Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)
chapter-1659

1659 Red Thorn is Summoned!

“In order to eliminate all the alien insects, the sand had expanded to 5,000 square kilometers. However, the location of our ranking is only one square kilometer. In such a space, the power of the quicksand will be unimaginable compared to its current state.”

The girl who just managed to keep her place as Sequence #89 said, “You can’t put it like that! Black’s sand-type source type lifeform needs time to generate sand.”

Zhao Xiaochun shot back. “You saw how Black could recover his spiritual power when flying! Anyone would need time to alter the environment. We walk on the land where the sand-elemental source-type lifeform can change to earth if it so desires. Black can fight as well on land with this sand-elemental source-type lifeform, as Long Tao and I can fight in the sea. Thus, he will definitely be able to change the environment of the testing ground faster.

“Moreover, this is only one of Black’s feys. I agree with Shi Xu’s comment that Black will definitely be able to make it to at least Sequence #3. To be honest, Black grew really quickly! I suspect that he has been purposely hiding his powers.

“His sand-elemental source-type lifeform can counter Liu Jie’s army of insects. There would be no opportunity for the terrestrial Flesh-Mincing Blade Insects to properly demonstrate their capabilities.”

While the people around him were engaged in discussions, a smile akin to the one that appeared when the Insect Queen recovered from the near-death state appeared on Liu Jie’s face.

He was Lin Yuan’s retainer knight. If Lin Yuan were insulted, he would use his life to avenge him. But if Lin Yuan was praised, Liu Jie would be filled with pride.

The others were unaware, but Liu Jie knew full well how far Lin Yuan had come.

While Lin Yuan had been growing at a breakneck pace, he had also been hiding his powers.

Despite being Lin Yuan’s retainer knight, even Liu Jie was not completely clear on how powerful Lin Yuan had become.

It was not until the fight between Lin Yuan and Zong Ze at the Guard Ye Banquet that Liu Jie realized Lin Yuan had been hiding a well of combat power.

At that moment, an urgency had risen within Liu Jie.

While the rest of the members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence were looking up to him, he was struggling to catch up to Lin Yuan.

All of his growth, whether it was the Cocoon of Evolution, the mutation of the Blade Queen Bee, the ability to control insect-species carcinoma feys, or his newly obtained Firefly Demon Fetuses, had to be attributed to Lin Yuan.

Liu Jie’s only wish in life was to stay by Lin Yuan’s side and fight side by side with him.

Perhaps, Lin Yuan was already so radiant that he could blind the entire world. All he needed to do was to stay by Lin Yuan’s side like a star adorning the moon.

Many audience members on Star Web had been accusing Black of treating the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection like a vacation.

But now, all of those people had their jaws zipped shut.

Black’s popularity on Star Web exploded.

After watching the Radiance Hundred Sequence selection for an entire day, their interest was waning.

They had been nervous as they watched the contestants at the center territory take on the insect tide.

But even after fighting for several hours, there was no change in the situation.

A person would become bored after playing a tower defense game for a few hours.

Although the activity on Star Web had not dwindled, there were many people who did not immediately log back on after logging out to sleep and eat.

This was unsurprising as even the contestants in the midst of the test needed to eat.

After exhausting themselves for an entire day, the contestants changed shifts and allowed their teammates to take over while they slept for one or two hours to replenish their energy.

The comments in the live-streaming rooms were also not streaming in with the same frenzy as they were in the beginning.

Lu Shuang was not even watching the comments anymore.

Now, it was even possible for a comment to remain on the screen for more than a second.

However, the shocking activity of the sand had reawakened the audience’s excitement.

Hehe: Ah! My husband is amazing! I don’t want to be a male fan anymore! I want to cross swords with Black!

Naming is So Difficult: Damn! What did I just see? How did so many alien insects and abyss demons die? How did Black do it?

Hush: What’s going on? Did Black just destroy all the alien insects and abyss demons? Why does he feel like an NPC in this test?

Items Are Not People: I think you’re right! Black seems just like an NPC! I already said that Black and the person he teamed up with would definitely be able to become members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence. My guess was tight! Black can carry another nine people with him to survive the test and become members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Carnelian Tangerine: Please don’t spout nonsense! Gao Feng is the Young Leader of a top faction. He might not be as strong as Black, but he won’t need anyone to carry him to become a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence.

Lu Shuang did not have the authority to talk about the Source Sand. After all, Black had not used the Source Sand when he fought against Lu Shuang.

However, this was not the case for Poison Beauty because she had once been in the tight clutches of a fist formed from sand and even sunk deep into the sand.

She was all too familiar with the suffocating sensation of being smothered by the quicksand.

While the discussions on Star Web were intensifying, Lin Yuan realized that it would be impossible for him to control the situation on the ground using only the Source Sand.

Even if Gao Feng continuously replenished his spiritual power and injected spiritual power into the Source Sand, it was too much to ask of the Source Sand to control the alien beasts from ten pinnacle Class 1 dimensional rifts and ten pinnacle Class 2 dimensional rifts.

The best plan would be to use Red Thorn because Red Thorn’s sea of flowers used the flesh of alien insects as sustenance.

The alien insects’ flesh would be the best source of energy for the sea of flowers, and Lin Yuan would not have to supply any additional spiritual power.

However, this was not the case for the Source Sand.

Luckily, no one outside of the sand castle could see what was happening within.

Lin Yuan waved his hand and summoned Red Thorn.

After Red Thorn was summoned, it flew around Lin Yuan and pecked Lin Yuan’s cheek before letting out a clear chirp.

Gao Feng did not find it strange that a fairy source-type lifeform was acting affectionately toward Lin Yuan.

Fairy source-type lifeforms were more emotional than regular feys.

But as Gao Feng stared at Red Thorn, he kept asking himself what he was looking at.

Was this a six-winged fairy?
