Transform into a human
Chapter 22 One sword to slay evil, one sword to suppress the soul
Winter looked warily at the members of Falken's squad:
"I'm mentally unstable!"
Professor Corleone nodded:
"Miss Dong is not actually an employee of our facility; she was sent here by her owner for recuperation."
"It doesn't matter." Falken didn't care about Winter's cooperative attitude. He flicked his finger, and an invisible shockwave hit the snow elf, sending out several threads.
The senior superintendent picked out the thickest one, held it tightly in his hand, and the other end extended faintly into the school.
"That's it, let's go!"
……
……
On campus, at the Elf Research Institute.
Cavendish kept going in and out of the research institute, sometimes looking up at the battle situation from outside, and sometimes going inside to give Yue Hao and Mo a real-time report.
"Miss Agent, was this also part of your plan?"
As things escalated, the leatherworker's face grew increasingly pale: "The situation doesn't seem to be at all what you said!"
Yuehao was also a little unsure, but thinking about her brother's reliable track record in the past, she decided to wait and see.
"What's the rush? Great people are calm and collected. It's just some technical adjustments. The pollution has been brought under control by the school."
"Can……"
"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'ke'? Keep up the sentry duty!"
"Ugh."
As a result, Cavendish saw a group of police officers as soon as he stepped outside, heading straight for the research institute with a clear objective.
His legs went weak, and he knew there was no chance of escaping this time.
To everyone's surprise, the beautiful policewoman ignored him completely, simply signaling her teammates to wait outside the door. Then she pushed him aside from blocking the doorway and rushed into the research institute.
Hearing the noise, Yue Hao quickly pretended to be pregnant, closed her eyes, and lay down on the sofa.
"Yuehao, this is a serious matter!"
"Officer Hua Leisi?" Yue Hao opened her eyes in surprise. "How did you find me?"
"The Snow Elf has your causal connection on her." Li said briefly, quickly telling Yue Hao about how she and Yue Lai had been tricked, and the latter's expression gradually stiffened.
"You mean we've gotten into trouble?"
"And it will be a great disaster."
Suddenly, a knocking sound came from the glass jar next to her, and Li then realized that there was a whole row of freshly made Winona Loan next to her!
She quickly operated the device to release Jasmine, and the wind-up sprite hurriedly dressed:
"Where's Yue Hao? Is he alright?"
"What could possibly be wrong with him? We can't worry about the promotion ceremony for now; we need to suppress the historical corruption first!"
Yue Hao spat out the display case, which slammed onto the ground with a thud. The Zhenhai Sword was no longer in its previous dormant state, but was now half-suspended in the air.
"Perfect, this thing is too heavy anyway, I wouldn't have been able to hide it for long."
"I'll call Wande and the others to move it away. You two should stay out of the way."
"Click."
A sound as loud as thunder came.
The three people's faces stiffened, and they slowly looked up. A crack completely broke the vacuum that separated the inside and outside of the display case, allowing information from the outside world to enter. The Zhenhai Sword suddenly shone with golden light.
It woke up.
"Bang!"
The display case didn't even last a second before exploding into dust. Mo and Yuehao were gently thrown aside by the shockwave, while Li remained strangely in place, even choosing to avoid the dust.
The policewoman looked in surprise at the divine relic so close to her. The blade drew on its own, and a dazzling golden light sliced through a thousand years of time.
The blade pattern emerges from continuous clouds and thunder, and the golden light flowing along the spine of the sword has reflected the eyes of gods, and has also caused the entire Serena to fall into sudden silence the moment it was drawn from its sheath.
Anxious cries echoed from the scabbard, seemingly waiting for her to grasp it.
Mo's voice came softly from behind:
"Miss Police Officer, do you know what you look like?"
Li subconsciously responded, "Like what?"
"Like the villain in a story, after countless hardships and scheming, he has finally grasped the divine weapon that everyone covets!"
……
……
A warship was converted into a temporary combat command post. In just half a day, Principal Tang Xiao felt that he had aged ten years.
"Still haven't found it?"
The subordinates looked at each other in bewilderment.
"The entire university town has been searched, but there are no clues at all, though a lot of sex scandals have emerged."
At this point, another elderly professor got excited:
"They all followed the 'cat' lead, and ended up uncovering quite a few old guys who kept Kates in captivity. We're going to see something interesting soon."
Kate is what is commonly referred to as a "catgirl".
"Still hoping for some entertainment!" Tang Xiao roared. "If it really comes to the point of open scrutiny, all your dirty secrets will be exposed!"
