Drifting Sand world.
The black market.
The flight center.
Gu Qing Shan stood outside of the crowd, silently observing the situation.
Everything was in chaos.
Because they couldn't escape from this world and were caught up in the explosion of the ship, the furious Professionists all rushed to the flight center, demanding a refund for their travel expenses.
But the number of black market guards that came to maintain order was limited, not even the captain and vice-captain of the black market showed up.
I heard they went on a mission.
A few powerful Professionists slowly found out that the owner of the black market, Greyhan, wasn't in this world either.
As if the news had grown wings, it silently spread throughout the entire black market.
A few people with even more ulterior motives started to take this chance to plan their own desires.
The first conflict occurred at the auction house.
The billowing smoke and soaring flames could be seen clearly even from this far away in the flight center.
Almost as if this was a signal, the flight center fell into chaos.
Quite a few people rushed out, wanting to steal the flying vehicles.
The guards stopped trying to persuade them and started to fight the Professionists head-on.
That was how the entire city fell into chaos.
Powerful auras began to rise from every corner of the black market.
Various forces clashed and resisted each other in the sky above the city, causing this peaceful floating city to occasionally tremble.
Gu Qing Shan watched all of this from afar.
He took a step back, then another, then turned around and walked away.
The situation was too chaotic, so he didn't want to step into it.
He went to a restaurant at the very edge of the flight center and sat down at a table in the open.
"Boss — –" Gu Qing Shan called out.
As he looked around, he found that the entire restaurant was empty.
The waiters and waitresses were all very knowledgeable, so they've already escaped from the powder keg that was the flight center.
Gu Qing Shan had no choice but to stand up, go behind the counter, and bring out a freshly prepared meal.
He took a bite.
Hm …
This restaurant was located in the most secluded part of the flight center, so there's a reason for that.
Spitting out the food in his mouth, Gu Qing Shan decided not to go to the kitchen.
For a chef to be able to make food of this style, it's impossible to expect his other dishes to surprise people with his taste.
Gu Qing Shan suddenly understood Bali and Meow a bit.
Fortunately, the two of them were safe now.
Gu Qing Shan walked back to the outdoor dining table and began to ponder.
In the sky, the red flesh wall was wriggling incessantly, looking extremely disgusting.
But strangely, after the world was eaten by the Desolate Ancient World Eater Demon Bug, the earthquakes gradually subsided.
However, no one could leave this world.
What were the gods doing?
Bang –
Gu Qing Shan immediately turned to look.
In an extremely distant desert, a giant green hand the size of the floating city reached out of the quicksand and raised high.
It was different from the emerald green he had seen before. This green was indescribably disgusting.
The giant green hand reached upwards as if it was trying to grab something.
Unfortunately, it was still quite a distance away from the Desolate Ancient World Eater Demon Bug, unable to reach the red meat wall.
The giant green hand unwillingly stopped, but it soon began to sway again.
It was still trying to catch something.
Whose hand was this?
If one of its arms was already so huge, how majestic would its body be?!
As Gu Qing Shan was thinking, she suddenly heard a series of loud vibrations.
Boom boom boom boom boom!
Endless noises filled the entire world.
Gu Qing Shan slowly stood up from his chair, stood at the edge of the floating city, and looked towards the vast desert.
Behind him, the noise of battle and commotion in the black market also slowly faded.
The entire black market went silent.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked towards the desert.
Hands.
Giant hands.
Giant green hands that were as large as the floating city stretched out one after another, densely occupying the entire desert.
No — –
They took over the entire Drifting Sand world!
These giant green hands couldn't even reach the flesh wall in the sky.
In fact, they were still a bit away from reaching the floating city.
But they were still unwilling to give up, trying their best to reach the void of space, trying to grab anything they could.
"Look!" someone loudly called out.
Below the floating city.
The small town on the outskirts had been caught by a giant green hand and was slowly being dragged into the desert.
