Upon hearing Yu Sheng utter the word "plan," even Baili Qing couldn't help but twitch a few pixels at the corner of her eye.
"I'm suddenly a bit curious, what exactly was your initial plan?" She asked, looking at Yu Sheng's eyes with so suspicion.
Yu Sheng is a straightforward person: "I didn't have a plan."
Baili Qing: "..."
The little puppet lying on Yu Sheng's shoulder suddenly perked up: "There's murderous intent!"
Baili Qing took a deep breath.
"Let's talk about that 'ball' outside," the humanoid giant dragon's tone was a bit stiff, "Do you really not know how this thing appeared?"
"I really don't know," Yu Sheng waved his hand, "but I can tell you about the events at the Earth Core and the process of establishing a connection between the two World Bridges—yes, two World Bridges, one constructed by these cultists as the 'Gate of Eden', and the other was the 'Angel Original' I snagged after our last fight at the On Divine Temple..."
Yu Sheng didn't hold back, he narrated all the events that happened after he fell into the Earth Core—he talked about the origins of the "Holy" and the Shadowless Skeleton and also about how he used the chanism of the World Bridge and the Gate of Eden to completely devour the Holy and the Shadowless Skeleton.
Of course, he omitted so technical details—for instance, how he died instantly in the first round.
After all, there were quite a few people here, and not everyone shared the sa blood-related experience as Baili Qing.
While Yu Sheng was recounting his story, Red began increasingly unable to ignore the gaze resting on her.
She endured the slight burning sensation on her skin and looked up to see the "Living Saint" who ca with Yu Sheng, tilting their head, looking at her boldly and curiously.
mories of encountering them during the Star Gate battle surfaced in Red's mind, causing her to wrinkle her brow slightly: "Is there sothing you need?"
Yet the glowing spiritual creature simply ignored her and continued staring silently.
"She thinks you look familiar," Luna suddenly interjected from the side.
"We t at the Star Gate," Red's expression turned uncomfortable, "but at the ti, she... wasn't as 'spiritual' as now."
As soon as Red finished speaking, the "Artificial Angel" beside Yu Sheng suddenly moved, gently fluttering her translucent wings, she floated over to Red and extended a hand.
Red was montarily taken aback and looked up, seeing a face much clearer than her mory—a girl's face, smiling warmly and expectantly, maintaining the gesture of extending her hand.
Red understood the other's intention.
She also smiled slightly, gently reaching out her hand: "I'm glad to see you safe and sound..."
Yu Sheng and Baili Qing simultaneously heard a slight sizzling sound nearby, and Hu Li's ears twitched and nose twitched: "What was that cooked?"
Followed by Baili Qing's exclamation: "I can't believe this, you're an undead creature shaking hands with a living Holy Light?!"
"I did put up protection, didn't expect her grip to be so strong—wait, don't move, it's cooked, it's cooked..."
"Perhaps I should cut off this hand of yours? Given your physique, it'll grow back faster than restoring this slowly."
"Don't ss around—continue with the main discussion, I'll heal on my own later."
Yu Sheng looked on in shock at the unexpected antics before him, especially seeing Baili Qing using a subtle tone to tease soone for the first ti, suddenly realizing that the usually cold Special Service Director also seed to have a rather rich social life and personal feelings.
The "Miss Angel," who had just joined not long ago, floated over despondently, standing next to Yu Sheng, looking a bit disappointed.
Erin stood up and reached out to pat their arm: "Oh, it's not your fault, your mishaps are sowhere far from here? Let's talk about the anecdotes of the Black Stone Research Station later..."
The puppet is indeed rather competent in comforting people.
Fortunately, soone on the scene remains reliable, Baili Qing ca over and forcibly pulled the topic back on track: "In conclusion, the current fact is that a 'Black Star' is suspended in the Universe, and the only thing we can determine at present is that its appearance might be related to the connection process of the two World Bridges—and it remains stably at the position of the Gate of Eden, without disappearing."
Listening to Baili Qing's words, Yu Sheng's expression also turned serious, he gently nodded.
"That thing, Master Yuan Hao previously encountered as well. According to his accounts, the appearance and disappearance of the Black Star are utterly random, its operation mode and essence are inexplicable. Back then, he suddenly collided with it and inexplicably was thrown back to the real Universe—this is the first ti we've fully witnessed its ergence..."
Yu Sheng spoke while thoughtfully pinching his chin, slowly furrowing his brows.
A flood of scattered mories and clues swirled, interconnected in his mind, and many previous theories about the Black Star began to gradually consolidate.
Not only did he recall the adventures that the old chic had shared with him, but he also rembered the scenes about the Black Star he had encountered in so illusions before.
