Chapter 169 At this time, Ji Zi was on her way on horseback (carriage)
Gold Sand looked at the "unspeakable thing" that was growing flesh and blood again and seemed... not to care much.
For him, the big problem would be if this strange thing disappeared or died under the double attack of him and Wu Xuan.
He turned his head to look at Wu Xuan and found that his expression was very solemn. This expression made Sha Jin's heart, which had just been relieved, become tense again.
"What's wrong?" asked Sha Jin.
Wu Xuan shook his head slightly, then stretched out his right hand again and asked softly, "As long as it lasts for two and a half systems, it will be enough, right?"
Just as Wu Xuan and Sha Jin were talking, the monster's tentacles, which had been silent, moved again and roared at Wu Xuan and Sha Jin who were standing not far away.
Roar--
Sha Jin looked at the tentacles that were twisting faster than before, but he still didn't care much. He didn't directly answer Wu Xuan's question, but expressed it with actions.
He snapped his fingers again, and the familiar chip box once again hovered directly above the monster.
"Let's do it again...use its self-healing period to buy enough time." Sha Jin said calmly.
Wu Xuan nodded, then spread out his right hand and repeated the same trick.
And that "unspeakable thing" fell silent again after being "baptized" by the chips and hit by the train, and the scars on its body were gradually healed bit by bit.
Logically speaking...things should be resolved bit by bit.
But Wu Xuan still sensed something was wrong. The holes on the body of that "unspeakable thing"...became much fewer?
"Do you still have the ability to adapt? It's troublesome." Wu Xuan couldn't help but mutter.
Shajin naturally heard what Wu Xuan said, and nodded in agreement, saying, "Also... its self-repair speed has become much faster."
"If we continue like this... I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out until the company's support arrives. Even holding out for two systems is a bit wishful thinking."
Wu Xuan sighed slightly, then continued: "But do we have a choice?"
"No."
"Then delay it a little longer." Wu Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly. He now understood that all this story started with this guy and would definitely end with this thing.
“It can be considered a closed loop of some kind, right?” Wu Xuan thought to himself.
In the next system time, Wu Xuan and Sha Jin not only repeated the previous attack process, but also attached the power of destiny to their weapons.
They used imaginary energy to cut off those disgusting purple-black tentacles one by one, in order to prolong the thing's self-healing time.
But...even if they are messengers, their life level is only slightly higher than that of ordinary people, which means that their physical strength will be exhausted one day.
Wu Xuan and Sha Jin retreated to a safe distance breathlessly, looking at the gradually growing purple-black tentacles, helpless for a moment.
"No...if we go on like this, not only will we have to wait until the company's support arrives, but we may not be able to escape unscathed." Sha Jin said in a deep voice as he looked at the monster that showed signs of activity again.
After saying this, Shajin put his hand to his ear again, as if he had connected to a certain channel and asked, "Topa, when will you arrive?"
"We'll be there in about three system hours. The journey is much smoother than expected."
Hearing this, Shajin turned to Wu Xuan and asked, "Mr. Navigator... How long will it take for this monster to completely destroy the "Spectrum of Sound" and reach Tianqin-V?"
"Four systems. If we estimate conservatively... I'm afraid it will be around three systems."
Jin Sha nodded after hearing this, and put his hand to his ear again, and continued to ask Topa: "Yelina, how much distance can that incomplete imaginary energy cannon save?"
Topa was slightly stunned when his real name was suddenly called, but he still answered: "About... half a system hour."
Hearing Topa's answer, Shajin breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to look at Wu Xuan and said, "That should be enough. We can retreat first."
Wu Xuan nodded, then turned into a streak of white light and disappeared on the spot. Sha Jin followed closely after cutting off the communication and returned to the stands of "Spectrum of Sound".
......
Shajin turned his head to look at Wu Xuan, who still had a serious expression, and asked after a soft laugh, "What's wrong with you? Why are you so nervous?"
Wu Xuan sighed softly, and then explained: "It's not that I don't trust the company, but this thing can't be explained by common sense at all."
"Strange tentacles, complex destiny power, endless repair ability, isn't this really an "ancient beast" left behind by the Amber King before he built the wall?"
Shajin was slightly stunned when he heard this, then he shook his head and said, "My colleague, Zhenzhu, one of the 'Ten Stone Hearts', gave an answer."
"The only 'ancient beast' left in the universe is 'Tao Tao', so this thing can't be an 'ancient beast'."
"So what do you think this thing is? Something like a "breeding" "path thief"? "
Upon hearing this, Shajin paused for a moment, then shook his head, "I don't know, but now we can only wait for the company to arrive, right?"
Wu Xuan fell silent. Actually, he really wanted to refute what Sha Jin said, but... subjectively speaking, he really didn't want to use that weapon until the last moment.
"Wait a little longer, maybe... there will be a turning point. After all, until now... the final chapter of the main mission has not appeared." Wu Xuan thought.
At this time, another signal came from Sha Jin's headphones, but it was not a signal from the star destroyer under the "Interstellar Peace Corporation", but came from... his own men.
"What's the matter? Tell me."
"Mr. Shajin, there's a girl here at Leche, and she said she wants to see you."
Sha Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Wu Xuan beside him inconspicuously, and then asked, "A girl with red hair?"
"Yes, you see...?"
"Bring her here, she is the navigator's student."
"Yes!"

After a rough calculation, the Ji Zi chapter is about 18 words after the simulation, excluding the real-life reception, which is about 6 words less than the Silver Wolf chapter.
It’s just a little more than I expected (I seem to be either writing super or on the way to writing super)
The original God book has been reported again and is now on the verge of being removed from the shelves. I'll see if I can save it. What kind of review mechanism is this...