Many figures soared into the sky from the small town, trying to escape this disaster.
But the giant grey hands around them were madly trying to grab them.
— — – like swatting away a bunch of flies.
Blood splattered everywhere in the air.
The giant green hand seemed to have some sort of unique power, as every single person who tried to escape was sent flying back and stuck to the giant hand.
It wasn't just the fleeing people, even the birds high up in the sky cried out in pain as they fell to the ground.
The black mass of people were caught by the giant hand and crushed into a pile of flesh and blood.
One hand.
Two hands.
Three, four, five …
The giant hands swarmed over and captured all of the people.
No one was able to escape.
Everyone in the town was dead.
The giant hands dragged handfuls after handfuls of flesh and blood into the desert.
The ground began to tremble. The quicksand formed circular ripples that looked like an abyssal whirlpool.
This slight trembling didn't seem like an earthquake, but more like something was chewing and devouring.
In the sky, everyone held their breaths and stared blankly at this.
All of a sudden, a high-decibel female voice shouted: "It's here!"
Everyone looked up.
A single arm had finally surpassed all the giant green hands, reaching even higher and grabbing towards the floating city.
The entire floating city was in chaos.
Everyone attacked the giant green hand with all their might.
Every single one of them — — every single one of them who could attack the giant green hand had used all their strength.
The giant green hand reached higher and higher, but didn't budge at all despite the attacks.
"It can't move!"
"It's not damaged at all!"
"We can't deal with it!"
Amidst everyone's desperate screams, the giant green hand streaked across the sky, grabbing towards the floating city with unstoppable force.
Bam!
With a small sound, the meticulously constructed defensive formation around the floating city popped like a bubble as it was lightly touched by the giant green hand.
The giant green hand continued to approach.
But when it got the closest to the floating city, it streaked across the sky!
Although this giant green hand was taller than all the other arms, it was still a bit away from reaching the floating city!
Just a bit more!
The giant green hand that was covered in pus streaked across the bottom of the floating city, bringing with it a foul stench.
The entire floating city shuddered.
"Go higher!!!!!"
Suddenly, someone cried and screamed.
Everyone regained their composure.
Everyone used all their strength to shout loudly.
"Go higher!"
"Go higher!"
"Go higher!"
"Go higher!"
All the commotion stopped.
Everyone turned their gaze towards the center of the black market — — the floating city's control center.
This was the place where the floating city's controls were located.
A few staff members of the black market rushed in and began to operate the sophisticated instruments.
Quite a few Professionists went around to protect the floating city's control center.
This was only an instinctive reaction.
In reality, no matter how stupid they were, they wouldn't attack the floating city's control center at this point in time.
Time ticked by.
Controlling the entire city to fly wasn't a simple matter.
Everyone understood this, so they could only helplessly wait.
At this point, the giant green hand came again!
The giant green hand seemed to have reached a bit higher.
It used all of its strength to reach its five fingers up high, wanting to touch the bottom of the floating city.
The Professionists once again attacked with everything they had.
Before, some were still holding back, but at this point, no one dared to think that they were lucky anymore.
All sorts of spells struck the giant green hand, but it didn't budge at all.
Under everyone's despairing gazes, the giant green hand's fingers finally reached the bottom of the floating city.
One finger lightly touched it.
Two fingers touched it.
A third finger …
The giant green hand was about to catch the floating city.
Suddenly!
The entire floating city let out a loud rumbling sound.
Oong — — -
The floating city was activated.
It could now ascend or descend.
The silent and despairing crowd suddenly became restless.
Everyone roared in frenzy.
"Hurry!"
"Hurry!"
"Do it!"
"Damn it, rise for me!"
"Ascend!!!"
Boom — — — —
Streams of white air rushed out from the bottom of the floating city.
The floating city began to ascend.
Slowly but surely, it escaped the giant green hand's touch and flew higher.
The entire city went silent.
Suddenly.
