Simultaneous Transmigration: Merging with the True Self of All Heavens

Chapter 120 Aesop

"Excuse me—may I sit here?"

This was a man with golden skin, carrying a backpack, and wearing a kind smile on his face; he was clearly a Godora.

However, his skin color is very light, suggesting he is not a pure-blooded Godora.

"Who are you?" Li Yuan asked, sizing him up.

"Haha, I was being presumptuous. Please allow me to introduce myself." The Gedorian bowed gracefully.

"My name is Owen, and as you can see, I am a Godora."

"But please rest assured, I am not an arrogant pureblood, but merely an ordinary hybrid of Godora and alien human."

"I apologize for bothering you all, but I hope to keep you company on this short journey."

The members of the Xuanji Mercenary Group looked puzzled. It was strange that a stranger had suddenly appeared and wanted to befriend them.

However, after looking him up and down a few times, Li Yuan nodded and said, "It's fate that we met. Please sit down."

Han Xiao silently activated various detectors to lock onto the mixed-race Gothra man, just in case he was carrying something dangerous.

However, throughout the entire process, this mixed-race Godora named Owen showed no unusual behavior and seemed to be just an outgoing person.

Two hours later, the train arrived at the station, and everyone got off.

Owen bowed slightly to everyone and said with an elegant smile, "Although this journey was short, it was a wonderful and relaxing time. Thank you all very much for your company, and I hope to have the opportunity to see you again in the future."

After saying that, he waved his hand, slung his bag over his shoulder, and turned to leave.

"What a strange person," Melos shook his head.

Li Yuan watched his figure disappear, then smiled and said, "Never mind him, let's continue our mission."

After many twists and turns, the group found the last known location of their target, a seemingly ordinary villa, following the address in the intelligence report.

However, Ames's teacher was not there; instead, a group of C-rank mercenaries were lying in ambush and launched an attack without saying a word.

However, given their strength, these people naturally couldn't possibly cause any harm to the members of the Xuanji Mercenary Group.

After quickly defeating them, Han Xiao looked at the fallen mercenaries and asked, "Why did you attack us?"

"Someone paid us to teach you a lesson," the mercenary replied in a gruff voice.

"Who is your employer?" Han Xiao's eyes flashed upon hearing this.

The mercenary quickly replied, "Our employer sent us here today to deal with the person who rang the doorbell of this villa. He said we wouldn't be in any danger, and if we lost, he would tell you a location so you could go there and find someone who knows his whereabouts."

"He also asked me to relay his exact words: 'You guessed it, it's me. Don't think I don't know you've misused my name. If you want to find me, play a game with me.'"

"Damn it, the prophet!" Han Xiao gritted his teeth.

Clearly, the man hired these mercenaries to pass on clues and instruct them to go to the next location.

"What should we do? Should we go to the place he mentioned?" Melos asked.

"Go, I want to see what tricks he has up his sleeve." Han Xiao thought for a moment, then nodded sharply.

The group arrived at the location the mercenary had mentioned in their flying vehicle, only to find that it was actually a bookstore.

Stepping into the shop, the interior is decorated in a rustic style, with smooth brown wooden floors and rows of wooden bookshelves filled with books.

These books exude a rich magical aura, and seem to be high-end magic books recorded in magical script.

Clearly, this is a magician's shop.

Hearing the commotion, a man in a monk's robe emerged from the depths of the shop. After sizing up the group, he asked, "What kind of book do you want?"

Han Xiao didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "I'm looking for someone with prophetic abilities. He should have left you a message too."

"I see." The magician nodded.

He straightened his robes and said slowly, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Yi Xuan, and I am a teleportation mage. This bookstore is just a side business. My main business is running a teleportation service."

Upon hearing this, Han Xiao's eyes flashed.

On some magical planets or planets with advanced civilizations, there will always be mages who run teleportation services.

They can teleport customers to another location on the same planet, saving the time spent traveling by vehicle.

