Chapter 943: Section 935 - Collective Advance in Rank
The Pure Light Sparrow of Human Rank Seventh Stage leading a group of same-rank Fourth Stage kin could render the Starlight Column focus fire of several Biological Space Motherships ineffective. Now, having advanced in rank once more, its mastery over light has reached a new level, ensuring there's nothing to worry about.
The Extraterrestrial Races "Sagali" probably never expected that their strongest space combat weapon, their proud trump card, would become the advancement resources for a group of Pure Light Sparrows, saving Chen Fei a large amount of magic potion.
"Chirp!" ×3216!
As the true core of the Light magic array, the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal" floats in mid-air, surrounded by Pure Light Sparrows, radiating dazzling light.
Amidst the collective resonance of Light Elemental Energy, the continually flashing lights within the Pure Light Sparrow Flock spiraling around the Airship's cabin shine brightly, one after another.
Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam" immediately identified those Pure Light Sparrows emitting white light and conducted a shape comparison.
Adam: Five Pure Light Sparrows advanced to Human Rank Fifth Stage!
Adam: One Pure Light Sparrow advanced to Human Rank Fifth Stage!
Adam: Six Pure Light Sparrows advanced to Human Rank Fifth Stage!
Adam: Three Pure Light Sparrows advanced to Human Rank Fifth Stage!
Since Xiao Jiu ascended from Human Rank Seventh Stage to Eighth Stage, the other Pure Light Sparrows, all originally at Fourth Stage, seemed to have broken through some ceiling, and one after another began to advance in rank.
Fourth Stage and Seventh Stage, Fifth Stage and Eighth Stage, perhaps it's a coincidence, maintaining a gap of three ranks.
"Is this...?"
The S-Class Space Ability User turned his head in surprise to look at Chen Fei, asking in shock, "...Has it advanced again?"
Referring not only to Xiao Jiu but also to the other Pure Light Sparrows.
Even if they haven't eaten pork, they've seen pigs run; even as a supernatural power user, they're not completely ignorant of various Magical Beasts knowledge.
On the contrary, the higher the rank of the Ability User, the more they likely know about other types of Ability Users.
"Human Rank, Eighth!"
Chen Fei snapped his fingers.
If it weren't for the Pure Light Sparrows, they would have been vaporized along with the airship into nothingness; they wouldn't have had a chance to chat idly here at all.
"Is there still a need for more powerful Elemental Annihilation Weapons?"
Heseman Brown felt they had already gained an invincible position and might even have a chance to counterattack.
"Of course, it's necessary. Light-element Magical Beasts at the low tiers of Human Rankings don't have any decent attack spells. They can at most protect themselves, but for counterattacks, they'd need to advance at least one more rank."
Because Xiao Jiu is a Light-element Magical Beast, Chen Fei has some knowledge of this type of Magical Beast.
It is only at Human Rank Ninth Stage that the Light-based Attack Spell "Flashing Spirit Barrage" appears, which is a large-scale group attack Light-based Spell that can also focus on a single target. The key lies in how it's used.
Currently, just after ascending to Human Rank Eighth Stage, they have a defensive spell called "Sky Bright Light Realm." Firstly, it hasn't been mastered, and secondly, once used, the Light magic array that draws from the Constant Star Light Source would lose its function. It would turn from substitution into a hard counter, thus becoming disadvantageous.
"Oh! How long can the Pure Light Sparrows hold out?"
Heseman Brown wanted to have an idea, so it was easier to prepare to flee.
As an S-Class Superpower User, charging into battle was impossible, placing him at the bottom of the S-Class rankings, but his escape methods were unquestionably the best.
"Perhaps they can ascend to the Ninth Stage?"
Chen Fei expressed no urgency, turning to give instructions to Artificial Intelligence AI "Adam."
"Ascend vertically on the spot until reaching beyond the atmosphere."
The transport battleship began synchronizing the enhancements for airtight sealing and radiation isolation. The ship rose vertically like an elevator.
The radiation dose outside the atmosphere exceeds the hostile, radioactive isotope-filled environment inside the atmosphere. After all, the nearby Constant Star is the largest super nuclear reaction source, engaging in fusion and fission reactions at all times, releasing high-energy particles continuously, not to mention the pervasive cosmic rays. Without the protection of the planetary magnetic field and the atmosphere (especially the ionosphere), these rays' lethality surpasses that of nuclear winter.
