The Game of Global Mining

Right when Chun was fleeing through the storm, that landing craft launched from the Empire warship actually didn’t choose to go down in flames heroically. Instead, it fired up its engines to full, wrapped itself completely in an Energy Shield of spatial fluctuations, and, unbelievably, shot forward at rocket speed, overtaking the escape!

Chun and the Queen were both shaken as the space shock wave it pushed out made their screen flicker!

The Queen suddenly jolted in panic: "My child!"

Chun looked back, and saw that the Little Winged Serpent couldn’t withstand the shock wave and the wind, and was blown away—no, according to Chun’s space map, it was being swept into another twisted spatial fork!

In this Void World, the ending of a child being separated from its mother is practically guaranteed!

As a not-very-competent father, Chun didn’t even think: "Quick, save the child!"

The Queen completely forgot her fear: "Child——"

But faced with the storm blasting sideways at them, the Queen simply didn’t have the strength to give chase!

Chun was desperate; could he only use wind to stop wind?

He had an Initial Tier Hurricane skill from his Storm Druid Profession, Level 1! Activate!

——System Prompt: With your Outstanding Wisdom, your Divine Craftsman Level Module Combination has integrated Basic Hurricane, Advanced Void Wind Perception. You have obtained insights into "Void Hurricane".

Insights?!

Holy Shit, don’t talk to me about Void Hurricane yet, what I want is my normal Hurricane! Where’s my wind?

In the raging Void Storm, Chun had no idea whether his Hurricane was successfully cast; even if it did succeed, it would just be a tiny splash, completely incapable of using wind to stop wind!

Right, the Hurricane description is about summoning the power of Sky Wind and Earth Wind, but here, there is only the vast Void Wind. He really did have to grasp "Void Hurricane" to borrow force to counter force, using wind to stop wind!

So his Wisdom wasn’t enough!

No problem, he just finished recharging from Crow Master’s knowledge legacy!

Chun immediately switched to his main account on the Observation Divine Domain farm, and first gave Aileen a heads-up: "Dear, I’m activating the Erudite Scholar skill, my body will be paralyzed, keep an eye on me..."

Aileen: "Huh?"

——Erudite Scholar Profession Prompt: You activate the Profession skill "Conversion Wisdom". Your body’s All Attributes are temporarily reduced by 50%. You obtain Random Wisdom Value "+???".

——System Prompt: Your physical Attributes have drastically decreased, entering a weakened state. Recovery time unknown.

The same friendly random "Three Question Marks" again!

The alt side immediately heard a barrage of prompt sounds!

Chun instantly switched to his alt, and sure enough:

...

Holy Shit, instant comprehension, jumping from Advanced straight to Master, from insight straight to Advanced!

Chun immediately felt the screen wasn’t shaking as hard, and a ring of dark Hurricane formed around him—this Hurricane clung to the storm like a Vortex nailed in place!

Chun was thrilled—this was the power of Wisdom, the terrifying "Three Question Marks"! This even integrated his previous Divine Artisan Level Swimming Skill too. As expected, all those seemingly useless skills he learned before were not learned in vain; this was the foundation that let him connect everything on the fly!

But looking at the Little Winged Serpent flying farther and farther away, this single Hurricane was still far from enough to save the day!

Chun instantly remembered the "Inspiration Enlightenment" reward he got when he advanced to Void Druid, and realized he could only use it on the Queen now!

——System Prompt: You impart "Inspiration Enlightenment" to Void Winged Serpent Queen!

The Queen was stunned: "Master?"

Chun didn’t waste words: "Save the child!!"

The Queen was practically in tears: "Thank you, Master!"

Now they could only hope that the power of her mother’s love would let her undergo Evolution again; otherwise, in the current situation, not only would they fail to save the child, they wouldn’t even be able to save the Chamber of Commerce crew on the escape boat!

And the Queen really didn’t let Chun down. Her two front wings suddenly burst with power, the wing surfaces expanding to double size, and her tail vibrated violently, flashing with lightning!

Chun looked back and saw that the tip of her tail had grown three little wings like helicopter tail rotors. The key thing was, they were crackling with electricity! Apparently, any Void Creatures even slightly high-grade could discharge electricity—this meant she was officially stepping into the high-end ranks!

——System Prompt: Your team member "Void Winged Serpent Queen" has undergone Evolution three times, advancing to "Void Storm Winged Serpent Queen"! Her power has skyrocketed! Void Storm Winged Serpent Queen’s favorability toward you has risen to "Intimate Loyalty".

Evolution!

In that instant, the ring of Void Hurricane around Chun suddenly burst with lightning and thunder and expanded outward by a full circle, and suddenly an intense tailwind shoved them forward at boosted speed!

——System Prompt: Congratulations! You have received wind-power support from Void Storm Winged Serpent Queen. You break through the limit; your Void Hurricane skill advances to Expert Level 10.

After breaking into Expert, Chun’s Hurricane spread outward by another big ring! And the tailwind acceleration sensation intensified even more!

Holy Shit~~~~

Chun could no longer describe how he felt. Expert and Master might as well be cabbages you can pick at will. He completes her, she completes him—it’s like left foot stepping on right foot, right foot stepping on left foot; there’s no way they’re not heading straight to the heavens!

With this speed and shield, catching up to the child was now possible...

...

Ten Lords Chat Group.

Michael and Uriel’s officers and soldiers all resurrected back onto each city’s plaza.

The Ten Lords had just watched what felt like a giant end-of-the-world blockbuster. Song exhaled a huge breath of relief and then became even more curious: "So that’s the Void God? Feels like two ships just blasted it to death. Not that impressive, huh."

Michael said gravely: "No, it entered its second form. Its Giant Whale form is just an Initial Tier god; this Void Storm is probably its true face."

Sela was eager to see what happened next: "Anyway, the fact it’s throwing out a storm means it’s dumping energy on empty space. Hurry up and apply to the Military Department for a second wave!"

Michael laughed: "Still have to wait for the Fourth Prince to come back—only his status has the power to mobilize. He boarded the landing boat early on, which would have fired up all engines to escape the danger zone, but then run low on fuel and have to drift back slowly. It’ll probably take a few hours."

Sela asked again: "Uriel, your landing boat doesn’t seem as advanced as the Empire’s escape craft. Can your Chamber of Commerce guys make it back?"

Uriel shook his head with a wry smile: "The Dragon Race landing craft is really built for Land Combat, not a lifesaving boat like the Empire’s. It’s probably still stuck in the storm, I’d guess?"

Speaking of that, Uriel said seriously: "There are a few members I don’t want anymore! But they’re shareholders, and I don’t have the authority to fire them yet. What should I do?"
