"Someone has finally come out of Pomelo!
Who could it be?
Who could it be?
What has really happened in Pomelo?
We will soon be able to uncover the mystery! "The host's tone was high-pitched and excited, but then his tone changed." Don't go away!
Don't ever go away!
Don't move your line of sight!
Otherwise, you will regret it for the rest of your life. What comes next is the moment of everyone's attention!
It's even more exciting after the commercial! "
The great hall was suddenly filled with orderly swearing, and all the card artisans who had just been whetting their appetites wanted nothing more than to go forward and tear the host apart.
Even Chen Mu was taken aback, and he couldn't help but feel that the host was really interesting.
Bogner didn't have so many misgivings, and he let loose a torrent of abuse.
The disgusting advertisement made people's anger grow. At this moment, 15 seconds seemed to suddenly become a long time.
The commercial finally ended, and the great hall, which had just been unusually noisy, abruptly quieted.
The faces of Wang Ze and Jing astonishingly appeared on the screen.
The card artisans in the great hall clearly didn't recognize them, but they were holding their breath, waiting to see what kind of shocking news would come out of their mouths next.
Chen Mu and Bogner looked at each other, and their expressions also became serious.
The team behind Wang Ze and Jing was the same team they had entered Pomelo with, and it looked more or less intact.
Chen Mu hadn't thought the two people who would appear on the screen would be people he knew, which surprised him.
But, thinking about it, it was the most reasonable result.
The two of them represented the Star Academy and the Bitter Solitude Temple. Unless Tang Hanpei wanted to be enemies with those two, he would certainly give them some convenience.
Apart from the Federation Comprehensive Academy and the Central Repository of the Classics, their team's power was the strongest in Pomelo.
Wang Ze and Jing were walking at the very front, and Chen Mu could see that they couldn't help but reveal a look of relief on their faces.
Chen Mu's gaze suddenly fell onto the wooden boxes they were each holding.
The reporter in front of them had sharp eyes and immediately recognized Wang Ze and Jing.
"Greetings to the honorable Mr. Wang Ze and Miss Jing.
I am a reporter for the federation's official platform. Can I ask a few questions? "the reporter asked cautiously.
Those two were the representatives of the Star Academy and the Bitter Solitude Temple, and he was only a small reporter. He rushed to rein in his usual face.
The federation's official platform?
Wang Ze paused for a moment and nodded. "Yes, but I can't guarantee an answer." The relationship between the Federation's official platform and the Big Six was a little complicated.
Jing wasn't displeased by Wang Ze's actions. She also knew how to maintain her public image.
The reporter was overjoyed, but he quickly controlled his emotions. "Thank you for your generosity!
Could you tell me what happened in Pomelo? "
Wang Ze's expression became a little strange. He smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know how to explain this, but I think everyone will know very soon."
The reporter was very tactful. Although he didn't get the answer he wanted, he immediately changed the question. "What is the wooden box in your and Miss Jing's hands?"
A glint flashed through Wang Ze's eyes. He hesitated for a moment before giving his answer. "These two boxes contain the ashes of Mr. Qiao Yuan and Mr. Mi Xiaqing.
We were entrusted by Lord Tang Hanpei to deliver them to the Central Repository of the Classics.
Lord Tang Hanpei said that they are true warriors and should be respected. "
Dead silence!
Whether it was the reporter or the hall where Chen Mu was, it was all dead silence!
That scene wasn't just happening there. The entire federation seemed to have been frightened by those words.
"I'm sorry, but we need to hurry.
Goodbye. "
Wang Ze spoke very politely to the stunned reporter. He then exchanged a look with Jing, and everyone quickly left.
"Mr. Wang Ze! Mr. Wang Ze!" It wasn't until they were far away that the shocked reporter came back to his senses.
The group moved forward in silence.
Jing suddenly opened her mouth. "What does Mr. Tang Hanpei really want to do?"
"I don't know." Wang Ze shook his head without thinking.
What he had just said had been intentional.
He believed that once he said it, the enmity between the Federation Comprehensive Academy and the Central Repository of the Classics would never be resolved.
The centuries-old pride of the Central Repository of the Classics had been trampled to a pulp by Tang Hanpei in front of the entire federation.
That kind of enmity couldn't be resolved even after another 100 years.
That was a good thing for the Star Academy.
He knew that Jing understood this as well.
And he was even more convinced that what he was doing was certainly part of what Tang Hanpei had anticipated.
That made it impossible for him to have any feelings of pride. That elegant and unrestrained figure seemed to be hiding in the shadows all the time, so vague and so unfathomable.
A chill rose uncontrollably from the deepest part of Wang Ze's heart.
What did he really want to do?
They quickly ran into the Central Repository of the Classics card artisans who had just gotten the news.
