Chapter 409 What a huge sword!
"Make way, don't block Lao Xu's landing." His voice rang out in the camp.
Everyone automatically made way for the open space in the center of the camp, and looked up at the pitch-black night sky.
Then they saw it.
A dark red dot of light appeared at the edge of the horizon, initially only the size of a pinhead, almost indistinguishable from the stars.
But it moves extremely fast, almost jumping and magnifying in the field of vision.
In the blink of an eye, the point of light had turned into a burning flame, trailing a long tail across the night sky like a shooting star falling to the earth.
Someone instinctively took a step back.
The flame was too bright, too fast, too fierce, carrying a sense of oppression that instilled an instinctive fear.
"What a huge sword!" Everyone was shocked when they saw what was in the air.
Fu Xiaojian stood there, head tilted back, the smile on his lips growing wider and wider.
Because he recognized the 'flame'.
Isn't that Xu Si's starlight?
The Nirvana, resembling a mighty sword reaching to the heavens, tore through the night sky and suddenly slowed down directly above the camp.
The air was compressed into a visible white shockwave that spread outwards, overturning several makeshift sunshades at the edge of the camp and sending pebbles and dust several meters into the air.
Everyone squinted and raised their hands to block the strong wind rushing towards them.
Then, the dark red figure descended from the sky.
As Xu Si floated down from the greatsword, the entire camp fell silent for a moment the instant his feet touched the ground.
"Nothing wrong?" Xu Si was somewhat surprised, as it seemed different from what he had expected.
When Fu Xiaojian saw Xu Si's figure clearly, his brows furrowed.
It looks the same, but the feeling it gives is completely different.
He stood there, doing nothing, like a drawn sword standing in the center of the camp, making everyone afraid to look directly at him.
"Knife, you're finally back, you fucking back." Tashan, completely unsuspecting, gave Xu Si a bear hug, trying to lift him up from where he stood.
Fortunately, Xu Si now has exquisite control over sequence energy, and he stopped Ta Shan's figure with just a wave of his hand.
He didn't want to have any physical contact with a grown man.
A sweet and soft-spoken young lady is acceptable.
"..."
Xu Si nodded slightly, the star veins already sweeping across the camp.
Everyone is here.
Tashan, Jiao Jiao, Xiao Luo, Kaochang, Dou Dou, Shao Bing, Ivan, Yang Fan, Hinata Aoi, Lin Zhennan, Jiang Li...
Apart from Fan Wanwan.
He was worried about this before he came, but now it seems that his worries were unnecessary.
Clearly, even after escaping from His cage, Fan Wanwan dared not expose herself to the light of day.
Familiar faces, pairs of eyes filled with excitement, worry, or relief.
"I apologize for the delay of a few days and for keeping everyone waiting," he said apologetically.
"How many days?" Jiao Jiao's voice boomed from the crowd, filled with the grievances and anger that had been suppressed for five days.
"Do you know how long you've been gone? Five days! A full five days!"
She rushed forward, her face flushed red, forgetting even the pain in her forehead. Tears were welling up in her eyes, but she stubbornly held them back.
"Do you know how worried we were? Do you know that Xiao Luo had nosebleeds several times while waiting for you? Do you know that Aunt Fu stood outside the car every day looking northeast, like a statue waiting for her husband—"
She talked about everything except herself.
"Ahem." Fu Xiaojian coughed twice, interrupting her.
The term "waiting-for-husband stone" is used incorrectly.
"Shut up!" Jiao Jiao shouted without turning her head, then continued to glare at Xu Si, seemingly about to continue listing Xu Si's heinous crimes.
"Can't you just—"
Xu Si raised his hand and gently patted and rubbed her head.
Jiao Jiao's voice stopped abruptly.
She stood there, stunned, her mouth still open, and finally, tears streamed down her face.
"It won't happen again next time," Xu Si said.
Su Su floated down from the car roof and landed in front of Xu Si, her dark golden eyes scanning him up and down.
"You've advanced?" she asked, her usually aloof demeanor now betraying her shock.
The camp was quiet again.
All eyes were on Xu Si, and the shock in their eyes was almost overflowing.
Sequence 5 is the next step, which is Sequence 6.
That was a level they wouldn't even dare to dream of.
Xu Si nodded slightly, without saying anything more, just smiled as an answer.
"Not bad, not bad!" Fu Xiaojian finally realized what was wrong!
Isn't that right? Absolutely!
This makes it much easier for them to reunite with the Bright Team and other teams.
If Xu Si were to be stationed at the shelter, the sense of security would be absolutely overwhelming.
"By the way, I noticed you suddenly turned around earlier, why did that? I thought you were in danger?"
After Nirvana returned to its original form, Xu Si asked the question.
"Didn't you know? During the announcement at noon today, the Bright Team said they're building a shelter and inviting other teams to join them! And their [Apollo] is currently ranked 37th, capable of providing navigation!"
Xu Si was taken aback and looked at Nirvana. Nirvana didn't seem to have told him anything!
But he didn't ask.
"Shelter?" Xu Si repeated, as if pondering something.
"The information should be reliable. Judging from the current situation, the Brightness Caravan is quite large and is very likely the official caravan from before the apocalypse!"
"Moreover, when the report came at noon, the signal from the Guangming convoy was so clear it was like they were speaking right next to my ear. They said they had selected a location that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and were building a permanent shelter there."
"I think the racing team could lend a hand!"
Even if this attempt fails, we can still learn from the experience.
It helps whether you integrate into the Bright Caravan's shelter or establish your own.
Even if they ultimately fail, there must be quite a few teams gathered here, and exchanging ideas with other teams will surely be very rewarding.
"Maybe I can even see your sister!" The last sentence was said to Xu Si, and he knew where all of Xu Si's efforts came from.
"I have no objection! But how far is it?" Xu Si asked.
"We're not far, but I estimate it'll take about a month to travel! And we can't take detours!"
Previously, they always chose the safest route, the one with the lowest risk.
However, if you were to cut straight through, you would probably have to push through a lot of strange obstacles.
The risks involved are evident.
However, that was before Xu Si arrived.
Now, Fu Xiaojian is absolutely confident.
Seeing Xu Si frowning as if he was thinking about something, Fu Xiaojian did not disturb him.
In fact, Xu Si was considering whether to put the entire convoy in Nirvana, and then ride Nirvana all the way there. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
But let's skip it today; he just broke through to Sequence 6, and his foundation isn't stable yet.
It will take at least two or three days to familiarize oneself with one's own characteristics and the new sequence.
In case of any special circumstances, we won't be caught off guard.
However, his heart was filled with excitement.
After chatting with Fu Xiaojian and the others until late at night, Xu Si tried out the [Star Whisper Throat] again from Xiao Luo.
As a result, the "Blood Whisper" trait was not activated.
Although he had suspected it beforehand, he still couldn't help feeling disappointed.
Was it He who deliberately erased it?
Or is it the "causal isolation" that's at play?
Thinking of this, Xu Si really wanted to grind Fu Wanhao to dust.
"Brother Dao, are you alright?" Seeing Xu Si's furious expression, Xiao Luo asked using his spiritual sense.
"It's nothing! You've had a hard time these past two days."
