Babata

Biodata

Background / History

Babata has accompanied Hu Yanbo since his humble beginnings, following him through repeated battles. This long association gives him an intimate understanding of his master’s finances, ambitions, and attachment to the few old companions who remain close to him 3 35.

During the escape from Demon Hand King, Babata initially celebrates reaching the Dark Universe, then panics when Hu Yanbo reveals that a soul attack has already struck him. He witnesses his master’s unexpected recovery and celebrates the seventh-level Void Tower breakthrough that neutralizes the attack. Hu Yanbo later conceals the Advance System from him, explaining his pursuit of Void True King’s guidance as a necessary improvement to his defenses 1 2 3.

Babata continues supporting Hu Yanbo’s travels and cultivation, redirecting the ship toward Green Algae Star and assisting with arrival at the Virtual Universe Company Headquarters. In Chaos City, he celebrates his master’s advancement to High-level Marquis, recruitment into the Universe Mercenary Alliance’s Core Layer, and eventual entry into King Rank 6 11 18 22 28.

When Marquis Glorious Light sends a farewell message, Babata recognizes it as evidence of mortal danger. After Hu Yanbo calms him, he connects a call to Void True King to help locate their missing companion. During the ensuing Nether God Secret Realm expedition, he monitors the ship’s detection equipment and later pilots through energy storms and spatial rifts while Hu Yanbo refines his techniques 34 35 37 50.

Original-Timeline Role

In the original Swallowed Star storyline recalled by Xiao Feng, Babata survives Hu Yanbo’s death, safeguards his inheritance, and waits on Earth for tens of thousands of years. He eventually meets Luo Feng, accepts him as a disciple on Hu Yanbo’s behalf, and helps him grow. Xiao Feng initially considers preserving this route as a means of securing his future resurrection, but his survival prevents the circumstances that would have left Babata as Yunmo Star’s sole remaining representative 1 7.

Appearance

Babata appears as a virtual figure and is shown perched on Hu Yanbo’s shoulder 1 3.

• Blood-red eyes, emphasized during his shocked reaction to the three-million-Hunyuan-Unit commission 3.
• Visibly expressive projection, which trembles when he learns that Hu Yanbo may be dying 1.

Personality

Babata is intensely loyal but willing to question decisions that appear dangerous or wasteful. He challenges Hu Yanbo’s expensive commission because the money had been reserved for training disciples; once his master explains his decision, Babata pledges wholehearted support 3.

He takes exuberant pride in Hu Yanbo’s achievements and places considerable value on prestige. Joining the Mercenary Alliance’s Core Layer makes him eager to see formerly condescending Immortals treat his master with respect. He also objects when Hu Yanbo declines an alliance-bestowed title, regarding it as an important symbol of status 22 29.

His enthusiasm sometimes outruns his judgment. After Hu Yanbo reaches King Rank, Babata declares him among Ganwu Universe Country’s strongest figures and urges immediate revenge against Demon Hand King; Hu Yanbo privately recognizes that both assessments are premature. Babata likewise becomes frantic over Glorious Light’s farewell message until reminded that panic will not help locate him 28 35.
