Chapter 1142 Borrowing a Body, Starting in Fifth Gear!

Time shifted back a few minutes.

The Black Star Palace battlefield.

Evil Energy Aggregation descended here, gradually changing the nature of the surrounding space. Purple and green colors spread out, and the range was slowly expanding.

In the descending area, countless energy tentacles danced wildly. The surrounding defense fleet continued to fire at the tentacles, blasting one apart, only for another to appear, as if endlessly.

In some theories that agree with the conservation of universal energy, the law of conservation of energy operates on multiple dimensions. In many experiments of interstellar civilizations, examples of energy disappearing or appearing out of thin air occur. In most cases, it is the transfer of energy between the main universe and other dimensions, manifesting as if it happened out of nowhere.

There are many forms of secondary dimension descent. The Traveler used one that treated the secondary dimension like a bucket, punching a hole at the bottom, and letting the water inside spurt out and pour into the main universe, creating an erosion effect.

The Traveler didn't exert much effort, just punched a hole, like drilling a hole in a dam. The subsequent erosion was the outflow of the secondary dimension's own power, completely beyond the scope of individual power, a completely different magnitude of event. Therefore, the momentum of the descent was extremely difficult to contain, so the Black Star Palace fleet found it difficult to quickly resolve the issue of the secondary dimension's descent.

In the center of the battlefield, Ames was fiercely fighting the Traveler. The majestic Force Field and the energy of the Evil Energy Aggregation collided continuously, bursting out intense aftershocks.

Force Field espers were good at defense and control, coupled with the flexible Void abilities, resulting in the Traveler being in the upper hand, but unable to quickly break through Ames' defense. However, Ames was not happy.

"The Evil Energy Aggregation area is his home ground. He has a constant supply of energy to replenish, and can recklessly consume my strength. A prolonged battle is not in my favor."

Ames secretly analyzed the situation, and had to admit that the Traveler had some skills. He could have mixed in the three major civilizations and become a mid-to-high-level combat force.

Although she herself had improved in these twenty years, she still lacked the strength to fight such a powerful enemy alone.

"Resistance is meaningless. It's only a matter of time before you lose to me." As the erosion of the Evil Energy Aggregation deepened, the Traveler's eerie temperament grew stronger.

Ames turned a deaf ear, concentrating on manipulating the Force Field to deal with the ubiquitous purple and green energy tentacles.

On the observation deck outside the Black Star Palace, many officers had solemn expressions. With the Black Star Palace's defense measures, they were not worried about the Traveler causing much damage, but Ames' situation was not optimistic. Everyone constantly directed more fleets to take off and join the battle to help.

The Silver Shadow on the side was expressionless, but his heart was eager to act. Although the Black Star Army officers had not asked him to take action, seeing Ames at a disadvantage, he felt his chance to perform had come.

Just then, a few ships with the Black Star Army logo appeared on the edge of the field of vision, sailing from afar.

"Let these transport ships bypass the battlefield and return," Melos said.

These returning ships had already been reported internally, marked as transport ships. Everyone present was focused on the battlefield at this time, not paying attention to them. They just glanced at these transport ships and then shifted their gazes, continuing to nervously watch the battle between Ames and the Traveler.

However, at the next moment, the radar suddenly sounded an alarm!

"Alarm! Alarm! A sudden appearance of a Beyond Grade A energy source detected!"

"What!"

The many officers present were shocked and hurriedly looked at the radar, only to see the energy source was in the transport ships.

"Could it be the enemy..." Everyone's expression changed, and they immediately became nervous.

But before everyone could react, the next scene stunned the officers present.

Buzz!

Familiar death energy surged out of the transport ships, like a tsunami. Hela's figure stood on the crest of the wave, flying rapidly toward the Black Star Palace.

"Vice Army Commander Hela!"

"Sister?!"

Everyone looked stunned, and Aurora was even more dumbfounded.

Aren't you at the front line? How could you be in this place?

If it weren't for the mental link, Aurora would have almost thought the person in front of her was a fake.

However, the most confused person was the Traveler. Turning his head to see this scene, his madly laughing expression immediately froze on his face.

Damn, why is Hela here?!

His mission was to distract Black Star's attention, helping the people attacking Hela to contain Black Star... But Hela is here, so did the people on the front line attack air?

What am I containing!

He couldn't figure it out. In the end, he could only attribute it to Sorokin... a scammer! An unscrupulous seller! False information is killing people!

Since Hela appeared here, continuing the mission was meaningless. He didn't want to continue to entangle with the Black Star Army.

The Traveler decisively gave up the entanglement and ran wildly into the distance. How could Ames let him leave as he pleased? She immediately switched from defense to offense, unleashing a barrage of attacks.

Hela glared at the Traveler, but did not immediately join the battle.

She kept Han Xiao's instructions in mind, quickly entered the observation deck, and without bothering with the many puzzled officers, went straight to the Silver Shadow.

"Put on this armor. Black Star wants to see you."

"Ah?"

