Transcendent Dawn - Chapter 534
Chapter 534: Chapter 0534: Ocean (8600 supplementary, requesting monthly ticket)
In the coffee shop, inside a private booth.
Bai Ling clasped her hands together, “I’m sorry, uncle. As you know, my mom has always been… well, it would be incredibly awkward if you visited our home.”
“I understand, I understand!”
Su Lu held up a white glazed coffee cup and gently sipped from it, “The entrance exams are coming up. Are you confident?”
“Of course! I must get admitted to the East City Mysterious Academy.”
Bai Ling clenched her fist tightly.
“Very good, I believe you can definitely do it.”
Anyway, with Li Weiwei handling things, it would be difficult for Bai Ling not to get in. Su Lu continued, “I won’t be able to accompany you during the exams, I have other engagements.”
“What kind of engagement?” Bai Ling’s eyes lit up, “Is Han Fan coming back to East City for the first time since he left, is it because of the Sea Beast?”
“Kids, don’t ask questions you shouldn’t.”
Su Lu chuckled and flicked the air, and Bai Ling covered her forehead and sat back down, visibly annoyed.
“Anyway, I will probably miss your entrance exam this time, but, I can give you a gift in advance.”
Su Li, smiling, slid a gift box to her.
But this time, Bai Ling wasn’t excited. Instead, she worriedly asked, “Is there any danger?”
“In this era, danger can arise from any direction.”
Su Lu replied with a shrug.
He felt that Huang Minghao and his network had been tolerating him for a while, and recently he noticed a certain ‘enough is enough’ atmosphere.
But in his eyes, they were nothing more than a bunch of clowns.
‘However… It’s surprising that the development of Transcendents in this world is progressing so rapidly. This is not good news for me.’
When Su Lu ascended to godhood, the Fifth Level Professionals barely had the strength to face him. This was an unpredictable factor!
‘Considering… If the world realizes it cannot distort my control using curses, has it turned to supporting some Transcendent seeds?’
This was also why Su Lu agreed to attend the East Sea Conference. There were too many top professionals, a portion needed to be eliminated.
If Huang Minghao decided to act against him, it would provide the perfect opportunity!
‘Before I ascend to godhood, let me remove some obstacles first.’
Su Lu’s eyes were cold.
Bai Ling suddenly shivered, feeling that her once-benevolent uncle seemed somewhat terrifying.
…
Three days later, East Sea.
A giant, fantasy-style battleship was sailing in the deep sea.
On its deck, scattered were dozen people, as if at a banquet, each emitting a powerful aura.
“This time, SkyNet has gathered ten professionals ranked within the world’s top hundred, which must have cost a significant amount…”
Holding a cocktail, Han Fan quietly observed the scene.
Though the Summer Country held an advantage in the Transcendent tide thanks to its large population and fortune, Fifth Level Professionals were not easily found.
This time, they deployed more than half, which certainly was a huge expenditure.
Besides the guardians of some important cities, if any monster beasts broke through the blockade, it would be up to the third and fourth level Professionals, along with a massive army, to desperately resist.
‘I wonder… who will the East City Mysterious Academy send…’
Han Fan sighed inwardly, ‘Although the instructional quality has declined, there are still many talented and powerful individuals hidden within. The college harbors a significant amount of Beast Emperor level fliers…’
To build alliances with demons and harbor ill-intentions was the accusation Huang Minghao leveled against Su Lu.
At this point, there was already a deep-seated conflict between the two parties that was irreconcilable. It was only a matter of time before a battle would break out.
‘Unfortunately… No matter which side wins, it is more a curse than a blessing.’
Han Fan licked his lips and looked at a small group.
It comprised of Zi, Wang Chaoqun, and Liu Xiaodang.
Their expressions were solemn as they watched the sea.
All of sudden, all Fifth Level Professionals set their sights on an empty area of the deck.
There, space twisted and folded into the form of a door, from which a young man emerged.
“The Spirit King!”
Many people gasped as the alarm was deactivated.
“What’s going on?” Han Fan was also slightly surprised, ” Looking at his previous performance, he should have, as usual, sent someone as a token of appeasement. Why did he show up in person this time?”
“The alarm is off, Transcendents like these, with no sense of discipline at all – they are truly detestable!” Inside the commanding room deep within the battleship, Huang Minghao shook his head coldly.
“Teacher!”
“Principal Bai!”
Liu Xiaodang and Zi hurriedly approached, “I didn’t expect you to come here personally.”
“The establishment of a monster kingdom in the ocean concerns the future of all humans on Blue Star. Of course, I had to come.” Su Lu replied with a righteous tone.
The other Professionals also stepped forward, flattering him with the title “Spirit King”.
Even if he had been ousted from the throne of world’s first, Su Lu was still the undisputed first in the Summer Country. Furthermore, he had admirers scattered all across the world, and countless fans.
That all came from founding the first Mysterious Academy, with enough resources to last for decades!
“Everyone, please, you needn’t be so formal. Zi, it’s been a while.”
Su Lu looked at the female Telekineticist in front of him. Zi had matured a lot over the past decade, and emanated a charming aura. On hearing his words, she just smiled, “With the Spirit King’s arrival, our chances of success have significantly improved.”
“What’s the plan?”
Su Lu looked at the deck, “Why does it feel like a cocktail party?”
“Our main task is to find the King of the Surfing Fish People, decapitate him, and deal with the other Beast Emperors… As for the plan, that’s a matter for the United Nation’s staff. For this operation, they’ve decided to invest massive human and material resources to launch a large-scale encirclement operation against the deep-sea Fish People, to cover our actions.”
Zi casually described the situation.
Su Lu was all too aware that this indicated the commencement of another large-scale war between humans and monsters.
In it, countless ships and personnel, even Transcendents, would be lost.
“According to the agreement, we will meet with the western Transcendents over the ocean and form a peak team consisting of over thirty Fifth Level Professionals.”
Zi took a deep breath.
This was all the high-level combat power that could be mobilized worldwide.
It seemed that every country was unwilling to see the formation and development of a foreign kingdom.
“Oh?”
Su Lu’s expression moved slightly, “Is Thunder God coming?”
“Of course, he is the leader of the western team. Also, ‘Professor’, ‘Phoenix Girl’, and ‘Great Magician’ will be among others…”
‘Professor’ was ranked fifth in the world and was a Telekineticist.
‘Phoenix Girl’, ranking eighth, held a profession close to a Druid, specializing in transformation. Supposedly, she possessed the bloodline of monster beasts and could temporarily transform into the Flame God Bird, similar to the Phoenix of Western legend, as a result of human experimentation.
“Is Little Gill also coming?”
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Su Lu’s mouth. He seemed to recall the fanatical Harry fan who had once been curious why he wasn’t an old grandfather.
