Chapter 466: Hand Over Your Secret! Instant Kill!

"Because the Hope's remaining energy is insufficient, after this meeting with you,

I will once again enter hibernation, with the sub-artificial intelligence helping to manage things.

But you can still wake me through little Eva, though if there's nothing major, it's best not to do so."

Big Eva said softly, her slender holographic figure gradually becoming illusory.

"Understood."

Xu Jingming nodded slightly. "Goodbye, Eva."

"Goodbye, Inheritor..."

Big Eva broke into a smile, and then the already dimming holographic projection completely dissipated.

The entire control room returned to silence once more.

"I have an SSS-grade Spirit Refining Art, I have elemental weapons, and even both Liquid Gold Guards have been fully repaired.

I've even gained secrets of the ancient civilization and the starry sky — the harvest of this trip to Ruin No. 3 far exceeded my expectations.

Next, it's time to leave..."

Letting out a long breath, Xu Jingming did not touch the other things in the main control room.

His tall figure walked straight to the door and pressed the button beside it.

"This is the highest level of the No. 3 civilization ruin; the most important control room is right here.

Rumor has it that since the ruin was excavated until now, this place has never been able to be opened.

Even ninth-tier Martial Saints couldn't do anything about it — extremely mysterious."

Outside, in the great hall,

a group of more than ten white ability users were touring here.

Under the explanation of a middle-aged man, many young ability users all curiously looked around.

"The main control room! If we could open that room's door, could we then activate the entire ship?"

"I don't think it's very likely — most things on this ship have already been dismantled."

"True, but there must be good stuff inside the main control room. If only we could open it."

"..."

Many people looked at the room in the great hall with burning eyes.

Although these people came from extraordinary backgrounds,

they could be certain that if they could open this door and obtain the most critical core technology inside,

then their entire family would become even more prosperous because of it!

Boom—

Just as everyone was discussing,

accompanied by a low rumbling sound, the alloy door slowly opened to both sides.

A youth dressed in black, tall in stature, walked out from within and appeared in everyone's line of sight.

"Hmm?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and immediately, a wave of shocked cries rose up.

"f**k! What am I seeing? Someone actually walked out of the main control room!"

"Oh heavens, am I dreaming? A human from over two thousand years ago actually survived until now?"

"sh*t! So there was actually a living person hidden inside the main control room!"

"..."

Everyone widened their eyes, staring at this scene in shock, but it wasn't long before someone noticed something was off.

"Huh? Isn't he that Great Xia person who was staying with us over there before?"

"It really is him! He can actually enter the No. 3 civilization's main control room!"

"How did he do it? What exactly is inside?"

Everyone quickly recognized Xu Jingming's identity. Most of the young ability users were still just shocked and curious.

But the two seventh-tier Grandmasters in the group, beyond their shock, had a greedy glint flickering in their eyes.

Boom—

The main control room's door closed, and Xu Jingming, who had just walked out from inside, frowned.

The passive spiritual perception of Heart Net had been shielded inside the main control room.

Therefore, he had not sensed that there were already ability users here sightseeing in this great hall outside.

And to these people, he, who could enter the main control room, undoubtedly held enormous temptation!

Especially upon discovering that he was merely at the mid fifth-tier — a level that could be kneaded and shaped at will.

Sure enough, under everyone's gaze,

the moment Xu Jingming took a step, a voice rose from the side:

"This friend from Great Xia, you hold the secret to entering the main control room — leaving just like that wouldn't be appropriate, would it?"

A middle-aged white man wearing blood-red battle armor walked up from the side.

"Oh? Then what do you want?" Xu Jingming narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.

In Heart Net's passive sensing, there were two seventh-tier lower-position ability users here.

And this man was one of them.

"Tell me how you opened the main control room, and hand over everything you took from the main control room."

The red-clad middle-aged man spoke matter-of-factly in Great Xia's language, his tone full of arrogance and contempt.

"The secret of the main control room! Is Instructor Rick about to make a move?"

"Nonsense! A mere mid-tier Rank-5 ability user can be taken down with ease."

"Wouldn't this be a bit inappropriate? I heard from people in the Vanet Corps that he seems to come from some major power as well."

"Heh, he's just a male pet kept by a Rank-7 Grandmaster. If he dares disobey, just kill him outright.

We're here for training anyway, so we can just leave afterward."

"Fair point."

"......"

Seeing the leading Rank-7 ability user prepare to strike, the remaining young ability users all grew excited.

The main control room was a secret that even Rank-9 Martial Saints had no way of probing.

They never expected their luck to be this good—to run into an ability user who could open it!

"Sorry, no comment." Xu Jingming said lightly.

Golden Doushen Shenlei faintly leapt across his body's surface, ready to act at any moment.

Two lower-tier Rank-7 Grandmasters—against his current strength, dealing with them shouldn't be a problem.

"Not talking is fine too. We have psychic-type ability users on our side; we have plenty of ways to make you open your mouth."

The red-robed middle-aged man's lips curved slightly upward, and he casually said in English to one of the youths in the hall:

"Aaron, you take him on.

As long as you can subdue him, I'll waive your training quota of five Rank-5 fierce beasts."

"Waive five beasts from the quota? Teacher Rick, you're the best!"

The named youth's face lit up with joy. He shifted his steps, directly crossing more than ten meters to stand beside Rick.

He drew his battle saber, activated his ability, and instantly his entire aura changed.

A peak Rank-5 aura swept across the entire hall!

"Waiving the quota? How nice. I wish I had that kind of chance too."

"Let's wait and see. Maybe Aaron can't even subdue this Great Xia native."

"Haha, possible. After all, that guy Aaron is too weak in combat—even taking down a single upper-tier Rank-5 fierce beast is a struggle for him."

"......"

Seeing Aaron step out, the remaining young ability users began casually chatting in what seemed like a watching posture.

"You actually treated me as a training target for your family's juniors?"

Xu Jingming's gaze flickered. "Then I really want to see whether you actually have that strength! Lei Flash!"

Sizzle—

Golden Lei Guang flickered, and Xu Jingming's tall figure vanished on the spot.

Boom!

Immediately after, a tremendous sound rang out—Aaron hadn't even had time to strike.

That head still bearing a smile was directly blown apart by a spear in everyone's shocked gaze!

Blood splattered everywhere. Aaron's body crashed to the ground, and the entire hall was filled with a thick scent of blood.

"Looks like your people's strength isn't much either—not even able to take a single spear from me."

A low voice rang out.

Xu Jingming shook the spear in his hand, and the blood staining the spear tip was flung entirely onto the ground.
