The Ultimate Divine Class-Chapter 410 - 335 Dumb Teammate, Stupid to the Core_1

Extreme Heat Saber Matiss, ranked twenty-fourth on the World Supernova Ranking... The Earth Armament of the Distant Star Federation... Both possess combat power at least at mid-Fourth Order. What should we do now?

On the side of the Sum Country Supernova trio, Yin Muqing was secretly discussing strategy with her two teammates using a special method. All three of them looked rather upset. The prize they thought was securely in their grasp had been suddenly jeopardized by interlopers, making them the weakest of the three factions present. They felt as if a cooked duck was about to fly away.

"Our person is holding the Phoenix Feather right now; we still have the advantage..." Ling Yu’s eyes flashed as he quickly made a decision. "Later, I’ll try to hold off Matiss and the two from the Distant Star Federation’s Earth Armament," he said. "You two will be responsible for clearing out the other forces remaining on the field." He then suddenly pointed towards the young Yellow Bear in the distance, on whose shoulder a bird carrying the ’Phoenix Feather’ was perched. The young man was the focus of almost everyone’s Spiritual Power. "By the way," Ling Yu asked Yin Muqing, "what’s that lucky guy’s name?"

"Lu Yuan," Yin Muqing replied swiftly. "His name is Lu Yuan. I remember it."

"Can you get in touch with him?" Ling Yu said in a deep voice. "We need his full cooperation for the upcoming operation. If he’s smart enough, we have a good chance of getting our hands on the Phoenix Feather..." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"I understand." Yin Muqing lowered her head, then quickly raised it. Shaking her head, she said, "I tried to connect to his communicator, but there was no response..."

"Maybe he’s just too stunned by the situation..." the slightly dark-skinned young man frowned and said.

Yin Muqing thought for a moment and nodded. "It’s possible..." She remembered Lu Yuan’s reckless attempt to save someone earlier. For a newcomer with little experience in exploring Secret Realms and even less exposure to major confrontations, the likelihood of being overwhelmed by the successive appearance of high-level experts was indeed high.

With this in mind, Yin Muqing instinctively glanced towards Lu Yuan. She saw the handsome young man, the center of the vortex, standing perfectly still with a calm expression, his eyes slightly lowered. Every now and then, he would turn his head to look at the bird perched on his shoulder, his lips moving as if... he was still talking to the bird. To be "frightened" to this extent... Sigh. Yin Muqing shook her head, completely abandoning the idea of communicating with him.

"It seems we’ll have to rely entirely on ourselves..." Ling Yu also sounded a bit helpless. He scanned the field and said quickly, "Try to contact the other Yellow Bears on the field; tell them to cooperate with us later. It’s a pity Ding Can and his team aren’t here..." Ling Yu’s eyes sparkled. "Ding Can and his team made a significant discovery deep in the foggy area. They’re currently competing with the Sun Guard of the Distant Star Federation and the Egersis of Havel and can’t break away. If even one of them could have returned, we wouldn’t be in such a passive position..."

"Who could have thought the Phoenix Feather would appear in such an outlying area..."

"Indeed, who could have guessed."

As Ling Yu and his teammates were discussing, the stalemate on the battlefield was suddenly shattered by two white energy beams, each as thick as a water bucket. These two beams, almost solidified, instantly tore across the intervening space, one from the left and one from the right, shooting towards Ling Yu and Matiss respectively.

"Engage!" Ling Yu shouted, raising his hands. A brilliant radiance erupted in front of him, forcefully blocking the energy beam.

From the other side, Matiss’s wild laughter echoed. Immediately, a dazzling saber light flared, cleaving the energy beam. Almost simultaneously with the azure-green light stream from the Earth Armament, it shot towards the distant Phoenix Feather.

Ling Yu pushed off with his foot and lunged forward abruptly. In less than half a breath, the three figures—Ling Yu, Matiss, and the Earth Armament wielder—were entangled. None were willing to let the others be the first to approach the Phoenix Feather, leading to a chaotic melee as they mutually restricted each other.

