Chapter 1312: Deeply Calculating
After the award ceremony ended, Jiangnan felt uneasy.
He called out to the group and wanted to return to the Tianchen Bureau headquarters, but the swarm of media reporters rushed over.
They shoved the microphone in front of Jiangnan.
"Are you afraid when you shouldered the skyfall? What about that ten-thousand-meter giant beast Leviathan? Is it still alive?"
"Now Gold Pang Badi, Barbarian Toru, Bruce, and Andy have been attacked one after another. Is it related to the Lantis incident?"
"Now that Lantis, Yu Guo, and Hua Xia have formed a strategic alliance, is it possible for Lantis's technology to be applied in the civilian sector?"
A jumble of questions swarmed in.
Jiangnan's expression didn't change.
(¬_¬) "The officials will naturally release whatever information can be said. Everything will be based on the actual announcements!"
"I have things to do, so I'll take off now!"
The reporters looked at Jiangnan with shocked expressions.
Σ(°△°|||)
No way? Had the ever-sassy Southern God changed his nature? Answering questions so officially?
As he spoke, Jiangnan had already pushed through the crowd and headed straight for the military vehicle.
Hu Shuo was anxious and couldn't help shouting, "Southern God, you were the world's strongest Platinum before! In the Lantis battle, you earned the title of world's strongest Diamond!"
"Will you keep that title? What about Star Glory?"
Jiangnan paused, then turned back with a grin.
(๑¯ิٹ¯) "No matter what rank, once I reach it, I'll be the strongest! Just wait and see!"
At these words, everyone present felt a chill run down their spines.
What kind of confidence was this?
It wasn't showing off! It wasn't bragging!
It was simply stating the fact, filled with calm composure.
And this composure came from absolute confidence in his own overwhelming strength.
Edward looked at Jiangnan with emotion. After Old Fire God, Hua Xia had produced another deity.
Behind him, the staff member who had been pushing the cart couldn't help but sneer.
That was only if he could stay alive long enough to reach Star Glory!
...
In the military vehicle, Jiangnan admired the Star Breaker Medal. The Spirit Martial Alliance really didn't skimp on materials.
This Lan Xing model was made of some spirit material—it must be worth a lot of small money, right?
As he spoke, he tossed the Star Breaker Medal into the Alternate Dimension.
The convoy quickly left the city. Jiangnan looked thoughtful.
He thought Sacred Star would take advantage of his appearance to cause trouble, but it seemed he had been overthinking.
Did Rui Sen and the others not want to be exposed in front of so many people?
Jiangnan felt a little disappointed. All those preparations had been for nothing.
Even that big weapon wouldn't be needed?
"When I get back..."
"Boom!"
With a loud explosion, azure Bose light burst forth on the elevated bridge.
The entire bridge was blasted apart, and more than a dozen vehicles of the convoy were blown into the sky.
Everything happened too suddenly, but even so, the personnel in the convoy did not panic.
They remained vigilant at all times and immediately prepared for battle.
Jiangnan in the car rolled his eyes.
(꒪ͦд꒪ͦ๐) "I praised you for nothing."
As he spoke, eight Void Chains shot out of the car window like glazed giant snakes.
In the void, Rui Ya's body suddenly appeared. Inside her chest, the energy of the triangular body in the Nian Shen Zhu had accumulated to its limit.
She looked at Jiangnan in the car with eyes full of resentment.
(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "Shen Shi!"
Jiangnan: !!!
Damn! Starting with a big move?
A shocking spiritual shockwave burst forth, rapidly blasting toward the convoy.
Even Wang Dalei and Luo Jiaoyang's faces turned extremely grim.
Facing Shen Shi, even Dao Heaven rank was completely useless!
Jiangnan's Void Chains quickly wrapped around the dozen or so vehicles that had been blown into the sky.
"Spatial Displacement!"
Before the Shen Shi shockwave arrived, the entire convoy vanished before Rui Ya's eyes.
Shen Shi was released, but it hit nothing.
But within a radius of tens of kilometers, tools, farmland, signal towers, and everything else were completely destroyed.
The violent magnetic field destroyed everything visible. The momentum was immense, terrifyingly so.
Rui Ya stared blankly at the vanished convoy. A one-yuan coin fell from the air, hit the ground, and spun.
On the back, a tongue-sticking-out ghost face was drawn with a marker pen. ⍨⃝
Rui Ya stared at the one-yuan coin, her eyes bloodshot. "Ahhh~ Damn you, Jiangnan!"
As she spoke, her body abruptly vanished.
On the Gobi Desert, seventy thousand meters from the Shen Shi point.
The entire convoy suddenly appeared. Everyone felt a blur in front of their eyes.
The surrounding scene had changed.
Zhong Yingxue was stunned: "Did you leave a Spatial Mark on the coin?"
Xiao Nan had been prepared all along? So that was why he threw coins out of the car on the road?
Jiangnan grinned.
(๑¯ิ◡¯ิ) "Hehe~ Preparedness prevents calamity!"
When they came, Jiangnan dropped a coin with a Spatial Mark every hundred thousand meters.
