Nine Star Burden - Chapter 1240 - Good day
Chapter 1240 – Good day
Therefore … If he wanted to truly explore the Secrets of the Dragon Cave, did he have to first cause the Dragon Cave to collapse?
Jiang Xiao and his team had experienced the collapse of the Dragon Cave at least three times. However, without exception, they had already evacuated safely before the Dragon Cave completely collapsed.
However, he did not expect that the real secret would happen after the space completely collapsed and the entrance to the Dragon Cave was truly closed …
Jiang Xiao frowned and couldn’t help but fall into deep thought.
According to the images transmitted by Hidden Dragon, even Jiang Xiao himself could not guarantee that he would be able to survive the collapse of such a level of space.
Did he really want to explore the secrets of this world?
Most importantly, even if Jiang Xiao were to survive, he would have to live alone in that long, dead environment for a long time. He could only wait for the Dragon Cave to open again before he could find the so-called exit.
What if the Dragon Cave was closed for half a year? Was Jiang Xiao going to be trapped here forever?
It had a past record …
……
At the same time, in the imperial capital, in the courtyard of celestial descent.
It was oneo’ clock in the morning and second last’s office was pitch black.
Upon closer inspection, one could see a man in a white robe scribbling away at his desk.
Obviously, it was three tails …
And second last … He was standing in front of the office window with his arms crossed in front of his chest, silently looking at the scenery outside the window.
The moonlight shone on her face, covering her figure with a layer of cold light, giving her a unique style.
Unfortunately, no one appreciated her. The only person who could appreciate her was writing at the desk and ignoring second last.
Knock, knock, knock. A light knock on the door was heard.”Captain Shou.”
“Yes.” Second last snorted and the heavenly Hound entered from the door behind her with a lunch box.
The heavenly Hound was already used to such scenes. Second last didn’t like to turn on the lights, and the new Secretary seemed to be able to accept working in the dark …
The heavenly Hound placed the lunchbox on the coffee table and turned to leave.
In fact, the heavenly Hound was still a little happy. If third last had not come, he would have been the one working hard behind the desk …
As for second last?
Hehe, do you think she can do it herself? How naive!
Second last finally turned around and looked at third last, who was behind the desk, before saying,””I’m going to sleep. ”
Third last’s hand that was holding the pen paused for a moment before she nodded gently.
Second last picked up the lunchbox, opened the portal, and walked in.
Just as she entered her own world of calamity and shadows, she heard a sound.
He was still awake, perhaps because he was studying his techniques or the star map. Second last was confident in Jiang Xiao’s efforts.
She tightened her grip on the lunchbox … As expected, he didn’t take it for nothing. He wasn’t asleep yet.
However, when second last arrived at the rest area, she discovered that Jiang Xiao was sitting on the ground with his back against the bed and mumbling,””Something doesn’t feel right.”
Maybe … Was he studying the new Star chart?
Second last walked over, squatted down, and handed the lunchbox to Jiang Xiao.””You must be hungry.”
“F * ck!”
Jiang Xiao, the decoy, got a great shock. Due to the fact that all his Star Slots were empty and that he did not have any perception-type star techniques, he did not realize that the big cat was approaching him because he was too engrossed in his thoughts and the safe space!
“Don’t you make any sound when you walk? With a floating one?” Although Jiang Xiao shivered in shock and had a look of dissatisfaction on his face, he still took the lunch box.
Waa …
Cold dishes, stir-fried vegetables, braised pork, chicken legs, and steaming rice.
As expected of my own cat, it knows what I like to eat.
There was nothing more delicious than red braised pork at 1 am.
If there was, it could only be a barbecue at 1:30 in the morning …
Jiang Xiao picked up two chicken legs and handed one to second last.””I have some news that I need to report to you.”
Second last took the chicken leg and sat on the ground, leaning back against the bed.
She was in the exact same position as Jiang Xiao, but she looked much more carefree.
She tore off a piece of chicken leg and looked up at the deep and vast night sky. She chewed and said in a nasal voice,””Yes.”
Jiang Xiao looked at her adorable appearance and couldn’t help but grin. Indeed, contrasting cuteness was the scariest.
Cute, I want to … Cough cough … Oh no, my aesthetic sense has collapsed. I actually think that this kind of woman is cute.
He was used to seeing her cruelly crushing the heads of her enemies. The sudden appearance of this life-type scene was like opening the door to a new world …
“I’ve found the secret of the dragon Cave,”Jiang Xiao said.
Second last stopped chewing and turned around to look at Jiang Xiao in shock.
You found the secret?
How many years had the Dragon Cave existed? You used three days to find its secret?
