Chapter 1707: Chapter 5: Starry Sky Fishing
Jia Yanâs heart pounded wildly, finally, for the first time, he took these so-called space ghosts seriously.
A conglomerate that possesses a Star-level entity, no matter what it is, Jia Yan cannot underestimate it.
âNo, this guyâs body probably doesnât have the actual Stellar level combat power. Of course, my assessment might not be accurate, since I have no real understanding of such beings.â
No matter what, now itâs a situation of many enemies against few. Even if a Middle Rank Stellar creature encounters them, it is likely to avoid the confrontation for the time being.
He quickly made a decision!
Jia Yanâs Brainwave Power roared, directly dispersing the group of Space Ghosts surrounding him, then the Adisa pushed through the distorted space, fleeing into the distanceâŠ
The massive Space Ghost conglomerate behind seemed to just want to drive Jia Yan away, showing no intention of pursuing, and quickly vanished behind.
âThese Space Ghosts, they really are as one!â
After escaping for hundreds of thousands of kilometers, Jia Yan finally stopped the Adisa, looking back, seemingly lost in thought.
âThese Space Ghosts are faintly peculiar, even when I previously exposed a lower layer, I felt a tinge of longing. Could it be that there is something beneficial to me inside that entity?â
Jia Yanâs eyes shone brightly, faintly feeling that these Space Ghosts were something valuable, but thereâs nothing he could do now.
âForget it, for now, letâs use the avatar to establish a foothold on this White Seed Star. Perhaps we could get some intel on the Space Ghosts. But of course, first and foremost, we need to repair the Adisa.â
After thinking for a moment, Jia Yan instructed the Adisa to distance itself further from the Space Ghostsâ location, focusing his entire heart and mind on his avatar.
The avatar at this moment gained the appreciation of a group of Starry Sky Level Strong Ones on the Mining Star, instantly rising in status.
It wonât take a few days before they can accompany the next mining ship to one of the moons of the White Seed Star to undergo the university entrance test.
Such matters are trivial. While dealing with inquiries from several Starry Sky Level Strong Ones, Jia Yan simultaneously gathered intelligence on the White Seed Star.
However, unbeknownst to Jia Yan.
Where he was previously exploring the Subspace, an enormous sphere silently revolved.
But just when it began to regain its calm, a series of metal-made âfishhooksâ quietly extended into the Subspace interior from the normal spaceâŠ
The countless bee-like creatures, upon sensing the bait on these hooks, reacted as if they had smelled something extremely enticing, swarming instantly!
Numerous bee-like machines flew onto these hooks, their mechanical mouths biting onto the hooks but were entirely ensnared and unable to move.
The larger bee-like machines, seeing the smaller ones immobilized, displayed puzzlement, approached, only to be attracted by the larger hooks, opening their mouths and biting onto these hooks.
Yet when they bit into the hooks, it seemed like the hooks had achieved their purpose, moving at once!
The hooks swiftly retracted from the Subspace, leaving the countless bee-like creatures shocked at the scene.
Wanting to escape was too late; they were dragged out of the Subspace directly!
These countless hooks, just pulled out of the Subspace, were suddenly controlled by a terrifying brainwave power that captured the small bee-like creatures flying out.
The larger ones didnât escape either. Instead, they were drawn by the brainwave power to a massive creatureâs side.
The massive creature appeared like a dog bear, its body stretching as vast as two kilometers. Seeing these lured big bee-like âSpace Ghostsâ, the bear showed a smile.
It controlled the brainwave power, one by one removing the large mechanicals from the hooks, extending its paw and patting them on each large mechanical.
These large mechanicals, reaching two to three meters in size, unexpectedly spewed out streams of white liquid!
âHa, this timeâs harvest isnât bad either, these little ones are so adorable.â
The massive dog bear creature seemed extremely pleased with the white liquid it saw in front of it.
âHey, thatâs strange, these Space Ghosts only release large amounts of liquid onto other individuals when threatened as preparation for future division and reproduction. But I havenât disturbed them by entering Subspace for a while, so why is there so much liquid?â
The dog bear creature, puzzled, scratched its head.
âPerhaps itâs a unique situation. Even on the starry sky battlefield, Space Ghosts, originating from the Milky Way Central, are not well understoodâŠâ
This dog bear-like creature never considered that a supremely powerful Stellar level being could have entered its controlled region, as there hadnât been any news.
