Chapter 223.The Empire’s Universally Recognized Super Genius Throughout History
After kicking away the self-righteous woman, the blond man approached Player 14 with a strange smile.
Player 14 struggled, but in the end, he was no match for the combined efforts of the many black-robed figures. Severely injured, he was pinned to the ground and fitted with Spirit Pressure Shackles.
Seeing that the blond man was not joking and was actually starting to his undress, Player 14’s eyes widened in terror. “Are you f***ing insane? Xin’er, save me!”
He turned his head to beg the beautiful woman in the distance for help, only to see her with a conflicted and fearful expression as she retreated. “Husband, just endure it, it’ll pass quickly…”
Compared to death, she felt that being cuckolded by another man was not a big deal.
Player 14 was struck as if by lightning.
Not only Player 14, but the surrounding nobles and staff were also bewildered.
Xia Feng inwardly exclaimed, “I’ve seen it all.” Fortunately, his disguised appearance was unremarkable. Otherwise, with his damn handsome true face, he would surely have caught the eye of this perverted blondie. What a case of beauty causing disaster.
“Officer, I know you are watching from the shadows.” The blond man looked around with a playful smile. “If you don’t want to be ‘favored’ by me like this gentleman, I suggest you step out sooner rather than later. Otherwise, it will be your turn eventually~”
The men shivered in disgust, while the women couldn’t help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Xia Feng’s eyes twitched slightly, and his brows furrowed. This couldn’t go on. More than ten people had already died. This officer, codenamed “Cold Eagle,” was clearly planning to feign ignorance and not intervene.
“Bang bang bang—”
The massacre continued, and Player 14 was crying rivers of tears.
Many people couldn’t bear it and started to flee, turning the scene into a bloody and chaotic mess.
Finally, when the blond man turned his excited gaze to the vice-captain, a man in his middle age who still retained his roguish charm.
The vice-captain’s scalp tingled, and he stood up expressionlessly. “Alright, I am Cold Eagle.”
The blond man paused, a mocking smile curling his lips.
A phantom of Viper hovered in the center of the hall, its vertical pupils looking down at the more than three hundred corpses below. It said seriously:
“My deepest apologies for causing you all such distress in order to draw out the enemy.”
Its voice was low and resonant. “But rest assured, you will not truly die. In the future kingdom built by Burning Heaven, your spirits will live on forever, and your contributions to the cause of Burning Heaven will never be forgotten!”
Listening to Viper’s apology, the panicked crowd gradually quieted down. No one dared to object.
Cold Eagle brushed the blood splatter from his sleeve, walked through the corpses, and slowly approached the center of the hall.
A group of black-robed figures surrounded him, their Blood-Eye Masks impassive.
The blond man smiled and extended his hand. “Mr. Cold Eagle, hand over the item.”
The roguish man just smiled, shook his head, and raised his eyes to look at Viper suspended above.
“Your Excellency Viper, I won’t waste your time. In reality, even if you find me, you won’t get the seed.”
“Oh, so the seed isn’t on you?” Viper’s vertical pupils narrowed.
The roguish man pointed to the ceiling and said calmly, “The seed has been dispersed and integrated with this ship. If you want to obtain the seed, you’ll have to take the entire ship with you. But unfortunately, the Star Wheel’s travel speed is no different from a turtle crawling.”
Hearing his explanation, not only the members of the Burning Heaven Sacred Hall but also the secretly hidden Golden Sparrow Flower noble faction, and Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong frowned.
It had to be said that Cold Eagle’s move was brilliant. This Star Wheel departed from Sector 49, passed through Sector 50 and Sector 51, and finally arrived at the coast of Sector 51, Area 1, where there was a military fortress of the Li Dong Legion. By the time the Star Wheel arrived, the seed would also arrive.