Under the dim starry sky, Jiang Xiao could see the oil stains on her lips. Coupled with her cold face, they formed a wonderful picture that had a strange sense of beauty.
Jiang Xiao continued,’to be exact, Baji …’ Baji … It’s the right direction to search for secrets. ”
Second last casually threw half a chicken drumstick onto Jiang Xiao’s lunchbox and said,””Speak,” he said.
Like this, like this, like this, like this …
Jiang Xiao explained the current situation in detail and his reasonable speculation.
Second last listened attentively and only took a few words to change her expression and mentality from a dazed look to a serious expression.
Second last looked at Jiang Xiao, who was gobbling down the food, and said in a deep voice,””We’ll report the information you’ve found. Don’t cause the Dragon Cave to collapse first.
As you said, once you’ve decided to explore the true Secrets of the Dragon Cave, you’ll have to survive in that collapsed, dead space. Even if you survive the catastrophe, you’ll be imprisoned there.
We can only ensure when the Dragon Cave will close, but we can’t guarantee when it will open again. ”
While listening, Jiang Xiao also nodded repeatedly and tilted the lunchbox at an angle so that the red braised pork’s soup from the small container of vegetables would flow into the rice container.
Then, he picked up the chopsticks and mixed it up.
Wow, it’s so beautiful!
Seeing that Jiang Xiao was eating while nodding, second last heaved a sigh of relief.
In name, she could still order him around, but in reality, their status had long been equal, or even reversed.
In this world, strength was the only thing that mattered.
Jiang Xiao’s abilities had already exceeded second last’s tolerance. Even if he insisted on doing things his way, second last wouldn’t be able to do anything to him.
Kill the bait in front of him? It was just a matter of a slap. The problem was that Jiang Xiao’s body was not within her control.
Besides, second last was able to get to where she was today because she had received too many gifts and care from Jiang Xiao. It was a simple mentality that also applied to second last.
Seeing that Jiang Xiao had agreed, second last’s mood improved greatly. She reached out and took back the half chicken leg that she had thrown on the lunchbox earlier …
“Eh? You … Why are you still …” Jiang Xiao stopped before he could finish his sentence.
Second last placed the chicken leg in her mouth again and tore off a piece of meat fiercely. She then turned around to look at Jiang Xiao and said,””What’s wrong?”
“I ‘m, I’m fine,” Jiang Xiao had a strange expression on his face and he shook his head repeatedly.
“Hmph,” he snorted. Second last humphed coldly and leaned back with her elbow on the lower bunk. She listened to Jiang Xiao eating and looked up at the dim starry sky …
For a moment, she suddenly felt that this was how her life should be.
A shelter that made her feel extremely safe and no longer constantly alert to her surroundings.
With the delicious food in her mouth, she could satisfy her greed and her taste buds.
Beside him, there was a person he could trust, a person who had the same thoughts and heart.
Second last interpreted Jiang Xiao’s words as him stopping his protest after she ignored him.
However, in fact, it wasn’t second last’s gaze that made Jiang Xiao stop complaining, but …
……
In the Dragon Cave.
Jiang Xiao threw the hidden Dragon into his world of calamity and shadows and put away the humming whale. After sorting out his thoughts, he returned to the entrance of the Dragon Cave in a flash, intending to report the information he had gathered.
However, to Jiang Xiao’s surprise, a person flew in from the entrance of the tunnel!
An acquaintance!
The old man who had just entered the Dragon Cave was stunned for a moment when he saw the person opposite him. Then, he smiled, his face full of wrinkles.”We meet again, Jiang xiaopi.”
“Hopkins …. Jiang Xiao mumbled to himself before his expression suddenly changed.”How did you get in? What did you do to the people outside …”
Hopkins smiled and waved his hand. The two of them left the Dragon Cave and entered a snowy mountain.
“Hopkins!”
“Don’t worry, my friend,” Hopkins said with a smile.”The guards outside are not dead. I’ve always been kind to you, have I not?”
“Huh?” Jiang Xiao asked with a sullen expression.
Hopkins sighed. He looked around at the snow and said,””I haven’t seen you for a long time, and I’ve received a lot of news from you. I can see that you’re still in the stage of ‘caring’.
Since that’s the case, I’m also willing to show due respect to your ‘care’.
Of course, I know your attitude towards your comrades. So, I won’t let those insignificant things affect our relationship.
Your soldiers “lives aren’t in danger. They just can’t stop me.”
Then Hopkins took two steps forward. Standing on the top of the snow Mountain, he looked into the distance at the magical and strange land, at the setting sun.
His murky eyes were slightly dazed as he said softly,””This place … That’s the place closest to the truth, right, my friend?”
Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said,”maybe. Maybe not.”
Jiang Xiao didn’t doubt Hopkins’s words at all. There was no need for Hopkins to lie about such things. Besides, if Jiang Xiao wanted to verify it, it would only take a moment.
“All the dimensions in the world have disappeared,” Hopkins said softly.”The strange ball and earth have fused. There are no more upper, lower, or holy ground.
Why did a spatial door have to exist here?
Why is there such a mystical continent here?”
As an Emperor who had fought in Europe in the 1960s, Hopkins did not have the concept of a “Dragon Cave” in his mind.
Maybe Hopkins had heard some rumors about the Dragon Cave a few months ago when Earthlings swarmed into the strange planet, but this was definitely his first time here.
Just like when Jiang Xiao first arrived, the European Emperor, who had seen a lot of things, revealed a new look and marveled at the beauty of the world.
While they were talking, the sun had already set in the West, and the stars in the sky were spinning rapidly.
“My friend, how’s the research on the star martial history going? What’s your cultivation level?” Hopkins’s stoic mind finally showed some signs of change.”Have you reached the second level of star transformation? can you cross dimensions?”
Jiang Xiao shook his head silently.
All of a sudden, Jiang Xiao realized that he shouldn’t have told Hopkins that he was studying the star Warrior discipline and unsealing the star Slots.
Just now, when the two of them met, Jiang Xiao was returning from the desert in a flash, and all his star techniques were switched off.
At present, only Han Jiangxue, second last, and third last knew that Jiang Xiao’s star technique had been unsealed. If he kept it a secret, it seemed that he could seize the opportunity?
Regardless of whether it would work in the end, there was no harm in hiding something.
Besides, Jiang Xiao didn’t have to show off in front of Hopkins!
“That’s a pity. It seems like you’ve been hindered by worldly matters.” Hopkins stood on the cliff with his hands behind his back. He sighed and said,”maybe I should help you.”
Upon hearing her words, Jiang Xiao’s body tensed up slightly.
Hopkins turned around, looked at Jiang Xiao, and said,””Without a doubt, This Must Be the Place closest to the truth. After breaking through here, there must be a new world outside.”
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and thought to himself, this is bad.
Previously, Hopkins was still able to bear with it and was willing to supervise Jiang Xiao’s growth within his limits.
That was because Hopkins had the concept of the “outside world,” but he didn’t have a place to experiment.
And now, he had found the only Dragon Cave that was open in the world. Obviously, this was the experimental site!
Hopkins, who was familiar with the principle of the Earth’s evolution of the strange ball, knew very well that this Dragon Cave had nothing to do with the projection of the strange ball, nor with the upper and lower dimensions!
This was the existence of a space independent of the Earth’s evolution sphere system. Since he could analyze it to this point, what else was there to not understand?
So, this old man … After being shocked by such a scene, he probably couldn’t hold back anymore! After all, this old man’s age was there for all to see!
Hopkins waved his hand, opened a portal, and reached in.
In the next moment, his wet hands picked up corpses one after another.
The corpse was covered in water and ice shards, as if it had been thrown into an Ice River to be frozen.
Jiang Xiao’s expression froze and he thought to himself, the two corpses are … The two members of the planet transform organization who had yet to show their faces?
The last two surviving members of the planet transformation organization had been in Hopkins’s hands?
Hopkins threw the two corpses at Jiang Xiao’s feet and said with a smile,””I hope you can once again feel my kindness.”
Jiang Xiao’s face was as bitter as a little bun.
Last time, Hopkins was kind to him and modified his body to enhance his star power and increase his growth potential. After that, he completely sealed Jiang Xiao’s star Slots.
And this time … What was this old man up to this time?
An elegant, middle-aged woman walked out of Hopkins’s portal.
The old witch Catherine?
Her long golden hair was tied up in a high bun, and she was wearing an expensive dress. The exquisite necklace matched her fair skin … She was in a completely different state from when Jiang Xiao first saw her.
Peerless magnificence and a pressing noble aura.
When she saw Hopkins, Catherine bowed slightly with a charming smile. She bowed respectfully and said,””Great prophet.”
After that, Catherine looked at Jiang Xiao and bowed politely.””Good day, sir.”
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips …
Indeed, good day.
One day, the three of us will be able to rest in peace.
…
The new volume will be released tomorrow, which will also be the final volume. After the end of the month, he didn’t think about fighting for anything and didn’t ask for votes.
He wanted to fill in the hole for everyone and write a warm and happy ending to end the little toxic healer’s bizarre journey. But now, it seemed that he had lost a little too many tickets. Please give him some tickets for support~
