Starting Cultivation in Wasteland

Chapter 942 - 810: Sowing Confusion

The Supreme who shouted "watch out" was Earth Attribute, not from the military sequence, but from a small family.However, this person was also a famous prodigy, on par with Jia Shuqing.

The information barrier of the Imperial was indeed very severe, but with such a large base of ordinary people, it’s not surprising for a few geniuses to appear.

The relationship between this person and Jia Shuqing... is actually average, which is why he was invited to come.

But between geniuses, besides being mutually competitive, there’s an aura of mutual admiration, and he was the least hostile towards Jia Shuqing among the four.

The once high-spirited unparalleled genius, now so dispirited, who wouldn’t sigh with emotion?

This person had an Earth Attribute, and although his perception wasn’t considered strong, his elemental affinity was extremely high and had strong homogeneity.

He could perceive slight anomalies on the distant ground and thus discovered something amiss, and this perception ability even surpassed that of Wood Attribute.

Only slightly below the Supreme of Wind Attribute, in fact, he had also started researching the Wind Element.

To the extent that he could detect potential crises through the dust in the air.

He was the first to notice the anomaly and promptly issued a warning, but it was still a bit too late.

Suddenly, a huge Golden Wheel appeared by the roadside, swiftly slashing towards an off-road vehicle.

Inside that vehicle, there were two military Supremes, and it was also a bulletproof car.

One of the Supremes had a Fire Attribute, and the other also a Gold Attribute, and upon seeing the Golden Wheel, their expressions changed dramatically.

Supremes’ perception of danger far surpassed that of ordinary people.

The two military Supremes had a high regard for themselves, but as soldiers, they naturally knew what the consequence of underestimating an opponent could be.

Especially since they were well aware that the target of this mission, Jia Shuqing, was troublesome enough, and potential opponents might be even more terrifying.

Perceiving the overwhelming flood of Gold Element, the face of the Gold Attribute Supreme changed, "Damn it, stronger than me!"

The enormous Golden Wheel directly sliced through the bulletproof off-road vehicle as easily as cutting tofu, without any resistance.

The Fire Attribute Supreme, caught off guard, was directly cut into two sections.

It wasn’t that the military Supremes were too weak, but it was a calculated strike that was completely unforeseeable.

Without wearing armor, a Supreme’s body may not be as strong as one might think, especially as Fire Attribute is notoriously fragile.

They had just come out of Jia Shuqing’s manor; wearing armor in the manor would definitely be inappropriate, otherwise, it would not only suggest cowardice but also have a provocative connotation.

On the way back, there was even less reason to wear armor—when would a Supreme casually wear armor?

The Fire Attribute Supreme was cut into two sections, luckily it was a slanted cut, and at least for a while, life was not in immediate danger.

The Gold Attribute Supreme’s speed at donning armor was fair, but not completely successful, and the body was mostly severed.

With just this one strike, the military’s two Supremes were gravely injured.

Immediately afterward, another Golden Wheel was released towards the second car.

Seated there was a non-military Supreme, of the Water Attribute.

The Golden Wheel once again sliced through the bulletproof car, but unfortunately, the Water Attribute Supreme inside reacted quickly, donning Ice Armor.

The second Golden Wheel had slightly less power than the first; the Water Attribute, with rich combat experience, directly crashed open the car door to escape.

But even so, the opponent’s Golden Wheel still cut through the Ice Armor, only though it entered less than two inches into the flesh.

This was mainly because he smoothly dissipated the force; otherwise, he might have lost half his life.

Even though he had dispersed the force, he still felt a fierce shock in his chest, opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The two Golden Wheels directly injured three Supremes, leaving the Earth Attribute Supreme stunned.

He was also someone with his eyes set high, but he never imagined that someone could be so formidable.

He had already donned Rock Armor, but why did he still feel... so dangerous?

The next moment, his mind shook violently, and he finally reacted, "Is it a Spiritual Attack?"

He had some confidence in his Spiritual Power, but he had also made some preemptive precautions.

Recently, whether in Hope or other Star Realms, a large group of Awakened skilled in using Spiritual Attacks had emerged, making it hard not to be prepared.

But even so, he still felt a bit dizzy and couldn’t help but click his tongue in surprise—ruthless!

Fortunately, he remained calm in the face of danger and crashed open the car door to escape.

The bulletproof car was fine, but for a Supreme, its defense was a bit lacking.

Especially when encountering such attacks that could easily slice through a bulletproof car, it was better to escape first.

However, the next moment, the attack did not pursue him, and a lightning bolt struck toward the Water Attribute Supreme outside the car, who was also of Supreme Level.

This time, the attacked individual fully realized who the opponent was and couldn’t help but shout, "It’s Panda..."

Spiritual Attack combined with Electromagnetic Attribute... it’s most likely the notorious Panda Team ravaging the entire Star Realm.

