Chapter 205: Chapter 205: The Fallen Base City (The Fourth Update)

Translator: 549690339

When Yue Zhenhua saw Gongsun Du arrive, he knew all hope was lost and it was impossible to kill Lin Zhen now.

But he still shouted at Gongsun Du, “Gongsun Du, the person who died is my son!”

“Countless martial artists come and go every day, ultimately returning to the embrace of the True God of the Stars. Yue Zhenhua, I show leniency for your son's death and didn't pursue the matter of him imprisoning Yue'er for two years. Don't be ungrateful and leave now.”

Yue Zhenhua glanced at Gongsun Du, slowly stood up, and took back his Mother-child Sword.

“Lin Zhen, this matter isn't over yet. As long as you're still part of Gale, I have plenty of ways to deal with you.”

At this moment, Lin Zhen also stood up: “I am ready whenever you are!”

Yue Zhenhua snorted coldly, turned around, and left the Star Fruit Tree. He then boarded his flying saucer and left God Generals Training Camp.

At this time, Guo MO walked over to Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue and said, “Lin

Zhen of Ice City Base City's Gale Martial Arts Hall and Su Mingyue of Capital Base City's God's Grace Cathedral, congratulations on completing your trial within the Star Fruit Tree and successfully advancing to War God level. I now formally announce that you have both graduated!”

Having said that, Guo MO handed the two graduation certificates to Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue.

Finally graduated, Lin Zhen let out a long sigh of relief.

“Lin Zhen, after discussion among all the instructors of God Generals Training Camp, your performance in the Star Fruit Tree has been unanimously recognized as the best male student of the 494th batch, so you are rewarded with a Star Artifact.”

“Star Artifact!” Lin Zhen's eyes brightened, as this was much more useful than a graduation certificate.

Guo MO then said to Su Mingyue, “Su Mingyue is awarded the best female student and also receives a Star Artifact.”

Su Mingyue nodded her head, showing no signs of extreme excitement.

Guo MO raised his hand, and ten boxes appeared from within his Space Ring: “There are a total of ten Star Artifacts here, including six Lower Grade ones with two each of attack, defense and support types, three Middle Grade types with one each of attack, defense and support types, and one High Grade attack type Star Artifact. You can choose according to your preferences, and each of you can choose once. Now begin.”

The people around them all dispersed, eager to see the luck of Su Mingyue and Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen's interest was immediately piqued upon hearing this, and if he could obtain a High Grade Star Artifact, it would truly be a great opportunity. A Star Artifact could bring a huge increase in a martial artist's strength. If he could equip a High Grade Star Artifact Spear with his current strength, he would definitely have the power to crush Intermediate War Gods and even fight Advanced War Gods.

Su Mingyue's beautiful eyes also sparkled with light as she stared at the boxes.

“Lin Lnen, you cnoose nrsc.

“You choose first, Yue'er. I believe that you can pick the one you like.”

Su Mingyue nodded her head and pointed to the box closest to her, “I choose this one.”

Guo MO, who didn't know what was in each box, walked over and asked while opening the box, “Yue'er, why did you choose this one?”

Actually, Su Mingyue and Guo MO were not very familiar with each other, and Guo MO's relationship with Gongsun Du was also not very deep. But considering his position and age here, it was not wrong for him to call Su Mingyue “Yue'er.”

Su Mingyue glanced at Guo MO, then said, “Because this box is closest to me.”

Guo MO was speechless, he opened the box, which contained a piece of paper inside.

“Ah! A High Grade Star Artifact of your choice!” Guo MO was stunned for a moment, this actually worked.

The other nine boxes all contained Star Artifacts, but only the High Grade one was a free choice. Su Mingyue had chosen it in one go.

Even Gongsun Du couldn't help nodding frequently, agreeing that Su Mingyue's luck was really beyond words.

Su Mingyue's eyes were also bright with excitement: “Can I choose any weapon type?”

“Of course.” Guo MO nodded with a smile.

“Then I choose…”

Before Su Mingyue could finish speaking, Lin Zhen quickly interjected, “She needs a sword, no need to ask about it.”

Guo MO nodded, “Alright, it seems Yue'er's current sword is a bit outdated. Later, Uncle Guo will pick the best sword for you.”

Su Mingyue looked at Lin Zhen, as his answer was obviously not what she intended.

Lin Zhen looked at Su Mingyue, “Silly girl, stop thinking only about others, alright?”

“But I got the High Grade Star Artifact, and now you won't have one.”

“It doesn't matter, I already have a spear, and a Middle Grade Star Artifact isn't bad either. Yue'er, since your luck is so good, help me choose one.”

Su Mingyue didn't hesitate and immediately pointed to the one next to her box:

“This one.”

Guo MO walked over and opened it, revealing a pair of shoes inside.

“Yue'er, you're so lucky. It's really a Middle Grade Star Artifact and a shoe-type one at that. This is quite rare.” Lin Zhen took it and looked it up and down, his face full of joy.

“Cloud Step. This is a Middle Grade Star Artifact that combines defense and flight attributes. Its value is not much worse than that of High Grade offensive ones.”

Lin Zhen, as a Spiritual Mind Master, needed a shield every time he flew, sometimes using liquid metal as a substitute. It wasn't very convenient, but these shoes could replace the Mind Master's flying carrier, and they also had an incredibly strong defense for the feet. They were indeed very rare.

