Apocalypse: I rescued the big boss with millions of supplies

Chapter 83 Stealing Star Source Fragments?

It was night, dark and windy.

Long Yangyang suddenly opened her eyes, reluctantly leaving the soft bed. Strength was more important. "Xiao Fei, let's go."

Following Xiao Fei's instructions, Long Yangyang teleported away from the room. Subtle fluctuations seemed to appear in the space, but no one in the vast base noticed.

Long Yangyang arrived at an unfamiliar place, but before she could even take out a flashlight from her spatial storage, she was stopped by the pervasive stench of blood in the air.

By the faint moonlight, Long Yangyang was surprised to find that she was surrounded by the corpses of mutated animals.

"Xiao Fei, have these mutated animals turned into zombies?"

“No, Yangyang, they are all normal mutated animals. The two on your left are even level three mutated animals,” Xiaofei said.

She was rich! Although Long Yangyang knew that it was definitely not safe with so many mutated animals dead, she was more interested in the free meat in front of her.

Long Yangyang first put away the two level-three mutated animals that Xiao Fei had mentioned. One was a water-type mutated cow and the other was a fire-type mutated pig. Together they weighed about five tons, and their family would be short of meat for the next month or so.

The crystal cores of mutated animals do not need purification and are more easily absorbed by those with superpowers. These two crystal cores are perfect for giving to Shi Qing and Bai Zhi.

Of course, Long Yangyang didn't mind the remaining mutated animals without crystal cores either. Five sheep and six rabbits followed the scent of blood all the way.

Along the way, she collected sixty mutated chickens, fifty mutated rabbits, and three mutated cows. As Long Yangyang progressed, she discovered that the probability of mutated animals containing crystal cores was increasing.

At first there were only two, but now almost all the mutated animals that have died have crystal nuclei.

Most of them were level two or three crystal cores. "Hey, Xiao Fei, it was actually a level four wind-type mutated sheep. It's a pity it died."

"Yangyang, be careful, the Star Origin Fragment is not far ahead. The level four mutated beasts are all dead, the ones fighting ahead might be of even higher level."

Long Yangyang nodded. She had also noticed the energy fluctuations from the battle ahead. There were always stronger people out there. She wasn't arrogant enough to think that just because she was a level 5 ability user and possessed a level 6 mutated plant, she was invincible.

"Xiao Fei, can you conceal my presence?" Long Yangyang asked.

"With 500 energy points, I can use spatial energy to shield your aura, Yangyang. As long as you don't use your special abilities, even someone with level 10 special abilities won't be able to detect it."

"That's amazing?" Long Yangyang was extremely envious of this skill. "Xiao Fei, can I do that with my own spatial ability?"

“Of course,” Xiao Fei replied. “Once you level up another level, Yangyang, you can learn this ability, but it can only block out stronger people who are two levels higher than you.”

Even though she was at two different levels, Long Yangyang was very satisfied.

"Xiao Fei, please shield my aura and deduct the energy points directly. I'll sneak over and see if I can find an opportunity to take the Star Origin Fragment."

In order not to alert the people fighting ahead, Long Yangyang moved forward silently. Even when she took the opportunity to touch the mutated beast, she did so discreetly by touching it with her hand and putting it into her spatial storage, for fear of being discovered by using her mental power.

Fortunately, I had the foresight to clear out a lot of supplies in my space today, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have been able to fit all this meat in.

As Long Yangyang drew closer, she finally saw the fighting scene ahead clearly.

It turned out to be an eagle and a tree.

The black eagle was incredibly majestic, nearly ten meters long, with its wings spread wide, soaring through the sky and blotting out the sun. With each movement, there were faint spatial fluctuations around it, as if it were directly tearing space apart.

The tree that was battling it was equally matched; the towering tree, more than twenty meters tall, occupied a territory of tens of kilometers in radius, like a small village.

The branches, invisible to the naked eye, shot towards the giant eagle in the sky like a dense swarm of arrows. Long Yangyang could clearly feel the mysterious energy fluctuations on the branches.

It seems that if you get hurt by a branch, something terrible will happen.

Under the pitch-black night, an eagle and a tree attacked each other frantically. The space they were in was instantly filled with smoke and dust, and wherever their attacks hit, everything in sight was reduced to ashes.

Long Yangyang instantly understood why there were corpses everywhere nearby.

Miao Miao on her wrist trembled with fear upon sensing the aura of the large tree. Long Yangyang couldn't sense the level of the eagle and the uncle before her; their level was definitely above hers.

Long Yangyang stared excitedly at the crystal floating in mid-air in front of the tree, shimmering with starlight—a fragment of star source, about the size of an adult's thumb.

This is much more than what Long Yangyang saw in Fu Muyu before.

Just as Long Yangyang was about to step forward, she sensed a spatial fluctuation ahead and quickly dodged to the side.

That was close! I was almost hit. The space was distorted. If I didn't also have spatial abilities, my body would probably be twisted too.

"Yangyang, why don't you give up? It's an eighth-level ability battle arena, and you're only fifth-level. Even if I shield your aura so you won't be detected, once they hit you with their attacks, you'll be seriously injured even if you don't die." Xiao Fei thought to herself, "Sure enough, Star Origin Fragments aren't so easy to obtain."

Animals and plants have far stronger intuition than humans, especially mutated beasts and plants that have successfully absorbed star source fragments to evolve, which have actually reverted to their ancestral forms.

"Yangyang, an eighth-level Kunpeng. Kunpeng is a divine beast, born with spatial talent, and is also the darling of the wind element. The physical strength of a divine beast is incomparable to that of humans."

It was fighting the Tree of Life, level eight. Although the Tree of Life was incredibly valuable, it controlled life itself; being hit by its attacks would directly drain one's life force.

"Can't your spatial shield protect me?" Long Yangyang retorted.

Xiao Fei said helplessly, "Yang Yang, we have a contract. My strength is limited by your level. The shield can only use energy that is three levels higher than your own level."

I cannot guarantee that the spatial shield will remain intact under the attack of two level-eight superpowers.

Xiao Fei sighed silently, truly unsure whether stealing Star Source Fragments from under the noses of two Level 8 alien beasts and plants was more difficult than obtaining them from an unknown research institute.

After learning that Xiao Fei's spatial shield was at most level eight, Long Yangyang gave up her idea of ​​infiltrating the battlefield to steal the Star Source Fragment.

But Long Yangyang was unwilling to give up on the Star Source Fragment just like that. "Xiao Fei, let's wait a little longer."

Long Yangyang watched the fierce battle ahead intently, and when she saw the branches of the Tree of Life occasionally drifting to her feet, she carefully collected them.

Xiao Fei said that a single leaf of the Tree of Life contains abundant vitality and can help those with superpowers undergo a complete transformation. It's a good thing, isn't it?

She counted; there were at least eight leaves on the branch. Even if she returned empty-handed tonight, these leaves from the Tree of Life alone would be a huge profit.
