Take a break! All the stars for the only guide

Chapter 44: It's a blast

People in the circular stands cast their eyes towards the field, with some expecting and some disdainful.

The sentry in charge of today's guard glanced at Lu Zhizhi and said to his companion, "What are you measuring all day long? It would be strange if it was a guide. It's a hassle for us to use our supernatural powers to move this big guy around. I really want to get off work."

"It's nothing more than a formality. But if they don't have mental power, at least they have supernatural powers. Otherwise, what's the difference between them and those weak humans in the Lower Nine Cities? They have no value at all and can only wait to be protected."

"Yes, I am really tired of protecting humans. You are incompetent but still complain, acting like you are weak and therefore you are right."

Several young men from the aristocratic district opened a gambling table on the spot.

"Come, let's see if that little loser from the Lu family can turn things around this time."

"Come on, you can't even open this betting. You're just betting on her to be a weakling with no mental strength, no mental body, and no supernatural powers. What the hell are you betting on?"

A noble lady took off her bracelet on the spot and pressed it on the other side, saying in a sweet voice: "I bet Miss Lu has supernatural powers."

This was the lady who was publicly humiliated by Hefel at the banquet a few days ago. After she finished speaking, she looked in Hefel's direction to make sure he could hear her voice: "Don't belittle Miss Lu like this."

The other noble ladies looked confused and asked her, "Della, do you have a fever?"

Della had no fever and was even lucid.

After being humiliated by Hefel last time, she figured out one thing when she returned home. This prince was not as indifferent to his fiancée as the rumors said. Otherwise, why would he retort to her in order to protect her? After all, her father was still sitting at the last seat in the Senate, so there was no way they would become enemies.

So Della decided to take a gamble. If the gamble was right, maybe she could win over His Highness Heffield for her father and family.

Seeing that Hefel was indeed looking in this direction, she raised her voice and said, "Even if Miss Lu is an ordinary human, so what? I support her."

Heffer, who was sitting on the high platform, snorted lightly and raised his hand. Immediately, a waiter came forward and bowed.

Heffer held his chin and whispered something to him, then the waiter led his men downstairs, came to the gambling table, and ordered them to put the two suitcases on both sides of the table.

Someone was dissatisfied and shouted: "Where are you from? Have you ever played it before? How can anyone bet on both ends?"

A young man recognized him as someone close to Hefel, and immediately pulled the person who was speaking, and asked politely, "Excuse me, Duke Hefel, what do you want?"

The waiter cleared his throat and said, "Your Highness used two boxes of level 4 alien beast crystal cores to press both sides. Your Highness said that no matter what the test results of Miss Lu are today, she will be the fiancée of Duke Hefel."

Everyone present quickly agreed, and the person who had just shouted hid in the corner to wipe his sweat. Della was secretly happy, glad that she had made the right bet.

On this side, the person involved, Lu Zhizhi, listened to the staff's explanation of precautions at the testing table, and then touched her hand on the transparent barrier in front of her.

She had had an idea ever since she came back from the White Tower last time.

Whether it was Lu Yuan's gradually revealed desire for control or the complicated network of interpersonal relationships among Shangsancheng and Hefeil, she disliked them all.

Therefore, Lu Zhizhi planned to hide her true strength, only release a little spiritual power, and show her identity as a guide. In this way, she could obtain the qualification to enter and exit the White Tower at will, and then get the news of Li Chenjun and others from Feng Heng in time. At least she could be freer and didn't have to ask Lu Yuan for everything.

As soon as she put it on, the magnetic ball in the center of the instrument began to rotate rapidly.

The huge gears in front of it also turned, from slow to fast, and then to extremely fast, even producing sparks from friction.

Everyone held their breath, and the place suddenly became quiet, waiting for the instrument to display the results.

Mental power: None.

Abilities: None.

Lu Yuan looked at the words on the screen and breathed a sigh of relief without making any expression.

Saloi smiled smugly, not surprised at the result.

Jiashi first raised his eyebrows, then an excited smile appeared on his lips.

