535: Niu Ruren who wanted to learn martial arts

Smoothing the goosebumps that had appeared on his arms, Li Gui subconsciously stood by the window amidst the deafening roar.

The splashing mud, sand, and water vapor covered the sky, and the entire world became hazy, as if being swept and ravaged by a sandstorm.

Detecting severe environmental pollution, Ya Zi immediately mobilized the space-based satellites.

In a short time, dozens of space-based satellites, mobilized by Ya Zi, flew over the Expeditionary Force's First Base.

Gravitational waves, invisible to the naked eye, fell to a low altitude through the space-based satellites, and a strong wind then swept through the heavens and earth, lifting the sky-filled water vapor and mud, and precisely sending them to the distant plain.

A casual strike, sealed by Yang Dian in the Star Core, completely pulverized the lakebed silt, rocks, and countless fish, shrimp, and shellfish.

These things just happened to be indispensable fertilizers for farming.

The meticulous Ya Zi subconsciously sent these waste materials to the plain for composting.

It wouldn't be long before that place would become a fertile field.

Soon after, the array of space-based satellites dispersed, the strong wind stopped, and the heavens and earth returned to clarity.

However, the sparkling, endless lake outside the window was gone.

All that remained was an enormous, bottomless sinkhole.

How big and how deep exactly?

Looking at the data measured by Ya Zi through the surveillance satellites, Li Gui subconsciously opened his mouth:

"50 kilometers in diameter, 13 kilometers deep?"

Hearing the numbers that came out of Li Gui's mouth, Lei Ming swallowed, turned his head, and looked at Yang Dian:

"This was your casual strike?"

"Its power must have exceeded that of a Little Boy, right?"

Yang Dian looked at Lei Ming and waved his hand:

"There's nothing to be surprised about."

"Old Daoist Qingfeng has also broken through to the Middle Stage of the Star Patrol Realm."

"If he works hard, he can also cause such great destruction."

Lei Ming was speechless.

Old Daoist Qingfeng was Old Daoist Qingfeng, and he was him.

The attack intensity that Old Daoist Qingfeng had to risk his life to achieve, Yang Dian made it seem as easy as spitting.

This power... it's like he's cheating!

Lei Ming once again began to doubt life, while Chen Ci looked at the dark, still smoking pit outside the window, and subconsciously tightened her grip on the Star Core in her palm:

"Commander, isn't the power of your casual strike a bit too great?"

Her voice was a little dry:

"50 kilometers in diameter, plus the blast wave's affected area, it feels like it would only be slightly safe beyond 80 kilometers."

"If the distance wasn't controlled well when throwing it, wouldn't this Move become a 'Heaven and Earth Together' type of attack?"

Yang Dian waved his hand:

"It's not that serious."

"I said before, you need to lock onto the target before shouting 'Wait'."

"Locking onto the target is equivalent to limiting the Star Core's explosion range, causing the Star Core to only interact and annihilate within a small area, instead of indiscriminately attacking like a nuclear bomb, as it is now."

"Also, the Formation I left in the Star Core wasn't left for nothing."

"After activating the Formation, if the situation around the Formation is too complex, I will perceive the situation immediately."

"At that time, I will come over and take a look."

This was purely Yang Dian talking nonsense.

Although he was strong, his strength was limited.

He couldn't yet perceive changes in things he left behind across Star Domains.

He could only achieve this step purely by relying on the little Dimension Butterfly.

But Chen Ci and the others didn't know that.

Upon hearing that there was a safety guarantee and that this item could summon Yang Dian to descend if they encountered trouble, everyone's expressions immediately became excited.

"With this treasure, aren't we invincible on the Strange Star? No matter how many strange creatures and ghost gods come, we'll kill them all!"

"Pride goes before a fall, Old Chen, you need to recognize your own strength. Those ten strikes of power were given to you by the Commander, not your own, and they'll be gone once you use them up."

Chen Xiang looked at Yang Dian upon hearing this:

"Commander, will they really be gone once they're used up?"

Looking at Chen Xiang's expectant eyes, Yang Dian shook his head slightly:

"That depends on how you use them."

"If they are used when encountering an irresistible threat, then we can replenish them for you."

"But if you use the Star Core directly whenever you encounter trouble, just to avoid it..."

"Tsk~"

Yang Dian didn't finish his sentence, but Chen Xiang understood the meaning.

Either they wouldn't have Star Cores to use in the future.

Or, they would be deemed unqualified as Commanders, and the capable would rise while the incompetent would fall.

In short, Yang Dian's soft 'tsk' made their hearts tighten.

Being a military officer, one could only go up, not down.

If they were demoted for making mistakes, they would probably be laughed at by old friends and become a laughingstock.

Just as everyone's hearts were tightening, Yang Dian tapped the office desk again and spoke:

"Most areas of the Strange Star are already under our control, and those remaining areas occupied by powerful strange creatures and ghost gods, I believe, will also be under our actual control soon."

"Here are a few things I want to say."

"First, rotation leave."

"The soldiers haven't been home in a long time."

"They are all born and raised by their parents, and it's not good for them to not go home for years."

"You all discuss a plan to ensure the stability of the controlled areas while allowing the soldiers to take turns resting in the rear."

At this point, Yang Dian's tone shifted:

"Of course, they can also do other things while resting."

"For example, going to schools to be instructors, teaching students a few Martial Arts Moves, talking about battlefield survival Laws, looking for good Martial Dao talents..."

Yang Dian was assigning tasks in the meeting room.

In Niu Ru Ren's spaceship, which had already turned around and was flying towards the wormhole, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded.

Commander Aola, who was about to enter the hibernation pod, turned to look at the monitor, and Ruth's voice then sounded:

"Commander, we just monitored high-energy fluctuations on the Beast-Ear Tribe's home planet."

As the voice fell, several photos and a video appeared before Aola.

After looking back and forth at the photos for a while, Aola finally stopped at the enormous sinkhole in the photo:

"Are you saying that an energy source appeared out of thin air, without the need for energy concentration or charging, and blew up a large lake into a super pit with a diameter of 50 kilometers and a depth of 13 kilometers?"

"How did humans do that?"

"I don't know." Ruth's tone also held a hint of confusion:

"My database has no relevant information, so I cannot determine how they did it."

"But based on current data extrapolation."

"There is a 53% chance that the energy source originated from the human guests who boarded our spaceship."

Saying that, he released a few more photos.

The photos showed Li Gui and the others coming to the window, staring dumbfounded at the lake.

Aola looked at the photos, her eyes also wide:

"You mean, carbon-based life forms used their own power to create a sinkhole 50 kilometers in diameter and 13 kilometers deep on a planet?"

"It's just a possibility."

Upon receiving Ruth's answer, Aola walked towards Arthur's location without looking back.

"Commander, where are you going?"

"I'm going to look at the Martial Arts the human guests left for Arthur."

"Oh, and that Martial Arts seems to be called..."

Aola said two Chinese words somewhat awkwardly.

"Spark..."