Those few short sentences had caused a huge uproar throughout the federation.
No one would question the authenticity of that information, since the one who had said it was none other than Wang Ze from the Star Academy. Beside him was Jing, a student of the Bitter Solitude Temple's Ying Chen!
Most people were convinced that the decline of the Central Repository of the Classics was a foregone conclusion.
But they were also convinced that the Central Repository of the Classics' counterattack would absolutely be fiercer and fiercer than any trapped beast!
The hall was strangely quiet. Everyone, including Chen Mu, was thinking about the matter.
Just then, Xi Ping and Xiaobo returned.
The strange atmosphere in the hall immediately put the two of them on guard.
"Did we miss anything exciting?" Xiaobo shrugged his shoulders with a look of indifference.
But if anyone were to be fooled by his harmless appearance, they would certainly die a miserable death.
Xi Ping also looked curious.
Bogner didn't even raise his eyelids as he threw out a sentence. "Qiao Yuan and Mi Xiaqing were killed by Tang Hanpei."
"What?" Xiaobo was shocked. "No way!
Tang Hanpei is that fierce?
He could kill those two by himself?
Absolutely impossible!
Don't tell me someone helped him? "
Both Chen Mu and Bogner were shocked, and their faces turned a little ugly.
Right!
The possibility of Tang Hanpei killing Qiao Yuan and Mi Xiaqing by himself was too small!
Killing and defeating were two completely different concepts. The difference in difficulty was several times greater.
Could someone have helped him?
That was the thought that would pop up in any ordinary person's mind.
Everyone would wonder who it could be.
Chen Mu and Bogner had already vaguely guessed the answer.
The Starfish Fort. Tang Hanpei was most likely drawing support from the Starfish Fort!
Thinking back to the team of Federation Comprehensive Academy card artisans they had run into after leaving Pomelo, Chen Mu had an abrupt bad feeling.
Bogner's face was also ugly. He looked all around to see that no one was paying attention. He lowered his voice to Chen Mu's ear and said, "We have to leave quickly.
Tang Hanpei certainly used the Starfish Fort, and I reckon he will likely push us out. That way, he can use the power of the Central Repository of the Classics to force us to get close to him.
There's a high chance we'll be wanted by the Central Repository of the Classics.
We showed our passes when we entered the Heavenly Drum Village District, and I reckon they'll quickly find out.
If we don't leave soon, we'll be in trouble.
We've thoroughly offended the Central Repository of the Classics this time. "
What Bogner had just said was what Chen Mu had just been thinking.
He raised his head to look at Xi Ping.
Xi Ping immediately understood and nodded almost imperceptibly to indicate the matter had been completed.
Chen Mu made a prompt decision and ordered, "Let's go right away."
The biting cold wind mixed with snowflakes hit their faces painfully.
In such an environment, visibility beyond a hundred meters was very low.
It was a vast expanse of whiteness as far as the eye could see.
The poor Xiaobo had been dragged out to do hard labor, and the Wheel's scouting ability was their biggest insurance.
His whole body was emitting a faint white glow, which was the glow of the Heating Card.
The card could keep the temperature within the range of a human body at about 35 degrees.
However, in this windy weather, the effect of the Heating Card was actually very limited.
The raging gale would blow away all the heat emitted by the card.
But how could that be difficult for Xiaobo, who could move about alone for a long time in the jungle?
He found the lowest-grade energy cloak card. Its strength was very low, but it was very effective in blocking the wind.
Looking from a distance, Xiaobo looked like a glowing white egg.
But seeing the boss suffer outside with him, Xiaobo naturally had no complaints.
The other card artisans all got into the shuttle cars, which were a lot better than the jet stream card there.
Borna was the happiest among them, looking with relish at the fantasy card Xi Ping had bought for him.
The card recorded quite a few construction methods unique to the Heavenly Drum Village District.
In order to hide their tracks as much as possible, they had always avoided big cities.
After Chen Mu and Bogner talked it over, they finally decided they would go to a place in the Heavenly Drum Village District called the Pascal Mountain District.
It was a snowy mountainous area, where there were only vast snow-capped mountains and boundless coniferous forests.
There were no big cities in the Pascal Mountain District, only a few small castles scattered among them.
Moreover, it was chaotic enough.
There had been endless fighting among the small castles for many years, with no power occupying a dominant position there.
For Chen Mu and his party, such a place was doubtlessly the best choice.
Compared with the enormous Central Repository of the Classics and the Federation Comprehensive Academy, those local powers could only be considered ants in front of an elephant.
The most important thing just then was to avoid the limelight. As for future development, that wasn't so urgent in Chen Mu's eyes.
He had no ambition to unify the federation.
After 25 days of nonstop traveling, they finally arrived in the Pascal Mountain District.
