Chapter 374: The Demands of the Original, You Are Not Worthy

The dark-faced man's memories were forcibly read under Su Ping's divine sense.

Su Ping subsequently learned that this fellow was named Santos Kahn.

As a capable hired thug, he had always worked for a large intermediary studio.

And the owner of that studio was named Duoer Kahn.

He was the person in charge of this Dungeon, appointed by Kahn Military Industry, a well-known major enterprise of the Kaluo Federation, to represent the company.

The dark-faced man had encountered many similar missions, and because of this, he had become a trusted aide to that Duoer Kahn.

Therefore, he understood some of the relevant truth to a certain extent.

This allowed Su Ping to realize that his general direction of speculation had not been wrong.

It was indeed because of Kalosis's identity as an explorer of the Other-dimensional Space that this trouble had been drawn.

Su Ping released his hand, letting the dark-faced man, who had already become an idiot, slide limply onto the cold floor.

As for the restaurant's surveillance, and even the surveillance that might exist in the surrounding area, regardless of whether it was damaged or not, he chose to take control of it, and he resisted his curiosity, firmly deciding not to watch it.

He still felt no fear.

After all, what era was this; he did not believe that no matter how powerful individual strength was, it could be of any use.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Duoer Kahn, he began to listen to Duoer Kahn's report.

Afterwards, they only saw the dark-faced man and the open window.

"If one thing is not handled well, what I might be facing is the alliance of powerful Nobles of the entire Kaluo Federation."

"Fine, it seems I have already not handled it well, and it is time to start a cat-and-mouse game."

Su Ping looked at the drooling dark-faced man, then looked at the clamor in the distance.

Using extraordinary power to confront a group of ordinary people.

These people saw the tragic state of the surroundings and hurriedly took out their weapons and raised their shields before rushing upstairs.

Boom!

A loud noise suddenly came from the entire floor.

It was just that the maintenance costs and the level of care in the Dungeon Civilian District were clearly well-matched with the street blocks.

This was an old butler from a certain Noble's household.

Su Ping gave a self-deprecating smile, feeling not the slightest bit of fear toward this.

It made Duoer Kahn, this handsome-looking red-haired gentleman, unable to help but tremble.

Even within these few short minutes.

The real security officers of the Dungeon finally arrived.

Duoer Kahn had already conceived eight plans in his mind to deal with such an individual with powerful strength.

"The original body really did bring me some small trouble."

However.

From the day the Kaluo Federation was established, they had already known that compared to strength, what the avengers lacked more was actually intelligence.

Then, Duoer Kahn opened the video communication.

"Not just a mental talent, but also a talent in terms of strength?"

It was just that this report had only just begun, and it was mentioning the dark-faced man's mission failure.

Even if the opponent had decent technological strength and organizational level.

Just after picking it up, Duoer Kahn's expression changed upon hearing the busy signal.

Those official surveillance systems had long since been broken or were not turned on.

At the same time.

Duoer Kahn learned the news earlier than the security officers, and after cursing the dark-faced man for being useless, he immediately looked for someone to understand what exactly had happened.

Without intelligence support, an individual with only strength would ultimately just fall into a trap like a wild beast and be overwhelmed by superior numbers.

Duoer Kahn whispered, regarding the display of the target's non-human power.

The Captain leading the team immediately realized the complexity of the situation.

After waiting for a while, Duoer Kahn could only see his subordinates' fancy performance of flying out of the restaurant from the surveillance cameras across from the restaurant.

Located on a certain floor within one of the few high-rise buildings in the Dungeon was the Kahn Military Industry Dungeon Office.

More than ten minutes later.

And he decided to report the situation to his superiors immediately, then chose to maintain the scene.

This time, the communication screen showed a spirited, rosy-faced green-haired old man.

"No, we might have been invaded!"

In the three hundred years of Federation history, it was not as if there had been no incidents of enhanced humans rebelling or even wanting revenge.

Su Ping, however, was clearer about how great an advantage he had as an extraordinary being.

Somewhat annoyed, he picked up the landline phone connected to the front desk.

"Invaded?"

The old man in the video frowned slightly and guessed;

"Could it be that those few families couldn't hold back and dared to make a move against our office?"

"No, if it were them, my communication with you should have been blocked as well!"

The old butler discovered the blind spot.