Silver Shadow was at a loss.

"There's no time to explain. Get in the car."

Without saying a word, Hela canceled *The Ruler*. *The Ruler* immediately put itself on the Silver Shadow.

In the next moment, the Silver Shadow with a confused face instantly disappeared in place, without a trace.

After completing this matter, Hela finally had time to breathe a sigh of relief.

The surrounding officers immediately surrounded her.

"Why are you here? Where is His Excellency Black Star?"

Hadaway asked.

Mentioning this matter, Hela felt a pain in her heart, and her face darkened.

Her impression to the army officers had always been of a cold and powerful woman. Seeing her showing such a lost look at this time, the officers were shocked and couldn't help but guess in the worst direction.

Could it be... the Black Star Army Commander encountered an accident?!

"Sister..." Aurora noticed Hela's low mood and couldn't help but pull her hand, looking worried.

"I owe him... too much."

Hela closed her eyes slightly, her fists clenched, as if talking to herself:

"You treat me like this, how can I ever repay you..."

...

At this moment, Han Xiao took the Silver Shadow away from the devastated frontline base. The players and other warriors took care of cleaning up the battlefield. He didn't delay any time, taking advantage of the character summon card's effect to go and find Gorutan for trouble.

Hela's attack, the information was actively leaked by Gorutan. Although Hela's ability was special, she would have to experience this tribulation sooner or later, but it didn't mean that Han Xiao wanted to let go of Gorutan, who caused this disaster.

On the way to Gorutan's territory, Han Xiao made his request to the Silver Shadow...

"You want to use my body?"

Silver Shadow looked terrified.

He didn't understand the effect of *The Ruler* and didn't dare to ask. He was confused as to why he was brought here by Black Star. Hearing Han Xiao's words, Silver Shadow panicked.

So you are such a Black Star! You are plotting my flesh!

"Although that's what I meant, I feel like you misunderstood something." Han Xiao said helplessly, "I just want you to help me with something, just as a transaction for the right to use the Evolution Cube."

"You scared me. I thought you wanted to catch me and turn me into a special weapon like the Mechanical Empire." Hearing this, Silver Shadow breathed a sigh of relief.

"...Oh, that makes sense too." Han Xiao coughed and changed the subject, saying solemnly: "Your body has hidden characteristics. When you awaken, you can turn yourself into a special universe treasure. I need you to transform and help me with this."

"How do you know?" Silver Shadow was curious. He didn't even know about this matter. Why did an outsider know more about his body than he did?

"Remember the first time we met? When we sparred, I controlled your body and conducted a detailed exploration. At that time, I discovered that your body was hiding a secret, possibly a mutation that occurred during the Beyond Grade A transformation." Han Xiao immediately began to display his talent for talking nonsense.

In fact, he had already scanned the Silver Shadow and pulled out the other party's attribute panel, seeing the skill to transform into a universe treasure in the Silver Shadow's skill list.

However, normal people do not have panels and cannot clearly know all the abilities they possess like himself and the players. Silver Shadow was such a case. He did not know that he possessed such a skill.

In this case, as long as he guided him and made him aware of this hidden skill, he might be able to use it directly.

"Okay, what should I do?" Silver Shadow reluctantly accepted this statement.

"Can you feel it in this direction?"

Han Xiao didn't have a specific method. Before, the Silver Shadow hadn't thought about it in this way. Now that he had made him aware of this, perhaps he could directly awaken. It was like someone who had been working out for a long time, not challenging themselves, wouldn't know that they could do many difficult movements.

Silver Shadow was skeptical, but he had no choice but to try, holding the idea of ​​turning into a universe treasure, controlling his body to slowly change.

The silver body quickly turned into a pool of liquid metal, constantly changing shape, looking for the feeling.

After a while, a subtle aura suddenly emanated. The Silver Shadow took the initiative to cling to Han Xiao's body, the silver liquid metal wrapped around Han Xiao's whole body, like a layer of patina, turning him into a silver human.

"So I really have this ability!" Silver Shadow was startled by himself.

Seeing this, Han Xiao's eyes lit up, looked at the panel's prompts, and showed a satisfied smile.

"I told you, you do have special potential."

At this time, the panel showed that the Silver Shadow had transformed into a universe treasure-level equipment, worn on his body, sharing his amazing defense and speed, while also sharing many skills, which could be used as long as he rode the Silver Shadow.

Moreover, the feeling of wearing the Silver Shadow was very comfortable, like sitting in a luxury car. The seats and interior made Han Xiao feel very comfortable.

On the other side, the Silver Shadow felt this novel feeling and secretly made a decision.

——In the future, I must get closer to Black Star. This guy easily detected his own undiscovered potential. His insight is too terrifying. If Black Star can help him discover the mysteries of his body, then his growth will definitely be much faster.

Having discovered his hidden potential, Silver Shadow was very happy and did not reject lending his body to Han Xiao, allowing him to control it.

The two ran through things for a while, and Han Xiao gradually became familiar with the operation of this good car and couldn't put it down.

