Global Mutation: Opening with Swallowing a Black Mamba

This battlefield belongs to the Vermilion Bird Star Cluster, called the Cloud Crane Star System.

Just like the Divine Desolate Continent, the Cloud Crane Star System consists of tens of trillions of such continents.

However, the primary battlefields for the Vermilion Bird Star Cluster and the Qiongqi Star Cluster in the Cloud Crane Star System only total thirty.

As for other secondary battlefields, there are countless.

Vita led Gu Qijue and the others and quickly arrived at a heavily scarred planet.

This planet was interesting because not long ago, it was actually the home of dinosaurs.

There were many dinosaur corpses here, and quite a number still struggling for life.

Vita led the group, appearing at a high altitude.

Then he said to Gu Qijue and the others, "Do you see those Super Long-Distance Space Transmission Devices?"

"Our mission on this planet is to destroy those Super Long-Distance Space Transmission Devices deployed by the Qiongqi Star Cluster."

"Of course, those Space Transmission Devices are likely just decoys, traps."

"The real Space Transmission Devices of the Qiongqi Star Cluster, like ours, are placed at the rear of the battlefields."

"However, destroying these Space Transmission Devices is still necessary."

"We are currently on the outskirts of the battlefield, where combat is unlikely to occur."

"But as you move deeper, battles will happen."

Gu Qijue noticed the key in Vita's last two sentences, we and you.

Not only Gu Qijue, but the others also noticed.

Ziling asked suspiciously, "Lord Vita, do you mean you won't be accompanying us from now on?"

Vita nodded: "Exactly! You can use the Combat Bracelet to search for a resource called Moonlight Ore."

"Your mission this time is to obtain a hundred Moonlight Ores from this battlefield."

"These Moonlight Ores were brought by the Qiongqi Star Cluster."

"Once activated by the Moon Power Device, the Moonlight Ore will form a massive Moonlight Barrier."

"Intelligent life from the Vermilion Bird Star Cluster cannot freely pass through the Moonlight Barrier."

"Planets enveloped by the Moonlight Barrier will be occupied by the Qiongqi Star Cluster."

"However, the integration of Moonlight Ore with the planet is a relatively slow process, taking about two to three weeks."

"During this time, our people need to take away as many Moonlight Ores as possible."

After Vita finished speaking, Gu Qijue understood.

Ziling and Beigong Zhai also understood.

But understanding is one thing, accomplishing it is certainly not easy.

Especially since Vita will not be acting with them from this point, everything relies solely on themselves.

With a thought, Gu Qijue activated a virtual screen on his Combat Bracelet.

After learning the details about the Moonlight Ore, he set out directly.

Ziling, who had been hesitant, followed closely when she saw Gu Qijue set off.

Catching up to him, she asked cautiously, "Lord Gu Qijue, how come you don't seem afraid at all?"

Of course, Gu Qijue couldn't tell Ziling the truth; he wasn't afraid because his Infinite Engine scan showed there was no danger around.

What he said was: "Since we're here, might as well stay calm, fear won't help."

"Besides, no matter what, Vita wouldn't intentionally lead us to our deaths."

While Gu Qijue was speaking, he dug a piece of Moonlight Ore out of the soil.

Then, his Combat Bracelet displayed a prompt of "+0.936 points" in battle merit.

The battle merits of the Vermilion Bird Star Cluster are peculiar, not fixed, but dynamically adjusted.

For example, this piece of Moonlight Ore, Gu Qijue earned just this much battle merit for obtaining it now.

But had he retrieved this piece of Moonlight Ore the moment the Moonlight Barrier started forming,

According to the calculations of the Combat Bracelet's central intellect, he would have made a crucial contribution.

In such cases, the battle merit he would receive might be thousands or tens of thousands of times greater than now.

Seeing Gu Qijue easily start collecting Moonlight Ore, Ziling relaxed a bit.

Beigong Zhai's group was rather comical.

While Gu Qijue and Ziling seemed on a picnic, they looked like they were clearing mines.

All of them were Divine-tier warriors, gods in the eyes of mortals.

However, after so long, the farthest any "god" had ventured was still under a hundred kilometers.

For these Divine-level powerhouses, it was equivalent to standing still.

During normal times, with a thought, their teleportation covered several thousand kilometers.

While Gu Qijue and Ziling had some gains, Beigong Zhai's group had none.

For others arriving here, their behavior was similar, wandering the outskirts, not daring to go deeper.

However, Gu Qijue and Ziling's bold venture indeed encountered some trouble.

A group of warriors from the Qiongqi Star Cluster discovered them at this moment.

"Buzz——"

Ten Quantum Light Sabers were unsheathed instantly.

The warriors from the Qiongqi Star Cluster were all clad in nano armor.

All of them were Divine-tier in strength.

What Vita said about this place, that Divine-tier is just cannon fodder, was indeed true.

Facing unknown enemies, Ziling was extremely cautious.

So much so, she was dumbfounded the next moment!

As she was still preparing to probe and figure out the enemies' level,

Gu Qijue suddenly entered his second combat mode and charged holding the Blood Spear.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Three muffled sounds were heard, and three Divine-tier warriors were instantly skewered by Gu Qijue like candied hawthorns!

The remaining seven reacted, attempting to flee.

But Gu Qijue raised his spear, relentlessly pursuing them.

It was a one-sided overwhelming crush, as the Qiongqi Star Cluster's patrol team was wiped out by Gu Qijue in no time!

He had further fused with the power of the Blood Dragon God within him.

In his first form, he already possessed the strength of Peak Demigod.

In his second combat form, he possessed the strength of Divine Eighth Level.

The third and fourth forms similarly rose with the tide, becoming stronger.

Ziling knew this Emperor Star Leader's combat power was terrifying.

But she only realized now just how formidable Gu Qijue's strength was!

Although this patrol team's strongest was only at the Divine Level Third Stage.

Yet no matter what, they were ten Divine-tier warriors, annihilated by Gu Qijue in less than half a minute!

While Ziling was extremely shocked, Gu Qijue was very pleased.

All ten, though clad in nano armor, were Divine-tier warriors.

After their defeat, they all left behind Divine Spirit Crystal Cores.

These Divine Spirit Crystal Cores could all be used by the Infinite Engine to create Gods!

Although Divine-tier warriors are mere cannon fodder in the battlefield of Star Cluster-level civilizations.

However, in the small realm of the Divine Desolate Continent, they are extremely useful.

With enough gods, the Emperor Star Alliance can completely seize control of the Divine Desolate Continent.
