Chapter 3060 - Purple Scarf
"Yeah, if it weren't for my strength, they would’ve caught me a long time ago," Zi Zhen said, looking at her own arm. Although her body was frightening, it brought her a sense of security.
"Second-level foundationeer...." Tianming was thinking that if she was this strong, it meant he could do more things in the capital.
While he was lost in thought, Zi Zhen suddenly called out to him.
"What's up?" Tianming looked up, looking at the fierce-looking demon. He saw her use her sharp purplish-red claws to pinch a purple scarf from out of nowhere. She carefully wrapped it around Tianming's neck and tied it up.
Now, the combination of beauty and the beast had completely reversed. Tianming had become the beauty, while Zi Zhen was the beast. The beast was now putting a scarf on the beauty, a scene that was indescribably strange.
"What's this?" Tianming reached out and touched it. He couldn’t recognize the material, which was soft but resilient, as if it couldn't be torn easily. It didn’t seem to be an ordinary item.
"A gift for you," Zi Zhen said.
"What is it?" Tianming asked.
"I don't know, I just picked it up somewhere," Zi Zhen said in a deep voice.
"You're avoiding eye contact, which means you're lying. Do you know what this is?" Tianming chuckled.
"Anyway, it won't harm you. It can protect you," she seriously said.
"Alright, I'll accept it. But it's embarrassing for me, a man among men, to wear such a girly scarf—"
"Wear it!" Zi Zhen grit her teeth. In her current state, even if she tried to speak as gently as possible, others would think she was about to eat children.
"This makes me feel awkward. I haven't even given you a gift," Tianming searched his spatial ring for a while, but couldn't find anything suitable. Suddenly, he had an idea. "Right, I'll give you a manna with nine hundred and ninety-nine apertures. Can you absorb it?" He had obtained nine manna, all of them the same attributes as the nine great imperatores of the flameyellow divinities depicted in the Imperator’s Mural. Among them, eight attributes matched with his eight orders.
Only the death-type manna of Imperator Death was of no use to Tianming. Originally, it had been reserved for Xiaodao, but he had six lifebound beasts. Moreover, his talent ceiling and age meant his limit for this life was only the first- or second-level Foundation stage. So he wouldn't be able to use the death-type manna for a while.
On the other hand, Zi Zhen had been judged by Myriadpath Valley as having the highest talent among the races of the astralscape. She might indeed have a chance to succeed.
"How could you possibly have such a high-level manna.... Those aren’t even available in the entirety of Antiquitas Mortis," Zi Zhen said in amazement.
"Even Myriadpath Valley may not have them," Tianming confidently said.
"This is so precious, I—"
"I have a total of nine, no refusal allowed. As I said, it's a gift," Tianming domineeringly said.
"Okay!" Even though she was a fierce-looking demon, she was still subdued by Tianming.
However, the manna was on Ebonia. Tianming happened to be going back, so he would replenish Yin Chen using the ore veins and get it for her then. Zi Zhen's star quantity wasn’t high right now and her divine abilities were lacking, so it was just the right time for her to need manna. However, whether to take the risk when the time came was uncertain.
She was indeed one whole stage higher than when Ying Huo and the others had absorbed the super manna, but her physique couldn't be compared to a Primordial Chaos Beast’s. Even Ying Huo and the others had failed.
As for Xiaodao, his lifebound beasts hadn't even reached a million stars yet. Tianming would give him a set worth more than three million stars at some point when he was in Myriadpath Valley. It was said that the best manna were mostly concentrated in the Heavensource Starriver of Myriadpath Valley. Considering that, if Tianming wanted to improve himself, he would still have had to go to Myriadpath Valley. In the astralscape of order, there was only one Myriadpath Valley!
But right now, he planned to go back to Ebonia.
Just as he was about to bid farewell to Zi Zhen and set off, Yin Chen suddenly said, "Little sister... Zi Zhen... is a... second-level... foundationeer? Now... there is... a potential... target target!”
"A target?" Tianming's eyes lit up.
Now that Zi Zhen's safety had been confirmed and Yin Chen's goal of extensive expansion had been achieved after half a year of effort, he still intended to continue his plan to find order fragments. Yin Chen had spread throughout the entire capital, monitoring everyone one by one, screening and selecting, judging everyone's status, what treasures they had, what martial power they had.... It could be said that its understanding of some people had exceeded those people's understanding of themselves.
It had many bodies, and that wasn't the scariest thing. The scariest thing was that it had a singular will, and that will had an astonishing overall information processing ability. It was simply a universal superbrain.
What Tianming received was information that Yin Chen had already parsed, so not even he knew what complex screening it had gone through before the information came out.
Yet despite its expertise in the field of intelligence, it still stuttered when speaking.
Tianming was in a hurry, so he directly asked it to arrange the information in front of him and Zi Zhen in written form, so he would only need to take a glance to understand.
Target information.
Name: Chen Tianyong.
Race: Minotaur.
Identity: Previous Lord of Commonsky City.
Status: Entered the capital alone without protection.
"Commonsky City?" Tianming had been there before, and he’d even saved Mister Gu from xeno fatigue.
"After he suffered from xeno fatigue, he directly resigned from the position of city lord and left Commonsky City to wander, so the world doesn't know that he suffered from xeno fatigue."
That was the information Yin Chen had gathered. In fact, many big shots without much family would quietly leave after suffering from xeno fatigue in order to preserve their lives and property by not letting anyone find out.
On the one hand, it would preserve their reputation, and on the other, it would maintain their peace and quiet.
That kind of person was Tianming's primary target, because even if he recovered and returned to people's sight, he wouldn't attract others' attention. But that was only the barest minimum foundation of cooperation.
To become Tianming’s target, one also had to have order fragments.
"In fact, after hearing there was someone in the capital that could solve xeno fatigue, and that order fragments are needed, many people from all over Antiquitas Mortis have come here with their family and friends who suffer from xeno fatigue while carrying order fragments to try their luck. Most people have layers of protection, but Chen Tianyong has been a solitary person all his life. He dares not make friends, since he is carrying precious treasures and his own combat power has been severely reduced. If he’s betrayed by a so-called ‘friend’, who would speak up for him?"
