Sanctuary Starfield Journey

67-7 The Darkness Before Sunset

The robot threw a punch, but Mo Bei reacted at the last second, using his Thunderflame Strike to create distance. The robot's fist was firmly embedded in the wall, and Mo Bei retaliated with a Thunderflame Bomb, burning all of the robot's parts to ashes.

The robot's fist hurtled towards Mo Bei, tearing apart the wall piece by piece like a jigsaw puzzle, sending countless stones and steel bars flying, the flames from the burning parts becoming dazzling. Mo Bei used Thunder Flame Roar Aerial Strike to try and dodge, but was instead struck in the chest by the flying steel bars, hanging precariously from the wall.

Mo Bei was pinned to the wall by the fishhook-shaped steel bar, blood streaming down his face. He tried to break free, but the hook-like structure only pulled him deeper. Mo Bei watched as the robot's fist came crashing down, countless pieces of wall shattering beside him, the air filled with the sounds of crashing and deafening explosions.

A musical note-shaped cushion appeared, blocking the robot's fist and sending it flying. Mo Bei felt his vision blur and his body go limp, as if winter had arrived, leaving him hanging against the wall. Before he completely lost consciousness, Mo Bei used his last ounce of strength to use Thunderflame Strike to escape, and then retrieved the Life-Saving Pill from his small world. After doing these two things, he completely passed out, and the Life-Saving Pill slipped from his hand.

Qinglan picked up the Resurrection Pill, stuffed it into Mo Bei's mouth, then picked him up and ran away while the robot's fist was knocked away and smashed to the ground.

Qinglan and Yan Fuxue reunited, but the robot had vanished, leaving only the pounding of the earth's heartbeat. Mo Bei quickly opened his eyes and woke up, panting heavily. He touched his pierced chest, which was so smooth that it showed no signs of injury. It felt as if he had returned to the moment he was ambushed by Amaterasu. Seeing him awake, Qinglan leaned over and touched her own chest, marveling at the power of the Life-Saving Pill and even dreaming of the future: "If I opened a shop next to the battlefield, I'd make a fortune." Yan Fuxue also stopped packing her backpack.

Mo Bei stood up, missing the good things about the Tianyin Empire: since leaving it, and only at the beginning of Chapter Seven, he had already been on the verge of death twice. But this also strengthened his resolve to get out alive.

As dawn approached, the three began to scavenge the ruins of Yingju City, planning to gather some more loot before heading to the "evacuation point" for a hearty meal and a safe departure. Mo Bei spotted another part, identical to the one before. The moment he picked it up, the robot emerged from the ground, having previously only avoided combat. Mo Bei locked eyes with the robot, while Qing Lan and Yan Fuxue turned away. The robot was now going to kill! Kill! While its earlier avoidance of combat seemed justified, in its eyes, it had completely lost face. If it wanted to fight, it wanted a head-on battle, to see who could prevail. Loser meant death, because what it hated most was apologies afterward.

The robot slammed down with a punch, but Mo Bei, his hand crackling with lightning flames, blocked it head-on. The lightning current surged through the robot, incinerating his fist. The robot raised its hand, preparing to deliver another punch.

Mo Bei stopped running away. A dragon shadow appeared behind him, his fists crackled with lightning and flames, and his feet incinerated all living beings.

Thunder Flame Secret Killing Formation!

Mo Bei darted through the area, his figure constantly disappearing and reappearing. A storm of lightning and fire formed around him, only to be quickly absorbed back into his body. Mo Bei was like Nipawan back then, moving at high speed and striking the robot's legs. Unfortunately, he only had five strikes, a mere 250% multiplier.

But so what if the multiplier is 250%? The robot still lost its balance, its legs melted off, and it crashed to the ground. Qinglan was completely distracted by the high-speed movement of Mobei, which prevented her from dodging in time, and she was crushed to the ground. Wait a minute! Upon closer inspection, Yan Fuxue actually placed an ice barrier under Qinglan to counteract the damage, thus preventing her from turning into a two-dimensional being.

Qinglan quickly climbed out, feeling a wave of fear wash over her. She vowed never to watch a battle from a dangerous place again.

Mo Bei heard a faint voice coming from the robot wreckage, something like, "Collector 7 signal lost - Activate all Anatomy Collectors. Prototype AI terminal brain activated." The heart of the earth beat once. "10%"

The earth's heartbeat was particularly clear in the dark night. In the crater where Collector 7 appeared, a red light flickered, revealing everything inside. The passage below opened and closed rhythmically; it was enormous and bottomless. The passage at the very center of Yingju City Ruins opened, and countless small robots flew out, each wielding a sharp blade. In addition, six Collectors crawled out from seven other passages. A faint aroma of warm tea lingered in the air. The earth's heartbeat increased to "35%".

The overwhelming number of Analyzers and the six colossal Collectors swarmed towards Mo Bei and his companions like locusts. Qing Lan noticed and said, "Something seems off." Mo Bei replied, "Run! Run as fast as you can!" With that, the Heavenly Yin Holy Sword appeared in his hand, crackling with flames and lightning, and three scales flew out from behind him as he charged towards the dark clouds. Several musical notes also appeared in Qing Lan's hand, joining Yan Fuxue's Frost Ice in the attack. The heart of the earth beat once: "66%".

Mo Bei was at the forefront, his right hand wielding his sword to cut down an Analysis Ship, while his left hand fired a Thunderfire Bomb at another Analysis Ship attempting a sneak attack. Just as Mo Bei was about to take down the next Analysis Ship, Qing Lan shouted, "No! Get out of the way!" A musical note struck Mo Bei squarely in the back, but Mo Bei ignored it and used Heavenly Fire Drop to clear the area. The earth throbbed with "100%".

All the machinery malfunctioned and crashed to the ground. Before Mo Bei and his companions could even process what was happening, they felt a slight tremor beneath their feet. Amidst the earth's trembling, a gigantic sphere slowly rose with the sun, absorbing and merging with all the ruins, debris, and mechanical structures below…
