Chapter 1797 - 1793: Transforming the Sol System into a Defense Formation (Part 3)
Chapter 1797: Chapter 1793: Transforming the Sol System into a Defense Formation (Part 3)
Unleashing all restraints, Chu Wuxiang, whose figure was like that of a giant, positioned a stone of at least several kilometers in size into its designated spot.
Boom!
Radiant lights emerged on the stone, then it connected with the previously set-up array.
At this point, these stones around the periphery of the Sol System were all transformed into an array, forming a complete entity.
Seeing this, Zhuge Cang let out a sigh of relief.
Ten days had passed by now. During these ten days, Xue An led Zhuge Cang, Ye Hanshang, and others throughout the Sol System, tirelessly working.
The cooperation of five Immortal Kings, along with the full support of Jin Jue, who was comparable to an Immortal King, began to gradually shape a gigantic defense formation.
Especially after the array at the edge of the Sol System was set up, a large framework was successfully established.
Of course, people on Earth were not idle either.
Upon learning of Xue An’s plan, all nations responded swiftly, contributing people, resources, or at least trying to offer assistance.
In short, the countries of the world had never reached such a unanimous consensus on anything.
The enthusiasm of Earth’s powerful beings was unprecedented because they knew the defense formation was purely established to protect Earth.
Concerning their own lives, how could they not care?
As the defense formation gradually took shape, the entire world was enveloped in an atmosphere of excitement mixed with tension.
The major media outlets concentrated all their efforts on this unprecedented grand project, continuously reporting the latest construction progress daily.
During this situation, members of the Fire Phoenix Special Team were naturally busy too.
They were dispatched to the moon to establish a defense base.
However, the Fire Phoenix Special Forces had undergone some changes; firstly, a female member joined them.
Xiao Rui, who had already awakened, joined the Fire Phoenix Special Forces with indisputable strength.
Although she remained taciturn, having successfully integrated her divine soul, she changed considerably.
For instance... now.
Zou Sui walked forward with a smile and snatched the sapper shovel from Xiao Rui’s hand.
"Take a rest, let me handle the rest!"
Saying this, he enthusiastically got to work.
Xiao Rui watched him as her cold gaze softened, then shook her head and busied herself once again.
This had become their usual interaction routine.
The rest of the Fire Phoenix Squad weren’t surprised by this, and no one made a fuss.
Because everyone knew that Zou Sui regarded Xiao Rui as his sister.
At this moment, a light flashed, and Xue An appeared at the unfinished lunar base.
"Instructor!"
"Hello, Instructor!"
Greetings erupted successively, and Xue An nodded with a smile, then fixed his gaze on Xiao Rui.
Looking at the girl who had faced many adversities, Xue An couldn’t help but feel a touch of compassion in his eyes.
"How are you feeling? Have your past memories returned?" Xue An asked softly.
Xiao Rui was silent for a moment, then shook her head, "No."
"Don’t worry if you can’t remember. Just remembering your name is Xiao Rui is enough!" Xue An said gently.
Xiao Rui nodded.
Then Xue An raised his head to look at the Fire Phoenix members who had formed a line, and spoke resolutely, "Other teams will take over your current tasks next. You are to go to a place and clear out the evil within it. Do you have confidence?"
Cheng Hao and the others shouted loudly, "We guarantee to complete the task!"
Xue An nodded, "Excellent! Prepare immediately and set off at once!"
Just then, Zou Sui asked curiously, "Instructor, may we know where we’re going?"
Xue An smiled slightly and said two words, "The Abyss!"
The Space-Time Passage leading to the Abyss within Kunlun had long been heavily sealed off, with soldiers guarding the area.
When Xue An led the Fire Phoenix Special Team to the site, troops who had been briefed on the orders withdrew to ten miles away.
With a wave of his hand, Xue An shattered all seals on the Space-Time Passage.
The ominous radiance gave everyone a creepy feeling.
Yet Xue An stepped boldly inside, "Follow me!"
Without hesitation, Cheng Hao and the others followed immediately.
The Space-Time Passage was now very stable, so everyone experienced just a brief blur before arriving on a black planet.
Soon, they were met by a multitude of demons before them.
Startled, Cheng Hao called out, "Level one combat readiness!"
With an order, the Fire Phoenix Special Forces moved swiftly, forming a simple yet effective defensive formation in a blink.
But at that moment, all the Abyssal Demons knelt down and hailed Xue An loudly.
"We pay homage to the King!"
The voices resonated far and wide, leaving the Fire Phoenix Squad stunned.
Xue An merely smiled lightly, "Rise, all of you!"
"Yes!"
Zhan Qianchen, Duan Wanfa, and Kang Shuai Fu, the three high-ranking demons, stood up first.
The rest of the demons then rose in turn.
"How’s the task I assigned you all going?" Xue An asked calmly.
Standing at the forefront, Zhan Qianchen looked embarrassed, "Replying to the King, we have cleansed most of the Abyss as commanded, and many have surrendered readily. But some factions refuse to submit, and despite several assaults, we haven’t succeeded yet... so..."
"And now those surrendered factions are beginning to stir, right?" Xue An said coldly.
Zhan Qianchen’s face broke out in cold sweat instantly, and he knelt hurriedly, "King, I beg your forgiveness, it is my incompetence!"
The other demons knelt down again.
"Enough!" Xue An waved his hand, "I am not blaming you; now, aren’t there a few factions unwilling to surrender? Let them handle it!"
While speaking, Xue An pointed at Cheng Hao and the others, speaking blandly.
"From now on, they are my representatives here, and their orders are equivalent to mine. This place is entrusted to their administration, you must fully comply without error. Understand?"
These words made Zhan Qianchen and the demons stiffen, and they all bowed, "Yes!"
Not only them, but Cheng Hao and the others were also somewhat stunned.
"Instructor, this..."
Xue An smiled, "The Abyss no longer has any strong presences now, it’s perfect for you to hone your skills. Besides, I have finalized the settings; once you thoroughly purify the Abyss, it will connect with Earth as a unified entity!"
"At that point, Earth will possess an extremely vast and promising realm for development, and this... is Earth’s first step toward the Multiverse!"
