Starry Sky Railway: Twin Origins

Chapter 62 Heading to Everwinter Ridge

Just as Xing was about to hit the fake Cocolia, it immediately stopped attacking Lin Qiong.

The surrounding cold air continued to gather in its right hand, and in an instant, a long spear made of solid ice appeared in the fake Cocolia's hand.

The spear was crystal clear and exuded a chilling aura, as if freezing everything around it.

Then, it swung its spear and met the falling star.

The baseball bat and the rifle collided with a loud "ping".

The two forces collided violently, sending out visible shockwaves in all directions.

Just as the two were locked in a stalemate, several whooshing sounds suddenly came from the air.

"Whoosh whoosh—"

Suddenly, several dazzling ice arrows, made entirely of six-phase ice, shot out from the crowd, flying swiftly towards the fake Cocolia like streaks of light in the sky.

Seeing this, the fake Cocolia exerted its strength and pushed the star, who was in mid-air, away.

Immediately afterwards, the fake Cocolia waved its hand, and the cold air in the air quickly condensed into an indestructible shield in its hand.

The six-phase ice arrows were deflected the moment they touched the shield, leaving only a few inconspicuous tiny marks on its surface.

"Huh?" March 7th let out a soft exclamation. "You managed to block that?"

She originally planned to launch a sneak attack while the fake Cocolia was locked in a stalemate with Xing, but she didn't expect it to react so quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the sneak attack on March 7th was easily thwarted.

Just then, Dan Heng suddenly swept past March 7 and appeared in front of the shield in a flash.

He held his breath, his sword, the Strike Cloud, poised to strike, his eyes sharp as a hawk eyeing its prey.

In front of the shield, Danheng pulled the Strike Cloud to his waist with one hand, extending it backward as far as possible.

"Bang bang bang".

Dan Heng unleashed his full power with the Cloud Cavalry Spear Technique, stabbing the ice shield three times at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

Each of the three thrusts was incredibly precise, striking the center of the shield.

Under Danheng's continuous barrage of blows, a tiny crack appeared on the surface of the shield.

Then, the crack began to spread rapidly, filling the entire surface of the shield like a spider web.

The fake Cocolia clearly sensed something was wrong, and a hint of panic flashed in her cold eyes.

After all, it wasn't the real Cocolia. It was merely an afterimage driven by instinct, devoid of any combat skills.

"break!"

Looking at the cracked shield, Dan Heng let out a low shout and slammed the Cloud Strike in his hand out once again.

With a "crack," the shield made of solid ice shattered.

It split into countless tiny ice cubes, which scattered on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Dan Heng's momentum in his spear remained undiminished, continuing forward, the tip of the spear aimed directly at the throat of the fake Cocolia.

Clearly, his attack was aimed at ending the battle completely.

Seeing this, the fake Cocolia opened his left hand and immediately conjured a second ice spear in his hand.

It quickly crossed the two spears in its hands, forming an X-shaped defensive stance.

As the Strike Clouds hurtled towards it with a howling wind, the two crossed icy spears resembled a spider web.

The attack from Dan Heng was firmly locked in place, preventing it from advancing even an inch further.

However, Dan Heng did not show any frustration when his attack was blocked. Instead, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, revealing a subtle smile.

"Checkmate."

As Dan Heng finished speaking, Lin Qiong suddenly leaped high up from behind Dan Heng.

The baseball bat in his hand was filled with an aura of destruction, bursting forth with a blinding blue light.

At the same time, a dazzling blue light also appeared behind the fake Cocolia.

Xing appeared behind it, the baseball bat in its hand also containing enormous energy, as if it could be released at any moment.

"Rules—" Lin Qiong and Xing spoke almost simultaneously, their voices echoing across the empty square.

Their glowing baseball bats, like stars falling from the sky, hurtled straight towards the fake Cocolia.

"—It's meant to be broken!"

Lin Qiong and Xing shouted the words in unison, as if to announce the victory of this battle.

All of this happened so suddenly that the fake Cocolia didn't even have time to react.

A rare look of fear appeared on its face, and it was unclear whether this fear originated from itself or from the mysterious source that created it.

Then, Lin Qiong and Xing's baseball bats slammed into the fake Cocolia, producing a deafening roar.

The two powerful forces converged, creating a strong wind pressure that caused everyone present to instinctively shield their faces from the oncoming gale.

Under this level of power, cracks began to appear on the fake Cocolia's body, which was made of light.

Its once bright body gradually dimmed, and its shape became increasingly blurry.

In the end, the fake Cocolia's body shattered like a piece of fragile glass.

Its body broke into countless fragments that scattered and danced in the air, shimmering with a faint light, until it completely dissipated.

"Phew... I never expected that Cocolia would leave behind an afterimage here to block us."

After the fake Cocolia disappeared, the strange feeling that had been lingering in March 7's heart vanished, and his tense nerves relaxed at that moment.

After Dan Heng retrieved Ji Yun, his gaze fell on the narrow staircase. "This also means that going up from here will be the end of this journey."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's get going!"

Lin Qiong said excitedly, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

After all, he will soon gain the power of his second destiny, which will greatly enhance both his offensive and defensive capabilities.

Perhaps he could even wield a baseball bat in one hand and a flamethrower in the other, combining offense and defense to truly become invincible under the command.

Lin Qiong's lips curled into a wide smile, harder to suppress than an AK, whenever he imagined himself in that heroic and invincible state.

"What are you laughing at?" Xing asked curiously, her eyes filled with doubt, when she saw Lin Qiong standing there grinning foolishly.

"What fun thing happened?"

The sudden sound pulled Lin Qiong back to reality from his fantasy.

"Ah? Oh, it's nothing." Realizing his lapse in composure, Lin Qiong quickly waved his hand. "I'm just a little excited that our first 'exploration' journey is actually to save the world."

Looking at Xing's curious eyes, Lin Qiong felt a little guilty, thinking that she would soon receive a "gift" personally delivered by Cocolia.

After all, this "gift" still looks quite painful.

"Oh, I see." Hearing Lin Qiong's explanation, Xingxin nodded in agreement. "I thought you had thought of something funny again."

Seeing Xing's unwavering belief, Lin Qiong felt even more guilty.

Yes, what bad intentions could a Star Core Spirit who is not even a year old have? She just wants to have some fun.

Just then, March 7's voice came from not far away, pulling Lin Qiong back to reality from his thoughts.

"Hey! Time to go, we've been waiting for you two."

Upon hearing this, the two looked in the direction of the sound and saw March 7th standing at the bottom of the stairs, hands on his hips, shouting loudly in their direction.

Behind her, Seele, Hiluva, and Danheng had already stepped onto the stairs and were slowly walking upwards.

"coming!"

Seeing this, Lin Qiong and Xing immediately quickened their pace and ran towards the stairs.
