Chapter 1296 - 630: Cloud Mist Island Talisman Array
Liang Yuan said lightly, "I hope I didn’t keep your commander waiting."
The person opposite remained unmoved and smiled, "Since you both have our commander’s invitation, I’ll guide you right away."
Saying this, he signaled with his eyes to the subordinates beside him.
The subordinate understood, nodded slightly, and swiftly retreated to the side.
"Mr. Liang, I am Zhang Mingjie, today I’m in charge of the guard, and who might this be?"
Zhang Mingjie looked at Zhao Kai beside Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan ignored him and asked flatly, "Is your commander on Cloud Mist Island or on Cangqiong Mountain?"
Zhang Mingjie’s eyes flickered, somewhat dissatisfied.
This man called Liang had a poor reputation within the Dove Faction military.
It was said that he had killed many of the Hawk Faction’s high-ranking officers.
Although these people did not share the Dove Faction’s ideals, they were once comrades in arms.
Not even Feng Jiangong or Zhang Yujiang took strong measures to forcibly eliminate these former comrades of the Hawk Faction.
Yet this outsider named Liang dared to kill their former comrades.
In Zhang Mingjie’s mind, although those in the Hawk Faction were wrong, it was still an internal military matter. When was it an outsider’s turn to interfere?
However, he also knew that Liang Yuan was highly formidable. It was said that even in a confrontation with Brigadier Feng, who revealed his atomic dinosaur form, he couldn’t defeat Liang Yuan.
Zhang Mingjie, a small squad leader at the Genetic Species Level, did not have the qualifications to challenge him.
For now, he acted as though he was unaware, smiled, and said, "I don’t know either. How about this, I’ll take you to rest first, and I’ll have someone look for him."
Liang Yuan glanced at him, his formidable spiritual power had long perceived the other’s deceit.
He didn’t expose it, simply saying, "Alright, you go look for him, I’ll wait for him here on the mountain top."
"How can that be, there’s a reception room down the mountain." Zhang Mingjie quickly smiled.
Liang Yuan shook his head, "I’ll stay here."
Zhang Mingjie’s brow furrowed slightly, but finally, he nodded with a smile, "Okay, please wait for a moment."
He looked at the subordinate he had just dispatched; the subordinate had already gone ahead on his hint to find Zhang Yujiang.
"Mr. Liang’s invitation seems to be from two months ago, why are you only here now?"
Zhang Mingjie probed with a smile.
Liang Yuan responded lightly, "Naturally, there were things I couldn’t leave. Why, does your commander expect me to come immediately when invited?"
Zhang Mingjie laughed, "Of course not, since it’s an invitation, you’re naturally welcome to come at your convenience."
He had been rebutted by Liang Yuan twice and knew Liang Yuan deliberately didn’t want to engage. So, he stopped talking and silently watched the two, waiting for Zhang Yujiang to arrive.
Soon, a figure rapidly approached.
It wasn’t Zhang Yujiang but his daughter, Zhang Wenjing!
Zhang Wenjing still wore her neat short hair, her beautiful eyes radiating a sharpness.
Her aura had grown deeper, and the spiritual energy fluctuations around her had strengthened.
Liang Yuan, even without spiritual ability glasses, could feel she must have already begun genetic recombination.
But whether she had succeeded was unknown.
Given her status, on Cangqiong Mountain, resources wouldn’t be lacking.
She must have already reached the main attribute of 100 points long ago.
But genetic recombination isn’t something that can completely rely on external resources.
"Mr. Liang, how rare of you to visit without a prior notice!"
Zhang Wenjing arrived, her charming face smiling, showing no trace of the disdain she had once shown in the Miyuan Rainforest.
Liang Yuan was well aware that she harbored no goodwill towards him.
He got straight to the point, "Where’s your father?"
Zhang Wenjing paused and then said, "Mr. Liang, please refer to him as ’Commander’ in the military camp, and don’t involve our personal identities."
