Chapter 377. How Are They Here?

//~~~~/~~~~/~~~~//\\~~~~\~~~~\~~~~\\

Lu Ze and Lin Ling stood on the streets.

The streets were occupied by the parade people. Accompanied by an unstoppable force, they walked past Lu Ze's and Lin Ling's eyes. Several people started commenting.

"They are retarded!"

"I feel they are pretty brave."

"It is mainly due to that Lu Ze, right? But I feel it was over the top too. The defense force fleet is the armed forces meant to protect the citizens. Why did it become a private bodyguard?"

"Lu Ze already has a Mortal Evolution State Power. Does he need that protection? It is just a matter of attitude. If you have his contributions, then you can have such a greeting too."

"Since he doesn't need protection, is he doing it to act cool?"

"Why do you only see that side of it? Why can't you see him fighting with blood on the battlefield?"

"Do you want to fight??"

"The police are here. Stop."

"Let's go to work…"

Lu Ze had fun listening. He was even thinking whether he should take his mask off to scare these people. However, he didn't expect the police to arrive.

When Lu Ze and Lin Ling looked ahead, there were police sirens. However, due to the problematic traffic, the car couldn't even be driven over.

"Everyone, please leave immediately. Don't contribute to the traffic. Otherwise, we will deal with things through law enforcement!" a middle-aged policeman yelled. He was an Abstruse Martial State. He didn't even need a speaker, and everyone could hear him clearly.

The protesting people saw the police approaching and felt a little scared. If they had chosen to run at this time, it would be very awkward, right?

The protesting people went silent.

The flying cars weren't able to keep moving forward due to the traffic and were behind the people on the ground. However, the lights were still flashing.

Suddenly, one person in the crowd said, "Our power might be small, but we won't back out this easily! We protest against special rights!"

After hearing the voice of their fellow protestor, those who went silent for a moment immediately started chanting again. They would not give up so easily!

The policeman frowned upon seeing this scene. Thereafter, his Abstruse Martial State chi exploded, bearing down against these people.

The chi of the other policemen burst as well. Most of them were at the Spirit Martial State while a small portion of them were at the Abstruse Martial State. If persuasion could not work, then they had to be suppressed first.

The protestors were about to back out again. At this moment, someone in the crowd of protestors released his chi. Several 'chi' burst thereafter.

With this, the protestors were about to clash with the police.

The audience quickly retreated after noticing the severity of the situation. It seemed like they were going to fight. At this moment, three figures surged from the crowd.

A Core Martial State chi broke out and immobilized all the protestors. Afterward, the police quickly subjugated the people. It would be difficult for them if conflict really broke out. Good thing someone came to help.

As soon as the three released their chi, the people around them immediately retreated in horror.

The chi wasn't targeted at them, but the pressure was immense.

Lu Ze was planning to intervene, but now, he didn't need to.

On the side, Lin Ling, who was preparing to release her chi, suppressed it instead. Both looked toward the three people who intervened—it was two girls and one guy. They didn't seem much older than Lu Ze and Lin Ling.

The two girls were very good looking and so was the guy.

Lin Ling said, "They're probably students of the Dawn System."

Lu Ze nodded.

After all, there were quite some people who accepted the mission. It would be normal to encounter them here.

Lu Ze asked, "Did you find anyone suspicious?"

Lin Ling shook her head. "No."

Lu Ze sighed. "Never mind. It's such a small event after all. Even if there was someone here, it would be a small fry."

All the protestors were detained and so were the cars.

The middle-aged policeman went to thank the three people.

Soon, traffic congestion was solved, and people went on to do what they need to do. At this moment, Lu Ze stopped Lin Ling and pointed at two people. "Look at those two."

Lin Ling looked over. "Aren't those Professor Jian Wen and Chris? Why are they here?"

Lu Ze smiled. "Let's go over and say hi."

Lin Ling smiled and nodded.

The two walked over and waved at the professors. "Professor Jian and Chris."

The two professors looked over with some confusion.

Nevertheless, they still walked toward Lu Ze and Lin Ling.

Jian Wen looked at the two with vigilance. "You are?"

