Chapter 471: The Strength Of A One Star Adventurer!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
A powerful figure with one eye and four arms appeared in the sky above the Star Lord Mansion. His Domain Realm aura made everyone present feel suffocated.
“Necrolis… You actually invited a domain lord.”
Ulmers looked up at the one-eyed, four-armed figure with a heavy expression.
“Hahaha!” Necrolis laughed sinisterly. “My dear brother, do you think I’ll return to Beta Planet unprepared?”
“Lord Brook, please kill him!”
He said respectfully to the one-eyed, four-armed figure above.
Brook’s single purple eye looked down coldly at Ulmers and said,
“Kill yourself!”
When Ulmers met Brook’s cold gaze, he immediately felt an overwhelming pressure on his consciousness.
“Is this… the strength of a Domain Lord? Even if I look like I’m only half a step away from a Domain Lord… the difference in strength is like the difference between heaven and earth.”
Ulmers was silent for a moment, then did something that shocked everyone.
He suddenly cupped his hands at the Star Lord’s Mansion and said respectfully,
“Lord Black Thunder, please make your move!”
Almost as soon as Ulmers finished speaking, an afterimage rushed out of the depths of the Star Lord Residence and appeared in front of everyone at lightning speed.
This was a cosmic Human who was about three meters tall. He looked similar to humans on Earth, but there were blood-colored stripes on both sides of his face.
He held a thick black saber in his hand.
However, the most eye-catching thing was the blood-colored medal on his chest.
H
It’s him!”
The moment Chu Zhou saw Lord Black Thunder, he recognized him as the one-star Universe Adventurer he had seen in the starry sky not long ago.
“This… This is a one-star Universe Adventurer!”
In the dark, many experts who were paying attention to this place were also greatly shaken at this moment.
He was even more shocked than when he’d seen Brook appear.
“Ulmers, you actually hired a Universe Adventurer!” Necrolis was shocked and furious.
Universe Adventurers were one of the fiercest and most powerful groups of Humans in the universe. Every one of them was an elite among elites.
However, the price to hire Universe Adventurers was shockingly high.
Even the richest people on Normal Planets in the Milky Way Empire could not afford to hire Universe Adventurers.
Necrolis had thought that it was already ‘shocking’ that he could invite a Domain Lord, but he did not expect Ulmers to be even more ruthless and hire a Universe Adventurer directly.
Brook’s pupils constricted when he saw Lord Black Thunder.
“Sir, my teacher is Talon from the Milky Way Empire… Can you give up this quest for my teacher’s sake?”
“As for your loss, our Talon Family will make up for it.” Brook spoke.
“Talon? I know. But it’s impossible for me to give up the quest just because of his name!”
Lord Black Thunder said coldly and attacked directly.
He swung the thick black saber in his hand at lightning speed.
In an instant, the Metal Laws of the Void spread.
A dazzling black saber light tore through the air.
The black blade light was like a huge black crescent moon rising from the horizon, emitting incomparably intense law fluctuations.
It emitted a sharp aura that could cut through everything.
In an instant, be it the Star Guards, the cosmic bandits, or Chu Zhou and the others who were secretly watching the battle, they all felt as if their souls and bodies had been destroyed at the same time.
Brook’s expression changed drastically when he saw the black saber beam coming at him.
“Blood Devour!”
He roared angrily and poured all his origin power into the blood-red saber in his hand. He used the ultimate technique that he had cultivated for many years, Blood Devour.
In an instant, the blood-colored saber in his hand shot out like a blood-colored lightning at ten thousand times the speed of sound.
However, when the blood-colored lightning collided with the black moon-like scimitar, it was instantly broken.
A broken blood-colored saber flew to the ground and stabbed into it.
Almost at the same time, Brook’s body was cut into two by the black saber light.
Moreover, the body that had been broken into two was still breaking into smaller pieces. It was as if an invisible knife was continuously slashing at Brook’s body.
Boom!!!
All of a sudden, a magnificent star field the size of an acre appeared, enveloping all of Brook’s body fragments. It instantly rushed out of Beta City and into space.
Lord Black Thunder looked coldly at the beautiful star field that was getting further and further away. He swung his saber again and slashed out fiercely.
An extremely sharp black saber light slashed into the magnificent star field.
“Ah—”
An incomparably miserable scream came from the magnificent Star Field.
The light of the entire Star Field became incomparably dim.
Moreover, that star domain was trembling violently, on the verge of collapse.
However, in the end, the star domain did not collapse and disappeared into the horizon.
“Lord Brook… was defeated.”
Necrolis was dumbfounded when he saw Brook fleeing in defeat.
In the next moment, he turned around and fled out of Beta City.
However, just as he moved, a black saber beam pierced through his body.