As the airship climbed higher, the Starlight Column gathered from the stars outside the atmosphere continued to focus fiercely on the ship. Over twenty space battleships persistently focused their beams, unaware of the changes occurring within their target.
After Xiao Jiu successfully advanced in rank, another large Light magic array surrounded the transport battleship, equating to four gigantic light circles intersecting and endlessly rotating, endlessly refining the light energy pouring down, making it the best resource for the evolution of the Pure Light Sparrows' bloodline.
"Captain, the second Element Annihilation Bomb has been designed and just passed the simulation calculation."
Elemental Annihilation Outburst has specific formulas. After extracting a certain sealed design plan from the "Forbidden Document," Mino Heaton, the Head of Elemental Annihilation Weapon Development Team, skillfully adjusted it and then submitted it to the planetary-level compute node for verification.
No queue was necessary, no compute resources allocation was needed, and the deduction results were almost instantaneous. Several comparative samples were then modified based on this, submitted to the supercomputer units, and once again, the optimal solution emerged quickly.
When research resources are free, the only shortcoming limiting progress is the personal imagination of the developer.
"Prepare all existing materials, limit processing to within half an hour, leave the rest to me!"
Chen Fei replied immediately, hoping to finish before Xiao Jiu truly ascends to Human Ranking Ninth Stage. To accelerate the creation of this Element Annihilation Bomb, he decided to intervene personally, using his psi skill to push, even willing to expend a few Energy Points.
"Received, we will hurry!"
Mino Heaton understood what Chen Fei meant right away and quickly arranged to prepare the current materials and easily manufacturable ones in advance, simplifying the steps and time for the subsequent manufacturing process as much as possible.
Seeing Chen Fei end the call with the Head of the Elemental Annihilation Weapon Development Team inside the Blue Star's giant battleship and look at him, Heseman Brown immediately responded with an OK gesture, saying, "I'll take another trip!"
He would bring back the core components of the second Element Annihilation Bomb from the Blue Star, and then Chen Fei would process it into the final product with his psi skill.
This Metal Series Super Power Technique was just too useful; one person could rival a fully equipped machine shop, ensuring the highest level of precision in processing. As long as it's metal material, no complex component is beyond creation.
At this moment, the phenomena of rank advancement within the Pure Light Sparrow Flock were occurring one after another. More and more Pure Light Sparrows have started advancing to Human Rank Fifth Stage, and achieving an all Fifth Rank group seems imminent.
Under normal circumstances, accumulating to this extent probably would have taken a long time, perhaps even beyond the lifespan of the Pure Light Sparrows, meaning there was essentially no possibility of further advancement.
But now, the Biological Space Mother Ships provided far too much.
The light source from the stars, continuously refined into vast amounts of pure Light Elements by the "Light Elemental Holy Crystal," the core of the Light magic array, could be absorbed and used almost without any negative effects. Human Rank Eighth Xiao Jiu, as the leader of the group, guided the collective elemental resonance, continuously refining the Magical Beast bloodline of every Pure Light Sparrow, far exceeding the effects of most magic potions, making the Pure Light Sparrows akin to their Magical Beast lineage — born for light, unified with the dust of light.
To cultivate to this extent with magic potions alone would have required a massive, exorbitant amount... even the Silan Royal Family, holding the entire Element Series civilization's ruling power, couldn't bear such expenses.
More importantly, there was no guarantee the Pure Light Sparrows would advance in rank, and they were likely to be killed or drowned by magic potions, as they were nothing but a bunch of weak Magical Beast Sparrows with pitiful combat power.
But now, the Pure Light Sparrows seemed to ride a smooth sail, strongly propelled to higher ranks.
Over three thousand Pure Light Sparrows, all at least Human Rank Fourth Stage; take one outside casually, and it could easily lead a large flock of ordinary-blooded Pure Light Sparrows.
But on Chen Fei's battleship, Human Rank Fourth Stage or Fifth Stage seemed inconspicuous and not the least outstanding.
