I Pick Up Talents on the Interstellar Battlefield - Chapter 752 - 534: Revenge and the Three-Dimensional City Network (2)

“Your Highness!”

“Your Highness, are you alright?”

Unol raised his hand and calmly said, “My injuries have healed.”

The Eternal Ice Silkworm Tribe naturally possesses the world’s top-notch self-healing abilities, especially when on the brink of death, they can cocoon themselves to be reborn, elevating their strength even further.

However, this time, whether intentionally or unintentionally, Qin Tian’s injuries were severe but not life-threatening, so the cocoon could only heal his wounds without a strength breakthrough.

Hearing these words, the surrounding beastmen sighed in relief; since His Highness was safe, they narrowly avoided a disaster. Otherwise, according to the rules of the Eternal Ice Silkworm Tribe, these guards would only have the option of dying to atone for their failure.

In the crowd, a wolf-headed beastman had a flash of intense indignation in his eyes. He stepped forward, gritting his teeth, and said, “Your Highness, that Qin Tian from the humans is too presumptuous. Should we return to the embassy and request Lord Moses to pressure the Human Empire to severely punish him?”

Just as his words fell, Unol suddenly turned his head towards the wolf-man, his gaze terrifyingly cold.

In the embassy were other royal beastmen and core dignitaries besides him.

If they knew he, a direct lineage of the Eternal Ice Silkworm Tribe, was severely injured by a non-Holy Blood human of the same tier, this news would reach the Beastman Empire within half a day.

By then, he would not only become a laughingstock within his family but also a disgrace in the entire circle of beastman royalty!

Under that icy gaze, the wolf-headed beastman’s body suddenly tensed, hurriedly bowing his head, barely daring to breathe.

Unol gave a cold snort, withdrawing his gaze, and looked in the direction of Ice Extreme Pass, a deep-seated resentment swirling in his eyes.

The intense pain from being heavily wounded by Qin Tian’s strike, the humiliation of being knocked to the ground like a dog, was etched into his soul like a brand, and the burning sensation from the sword mark on his chest seemed to remain.

Since birth, he had been the favored son of heaven, enjoying riches and glory, always standing above others, never having suffered such insult.

Qin Tian

Inzaghi Luoho

These two individuals have already been placed on his must-kill list.

But he was not consumed by hatred.

Inzaghi Luoho was from the human Holy Blood direct lineage, and Mingwang Planet was within his sphere of influence. Clashing with him here would give the other party plenty of means, both overt and covert, to take him down or even make him disappear without a trace.

Therefore, even though the hatred was hard to suppress, he could only temporarily endure it and not confront Inzaghi Luoho directly.

But Qin Tian, he would absolutely not let off!

Unol withdrew his gaze and looked at the wolf-headed beastman from earlier, coldly ordering, “Go, find the nearby Snow Beast nests as quickly as possible.”

“Yes, Your Highness!”

The wolf-headed beastman quickly responded, not daring to delay in the slightest.

He slightly lowered his head, sniffing intently with his nose.

With the wolf-men tribe’s keen sense of smell, they could precisely pick up special scents even amidst blizzards.

Quickly, determination flashed in his eyes as he raised his hand to point in a direction, “Your Highness, there’s the scent of Snow Beasts over there!”

“Lead the way!”

“Yes!”

The wolf-headed beastman raced into the wind and snow, Unol’s wings fluttering slightly behind him, leading other beastmen in pursuit, weaving across the vast snowfields, leaving a trail of deep and shallow footprints.

Before long, a Snow Beast nest hidden within a glacial canyon appeared before them.

Within the canyon, thousands of Snow Beasts were entrenched, with a variety of species

There were Frostmen, towering several meters tall and formed from snow and ice, Ice Lizards with their bodies shielded by thick Ice Armor, Snow Lions with manes as fluffy as white snow, and flocks of Snow Bats hung upside down on ice cliffs, emitting sharp screeches.

Yet, these diverse Snow Beasts coexisted in an oddly harmonious manner.

Upon seeing Unol’s group intruding, the Snow Beasts were instantly triggered, letting out roars and launching attacks against them.

The Frostmen hurled snowballs, Ice Lizards shot ice spikes, Snow Lions pounced and bit, and the Snow Bats swarmed in dense formations, creating a chaotic and terrifying scene.

