Chapter 159 152 In a Blink of an Eye

after ejecting wo duoer from infia, bai zhongqi took the extra precaution of deploying a dragonfly drone in stealth mode to track him. the appearance of the mage tower on the coast of the southern continent made bai zhongqi somewhat cautious.

however, tracking them did not yield any useful information, as wo duoer and se boluo actually jumped into the water. although the dragonfly drone was capable of submersion, it lost track of the two beneath the waves.

this cast a slight shadow over bai zhongqi. after all, mages are actually star warriors and having some means unknown to iridium star was within reason. but the empire's stellar transmission academy had also conducted in-depth research on star energy, and the mages and prophets of emerald sea star were of a lower level.

they had to be taught with the knowledge of the stellar transmission academy, leading the iridium star people to have certain preconceptions.

while bai zhongqi still had reservations about construction on earth, he was much more efficient with his methods on emerald sea star. in just over two months, bai zhongqi had essentially completed the emerald sea star orbital architecture cluster, and the emerald sea star shipyard had also launched several new ships.

not only that, but trade between emerald sea star and earth had also officially begun, with the high-yield crops grown in the agricultural zone of the legendary continent maturing and being sent off on interstellar cargo ships bound for earth. other minerals produced by emerald sea star and the products from the infia industrial zone and orbital factory were also continually arriving on earth.

there were also some goods from earth being shipped to be sold on emerald sea star, with infia now being the main purchaser of earth commodities. the scale wasn't large yet, but there was a variety of categories.

because many products made by iridium star were being traded to country c either without compensation or through barter, there wasn't much currency involved, but the actual value was significant.

the interstellar passenger transport route had also been opened, but bai zhongqi couldn't possibly use the sacred falcon class battlecruiser, capable of second-level warp speed, to create a warp bubble and lead a group of cargo and passenger ships around. the shipping ships generally come with their own warp engines, and their speed does not exceed warp 7.

the journey from ruyi city spaceport to emerald sea star spaceport took just over five days.

han jiaxue was one of those who took a passenger ship from ruyi city to infia. when bai zhongqi learned that han jiaxue was coming to infia, he was very happy and personally went to the infia ground spaceport to greet her.

their relationship was very delicate — intimate yet not intimate. when they met, bai zhongqi, the chancellor of iridium star, blushed first, while han jiaxue confidently approached, hugged him gently, and kissed his cheek.

bai zhongqi quickly said, "it wasn't easy coming here, you've had quite a journey."

han jiaxue laughed and said, "it's nothing, really. i'm hardly idle. the school has arranged a ton of material for the deep sleep learning system that i have to get through, and i can do it remotely too. i can attend class on the ship just like everyone else."

upon entering, han jiaxue saw the holographic projector on the table displaying the impacts of war. bai zhongqi thought to himself that this wasn't good, and hurriedly turned off the screen.

han jiaxue sighed and said, "i've actually heard from others that there is a war going on in the northern continent."

although the conflict in the northern continent had been ongoing for some time, it had not spread widely on earth, given that it was happening in another galaxy, and bai zhongqi was controlling the information. but han jiaxue, being in ruyi city, naturally managed to learn something about it.

looking at her expression, bai zhongqi felt that she might have been reminded of the tragedy in san francisco, and the soft spot in his heart was touched. he stepped forward to hold her tender body in his arms and said softly, "don't worry, i will definitely protect you."

han jiaxue, feeling his warmth, let out a soft "mm-hmm."

bai zhongqi was about to take this opportunity to say something more personal, but before he could start, he suddenly felt a peculiar tightness in his chest.

hum!

a shock that went from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head made bai zhongqi feel an intense shaking around him. intelligent devices and the holographic projector on the table fell, wall hangings also dropped, and even more terrifying was the sensation that all objects were vibrating in an extremely eerie frequency together.

the daunting sound waves produced by the vibration were profoundly uncomfortable.

han jiaxue went pale, also feeling the strong tremor. almost within a second, without even time to hesitate, the entire building started to crumble apart.

the huge alloy composite construction materials of the roof, which in theory could withstand the blast of several thousand tons of tnt equivalent, had at that moment developed a series of uniform cracks. in a situation with no time to react, pieces of the alloy composite from the roof violently crashed down, right where bai zhongqi and han jiaxue were!

han jiaxue was the first to react, using all her strength to push bai zhongqi out of the way.

as bai zhongqi fell to the ground, the whole palace collapsed with a thunderous roar!
