"Are you sure you still want to provoke the Beast Emperor?"
Dali’s eyes showed a hint of apprehension, as the escape half a month ago was still fresh in his memory.
"As long as that Purple Moon ferocious beast isn't here, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Chen Shu’s expression was calm. With his spatial divine skills, the Beast Emperor generally couldn't catch him.
"Fine then."
Dali nodded, not objecting.
"Let's just go find the Bat Emperor!"
Chen Shu raised his eyebrows, as if a thought had struck him, his face filled with a smile.
The Church of Salvation and the Demon Bat Emperor were both his enemies. It would naturally be a rather pleasant event for them to clash.
"You're just going to keep pestering one Beast Emperor..."
Dali rubbed his head, silently offering a prayer for him.
"This is just my personality, steadfast and unwavering."
"..."
With a long-distance teleportation, they arrived in Hill State of the Free Alliance the next second!
"Swish—"
"What are you swishing for?"
"Uh... practicing some sound effects for the rabbit's skills..."
Chen Shu’s gaze swept towards the distant horizon, where he could vaguely see the silhouette of an immensely colossal bat.
...
Within Hill State,
The former human structures had turned into ruins. All around, ferocious beasts in their prime could be seen everywhere, with no trace of humans left.
Even more bizarrely, the city center was covered in black trees, their forms twisted like ferocious ghosts with bared teeth and clawing paws, exuding an aura of strangeness and ill omen.
Above the black trees, countless bat-like ferocious beasts hung upside down, their eyes tightly closed, creating a chilling spectacle.
The passage to the [Demon Lair] was now wide open and had completely connected with Blue Star. The dark energy from within naturally flowed in.
And the trees in the Bat Forest had successfully grown rapidly on Blue Star, their growth rate no less than before.
At this moment, the Demon Bat Emperor arrived above the Bat Forest.
Its mood had calmed down. It looked at the two purple giant bats beside it and said in beast language:
"You two are responsible for transferring everything from the lair. This is our new territory now!"
"Emperor, will the climate and environment here be a bit..."
"It won't take too long. The entire continent will be like the [Demon Lair], or even better!"
The Bat Emperor gazed down at the territory below, feeling a touch of satisfaction. It said:
"Out with the old, in with the new. You two guard this territory for me!"
"Yes!"
The two giant bats quickly responded, feeling a flicker of joy in their hearts.
They finally had a new home...
"Accompany me on a patrol!"
The Bat Emperor flapped its wings, obscuring the sky. Its face also held a hint of excitement.
In an instant, the three bat-like ferocious beasts flew above the city, occasionally letting out strange, ferocious screeches, as if proclaiming their sovereignty.
In a short while,
They had scouted the entire city and were increasingly pleased.
"Once all the different dimensions are fully opened, this will be the most suitable environment for us to grow. What a wonderful place!"
The Bat Emperor stopped in mid-air, already envisioning future life.
If it were the original Blue Star environment, with its sparse spiritual energy, it was simply unsuitable for ferocious beasts to inhabit.
But if the energy from the different dimensions were allowed to spread, and they mixed, Blue Star's spiritual energy would be even more abundant than in the [Demon Lair].
It was a pity that by then, humans would likely be like rats on the street, barely surviving in the different dimensions...
Just then, the two purple giant bats exchanged a glance, as if they had a hidden agenda.
They stepped forward together, approached the Bat Emperor, and obsequiously said:
"Emperor, to celebrate the relocation of our Bat Clan to this new territory, we have prepared a small ceremony..."
"A ceremony?"
The Bat Emperor was slightly taken aback and said indifferently, "You two have time to cultivate properly. Stop all this fancy nonsense!"
"Yes, yes~~"
The two bats repeatedly agreed, appearing to be sincerely accepting the advice.
"Alright, today is a good day. I, the Emperor, will see the celebratory ceremony you've prepared."
The Bat Emperor was in a good mood and did not refuse the good intentions of its subordinates.
The two giant bats exchanged a glance, then let out a strange sonic wave into the sky.
At the same time, the bats waiting in the city center received the command and lit the fires.
Boom, boom!
In an instant, the dim sky was suddenly illuminated.
Clusters of dazzling fireworks ascended into the sky, bursting with all sorts of brilliant colors, incredibly spectacular!
A giant bat explained: "Emperor, these are fireworks. They are a small item frequently used by humans, generally during festive occasions..."
"Using human trinkets to celebrate the rise of our ferocious beast clan, excellent, excellent..."
The Bat Emperor looked at the dazzling lights, a smile appearing in its heart. It said:
"You have performed well. You can claim some poison-element materials later!"
"Thank you, Beast Emperor..."
The two giant bats instantly became excited, repeatedly expressing their gratitude.
At this moment, all the ferocious beasts in the city looked up at the fireworks in the sky, simultaneously emitting various roars to express their emotions.
As time passed, the fireworks began to dim, appearing to be nearing their end.
But in an instant,
A dazzling white light suddenly appeared on the ground and then soared upwards, illuminating the entire city, making it impossible to look directly at it.
"This is bright enough..."
The Bat Emperor was slightly surprised, then chuckled:
"Humans have researched something this bright? Do they dare to look at it? Wasn't it researched for us ferocious beasts?"
But its two subordinates had frozen expressions, not responding, as if they had gone numb.
"Hm?"
The Bat Emperor was slightly startled and shouted, "What's wrong with you two?"
"..."
The two giant bats, with faces full of terror, hesitantly said, "Emperor... this... this was not prepared by us..."
"Not by you?!"
The Beast Emperor’s expression froze, then its mind was instantly shaken. It looked towards the distant horizon.
It saw that the dazzling white light remained, and had even transformed into a white scorching sun, which was actually filled with terrifying energy!
"Could it be..."
The Bat Emperor's body trembled. A bad thought crossed its mind.
"Yes! Don't doubt it, it's me!"
And at this very moment, a calm voice drifted from afar.
A young man in a black trench coat, accompanied by a rabbit, was looking at it from a distance with a gentle smile.
"!!"
Upon seeing this face, the Bat Emperor's rage instantly surged, rushing to its brain, and it lost all reason.
Boom, boom, boom!
A mist of poison swept across the sky, even transforming into a purple storm!
However, the young man vanished from his spot with a teleportation and reappeared elsewhere, still quietly observing it.
Although he said nothing, the provocative intent was overwhelming.
"Roar!"
The Bat Emperor grew even more furious and was about to make another move, but the young man pointed towards the distance, as if reminding it.
At this moment, the Bat Emperor focused its gaze. The white scorching sun from before had disappeared.
The black trees on the street had also turned into debris, leaving behind only ruins and a shockingly deep pit...
Its newly established territory... had met with disaster again...
