Sky-cracking Rider -
Chapter 872 - 872: Section 865 - Fusion
The three thousand Pure Light Sparrows flitted around merrily inside the bridge of Flagship No. 1, but their overall density was always centered around the basketball-sized "Light Elemental Holy Crystal."
As the reward for this mission, most of the items had already been delivered, including that "Light Elemental Holy Crystal," specifically prepared for Xiao Jiu.
The Third Rank Light Beast Crystal Core, about the size of a quail egg, which Xiao Jiu had absorbed, was also placed beside the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal."
Attracted by the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal," this Beast Crystal Core emitted more Light Elemental Energy than usual, and the light in the surrounding atmosphere became more active as it was drawn in.
The activity level of Elemental Energy in the atmosphere of Emerald Star was similar to Blue Star's before its connection to Cangqiong Star, nearly dormant, indicating that the environmental rules were not very conducive to the birth of a magical civilization.
Thus, the biological weapons cultivated by the Parasitic Species were mere brutes, unable to even channel Elemental Energy, and were completely powerless against a barrage of firearms.
The Blue Star Civilization applied all their experience in dealing with mutants on these creatures, and to their surprise, it worked wonders.
The "Light Elemental Holy Crystal" came from an organization of Light-based Ability Users once powerful within the Cangqiong Star Civilization. However, as time passed, this once-sacred artifact changed hands many times, eventually entering Blue Star through quota trade and now becoming Chen Fei's personal collection.
To be precise, the owner was Pure Light Sparrow Xiao Jiu, and no one disputed this, nor dared to.
If the three thousand Xiao Jiu unleashed their power, even an A-level Ability User would have to retreat.
In the short time since they obtained the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal," more and more Pure Light Sparrows showed signs of advancing in rank. This large group of carefree sparrows easily leveled up due to the low starting point; with the right opportunities and resources, any Magical Beast could advance in rank, though higher ranks were much harder to achieve.
The Blue Star Sovereignties responsible for gathering the Pure Light Sparrows did a somewhat rough job. If they had organized personnel and Alchemical Artifacts to identify each one, selecting those with outstanding aptitude and talent, and let Xiao Jiu lead them to trigger Elemental Link, their overall strength could have significantly improved.
Not only on the bridge of Flagship No. 1 but even throughout the entire ship, many flickering points of light floated around, as the attraction of the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal" enriched the Light Elemental Energy to nearly visible levels.
Chen Fei confidently left the three thousand Pure Light Sparrows in the hands of Xiao Jiu, now all they needed was time, time to grow!
However, the environment filled with Light Elemental Energy made the Pure Light Sparrows, as Light-element Magical Beasts, very active, their chirping so chaotic that he almost couldn't tell which one was his own Xiao Jiu.

"Now for the third target!"
Chen Fei raised his head, looking at the sky.
The most crucial advantage had been secured, next, they had to tackle the tough enemies.
Adam: Confirming current location, coordinates...
Adam: Communication with the advance base is normal.
Adam: First nuclear strike countdown: 2 minutes and 15 seconds, second nuclear strike countdown...
Adam: Eggs of Mutants No. 1, 3, 5, and 7 have been successfully deployed, vital signs normal, activators released, expected maturation in 24 hours, overall mission progress 7%.
The First Airship Combat Cluster was located about 2200 kilometers west of the Blue Star Civilization's advance base, roughly one time zone shift in latitude.
Covering such a long distance was not completely accurate; actual movement depended entirely on the mood of an S-Class Space Ability User.
If Heseman Brown went all out, he could directly leap from Blue Star to Mars (via an astronomical telescope); that was the true sight-to-leap distance.
Unlike the Cangqiong Star's rank system, the gap between the S-Class and A-level on Blue Star was unimaginable. All A-levels combined wouldn't be enough to challenge an S-Class single-handedly, truly terrifying.
Adam: Biological Space Mother Ship No. 0002 has started moving, distance 19,000 kilometers.
Adam: Confirmed seven Biological Space Mother Ships, identified up to No. 0007.
Adam: No identifiable signal from Metallic Dragon Osmium Osiris.
The AI "Adam" handled multithreaded operations with ease, establishing a complex interface for the AR visual effects to display the current situation.
Chen Fei was no longer surprised by the seventh Biological Space Mother Ship. There was either none or countless. Given the foundation of the Parasitic Species' civilization, even possessing ten thousand Biological Space Mother Ships would seem normal.
If there were indeed ten thousand Biological Space Mother Ships, the entire Blue Star Civilization would probably lose the will to resist!
However, according to experts, the number of Biological Space Mother Ships in high orbit around Emerald Star should not exceed twenty, which was truly fortunate! Truly fortunate!