Although he didn't get a High Grade offensive Star Artifact, Lin Zhen knew that offensive Star Artifacts were the most common. Even the High Grade ones were, in some sense, not as practical as these shoes.

Seeing Lin Zhen obtain a good Middle Grade Star Artifact, Su Mingyue showed a sweet smile, which made Gongsun Du beside her frown repeatedly, muttering that girls shouldn't grow up too fast.

Because Lin Zhen still had injuries, the God Generals Training Camp kept things simple. After a few short speeches, the graduation was over.

“Lin Zhen, Su Mingyue, you are always welcome to come back and visit. If you are willing, you can also come back as instructors, we will welcome you anytime.”

Lin Zhen and Su Mingyue nodded in agreement, then bid farewell to everyone.

Gongsun Du had already gone onto the flying saucer and instructed the two of them to follow immediately.

Lin Zhen originally thought they should return to Ice City Base City, but his wounds needed treatment, and he also needed to go to Capital Base City, where vitality potions from the European Union were sold. He now had money and could buy them for his parents, so he followed Su Mingyue onto Gongsun Du's flying saucer.

After boarding the saucer, it ascended and flew in the direction of Capital Base City.

However, Lin Zhen felt the atmosphere was a bit off. Gongsun Du had a stern face and didn't speak, sitting there watching the TV screen, and Su Mingyue was like a little girl who had done something wrong – she remained silent with her head down on the side.

Lin Zhen still respected Gongsun Du, as he had a deep impression of him from his past life.

In his past life, when extraterrestrial civilization came, Gongsun Du had even cultivated to the Meteor Stage. He was one of the top people on Earth.

When the extraterrestrial civilization invaded, Gongsun Du didn't resist at first and even had contact with the invaders. At that time, Lin Zhen somewhat looked down on him, thinking he would attach himself to the invaders and become a traitor.

But later, when Su Mingyue fought the invaders and died on the spot, Gongsun Du erupted in anger.

First, he pretended to surrender and led a group of invaders into the God's

Grace Cathedral. A fierce battle broke out there, and the seemingly harmless Gongsun Du madly attacked the invaders. He killed eleven of them single-handedly and then stormed a space battleship that was invading the Capital area. In the end, he successfully detonated the warship, becoming the first Martial Artist in the Asian region to destroy an extraterrestrial warship.

Of course, Gongsun Du also died in that battle. The huge explosion that almost blocked out the sky left a deep impression on Lin Zhen.

This man was a rational, calm and powerful individual. His only weak point might be Su Mingyue, the girl he raised with his own hands.

Not his daughter but more than a daughter; it was normal that he was in a bad mood at this time.

Lin Zhen approached him silently and said, “Senior Gongsun.”

However, Gongsun Du suddenly interrupted Lin Zhen: “Don't talk. Sit down.”

Lin Zhen hesitated for a moment, but still sat down. Su Mingyue immediately came over and began to bandage Lin Zhen's wounds with gauze she found somewhere.

Gongsun Du glanced and snorted coldly, then turned up the volume of the satellite TV.

Lin Zhen smiled bitterly, thinking that this would not be easy to deal with, especially since Su Mingyue's star-gazing mirror was broken because of him. Who knows what other troubles this might lead to.

Su Mingyue silently bandaged Lin Zhen's wounds, gently biting her red lips, her feelings clear in her uneasy mood.

At this moment, the sound of the TV drew everyone's attention.

“Latest news: The month-long battle for the African Union's Cape Town Base

City has come to an end today. Cape Town Base City has been breached by Mutated Beasts. A large number of African Union Martial Artists who went to support Cape Town have been killed. The evacuation of Cape Town was not smooth, and they encountered ambushes from Mutated Beasts along the way. According to incomplete statistics, the number of ordinary citizens killed has risen to 9 million!”

The satellite broadcast showed battle scenes. The walls of Cape Town had been knocked down by a group of Mutated Rhinos, and smoke filled the air everywhere. People screamed and fled in all directions, while countless Mutated Hyenas, Mutated Porcupines, Mutated Zebras, and Mutated Leopards attacked the fleeing crowds.

Fighter jets took off, and in the sky, massive Mutated Vultures larger than ordinary jets swarmed around them. Soon, the cockpit of a fighter jet was torn open, the pilot was torn apart in the air by the Vultures, and the fighter jet spiraled out of control and crashed.

Tanks emerged from the collapsed walls to engage in battle. A giant mutated elephant, ten meters tall, charged, crushing a tank with a single footstep.

At some sections of the walls, resistance was still ongoing. A Mutated Giraffe charged, its massive head sweeping over the wall, swallowing four or five soldiers at once. The beeping machine guns went silent.

Snakes slithered through the streets, and monkeys leaped from rooftop to rooftop. The army was completely defeated.

In some places, Martial Artists continued their resistance. Lin Zhen even saw several black-skinned African War Gods defending a position, continuously killing a large number of Mutated Beasts. However, a Mutated Lion with three heads, larger than an armored car, suddenly leaped onto the wall, and after a few ferocious attacks, the three War Gods were killed on the spot, their bodies obliterated.

“S-level Mutated Beasts! That lion is an S-level Mutated Beast!” Gongsun Du's eyes narrowed, and he spoke up.

After devouring several War Gods, the lion roared to the sky. The satellite's view then zoomed out, revealing a vast plain where countless Mutated Beasts could be seen, covering the entire field of vision..
