Chapter 726: Blue Blood
Chapter 726: Blue Blood
Stepping out of the flying ship was a man in his thirties, wearing sunglasses, with distinct facial features, and a tall, slender build. He was dressed in a refined black formal suit, and on his wrist, he wore a silver vintage pocket watch.
Once outside, he removed his sunglasses, revealing deep blue eyes and high cheekbones.
His hair was a simple, sleek black-brown short cut, and his entire aura was restrained and profound, making others feel cautious in his presence.
Below the flying ship and in the distance, numerous Linaksis Federation fighters awaited, and upon seeing this man, they couldn't help but show excitement and admiration in their eyes.
As the man descended from the connecting bridge, the welcoming staff approached respectfully and politely said, "Mr. Wilhelm, welcome."
Wilhelm responded with grace.
His voice had a slightly lower tone, filled with rich emotion and charisma, clearly indicating a well-educated individual.
At this moment, it would be difficult for others to imagine that this man with a strong aristocratic air was the third-limit fighter, Wilhelm Tarasa, ranked within the top thirty in the world.
He was born into the royal nobility of the old dynasty in the Western Continent. Although the old dynasty had been overthrown, most of the nobility had taken refuge in the Fusion Zone, but he had not left; instead, he had retreated to the Linaksis Federation.
Here, he was still well-received by the upper class, and he was also the legitimate heir to the Vanh Stream, one of the original fighting styles of the Western Continent.
Wilhelm glanced at the area where the Union personnel were gathered and asked, "Gentlemen, have our Union partners already departed?"
The reception manager replied, "Yes, they left two days ago, including Mr. Euseios Hross."
Wilhelm raised his eyebrows and said seriously, "I hope I won't have to clean up the mess, no one likes extra work plans."
The accompanying crowd couldn't help but smile, and a few carefree security soldiers even laughed out loud.
However, they only smiled and didn't say anything further. The Union delegation not only had a group of powerful fighters but also included Euseios Hross, who was also ranked within the top thirty in the world. Moreover, this man was said to be very vengeful and petty.
So, while Wilhelm could speak freely, they couldn't join in with their opinions.
Of course, this was also because they were in a camp primarily built by the Union, where they were constantly monitored by the field screen. But once inside their own barracks, they didn't care about such things.
At this moment, the welcoming manager bowed slightly and made a gesture filled with etiquette, inviting Wilhelm.
"Mr. Wilhelm, we have prepared accommodations for you in advance. Please follow us."
Wilhelm nodded and followed him towards the camp.
In the distance, within the Union delegation's camp, the security manager, Renouva, and his subordinates were observing every move and listening in on all their conversations.
Suddenly, they saw Wilhelm turn his head and look in their direction as he walked.
When he appeared on the field screen, everyone felt as if he was looking directly at them, and their hearts skipped a beat involuntarily.
At this moment, everyone felt an urge to escape his gaze, but they managed to remain still with great effort.
"Blue Blood..." Renouva muttered, staring at Wilhelm as he walked towards the Linaksis Federation's living area, surrounded by his security detail.
As they entered the camp, the interference creatures took effect, and the field screen quickly became blurry.
However, even with this, the oppressive feeling Wilhelm's arrival brought remained. After a while, someone spoke up, unwilling to accept defeat, "It's just that Mr. Hross isn't here. If he were..."
Manager Renouva waved his hand dismissively and said, "Ah, Mr. Hross is busy with his work, and we shouldn't disturb him. Our Blue Blood sir was born noble, and I hope he can take many commemorative photos during his few days in the Fusion Zone. It seems we overlooked something, as we didn't have time to prepare the polo field he prefers."
Everyone laughed, and the previous gloomy atmosphere instantly lightened.
Manager Renouva turned around, his back to the field screen, and instructed everyone, "We need you to monitor his every move, including every word he says outside."
"Yes, sir!"
At this moment, Wilhelm had already reached the comfortable and spacious room provided to him in the camp. He poured himself a cup of fragrant hot drink and carried the porcelain plate to the window.
Seeing the excavator clearing piles of insect corpses from the ground, Wilhelm said to the manager behind him, "It rained yesterday, bringing these creatures. If we don't deal with them promptly, they will pollute our camp."
Wilhelm continued, "The surprises of the Fusion Zone are everywhere. Although the sky here is as gloomy as the sky of New Rhine, the difference in the biological community makes me think of the people of this land. I've heard they are very resilient, like wild grass, thriving and numerous."