Unol remained calm, moving his fingertips as countless ice-blue silken threads burst forth.

Some of the silk wove into a net, effectively blocking the Snow Beasts’ assault; others, like agile venomous snakes, precisely pierced into every Snow Beast’s body.

Then, the ice crystal wings on his back fluttered vigorously, scattering countless tiny particles akin to pollen, silently drifting toward every Snow Beast.

This was one of the Eternal Ice Silkworm Tribe’s innate magical powers—Mind-Numbing Ice Powder.

Once it infiltrated a creature’s body, it could paralyze its will, control its mind, and turn it into an utterly obedient puppet.

For ice and snow-based creatures, its effect was even doubled.

The instant the powder entered, the raging Snow Beasts suddenly stalled, the fierce light in their eyes quickly fading, replaced by bewilderment. Then they slowly lowered their heads, their limbs going soft as they crouched submissively on the ground, letting out soft whimpers.

“Go, attack all nearby human settlements, and destroy everything that can be damaged.”

Unol coldly issued the order.

The Snow Beasts prostrated on the ground let out a low roar in unison. In the next second, they stood up and rushed out of the canyon, relying on their acute sense of the snow environment to track human scents and life signals.

Watching the Snow Beasts’ figures recede into the distance, Unol said coldly, “Qin Tian, this is only the beginning. I will turn your territory into ruins.”

“Next one.”

He turned to the wolf-headed beastman beside him.

The wolf-headed beastman dared not be slow, lowering his head again to meticulously sniff the scents amidst the wind and snow, soon locking onto a new direction.

“Your Highness, fifty miles northeast, there’s another even larger Snow Beast gathering place!”

“Lead the way!”

“Yes!”

The wolf-man led the way again, with Unol and the other beastmen racing towards the new target.

…

In the study of the Ice Extreme Pass’s manor, Qin Tian stood before the desk, which was covered with layers of ice-blue silken threads.

These were all ice silken threads scattered on the ground after the battle with Unol.

At the start of the battle, all the silk released by Unol was cut by his Black Frost Blade, covering the ground everywhere.

After the battle, Unol fled severely wounded, unable to care for himself, naturally having no mind to return and clean up, leaving these treasures conveniently for Qin Tian.

Though the Black Frost Blade sliced through these threads effortlessly like cutting paper, in reality, the tensile strength of this ice silk was terrifyingly high. Qin Tian picked up a strand between his fingers, tugging it lightly; the silk was taut as a bowstring, showing no signs of breaking.

If not for evolving the Black Frost into a Lifebound Divine Weapon, he might not have been able to cut the silk.

The quantity of silk was considerable. According to Qin Tian’s plan, if he could invite a top artifact refining master to design and melt it down, crafting it into lightweight and durable soft armor, he could make at least dozens of sets.

Further nurturing and strengthening with [Soldier Immortal]’s power, the defense strength of this ice silk soft armor would be difficult to breach, even with a full-force attack from a Tier Seven Holy Blood.

Initially, he wanted to ask Taoist Duobao of the Mythical Society to help, but then he thought, the Mythical Society only held gatherings once every three months. Sending the silk there and having Taoist Duobao craft and send it back would take at least half a year, far too long.

Given his current location on Mingwang Planet, close to the Empire’s core Royal Star where talents abound, there’s no need to seek Taoist Duobao specifically for assistance.

“In hindsight, I shouldn’t have ended the battle so quickly.”

Qin Tian picked up a strand of silk, rubbing the cool and smooth texture between his fingers, with a hint of regret in his voice.

If he could do it over again, he would outlast Unoldo in hundreds of rounds, not rushing to deliver a fatal strike, but playing rhythmically, not pushing too hard, until the ice silkworm exhausted its strength, unable to spit another line of silk before stopping.

Such a good “material reserve” opportunity was squandered by him, truly a pity.

Buzz~

Just then, his smart bracelet suddenly vibrated, delivering a message.

Qin Tian opened it and immediately showed a knowing smile.

“I knew you wouldn’t let it go quietly.”

Qin Tian smiled faintly, “Just right, this allows me to test the power of my constructed three-dimensional city network in real combat.”
