Chapter 214: Battlefield of All Living Things
11 month 30 number.
In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun shone through the dark clouds, and desolation and coldness enveloped the Ninth Fortress.
Jiang He opened his eyes in the villa, and all eight extraordinary meridians were opened. The energy value increased by each one was twice that of the normal meridian.
[Energy value: 4601 → 6201]
"When I became a lower-level esper and was promoted to a mid-level esper, I did not get any increase in energy value. I guess it was an overflow in this aspect."
Jiang He secretly calculated that the standard true energy of a top-grade martial artist should be 2800 points, and the minimum energy standard for silver is likely to be around 3000. If there is no professional bonus, it will take until LV30 to get it.
"Promoting to the top level of martial arts, the transformation of energy is a natural result."
Jiang He stood up from the sofa. Zhuang Ya was wrapped around his neck like a dead snake. An invisible force of defense emerged within a one-meter diameter around his body. This force alone was enough to withstand small-caliber bullets. He threw a wild beast skull high into the air.
"Spiral force."
The invisible defense began to spin, and a strong wind blew up.
As the supernatural energy Ashes continued to heat up, the temperature around it rose significantly. The skull of the wild beast fell down and was melted into liquid like molten iron by the fusion defense of Hua Jin and supernatural energy Ashes.
This move imitates Long Cheng's Hua Jin sword energy defense.
Under the dual control of Hua Jin and self-control, Jiang He activated the Mobius Knight skill. At this stage, he can already flatten and round the blood shadow.
The Blood Shadow was blended into the style of a pistol. Once fired, it could add to the damage bonus of the gun master. Most importantly, the user could switch positions with the Blood Shadow pistol.
"Hua Jin improves strength in all aspects. No wonder Longcheng is a supermodel."
Jiang He brandished the silver spear, and twelve blood wolf shadows merged together and gathered at the tip of the spear. This was something he had never been able to do before. The burst and lethality of the spear's special effect blood wolf smoke were greatly enhanced.
"Report to the master, it's time for you to go to Venus Hotel." Shuguang Intelligence reported.
Jiang He called A Da and A Er to set off. As soon as they went out, they saw groups of convoys driving into the Fortress Military Academy. The leading armored vehicle was equipped with heavy firepower and had the Tong family label on the body of the vehicle.
"Which of you has change? Let's take a taxi."
"Boss, I have bullets, and if I have bullets I have a car."
"Boss, I'll take the blame, and we can go rob a car."
Jiang He's mouth twitched slightly. Playing Grand Theft Auto in the Ninth Fortress was still a little abstract. Although terrorist incidents occurred frequently, at least it was peaceful on the surface. The Fortress Council probably had the foundation to suppress all parties.
……
Night falls.
On the border between the business district and Queens, a magnificent sixteen-story hotel stands.
Venus Hotel, a joint property of the Security Bureau and the Tu family.
This banquet was hosted by the Executive Office. In name, it was a get-together for various departments, but in reality, it was a warm-up and run-in for the upcoming academy competition and military expedition.
At the beginning of the year, the Fortress Council approved the war authorization for the Ninth Army, preparing to recapture the old-era urban ruins, Xidu, in one fell swoop, and further strengthen the control over the northeastern part of the Alliance. Xidu is currently controlled by the vampire clan, the Mokawi clan, which keeps more than one million human servants in captivity. There are also wolf nests, spider forts, and troll pits surrounding the area, and the intensity of the situation is immeasurable.
As affiliated organizations of the fortress, each large gathering place is obliged to send troops, and the same goes for the parliamentary families.
The purpose of this gathering is to make it easier for all parties to choose allies for cooperation. When hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting, multiple battlefields will inevitably be opened up, and all aspects will need to be coordinated.
Involving a total war, every member of the Senate family must be present, and they will arrive sooner or later. For this reason, the door of the banquet hall on the top floor of the hotel is always open, and VIPs in formal attire are constantly led in by waiters. The crystal chandeliers hanging from the dome cast light, reflecting on the silver tableware and exquisite porcelain, reflecting a slightly dazzling halo, and the marble floor is shiny, and the texture is like a natural painting.