Lu Ze wanted to laugh. They were probably vigilant because the city was a bit chaotic. They were Aperture Opening State scientists.

Lu Ze was planning to tell them to go somewhere with fewer people, but then, he recalled learning [Telepathy].

Accordingly, Lu Ze used [Telepathy]. "Professor Jian and Chris. I'm Lu Ze. Lin Ling is next to me. We met last time at Gula System."

After hearing this, their bodies stiffened. Worry flashed across their eyes, but it quickly receded.

The two smiled at Lu Ze. Following this, Jian Wen said, "So it's you guys. I really didn't expect to see you two here."

Chris smiled. "What a coincidence."

Lu Ze asked in confusion, "Weren't you two doing research at Gula System? Why are you here?"

The two looked at each other, and then Jian Wen answered, "Our homes are in the Gracious System. The research activity is over, so we came home to visit. We just got back here."

Chris' eyes flashed, and he smiled. "Our research team belongs to a research center in the neighboring system, Ena System. You guys know about it, right?"

Lin Ling nodded. "That system that focuses on researching all sorts of gene serums?".

Lu Ze nodded. He knew about this too. Most of the Xingzhan fruits were shipped there.

Lu Ze asked curiously, "Can we go visit Ena System?"

He wondered if there were other delicious fruits too.

The two became dazed, and then, Jian Wen replied, "Most of the planets there are used to grow all sorts of spirit fruits and spirit beasts. Planet Ena is a serum production factory and research center. There are no ordinary cities, and security is very tight."

"Ena System is completely unaffected by the riots here as ordinary people can't enter there. However, if it's you, you can probably go there if you apply."

Lu Ze gasped.

An application is needed. How troublesome. He couldn't be bothered anymore.

According to Professor Jian Wen, there should be an extremely important base located in there, right?

Hence, even if he went there, there would be no fruits to eat, so why should he go?

At this time, Chris looked at the time and said, "Old guy, we need to go."

With that, Jian Wen smiled at the two. "It's hard for us to have a holiday. We're planning to visit home. We'll talk again when you have time."

Lu Ze and Lin Ling nodded. "Goodbye."

Chapter 378. This Way of Entering the Scene Is Very Popular?

//~~~~/~~~~/~~~~//\\~~~~\~~~~\~~~~\\

Lu Ze frowned as he watched Jian Wen and Chris leave.

Lin Ling asked, "What's wrong?"

Lu Ze replied, "I don't know if I sensed it incorrectly, but I seemed to have felt a very faint space ripple from them."

If he didn't have [Space God Art], he wouldn't be able to sense it at all. This wasn't a space ripple of the storage ring but one that Lu Ze wasn't familiar with. It was more like a remnant mark of space that was almost about to disappear.

Lin Ling's face stiffened. Thereafter, she looked at Lu Ze and used [Telepathy].

"How did you sense it?"

She didn't doubt that Lu Ze had sensed something wrong. She was only curious about how Lu Ze could discover it.

Lu Ze grinned. "I accidentally learned a [Space Transmission God Art]."

Lin Ling: Elo_0;)

She felt dazed. Perhaps, she might have heard it incorrectly.

Moments later, she used [Telepathy]. "Accidentally? You accidentally learned this?"

This was so annoying. She wanted to hit Lu Ze, but she couldn't beat him. After hearing her, Lu Ze felt safe. This was the real Lin Ling. Staying calm didn't suit her at all.

He replied, "Don't mind this. The problem now is that those two seem a bit strange."

Lin Ling frowned. "Their reaction does seem weird."

The two appeared to be very scared. It was as though they were hiding something.

Lu Ze said, "Let's follow them and see?"

Lin Ling nodded.

At the northern border of the Federation, Laku System.

A huge planet floated outside the solar system. It was similar to the base on the Xiaer System but was larger.

Fleets went in and out of the body in an orderly fashion. In a meeting room inside the commander's building in the base, tens of high-level military officials sat around a round table while watching a projected star map.

A part of it was blue while the other part of it was red. It was the fleets of the human race and the blade demon race.

The red colors were increasing, which in turn, surpassed the blue in numbers.