This way, he could swap with the coin at any time. After swapping, he could sense the location of the next coin.
Continuous swapping ensured he could return to the God-Slaying Spell Array in the shortest time.
This was exactly the preparation Jiangnan had made for this trip.
He didn't expect it to actually be useful.
Wang Dalei was puzzled: "We only saw Rui Ya? Why didn't Rui Sen come? Or is he..."
At this moment, Jiangnan's expression suddenly changed dramatically.
"Damn! We've been tricked! Caught in the trap!"
...
Just as Rui Ya attacked the convoy, Jiangnan's Alternate Dimension was pitch black.
At the location of the Star Breaker Medal, a dark spatial rift suddenly formed.
Rui Sen's body suddenly emerged from within.
He couldn't help but curl his lips into a smirk.
(๑՞ٹ՞) "In terms of tricks, you think you can outplay me? You thought putting it in the Alternate Dimension was safe? Hah~ Naive!"
Under normal circumstances, a space-type Spirit Warrior's Alternate Dimension was absolutely inaccessible to others.
Even for a Bose body, it was impossible.
It was true that a Bose body could enter Ling Xu through the Dimensional Gap.
That was because the spatial node of Ling Xu remained constant.
But the Alternate Dimension was different; its node changed constantly.
No matter how hard a Bose body searched in the dimensional rift, they could never find the node of the Alternate Dimension.
But with a star mark, it was different. A Bose body could sense the spatial node of the star mark within the Dimensional Gap.
It was like a lighthouse in the dark.
Even if the node of the Alternate Dimension kept changing, with the star mark guiding the way,
Rui Sen could find it smoothly and infiltrate.
And that Star Breaker Medal was made from a star mark.
For this operation, Rui Sen had paid a great cost, even activating an undercover agent within the International Spirit Martial Alliance.
All to infiltrate Jiangnan's Alternate Dimension.
To be safe, even in that hundred million dollars, a star mark was hidden.
Playing to his preferences, wasn't that the most basic tactic?
Even Jiangnan was not without weaknesses.
The lure of money! He didn't believe Jiangnan wouldn't be tempted.
He was just waiting for Jiangnan to put the star mark into the Alternate Dimension!
Looking around Jiangnan's Alternate Dimension, even Rui Sen felt his scalp tingle.
What the hell had Jiangnan stuffed in there?
How were there several excavators?
No time to worry about that. Rui Sen's first sight was the huge Origin Stone standing in the Alternate Dimension.
It emitted a faint blue light, giving a sense of purity and holiness.
At a glance, it made one feel a bit scared.
Rui Sen didn't know if it was because he was nervous breaking into someone else's Alternate Dimension or something.
Bose particles burst forth, instantly shattering that huge Origin Stone.
He felt so relieved!
His eyes swept around and saw a glass jar nearby.
It was filled with an unknown pink liquid, soaking a golden scepter.
The scepter was covered with intricate incantations and embedded with an Origin Stone.
On both sides of the scepter were pink angel wings.
꒰ঌ●໒꒱
╰∩╯
Rui Sen sneered: "Found it! This must be that Origin Scepter or whatever? The protection is quite thorough!"
His big hand grabbed directly through the glass container, seized the Origin Scepter, and pulled it out.
But as he pulled, a 'click' sound was heard.
Under the scepter's shaft, there was a diamond sphere covered in spikes.
As soon as the Origin Scepter was removed, that fruit stem popped up automatically.
Rui Sen frowned: "What the…"
"Boom!"
With a loud explosion, the Diamond Giant Durian in the glass jar suddenly exploded.
Diamond spikes mixed with golden-yellow pulp burst out everywhere.
The glass jar shattered into pieces, and the pink solution splashed all over Rui Sen.
_(꒪ཀ꒪」∠) "Bleh~ Bleh! Bleh~"
Rui Sen, holding the scepter, immediately vomited, spilling Bose particles all over the ground.
The entire space was filled with unimaginable fragrance!
[Rui Sen's grievance value +1000!]
There were even traps?
What was that yellow stuff? Disgustingly foul!
Next, a door suddenly opened in the Alternate Dimension.
Jiangnan glared over with fierce eyes.
(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅ꐦ) "Rui Sen!"
Rui Sen smirked smugly and quickly darted out of Jiangnan's Alternate Dimension.
"Playing with me? You're still too green! This is paying someone back in their own coin!"
Jiangnan looked disgusted.
Rui Ya's attack was a feint, meant to distract him.
To buy time for Rui Sen's operation?
If Jiangnan hadn't sensed the anomaly in Alternate Dimension, his lair would have been raided by Rui Sen.
The Alternate Dimension held all the life savings he had painstakingly collected!
Even if a Bose body was amazing, it couldn't possibly infiltrate his Alternate Dimension?
The first thing Jiangnan thought of was the hundred million in cash and the Star Breaker Medal.
Did they come in through these things? Otherwise, it didn't make sense.
Was there a person from Sacred Star in the International Spirit Martial Alliance?
Jiangnan didn't have time to think. Without a word, he directly tossed out the Star Breaker Medal and the hundred million in cash.
Immediately, a rain of money fell from the sky!
