Chapter 192 My Thunder Blade! Sacrificing It to Save Humanity

……

Next, naturally, you should pick up money whenever you can.

The members of the Skybridge organization ran around wildly, collecting all the materials that could be exchanged for merit points.

Even Dao Mei, who was very reluctant to be tricked into joining the organization by Sheng Yixia, couldn't help but feel that she had struck it rich. Before, when she worked in an official unit, although there were all sorts of group missions, how many merit points would she ultimately get?

I've never felt this good before.
Today's team building activities were successfully completed.

After Sheng Yixia tallied and distributed everyone's DKP, she posted it in the team group chat. Once it was unanimously agreed upon, she prepared to leave the forward base and go back to sleep.

There's a match tomorrow!

As for the other members, they also left after completing the task statistics.

However, they seemed to have too much energy. Even after arriving in H City at two or three in the morning, they were still clamoring to go out for a late-night snack.

Sheng Yixia couldn't keep up with them any longer. After parting ways with them, she went straight home, washed up, and went to sleep. The next day, she went to the gymnasium to participate in the round of 16.

As soon as Sheng Yixia arrived at the scene, Zhou Fei called her to the organizing committee's office.

Upon entering the office, he found Lei Dao there as well. Although his injuries from yesterday had almost healed, he appeared extremely listless, as if all his energy had been drained.

"Captain Lei," Sheng Yixia asked with concern, "that astral spy, could he be an apostle of the Crimson Lord?"

"What do you mean?" Lei Dao looked puzzled.

“Uh…” Sheng Yixia didn’t know how to start a conversation.

Zhou Fei glared at Sheng Yixia: "Yixia, don't bully honest people. Lei Dao grew up in a martial arts family and his romantic history is relatively simple, unlike you, a seasoned lover."

"My romantic history is very simple," Sheng Yixia protested, "I've only ever had one girlfriend."

“But you’ve been dating for three years and living together for over two years. Strictly speaking, this isn’t a breakup, it’s a divorce,” Zhou Fei said with a smile. “Besides, I’ve seen all the training materials you gave Lei Dao. I can only say that when handsome men get cunning, it’s truly terrifying.”

Ok.

So that's where they were waiting for me.

Sheng Yixia changed the subject, saying, "Sister Fei called me over, not to ask me to give Captain Lei some advice, right?"

"No, it's not that. Lei Dao made good progress with Laying Down and Winning Life last night thanks to your methods," Zhou Fei said. "However, after they had their late-night snack last night, Laying Down and Winning Life gave Lei Dao something that he needs you to take a look at."

Before Fei Jie could finish speaking, Lei Dao took out a palm-sized, scale-like object from his storage space and handed it to Sheng Yixia, saying, "This scale looks like it's from a supernatural creature. Tang Ying said it's a treasure she accidentally obtained during a supernatural mission."

Sheng Yixia took the scale and immediately felt a chill run through his palm. His first instinct was that the owner of this scale was no ordinary person. Immediately, he looked at Lei Dao with suspicion again: "Did you really just have a midnight snack last night?"

"Ahem!" Lei Dao was a little embarrassed and said in a slightly flustered manner, "I was just trying to complete the mission. Besides, I don't know if she was flattering me or if the secret manual you gave me was too useful. Anyway... anyway... the progress is a bit too fast."

Ok.

Sheng Yixia looked at Lei Dao with a somewhat shocked expression: "Captain Lei's spirit of sacrifice is truly admirable. You didn't even know whether the other party's true form was male or female, or what species it was, yet you dared to bite directly... Isn't that much more impressive than Master Xu?"

"Ah, this..." Lei Dao was clearly shocked as well. "How could it be a man? Brother Yi Xia, you don't know something, do you?"

Clearly, he has reached a level of psychological acceptance regarding species, but he definitely didn't consider the other party's gender. The deception was too strong, and the female characteristics of "winning life without effort" were still very strong.

"I don't know, I'm just guessing." Sheng Yixia quickly covered up, after all, he knew that the mastermind behind the easy way out was Lucien Twilight, Karansha Twilight's brother.

Since he's the older brother, he's most likely a male vampire.

Could Lei Dao really be going to bite me?

Could it be that my jinx really came true?

Other people's jinxing is probably just jinxing.

However, Sheng Yixia's Mind Power cards contain the "jinx" attribute, meaning that good things don't come true, but bad things do.

Lei Dao breathed a slight sigh of relief, but his expression was still somewhat unpleasant. He tried to argue, "I think that although Tang Ying is an undercover agent of the Star Realm, she is quite perceptive and understands what men are thinking very well... so she should be a woman."

Ha ha.

Sheng Yixia didn't want to say anything more. Anyway, what's done is done, so there was no need to make Lei Dao unhappy. Besides, she still needed him to feign compliance with the "lying down and winning life" persona.

He put aside his distractions and began to study the scale: "The ice power contained in this scale is so strong, it is most likely an S-class ice-type extraordinary creature."

“We’ve all figured that out,” Zhou Fei said. “We called you here so you could figure out their purpose. Why did they give this scale to Lei Dao? Is there some kind of conspiracy involved? After all, not many people know that our branch chief wants an S-grade ice crystal core.”

“Then let me analyze it first.” Sheng Yixia’s mind was working at lightning speed. “The purpose of ‘lying down and winning’ is very clear: to find out the mastermind behind the sabotage of Twilight Prophet’s several action plans.”

