Chapter 971 -461: Blast Drummer!
“Su Rong.”
“…Su Rong?”
In the pitch darkness, there was no response at all.
Shen Ye was secretly astonished.
That’s not right.
There should have been some sort of response.
Could something have happened on Death Planet?
“Summon—Charlotte.”
Still no movement.
As a Gatekeeper, this time the summoning had unexpectedly failed.
“Norton!”
Bang!
Norton, wearing a crown, suddenly appeared.
“What’s the matter? Do you want to mobilize the army or something else?”
Norton asked.
Anxiety in Shen Ye’s heart intensified even further.
“Wait—Summon Xiao Mengyu.”
There was no movement.
“Song Yinchen!”
Still no movement.
“Norton, do you know what’s happened on Death Planet?” Shen Ye asked.
“I have no idea, there’s been no news,” Norton said.
Shen Ye’s heart shuddered.
Something has happened!
This won’t do.
I must return to have a look.
“Gate.”
After sending Norton back to Nightmare World, he immediately uttered a low shout.
However—
The gate did not appear.
Faint glowing characters swiftly caught Shen Ye’s eyes:
“Due to the intensified conflict in the current environment, the entire ship is under the oppression of a powerful Truth Field.”
“Your gate power has been suppressed!”
Shen Ye opened his eyes, sat up abruptly, and became increasingly unable to suppress his agitation.
He looked up at the sky.
In the depths of the sky.
A few intense ripples of Truth were about to materialize, so visible were the turbulent waves even to the naked eye.
The Valkyrie and the End Master had already stopped fighting.
—The apocalyptic cataclysm that was touted as the challenge of the 20th level of trials had actually halted!
“Their fight has suppressed our layer; now we can’t use anything.”
The Valkyrie spoke.
Shen Ye remained silent, but his thoughts were in tumult.
The struggle between the Truth 17th Rank bigshot, the Chaos Ship, and the eight White Night Spirit Kings had reached its most intense moment.
The power inadvertently emitted from their battle had actually suppressed the trials of this layer.
I can’t even open a gateway between the two realms to return to Death Planet!
This won’t do.
Death Planet is what I truly care about.
I must find a way to go back.
Is there a way…
“Hey!”
Shen Ye shouted loudly towards the sky:
“You must be able to hear my voice, after all, this is your ship!”
“Lift the suppression on me!”
“I promise to take my people and leave immediately, never to return!”
His voice echoed in the sky, but there was no response.
Shen Ye took a deep breath and shouted:
“I have no interest in your conflict, let me go! We can live and let live!”
In the depths of the sky.
That cold and ruthless voice finally responded:
“Who do you think you are?”
“—Just stay put, it won’t be long before I deal with them, and then I’ll come for you ants.”
That was the response from the Chaos Ship!
It was confident it could handle the eight White Night Spirit Kings and the Truth 17th Rank bigshot, and still have strength left to deal with everything else on the ship!
Such a declaration was enough to prove its formidable power.
The Valkyrie’s face turned pale as she barely managed to steady herself.
The End Master also clenched her fingers tightly, a glint of despair flashing in her eyes.
As strong humans, both could read between the lines of the other’s words—
It firmly controlled the situation.
—It would not let go of any individual here!
Shen Ye’s expression froze, and he stood in a daze for quite some time.
The confidence and imposing nature within its words were all too easy to detect.
But—
I need to go back!
No matter what, you can’t stop me from going back!
…I need a way.
At least a way to make it change its stance.
Shen Ye started walking, passing through the “Blood-sucking Old Men” prosthetic bodies.
His hands kept patting each prosthetic body.
With each pat, every prosthetic body dissipated into shimmering orbs of light.
The orbs of light grew more numerous.
As a result, glowing characters began to emerge:
“You have activated ‘Blood-sucking Old Man’, awakening the first kind of strength, forcibly extracting the essence contained in your prosthetic creations, and merging them all into one.”
“Congratulations.”
“You have merged all prosthetics, inducing a Super Evolution.”
“Current result of the fusion product:”
“Vampire Ancestor.”
“Truth Seventh Rank prosthetic.”
“Description: This is an—”
The characters had not yet fully displayed when suddenly they were scattered by an invisible force.
—Truth Suppression!
Not only were the characters dispersed, but the merging orbs of light also exploded like fireworks, leaving nothing behind.
The voice from the sky once again resounded:
“See? Under my power suppression, you can do nothing.”
Shen Ye remained silent, but he looked down at himself, turned around, touched his arm, legs, waist, and butt before finally heaving a sigh of relief: 𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙥𝒖𝒃.𝒄𝒐𝒎
“—The trials originally set on the 21st level have been forcibly compressed into three, which is your limit, plus I don’t want to be owned by you, so you can’t directly kill me, can you?”
“Wait till I’ve dealt with them, that’ll be your end,” the Chaos Ship said coldly.
End—
Shen Ye’s gaze grew heavy.
“This place is filled with an overwhelming Power of Truth, you can’t do anything; you need to figure out another way, otherwise, I’ll become your burial object,” said the omniera End Master loudly to remind him.
Shen Ye stood still.
He was like a robot that had lost all power, maintaining a completely motionless posture.
After a few breaths.
He suddenly spoke again: “That’s not right! I can still use ‘Gatekeeper’s Protection’ to summon Technique Spirits from Nightmare World!”
The Valkyrie sighed and said:
“‘Gatekeeper’s Protection’ is a very special Truth Contract, it’s a contract, without any rank, and is generally not affected by Truth Suppression.”