And in the next second, he saw the answer.

The door handle of the glass door to Duoer Kahn's office was violently twisted off.

And then, the door opened.

A tall young man wearing a black trench coat and biting on a skewer walked in.

This person... the old butler could only barely recognize from his facial features that he resembled the target, Kalosis.

It was just that he looked much more handsome than that previous Kalosis.

"It seems I've come at quite a convenient time."

Su Ping swept his gaze over the screen projection on the desk and saw that old butler reveal a smile.

The black-faced man also had memories of that old butler in his own memory.

It was just that in those memories, when the black-faced man faced the other party, he didn't even dare to speak, existing like an ant.

He only knew that the other party was an Elite trusted by the nobles, a big shot who could decide his life or death with a single word.

"Kalosis!"

Duoer Kahn and the old butler shouted the name of Su Ping's physical body in unison.

At the same time, Duoer Kahn pressed the alarm button.

However, the security guards who were on duty twenty-four hours a day in the security department did not appear.

Even... the two unmanned wheeled security robots he had spent a high price to deploy in the security department also did not appear.

Thinking of a certain possibility, Duoer Kahn opened his mouth wide but dared not speak it out loud.

Su Ping saw what the other party was thinking in his heart.

Being merciful, he nodded, confirming that the other party had guessed correctly.

"Your defensive strength here is even worse than I imagined."

"You must be Duoer Kahn, the person in charge of Kahn Military Industry here."

"I heard you were looking for me, so I came first."

"Arrogant!"

Hearing this, the old butler in the video could not help but curse out loud.

Duoer Kahn, however, was breaking out in cold sweat, cursing the bastard in his heart.

You old immortal are safe and sound in the surface metropolis, but... I am the one facing this monster head-on!

"Wait! Let's talk this over properly. I think you, Mr. Kalosis, might have a slight misunderstanding about our Kahn Military Industry!"

"You must also be confused about your own power; we can..."

Before Duoer Kahn could finish his sentence, he saw Kalosis appear in front of him as if by teleportation and directly open his large hand to grab his face.

Duoer Kahn wanted to struggle a bit, but he fainted the instant he made contact with the palm.

"I am not confused, nor do I have any misunderstandings."

Su Ping grabbed Duoer Kahn, but looked at the old butler on the screen:

"Whether I am arrogant or not is not something an old man like you who is about to die can define."

Su Ping's words made the old butler tremble all over with rage, his hands and feet turning ice-cold from anger.

How many years had it been? How many years had it been since he heard someone speak to him in such a tone?

Ever since he became the head butler of the Kahn Family, even those nobles would be gentle and polite to him.

This old butler had already sentenced the other party to death in his heart.

However, before that, the old butler sneered and asked:

"You have already displayed your abilities."

"State your demands, Kalosis."

"The special abilities you are showing now are enough to make you a new Elite or even a noble."

"Our Kahn Group can provide you with assistance in this regard; we could completely become allies."

"..."

The old butler naturally would not truly choose reconciliation; he was merely gambling that the other party was just a Commoner who had no idea of the real reason why the nobles were dealing with him.

At the same time, becoming an Elite should be one of the greatest obsessions in the life of anyone born a Commoner.

Given Kalosis's background and the environment in which he grew up.

The old butler felt his rhetoric hit the nail on the head and would make the other party fall into the trap voluntarily.

However, very soon... the old butler's expression changed drastically.

Even though the connection was interrupted, Kalosis's disdainful, mocking face and words still echoed in his mind:

"Demands?"

"Hahaha! My demands? You are not worthy, and the entire Kahn Group is not worthy either!"

"He is dead meat!"

"No! He will be subjected to endless torture day and night in a cultivation pod! Fainting will be a lifelong delusion for him!"

The old butler was stunned for a full half-minute before he suddenly came back to his senses.

Realizing he had lost his composure, he fell into a state of impotent rage.

In the office, Su Ping adjusted the office equipment and began to read the memories of Duoer Kahn, the person in charge.

This was Su Ping's best choice as an individual to supplement his lack of intelligence.

In Duoer Kahn's memories.

Su Ping saw a part of the truth:

It was a remote meeting that Duoer Kahn and many other administrative personnel had the fortune to participate in.