Soon after, he rembered another crucial clue.
It was during the final monts of the World Bridge Crisis, in the forgotten ruins of the On Divine Temple, when the Black Star briefly appeared above that lost space as the World Bridge collapsed.
Yu Sheng spoke out about this.
"Yes, I rember that scene too," Baili Qing imdiately nodded; she was also an eyewitness, "It only appeared for a very short ti, materialized and vanished into thin air, the whole process was unable to capture any aura or energy fluctuations."
Erin sat on Yu Sheng's shoulder, arms crossed, mumbling: "It was the World Bridge then... it's the World Bridge now..."
Hu Li's two furry pointed ears suddenly twitched.
"Savior, do you think the Black Star that Master Yuan Hao saw back then is the sa as the one before us now?"
Yu Sheng raised an eyebrow: "What do you an by that?"
"We watched this Black Star 'erge'," the fox girl said earnestly, "Strictly speaking, it 'generated' in place when the Gate of Eden reached a specific state, instead of 'transferring from elsewhere'. We always thought the Black Star teleported right before our eyes, but this ti, can we indeed rule out the 'transfer' process?"
Yu Sheng blinked and seed to understand the other's train of thought from the fox girl's bright golden-red eyes.
"You an... the Black Star might not be an actual, independent celestial body?"
"Well, it's just a guess," Hu Li's large tails swayed, "Do you think maybe the Black Star is actually a 'phenonon'? It doesn't run around but appears in this universe when conditions are t. If conditions aren't sufficient or the environnt maintaining the phenonon changes, it naturally fades away."
The ship bridge fell silent, and everyone looked at each other until Yu Sheng muttered under his breath: "Holy crap, it really is..."
The fox girl continued her earnest analysis: "This explains why even strong individuals like Master Yuan Hao couldn't perceive the Black Star's 'movent', because it's not a celestial body in motion, but a naturally occurring and fading phenonon. It also explains why so many civilizations in the universe have never observed the existence of the Black Star, can't find where it normally hides — because it truly doesn't exist usually, this phenonon only briefly occurs when conditions are t..."
"And now we can basically confirm that one of the fundantal conditions for this 'phenonon' to occur is the World Bridge..." Yu Sheng followed this line of thought, "So was the encounter with the Black Star by Master Yuan Hao related to the World Bridge too? But where was the World Bridge then... the World Bridge 3700 years ago had already collapsed, and the Hidden Monastery's Gate of Eden hadn't been constructed yet..."
"Should we call in that old chic to take a look? Wasn't he a veteran victim of the Black Star?" Erin suddenly had a spark of inspiration, "Ah! That's right, we also have a second-hand scientist, let's call her over too, she's a veteran victim of the World Bridge..."
Yu Sheng's expression was slightly nuanced as he listened to the little creature's ideas: "What you said actually makes sense, but why does everything sound so gritty coming from your mouth?"
Erin wobbled joyfully: "Just admit if the two of them are veterans or not!"
Yu Sheng already took out his phone at this point.
First, he dialed Master Yuan Hao's boundary communication account.
The phone rang for quite a while before Yu Sheng saw the communication connect, he put the phone to his ear, and before he could speak, he was t with a roar of noise, along with distant and chaotic rumbling.
Then after two seconds, he heard the voice of the old chic entering his ear: "Ah, hello? Is it Yu Sheng, my friend? What is your business?"
Yu Sheng unconsciously swallowed back what he originally wanted to say and frowned, spontaneously speaking: "Are you out there discoing with your lady confidant again?"
"Do not speak nonsense," Master Yuan Hao hastily denied upon hearing, "That was yesterday's business!"
Yu Sheng: "...Then what's your situation now?"
"... Today is the second day of Anning chasing ."
Yu Sheng: "..."
He covered the handset with one hand and explained to those beside him: "The old chic has been caught by his lady confidant again."
After that, he lowered his hand and continued talking to the other side: "We are currently in the Dark teor Domain, and we need your help with sothing."
A flash of thunder rumbled from Master Yuan Hao's side, the old chic's voice sounded on the verge of tears: "Here the situation is what urgently requires help! Just passed Qianfeng Ling Mountain, my two junior brothers locked the mountain gate array not letting in—"
"We have a Black Star here," Yu Sheng interrupted calmly, "Fresh, just erged, if you co late it might vanish."
"...Yu Sheng, just wait a mont, I will return to Qianfeng Ling Mountain imdiately, et at the Cloud Viewing Platform."
"Didn't your two junior brothers lock the mountain gate array?"
"...You call Yuanling first, plead for ."
