<h4>Chapter 2214 Gctic Lobster Beast Soul</h4>


    “These are the systems of chaos, and anything can happen here. Ready yourselves for death,” Mister White said when Han Sen returned to the ship.


    No one had expected to encounter the Gctic Shrimp just as they were leaving that system, and the Ice Blue Knights had taken a lot of casualties. The majority of them had made it through, though. All in all, the battle had gone well.


    The knights were also just happy that they had not woken up the ck Hole Spider. If they had, their entire army would have surely perished, not just the few they had lost to the shrimp.


    The bodies of the dead knights couldn’t be retrieved, since no one could return to the territory of the Gctic Shrimp and recover the deceased. Even if they could have gone back, the perished would have been eaten by the creatures by now.


    They had lost much in that fight. They couldn’t bring back the xenogeneic genes or the bodies of those they had in; there hadn’t been time to collect anything. And after leaving, they couldn’t quite think about returning.


    The ships had been extensively damaged. Fortunately, the ships were designed to repel the assault of xenogeneics. The armor of the hull was like the crust of the earth. Although the ships were badly battered, their cores weren’t harmed. As a result, they could still fly.


    As he rested, Han Sen looked over the Gctic Shrimp and Gctic Lobster beast souls he had retrieved.


    Han Sen had earned many Gctic Shrimp beast souls, including sixteen of Marquise rank and one that was Duke. That was far more than he had expected. He had forgotten how many shrimp he had actually killed over the course of the battle.


    Gctic Shrimp beast soul: sword


    Han Sen summoned the Gctic Shrimp sword beast soul. Then, a two-meter-long greatsword appeared in Han Sen’s hands. It wasn’t as heavy as a normal greatsword, though.


    The Gctic Shrimp greatsword was like the spike at the end of a Gctic Shrimp. It was a transparent blue color, and it looked like a saw, but with a sharp and pointy tip. It glowed blue. When Han Sen swung the de, it unleashed an explosion of blue light.


    Han Sen gave one of the Gctic Shrimp beast souls to each of hispanions. A Marquise ss weapon wasn’t too shabby, after all. As for the Duke one, he gave that to Ji Qing.


    Ji Qing’s super god body was called Sword Soul. She was reasonably skilled with a sword, and so Han Sen gave it to her for Ji Yanran’s sake.


    The most important thing he had managed to get, though, was the Gctic Lobster beast soul. Han Sen turned his focus to that.


    King ss Gctic Lobster beast soul: armor


    “King ss armor?” Han Sen gave a little whoop. He needed an armor of such strength.


    The Demon Bug King Bai Sema had a high level of defense, but Han Sen couldn’t attack while the shield was up. A beast soul armor was different. It was a basic item that everyone needed.


    “It is a shame I only have one. If I had managed to kill a few more, everyone would have this lobster armor. We’d be much safer in the systems of chaos, that’s for sure,” Han Sen thought to himself.


    Han Sen summoned the Gctic Lobster armor, and a translucent blue crystal wrapped around him. Inside that blue crystal glowed a shiny green light. Han Sen moved, and when he did, it looked like the stars of an entire gxy were moving with him.


    “What a beautiful armor. Is that the Gctic Lobster’s beast soul?” Ji Qing looked at Han Sen’s armor enviously.


    That armor really was beautiful. It shone like a blue diamond, and so it would definitely attract the gaze of any woman who walked by.


    Han Sen wasn’t a fan of wearing something so mboyant, however. If he could choose its look, he would have preferred something dull and grey. He did like to keep a low-profile, after all.


    Wearing armor like that made Han Sen look like a firefly in the dark. It was so very shiny, and all kinds of enemies would be attracted to him.


    Even so, it was better than nothing. Han Sen then gave Han Yan his gold Demon Bug King beast soul. Han Yan could now explore alone, without needing to keep Little Angel next to her.


    Han Sen had a set of lobster armor now, so the Demon Bug Bai Sema wasn’t as important to him anymore. If he did require it, he could just find Little Angel and the others.


    After seeing the Gctic Shrimp in action, Han Sen had a much better understanding of the breadth and danger of the systems of chaos a whole lot more. Even with his three Demon Bug King Bai Semas, his safety wasn’t certain.


    “Now I understand how a woman like Yisha died out here.” Thinking of Yisha, Han Sen had to end his thought with an audible sigh.


    Ice Blue Knight King had someone deliver some Gctic Shrimp xenogeneic genes and meat as a reward for Han Sen’s participation and performance.


    The person who delivered the items was that same fiery Ice Blue Knight from before.


    “Brother, my name is Exploding Bear. I am known for my appearance as a raging bear. I will look after you from now on. If you need anything from the Ice Blue Knights, all you must do is call my name.” Exploding Bear pounded his chest before Han Sen.


    “Yes, I will be sure to do that, and I will make hearty use of your name,” Han Sen said with a smile. It was relieving to have an ally in the Ice Blue Knights.


    “Cool. If you have time,e and visit me on the sixth team.” Exploding Bearughed, and then patted Han Sen on the shoulder. He left with the other knights that had carried in Han Sen’s reward.


    Han Sen used the Gctic Shrimp’s meat for a shrimp hotpot. He sliced up the translucent shrimp meat and dipped it in some sauce. When he put one in his mouth, the sweetness of the juices was exquisite. He felt as if he was going to melt with the shrimp itself.


    The journey that followed wasn’t as dangerous or as eventful as Han Sen thought it might be. They traveled for a whole week, and they didn’t have to fight off a single xenogeneic in that time.


    There were groups of xenogeneics that saw the ships, but they all fled without causing trouble.


    There was nothing to do, and at one point, Han Sen joined Exploding Bear for a drink. Exploding Bear was captain of the sixth team. His subordinate knights were nice to Han Sen, even though he was just a Marquise.


    The kindness wasrgely earned by Han Sen’s performance on the day before. Powerful elites would receive a lot of respect regardless of their rank or race.


    “Don’t worry, Brother. The systems of chaos are not as scary as you might fear. We have traveled this route many times, and it has always remained clear. The ck Hole Spider and the Gctic Shrimp were wild flukes. Big Bro Bear knows this way well, and I can tell you, nothing will happen. Rx and enjoy the drink.” Exploding Bear then proceeded to drain three entire kegs. He gripped Han Sen’s shoulder and nudged another keg toward him.


    “Brother Bear, it is not that I don’t want to drink, it’s that I cannot drink. My belly is too small.” Han Sen looked at his bloated belly.


    Exploding Bear loved to eat, and while Han Sen cast Consume to try to keep up, he still couldn’t eat much. He couldn’t fathom how big the bear’s belly must have been.


    Exploding Bearughed and started to say something when an rm sounded and cut him off. Everyone froze.


    “Battle rm!” Exploding Bear shouted, with his eyes wide open.


    “It looks like Exploding Bear’s words are unreliable.” Han Sen got up and went to the control room. He knew Mister White would bring hispanions there.
