Chapter 1309: 1243, Drac Arrives (Part 1)_2 Chapter 1309: 1243, Drac Arrives (Part 1)_2 “Alright, if we can return to Blue Star, I'll go retrieve these artifacts right away,” Elder Zhu said solemnly.
These artifacts are the essence of human civilization. Sky Dragon consciously protects these essences, leaving much credit to human civilization.
“Then farewell, everyone!”
“Farewell!”
After bidding farewell once again, the portal opened, and the figures of Su Yu and Sky Dragon disappeared into the sky.
Swift, Elder Zhu, and the children of Blue Star watched this scene, speechless for a long time.
Time flew by swiftly.
Soon, eight days passed, and it was November 9th.
November 9th, autumn climate set in, and the weather across Huaxia Nation remained mostly clear.
After nearly two months of rampage, the violent spirit energy engulfing Blue Star had mostly dissipated.
Now the Huaxia Nation was no longer under a veil of purple miasma; only high in the sky could faint traces of purple be seen, the violet violent spirit energy on the ground had long been absorbed completely by the “Wind Leaf.”
Without the threat of violent spirit energy, Blue Star naturally burst with renewed vitality!
Though it was autumn now, it was just the onset of autumn; coupled with Blue Star's spiritual energy being abundant, everywhere in the North China Plain's wilds was a sea of green, lush and vibrant!
Cities were the same, dried parks, road flowerbeds, and tree pits by the roadside all exploded with robust green hues.
Green shoots broke through the soil, and everywhere was a scene of thriving greenery!
However, people paid no heed to this greenery. Everyone was all too aware that the Drac would arrive in these two days.
Confronting this planet level four adversary, Blue Star had no chance of a comeback.
After the last calamity and food scarcity, the current population of Blue Star humans was only a third of its peak, that is, over 2 billion people.
Now, these more than 2 billion people did almost nothing, gathering together in groups, numbly chatting with those around them, words few and far between:
“Heh, the apocalypse is these next two days, right?”
“According to the time, it should be. Cough, cough!”
The speaker was an elderly man who took a fierce drag of his cigarette, white hair fluttering, accompanied by a violent cough.
“Sigh! No matter how you look at it, witnessing the end of the world makes our lives not in vain, right?”
A young man lay on the hard asphalt road with arms behind his head, looking up at the azure sky.
“It's not in vain, but I haven't lived enough yet!”
“Who has lived enough? But life is full of all kinds of surprises.”
“Just pretend it was an accidental death.”
“I just hope the Drac can personally kill me, being killed by such a big shot personally, I could count this life as not lived in vain!”
“You mean 'claw' to death, it doesn't have hands!”
There were even those making bitter jokes.
“Sigh! Saying this makes no sense, let's quietly wait for death.”
“Sigh!”
“Sigh!”
Amidst bursts of sighs, people quietly awaited the arrival of death.
Meanwhile, Su Yu and Sky Dragon were sitting shoulder to shoulder on the side of the Himalayan Mountains.
The place they sat was at such a high elevation, surrounded by a world of white snow, the pervasive whiteness highlighting an extremely cold world.
Sitting on the snow, behind them was a circular spiritual energy defensive formation that protected the finest historical artifacts from around the world.
But due to the vast number of historical artifacts… No, it should be said that the valuable, worthy-to-protect historical artifacts were so numerous, that this circular defensive formation behind them was built using the largest model, with a full diameter of 2,000 meters!
Precisely because the defensive formation was too large, both Su Yu and Sky Dragon worried that the formation might not withstand the power of the blood sacrifice and break prematurely, which would cause their artifact protection plan to fail catastrophically.
To resolve this issue, after careful discussion, Su Yu and Sky Dragon decided not to go anywhere else, just to stay in front of the protective array.
With them guarding it, the formation would certainly not be broken by the power of the blood sacrifice, and the large formation could continue standing through the blood sacrifice.
Sitting on the snow, Su Yu and Sky Dragon both gazed silently at the starry sky above them, wordlessly.
This state had lasted for a day and a night.
During this day and night, they sat there motionless like ice sculptures.
In fact, there was no need for them to move.
They just needed to quietly wait for the Drac to arrive; almost any other action would be in vain.
It was only at noon, at 12:00, that Sky Dragon, who had been playing the role of an ice sculpture, spoke the first words.
“Nemesis.”
“What is it?” Su Yu turned his stiff neck to look at her.
“Actually, I've had a question I've wanted to ask for a long time, can you tell me the reason now?”
“What question?”
“It's like this.” Sky Dragon also turned her head to look at him and brushed aside the hair scattered by the wind: “Recollecting the first time we entered the Evo Game, how did you manage to progress so far ahead of all the other players?”
Sky Dragon slightly furrowed her brow: “While this can be attributed to a natural gaming aptitude, there are so many people in the world with gaming aptitude, why you?”
“Why not me?” Su Yu shrugged slightly.
“No, what I mean is…” Sky Dragon thought for a moment, rephrased and said: “In the 'gaming aptitude' domain, the aptitude values from second place to the thousandth place are quite average, with no particularly large gaps between every two individuals.
“It's like a score sheet with a total of 100 points, the second place scores 80, the third also 80, until the tenth at 79.5, then slowly decreases.
“But you're different…”
Sky Dragon stared straight at Su Yu's face: “If the range from second to the thousandth is between 70 and 80 points, then you're a full 100!”
