Chapter 52: Ghost Fire Boy Takes The Stage!
“By the way, Dan Heng, how are March and the others?” Himeko asked.
During research, Himeko was fully focused and had no time to check the group chat for messages.
“They’re doing well. They met a pretty pitiful young girl who wants to ride our train to live on other planets. Dan Heng also sent a message a few days ago. The local Dragon Clan is oppressed by the God Realm and doesn’t plan to keep hiding in this universe. They want to follow him and leave this universe.” Welt said.
“In that case, we need to add a few train cars.” Himeko said.
“Then let’s add them. To recreate the glory of the Nameless, just these remaining train cars aren’t enough. Fuel was always insufficient before, with no spare capacity to add train cars. Now fuel is full, and many things can be put on the agenda.” Welt said.
Stellar Train cars aren’t something you can just add casually. Train cars must be able to bear powerful Pioneer Power, or during warp jump or enemy attack, even a slight graze would damage them, which is very dangerous.
During the manufacturing process of train cars, sufficient fuel must be added to perfectly integrate with the previous train cars and gain the protection of pioneering.
“Once my research is finished, I’ll get started on this. Welt, if you encounter trouble that’s hard to solve, you can call me out to help.” Himeko said.
“Mm, I understand.” Welt nodded.
Himeko re-entered the laboratory.
Time flew like a torch, days and months shuttled by, and more than a year passed quickly.
The Asura God King, using the ability of the God of Space, blocked the train several times, but couldn’t do anything to Welt.
Even if the Asura God King made targeted arrangements based on the abilities Welt showed, Welt would use new methods to easily block them.
By now, the Asura God King finally understood that he was no match for Welt at all. The initial appearance of being evenly matched was completely because the other side wasn’t serious!
Not striking hard all along proved that Welt truly had no malice toward them.
But that didn’t mean the Asura God King could sit idly by and watch Welt open the passage between the two realms, entrusting the safety of the God Realm to others’ mercy—it was completely unwise!
The Asura God King decided to convene the God Realm Conference and have the other four God Kings join forces!
The God Realm Conference quickly passed, and after the five God Kings discussed, they decided to set up restrictions on the must-pass route of the Stellar Train to completely trap it.
All the gods of the God Realm mobilized, pursuing and intercepting, guiding the Stellar Train toward the direction of the trap.
By the time they realized it, it was too late. Ahead was a powerful restriction set up with the power of the God Realm, and behind were thousands of gods from the God Realm.
“Although I really hate Acheron driving the train into the wall built by the Amber Lord, now we can only crash through it too!” Pamu on the train said with a serious expression, a hint of nostalgia in its eyes.
“Accelerate, Pamu!”
Pamu’s fluffy hand heavily slapped the button beside it, and the fuel on the train burned furiously.
Pioneer Power enveloped the entire train, and its already extremely fast speed instantly increased by two or three times, like a beam of light, unstoppable as it crashed toward the restriction.
The Stellar Train wasn’t personally driven by Acheron, but the God Realm’s restriction wasn’t a city wall forged by the Amber Lord either!
“Pfft!”
The restriction that the God Realm had painstakingly set up was like a bubble, instantly popped, unable to block even for a moment. The Stellar Train vanished from the gods’ sight in an instant.
The gods were dumbfounded, as if back to the time when the Asura God King first intercepted the Stellar Train, only on a scale several times larger.
“Even this restriction couldn’t trap the train. How did you stop it before?” The God King of Destruction asked the Asura God King in disbelief.
“I… I don’t know. I just stood directly in front of the train, and it stopped.” The Asura God King said with confusion in its eyes.
Given the Stellar Train’s performance just now, if it hadn’t stopped on its own before, it would probably have smashed him into blood mist several times!
“So it stopped voluntarily because it was worried about killing you? They’re pretty nice people. Maybe we should just let it go?” The Kind God King suggested.
“No!” The Evil God King said firmly. He, who controlled the power of evil, was always inclined to assume the worst malice in others.
“Regardless of whether they’re good people, once the passage opens, can you guarantee everyone on the other side is a good person? Can you guarantee they won’t change their minds in the future?” The Evil God King’s fierce gaze swept over the gods one by one.
“I’ve clashed with him multiple times. His power essence surpasses ours. The world on his side definitely isn’t weak, and we’re very likely no match.” The Asura God King had the most say in this.
“Then try again. No need for restrictions. Have gods directly block in front of the train and force it to stop.” The God King of Destruction said.
“What if we push them too far and they just crash into us?” The Kind God King said worriedly.
“Womanly compassion!” The God King of Destruction snorted coldly.
A gentleman can be deceived with reason; this method would only work against the train crew.
Douluo Continent.
Over this year plus, the Pioneer Squad hadn’t just wandered around the Douluo Continent; they also took a trip to the neighboring Sun Moon Continent.
The four took another small step forward on the path of pioneering destiny, with their strength improved somewhat.
Meng Huaifeng’s Yunqi Spear Technique had reached perfection, truly possessing combat power matching his destiny level.
Zhu Zhuqing’s soul power had increased by more than ten levels, now a level 45 Soul Sect.
Returning to the Heaven Dou Empire, they naturally had to visit acquaintances. The five walked on the streets of Heaven Dou City, asking passersby about Dugu Bo’s residence.
As Heaven Dou City’s only publicly known Titled Douluo, Dugu Bo still had great prestige. The five quickly found his residence.
“Go notify Dugu Old Mister. Old friends are visiting.” Dan Heng said to the gatekeeper.
Seeing the five had extraordinary bearing, the gatekeeper didn’t dare neglect and immediately went in to report. Based on the gatekeeper’s description, Dugu Bo immediately judged who these so-called old friends were.
“Hahaha, after nearly two years apart, I’ve finally seen you benefactors again.” Before the person arrived, they heard Dugu Bo’s delighted laughter.
Then Dugu Bo appeared before everyone.
At this time, Dugu Bo was completely different from when they first met two years ago. Back then, Dugu Bo had green hair, a withered face, stiff expression, green light in his eyes, looking like poison had entered his body and he wouldn’t live much longer.
Now Dugu Bo had shiny black hair, wrinkles faded, robust body, rich expressions, looking about like a middle-aged man.
“Old Poison, long time no see. How have these two years been?” Meng Huaifeng asked with a smile.
“Thanks to you benefactors, I’ve had a good two years. Let’s talk specifics inside.” Dugu Bo enthusiastically welcomed the five into the residence.
Nearby passersby could hardly believe that was Dugu Bo just now. Dugu Bo was arrogant even toward Emperor Xue Ye. What kind of people could make him act like this?
The news of the five being personally welcomed by Dugu Bo quickly spread to the various forces in Heaven Dou City.