Several high-ranking school officials fell silent. These days, everyone has their secrets...
"Should we ask headquarters for help?"
"It's too late," Tang Xiao suddenly appeared extremely dejected, showing no airs of a superior. "The reason we can barely control it now is because the [Sea King's Crown] is accumulating power. In such a short time, even headquarters can't get a level 5 divine relic that has the same elemental advantage and is suitable for suppression."
One person tentatively asked:
"And what about the principal?"
The "principal" in question does not refer to Tang Xiao, but rather to the principal of the Federal National University, who is second only to the Chief of Police, Xingxiu, and could suppress Neptune's Crown for a month or two without any problem.
Tang Xiao said helplessly:
"None of the Federation's constellations are idle. The pioneering wars have created too many hidden dangers. At least the Siren has the Sea-Suppressing Sword to keep them in check, but other places can only rely on the constellations."
"Even if we delay any longer, it will be difficult for us to stop the Sea King's Crown, even if we obtain the Sea-Suppressing Sword."
If the original connection between the historical pollution and the outside world was only the size of a spring, then the Zhenhai Sword could easily block it. But now that the spring has expanded, the Zhenhai Sword is a bit too thin...
Moreover, it was a level-five relic, which only Xingxiu could use. Others... even Tang Xiao would have to pay a high price.
Tang Xiao suddenly spoke some inexplicable words in despair:
"That wretched woman, she promised to help me, but now she's nowhere to be seen..."
"A woman's mouth... ah."
Just when everyone was at a loss, a golden light pierced the sky in the distance, and the phantom of a city stretched across the sky—Zhenhaiguan.
The school's bigwigs were stunned by this sudden scene, speechless. They all rose from their seats and looked at the Zhenhai Pass with a mixture of surprise and confusion.
The female general stood at the boundary between the smoke of war and the setting sun, her golden armor blazing like the sun, burning a hole in the darkening sky.
Layers of armor plates, each one gleaming with the golden light of the battlefield, illuminated her brows.
She rested her hands on the Zhenhai Sword, her eyes filled with golden light, devoid of any human emotion.
Beside the ruins of the Elf Research Institute, Wander looked up at this scene and almost cried:
"Damn it, I want to be in the limelight too!"
The appearance of the Zhenhai Sword seemed to have enraged the long-dormant ocean of history. The stories contained within the ocean suddenly began to develop at an accelerated pace. They grew rapidly like branches, and each possibility instantly evolved into a new one. Their scale increased almost exponentially, instantly breaking the Iron Chain Great River Formation set up by the extraordinary warriors and turning the entire sky into azure blue.
This scene quickly caused panic in the city. If viewed from space, the area covered by the historical ocean was far more than just the university town. Almost a quarter of the police headquarters was covered by a layer of blue film. If you look closely, this "film" is actually a vast ocean with a thickness of tens of kilometers!
Tang Xiao's guess was correct. The Sea King's Crown was not bound by the extraordinary individuals, but was silently accumulating power, which has now erupted prematurely!
The planetary defense system activated instantly, hundreds of large warships took off urgently, countless high-powered military tearstone weapons were aimed at the university town, and the Red Heart, like a small sun, burst forth with dazzling brilliance, ready to wipe out evil spirits at any moment.
But Li remained expressionless, simply waving his sword lightly. Hundreds of billions of historical branches, indistinguishable from the real ones, were instantly shattered, and the once vast ocean became fragmented.
What she and Yue Lai experienced in the school history museum back then was nothing more than a fallen leaf of history, but now it can break through 10 billion with a single sword!
But this move seems to have backfired. The tree of history was shattered, and the humans and demons within it came to the real world, turning the ocean into an arsenal!
Various sea monsters, comparable in size to warships, appeared out of nowhere, letting out deafening roars. The sirens warriors rode them, determined to carry out a revenge that transcended time and space.
This time, Li didn't just swing the sword; he chose to hold it with both hands, the blade pointing downwards, and slowly but resolutely plunged it into the void.
Almost simultaneously, a sword appeared above the head of each siren. They had no way to dodge or block it, and could only wait to return to history. This sword... caused excruciating pain!
Finally, the sword fell, and countless sea monsters turned into seawater. The ocean shrank at a faster rate than it had expanded, flowing back into the "spring."
It was that level-five evil relic that chose to shrink on its own initiative.
Neptune's Crown was naturally unwilling to accept that the opportunity it had waited a thousand years for had been lost, but it also knew that it could never truly emerge from history on its own.
Fortunately, it had already sown the seeds of a comeback and learned of the traitor's backup plan.