âThese bigger ones die once caught; for the sake of future liquid, the smaller ones canât all be killed, letâs release them back.â
The dog bear creature removed all the small Space Ghosts from the hooks at once. These smaller Space Ghosts, surprisingly unaware of such a close presence, flew around in confusion for a while and then, without realizing any unusual circumstance, returned to the Subspace.
After a while, the greatly rewarded dog bear creature directly boarded a craft and headed back toward the central area of the White Seed Star!
If the creatures on the Mining Star could see him, they would definitely be shocked and scream.
Because this bear-like creature is the absolute ruler of this White Seed Star, regarded by all creatures as a god-like existenceâthe White Seed Star Overlord.
A few days quickly passed.
On this day, the first batch of mineral resources from the Mining Star was about to be sent out.
And Jia Yan would follow this mineral shipment to head towards the White Seed Star satellite.
âJia Yan, if you become a strong one, donât forget about us in the future.â
The octopod creature was reluctant to part with Jia Yan, and the squirrel-like creature beside it also showed big teary eyes.
âSigh, I will.â
Jia Yan let out a long sigh.
To him, this hiding process was just a fun experience, but to these two miner companions, it was an unforgettable journey in life, and they even developed genuine camaraderie towards Jia Yan.
However, Jia Yan was not them, and he was already a strong one now, so his feelings towards these two creatures were not strong.
âWell, since Iâm leaving, I should leave something for them.â
After pondering for a while, Jia Yan, while the spaceship hadnât started yet, used his Brainwave Power to take the two creatures to a secluded place, and his Brainwave Power surged!
As a stellar-level strong one, helping an ordinary creature activate the basics of strong oneâs Brainwave Power was something he could already do.
Before long, these two creatures had activated their Brainwave Power, becoming two genuine Earth-level strong ones!
However, Jia Yan only helped up to this point, not because he couldnât help further, but because what he did was already enough, and continuing would exceed his expectations.
The two creatures who fainted woke up to find themselves having become Earth-level strong ones, they would be overjoyed, needless to say.
Jia Yan had already boarded the spaceship heading towards the Mining Star of the White Seed Star, flying into the vast universe.
âTo the creatures here, this White Seed Star, whether itâs a planet in the Stellar Battlefield or not, is their homeland, their place of survival.â
Jia Yan looked at this starry sky, even if it looked no different from the starry sky heâd seen before, to Jia Yan now with starry sky level perspective, it was a completely different place than what heâd known before.
But no matter the differences, the ordinary creatures living here were still living as exceptionally ordinary beings.
âRunning this place well, that so-called White Seed Star Overlord must be a decent guy too, I guess.â
Jia Yan had a moment of clarity in his mind, then shook his head. To him, if there was something necessary, regardless of what kind of strong one it was, Jia Yan would take action.
The starry sky journey was vast, and after a few days on the mineral spaceship, Jia Yanâs ship received another batch of creatures, taking a ride from another Mining Star along the way.
This group of creatures included those who had received university recommendation letters, and a few others were going home to visit family.
âDid you also get a recommendation slot? Me too, letâs get to know each other. I heard in university, people often bully students like us who come from the bottom, so if we both get into university, we should look after each other.â
This creature, who also received a university recommendation slot, was a bird-like creature with black feathers, clearly an outgoing type, expressing great warmth towards Jia Yan.
However, Jia Yan didnât respond too enthusiastically.
After all, he wasnât really interested in any university slots, he was just going through the motions, checking out the White Seed Star Overlordâs reality, and deciding how to repair the Adisa.
He had even prepared for the worst-case scenario: if negotiations couldnât be reached, he might directly annihilate the White Seed Star Overlord if necessary!
Having barely dealt with the overly friendly bird-like creature, Jia Yan didnât engage much with others along the way.
Half a month passed, and the spaceship arrived at the central area of the White Seed Star.
âSo thatâs the White Seed Star? Itâs actually this large!â
Upon seeing the White Seed Star from afar, Jia Yan was amazed.
Because the White Seed Star appeared to be over thirty thousand kilometers in diameter to him, which is about three times the diameter of Earth. Although it hadnât reached the gigantic level of stars in the Chaos Starfield, it was still an awe-inspiring giant.
âYou two lucky ones, come with me. There just happens to be an exam for the recommendation slots in two days. Under normal circumstances, many recommended students have to wait two to three months for an exam. You both have good luck.â
The mineral spaceship wasnât heading to the main body of the White Seed Star, but to one of the seven or eight satellites orbiting it.
This satellite was clearly an artificial star, but its size far exceeded that of ordinary artificial satellites, having over five hundred kilometers in diameter.
