2204 Eternal Weapon One! “Big Brother Liu, your Ice Bite should be able to handle thousands of troops in a battle on snowy terrain with ease.” Liu Jie smiled and replied humbly, “In order for Ice Bite to unleash its full power, it needs some time to get its engine running. Otherwise, it won’t be able to reach the scale you’re seeing now.” Su Yiren’s lips twitched. Back when she was in the Seven States of Darkness, she never thought that there could be so many members of the younger generation who could match up to her. Her grandmother had been a Class 5 Creation Master, and with her background, she had free use of the Dark Continent’s resources. But ever since she joined Lin Yuan, she noticed that the talent and power she had always been proud of did not count for much. Lin Yuan and Liu Jie had surpassed her. Even Wen Yu, with her talent for governance and the strategic significance of her Elemental Paper, was standing at the peak that most geniuses could never hope to reach. Su Yiren felt that all geniuses should be proud and arrogant. But Liu Jie and Lin Yuan could not be more down to earth. “As long as there is snow and ice, it will take less than five seconds for Ice Bite’s engine to warm up. As long as some snow and ice is preserved, there is no way even thousands of troops will stand a chance. Plus, Ice Bite is just one of your many insect-species carcinoma feys that have transformed into fairies. The rest of them aren’t shabby either.” Su Yiren remembered the capture-the-flag games that were trendy in the Dark Continent. This version of capture-the-flag needed at least eight participants. There was no maximum number of players. One of the players could draw the Boss card, while the rest only had player cards. Liu Jie was currently progressing like how the Boss player would. Before witnessing this for herself, Su Yiren had never imagined such progression. Liu Jie smiled gently and said, “Yiren, you don’t have to belittle yourself. If I get close to you, I will immediately fall under the spell of your Absolute Love Poppy and become your puppet. I won’t have any chance of unleashing my power.” While Liu Jie was speaking, he had no idea what was going through Su Yiren’s mind. If he did know, he would immediately correct her way of thinking. If anyone had drawn the Boss card, it would be Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan did not like to show off, so not even Liu Jie knew the full extent of his feys’ abilities. But only those who were trying to chase after Lin Yuan knew how impossible it was just trying to catch up with him. After receiving Lin Yuan’s reply, Luo Lan immediately changed her clothes and went through the special tunnel to fetch Lin Yuan and his group. Frankly, Luo Lan wanted to hold a parade and sound all the sirens to welcome Lin Yuan. This was not only Luo Lan’s selfish desires. But Lin Yuan made it clear in his message on the Thoughts Letter Paper that he wanted to keep a low profile and cause as little of a stir as possible. The icy wind was bracing, and the cold from Snow Celestial Mountain caused many people from the Freezing Hammer Tribe to unknowingly wear more layers than usual. Many families who were more affluent started searching for tailors to add down feathers, wool, and animal skin to their clothes. Some of them even made new cold-weather clothes. As a result, many tailors ended up overwhelmed with work. The people from the Freezing Hammer Tribe did not think much of these changes. Lin Yuan could already see signs of the Freezing Hammer Tribe in the distance as well as the towering Snow Celestial Mountain that stood behind the Freezing Hammer Tribe. Lin Yuan thought, This should be the spot to do what Luo Lan mentioned in the Thoughts Letter Paper about killing the rotting elites who are holding the tribes’ growth back. If the Astronomical Parliament was a traditional cultivation game, Lin Yuan would have already successfully brought up and transformed the previously fallen princess Luo Lan into a legitimate queen. Luo Lan had stated a location in the message on the Thoughts Letter Paper and Blackie flew to that exact spot. When Lin Yuan, Su Yiren, and Liu Jie’s feet hit the ground, they saw Luo Lan, who had passed through the tunnel. Su Yiren frowned slightly when she saw that. “Luo Lan, you might have become the ruler of the imperial court, but your throne would still be shaking if you didn’t have Lin Yuan’s help! What you should do now is to pay attention to your safety! What if someone found out that you came alone and tried to assassinate you?” Luo Lan was shocked when she heard what Su Yiren said. It was true that she had been overjoyed with the knowledge of Lin Yuan’s arrival, but she also had her own frustration of not having any experts by her side who she could trust wholeheartedly. All of the leaders of Black Gold tribes supported her, but there was no way she could place her full trust in them. The crisis had come about from her father trusting Luo Cai too easily. Her past experience caused Luo Lan to be on guard. When Lin Yuan saw the bitter smile on Luo Lan’s face, he could guess the reason behind it. Red Thorn had grown a new Tongue of Relinquish that Lin Yuan had already used to take control of one of the Truth Association’s experts. This expert had reached Eternal power, and his main fey was a defense-type fey that had reached advanced Eternal. This expert had been killed by the Goddess of Mercy. All of the Truth Association’s experts who the Goddess of Mercy had killed had utterly broken bodies. This expert was the only one with a relatively more complete corpse that the Tongue of Relinquish could release scars into and take control of. Di Wanmi was a Creation Master, and Lin Yuan had not given her a number. But Lin Yuan intended on giving numbers to the combat line of experts Red Thorn had taken control of. This expert from the Truth Association would be Eternal Weapon One. Since Lin Yuan had Begin Lady, Eternal Weapon One would not have great importance to Lin Yuan. As the Red Thorn’s Tongue of Relinquish regrew, the second, third, fourth, and fifth places could make up for the potential loss of Eternal Weapon One. Lin Yuan decided to place Eternal Weapon One by Luo Lan’s side to protect her. By protecting her, the foundation of the entire Iron Hammer Federation and one of the pillars of the Startling Lines Continent would be safeguarded. Just as Lin Yuan made his decision, Luo Lan felt exceptionally bitter. Compared to Jin Qianxun and Yi Huailong, she had spent the longest time with Lin Yuan. She was even a member of the Astronomical Parliament, meaning that she had an advantage over Yi Huailong and Jin Qianxun. She also had more of Lin Yuan’s trust than they did. But compared to both of them, she had a shortcoming that could not be overlooked.
