C292 The Mysterious Revolutionary League!(2)
Only those chosen by Heavenly Punishment were deemed worthy to wield these two formidable powers. Even in his past life, amidst the chaotic opportunities of the Land of Immortals and Demons, the beings capable of controlling the power of space were so rare that they were almost mythical in each era.
Chu Yi had never imagined that in this world, advanced civilizations could achieve this feat through their own technology. He was immensely curious, but regrettably, he didn't have the opportunity to explore this further at the moment. However, once he gained enough strength in the future, Chu Yi was determined to delve into this mystery.
As he sensed the space around him shift, Chu Yi suddenly found himself standing in an expansive square. The sky above was overcast, yet the square was bathed in light from countless lamps, revealing every detail with striking clarity.
Releasing a slight wave of his perception, Chu Yi quickly took stock of his surroundings.
"Seventeen!" he thought, startled.
Around the square, he detected seventeen overwhelmingly strong presences. The least powerful among them was a mid-level Diamond, and astonishingly, six of those auras belonged to peak Diamond Great Generals. It was terrifying, utterly terrifying!
Chu Yi was unfazed by their strength, confident in his ability to subdue them all, but what if someone else were in his shoes? If such formidable forces were gathered in one place, what then? The display of power he was witnessing rivaled that of the Fairmoor city government—a truly frightening thought.
Without uttering a word or making a sound, Chu Yi remained silent, as if he had indeed been transported there. After a full ten minutes, several figures emerged. They were clad in lab coats, emerging from within the square.
"I told you, there's no issue. You all make such a fuss over nothing," one of the researchers in a white coat complained loudly to his companions dressed in combat attire.
The combatants could only offer a resigned smile in response.
"Mr. Qin, as you well know, these are the rules, and rules cannot be changed," one of them said.
Mr. Qin continued to grumble under his breath, clearly voicing his displeasure. It was obvious to anyone listening that he was airing his grievances.
A group of people quickly approached Chu Yi.
"Alright, take him away."
"In the past few days, you've only managed to bring me one person. I'm starting to question your efficiency!"
Upon hearing this, the combat personnel could only offer a helpless shrug.
But then, someone else chimed in: "Mr. Qin, we are currently in the midst of the national examination period, so the federal government is enforcing stricter regulations."
"Besides, the individual we've brought this time is no ordinary person..."
Mr. Qin smirked with a hint of scorn. "Not ordinary?"
"Is it because she's attractive?"
Despite Mr. Qin's comments on her looks, the disdain in his eyes was palpable.
Clearly, for him, appearances held no significance.
"Nevertheless, it's quite the departure from the norm. You usually send over a bunch of old men, but this time, you've delivered a young prodigy."
"Dealing with those old men was nauseating. Having someone beautiful for a change is a bit more pleasing, at least..."
As Mr. Qin spoke, he began to appraise Lee Zi.
"Hmm, she really is quite beautiful. She's not yet fully matured. Once she comes of age, she's likely to be a woman of breathtaking beauty..."
Turning to the person who had spoken up earlier, Mr. Qin inquired, "So, has the Revolutionary League decided to switch strategies?"
"Are you planning to entice the War Gods with a few stunning women?"
Inside the healing pod, Chu Yi's mind stirred.
The Revolutionary League?
What was that?
Chu Tianfeng had briefed Chu Yi on numerous Earth organizations.
From the Stellar Knightage to the Ultimate Truth, Chu Tianfeng had covered all the major players.
But the Revolutionary League...
Chu Tianfeng hadn't mentioned it, nor had Chu Yi heard of it before.
If it were just an obscure minor faction, Chu Yi wouldn't be concerned.
Yet the display of power suggested a formidable and terrifying entity!
Not to mention, the sheer number of Diamond Level guards was not something an average organization could muster.
Chu Yi remained silent, curious to see what this so-called modification entailed.
"Cough, cough—"
"Mr. Qin, you jest."
The individual's countenance was noticeably displeased. Had it been anyone else who dared to speak in such a manner, there would have been consequences. But the speaker was none other than Mr. Qin. His presence alone was the linchpin for the entire base, and by extension, the project's success. Without him, everything else would fall apart. In the grand scheme of things, anyone could be replaced except for Mr. Qin.
Even as a special envoy of the organization, he treaded lightly around Mr. Qin, not wishing to incur his wrath.
"Mr. Qin, this girl is far from ordinary. While her looks are secondary, perhaps even inconsequential," he began.
"The real highlight is her talent!" As he spoke, his tone took on a gravity that underscored the significance of his words.
Talent was the key, the most crucial element!
They had no intention of employing the ludicrous strategy Mr. Qin had mentioned, attempting to entice the human elite with seduction. Such a tactic was foolishness personified. Each of the human leaders had centuries of life behind them and had long since become indifferent to such trivial pursuits.
To them, the relentless chase for ideals or profit was all that mattered. Even the most enchanting woman in the universe wouldn't elicit a flicker of interest from them.
"Qualification?" Mr. Qin echoed, a hint of surprise in his voice.
His gaze shifted to Lee Zi, and it was clear that he hadn't anticipated a departure from the usual methods. Yet, what truly caught him off guard was the focus on her innate ability.
The individuals he had previously modified were all aged beings, powerful in their own right but ultimately spent forces.
But now...
A surge of excitement overtook Mr. Qin. "Hahaha, it appears you've come to realize the truth!"
"What's the point in altering those old-timers?" he exclaimed with renewed vigor. "The real transformation lies in successfully modifying these extraordinary beings!"
Modifying these young prodigies while preserving their exceptional talents was the pinnacle of what Mr. Qin aspired to achieve in his experiments. In comparison, everything else paled.
"Mr. Qin, the Lee Zi we've prepared for you this time is no ordinary prodigy..."
By now, the other party had mentioned the girl's exceptional aptitude three times. Even if Mr. Qin was slow to catch on, he surely understood that the person before him was out of the ordinary.
"Oh?"
"What's so extraordinary about her?"
Mr. Qin found himself quite persuaded by what these people had said. If they claimed it was extraordinary, then it likely was.
But...
In what way was it extraordinary?
Although Mr. Qin had never met the so-called master, he was well-acquainted with the inner workings of his organization.
Even though he was only privy to a fraction of it, that fraction had already shattered his preconceptions.
Terrifying, powerful, and utterly daunting!
These were Mr. Qin's sole impressions of the Revolutionary League.
Within this organization lurked a myriad of formidable and fearsome beings.
A Diamond Level presence would stand as a cornerstone in any other organization or noble family.
Yet here, within the Revolutionary League, they were merely employed as guards, as mere sentinels.
And not just one or two, but over a dozen!
Mr. Qin had initially speculated that this must be the doing of the federal government, for no other entity could wield such dread power.
But Mr. Qin eventually discarded this theory.
He had modified many individuals, and while he preferred to stay out of external affairs and showed little interest in politics, it didn't mean he was ignorant.
Among those he had modified, some were even top brass within the government!
And the others...
Mr. Qin recognized a few of them as well; they were prominent figures from elite families.
