Chapter 1180 603: There's Always a Higher Mountain (Part 2)
In an instant, everyone couldn't help but look at each other, incredulous. Many who had changed their identities and hidden for years shouted in anger, quickly packing their belongings, knowing they couldn't stay in this haunted place any longer.
Even more astonishing, at least four Heavenly People were suddenly revealed!
In the Central Earth Infectious Disease Medical Center, inside the operating room, an elderly doctor wearing a white coat paused for a moment during surgery. Impatiently, he glanced up at the giant eye in the sky, then quickly looked away, unconcerned.
In the basement of the Empire's Great Creation corporate headquarters, a burly man bathing in a large molten rock pool yawned entirely naked, raising his middle finger to indicate where the eye should go.
The aura of Ascension flickered for a moment under the giant eye's scrutiny, only to quickly disappear, destination unknown.
There was another... another...
Is there another?
In the midst of confusion, a thread of doubt surfaced in everyone's minds. Was there just one more? Did we see it wrong?
Probably... anyhow, it doesn't seem important.
Only Ji Jue, awakened by the repeated Sword Sound of Chun Jun, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Heart Core!
There's another Heart Core Heavenly Person, squatting in the city district of Tower City?
Isn't this absurd?!
To have a Heart Core sleeping beside one's bed is terrifying!
More terrifying is, is this really all there is?
After all, the ether's insight, though pervasive, is not completely unstoppable or undefended against.
The Mirror system, also a Heavenly People, can naturally evade detection, and deeper blockades with adequate foresight and specifications, such as Tian Yuan's repulsion, Ascension's subtle transformations, and the workshops of artisans with functions similar to a Heavenly Artisan, possess sufficient confidentiality.
It only opened a single layer...
Boom!!!
Just when the glow of the ether eye was gradually ascending, like a frog being boiled slowly, a loud bang erupted.
In the slums, in an unremarkable dilapidated factory, a thin layer of illusion shattered under vibration, followed by a bizarre Flame Light shooting skyward, rapidly expanding outward.
Like seven palms intertwined and entwined, forcibly tearing a gap in Tian Yuan's closure, then a brilliant light swept dozens of figures, dashing out.
Immediately, they crashed into an invisible iron wall, and in an instant, thunderbolts descended from the sky, forcibly tearing the light apart. Then, waves of Blood Flames rose from the garrison base, mercilessly slaughtering like slicing through vegetables and fruits, leaving everyone dumbfounded amidst the screams.
"Ho..."
Ji Jue exclaimed in surprise, "Is there really an Evil Cult?"
And indeed, it was the group he randomly guessed as the seven-handed system... It truly shows that misfortune comes from the skies while one sits at home.
If it weren't for Shekri, the bastard, daring to steal a Fusion Bomb from the Imperial Garrison Base, who knows how long this bunch could've squatted in the slums of Tower City.
Both sides were startled.
Unexpected.
At this moment, exposed without warning, they fled in panic, but alas, it was too late... Within less than two minutes, they were instantly subdued with the combined efforts of the Empire and the Federation!
Moreover, the vast majority of them were captured alive under strict orders, unable to die even if they wanted to. To die, they'd have to wait until the Empire finished interrogating them!
Above the giant eye, the gleam flowed, as striking rays appeared rapidly wherever it scanned, like arrows and annotations, leaving no trace of suspicion or possibility untouched.
Everyone who had once entered the Imperial Garrison Base or had similar aura on them was coated with a layer of high-brightness contour light.
Following this, the waiting military forces and Chosen One at all traffic arteries acted everywhere, capturing everything in sight and sending them to the concentration camp hotel to enjoy a free set meal.
Even so, it wasn't enough.
The glow within the giant eye ascended further, pressing on, overlooking even the smallest bit of earth, revealing even the worms in the ground.
Amidst the slums, the stench of Mutated Pollution was not to be mentioned, and all Chosen in the city were subjected to focused observation. The areas the ether eye hadn't penetrated also faced stronger scrutiny.
Meanwhile, it finally turned to Ji Jue.
Ji Jue continued to look at the eye in the sky, openly spreading his arms, allowing the scrutiny.
After all, he had never entered the Imperial Base. Even the slight aura he encountered when he previously approached was washed away through the techniques borrowed from the Tong family and ether-related forging, extremely clean.
Moreover, all Mutated resides within the Shadow of the Soul of Chun Jun, merely observing Ji Jue wouldn't even begin to describe him as clean, he was virtually Central Earth's sole innocence, Tower City's utmost innocency, and the Artisan Association's counted conscience over the years!
Your Empire's madness, what's it got to do with me?
Look away, watch as you please!
But that eye, even after observing Ji Jue, still lingered, fixing its gaze on his workshop.
Ji Jue made no movements, merely raised his head in silence to look back.
This demand, to some degree, seems somewhat presumptuous?
Soon, the phone rang.
A call from the Federation Military Base, Fan Yun's voice came through: "Pasarella has gone mad, don't argue with that old thing, if he wants to see, just let him see."