Even if someone tried to snatch it during the process, it would take a lot of time to sneak away with the entire Star Wheel, giving the Li Dong Legion enough time to react. Seeing everyone fall silent in thought, the roguish man shrugged and laughed, “I assume some of you have heard of this very niche B-grade Spirit Robe, ‘Object Assimilation Sealing Technique,’ which can seal any non-living object into another non-living object.”
“To be honest, I only know how to seal, not unseal. So, you figure it out.” As he spoke, he directly produced a black Spirit Paper and threw it into the air, where Viper caught it. He then said with a light smile,
“Viper, here’s another piece of news: the Li Dong Legion has already departed, so you have at most 20 days to learn.”
Cold Eagle knew that even if he tried to hide it, he would be interrogated and forced to reveal everything. Therefore, he chose to lay all his cards on the table.
Seeing Cold Eagle’s confident demeanor, as if to say, “Go ahead and learn, go ahead and snatch the seed. If you can snatch it, I lose,” the blond man’s face turned grim.
However, it was true that for a B-grade Spirit Robe, even the geniuses from the major sectors would need at least a month or even years to learn it. 20 days—what could they possibly learn?
The only one who could learn it in 20 days would likely be the Empire’s strongest, Huang Ye, who was universally recognized as the greatest Super genius in the Empire’s history, bar none.
According to historical records, Huang Ye once learned a B-grade Spirit Robe in just 18 days; he was terrifyingly talented.
Thus, Cold Eagle was so confident. He truly didn’t believe there was anyone on this ship more talented than the Pillar State, Huang Ye.
Viper’s dark green vertical pupils narrowed. After a moment of contemplation, it waved its hand, and several black-robed figures surrounded Cold Eagle.
After eight grueling hours of hypnotic truth testing, it was confirmed that Cold Eagle had not lied. He truly only knew how to seal, not unseal, and had deliberately not learned how to unseal.
There was no other way. Time ticked by, minute by minute.
Just then, a noble young master named Renault stood up and walked slowly to the center.
“Viper, if you don’t mind, could you let me try?” the noble young master asked with a calm expression.
“Oh? You?” Viper’s eyes narrowed, emitting a dangerous glint.
Renault looked up and smiled lightly. “I am proficient in various ‘deconstruction-type Spirit Particle Structures’ and have extensive experience. I can learn only the portion of the Spirit Robe related to unsealing, without needing to fully master ‘Object Assimilation Sealing.’ 20 days should be enough. After all, you only need to unseal the seed, right?”
This was indeed a viable method, and they could try it. Viper looked at Renault thoughtfully. “So, what do you want?”
“I heard you also accept assassination services,” Renault said with a smile. “I need the Burning Heaven Sacred Hall to kill someone for me.”
“That’s easy to arrange.”
“Cough, excuse me.” Just then, Xia Feng also quietly stood up from the crowd, a confident expression on his face. “Honestly, if you only need to learn ‘unsealing,’ then 17 days! I only need 17 days to learn it!”
Xia Feng’s eyes were bright, and he said sincerely, “Viper, my condition is very simple. Just let me see the complete ‘Object Assimilation Sealing Technique.'”
As Xia Feng stood up, five other people also gradually stood up. Mu Qingtong silently mingled among them, also offering to help try, with the condition that she wanted to memorize the complete Spirit Particle Structure of the Object Assimilation Sealing Technique. After all, it was a B-grade Spirit Robe, and even if it wasn’t an offensive type, it was extremely rare.
Viper naturally didn’t believe there were so many geniuses on this Star Wheel, but it was a case of a dead horse treated as a living one; this was their only option for now.
“Alright, come forward.” Viper tossed the black Spirit Paper into the air.
Seven geniuses walked to the center of the hall. Seeing this, Cold Eagle watched calmly, not panicking at all, even finding it a little amusing.
Did these young noble lords and ladies really think that a B-grade Spirit Robe was that easy to learn?
Even just learning a fragment of the unsealing technique, in 20 days? Cold Eagle shook his head and said nothing.
