Yin Yue gently closed her eyes. Her silver-white hair moved without wind, and pure moonlight seeped out from her body in strands.
“Shuo Ling, connect to the ship core authority.”
“Mm!”
Shuo Ling closed her eyes in response, and the Star Orbit Crystal Core on her chest lit up with dazzling silver-blue light.
The long-dormant core of the Divine Star Chaser gradually awakened. Dense star river patterns burst from the crystal core and spread along her petite body, instantly wrapping her and Yin Yue completely.
One moon, one star, plus the colorful bond between Yin Yue and Luo Ning—three powers merged, intertwined, and converged perfectly.
Shuo Ling’s body once again turned into a blurred light form. The layered star orbit light belts from her gradually wrapped around Yin Yue’s body.
WHOOSH!
An invisible energy resonance echoed through the secret realm.
The humming tremor continued to spread. The star orbit light belts enveloping the two slowly contracted and solidified.
Shuo Ling’s transformed light followed the patterns and poured entirely into Yin Yue’s body.
The moonlight and star brilliance flowing around Yin Yue interwove and fused, outlining a sharp, streamlined shipgirl armor contour. Cold white metal light armor spread and conformed to her form.
Several angular laser cannons emerged from behind her, on her shoulders, and on both sides of her waist and hips. They floated in mid-air at staggered positions, their muzzles glowing with a cold pale blue light, as if fully charged and ready to fire.
An energy moon blade, pure white with moonlight patterns flowing along its edge, hung quietly before her. The slender blade remained condensed yet unfocused, its flowing halo like liquid moonlight.
Yin Yue slowly opened her eyes. Star orbit light surged deep within her amber pupils.
Yin Yue slowly raised her hand and took the energy moon blade. The blade seemed to tremble, emitting a clear, resonant hum.
She gently rotated her wrist. The pure white moon blade traced a graceful yet sharp silver arc in the air, and the flowing moonlight spread into shallow ripples.
In an instant, the cold aura of the shipgirl armor spread out. The pressure of an Overlord surged from within her like heavy moonlight.
“Shipgirl Armor, Star Moon!”
As Yin Yue spoke, her clear, cold voice softly blended with a touch of sweet, soft tones—clearly the overlapping voices of Yin Yue and Shuo Ling.
Luo Ning, standing by, was completely stunned.
“So… so cool! Absolutely awesome!”
‘This is the beast taming she wanted to see!’
Yin Yue turned her head slightly and saw her master’s dumbfounded expression. The corner of her mouth lifted into a faint smile.
One of the mobile cannon turrets beside her floated down in front of Luo Ning, as if inviting her to sit on it.
“Master, this form’s power boost can only last at most ten minutes…”
“Everything from here on is your responsibility.”
The two overlapping voices sounded again.
Luo Ning suppressed her excitement and took a deep breath. She immediately understood Yin Yue’s meaning. She stepped onto the turret with her white silk-stockinged feet.
The floating turret vibrated slightly, automatically adjusted its tilt angle, and steadily supported Luo Ning’s form.
She understood Yin Yue’s intention. Since Yin Yue said it could only last ten minutes, she would need to complete the negotiation with the other party within that time.
“Alright, leave the rest to me.”
As Luo Ning sat down, the fluffy silver-white wolf ears on Yin Yue’s head gently flicked. The turrets floating around her slowly lit up with a soft moon glow.
The next moment, moonlight flickered.
They vanished from the lonely secret realm.
Outside, above the desolate cluster of unfinished buildings.
“Achoo!”
Even though the Wind Barrier of Yun Bai Feng Jing had covered him, Li Changqing still sneezed several times.
Just as Li Changqing couldn’t hold it and wanted to pull out his phone to contact his subordinate to bring equipment to search for a hidden secret realm here…
“ROAR!”
The high-flying Yun Bai Feng Jing, resting with its eyes closed, seemed to detect a disturbance in the airflow over the unfinished building area below.
