Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Everyone, since both Li Fu, the world’s most powerful expert, and Li Yuanzhu, the third most powerful expert in the world are here, why can’t you wait one more night?” Ren Baqian smiled and didn’t explain all the details.
Actually, he couldn’t explain.
When the time came and the treasure was taken out, they would know how to decide.
The truth is always more powerful than words.
“When the sun rises tomorrow, you will see the outcome. You can say whatever you want to say then!”
“Is this event set up by you?” Many people were angry that they had been deceived by a person who wasn’t even a Spirit Wheel expert.
“I’m the person behind this. Do you have any opinions?” The empress stood beside Ren
Baqian, her eyes glared coldly at the gathering, and her stance was threatening. The
message was that she would instantly kill anyone who dared to object.
“Qi Zixiao, even if you are the ruler of Dayao, you still have to give us a satisfactory explanation after so many people have been deceived. We will see how you are going to settle this!” someone shouted.
As Ren Baqian said, Li Fu, Li Yuanzhu, and Qi Zixiao were here waiting, therefore this
must be an important matter. Otherwise, Li Fu and Li Yuanzhu wouldn’t be waiting quietly.
Although Ren Baqian wasn’t a top expert, he must have an important reason to be able to
get these three here.
Anyway, these people had traveled thousands of miles, so what was the problem with waiting one more night?
They were only feeling resentful because they had been deceived.
Ren Baqian gave a strange smile and replied, “I will definitely give everyone a satisfactory explanation. However, I would like to remind everyone to withdraw 25 kilometers away from the center, which is southwest of here. If anything were to happen, don’t blame me for not informing you.”
There was an awkward silence.
Everyone was speechless.
A moment later, an old beggar entered the darkness.
This person, the Gluttonous Duke, was ranked the twenty-ninth most powerful expert in the world.
“Chief, what tricks are they playing?” Zhuo Chi asked softly from one side.
“Just see what happens next.” Lin Dong sat by the fireside. “Get them to retreat 25 kilometers.”
“Chief, do you really believe him?” Zhuo Chi was astonished.
“There’s no harm in listening to him. If he can’t give a proper explanation tomorrow morning, many will flare up. However, looking at the situation, they will not have the chance to do so!” Lin Dong smirked.
Everyone around had sharp ears and eyes. Although Lin Dong didn’t speak loudly, they heard him clearly.
After Zhuo Chi received the order to retreat, several people disappeared into the dark.
Subsequently, everyone else just waited.
They were waiting to see what would happen the next morning.
Ren Baiqan stood up and immediately aroused the attention of many people.
Ren Baqian walked directly to a tent and ordered through a walkie-talkie, “Move the thing over as instructed.”
He returned to his original position with the walkie-talkie in his hand as many people stared at him. They saw him speaking to it earlier and were wondering what it was.
However, nobody asked since they could find out later.
The empress and Ren Baqian didn’t talk as they snuggled together. The rest also sat there in silence as they pondered.
The night simply passed by, and before dawn, those who had left now returned.
When the first ray of light emerged from the sky, everyone opened their eyes to look at Ren Baqian.
Their gazes were filled with vigilance and curiosity.
The time had come, and they wanted to see how this guy would explain to them.
The mystery would be unraveled, and it would explain why Li Fu and Li Yuanzhu were here.
Ren Baqian rose up from the floor, stretched in front of everybody, picked up the walkie-talkie, and asked, “Are the people back?”
“They have just reached the base of the mountain.” A buzzing voice was heard from the walkie-talkie.
“Bring up one red, one blue, and three green boxes. Open the other boxes on the spot and get ready.” After issuing these orders, Ren Baqian looked at the crowd and said, “Everyone, it’s going to start soon, but before that, it’s better to make some preparations. Otherwise…”
Since it was going to start soon and it would be useless to say too much, Ren Baqian didn’t continue.
If anyone wanted to look directly at the nuclear bomb exploding, he could only hope that their eyes were strong enough.
As a matter of fact, the radiation and particles at this range were lethal to ordinary people.
However, it didn’t affect those who were Earth Wheel experts and above.
They were strong enough to withstand it.
Not long after, the boxes were brought up and opened one by one.
One box contained metal equipment with screens and buttons. There were also eight antennas on the side.
This was the remote control, and in this world that didn’t have too much radio interference, it was able to reach a range of 50 kilometers.
The red box contained dozens of masks with black lenses over the eye positions.
Inside the green boxes were white coats.
The preparation this time was more thorough than for the smaller nuclear bombs from before.
“Everybody, put these on!” Ren Baqian took a mask and fastened it on the face of the empress. Then, he put on a white coat for her and did the same thing for himself.
“What are these for?” The crowd stared coldly at him.
“It would be best to follow what I do if you do not want to suffer from various kinds of illnesses for the rest of your life. Of course, someone may want to set a bad example and let others see the consequences of not taking precautions,” Ren Baqian said casually.
Li Yuanzhu was the first to follow Ren Baqian’s example and dressed up Ning Qing and herself.
Ren Baqian glanced over and felt that Li Yuanzhu should be given an award for being the best caregiver.
Li Fu mumbled to himself, “This little fellow is so cautious this time, and this precaution doesn’t seem to be a trivial matter. He has brought out many weird gadgets that it’s better to listen to what he says.”
Shortly after, he followed suit.
The crowd silently picked up the masks and coats, examined them, and then wore them in the same way.
“Are the people below ready?” Ren Baqian asked through the walkie-talkie.
“They are wearing those things.”
“For all the students, this is the final lesson for the fourth year students and also the most important lesson for the other students. I’m going to show you how much humans can achieve and let you understand what you can do with what you have learned!” Ren Baqian slowly said through the walkie-talkie.
The students looked at each other as the voice came out of the walkie-talkie. They already knew long ago what they could achieve.
However, after seeing that Yagui was so serious this time, they felt that this event was going to be extraordinary.
On the mountain, Ren Baqian pressed a button on the remote control beside him and looked into the distance.
Everyone else also looked in the same direction.
Far away, there was an incomprehensible scene as another sun suddenly jumped out on the horizon.
It was as if time had been accelerated innumerable times!