In just a few minutes, the clear sky reappeared above the university town, and the bright sunshine made it seem as if the catastrophe just now was just a dream.
Li Qing floated down from Zhenhai Pass on the horizon. The great array that resembled an ancient pass disappeared into the void once again. It was unknown who set it up or why it appeared.
She went straight to the ruins of the history museum, gently handed the Zhenhai Sword to the pitch-black spatial rift, and the surrounding transparent folds were instantly smoothed out, and the black hole was also shrouded in golden light.
After doing all this, she collapsed onto the ruins.
Tang Xiao: "Quickly, go save them!"
The old professor behind him murmured, "Didn't the principal say that whoever finds the Zhenhai Sword can be his father?"
Another person laughed and said, "Now it's time to recognize a mother!"
……
……
three days later.
A grand banquet was held in the school auditorium, not only to celebrate the successful resolution of the "Zhenhai Sword theft crisis," but also to honor outstanding graduate Li Hualeisi.
School leaders and the chief superintendent in charge of the university town took turns giving speeches, showering Li with praise as if it were free. Perhaps running out of words to praise him, the banquet finally moved on to the free exchange session.
"You mean the thieves? They've all vanished into thin air," Li said, holding a wine glass in one hand, speaking eloquently among the crowd as if surrounded by stars. "The Zhenhai Sword was a level five divine relic. The moment the display case shattered, they were all turned into gold dust by a golden light. I was the only survivor."
The younger students around him exclaimed "Wow!"
"What? You're asking how I'm alright, and how I can still wield it and conquer?"
"Perhaps it was moved by the courage in my heart. Actually, I was terrified at the time. Whether it was a divine relic, an evil relic, or a relic of civilization, level five was level five. A tiny scratch could reduce me to ashes. But when I thought of the juniors behind me who needed protection, I suddenly lost my fear."
"Even divine swords possess a spirit; perhaps it was this fearless spirit that moved it."
I heard another chorus of "wows" all around me.
What? You're saying Senior Hua Lei is making up a story? Senior Hua is innocent, and everyone knows that innocent people don't lie!
Donald, watching this scene from afar, suddenly felt a toothache and muttered, "If Li knew this kid was spouting nonsense like this, he'd probably kill him."
"And you even killed him," Wander said sourly, "You even lent him your identity; your relationship with that man is much closer than yours or mine!"
Finally, a naturally beautiful girl joined the team, but she was snatched away by some bastard outside on her first mission. Wande was furious.
Donald joked, "His mother is a member of parliament, not to mention his father, who's always kept secret, so don't even think about it."
"The boss told me privately that the superintendents all suspect that Hua Leisi's ability to control the Zhenhai Sword this time is mostly due to her father's influence. It's terrifying to think about."
Wan De stubbornly refused to admit defeat: "That's not something a conman could even dream of!"
On the other side, Yue Lai got increasingly carried away with his boasting in the crowd, but fortunately, he didn't forget his business. He pretended to be dejected:
"Seeing you all makes me feel like I've gone back to when I was still in school. It's a pity that time flies so fast, and there are still many dreams from my university days that I haven't been able to realize. Thinking about it now makes me sigh."
Soon someone chimed in, "What regrets does the senior have?"
"Putting everything else aside, take that preparatory club for example. I've always wanted to join it, but I've never had the chance."
Upon hearing this, Huang Yuehua, the president of the club, who was not far away, exclaimed, "Such a good thing?!" He quickly squeezed into the crowd:
"Senior, you're mistaken. Who says you can't join the preparatory club after graduation? We could create an honorary president position; I wonder if you'd be interested?"
Yue Lai feigned surprise: "Really? That's great! Thank you, junior!"
Then he pulled out a file that had been prepared beforehand:
"This is the identity information required for joining the company. The format is fine; you can just file it directly later."
Huang Yuehua wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth, completely ignoring why Li had prepared in advance: "This will save us a lot of work. Senior, you really think of others!"
By using his status as a great contributor and a patriot, Yue Lai once again fooled the president into thinking he was a fool. The file naturally contained Yue Lai's identity information!
Xia Du arrived at the university town yesterday, successfully bringing a 60% complete encrypted document, which just meets the minimum requirements for a spy's promotion.
At this point, all preparations for the breakthrough were complete.
"No wonder he's ranked among the Thirty-Six Extraordinary Talents, this Skin-Painting Master is truly skilled; so many spies failed to see through him..."
"Even though the process was completely wrong, the result was completely right..."
"It's time for reckoning!"