The man who was sitting at the front was a black-haired handsome youth. His ranking was a golden sword and three stars. He was a lieutenant general. This meant that he was a Planetary State.

His brow frowned as he looked at the star map. "The blade demon ships are increasing. There will be greater pressure on the border. Reinforcements need three days to arrive. What do you guys think?"

He glanced around.

The tens of people sitting here were mostly major generals or brigadier generals. Their cultivation levels were all at the Mortal Evolution State.

Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha sat on one side. Luo Bingqing, Derick, and a few powerful young guys and girls were also there.

One brown-haired middle-aged major general said, "The blade demon fleets reinforcements are just giving us pressure. However, they are not attacking. I suspect their goal isn't to attack. We should stand guard and wait for reinforcements."

Another young major general said, "Major General Hans' suggestion is possible, but if their power surpasses us too much, then we wouldn't be able to defend, even if we stand guard at the border. My suggestion is to draw reinforcements from nearby."

Another young brigadier general said, "But there are no nearby forces that we can mobilize, right?"

A gray-haired youth, who was sitting next to Nangong Jing, said, "There is. The defense force of Ena System is on par with the border defense force, isn't it?"

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this.

Moments later, the Planetary State said, "This is a state of emergency. Mobilize half of Ena System's defense force to come and support the border. Ask the reinforcements to hurry up and leave half of their troops at the Ena system."

"Yes, Lieutenant General Yuejing!"

Yuejing rubbed his forehead and said, "Everyone, prepare for battle."

The officers got up and walked outside.

Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha got up too and walked out together.

As soon as they left the meeting room, Nangong Jing took out a bottle to drink.

Qiuyue Hesha smiled. "Little brother Lu Ze and Lin Ling went to the Gracious System."

"I know. Hopefully, that kid doesn't start any trouble again."

"How is the situation with Eternal Life Palace?"

"Nothing is found."

Lu Ze and Lin Ling followed Jian Wen and Chris. They both learned the chi stealth technique and were far stronger than the two. It was all too easy to follow them.

The two scientists strolled very slowly and found a restaurant to eat lunch before finding a café to have afternoon tea.

Lu Ze looked speechlessly at the two. These two were very bad. They just told them they were busy, and yet, they strolled around in the city for a day.

Eventually, the sun gradually set. Thereafter, the two scientists went into another restaurant.

Lu Ze: "…"

Lin Ling: "…"

Lu Ze and Lin Ling hid behind a corner. At this moment, Lin Ling had shrunk into Lu Ze's arms.

The two pretended to be a couple. After all, this was essential to successfully tail their targets. However, the atmosphere was very silent.

Moments later, Lu Ze faintly said, "I'm hungry."

Those two bastards were enjoying food while they were here doing nothing. This was really distasteful!

At least, hugging Lin Ling gave him some comfort.

Lin Ling's mouth twitched. She glared at Lu Ze. "Endure it!"

Two hours later, the sky turned deep dark.

Finally, the two targets walked out of the shop.

Subsequently, those two targets sped up and walked out of the city and flew up.

Lu Ze and Lin Ling silently followed behind.

The flight went on for two hours. It was deep into the night, and the two came into a forest.

Jian Wen and Chris took out a phone as though to confirm something. They kept changing directions before finally coming to a spacious region.

Space in this region suddenly moved and two figures appeared.

The shadows of trees covered the two.

As the wind blew, the branches moved, making them seem ghastly.

Lu Ze couldn't resist commenting. "Their posture while entering seems to be similar to ghosts."

Lin Ling rolled her eyes. "Be serious!"

It was two middle-aged men. One was handsome and scholarly-looking.

The other was bulky and ferocious.

Upon seeing this, Lu Ze and Lin Ling felt complicated—both were confused.

Lu Ze used telepathy. "I didn't expect that they would really be related to the Eternal Life Palace."

He could not help but sigh. Those two professors left a great impression on him.

In the Gula System, they were very hospitable. Professor Chris even said all life should be respected.

Unexpectedly… knowing a person doesn't mean knowing what was inside their hearts.

Lu Ze felt uncomfortable.
