Chapter 78: Chapter 69 Riding a Tiger, Hard to Disembark

That night, the dazzling starry sky, devoid of the light pollution from human cities, looked exceptionally brilliant.

Although this area lay at the junction of three world fragments, the starry sky appeared as a whole; just that the sky above Rainforest 01 fragment had one more moon.

“Tsk tsk, I wonder if there’s ever a time when three suns appear at once? And what’s the rule for how these fragments combine? I’m curious if those spots in the sky are other world fragments…”

Under the moonlight, Tao Yu continuously leaped from rooftop to rooftop, while Alien Little Black scuttled beside him, rapidly progressing forward together.

The laws of the Abyss were chaotic and unordered; each world fragment had its distinctions, and the company could only classify and organize based on some of the experiences they have had so far, which was far from understanding them.

“If we’re helpful later, then there’s a reward in line, otherwise, forget about it forever.”

…

Tao Yu turned his head to look at Little Black, his tone very calm.

The rush of air during high-speed movement mingled with the night breeze, whistling past the ears, while Little Black also eagerly growled a few times, as if securing a promise.

Through the mount’s ‘heart-to-heart connection,’ Tao Yu could sense that hint of fear in the depths of Little Black’s heart.

It wasn’t fear of his occasional punishment, but the fear stemmed from the purpose of their journey.

To ensure that Little Black wouldn’t turn on him at a critical moment, Tao Yu had to put in some effort and cajoled it with a case of canned beef.

Even so, the fact that Little Black was betraying the Queen and the other guard Aliens from the nest had it sensing danger from all sides.

Not to mention there were three Pioneers!

Securing the Queen’s egg and creating the scene before them, it was likely that the three Inner City Pioneers were involved—it was indeed troublesome.

“Don’t blame me for pushing you into this risk, The Chosen One has invested so much, I can’t just let it all be for nothing, right~”

Tao Yu half-mockingly confided to Little Black

“What a moron, if it weren’t for the reward, or for not being disturbed during Corpse Refinement later, I couldn’t care less about this.”

Thinking about how Jack had ultimately decided to involve everyone, Tao Yu let out a weary sigh.

Perhaps, this is what it means to be ‘The Chosen One.’

A hotheaded fool, seems to be the standard for many ‘The Chosen Ones’…

Soon after, Tao Yu and Alien had already reached the outskirts of Henderson City under the cover of night, exactly from the direction Tao Yu had originally entered.

The zombie hordes down below looked as chaotic as ever.

After climbing down from the rooftop, Tao Yu also found the motorbike he had ridden over on earlier.

“Learn from this, putting up a tough backside that also chafes, next time I’ll fit a cushion for you.”

Tao Yu mounted the motorbike, remembering the terrible experience of wanting Alien to carry him only to have his butt nearly jolted off, he felt some indignation towards his ride.

Then he twisted the throttle and sped off towards the direction of the desert, with Little Black racing along beside the bike, guiding Tao Yu through the ‘heart-to-heart connection’!

Towards the direction of the Alien nest!

The terrain on the side of the Rainforest fragment was higher than the zombie world by ten meters, and the ground on the Rainforest side was even higher by several meters. In addition, with the towering trees originally present in the Rainforest, that direction looked oppressively dark.

The Alien Queen’s nest was right inside a cave on the elevated terrain of the Rainforest side.

It could look after the Rainforest’s wildlife while also expanding its influence into Zombie World, having ample material to conduct their trials.

The world barrier was likely opened by some kind of Inner City technique, albeit just a small gap.

After riding for about twenty kilometers, Tao Yu stopped and propped the motorbike against a giant withered cactus.

Approaching the destination, Tao Yu used his powerful vision in the barren desert to spot Aliens lurking in the distance under the cover of night.

And even heard the sound of the motorbike, with some responding and heading in this direction.

“Time to test your abilities, triple threat.”

Tao Yu noticed the three Aliens speeding in his direction, and after ensuring his own scent was masked by the wind, he hid himself behind a cactus nearby.

Conserve strength if possible, no need to fire a gun from this position…

Before long, the three Aliens arrived nearby, quickly surrounding their seemingly stranded comrade and urgently hissing, saliva flying everywhere.

And Tao Yu’s own Little Black was also lowly howling in front of its companions as if exchanging information.

Every so often, Little Black would brush its tail over the cracked areas on its body, seemingly complaining about something.

Then the three newly arrived Aliens almost simultaneously turned their gaze towards the city.

Probably Little Black had told them about being attacked over there.

The three Aliens didn’t suspect anything amiss, being quite simple-minded.

Then, the next moment, Little Black took the opportunity to get close and burst one Alien’s head with its most powerful secondary mouth, splattering green blood.

Aliens knew their own weaknesses well, and Little Black’s swift, ferocious, and accurate sneak attack caught them off guard.

In the middle of its stealth attack, Little Black’s tail also lashed out at another companion, causing it to stagger with a full-force tail whip.

But it must be said, Aliens are indeed born for combat—the remaining two reacted quickly to the ambush, launching a counterattack immediately.

They didn’t understand why their fellow was attacking them, but for such ruthless creatures, fighting was in their bones!

Before Little Black launched the stealth attack, Tao Yu had already pounced out. As the fight ensued, Little Black absorbed the brunt of the initial damage, protecting its vital spots, but was left oozing green blood from all over under the flanking attack.
