Chapter 167: How Could There Not Be A Mysterious Foundation!

On the coast of Bangzi Country.

Aside from the Flower Flag Country military currently cleaning up the battlefield.

Troops responsible for protecting the capital were also urgently transferred over to set up a defensive line.

It was not to be safe, worrying about whether there might be any fish that slipped through the net.

Rather, it was to stop media reporters and busybodies from various places who knew a thing or two about the news from coming.

And thereby discovering facts that the big shots of Bangzi Country would find difficult to handle.

With the tacit approval of the major powers.

Everyone chose to handle the small-scale nuclear explosion by Flower Flag Country targeting the Space-Time Rift with a cold shoulder.

Just waiting for the radiation to drop to a certain level, and this matter would be considered over.

Even if some rumors leaked out, they could all be dismissed as conspiracy theorists who were either stupid or malicious.

Of course, the appearance of the Space-Time Rift and the modern firepower battle against the otherworldly monsters... because so many officers and soldiers were present, this could not be hidden.

The major powers were not prepared to hide it either.

Some teams even began to use footage provided by Drones and other sources for editing and special effects processing, preparing to let people slowly understand these anomalies that might appear continuously in the future through news and other platforms.

So as to avoid people having too low a psychological endurance when the big one comes, thereby causing too many bad social phenomena.

Furthermore.

Accompanying the appearance of the Space-Time Rift.

The confirmed existence of otherworldly monsters.

Many investors who were extremely sensitive to current events were the first to discover that the tense world Order had suddenly eased.

The global division of labor and cooperation on Water Blue Star, which was originally about to go cold, was brought up once again.

And this time, the voices within the major powers that would oppose everything suddenly quieted down, allowing things to be pushed forward smoothly.

The construction industry, mining industry, and large-scale manufacturing industry also ushered in a long-lost spring.

Many bosses, big and small, who had long since changed professions, also gritted their teeth after receiving phone calls and began contacting old hands to re-enter the trade.

Fortunately, Exoskeleton equipment is now mature and has become accessible to the Commoner.

Even old men and old women can rely on this help to exert their remaining heat...

Re-entering the trade is not too late!

When the various forces of Water Blue Star were busy.

Su Ping had already silently gone to the Fishing spot to first finish the Fishing attempts refreshed on Water Blue Star.

After having good luck and obtaining a Green Spirit Fish.

Inside the Pot Heaven.

Su Ping didn't rush to throw the Green Spirit Fish into the Spirit Light Fish Pond, but instead used the book experience from the Abyss Rift challenge reward.

He directly pulled Exorcist Mage Yunkong to First Tier Perfection.

Immediately after, he used that Green Spirit Fish to satisfy the breakthrough conditions.

Allowing Exorcist Mage Yunkong to also successfully promote to the early stage of Second Tier, which meant Su Ping had added another Foundation Establishment combat force.

Then, looking at the extra five thousand Fishing Coins.

Su Ping washed his hands, and after letting Fox-Faced Shrine Maiden Sakura give him a blessing.

He began the long-lost card draw challenge.

The first wave of ten draws!

Although there was no gold, three streaks of purple light emerged!

Teleportation Talisman, Teleportation Talisman, Exorcist Mage Yunkong!

Two Teleportation Talismans, one Exorcist Mage Yunkong; this wave was definitely not a loss!

And it just so happened that Exorcist Mage Yunkong himself had dumped a wave of resources into it... was it because of this that the drop rate increased?

Su Ping naturally chose to let Exorcist Mage Yunkong promote.

The next second, the official Exorcist Mage Yunkong was promoted to the same veteran level as Fox-Faced Shrine Maiden Sakura.

In addition to the Exorcism Ice Array, he also unlocked a new ultimate technique: Ice Cloud Frost Heaven Meteor Fall!

Su Ping let Yunkong perform this ultimate technique on the spot.

Only to see Yunkong form seals with his hands in front of his chest, his eyes emitting white light, and his short white hair standing straight up.

With a hum, a circular white light Dharma Array appeared as Yunkong stepped on the ground.

About forty to fifty meters above Yunkong's head, a phantom white tiger Dharma image appeared.

Immediately, the Dharma image transformed into a white ice ball with a diameter exceeding ten meters, carrying the surrounding cold ice mist and Ice Crystal fragments.

It smashed down like a meteorite.

Golden Light flashed in Su Ping's eyes.

A Divine Ability Giant Hand appeared, blocking in front of this meteorite.

Boom!

Under the great collision, the meteorite exploded, erupting with piercing cold ice energy.

The explosion range was initially estimated to be able to affect a radius of one hundred meters.

It was not that it couldn't go further, but rather to concentrate energy to improve killing efficiency.

According to Exorcist Mage Yunkong's subsequent supplement, he could also shrink the explosion range of this ultimate technique to a radius of twenty to thirty meters.

Thereby further increasing the intensity of the continuous cold ice damage suffered by enemies within this range.

In addition, he could also enhance the power of this move by increasing his own consumption of Essence Spirit and Qi.

The power just now was already comparable to Su Ping's Beidou Tanlang Fist in his normal state.

Su Ping had just used that very fist to send a Foundation Establishment Late Stage Abyss monster flying.

This also showed that this move could already inflict a certain amount of damage on Foundation Establishment Late Stage opponents.

If it were a full-strength blow, with the power continuing to multiply... it could indeed be called an ultimate technique capable of defying the heavens and changing one's fate.

Su Ping also discovered that, just like the Exorcism Ice Array, the ice power generated by this ultimate technique also had a strong restraining effect on Evil Spirits and the like.