“If we follow the normal procedure, and we’ve confirmed that Lei Dao is the hidden boss, shouldn’t we try to take him down? This scale is related to an S-class supernatural creature and also to the branch chief’s promotion path… Could it be that they’re trying to lure us into fighting that S-class ice-type supernatural creature, and then ambush us to both take down the branch chief and deal with Lei Dao?!” Zhou Fei’s eyes showed appreciation for his quick thinking: “We’ve discussed this for a long time before coming up with this deduction, but something still feels off, so we’ve asked you for your advice. It would be best if you could do a divination, after all, you’re the old Taoist’s disciple.”

This is a classic case of consulting a fortune teller when in doubt. No wonder the master always avoids the National Security Bureau. He consults a fortune teller every day. If he doesn't have the protection of Heaven, he'll eventually lose his life through fortune telling.

"If something is amiss, there's no need for divination to confirm it. Logically speaking, the Twilight Prophet is an extremely powerful prophetic supernatural being, and he must have already calculated who the destroyer is."

"But it's clear that it tried, and it couldn't figure it out."

"From this, we can infer that the Twilight Prophet should know that the mastermind behind the destruction is also a person proficient in divination. It should also know that there is a considerable probability that its plan to use this trick to divert our main force to fight the supernatural creatures and then ambush and annihilate them will be exposed."

After a brief analysis, Sheng Yixia came to a general conclusion: "But this move was still forcibly used by 'Lying Down and Winning Life,' so there is only one answer: this was 'Lying Down and Winning Life's' unauthorized action."

Zhou Fei hurriedly asked, "Then why did she take it upon herself to do this? What is her real purpose? It can't just be to give the branch chief a big gift, can it?"

"It's not impossible."

Sheng Yixia's eyes brightened slightly. He knew that the person behind the "Lying Down and Winning Life" was Lucien Twilight. From the intelligence he had obtained earlier, he knew that the Twilight family was once a very powerful family. The reason why they invaded Earth this time and took the lead was to restore their family.

If a person is truly incapable, they wouldn't even think about restoring their family's glory.

That proves that Lucien Twilight is a capable and ambitious person. Looking at historical figures or characters in works of art, hmm... it seems to fit Murong Fu's character quite well.

As is widely known, Murong Fu was a man who would give up anything and cooperate with anyone in order to restore his kingdom.

And this Lu Xi'an·Twilight, knowing full well that Lei Dao was a man, and most likely the mastermind behind his sister's murder, still managed to develop a relationship with him in that direction, and even went so far as to sleep with him. Tsk tsk...
Sheng Yixia thought about it more and more clearly. After a moment of contemplation, he took out three copper coins, made up the six lines, and cast a hexagram. The hexagram showed that his guess was most likely correct!
Good guy.

Lucian Twilight, ostensibly on a business trip to investigate a case for the Twilight Prophet, is actually harboring malicious intentions and brewing a series of conspiracies.

What does it want to do?
Want to deal with the Twilight Prophet?

What good does this do him?
Sheng Yixia couldn't figure these things out for the time being, and she probably couldn't find out the other party's specific purpose through divination.

However, since this Lucian dared to cause trouble right under the nose of the Twilight Prophet, the situation it presented might not be true, its strength level might not be true, and its extraordinary abilities might not be entirely real.

It seems that, to be on the safe side, we should make several preparations.

Subsequently.

Sheng Yixia briefly explained the results of her analysis and divination, but concealed the fact that the man behind it was Lucien Twilight, a male vampire, so as not to cause Lei Dao to lose control and reveal his weakness later.

"So that's their purpose?" Lei Dao was also shocked. "Then why did Tang Ying only take out one scale? Aren't they afraid we wouldn't be able to calculate that much detail?"

"It's probably still a test," Sheng Yixia said. "If you can use a single scale to predict the whereabouts of that S-class ice-type extraordinary monster and even foresee good or bad fortune, then that S-class monster is a gift to us, and we might even be able to cooperate further in the future."

"If she can't figure it out, then forget it. She'll probably betray you to the Twilight Prophet right away and get a quick buck."

"That doesn't make sense. If they know we have divination skills, aren't they afraid we'll figure out that the 'easy-win life' is a spy?"

Sheng Yixia shook her head and said, "I've tried, but I can't figure it out. I can only figure out the whereabouts of the 'lying down and winning life' and some malice, but I can't figure out whether the other party has a real body or where the real body is. The other party obviously has a tool or treasure to confuse the secrets of heaven."

Zhou Fei narrowed her eyes: "So, if we can figure out the whereabouts of the S-class ice-type extraordinary monster, we can take advantage of the situation and launch a surprise attack. No matter how you look at it, it's a win-win situation. Yi Xia, can you figure it out? This is very important to the branch chief."

“S-class extraordinary beings, although far from reaching the level above the Heavenly Dao, are a class with relatively high authority in any world. If we deal with it, we will definitely suffer a fierce backlash from the Heavenly Dao of the other party.”

Sheng Yixia shook her head.

Based on the strength he has shown so far, theoretically speaking, an S-class supernatural being would have to lose at least half its life.

He didn't intend to reveal his framing skills; he'd rather wait until he leveled up again before trying.

"I wonder if the old Taoist priest can figure it out," Lei Dao said regretfully.

Forget it then.

My cheap apprentice isn't even as good as me.

However, people can't stand being nagged.

Just as they were talking about their cheap master, Sheng Yixia received a somewhat fawning phone call from the old Taoist priest: "My precious disciple, where are you?"

But he hadn't finished speaking.

The phone was taken away and someone said, "Are you this old Taoist priest's apprentice? You need to come to Liyang Road Police Station now to pay the fine. Your master was arrested during a raid on prostitution last night."

"..."

Sheng Yixia, Lei Dao, and Zhou Fei were stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.
