Chapter 1736: A Long Way Off?
This world.
Storm Star Region.
Palu star belt.
Nearly several months have passed since the first Palu child went missing.
The process of liberating the Palu Star Belt continues in full swing.
However, during this period, the number of missing children in Palu increased.
Xu Xiao, who was in charge of the liberation process, saw this and was anxious.
He also tried to negotiate with Shi Aotian and Shi Bashi no less than a hundred times.
Unfortunately, each attempt ended in failure.
With no other options, Xu Xiao could only gather the Palu children together and act as their guard, constantly surrounding them with his mental energy to ensure that no one else would disappear.
In this way, the protected Palu children are safe.
But then the incident of adult Palu disappearing occurred!
Even Xu Xiao's followers, the Palu warriors who played a pivotal role in the Palu people's liberation movement, have largely disappeared.
And it's still the kind of thing that [Tracking] can't lock onto, as if it's vanished into thin air!
No matter how powerful Xu Xiao is, he is still just a chosen one in the end.
A vast and expansive divine consciousness might be able to cover most of the star belt at the same time, but it is absolutely impossible to encompass the entirety of it.
Moreover, the duration is also a major issue.
He has the heart to protect all the people of Palu, but lacks the ability to care for everyone.
The constant stream of missing persons reports and the ever-decreasing population...
Like countless dull saws, cutting back and forth across the woman's will!
It brings endless pain and torment!
During this time, Nikita, who was also in the Palu Belt and witnessed everything, wanted to forcibly change things.
They also tried to contact Li Luo, hoping to invite another chosen one from Earth to quickly and completely wipe out the slave group.
However, under the constraints of the Eternal Night, Li Luo, the Chosen One who was still bound by the servant contract, directly refused the request and was unable to reach the Palu Star Belt to help.
Even beings like Matilda the Octopus, the King of the Rising Wind, the Black Whale, and Mo Xing were forcibly restricted in their range of movement and could not move freely according to their own will.
In a fit of anger, Nikita once launched a solo attack on the slave group.
He intended to single-handedly destroy the dark organization that was clearly behind the disappearances.
But the result was predictable: it would inevitably end in failure.
Leaving aside the combat strength of the other mercenaries in the slave group,
The sheer power of Shi Ba Shi, capable of emanating the aura of a Chosen One, was enough to give Nikita a run for her money!
So, apart from getting a beating, the long-legged, dazed girl made no progress whatsoever.
The situation has entered a delicate phase.
Everything is progressing slowly but steadily according to the original plan.
However, Xu Xiao's side was completely put on the defensive.
Like a puppet on strings, controlled by an invisible hand, losing control and unable to break free.
In such a dire situation, Xu Xiao could only place his hopes on Elisa.
Firstly, it is hoped that the opponent's Life Abyss Battle Domain can complete its transformation as soon as possible and awaken from its semi-dormant state.
Secondly, there is the hope that the Time Dragon coiled around Elisa's neck can provide further clarification.
After all, that sigh-like whisper was far too vague in its meaning.
They say things like, 'The course of the river of fate is already predetermined, so just act according to your holy will.'
Is it our destiny to be in this incredibly passive state?
Xu Xiao couldn't think of an answer.
She could only do her best and risk her life to protect all the Palu people.
Is divine sense unable to cover the entire Palu Star Belt?
Then keep moving at high speed without interruption!
Are you worried that the Palu people might go missing while you're resting?
Then I'll just stop sleeping altogether and stay awake at all times with the help of drugs and props!
Counting the time, Xu Xiao has not slept for nearly two months.
However, Elisa's full awakening is still a long way off.
Xu Xiao didn't know how long she had to hold on.
All she knew was that this was the only method that was still somewhat effective at the moment.
Although the culprit behind the disappearances has not yet been caught, at least the number of missing Palu people has been greatly reduced.
until a certain day.
On this day, Xu Xiao continued to move at high speed within the Palu Star Belt, scanning the surrounding planets with his vast divine sense.
Suddenly, she detected a strange movement amidst the countless spiritual lights and shadows.
Those are the cries for help from the followers of Palu who believe in her!
A steadfast belief left a faint signal at the last moment, indicating that the disappearance had occurred again!
Xu Xiao didn't dare to delay and immediately sped toward the direction from which the signal came.
A pure divine power emanated from him, enveloping the target planet first!
Unlike in the past,
This time, Xu Xiao didn't lose track of him again.
His divine sense conjured white thorns out of thin air, quickly trapping the guys who intended to kidnap the Palu people.
The woman's petite figure left trails of afterimages in the sky, arriving in an instant as if chasing stars and the moon!
At the checkpoint near the ground, the speed decreased sharply!
The transition from extreme motion to extreme stillness was swift and decisive, without the slightest hesitation.
The air currents created by the woman's figure stirred up a violent wind on the flat ground!
The dust and gravel swirled up and crashed towards the few figures who stood there dumbfounded.
Xu Xiao saw it clearly.
Those evildoers were mercenaries from a slave trade group!
"Release Oink!!"
The woman shouted, and her holy and divine power erupted once again with the sound waves, raising the sense of oppression even higher!
The three mercenaries were already entangled in the white thorns and unable to break free.
He was terrified when Xu Xiao yelled at him like that.
Let alone doing anything to the Palu pigman Oink,
They can't even do something as simple as raising their hands.
They could only stand still like three wooden stakes, completely motionless.
Taking this opportunity, Oink forcefully broke free from his restraints, squeezed out from between the three, and quickly approached Xu Xiao, saying excitedly:
"Lord Xu Xiao, these are the three guys!"
"I can smell Xiao Xuan on them. These three guys kidnapped Xiao Xuan!!"
Xu Xiao frowned and questioned the three mercenaries:
Where did you three hide the person?
Before the three mercenaries could even speak, another fiery meteor plummeted from the sky.
Ma Han, holding a flaming longbow, pointed the scorching arrowhead directly at the face of one of the men, and said menacingly:
"Stop trying to pull any tricks, just tell the truth!"
"Otherwise, I wouldn't mind putting a hole in your forehead!"
"Don't, don't be impulsive! We'll confess, we'll confess everything!" Mercenary A cried out in panic, his voice filled with fear.
"You're putting up a stubborn resistance, aren't you? Today I'll show you what your Grandpa Ma is all about. Uh, wait... what did you just say?" Ma Han's expression froze, and he frowned slightly.
“I said we’ll confess, we’ll absolutely confess! Please don’t hurt us!!” another mercenary shouted.
The last mercenary, C, with a mournful face, gave his final, pitiful summary:
"We were just following orders; we had no other choice!"
