Chapter 184 - Chaotic City
Shortly after Albion had his cultivation unsealed for resealing it again, a pair of twins had shot outside the Eastern Allure Auction to investigate the source of the energy surge.
However, no one seemed to have noticed them as they moved inside their camouflage barrier.
"The trace of True Immortal disappeared again, Ceone," Cetwo reported after checking the energy readings have returned to stable levels.
As the two female regulators hover in the sky, Ceone observed the location of the energy surge before her gaze fell on Albion's figure.
"It's that telekinesis-user again?" Ceone furrowed her brows and said, "This person's Soul Strength does not match the True Immortal's level, but why is he at the location of the energy surged? How suspicious—"
Swish—!
The person threw a rock at hypersonic speed!
Ceone and Cetwo were suddenly stunned by Albion's display of brute strength before they glanced at each other for a moment.
"The telekinesis-user's physical strength has far exceeded the level of the strongest humans of Earth, the Four Emperor Hunters… Target's probability of being True Immortal has sharply risen by 20%," Ceone spoke.
Nevertheless, the two regulators were puzzled.
"Report; no additional information found on the Hunter Ranking—Oh?" Cetwo suddenly discovered something on her holographic device before she continued to report, "Target shows close connection with Emperor Polemos."
After adding the additional information and doing some calculations, the possibility of telekinesis-user being the True Immortal rose to 30%.
"The suspect has reached 30% probability of being the True Immortal. Conclusion; the suspect IS the True Immortal," Ceone concluded.
"Request; further explanation, Ceone."
Cetwo failed to understand how her twin sister was so conclusive despite the lack of information and less-than-half probability.
"A low probability is reflected by its lack of information. But for any suspect to reach even 30% probability despite that, such low probability is actually very high. As such, the suspect is as good as being the True Immortal, Cetwo," Ceone explained.
Although Ceone's explanation sucked, Cetwo understood the gist of her reasoning and nodded, "Affirmed; the True Immortal has been found. Let us meet the True Immortal and request his cooperation—"
"Wait."
Ceone raised her hand and immediately stopped Cetwo from approaching the suspected True Immortal.
"The True Immortal is the strongest being beneath the heavens. The True Immortal may not necessarily agree to cooperate and follow us back to the Federation obediently. We need a plan, Cetwo—"
"But the True Immortal has already discovered us," Cetwo suddenly whispered in a soft voice like a mouse.
"What?"
Ceone was startled.
"Look, the True Immortal is waving to us, Ceone," Cetwo pointed before waving back with a cheery smile.
Ceone's expression immediately changed.
Swoosh—!
Cetwo was quickly grabbed by Ceone before the two disappeared off into the distance, causing Albion's wave to pause.
"Boss, why are you waving at the sky?" Wuxin asked curiously.
"Eh? No reason, I guess?" Albion responded wryly before scratching his head with knitted brows, "At least, not anymore…"
Still, those two ladies wore some pretty high-tech equipment.
Albion thought that they were sent by Emperor Polemos to secretly follow and assist him, but he guessed he was just reading too much into it.
"Oh…"
At Albion's vague response, Wuxin could only mimic him and scratched her head puzzledly.
The boss was being weird again.
Rumble…
The rooftop floor suddenly trembled slightly due to loud droning noises before Wuxin glanced up like everyone else.
"Woah, boss! Look at those spaceships!" Wuxin pointed to the sky and exclaimed.
In the sky, giant spaceships made their descent from outer space before separating upon entering the atmosphere.
For a moment, the entire battle in the city stopped.
Everyone watched as one of the giant spaceships descended towards Silvercove city before they wondered what was happening.
"What's going? Why are there so many giant spaceships descending from outer space? Is Emperor Polemos declaring war on the other Emperor Hunters again?"
"That's not right! Those spaceships aren't warships! They aren't equipped with any weaponry. They are transports!"
Soon, the transport spaceship's parking location was made known before people realized there were already people waiting at the designated point.
The gates opened, and droids marched out to receive the guests while controlling the growing crowd in the vicinity from illegally boarding the spaceship.
At the same time, the internet forums quickly sparked with activity.
[3SecondHero: Holy shit! Guess who I just saw entering the spaceship?! The Xiao family and Seymour family!]
[UnlimitedReviver23: Why ask if you're going to answer it for us anyway? Idiot. I've also seen them.]
[3SecondHero: Oi, oi, who are you calling an idiot? If you're tough, fight me.]
[UnlimitedReviver23: Do you think I'm scared of you? I'm the guy with the red cap! Do you see me? I'll wait for you!]
At the spaceship's location in Silvercove city, the young man by the username 3SecondHero quickly spotted a red-capped person within the crowd.
"Hmph, dare call me an idiot?"
The young man's eyes glinted coldly before jumping the red-capped man and gave him a resounding smack on the head.
However, the man was like a mountain, unmoving, and did not budge an inch. Evidently, he was a very strong man.
The red-capped man glared at the young man and asked, "What is your problem, mate?"
Gulp!
The young man immediately swallowed his saliva before asking, "UnlimitedReviver23?"
"What shit is UnlimitedReviver23?!" the man snarled.
"Can we talk this out?"
"No!"
…
Sometime later, the young man returned to the internet forums with a blackened eye, a few missing teeth, and several bruises.
[3SecondHero: @UnlimitedReviver23, f*ck you! I got beaten because of you!]
[UnlimitedReviver23: Hahaha, I knew you were an idiot, idi-oot—!]
…
Silvercove Beach, 8:10 PM
A few blocks away from Eastern Allure Hotel, Estelle Xiao drove down the chaotic streets while the two boys, Armin and Shuren, gazed out the windows with shock.
"Big Sister, something big is happening! So many people are fighting here!"
"No shit, Doofus. Don't you think Big Sister Estelle can't see that?"
"Language, boys," Estelle Xiao quickly reprimanded them before continuing to drive carefully down the street.
Having eavesdropped on the radio, Estelle Xiao understood that a big battle had broken out between the powerful families within the city, and the police forces have been dispatched to secure the perimeters.
"Luckily, we came early before they sealed off the place…" Estelle Xiao muttered softly.
Bang!
The police car was suddenly struck by a random piece of rock before a big dent was formed on the hood!
The two boys immediately jumped in fright.
"Oh shit, oh shit, we are going die. The people are throwing rocks at us… Wait, why do they need to throw rocks?"
Armin asked.