But the pressure emanating…
The whale’s eyes narrowed. The entire giant whale tensed and stood on guard.
“Hm? Finally coming out?”
Li Changqing slowly stood up and straightened his wet suit and soaked hair. A long-awaited expression appeared on his face.
His earlier speculation was most likely correct!
Let him see what surprises they would bring him next.
Moonlight ripples spread layer by layer. Space slowly smoothed out, and two graceful silhouettes, carrying flying clear light, finally appeared on the roof of the tallest unfinished building.
But when the Silver Moon Wolf Girl reappeared, she was already in a completely transformed state.
Li Changqing’s eyes widened instinctively.
“Holy crap! There’s even a mecha armor? What kind of black technology is this?!”
The Silver Moon Wolf Girl’s slender figure was now clad in exquisitely intricate cold-white star-patterned shipgirl light armor.
A slender energy moon blade was firmly gripped in her hand. The moonlight patterns flowing along the pure white blade grew even more dazzling.
Add to that the several black-tech floating turrets around her, and the whole image was highly oppressive.
As for Luo Ning, she sat on an extra floating turret, her white silk-stockinged calves dangling gently on both sides of the cannon muzzle, floating steadily beside Yin Yue.
Although she was about to negotiate with the whale uncle, Luo Ning’s heart was still more stunned by the shipgirl armor form of Yin Yue and Shuo Ling.
Don’t ask—her own beast was this cool, and as the Beast Tamer, she was beaming with pride.
High above, the massive body of Yun Bai Feng Jing sank slightly. The freely flowing clouds in the sky gradually stalled.
Its huge whale eyes fixed tightly on Yin Yue on the rooftop. The wind power flowing around it slowly gathered, and the Overlord aura from its massive body gradually spread.
But when the Overlord aura of Yun Bai Feng Jing touched the mixed star-moon aura on Yin Yue, it unexpectedly couldn’t suppress it!
That meant…
“That’s an Overlord aura too! She’s actually advanced to Overlord level!”
Li Changqing murmured, his tone full of disbelief.
Through the Beast Taming Contract Space, he could sense that Yin Yue’s aura had reached the Low Dominator realm.
Keep in mind, this was the contracted beast of an Apprentice Beast Tamer…
And there was no backlash on her side. She was even sitting on that turret, dangling her white-stockinged feet…
No sign of mental strain at all!
Had he ever seen an Apprentice Beast Tamer bring an Overlord-level contracted beast onto the field?
Overlord-level beasts were the hallmark of Legendary Beast Tamers!
If a Beast Tamer below Legendary contracted an Overlord-level creature, normally their spirit would collapse from the backlash and they would die the next second!
Seeing Luo Ning’s special case, Li Changqing now felt like he was seeing something new—a real eye-opener!
On top of that, the Silver Moon Wolf was a King race creature. How had she broken through the limit of her racial bloodline?
Could it be that this form—turning into a humanoid beast-eared girl or even a mecha-armed form—was a special type of evolution?
A leap in life form?!
Wind howled around the rooftop, blowing debris from the broken buildings with a rustling sound, but it couldn’t dispel the tense confrontation.
“Hmph! Surprise, surprise! Hey there, Whale Uncle, we’re back!”
Luo Ning crossed her arms, lifted her chin, and curled her nose. Her clear voice carried a tone of pure joy and pride.
“Good heavens… You really gave me a huge surprise.”
Li Changqing slowly exhaled a mouthful of stale air. He raised his hand and rubbed his brow.
“And what’s up with that ‘Whale Uncle’ nickname? I’m only 28 this year. Stop calling me uncle!”
Li Changqing complained helplessly.
“Okay, Whale Uncle!”
“… Li Changqing.”
“So, you deliberately showed off this form—surely not just to come up here and flex on me?”
Faced with Li Changqing’s question, Luo Ning’s expression froze.
Had he… really seen through her hidden thoughts?
Noticing Luo Ning’s micro-expression, Li Changqing lost it completely. She really had just come to show off to him!?
