Chapter 1019: Stealth!
"Sir Yue Zhong, this way please!"
After the dance, Yue Zhong was escorted towards a room under the envious gazes of the other men, led by Duanmu Bing Xue.
When he stepped into that room, he saw that the furnishing was just like a 5-star hotel back on earth, extremely luxurious and well-equipped.
He swept Duanmu Bing Xue a glance and spoke in a superior tone, "You may be dismissed, I want to rest."
Duanmu Bing Xue trembled slightly, although she was a servant in status, other than Hong Xia and the other Palace Lords, no one had dared to speak to her like this.
"Yes!"
However, she recovered quickly, responding in neither a servile nor arrogant tone, and retreated out of the room.
Once she was gone, Yue Zhong flipped his hand, and the tablet containing Bai Yi appeared.
The tablet had been constructed from the nanotechnology obtained from America. It was as small as a notebook, but its capacity and computing strength had already surpassed the most powerful computer prior to the apocalypse.
With such a powerful hosting body, Bai Yi was able to exhibit even more of her abilities.
After he took it out, Yue Zhong spoke softly, "Have you already gained control of the surveillance systems here?"
Bai Yi’s image then appeared on the screen, "In this room, there’re 18 of these systems, they have already been completely blocked by me."
"Are you able to control the central computer of this Saint Lands?"
Bai Yi quickly responded, "I’m unable to. I discovered that the central computer also has a simple form of A.I. I might be stronger than it, and could assimilate it in a face-off, but there are many technicians and experts around it right now. If I were to act, they could likely interfere."
Yue Zhong frowned, "So in order to control it, we need to be near its physical site then?"
Bai Yi responded, "Yes! Furthermore, if I can assimilate that simple A.I., I think I might be able to evolve a little."
Every faction that had its legacy could not be simple. Uros had already been through so many apocalypses. Since they had survived, it was likely that they had plenty of formidable areas.
With a thought, Yue Zhong caused a clone to appear.
At the same time, he put on the Stealth Armor obtained from Xue Shi, completely isolating his presence, before getting the clone to open the door.
In that split second, his true body had already flickered out.
"Sir Yue Zhong, do you have any instructions?"
On either side of the doors, there were 2 maidservants of the Type 5 strength. They blocked the clone’s way, asking with polite smiles.
His true body shot them a glance, before leaving noiselessly.
Yue Zhong’s clone then spoke through a device controlled by Bai Yi, allowing for his voice to sound, "You’re monitoring me?"
One of them spoke gently, "Sir Yue Zhong, be appeased. We don’t have that intention. It’s just that the palace has many ladies, and you’re a man, it’s not too convenient for you to move around. We’re here on Sister Duanmu to attend to your needs. Please let us know and we’ll get it done for you."
His clone slammed the door shut in a cold voice, "No need!"
Seeing that, the 2 servants exchanged looks and smiled, continuing to guard outside his door as though watching over a prison inmate.
"She’s over here!"
After reaching the Type 7 realm, Yue Zhong’s body had undergone so many evolutions. He could easily lock onto a target within a 5-kilometer radius. It was truly almost god-like.
Other than him, with his God-Devil Body at the Second Order, no other Type 7 experts would possess a similar strength.
"Got it!"
Yue Zhong followed his senses and came to a warehouse, discovering the fairy-like Hong Xia and her trusted aide Duanmu Bing Xue embarking on one of the anti-gravity floating vehicles.
His gaze sharpened and he shot towards the vehicle noiselessly, landing on it.
"Set off!"
Following the orders of Hong Xia, the vehicle shot towards the sky, heading towards the core mountain of the Saint Lands.
After going through countless checkpoints, the vehicle came to a stop in a carpark within the mountain.
Holy Maiden Hong Xia then disembarked and brought Duanmu Bing Xue along with her towards the inner depths of the mountain.
Yue Zhong maintained a distance of about 5 steps behind them, just like a ghost. At this distance, if he were to burst forth with his strength, it could definitely take out a Type 7 expert. This was the true terror of the Stealth Armor.