He turned into a corpse and fell in front of the Star Lord Mansion.
“The employment quest has been completed! The rest is up to you!”
Lord Black Thunder said calmly to Ulmers.
The next moment, he took out a golden dragon shaped universe ship from his interspatial ring and left.
“Farewell, Lord Black Thunder!”
Ulmers cupped his hands respectfully until the golden dragon-shaped spaceship disappeared from sight.
“As expected, Universe Adventurers are all elites among humans. They are much stronger than ordinary martial artists of the same level.”
“That Brook is also a powerful Domain Lord, but he couldn’t withstand a single slash from Lord Black Thunder!”
Chu Zhou was also watching Lord Black Thunder leave. When he recalled the other party’s powerful slash just now, he felt a chill in his heart.
If he were to face such a blade now, he would probably be instantly killed.
“I’ll apply to take the Universe Adventurer assessment as soon as I become a
Domain Lord…”
Chu Zhou made a decision in his heart.
“Run…”
In the sky above the Star Lord’s Mansion, more than 1,600 space bandits were fighting the Star Guards.
Seeing that Brook was defeated and Necrolis was killed, the cosmic bandits immediately realized that something was wrong and fled out of Beta City like frightened birds.
“Necrolis, the winner is still me!”
Ulmers looked at Necrolis’ corpse and smiled coldly.
Then, he glanced at his many subordinates. When he saw that his subordinates had been severely reduced and that eight of his capable subordinates at the ninth level of the Star Realm had even died, the anger in his heart soared crazily.
When he thought about the huge price he had paid to hire Lord Black Thunder, the anger in his heart soared again.
“Star Guard, listen up! Destroy all these bandits one by one!” he roared.
Then, he said to Chu Zhou and the other hidden spectators,
“Everyone, these cosmic bandits have committed all kinds of crimes. They’re really a group of pests… Please take action and destroy these pests.”
“You’re right, Star Lord. We’ll kill them now.”
The “power struggle” between Ulmers and Necrolis had come to an end. The experts of the major factions and families on Beta Planet were also willing to give Ulmers face.
Hence, they began to take action to hunt down the space bandits who were fleeing everywhere.
Chu Zhou was more proactive than the others. In his eyes, those cosmic bandits were walking attribute points. How could he miss such a good opportunity to harvest attribute points?
Without using Space Leap, he pushed his speed to the limit and turned into a fast afterimage, crazily hunting down one cosmic bandit after another.
His current strength far exceeded that of an ordinary Ninth Level Star Realm.
Therefore, none of the cosmic bandits were his match.
Basically, as long as he caught up, he would be instantly killed.
Chu Zhou’s body had been modified time and time again by the spatial power of laws and already possessed strong spatial Stats.
Even without using the Space Leap Profound, his speed was dozens of times faster than an ordinary Ninth Level Star Realm.
Therefore, his afterimages almost covered the entire Beta City. More than 1,600 cosmic bandits who were fleeing were directly killed by him alone.
His killing speed and efficiency were much higher than that of Star Lord Ulmers and the other Ninth Level Star Realm experts in Beta City.
It also shocked Ulmers and all the Ninth Level experts in Beta City.
“Gasp, who exactly is this person? When did our Beta City have such a terrifying ninth level Star State expert?”
“That’s terrible. This man is at least as strong as a Star Lord. I think 1’11 be killed instantly if I fight him.”
“That shouldn’t be the case! Logically speaking, we should know that such a person has settled in Beta City!”
Many Ninth Level Star Realm experts in Beta City looked at the afterimages Chu Zhou left behind in shock.
They were filled with doubts. The circle of Ninth Level Star Realm martial artists in Beta City was not big. In the entire circle, there were only about 150 to 160 people. Basically, everyone knew each other.
However, they had never seen Chu Zhou before.
ii
Is he… Chu Zhou?”
Ulmers recognized Chu Zhou.
He was equally shocked.
He knew that as a first-class talent, Chu Zhou was definitely not simple.
However, he did not expect Chu Zhou to be so extraordinary.
Without a doubt, Chu Zhou’s strength far exceeded that of a Ninth Level Star Realm martial artist.
As someone who was half a step into the Domain Realm, Ulmers’ strength far exceeded the usual Ninth Level Star Realm.
He had never fought Chu Zhou before. He did not know who was stronger.
However, he was certain of one thing. With the terrifying speed that Chu Zhou had displayed… he could not do anything to Chu Zhou.
In other words, Chu Zhou was already invincible before the competition even started.
“The price paid for this battle is indeed very high… However, it doesn’t seem to be a loss to be on good terms with a monster like Chu Zhou!”
Ulmers thought to himself. A smile appeared on his face as he flew towards
Chu Zhou..