In the remote meeting room, dozens of nobles gathered together, laughing and cursing as they decided the direction of one major event after another.

They decided the fate of thousands upon thousands of people.

Then, they began to talk about those people who had participated in the Other-dimensional Space, did not have the Awakening Factor, and were thus sent home as propaganda examples.

"The number of these people is already large enough."

"In terms of publicity, a thousand of these people don't compare to creating one icon."

"Why don't we establish an organization specifically to handle these dregs?"

"It can also be considered the Waste Utilization Plan."

"Waste utilization? It sounds good; they were selected, so at least in the eyes of the Gene Research Institute, they have the possibility of awakening."

"Let us conduct various experiments; perhaps we can find a new path?"

"Hahaha, if that's the case, we will be the pioneers of a new era!"

Saying this, agreement came from the majority of people around.

Another meeting regarding the unawakened personnel after a period of time.

In the same environment, Duoer Kahn learned of the failure of the Waste Utilization Plan without any surprise.

However, the plan did not end because of this.

"Having invested so many resources, are you willing to just give up like this?"

"We are not willing, and those above are likely not willing either."

"After all, we did detect Awakening Factor in the organs of some target individuals, although it was so little that it had almost no experimental or practical value."

"So, it would be better for the Kahn Group to take over; let's treat this as a game to play."

"After all, everyone should believe by now that the Research Institute's research is completely useless."

"Therefore, even I cannot judge whether the organs of a certain target individual contain Awakening Factor, or what the concentration might reach."

"How about it? Doesn't this look fairer and more full of luck than the gambling games we usually play?"

"And, most importantly, our game has a theoretically possible ultimate grand prize!"

"Discovering a new path to awakening!"

…………

Su Ping finished reading this memory.

After a light chuckle, he opened the office safe.

He saw a large amount of cash and gold inside.

Gold, as a natural currency.

Also serves as a universal equivalent in the Kaluo Federation.

Su Ping took it all without any hesitation.

Afterwards, he changed out of the ill-fitting clothes he was wearing, found a new set of clothes in the cloakroom next to the office to put on, and only then walked out of the building as if nothing had happened.

As he stepped out, Su Ping noticed two cars following him from behind, and malice was coming from people inside the cars.

Su Ping took out two metal coins.

The moment he strode out the door, the two metal coins transformed into two metal jets and struck the two cars.

They instantly pierced the car bodies, and the high temperature ignited the fuel tanks.

This caused a booming explosion and astonishing firelight to erupt behind Su Ping instantly.

However, real men never look back at explosions.

Under the gasps of passersby, Su Ping disappeared at the intersection shortly after.

In the Dungeon Civilian District, there were hundreds of gangs of various sizes.

They saw the bounty on Kalosis.

At the same time, as the matter grew larger, the Kahn Group could no longer cover the sky with one hand.

The existence of the special individual Kalosis became known to a large number of Nobles.

Then, these big shots, who had long known or heard rumors about part of the situation.

Could not help but rebuke this kind of game on the surface.

In terms of actual action, however, they agreed to the proposal from the Kahn Group representative.

To dispatch elite mobile forces to capture Kalosis alive if possible.

In the span of one night, twenty Mobile Task Forces were dispatched from various bases and arrived at the Dungeon Civilian District to search for Kalosis.

Security forces and large-scale detection equipment were also activated and began to be deployed zone by zone.

Just waiting for Kalosis to appear again, so that he would have nowhere to escape under the Heavenly Net!

At this time, Su Ping took the initiative to find a gang stronghold that had cooperated closely with Duoer Kahn many times.

After clearing out the lackeys inside and using the Duoer Kahn Secret Language to lure the opposing high-level and core personnel over to eliminate them all.

Su Ping used cash to have the lowest-level thugs, who knew nothing, help buy batch after batch of food.

Then, right there in the stronghold, he ate and drank to his heart's content, desperately trying to become stronger.

While silently waiting for the Kaluo Federation's counterattack to arrive.

The official in charge of this operation for the Kaluo Federation began to regret that the infrastructure in the Civilian District was too poor.

Leaving them only able to rely on primitive screening to find that Kalosis.

Of course, although there were some difficulties.

This official was still very confident about finding Kalosis.

After all, there were so many people and so many machines.

Even if that guy could fly to the heavens or burrow into the earth, he would be found by them!