All of a sudden, Duanmu Bing Xue came to a stop, and turned around abruptly, her eyes focused in the direction of Yue Zhong’s position.
Seeing that, Yue Zhong was taken aback, and his body went taut, preparing for battle.
Hong Xia turned around and asked, "What is it, Bing Xue?"
In response, Duanmu Bing Xue frowned slightly, and said with some doubt, "It felt like there’s somebody following us, but it must be my imagination."
Holy Maiden Hong Xia turned around, and laughed confidently, "You must have imagined it. In this world, those who could move around undetected by me are almost non-existent. Even if the Saint Lord were to attack me, he would not get to a distance of 30 steps without me knowing."
Duanmu Bing Xue relaxed lightly as she grinned, and her steps became lighter, "I must be overthinking things."
Yue Zhong continued on like a specter.
This Saint Peak was the core of the Saint Lands, and its defenses were tight. There were numerous Type 5 guards stationed everywhere. Some places were even guarded by Type 6 experts. It was really marching into the lion’s den. If Yue Zhong did not have the Stealth Armor, he would have to slaughter his way in.
Hong Xia’s charm was incredible, along the way, almost all the guards and experts were staring at her with their passion and lust apparent.
Since their attention was on her, no one discovered Yue Zhong following behind her.
The party continued forward, finally coming into a palace within the Saint Peak.
The Saint Lord was seated on the crystal throne, waiting.
Below him, there were the 2 Holy Sons and 1 Holy Maiden.
Holy Maiden Hong Xia came to her seat, and asked the Saint Lord, "Your Majesty, what do you think about Yue Zhong’s suggestion?"
The Saint Lord was exuding a terrifying aura as he snorted coldly, his killing intent spreading out, "Hmph! Yue Zhong dares to set his sight on our capital, he deserves death!"
"Strong!! This damned old man should be at the Type 7 realm."
Yue Zhong stood behind Hong Xia and could feel the might of that aura. His heart ran cold, at the same time, he was also filled with a killing intent. Since the Saint Lord dared to kill him, there were no more burdens in his heart. As long as there was a chance, he would deal them a vicious blow.
The Ghost Dragon Saint Child, or Holy Son Gui Long, frowned slightly, "Yue Zhong was able to defeat Wang Cheng in a single move, his strength is not be underestimated. He could likely be a Type 7 expert."
The Saint Lord laughed coldly, "The Oracle truly is not simple. He should be a Type 7 expert, yes. However, based on Zhang Xuan’s report, he should have only just recently ascended. Once night falls, I’ll join you guys to go crush this bastard that dares belittle our Saint Lands. No matter how strong he is, if the 5 of us join hands, as long as he’s not a Type 8 expert, we can definitely crush him. At that time, all of his things will be ours."
The voices of the 4 Saint Children rang out in unison and respect, "Your Majesty is wise!"
Hearing that, Yue Zhong’s back broke out in cold sweat, "How vicious and decisive!! If I had not snuck over here, I would have fallen at their hands!"
After Yue Zhong reached the Type 7 realm, his strength had really undergone huge changes. If any Type 7 expert were to engage him, even if he could not defeat them, he could escape. However, under the circumstances of being caught unprepared, the sudden sneak attack of 5 Type 7 experts would be able to take him out.
The eyes of the Saint Lord flashed with greed, his heart bursting with anticipation, "After we suppress this Type 7 Oracle, I will take his God-Devil Nucleus and God and Devil Imprint to push through the Type 7 bottleneck. Once I reach the ancient Type 8 realm, I’ll be invincible, and live up to a 1,000 years!!"
Evolution was a difficult process, even the Saint Lord, who had been a genius at cultivation, reaching the Type 7 realm after a 100 years, was still stuck after 200 years. He could feel his age catching up slowly every day. If he did not breakthrough soon, he had another 50 years left at most. He feared death greatly, thus, seeing Yue Zhong’s appearance, he was filled with greed. He truly wanted everything about Yue Zhong’s, just so he could evolve and live longer.