The team leader smiled and said, "To deal with wild grass, we just need to uproot it, and it won't grow back next year."
Wilhelm grunted and took a sip of his hot drink, "But we still need them now, don't we?"
"Yes," the leader agreed, "because of the threat from those things over there, their existence is still meaningful for now."
Wilhelm looked towards the distant dense forest, "I don't seem to have heard that the Great Harmony government has dispatched any powerful Fighters for this operation."
"The Great Harmony's Fighters are not keen on international rankings, and it's possible that this is by their government's intention. Their strength is very opaque, and many Fighters can only be accurately judged when faced with them."
For example, this time we encountered Xu Chan, who was originally ranked between one hundred and two hundred, and now the Union has raised his ranking by fifty."
Wilhelm said, "I'm not sure if I should be envious of Mr. Euseios Hross. Such an opponent is indeed a rare sight."
The leader comforted him, "Great Harmony is so vast; I believe there will be opponents that meet your expectations."
"I hope so."
At this moment, Yang Yongcheng had already brought Chen Chuan to the hillside below, approaching within a four-kilometer range.
He looked outside and said, "Manager Chen, we can only get this far. We can't move any closer. The last time I was here, I was mysteriously discovered, and I don't know what method they used."
Fortunately, I left in time, and since I'm familiar with the area, I was able to retreat. If I had left any later, I might have been stuck here."
Chen Chuan looked around, "It's probably Field Monitoring."
Yang Yongcheng was a bit surprised, "Field Monitoring with a four-kilometer range?" He glanced outside, "Can a portable Field Creature do that?"
He sighed and said, "It seems that technology has advanced greatly. The portable Field Creatures I've seen in the past could only cover an area of about one kilometer."
Chen Chuan stood at this angle and looked outside again. From above, it wasn't very intuitive, but now he could see that the road leading to the camp had not only fire points but also intersecting trenches and staggered metal barricades.
These were to prevent Fighters from using speed to break through. With these obstacles, it might not be a hundred percent effective, but just a few seconds of delay would be enough for those inside to react.
But these weren't much of a problem for him. What he needed to ensure was how to kill every powerful Fighter inside, preferably by figuring out the location of each one.
Although he could try to find his opponents through Mind Collision, the camp was large enough, and many people probably had protective gear, which would not give him enough feedback. To accurately locate each target would require a bit more effort.
He thought for a moment and communicated with Red Fluff through his psychic consciousness.
"Red Fluff, if I ask you to observe the Fighters in the camp, will it consume your strength?"
Red Fluff responded within his psychic consciousness, "Just observing the target's life force won't consume much of my strength."
Chen Chuan said, "Good, then help me take a look."
Red Fluff responded, and the red scarf around her body fluttered. Suddenly, the Dimensional Token, which theoretically should have no information, showed signs of activity, and new information appeared.
This included the camp's layout and situation, and most importantly, the life force of every notable person in the camp was displayed on the Dimensional Token. Surprisingly, most of the life forces were not very strong, with only a few worth noting.
Such enemies would be sufficient in normal circumstances, but to venture into the Fusion Zone, they were clearly lacking. Therefore, most of the camp's main forces should be in an unknown area at this moment.
However, as more content about the camp appeared, he made a new discovery. Deep within the camp, among the many life forces, there was one with an incredibly intense field of light, more intense than any Third Limit Fighter he had ever encountered.
After observing for a moment, Chen Chuan said to Yang Yongcheng, "Mr. Yang, I have some things to do here. You should head back first."
Yang Yongcheng asked, "Manager Chen, are you sure?"
Chen Chuan confirmed, "I am."
Yang Yongcheng guessed that Chen Chuan was entrusted with an important task. Having been a member of the Pioneer Squad, he was a disciplined soldier who understood that tasks assigned by higher-ups were to be taken seriously. He said solemnly, "Alright, I'll head back first. Manager Chen, please be careful!"
Chen Chuan nodded.
Yang Yongcheng added, "Manager Chen, I'll be waiting for you at the hillside I came from. Before nightfall, please make sure to return." After saying this, he saluted Chen Chuan and quickly retreated the way they had come.
After Yang Yongcheng left, Chen Chuan's deep gaze turned towards the distance, "Before nightfall? I don't need that much time."
