-less matter flying toward it.
"Even the Giants of yore were not perfect," said Long Yi, reflecting on the situation.
At that moment, the ground shook slightly, and the sound of metal breaking could be heard from within.
"What’s breaking?"
Ai Lin asked.
"I’m not sure what it is, but I think if we want to leave, we’d better do it now! Otherwise, we sure won’t be able to!"
Long Yi yelled and was the first to dash towards the Array; however, the others were in front of him, so Long Yi ended up being the last one to step onto the Array. Though entering required time, leaving could be done at any moment; this was another way of saying that visitors were not welcomed here.
Upon leaving that mysterious space and coming outside, they saw the surrounding buildings were collapsing!
Long Yi ran at the back, sprinting all the way. The golem guards had all collapsed to the ground, unable to move. Long Yi reached out and put a Golem into his own private space. He ran upward along the path he had come down, with explosions occasionally emanating from the depths below. Energetic bursts could be seen, and some soldiers were hit by the energy and screamed as they fell from above. Long Yi took to the air and did his best to catch all the soldiers nearby. Little Zi also used Mana to levitate and carry some soldiers into the air.
Finally, the crowd left through the gate, only to see the tall tower slowly collapsing in their direction!
"Don’t worry about friend or foe! Gather all Mana and blast it away!"
Long Yi yelled, and all the soldiers who were fleeing immediately stopped.
Long Yi, Ai Lin, and Little Zi stood in the forefront, with Mana coalescing like never before. An enormous Magic missile expanded rapidly! In a blink, it had grown over a kilometer in size!
The massive Magic missile, roaring as it went, slammed into the tower, utterly shredding it before flying toward the origin. But the crisis was far from over. Fearsome rumbling noises still came from underground.
"What’s happening?" Ai Lin asked within the contract.
"When I smashed the golden orb, it just happened to be when the planet’s power core was charging up, and because the orb was damaged, the charging couldn’t stop, leading to an overflow of energy."
"So, what’s going to happen?"
"Maybe nothing; maybe soon a new sun will burst forth here. I don’t know, just run!"
With no threat from cannons, all Mages flew up into the sky. They quickly returned to the airship, which took off swiftly, speeding away from the area.
Just then, an incredibly bright light illuminated the surrounding cosmos, followed by a violent explosion, with countless metal fragments tumbling towards them!
"This is bad!"
Everyone on the airship was immediately petrified with fear.
But!
At that moment, a tremendous gravitational force pulled all of the expelled energy and debris back in. Even the ships at a great distance felt this powerful tug.
However, the force was fleeting, and the airship resumed its escape. The enormous planet that they had just left now seemed to have completely vanished.
Adaman looked out the window and sighed heavily.
He had never imagined that his plan, a hundred years in the making, would end up like this! He had failed to obtain the strongest legacy, and even the planet had been destroyed!
If there was a source to blame for all this...
"Long Yi!"
Adaman glanced at Long Yi, who was sitting there, with Little Zi massaging his shoulders, while several soldiers expressed their gratitude to him. On the way back, some soldiers who had lost the ability to fly due to the energy bursts were saved by Long Yi and Little Zi. Of course, at that time, Long Yi didn’t care whether the soldiers were from the Sanctuary Empire or the Holy Auffa Empire.
Adaman knew that Long Yi had reaped a great harvest this time. Not only had he obtained the Cosmic Stone Greatsword, but he had also gathered many Giant relics from the warehouse! If Adaman was at his peak, he would have tried to take them by force. But now, he was extremely weak, and a direct confrontation with Long Yi would likely not turn out in his favor. He needed time to recover.
After that, whatever you got will be mine!
At this moment, Little Zi said to Long Yi through the contract, "Even without using any psychic Magic, I can be sure he’s there cursing you."
Long Yi said nonchalantly, "Let him curse. I’m not losing anything anyway. It’s he who has suffered a huge loss this time; he’ll be humiliated when he goes back!"
Little Zi glanced at Adaman and asked, "He won’t try to backstab you, will he?"
Long Yi grinned, "What can he possibly do? I’m not afraid of poison, I can slap away anyone he sends, the Emperor’s power can’t defeat me, and he still needs me. He holds no advantage over me, neither in strength nor power."
Little Zi nodded silently, "That’s true."
