Chapter 379: Massive Gas Giant
“Old Qin, let me explain!” Bernice walked over.
She looked at Myers and said, “General, Old Qin is trustworthy and very capable. He can help us survive this crisis.”
Myers frowned and stared at Qin Chuan. “Esteemed Immortal Cultivator, it’s not that I don’t believe you.
“You should know our current situation right now.
“The Moon Wolf race has made ample preparations to seize my race’s Mechanical Hearts.
“I know that you are very powerful, but there are five experts of your level on the Moon Wolf race’s side. They may be even stronger than you.”
“Esteemed Immortal Cultivator, our race has been at odds with the Moon Wolf race for a long time. There will be a battle sooner or later.
“Now that the great battle has erupted, given my race’s current strength, we can only allow the Moon Wolf race to trample over us.
“I am very grateful to you for saving me. At the same time, you helped Bernice bring back the Mechanical Hearts. You are the benefactor of my race. I do not wish to implicate you and cause you to lose your life.”
Myers’ gaze was sincere. As a high-ranking official, he knew the exact strength of the Moon Wolf army.
He knew that Qin Chuan and Dan Yangzi were very powerful.
However, against the Moon Wolf race’s large and advanced battleships, mechas, as well as the five powerful generals, there was no hope of victory.
“Since General Myers has said so, then I have been too arrogant.” Qin Chuan laughed in self-mockery.
Myers understood what Qin Chuan meant, but the Moon Wolf Clan was simply too powerful. He had no intention of belittling Qin Chuan.
The atmosphere became awkward for a time.
Qin Chuan looked at Bernice and said, “Ber! It’s not that I don’t want to help you, but you heard it yourself. It was your leader who asked me to leave, so you should leave with me!”
But Bernice was one-track-minded.
“Old Qin, I’m a soldier, a great White Wolf warrior. I can’t leave no matter what.
“My clansmen need my help. Although insignificant, I should help with our final moments. It will also an honorable death.”
Bernice’s gaze was firm. “Old Qin, I was foolish and ignorant before. After hearing Sir Myers’ words, I finally understand. The Moon Wolf army isn’t something you and Old Dan can deal with. I shouldn’t have dragged you into this.
“Given your strength, you should still be able to leave now. Both you and Old Dan don’t mind me anymore.
“Bernice is really happy to have met both of you in this life.”
Qin Chuan replied, “To be honest, I don’t want to get involved in this matter, but Old Dan is worried about you.
“Even if you don’t agree… With Old Dan’s personality, do you think he will compromise?”
Bernice said immediately, “I can convince him.”
Qin Chuan shrugged. “You can try. Mm… he’s already here.”
Bernice turned around, and Dan Yangzi happened to walk behind her.
“Old Dan…” Bernice was about to speak when Dan Yangzi waved his hand. “Ber, you don’t have to say anything. You won’t be able to convince me unless you leave with us now.”
Bernice was also one-track-minded, so she naturally wouldn’t leave.
Just as she was about to say something, Dan Yangzi brushed past her and stared at Qin Chuan with a solemn expression. Although he didn’t say anything, Qin Chuan understood what he meant.
Qin Chuan calmly replied, “I got it.”
“General Myers, I know that the Moon Wolf race has sent out a very powerful force this time, but I also have some confidence.”
Myers frowned as he looked at Qin Chuan, not understanding where his confidence came from.
Qin Chuan continued, “General Myers, don’t think too much about it. Tell me where your king is. This is very important.”
Myers was still hesitant. “Sir, are you really confident?”
Qin Chuan coolly nodded his head.
Myers was lost in thought.
Qin Chuan didn’t say anything, waiting for his reply.
There was a short silence, and then Myers thought things through.
There was basically no chance of a comeback right now.
Since Qin Chuan and company were willing to help, even if they failed, they could still ruthlessly tear a piece out of the Moon Wolf race, not letting them have an easy time.
“Sir, have you really decided?” Myers asked solemnly.
Qin Chuan nodded.
I’ve already used my trump card. I’ll be at a disadvantage if I don’t kill more Moon Wolves.
On the other side.
Humphrey and the other generals brought a group of elites to the battlefield where they had previously surrounded Myers.
The scene was in chaos.
Countless battleships, mechas, and corpses floated in space.
With a gloomy expression, Humphrey ordered the elites to retrieve the remains of the Moon Wolf soldiers.
He turned on an instrument and waited a moment. A few green dots appeared on the instrument screen, but they quickly disappeared.
Humphrey was surprised.
At this moment, Aston flew over and asked, “Have you discovered their whereabouts?”
Humphrey said, “They were showing just now, but it suddenly disappeared.”
Aston took the instrument and restarted it. He recalibrated it, activated the tracking function, and waited a few minutes. Still nothing on the screen.
“This is a Zerg device. Although they’ve been eliminated, it is still very advanced compared to other tracking devices. Could it be broken?”
Aston checked the instrument repeatedly and even tapped it a few times.
Humphrey said, “It was eliminated after all and bought from a black market supplier. We don’t know how many hands this has passed through. It’s normal for it to have some problems.
“Forget it for now.
“The equipment did show their coordinates earlier. If we go now, we might be able to catch up.”
Aston nodded.
After that, Humphrey arranged for some elites to stay behind to clean up the corpses, while the other elites followed them to chase after Qin Chuan.
At this moment, Qin Chuan and company had arrived outside a gas giant[1].
Through his divine consciousness, Qin Chuan felt that this planet was only one-third smaller than the sun.
“The King and the others are inside,” said Myers.
Qin Chuan stared at the gas giant in front of him. Given his current cultivation at the Immortal realm, his divine consciousness could break through all kinds of hurricanes, bad weather, and magnetic fields on the surface of the planet without any hindrance and observe the situation inside.
The environment on this planet was extremely harsh.
The wind on the surface was above level 20. If Earth was placed inside, it would be turned into dust by the hurricane anytime.
Other than the hurricane, there were also countless lightning bolts. The diameter of any lightning bolt was as thick as a hundred-meter tall mountain. It was extremely terrifying.
These were secondary. The most dangerous thing was the high temperature inside. It was basically maintained at hundreds of thousands of degrees Celsius.
Qin Chuan pondered for a moment. If even the Moon Wolf battleship couldn’t withstand such high temperatures, then how did the White Wolves, whose level of civilization was even lower than theirs, enter?
However, Qin Chuan did not probe further.
He used his dharmic powers to wrap the battleship that the mechanical dog had transformed into.
The mechanical dog was not fully grown yet, so it was not strong enough to resist the harsh environment on this planet.
As soon as they arrived in the atmosphere, they were surrounded by all kinds of powerful hurricanes.
The cries were like the wailing of ghosts, shocking and terrifying as if they had arrived in hell.
The battleship that the mechanical dog had transformed into was shaking. The defensive barrier formed by dharmic powers shook violently as if it was about to break apart in the next second.
Myers and Bernice had solemn expressions on their faces. The meridians on their faces were bulging out, and their eyes revealed fear and uneasiness, but they tried their best to maintain their calm.
It wasn’t the first time Myers had been here, but every time was like brushing past the gates of hell.
This was Bernice’s first time here, and seeing the harsh environment outside with her own eyes, she was extremely panicked.
Fortunately, everyone arrived safely inside the gas giant.
