Chapter 315: Chapter 258 Arrival_3

The massive eyeball began to wither, and once it had shriveled to a certain extent, Zheng Yichen kicked it, causing the eyeball to shatter like a stone in midair, plummeting toward the distant ground.

"The consumption of sacrificing a city, tsk!" Zheng Yichen free-fell onto the motorcycle as Hellfire swept past him and the bike, and then he approached the signal-lit transporter.

Inside the boarding passage, Essen was already waiting, his expression concealed beneath the mask of his protective suit.

The man first checked on Zheng Yichen’s condition, "You’re not having any issues with your injuries, are you?"

There were intersecting scars on Zheng Yichen’s body which were slowly healing, and it would take some more time before they fully recovered.

And then there were Zheng Yichen’s eyes, the whites of which had turned red, somewhat disconcerting.

"Nothing serious, they’ll recover in a while," Zheng Yichen rubbed his eyes. His enhanced vision persisted, so Essen, in his eyes, looked almost like an ’x-ray image.’

However, this kind of perspicacity was made through special observation of heat sources, allowing him to finely see the heat emitted from his blood flow and bodily organs, which was much better than his previous normal thermal vision.

Essen was not weak. Apart from the normal heat emitted from his body, there were some special ’heat sources’ that seemed to be some kind of special power.

Cold liquid flowed over Zheng Yichen’s wounds, making him shiver. The stuff wouldn’t freeze him, but it stung like alcohol when it touched a wound on a normal person, a bracing pain.

After the cleansing, once they had entered the transporter, Essen immediately removed his protective helmet, "That thing just now... what was it?"

He really hadn’t expected to encounter something like that before.

"It might be an immune system cultivated by this living planet," Zheng Yichen looked at the wounds on his body, "After all, I set a city on fire before, so it’s normal for the planet to have a bigger reaction."

"Or maybe that place was the planet’s eye, and I blinded one of its eyes, making it angry."

Essen, somewhat speechless, said, "...including this time, that makes it twice, right?"

"One eye is nothing," Zheng Yichen clenched his fist. Defeating that ’Eye of the Planet’ had drained the accumulated energy from erasing Mo City, causing the wounds left by those red lights and other attacks not to have healed even now.

"Do you have a spare set of clothes? Get me one."

Essen nodded, "I’ve had some prepared."

Soon, Zheng Yichen, dressed in a combat suit from this world, arrived in the cockpit. Not seeing the Dusk milestone from the front view, he hurriedly said, "You’re off course, turn right."

"...This, isn’t this deviation too severe?" The pilot clicked his tongue, hurriedly signaling the rear transporters with signal lights, and heaved a sigh of relief after correcting the trajectory.

The people in the cockpit didn’t know what to say when they looked at Zheng Yichen. They hadn’t seen the full extent of his battle with the fleshy ball, but they had felt the aftermath. A massive entity, about two kilometers in diameter, had been taken down by Zheng Yichen?

Especially when that thing had been split in two, were these the powers a human should possess?

Afterward, they encountered no further obstacles. Upon seeing the location of Dusk, cheers erupted in the cockpit, "It really hasn’t been affected! This is great!"

"...Morley, the rest is up to you," Essen said as he looked at the increasingly close Dusk Cathedral, speaking to a younger man.

"Boss... I got it!" Morley wanted to say something to persuade him otherwise, but ultimately, he didn’t speak what he had wanted to say. The others in the cockpit looked at Essen with some confusion too, considering his high status in their hearts—without Essen, they wouldn’t have been able to find that frozen base, let alone survive in that environment for over two months.

"For some reasons, I can’t go to Dusk, so the rest is on you guys, lads! You’re safe now! There’s no need for you to come along. Give me some dignity," Essen said and gave Zheng Yichen a look before leaving the cockpit.

"You won’t need my guidance anymore from here."

Walking in a corridor of the transporter with Essen, Essen pulled out a pack of cigarettes, looking at Zheng Yichen, who shook his head indicating he didn’t smoke. After lighting one for himself and putting the pack in his pocket, Essen said, "I am from the Devouring Faction."

Zheng Yichen was not surprised, "I figured."

As a native of the territory, who also knew about the Dusk Territory and Proxy Agents, if Essen wasn’t assimilated by a world with cancer, and wasn’t a Dusk mercenary, then he could only be a member of the Devouring Faction from the territory...

Essen smoked, "To kill is to be prepared to be killed. As a Devourer, you enjoy the spoils of plundering, but when it’s time to pay the price, you have to bear it quietly."

"Why not run away?"

Essen spoke with a mix of reluctance and resignation, "Maybe I’m not that important within the organization."

Zheng Yichen pointed to his still blood-red and somewhat frightening eyes, "I can see a lot right now, you’re not weak."

"What use is that? My home world has become like this, and the Devouring System is the cause of it all. Without the Devouring System, it wouldn’t have ended up this bad, and even if I had a chance to run, I wouldn’t want to anymore," Essen said.