"What's the situation?"
The S-Class Space Ability User Heseman Brown, wearing Single Soldier Tactical Armor, noticed Chen Fei's momentary daze.
AR visual effects were limited to Chen Fei alone and invisible to others unless shared through three-dimensional holographic projection.
"The second Light Beam Strike is about to arrive!"
Distance had no meaning for outer space weapons; at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second, 19,000 kilometers was trivial. As long as both were aligned and no substantial obstacles were between them, it was expected that the First Airship Combat Cluster would be directly hit by Biological Space Mother Ship No. 0002.
"Good!"
"Chirp!"
Chen Fei's words were interrupted by a chirp, and Xiao Jiu pecked at his Tactical Helmet, clearly wanting to convey something.
The S-Class Space Ability User also noticed, pointing at Chen Fei's Tactical Helmet, saying: "Your little bird seems to have something to say."
No matter how weak a sparrow might be, as long as it had Magical Beast blood, its intelligence far surpassed that of common animals and deserved equal treatment.
"Alright!"
Chen Fei removed his Tactical Helmet, exposing his head. The little bird immediately flew to his ear, pecking at it, then landed in his palm, chirping continuously.
Uh... what does this chirping mean?
Chen Fei was utterly confused.
Not all Magical Beasts could speak, but as Intelligent Species, each had its methods of communication.
However, as the information load increased, communication became difficult.
After chirping for a while, the small bird turned, soared into the air.
All the Pure Light Sparrows also took flight, following Xiao Jiu, collectively circling beneath the bridge's ceiling.
"Chirp!~" × 1!
"Chirp!~" × 3000!
One chirp was answered by a thousand.
Light Elemental Energy was stirred, gathering above the airship.
Numerous points of luminescent light gradually formed a massive vortex, resonating with the collective circling of the bird flock.
"Be careful not to get splattered with blood."
Seeing this familiar sight, Chen Fei knew what the little bird intended to do—gathering the power of the flock to shield the First Airship Combat Cluster from the Constant Star Light Strike from outer space.
Though theoretically feasible, the number of Pure Light Sparrows was simply too few, at least a hundred thousand should be gathered!
The Blue Star Sovereignties were utterly careless!
(A group of useless Sovereignties: Your Majesty, we really can't do it!
Silan Dynasty: Hehehehe...)
The rulers' disputes directly affected Chen Fei, struggling just to gather a handful of sparrows.
Chen Fei didn't dare let these Pure Light Sparrows fly outside; the ship's interior space was adequate for their collective soaring, and the outside had numerous monsters, some of which could fly and were fierce and greedy.
The collective power of the Pure Light Sparrows shouldn't be underestimated, but individually, they were weak, easy targets.
It wasn't just Xiao Jiu; other Pure Light Sparrows' survival in Emerald Star's natural environment was uncertain, most likely facing danger.
Unless, as Chen Xiao'er suggested, millions of Pure Light Sparrows were summoned to sweep the entire planet, obliterating all Biological Space Mother Ships, compared to gathering Constant Star Light, the Pure Light Sparrows feared nothing.
However, such actions would severely impact the Cangqiong Star's ecosystem by breaking a crucial chain, leading to dangerous repercussions. Hence, the Silan Dynasty refused to export Pure Light Sparrows to Blue Star in large numbers, not merely for political reasons or mockery.
The bridge chamber with the circling flock faintly trembled as the First Airship Combat Cluster assembled, connecting and merging, visibly consolidating into a larger vessel.
"Your airship can combine?"
Seeing the three-dimensional holographic projection, Flagship No. 1, twelve Cooperative Ships, and two Transport Airships gradually merged, not just in appearance but structurally altering the chambers. The bridge alone expanded fivefold, providing a vaster circling space for the Pure Light Sparrow flock.
"Just like the Pure Light Sparrows, we need to tighten our fists for power."
As Chen Fei spoke, he spread his fingers and clenched his fist tightly.
The airship's shape meant little to his psi skills, merely a construction of building blocks, freely disassembled and reassembled, showcasing the true essence of his psi skills.
After combining, the First Airship Combat Cluster formed a super ship nearly 600 meters long, consolidating all core energy units "Super Star Crystal." The total Crystal Energy output power was sufficient to release a defensive force comparable to the "Wormhole Cloud" at the advance base, enough to prevent being obliterated by the Parasitic Species' Biological Space Mother Ship in one shot, providing at least basic self-defense capability.
Inside the airship, continuous exclamations filled the air. Apart from Chen Fei and S-Class Space Ability User Heseman Brown, there were numerous awakened Ability Users and scientists, approximately a hundred in total.
All onboard had prepared mentally for a one-way trip, they were considered as a suicide squad without exaggeration.