Because the greater the distance of the teleportation, the greater the consumption and difficulty, teleportation is generally only carried out within the same planet and rarely across planets.

Because if something goes wrong, the client could very well be thrown into space, so usually only powerful enough mages dare to perform long-distance teleportation.

And it is quite obvious that this person named Yi Xuan is a teleportation mage.

"Did you teleport the target we're looking for to another place?" Li Yuan asked.

Yi Xuan shrugged: "He pays, I teleport, it's that simple."

"Oh, right, he also left a message saying that he wants to play a game with you people who are looking for him. He will see you as long as you steal the Heart of Crystal Fire."

"The Heart of Crystal Fire? What is that?" Melos was taken aback.

Han Xiao searched online for a bit, then sneered, "He wants me to steal the priceless jewelry from the wife of the head of the super conglomerate that controls Norrios? Is he trying to use us, or is he just toying with us?!"

"Tell me the truth, where did you teleport him to?"

Yi Xuan smiled and said, "I can't sell out my clients' information."

"Really?" Han Xiao suddenly smiled crookedly.

The next moment, he vanished instantly, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of Yi Xuan, reaching out to grab his head, his palm glowing with the light of cannon fire.

Yi Xuan, completely obedient, shouted directly, "Stop, stop, stop! I'll talk!"

"I don't know where he went. He asked me to use a random portal, anywhere on the surface of Norios, and the location was random. I really don't know where he went."

L

Han Xiao frowned and turned to Fording: "Fording, can you do me a favor?"

Fording immediately understood what he meant, stepped forward, raised his hand and pressed it against Yi Xuan's forehead, then lowered his hand and nodded after a moment: "He wasn't lying, he really doesn't know where that person went."

Hearing this, Han Xiao frowned, but suddenly, a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and he said with a serious expression, "I won't care about his demands. Since that's the case, then let's not look for him anymore. Anyway, that's enough to get by."

With that, he waved and led everyone out of the bookstore.

"Are we really not going to do anything about it?" Melos whispered.

"There's no need to waste that effort. The target is definitely on Norios. Once Ames arrives, searching the entire planet will be a piece of cake. He won't escape." Han Xiao shook his head.

Three days later.

The Norios Airport terminal was bustling with people, and all sorts of creatures could be seen everywhere. Countless travelers came and went.

At this moment, an ordinary human from outer space, carrying a backpack, slowly walked into this place.

But in reality, beneath his disguise lies another face.

His name is Aesop, and he is the teacher who guided Amos to awaken her superpowers.

By this time, he had already purchased a seat on a long-haul flight, preparing to leave before Ames arrived in Norrios.

"Hmph, too naive. Did you think I wouldn't leave?" Aesop thought to himself with a smirk as he considered the measures Han Xiao had taken.

"From the moment you obtained the clues I left behind from the intelligence organization, the outcome was already decided. You misused my name, so it's fair that I punish you slightly." He wore a knowing smile.

Suddenly, a large hand landed on his shoulder from behind.

Aesop was startled, his body jerked to a halt, and he slowly turned around to see a strange man standing behind him.

The man raised his hand and rubbed off a mask as thin as a cicada's wing, revealing Han Xiao's face underneath.

"How did you know I was here?" Aesop's expression changed, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He wasn't wondering why Han Xiao was here; he figured it out immediately.

What puzzled him was that Norrios had a total of five ports, so how could the other party accurately find the correct one?

Han Xiao smiled, pulled someone over from the side, and reached out to remove the mask from the person's face, revealing Fording's face: "This is my mascot."

"You mean—luck?" Aesop's face stiffened at first, but he quickly recovered.

A skilled prophet like him knows very well that luck, though elusive, is the simplest and most unsolvable thing.

With a slight sigh, Aesop removed his disguise, revealing his weathered, middle-aged face, and chuckled, "It seems my apprentice has found a formidable partner."

Han Xiao, with an expression that said "You finally understand," stepped forward, put his arm around his shoulder, and took out his communicator to dial Ames's number.