Various sounds soon rang out in the field——

"I told you, you're just a waste. Tsk, you're wasting my time."

"Another privileged person who needs protection. How boring."

Someone even shouted at Lu Zhizhi impatiently: "Hurry up and get off, why are you still standing there?" Lu Zhizhi looked up at the screen in surprise, then looked at her hands thoughtfully.

Just now, she clearly released her spiritual power.
She was about to raise her hand and leave, when suddenly, the image on the huge electronic screen, which had initially been stuck on the word "nothing", suddenly moved.

After continuously jumping frames, it soared from C to A, then became S, and finally stopped at S+. During this period, the magnetic ball and gears were still rotating, with no signs of stopping.

Someone in the stands asked, "Is the detector broken?"

Lu Yuan resisted the urge to stand up, not wanting to show anything unusual, his muscles beneath his suit were tensed to the extreme.

Heffel had walked from his chair to the front, gripping the railing with his hands, and looking nervously at the small figure below.

Saloi frowned immediately, and his sharp red pupils swept towards his subordinate beside him. The subordinate's face was full of surprise, and then he shook his head at Saloi nervously and innocently.

The mysterious man in black robe sitting nearby leaned forward slightly and watched the situation in silence.

The sentries at the command center were either standing or sitting, staring at the situation with their mouths wide open, and asked in amazement: "So what level is this? A? S?"

"This is terrible. How can there be a guide in this day and age, with such a high level of spiritual power?"

In the corner, Jiashi was biting his fingers excitedly, his eyes fixed on Lu Zhizhi's back.

'Boom—'

There was a loud bang.

The high-speed rotating magnetic ball suddenly exploded.

Lu Yuan stood up suddenly, activated his supernatural power and teleported to Lu Zhizhi's side, using his back to block the falling debris.

"elder brother?"

She raised her head from the man's arms and saw Lu Yuan's serious expression.

"It's okay, let's go home."

Lu Yuan pulled her away in a hurry, but was stopped by Hursun's quick eyes and hands.

"Lord Lu, the detection equipment suddenly exploded. Everyone must wait until the on-site investigation is completed before leaving. Please cooperate."

"The test results haven't come out yet, why are you in such a hurry?" A voice suddenly sounded in the venue. Lu Zhizhi looked towards the source of the voice. It was Jiashi.

He had walked to the front of the stands without knowing when. He sat on the railing, swinging his legs, tilting his head to look at the road, and his low, hoarse voice was full of interest.

"You're right, Miss Lu. I'm really curious, what is your mental power level?"

Lu Zhizhi felt that he had bad intentions.

Before I could refute, another obedient voice rang out: "In order to avoid controversy, I suggest that you should retest it."

She looked at Heffer standing on the other side, wondering why he suddenly interrupted and made a suggestion.

Lu Zhizhi felt that Lu Yuan's grip on her hand suddenly tightened. He looked very tense, like a beast ready to pounce at any time.

"I don't think it's necessary. My sister just got frightened and needs to go home." Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes and stared at Heffel. The two of them stared at each other from a distance, neither of them giving in.

A feminine laugh came from the central area of ​​the stands. Lu Zhizhi saw Saloi with his hands clasped together, with a cross chain tied to his palms. There was no sense of mercy at all, but instead a strange coldness.

"She is just an ordinary human being. Is it worth it for you to be so serious? I think Miss Lu is just a poor little girl who didn't inherit the talent. You can all go away."

Saloi spoke, and Hursun stopped trying to stop him. Lu Yuan glanced at Saloi obscurely, and was about to take Lu Zhizhi off the testing table, but was stopped by the mysterious man in black robe who had been silent the whole time.

"Wait a minute——"

The mysterious man snapped his fingers, and the huge shattered detector in the field disappeared instantly, and a brand new small detector appeared in everyone's sight.

He looked down at Lu Zhizhi with a deep and unfathomable gaze and said, "On behalf of the three elders of the Senate, I order Miss Lu to be retested."