"Go!" Yin Muqing and the slightly dark-skinned young man seized the opportunity and immediately rushed forward. Their goal was to eliminate the remaining competitors, then grab the Phoenix Feather and escape at the first chance. Both were mid-Tier 3 Supernovas, significantly stronger than most others on the field, who were merely Tier 2 or early-Tier 3. In the span of a breath, they surpassed everyone, becoming the closest to the Phoenix Feather’s location.

As Yin Muqing raced forward at full speed, she saw Lu Yuan. A Hoopoe, with the Phoenix Feather in its beak, was perched on his shoulder. He remained stationary amidst the unfolding battle, motionless like a wooden statue. Idiot! Doesn’t he even know how to run or hide? she cursed inwardly.

BOOM! BOOM—

There were still several members of the Yellow Bear Organization on the field. Following Yin Muqing’s earlier communication, they all erupted with their full power, helping her and her partner block members from other organizations attempting to snatch the Phoenix Feather.

Everything seemed to be proceeding extraordinarily smoothly. Just one more second... No! Half a second! In half a second, she and her partner would reach the target, grab the Phoenix Feather, and leave this place!

However, just at that moment...

BUZZ! BUZZ! BUZZ—

A deep yellow light descended from above. The nearly blurred figures of Yin Muqing and the dark-skinned young man plunged into this deep yellow curtain of light, their movements suddenly becoming incredibly slow. It was as if they were trapped in a swamp filled with viscous glue, their bodies tightly bound, each movement requiring ten or even a hundred times more effort than before.

"A compound gravity field?!" Yin Muqing and her companion struggled to look up. They saw the blond man from the Distant Star Federation, wielder of the Earth Armament, smiling as he looked down at them. This freakish technique, unique to the Earth Armament Mecha, directly affected everyone in the battle. Everyone’s expression turned grim, their movements becoming exceedingly laborious, as if a movie had switched to super slow-motion.

The only one unaffected was the blond man wielding the Earth Armament. Blue flames, like the breath of an angry dragon, spewed from his cyan armor as he roared forward.

Ling Yu, who had pushed the power of his Star Caves to the limit, caught up from behind at this moment. Seven dazzling points of light spun rapidly around him, making him as brilliant as a meteor, yet his expression was quite grim. No matter how desperately he tried to accelerate, he remained a significant distance behind the Earth Armament.

Just then, a saber light, accompanied by a human silhouette, abruptly shot out from the deep yellow compound gravity field. Extreme Heat Saber Matiss was enveloped in dense starlight, and an invisible power flowed from the enormous black saber in his hand. He directly broke through the heavy obstruction; the powerful compound gravity field, capable of slowing down Tier 3 experts, seemed to have no effect on him. The inexplicable power on Matiss’s saber nullified the terrifying gravitational force, allowing him to advance with unstoppable momentum, like a hot knife through butter.

"Power of the Life Star Chart!" Yin Muqing recognized the power contained in Matiss’s saber and gritted her teeth slightly. This was a potent ability unique to the top-tier Supernovas. Even a trace of the Power of the Life Star Chart could make a Supernova vastly stronger than their peers at the same level!

The previously advantageous situation reversed in less than the blink of an eye. The cyan stream of light from the Earth Armament and the comet-like Matiss pounced towards the same location from above and below, almost simultaneously.

That location.

It was precisely where the young Yellow Bear, Lu Yuan, stood with a calm face, seemingly completely "stunned."

Yin Muqing watched helplessly as Lu Yuan’s figure was rapidly engulfed by the light emanating from the Earth Armament and Matiss. She was both anxious and furious. If she too wasn’t practically immobilized, she would have rushed over and berated him. He’s really like a block of wood, not moving at all? Doesn’t he know to dodge or run... What a useless teammate, hopelessly stupid!

Just as Yin Muqing was furiously cursing in her heart...

BOOM!

A violent roar erupted from her line of sight, and then... the figures of the Distant Star Federation’s Earth Armament, Matiss, and Lu Yuan were all consumed by a blinding, tumultuous light.
