Chapter 1305 - 639: Direct Confrontation with the Convoy
"This Heart Core is for you, refine it as soon as possible."
Up in the sky, Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai were flying rapidly.
He took out the Heart Core in his hand and handed it to Zhao Kai.
Zhao Kai was momentarily stunned, then quickly said, "Brother Liang, this Heart Core should be used by a Water Attribute Superpower User to maximize its power."
"I’m an Ice Attribute Superpower User, it would be a bit of a waste for me to use it."
Liang Yuan nodded slightly and said, "I’ve thought it over, at the moment within our Yangshan, the strongest among the Water Attribute Users is Han Xiangman. Her Main Attribute is almost at 100 points."
"However, I’ve sent her to Fanshan Island to handle some matters. For now, you should refine this Heart Core and Brain Core."
"Once she’s done over there, just hand them over to her."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Kai nodded and accepted the Heart Core and Brain Core.
Liang Yuan said, "The situation at Fanshan Island is quite complex, and now there’s something happening in Furong Valley. By my calculations, the armored unit is probably about to reach Linjiang."
"I need to return to Yangshan to oversee and manage these affairs as soon as possible."
"I’ll leave the Miyuan Rainforest area to you. If a crisis arises that you cannot withstand, don’t hold out to the death. Remember, as long as you are alive, there is hope."
Zhao Kai nodded slightly, "I understand, Brother Liang."
After giving a few more instructions, Liang Yuan did not head to the Miyuan Rainforest; the two parted ways immediately.
One flew back to Yangshan directly, the other headed to the Miyuan Rainforest.
Currently, Zhao Kai has already reached 100 points in his Main Attribute. After refining the Heart Core and Brain Core from the Miyuan Rainforest, his Spiritual Power and Constitution will surely increase.
By then, with Zhao Kai’s situation, breaking through genetic reorganization shouldn’t be difficult.
It’s worth noting that Zhao Kai hasn’t consumed mutated beast meat that often after following Liang Yuan.
The miscellaneous genes in his body are quite low, so he can completely attempt genetic reorganization.
On the contrary, Li Qinghua and Han Xiangman have had a bit more difficulty; they haven’t been stingy with eating mutated beast blood and flesh.
Liang Yuan pondered, realizing the need to accelerate earning points and exchange for materials that can enhance genetic reorganization efficiency.
This isn’t just for himself; it’s also necessary for his subordinates.
Whoosh!
Liang Yuan sped through the air and returned to Yangshan in about ten minutes.
For him now, a distance of several dozen kilometers is just a brief outing.
If it were a flight-capable mutated beast like the Golden Crow Beast, the speed could be even faster.
Therefore, the Celestial Abyss Passage isn’t without threat to Yangshan; quite the opposite, Yangshan is too close to it.
"The Celestial Abyss Passage is a good location. Once my genetic reorganization progresses, I can stay there long-term to earn points."
Liang Yuan thought to himself as he arrived back at the Leader’s Mansion.
Upon arrival, he saw Zhuang Shuyuan, with several others, anxiously pacing in the mansion’s lobby, her face full of concern.
Liang Yuan instantly felt a stir in his heart and quickly walked over.
"Minister Zhuang!"
Clad in a red cheongsam, Zhuang Shuyuan heard the commotion and quickly looked up, a relieved expression crossing her face as she anxiously said, "Mr. Liang, you’re finally back!"
She hurried over, the red silk cheongsam billowing with her movement.
Liang Yuan, however, had no interest in lingering over this sight and frowned, "What’s happened, why so urgent?"
"News just came from the Dark Abyss Mouth."
"The group on Fanshan Island, not only are they defectors of Yang Baoshan, but there’s someone behind them pulling the strings; you’ll never guess who it is!"
Liang Yuan slightly raised his eyebrow, "Wait, isn’t Yang Baoshan currently battling with Beichen Island? Could it be that the group from Fanshan Island has been turned by people from Beichen Island?"
Zhuang Shuyuan said, "No, Beichen Island is just a pawn too! Someone, after conquering Beichen Island, then targeted Yang Baoshan and turned Gu Jianye, Yang Baoshan’s second-in-command!"
"During the battle between the two islands, Gu Jianye attacked Yang Baoshan’s leader, Pu Shanshan, by surprise, gravely wounding him and severely weakening Yang Baoshan’s forces."
"Despite Pu Shanshan ultimately repelling the strong enemy, Gu Jianye fled to Fanshan Island, but Yang Baoshan’s decline was evident, and the one behind the scenes immediately led Beichen Island to strike again."
"This person behind the scenes, Mr. Liang, you definitely know!"
Liang Yuan frowned deeply, "I know? Who is it?"
"Chang Yuntao from Mist City!"
Zhuang Shuyuan revealed a name that Liang Yuan hadn’t expected!
His expression changed slightly at the mention of this name, which he had nearly forgotten.
After all, when he first entered Mist City, he concealed his name, and even later, when he took away the Blood Crystal, no one knew.
Chang Yuntao hadn’t appeared in Linjiang, nor had he come near Yangshan.
Liang Yuan had thought that the identity of the one who took the Blood Crystal hadn’t been uncovered, and the matter had become a cold case.
He hadn’t expected to hear this person’s name again after so long.
As he rapidly processed everything, a question suddenly sprang to mind.
Does Chang Yuntao know that he was the one who took the Blood Crystal from Mist City?
The next moment, Liang Yuan found an answer within.
Undoubtedly, yes.