"Let's go, let's rush!"

Then, without saying a word, he started directly in fifth gear.

Bang!

Silver Shadow's acceleration ability exploded, and the speed seemed to rise endlessly. Han Xiao turned into a silver meteor, quickly disappearing into the universe.

...

Somewhere in the Emerald Star Cluster, a portal quickly formed in space, spitting out three figures.

"Phew, finally got out."

Sagman's tense nerves finally relaxed, looking at the direction of the battlefield, his expression complex and still with lingering fears.

Speaking of which, the strength that Black Star erupted was too scary. It felt like if they ran a little slower, they would be caught and taken away by him...

Everyone couldn't help but be thankful that Black Star was chasing Shining and didn't come after the Void Spirit.

He turned his head and exchanged glances with Taylor Di and Metthos. The three of them had the same emotions in their eyes:

——That was close, almost went back for a second visit.

"Lord Kothuye is wise. Turning to help Black Star deal with Shining not only contained Black Star so that he wouldn't come after us, but also struck at Shining's forces. Although the mission failed, Lord Kothuye can be considered to have contributed." Taylor Di said with emotion.

Thinking of the miserable state of Shining's side, the three of them felt relieved and admired Kothuye's decision even more.

"It's just... Tolaine on our side was caught by Black Star, which is also a trouble." Sagman shook his head.

"Hey, what's the big deal? It's just a little suffering. When he's released, he'll have something in common with us."

"Haha, that makes sense."

Although they lost a teammate, the three of them didn't care much and were in a happy mood.

The atmosphere on Shining's side was completely the opposite, full of gloom.

The High-Dimensional Apocalypse Teleporter brought Shining's fleet back to the territory across the star cluster. The high-ranking officials who had been waiting at the teleportation location to receive Hela were stunned when they saw the miserable state of the troops.

"Six Beyond Grade As, and only the two of you came back?!"

Listening to the high-ranking official's horrified questioning, Sierron looked extremely ugly.

If he didn't care about the consequences and fought head-on, he asked himself that he could fight evenly with Black Star in his erupted form. Unfortunately, the Martial Dao system was like a sharp knife. All the combat power was concentrated in the body. Protecting teammates was really not something he was good at.

Thinking that under his leadership, so many Beyond Grade A teammates were lost and that Black Star had beaten them to the point of losing everything, Sierron was shaking with anger.

It was simply a great humiliation!

This was bound to make the Mechanical Empire laugh!

The higher-ups would definitely think that his ability to lead troops was far inferior to the Mechanical Empire, so he could only rely on Mennyson even more...

That's right, and that bastard Kothuye. If it weren't for him, Shining wouldn't have suffered such a great loss.

Sierron bit his teeth hard.

——Kothuye, wait, the Mechanical Empire will definitely come looking for you!

...

Near a stargate station somewhere in the Emerald Star Cluster, a fleet was fighting with a mechanical army. The most conspicuous figure in the battlefield was a figure shuttling back and forth, wrapped in a deep brown Martial Dao aura, which was Beast Ancestor Gorutan.

His opponents were more than a dozen apostle weapons under the command of the Mechanical Empire, with different forms and powerful combat power. Together, they fought Gorutan to a draw.

Since Gorutan came to rescue the fleet, the two sides had been fighting for a long time.

"Mechanical Empire, it's useless for you to stop me!"

Gorutan fought with the apostle weapons while speaking in a deep voice:

"Black Star's frontline base was attacked. Maybe Hela is already dead now. Even if you don't let me destroy the stargate station, the Empire's reinforcements won't make it in time. In this situation, Hela is bound to die."

He still didn't know the specific progress of the scene, and his impression was still stuck when Sorokin informed him that Hela was in a desperate situation.

Destroying the surrounding stargate stations, in his opinion, was just the icing on the cake. He still didn't think that Hela had any chance to overcome the desperate situation.

Mennyson turned a deaf ear, only the apostle weapons were still dutifully entangled with Gorutan.

"Are you going to let people go!"

Seeing that the Mechanical Empire didn't respond, Gorutan became even more angry.

Mennyson still didn't react.

"You're really not giving up. Wait, the news of Hela's death will soon be transmitted. By then, you'll know that everything you're doing now is in vain." Gorutan was annoyed.

Mennyson still didn't respond, but silently intercepted all the information sent to Gorutan by outsiders on the virtual level...

It wasn't that no one told Gorutan what happened, it's just that he couldn't receive external news at all!

The methods of the Virtual Mechanic were imperceptible. Gorutan was completely kept in the dark and was still immersed in the joy of revenge, only feeling that the plan was successful.

Gorutan was angered by Mennyson's attitude of ignoring him. Just as he was about to continue saying something, he suddenly had an intuition, turned his head to look into the distance, and showed a puzzled look.

A silver meteor suddenly broke into the field of vision, approaching quickly at an incredible speed!

A sense of inexplicable crisis suddenly rose in Gorutan's mind.
