Chapter 175: Chapter 133: Celestial Secret Sensing

In the end, Yu Dongcheng left the Lanyu Kingdom. Chen Qi invested another 5 million in him and his team, sending them to the Lideta Kingdom to start a new venture.

Over there, his good partner Westin Kuta would take care of everything.

As for the Lideta Kingdom joining the Second World project, Chen Qi wasn’t just making things up to trick Yu Dongcheng.

The information came from Westin, so it was essentially insider news he had gotten in advance.

Therefore, if Yu Dongcheng and his team were truly skilled, heading to the Lideta Kingdom now meant they were catching the next big wave.

This could be considered Chen Qi’s way of thanking Yu Dongcheng. After all, if he had never met Yu Dongcheng, he never would have learned the truth about what happened that year.

So Chen Qi didn’t care whether their venture was successful or not; he just wanted them to leave the Lanyu Kingdom.

The Lanyu Kingdom was about to enter a period of great upheaval and reshuffling.

It was becoming far too dangerous for ordinary people to live there.

Although the vast majority of players would actively avoid crowds when fighting...

...in a true life-or-death situation, who would care about the lives of ordinary humans?

Chen Qi’s own childhood experience was the most obvious example.

After seeing off Yu Dongcheng and his team, Chen Qi began to study the R-type login device and the combat footage over and over.

This thing was the product of an investment Chen Qi had made with cold, hard cash; naturally, the ownership rights belonged to him.

The R-type login device’s core components used Extraordinary Metal, which didn’t surprise Chen Qi.

But in the most crucial "chip" component, Chen Qi was shocked to find a tiny bit of Nuclear Iron.

This was simply incredible!

Because although that speck of Nuclear Iron was minuscule, maybe only a tenth the size of a sesame seed, it was somehow able to exist in a stable state.

Clearly, this was a truly qualified piece of Nuclear Iron.

It wasn’t like the defective ones Chen Qi had made before.

The Nuclear Iron Chen Qi made would turn into a Matter Field or a Life Magnet Field the moment it was separated from its wrapping of Spirituality.

The one in the R-type login device was different. It normally manifested as a Matter Field, but once connected to a player’s brainwaves, it would transform into a Life Magnet Field.

It was truly wondrous!

In Chen Qi’s view, this Nuclear Iron was practically comparable to a magnetic field lifeform.

The only difference was that a magnetic field lifeform was a type of life.

Whether it transformed into a Matter Field or a Life Magnet Field, it initiated those transformations itself.

But Nuclear Iron was different; it was essentially a special material.

Whether it transformed into a Matter Field or a Life Magnet Field, it was through Assimilation.

’Does it directly read memories from the brain by linking to the Life Magnet Field of the brain cells?’

’It must be far more than that.’

’There must be another secret within the chip made of Nuclear Iron. It probably involves a deeper level of Brain Escape technology.’

Since this was the only physical sample he had, and Chen Qi still needed it to study the combat footage, he didn’t perform a destructive disassembly of the R-type login device, only giving its structure a cursory examination.

Besides, Chen Qi wasn’t very confident that he could decipher the secrets of the R-type login device with his current knowledge base.

He knew his own limits.

In a way, Chen Qi was currently a self-taught practitioner among Transcendents, and he lacked far too much fundamental knowledge.

Chen Qi had already decided that once he got out of the Lanyu Kingdom, he absolutely had to go to a proper [Curse Academy] and study seriously for a while.

To promote the new laws, the World Government had established numerous academies in the Inner World. As long as you could pass the entrance exam, they welcomed all comers.

Since the primary methods of the new laws for Transcendents involved the application and combination of various Spells, most of the schools established by the World Government were named some form of "Curse Academy."

According to *Inner World General Knowledge*, there were over 3,000 Curse Academies of varying sizes in the Inner Ring world, and Chen Qi’s goal was naturally the top 10 institutions.

Of course, all of this was predicated on him getting out of the Lanyu Kingdom alive.

After witnessing the power of the LV5 player in the footage, especially the power at the end that resembled an Apostle Armament, Chen Qi felt immense pressure.

Based on Chen Qi’s countless viewings and analyses, the ability his enemy used at the end seemed to draw heat from the surrounding environment.

More accurately, it drew on the power of solar radiation.

That’s why the scene in Yu Dongcheng’s memory gradually lost its color and faded to black.

Conjuring a Little Sun with bare hands—the destructive power of such an ability was undeniable. No wonder a massive, vitrified crater had appeared on the Carlos Plains.

The train Chen Qi had been on back then had merely been caught in the aftershock of the massive explosion.

But Trudeau, who had inspected the site, still didn’t believe it was the power of an Apostle.

This meant that the attacks of an LV6 player would be even more terrifying.

And according to Chen Qi’s calculations, that battle should have taken place during the game’s fifth "shuffle."

If that person had survived until now, they would have surely become an Apostle long ago.

In other words, Chen Qi’s "enemy" was very likely one of the current Apostle players in the game.

This was also the reason Chen Qi felt such immense pressure.

Time passed day by day. After the death-row convicts were all finally captured, the Lanyu Kingdom returned to its former peace and stability.

On the surface, for ordinary people, a new Prime Minister was finally inaugurated, the economy ran smoothly, and everything seemed wonderful.

But among the players, the situation was turbulent and treacherous, full of intrigue and scheming.

After fermenting for a while, the secret that all the veteran players had tried so hard to keep was finally exposed.

"The Nulis Federation’s backer is the legendary Heaven-Reaching Empire."