The moment the screen opened, Ames immediately spotted Aesop next to Han Xiao. Her beautiful eyes lit up, and a playful look appeared on her face: "Aesop, my teacher, I've finally caught you."

She turned to look at Han Xiao: "Wait for me, I'll be there soon."

After saying that, he hung up the call.

Aesop immediately gave a wry smile and shook his head helplessly.

Not long after, Ames's spaceship arrived at the port, since she was supposed to arrive in Norrios today.

"Shouldn't you say something to me?" Amos approached Aesop and said expressionlessly.

Aesop sighed helplessly: "Alright, I should have come back to see you sooner. I shouldn't have been hiding from you. Don't stand here being watched by people. Let's go, let's go."

With that, he boarded Ames's spaceship.

A smile appeared on Ames' face as she turned to look at Han Xiao, her expression serious and her tone solemn as she said, "Thank you."

Han Xiao waved his hand: "It's nothing."

Ames nodded and boarded the spaceship.

Soon, the spaceship departed from port and headed into space.

As Han Xiao watched the spaceship disappear, he was about to speak when he suddenly saw a group of Godora people in battle suits hurrying past.

"Gedora people? What are they doing here?" Han Xiao's expression suddenly changed when he saw the leader of the Gedora people.

He was a tall, masculine, and exceptionally heroic man.

He knew this person!

This person's name is Nagokin, a Cataclysmic-level superhuman from the Godora civilization!

Moreover, the rest of the Godora people are not low-level investigators, but special operations forces specializing in combat.

After thinking for a moment, Han Xiao walked over and stood directly in front of Nagokin.

"Who are you? Get out of my way." Nagokin frowned.

After Han Xiao introduced himself, Nagokin nodded: "Black Star? I've heard of you. What brings you here?"

"Just saying hello and asking if there's anything I can help you with," Han Xiao said.

Nagokin shook his head: "No need, we're in a hurry, we'll be going now."

After saying that, he waved his hand and led his team away.

Han Xiao wasn't particularly disappointed. Since Nagokin said he didn't need it, he wasn't going to bother trying to win him over.

The group left the airport and returned to the ground, intending to rest for a few days and purchase some supplies.

Unbeknownst to them, a storm was brewing at that very moment.

Norrios City IV, a secret location.

A large group of Dark Star members gathered in a dimly lit room, discussing something.

"This traitor's ability is to transform into five physical clones. We have one clone in our hands, three others have been exposed, and the whereabouts of the last one are unknown. It should be his original body that he is hiding."

-

"His clones cannot stray too far from his main body, otherwise they cannot be maintained. Although the exact distance is unknown, it will never exceed one planet, so he is still in Norios."

At this point, the Dark Star personnel turned to look at the corner of the room.

There, a Godora was bound hand and foot to a chair, covered in blood, clearly having suffered inhuman torture.

His appearance was strikingly similar to that of Owen, whom Li Yuan and his group had encountered on the train.

Clearly, he is the traitor that Dark Star is hunting.

"Hehehe, you'll never catch my true form," Owen sneered.

His special ability is to create clones, and the one that Dark Star has captured here is one of those clones.

His superpower allows him to have up to four clones and one main body at the same time, with each clone possessing full combat capabilities.

His consciousness was also divided into five parts, and these parts were all of himself, capable of operating simultaneously.

Because of the shared senses, if the clone is injured or dies, the original body's consciousness will also experience some pain and mental harm.

Furthermore, the clone will shatter if it gets too far from the main body, which is equivalent to death and will also cause some damage to the main body.

Therefore, as long as you can control one clone, you can determine the approximate range of the main body.

If Pei Xing were to capture a few more of his clones, he might even be able to directly target his main body.

"No one can betray Darkstar. Traitors must die!" A Darkstar member looked at Owen with disdain and said coldly.

Owen did not refute, but simply gave a silent, cold laugh.