Su Ping looked toward Fire Knight Alwin.

After witnessing the qualitative growth of Exorcist Mage Yunkong, it would be a lie to say he wasn't looking forward to a qualitative change in the Fire Knight.

It was just that, who told him to be a rare partner?

To draw his promotion resources, he could only rely on the accumulation of time to have any hope.

The start was not bad; Su Ping took a deep breath and performed another ten-consecutive draw.

This time... only one purple light appeared.

Su Ping looked over, slightly stunned.

This time, no Teleportation Talisman appeared; instead, a new special building appeared.

【Winged Fire Snake Ancient Stele, special building, quality: Rare, exclusive to Pot Heaven, placing it can slightly increase the Dongtian's Spirit Qi output.】

"Winged Fire Snake Ancient Stele?"

Su Ping curiously summoned it and placed it in front of him.

He discovered it was a stone stele about five meters tall.

The surroundings and the top of the stele were engraved with totem patterns in the shape of a large snake with two wings.

Carved on the stele was an image of a Winged Fire Snake riding the clouds and mist, seemingly in a rage.

"This is one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions, the Winged Fire Snake!"

"A single special building only has the function of being ornamental and slightly increasing the Dongtian's Spirit Qi..."

"Well, it's not that I must gather all Twenty-Eight Mansions, but to make it effective, I must at least gather one of the Four Symbols, which means the seven mansions belonging to the same symbol!"

Su Ping's mouth twitched as he looked at the information.

He saw that the information specifically reminded him that the Twenty-Eight Mansions were new prizes added to the card pack after the Pot Heaven was upgraded.

"It seems today is not suitable for drawing cards."

"Better slow down and cultivate first."

After discovering he had drawn an ornamental building, Su Ping did not continue drawing cards.

He turned to take out the array map and Spirit Bead that had performed such great service.

He began to cultivate within the Pot Heaven and replenish their previous consumption.

…………

In the Great Library of the capital of the Gaul Chicken Country.

After difficult negotiations and finally reaching a compromise agreement.

This place welcomed an investigation team composed of major forces.

The Great Library had also been closed for a week.

Especially in those old warehouse areas where no one knew how long or how many old books had been piled up, a large number of security personnel had been on guard since early on.

And the reason... was all because after the major incident in the Arctic Circle, someone was suspected of being saved by a mysterious ability user, and the keyword given by the other party was: Dawn!

The word "Dawn," for the occultists and many big shots of old Ouluoba.

They were far too familiar with it!

In fact, there was a mysterious organization with the code name Dawn.

It had existed in reality in old Ouluoba for a very, very long time and still existed today, and it had always maintained a sense of mystery in the eyes of outsiders.

In the last century, when the mystery craze became popular, members claiming to be from the Dawn organization even appeared to promote it, attracting a lot of hype from the nouveau riche.

Of course, it didn't take long for the filters these nouveau riche had for mysterious organizations to shatter one after another, and they angrily expressed: Is this all there is to the so-called mysterious organization?

After all that, it turned out that the vast majority of the Dawn organization's profound-sounding materials were forged and written by them over the past few hundred years.

Some were even sourced from myths and stories of other regions, and after stripping away the skin and taking the core, they were applied to their own predecessors, becoming their predecessors' autobiographies.

In fact, they were not some extraordinary organization with extraordinary abilities as seen in novels.

They were a small circle of people, mainly Noble scholars, who had formed an organization based on common interests to facilitate their research.

Putting on a mysterious skin was just to make outsiders wary, while also making it convenient for them to conduct certain research that others considered blasphemous...

But now.

With someone casually mentioning it because of the name of the main building.

All major forces felt that their previous investigation might have been intentionally exposed by the other party.

It was also possible that these current successors of the Dawn organization, like other organizations, had long ago lost their ancestors' heritage.

Or even more likely... perhaps the real Dawn organization had long since left, and those who now claimed to be Dawn members were nothing more than scammers borrowing the name for profit.

Furthermore, as the investigation intensified, what the investigators first discovered was that various celebrity autobiographies, Noble diaries, and the Dawn history of the modern era regarding the Dawn organization were basically modern forgeries.

The forgery time would not exceed fifty years.

Those who claimed to be the successors of the Dawn organization were most likely a group of scammers who had deceived everyone for decades!

However, it was true that they were scammers.

But it was also true that the library had accumulated relevant literature with a history of several hundred years.

Facing the mysterious, no one dared to deny the rest just because a part of it was fake.

And after the investigators expanded the scale of the investigation and used a large amount of manpower and material resources to investigate and summarize these documents.

They... still could not confirm whether this organization was a skin-deep academic organization or a real extraordinary force in history.

In these true documents, there were simply too many things that were true, false, and contradictory!

Compared to searching for Dawn, it was the Holy Church that actually made a breakthrough.

Their intelligence personnel discovered that a new department of the Holy Church was recruiting the most outstanding batch of priests and nuns.

Furthermore, a bishop personally used an instrument to extract blood from between their eyebrows.

This critical step of blood extraction actually immediately triggered the nerves of all the major powers.

Through investigations into those Eastern investors in Nierbo, how could they not know that there was no lack of locals who had their blood extracted?

Even the granddaughter of a certain wizard disappeared not long after having her blood extracted, having been deemed to possess talent and recognized as the Saintess.

"The Holy Church must have a channel to contact their transcendent beings!"

"Damn it, I knew it; they are the number one religious sect, how could they not have a mysterious foundation!"