Curtains made of wild moth down were hanging around the banquet hall. This thing was notoriously flashy, and its only advantage was that it would not cause allergies in anyone. On the wall hung a famous oil painting "Spark Navigation" to commemorate the leader who led mankind out of the Dark Ages, the nominal first emperor and Lord of the Silver City.
"I apologize for the traffic surveillance system issue, Director. A serious theft occurred at Tong's Building, and we had no choice but to act first and report later."
"Since I have the approval of the Archon, I will naturally cooperate with you. The Tong family is the pillar of the fortress..."
Amid the clinking of glasses, the gentle smile on Mr. A's face suddenly froze. He clearly felt an extremely cold gaze coming from behind him, violent, cold and powerful. But when he turned around, he only saw a calm and handsome face. The other person was wearing a black suit that could be seen everywhere at this moment, and had a tall figure.
"There's something wrong with you."
Jiang He took off his white gloves and stuffed them into his sleeves. He had murderous intentions to hide. If he was discovered so easily, it would be too unfair for the sniper Leden to die from this move.
Mr. A smiled and introduced the head of the Tong family across from him, "This is my capable man, Jiang He. He is now the boss of the park."
The head of the Tong family is handsome, middle-aged, and has a conspicuous scar under his eyelid. The medical technology of the fortress is fully capable of curing it, but he chose to refuse.
"Boss Jiang is young and promising." Patriarch Tong nodded and raised his glass.
The park is a large gathering place, its leader is at the G4 level, and the two people present are both G5-level councilors, but the head of the Tong family showed a kind attitude. The Forget This Life Hotel incident was defined as a terrorist attack, but the families who have known about it know that its essence is a failed vendetta.
Being able to destroy the SKS team and the special investigation team alone already shows the combat power of a dominant psychic. Unless there is an irreconcilable direct conflict, there will be no disrespectful behavior.
“Mr. Tong donated more than 30 million in welfare funds to the Security Bureau this year.” Mr. A reminded that this was one of the allies.
"Mr. Tong is kind and generous, and I have long heard of your great name."
Jiang He raised his glass quite politely, and even lowered it a little when clinking glasses. The Tong family let him eat a lot, so it was understandable that he was polite. After all, this opportunity was really rare.
"Haha, not really. Mr. A and I are friends." Patriarch Tong answered with a smile, obviously very pleased.
As for the so-called "friends", no one takes them seriously.
After a brief chat, Patriarch Tong reunited with the commander of the First Army of the Ninth Army Group.
The Ninth Army is the main combat force of the Fortress. It is nominally affiliated with the Alliance and has four armies and twenty divisions under its command, with a total of 200,000 people. Each regular division is equipped with a standard 100 military mechas.
Mr. A stood there and greeted the head of the Tu family who was walking over. He was the deputy of the consul and it was not appropriate for him to get too close to the generals of the army group. The relationship between the Tu family and the Tong family was not very good. The former once tried to enter the military industry but met with failure.
Jiang He sipped the wine in his glass. The relationship among the upper echelons of the fortress was quite complicated. Confrontation and cooperation were intertwined and inseparable. None of the three giants showed up at today's banquet. Or it could be said that the banquet was just the beginning. It would be difficult to reach a cooperation overnight, and the process would continue during the entire college competition.
"Dear guests, the betting targets for the college's betting rights will be announced next. The two thousand contestants from the Fortress Military Academy are all on the list. Remember to gamble a little for your pleasure."
Jiang He turned his head and looked. On the stage next to the orchestra in the banquet hall, a middle-aged man with a square face and wearing a purple and pink suit was waving his hand and shouting. A heart-shaped hollow pattern was revealed on the chest of his suit. His fists were abnormally large, with distinct calluses on the joints.
"The chief of the parliament speaker's guards, a G5-level councilor, one of the strongest men in the alliance today. He calls himself the best fist master, his abilities are not on the list, and he has experience in defeating dominant-level abilities." Mr. A introduced.
Jiang He nodded. The information fed back by the executive auxiliary module was clearer.
[Battlefield of All Beings·LV28 Player: Fist Peak]
[Ordinary Creatures in the Silver Age]
[Title: Electric Drive]
[Occupation of Authority: Judge]
Jiang He looked away. Unlike the ruling-level psychics who did not have silver bodies and silver energy, Quan Dian was a real silver powerhouse and belonged to other battlefields.