"If Chang Yuntao didn’t know the Blood Crystal was taken by me, why wouldn’t he develop his power in Linjiang, and instead travel all the way to Baoshan City?"
"Typically, possessing a Floating Island like Mist City, he would likely have increased his power long ago and occupied some mountain or island territories in Linjiang."
"But he hasn’t done so, nor has he entered my sphere of influence. What is he afraid of?"
Liang Yuan was almost certain internally that Chang Yuntao knew he was the one who had taken the Blood Crystal.
Therefore, the opposition had always been wary of him!
That’s why he left Linjiang.
Now he’s aiming for Baoshan City, using Fanshan Island as a springboard, and eventually dealing with Yangshan.
Liang Yuan squinted, already sensing the crisis.
"Have they taken Fanshan Island?"
Zhuang Shuyuan shook her head, "We’ve received news from over there that Gu Jianye’s superpower is very unique, and he himself is also an expert with the main attribute reaching 100 points, Han the Beauty and the others are likely unable to handle him."
Liang Yuan glanced at her, wondering at a time like this, why this woman is still emphasizing ’Han the Beauty.’
"What is Gu Jianye’s superpower?"
"Word Spirit."
"What is that?"
"Word Spirit, it’s said to be a power where his words immediately come true, an extremely unique ability."
Liang Yuan was somewhat shocked, there was such an ability?
Han Xiangman hasn’t reached 100 points in her main attribute yet, facing Gu Jianye indeed puts her at a disadvantage, especially if Gu Jianye’s ability is so unique, they really aren’t a match.
Liang Yuan asked, "What is the main attribute of this ability?"
"According to the intelligence we’ve received, his main attribute should be Spiritual Power."
"Spiritual Power?"
Liang Yuan pondered, the ability seems unrelated to Spiritual Power superpowers, but rather similar to a skill he has comprehended.
He quickly glanced at his skill bar.
[Lucky Anchor Point]: Causal Skills
Skill Quality: Green
Skill Requirements: Spiritual Power 12 points, Constitution 10 points
Skill Effect: Sense and pull the causality line with Spiritual Power, after locking onto the enemy, your attacks will have a guaranteed hit effect.
"My Lucky Anchor Point, once activated, has a guaranteed hit effect, the main requirement is also Spiritual Power."
"This Gu Jianye’s ability, based on his words coming true, seems similar to causal abilities."
"And his main attribute is also Spiritual Power."
Zhuang Shuyuan analyzed, "Looking at this person’s past experience, since he could successfully ambush Yang Baoshan’s leader Pu Shanlie, it must be more than just Pu Shanlie’s lack of vigilance, this person at least possesses the means to harm experts at the Genetic Reorganization Level."
"Such means that can harm experts at the Genetic Reorganization Level, no superpower user below that level can withstand."
"Mr. Liang, if Han the Beauty and the others really forcefully attack Fanshan Island, they’ll likely suffer a big loss."
Liang Yuan nodded slightly, saying, "You’re right, this person’s ability is not something Han Xiangman and the others can handle."
"Seems like I’ll have to go personally."
Zhuang Shuyuan hurriedly shook her head, saying, "Mr. Liang, you can’t leave just yet."
"What’s wrong?" Liang Yuan asked in confusion.
"The armor squad coming from the direction of Furong Valley is already thirty kilometers away."
"At most half a day, they will reach the vicinity of Mirage Snake Space."
Liang Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, "So fast? Have they gathered any new intelligence?"
Zhuang Shuyuan shook her head, "These people are very cautious, with little to no stops along the way, their goal is clear, they’re heading straight towards Yangshan."
"And according to our scouts’ reports, when they feigned being explorers to approach the armor squad, the opposing party was very vigilant, not allowing them near."
"Only small teams that seem non-threatening have been invited over by them, who use the guise of trading material while trying to gather our intelligence."
Liang Yuan’s gaze darkened, "Have they seen the leader of the armor squad?"
"No, it’s always their captain, a man named Hu Peigang."
Liang Yuan said coldly, "Looks like they’re really targeting us."
Zhuang Shuyuan asked, "Then what should we do now?"
"Since they’re coming looking for us, we might as well go meet them!"
"This group has an armor convoy, probably with formidable firepower, we mustn’t let them enter Yangshan’s area."
"Rather than letting them continue into Yangshan, I’ll go directly and confront them!"
"This way, even if they are enemies, at least I’ll choose the battlefield."
Liang Yuan’s gaze sparkled, and he rose into the air.
Zhuang Shuyuan quickly called out, "Wang Xiao just came back from over there, let him lead the way, do you need a team?"
Liang Yuan said, "The power of the opposing armor convoy is unknown, others going will only be dangerous, focus on defense preparations."
Wang Xiao quickly followed, shouting, "Mr. Liang, I’ll lead the way."
He is a Speed Ability User, can’t fly, and can only race swiftly on the ground.
Liang Yuan follows behind him, speeding toward the northwest.
Thirty kilometers for the two is just a moment’s work.
On the vast snowy ground, a rune-clad armor convoy is slowly approaching.
Seeing the armor convoy up close, Liang Yuan understood why Zhuang Shuyuan repeatedly emphasized their high technological level.
The gigantic armor convoy in front, each vehicle is like a moving skyscraper.
Huge treaded wheels slowly drive the entire armored vehicle.
Rune lights flicker over it, with numerous cannon mouths mounted and small shooting windows scattered throughout.
This is essentially a mobile fortress of war!