"Protect your neck!" someone shouted, as it was a well-known nasty habit of the Panda Team.

"Panda? Tch~" a cold snort came from the night, "James, a friend of Sophie, extends greetings!"

As he spoke, the voice gradually faded away, "We will return!"

There’s really no way to engage in a fight here, not to mention the proximity to the military camp, and the team accompanying the Supreme are all elites.

This time, the Paranoid did not choose to kill forcefully, the purpose was also very clear, just to create panic.

Alright then, to put it bluntly... it’s not easy to kill, so why not decisively harass and then leave, this is also what Qu Jianlei meant.

However, the current effect is definitely not just harassment; being able to achieve this result in a one-on-four fight is already satisfactory.

Although the Paranoid is very strong, his power has ultimately not recovered, and this time he really gave it his all.

He took advantage of having some Inner Breath left in his body and left straight away, but his last words left chaos behind.

James is that military Gold Attribute Supreme, and when he heard these words, he was suddenly stunned.

The Fire Attribute Supreme had already been cut in half, yet couldn’t help but ask, "James, who is Sophie?"

James, already starting to stop the bleeding, impatiently replied, "Do you believe the nonsense from the other side?"

"Alright, just take it as nonsense," the Fire Attribute Supreme said weakly, "as long as it doesn’t affect everyone’s judgment."

He was out to perform official duties, and if he was injured because of a comrade’s personal vendetta, it wouldn’t be worth it.

But what he couldn’t tolerate more was that James’s deception could affect the direction of the situation.

The Earth Attribute Supreme also reacted at this time, "James, are you sure about that?"

"I... I’m sure!" James hesitated for a moment, but still insisted on his statement.

The others understood this tone in their hearts - this Supreme had some unspeakable issues.

In fact, at this moment, James’s heart was full of shock: does someone still know about the vendetta between me and Sophie?

He and Sophie... that was all in their younger days, melodramatic but absolutely not uncommon.

Sophie was strikingly beautiful, and her background was excellent, she took a liking to his promising future.

As a result, James had better opportunities, and then Sophie died with her unborn child...

Later, Sophie’s family was suppressed by James’s wife’s family, and then there was reconciliation, and later his wife’s family encountered problems.

But no matter what, these were very old matters. The key was that this subtle struggle wasn’t known to many people at the time.

So the more shocked James felt: The other side could actually mention Sophie’s name, is it really for revenge?

It’s important to know that even among his peers, very few people knew, and those people have long since passed away.

In fact, with the Paranoid’s perspective, such trivial matters weren’t worthy of his attention, it was Qu Jianlei who mentioned it.

Qu Jianlei knew this information because it came from the Star Thief’s archive room.

In the Star Thief’s archive, there are many similar pieces of shady information prepared for unexpected needs.

——Star Thieves who only fight and kill definitely lack the broader picture; it’s best to learn to consider everything.

The Star Thieves of Zarif Star aren’t that short-sighted, at least they pulled the Diamond Pioneer Team into the water.

Of course, James’s little scandals don’t have much effect on the Star Thieves.

It’s just a personal emotional entanglement, at most a loss of private virtue; how much of an issue can it make?

However, having it is better than not, in case one day, James privately needs to let something slide.

In fact, the main reason such a private matter was known to the Star Thieves is because... someone from Sophie’s family became a Star Thief!

That person, full of resentment, directly submitted this information—not seeking rewards, just wanting to disgust James.

After Qu Jianlei raided the Star Thief’s archive room, he accumulated countless similar messages.

But generally speaking, he’s too lazy to use them, always feeling it lacks honor, and if someone traces the source, it would be trouble for him.

Information like James’s, which isn’t very useful, isn’t even in his sights.

Until recently, when he learned four Supreme targeted the old lady, he began to investigate their shady histories.

——Fairly speaking, who doesn’t have some shady history in their growth process? Let alone Supremes with such long lives.

Among the shady histories of the four, after selection, he felt James’s was the most suitable.

Firstly, this guy is the military’s Supreme, secondly, this shady history involves personal vendettas!

Personal vendettas aren’t significant enough to blackmail, but using them as a reason for revenge is perfect.

When Qu Jianlei was setting off fireworks on Star No. 4, he arranged for the Paranoid to attack opportunistically.

But attacking at this time could easily be linked to Panda or Jian Lei.

So it’s best to have a reason to confuse the audience.

The Paranoid actually doesn’t like playing such frame-up games, always thinking it’s a crooked path, losing the bravery of the Awakened.

However, diverting Jia Shuqing’s attention is important, and after careful analysis, he found this operation quite feasible.

The key is, it’s difficult for him to handle four Supremes on the spot — at least it would require a considerable price.

But if he left without killing, it would tarnish Panda’s reputation, and such a half-hearted action might put the old lady in a more passive position.

But if he played this pretense, everything would be explained: he was just helping a woman take revenge on a heartless man!