Liang Yuan smirked, "Oh, Commander Zhang then?"
"The commander is on Cloud Mist Island. I came immediately upon hearing of your visit, to greet you."
"Mr. Liang, have you come this time to view the Celestial Abyss Passage at our invitation?"
Liang Yuan neither confirmed nor denied, saying, "I’m indeed curious to see if this so-called Celestial Abyss Passage is as exaggerated as your father’s letter described."
Zhang Wenjing said seriously, "It is definitely even more so. Mr. Liang, please follow me, I’ll take you to Cloud Mist Island to see the commander."
"Recently, a batch of Celestial Abyss creatures has been relentlessly attacking the Celestial Abyss Passage. Several mutated Celestial Abyss creatures have already begun invading days ago."
"Oh? I must see that then."
"Please follow me." Zhang Wenjing promptly invited Liang Yuan.
Liang Yuan, accompanied by Zhao Kai, swiftly followed Zhang Wenjing, flying towards the distant cloud-covered area.
Zhang Mingjie watched the departing figures of Liang Yuan and others, his gaze growing cold.
His close subordinate asked, "Squad Leader, is this the infamous Liang?"
"He doesn’t seem that impressive, can he really fight Brigadier Feng?"
"In his atomic dinosaur state, Brigadier Feng could easily blow up tanks, how could he withstand that?"
...
Zhang Mingjie said sternly, "Enough, don’t ask about things that don’t concern you."
Everyone immediately fell silent, as military discipline was exceptionally strict.
Liang Yuan followed Zhang Wenjing, flying towards the cloud-shrouded area.
Before entering, Liang Yuan was already probing ahead with his spiritual power.
Seemingly sensing the spiritual power fluctuations beside her, Zhang Wenjing discreetly glanced at Liang Yuan, her eyes displaying a slight smile.
Moments later, Liang Yuan detected a problem.
This mist could actually block spiritual power probing!
Upon entering, the spiritual power met noticeable resistance in these mists!
"This mist could actually hinder spiritual power probing?"
While he was still puzzled, Zhang Wenjing smiled, "Haha, Mr. Liang, the mist on Cloud Mist Island is not ordinary water vapor, it contains the spiritual defense array we designed."
"Around the entire floating island, there are such spiritual defense runes, blending with the mist to form a spiritual power barrier."
"People outside not only can’t see inside, but they also cannot detect anything inside through spiritual power."
"Cloud Mist Island is a crucial part of our military base, we cannot let it be easily sensed."
"Not even by superpower users who have undergone genetic recombination."
As she spoke, a trace of pride curved her lips.
Liang Yuan glanced at her, said nothing, but with a slight shift in his thoughts, directly activated the newly awakened Genetic Map.
Spirit Turtle Illusion Snake!
In an instant, his pupils slightly contracted, and a distinct vertical pupil mark appeared.
Between his eyebrows, there was a faint emergence of white phosphorus.
Liang Yuan did not directly enter the recombination transformation state, but after activating the Genetic Map, with a surge in spiritual power, he immediately sensed towards the mists of Cloud Mist Island.
As a torrent of magnificent spiritual power surged out, waves of special frequencies, like pulses, continuously emitted.
Liang Yuan gradually sensed the operational frequency of the spiritual talisman array of this cloud mist.
He adjusted his spiritual frequency based on this operational frequency.
Using the [Illusion Snake Pulse] skill, he emitted spiritual pulses to form resonance with the talisman array!
In an instant, his spiritual power penetrated the island shrouded in mist.
The situation inside the island clearly ’reflected’ in Liang Yuan’s mind!
Liang Yuan couldn’t help but smile inwardly, and before long, he suddenly flickered and flew in another direction.
Zhang Wenjing was startled and quickly shouted, "Mr. Liang, you’re going the wrong way, it’s this way!"
Liang Yuan ignored her, and Zhao Kai quickly followed after seeing this.
