I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second Chapter 603: Blue Star Targeted
Previously on I Can Gain One Skill Point Per Second...
The derisive looks from the Blue Star professionals drove the Ancient Ape Star leader into a state of utter fury.
Seething with rage, he disregarded any consequences his impulsive strike might have for himself and his team. Clutching his machete tighter, he swung it fiercely toward Lin Yi’s neck.
The outcome was, naturally, inevitable.
Even without Lin Yi trying to dodge on purpose, the god-level passive skill [Flash] activated automatically, allowing him to evade the assault effortlessly.
Thus, although the Ancient Ape Star captain’s blade was aimed right at Lin Yi’s neck, Lin Yi somehow twisted away from the deadly chop with an absurdly bizarre posture as it came down.
This sight stunned the Ancient Ape Star captain completely.
No human body, no matter how agile, could pull off such an outrageous dodge, could it?
Furthermore, right after his attack, a strange golden light burst from Lin Yi’s form, shrouding him in an even more enigmatic presence.
Upon seeing his strike miss, panic gripped the Ancient Ape Star captain; he lifted his machete once more, pouring every ounce of power into a frenzy of slashes at Lin Yi.
As anticipated.
Given the primitive tech of Ancient Ape Star, how could they craft superior weapons? When those blades struck the unbreakable Lin Yi, only one result was possible.
The instant his weapon fragmented in his grasp, the Ancient Ape Star crew finally accepted the Blue Star professionals’ caution: this seemingly ordinary young man was truly Blue Star’s mightiest warrior.
With a mere mental command, crushing gravity erupted around the Ancient Ape Star group, forcing their spines to bend impossibly and making their bones creak ominously.
Horror flooded the eyes of the Ancient Ape Star team.
They harbored a primal dread for the unknown.
A human with freakish durability who could unleash such devastating gravity without incantations—wasn’t he a monster in the flesh?
"Hey, we kindly told you not to threaten Blue Star with Lin Yi. With your power that’s not even worth two kicks from a dog, how could you have the face to come exploring?"
After ridiculing the Ancient Ape Star squad, the Blue Star group swiftly shifted back to solemn faces and bowed respectfully to Lin Yi.
Xia had no plans to hoard resources, despite single-handedly crushing Insect Hive Star with its own professionals.
At Lin Yi’s signal, Xu Sheng dispatched the ready mining crew right away and released Insect Hive Star’s resource data plus blueprints via the Blue Star Professional Alliance.
Though unspoken, the message of shared exploitation rang clear.
Apart from endless thanks, the various nations’ leaders felt immense relief that Xia led Blue Star.
Would any other country show such vision?
These pros, not overly mighty and lacking boldness to tag along, could only offer Lin Yi their deferential thanks.
"Lin Yi, after Mr. Xu passed the map to the authorities, they dove straight into planning Insect Hive Star’s exploitation. Follow-up crews and gear will roll out step by step."
"Lin Yi, let me thank you again for the Blue Star Professional Alliance~"
The voice belonged to Stark, once a Beautiful Country pro.
Post that pivotal war reshaping Blue Star, Stark leveraged his tech arsenal and sharp mind to claim chief engineer status in the Blue Star Professional Alliance.
Naturally, his formidable battle prowess stood out too. As a War God wielding Supreme Law and backed by countless titles, he’d become vital to Blue Star.
"Oh, Mr. Stark, are we that formal these days?"
"I recall you looked after me well during that undercover stint not long back. Calling me bigshot now feels overly stiff, doesn’t it?"
Lin Yi’s remark drew a silent smile from Stark.
Stark knew full well if "bigshot" fit Lin Yi.
Lin Yi’s massive aid to Blue Star was plain for all to see.
"Lin Yi, more squads will push forward soon. Thanks to your dual aids, Blue Star’s War Gods have multiplied. Even sans you, Insect Hive Star’s resource ops should go off without a hitch. Mr. Xu suggests, if you’re free, head back to Blue Star for some downtime."
To a mere commoner, such words might ring like being discarded as a useless donkey after grinding the millstone.
Yet for Lin Yi, they carried precisely their surface-level truth.
Without doubt, Blue Star's prime savior required some proper downtime.
Lin Yi saw no reason to turn down the idea.
Storming Elemental Star and Ancient Ape Star couldn't be done in haste.
Sentient lifeforms dwelling on those twin worlds vastly outclass the insect swarms infesting Insect Hive Star.
A wild card lingered in whether their rulers could seize planetary consciousness during clutch moments.
All told, urgency held no sway right now.
Lin Yi planned to hold off until ample skill points allowed boosting planetary consciousness skills to stage 2.
Stage two upgrades demanded skill points Lin Yi could readily afford, delivering a mighty leap forward.
Given its planetary consciousness already dwarfed the rivals', this secured Lin Yi's dominance utterly.
Still, Lin Yi missed a vital point.
The Insect Nest Queen's dying declaration.
A tree looming over the woods draws the furious gales!
Ceaseless bloodshed forging endless source power forms the celestial gods' iron law, keeping Three Realms and Six Paths in balanced progression. Would upper realm overlords tolerate Blue Star wielding a planetary consciousness leagues beyond its equals?
Meanwhile, atop some upper realm planet.
Two formidable divine envoys faced off across from each other.
A colossal 3D holographic vista loomed before them.
Countless planets populated the hologram, radiating varied spectral glows, each marked with pinpoint coordinates and designations.
The envoy boasting a sheep's head atop a man's torso fixed his eyes on a dazzling violet planet, smacking his lips in wonder.
"This Blue Star stands out incredibly, gulping down the planetary consciousness of two others in mere moments. See there—the shade of its own planetary consciousness is undergoing a striking transformation."
The snake-headed envoy lashed his tongue while responding with nonchalance.
"Oh, it’s just a lower realm planet. Why make a fuss? Blue Star’s latest maneuvers suggest it aims to obliterate the other three planets bound to it. Without our meddling, won’t the higher-ups take offense?"