Zhang Wenjing also hurriedly caught up and explained, "Mr. Liang, the spiritual runes of our Cloud Mist Island merge into these mists, making the entrance inconsistent. Only by matching our spiritual brand recognition system can you enter, please don’t wander off."
Liang Yuan merely chuckled and said, "I don’t think it needs to be so troublesome."
As he spoke, he stepped forward and flew directly into those mists.
Zhao Kai unhesitatingly followed.
In the next moment, the mists rolled ahead, engulfing the two figures.
Zhang Wenjing was speechless and couldn’t help but say, "Arrogant fool, how could someone like him cultivate to the level of gene recombination?"
She felt speechless and folded her arms, waiting in place for the two to hit a brick wall and come back.
By then, she wouldn’t need to say anything, surely these two would be utterly embarrassed.
She was curious to see what expression that arrogant Liang would have at that time.
After a while, she gradually sensed something was off.
"Haven’t come out yet?"
"Could they be lost inside?"
"Did I overestimate Liang?"
She felt puzzled. The mental shielding talisman array of Cloud Mist Island naturally resonated with the clouds and mists, virtually flawless.
The Heart Core was with her father, and with a thought, her father could change the form of the cloud mist array on Cloud Mist Island.
Could it be that her dad was deliberately trying to teach Liang a lesson, trapping him inside to curb his arrogance?
Thinking of this, she perked up and immediately sent out her spiritual power to quickly approach the cloud mist.
The mists seemed to have a recognition function, sensing her spiritual power, they swiftly parted to form a passage.
She stepped into it, wanting to see the plight of Liang and Zhao Kai trapped inside.
However, after circling within the mist, she couldn’t find any trace of Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai.
Her expression grew increasingly grim.
"Could he have broken the cloud mist talisman array?"
"Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible!"
Zhang Wenjing immediately dismissed her own speculation.
Even if Feng Jiangong entered, he would get confused by this cloud mist talisman array.
This was a cloud mist array controlled by her father, who had refined the Heart Core of Cloud Mist Island.
Thinking of this, she couldn’t afford to consider other hypotheses and quickly pinched a talisman stone.
As the talisman stone lit up, a voice came from within.
"Hello, this is the Cloud Mist Island patrol tower, please state your code."
"Immovable as a Mountain!"
"One moment, code verified. Hello, Comrade Zhang Wenjing. Is there something you need?"
"Did two people just bypass the patrol tower’s spiritual barrier monitoring system?"
"No, the tower system is functioning normally, and no intrusion alarms have been triggered."
"What?"
Zhang Wenjing frowned tightly, "Could they still be inside?"
"Immediately activate the patrol mechanism to check for anomalies within the mist!"
"Yes!"
Moments later, a voice came from the talisman stone: "The patrol mechanism is running, no anomalies detected. Comrade Zhang Wenjing, is there an issue?"
Zhang Wenjing’s expression grew extremely grim.
She had witnessed Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai enter the mist, yet the patrol mechanism couldn’t locate them?
Where did they go?
Could it be that Liang really bypassed the cloud mist talisman array and entered directly?
At this thought, her mind was thrown into chaos.
Is Liang truly this powerful?
She quickly passed through the mist and entered Cloud Mist Island.
At this moment, she saw two figures hovering in the air inside the island, seemingly overlooking the entire Cloud Mist Island!
The one in the black jacket, Liang Yuan, seemed to have heard the commotion and turned to look at her.
"Miss Zhang, your cloud mist talisman array is quite interesting, why does it take you, someone from the inside, so long to enter?"
Zhao Kai couldn’t help but twitch his lips, Brother Liang’s words are truly cutting.
This face-to-face mockery really delivers a stinging slap to the other party.
He already noticed that this female officer named Zhang Wenjing’s face had turned red with anger.
He worried whether she would get infuriated and act immediately.
Zhang Wenjing took deep breaths, unable to maintain her previous pretense.
She stared directly at Liang Yuan: "How did you do it?"
"Heh heh, was it hard?"
"You—"
