Chapter 1697: Chapter 47: Three Programs

One is in pursuit, the other is fleeing.

On the Golden Behemoth, many enormously powerful weapons were equipped—now, it truly transformed into a terrifying beast, just like its name suggests.

The new Asla seemed incredibly small in front of the Golden Behemoth.

Lei Yaz attempted to communicate with Ke Duojin, but unfortunately, no matter what he said, all he received was even fiercer attacks—is Ke Duojin really planning to kill him here?

Without a doubt.

The attacks from the Golden Behemoth, even if only one hit lands, would likely crush both him and the new Asla directly.

“Lei Yaz, stop wasting your energy… you can’t escape!”

“I will escape!” Lei Yaz didn’t even look back and directly retorted to Ke Duojin at this moment: “Villains in Magical Energy Theatre dramas at the Golden Stage all like to say that, but the protagonists always escape!”

“If I kill you, I will become the Prince of the Undersea City, I will be the protagonist!” Ke Duojin suddenly raged.

Lei Yaz had already determined some matters. At this moment, Ke Duojin clearly was in some abnormal state like those competitors on the World Snake track.

Lei Yaz instinctively looked up, intending to see if there was a strange black sphere above that day—however, within the environment of the trench, besides darkness, he saw nothing.

He took a deep breath, the darkness of the trench seemed to exert endless pressure on him… His thoughts were compressed, and bouts of dull pain began to spread throughout his brain. The sense of resistance he felt during the All Star Flywheel competition day became hot again.

This period, within the imperial palace, Lei Yaz never forgot that day’s events… only his mother’s appearance soothed him a lot, allowing him, for once in a while, to truly settle down and plan to learn something.

However, the treatment from the Emperor gradually diluted the incident that occurred during the All Star Flywheel competition day—until now, Lei Yaz suddenly came back to his senses.

The Emperor is still that Emperor.

“What have I been doing this past week?!” Lei Yaz was suddenly shocked, and then cold throughout his body, feeling that the past week, he seemed possessed, unconsciously throwing those previous events behind.

“Lei Yaz, where are you running to! Face your death!”

“Buddy, I really don’t want to use violence on you!” Lei Yaz suddenly stopped and even turned the new Asla forcefully, directly confronting the incoming Golden Behemoth!

“Hahaha! Lei Yaz, have you finally come to your senses? If so, that’s good—let me use the Golden Behemoth to crush your body!”

Lei Yaz, however, took a deep breath, piloting the new Asla, rushed at full speed towards the Golden Behemoth!

We collided!

This is a duel of courage and nerve—a test of who would flinch. Only the loser would change direction, while the winner perserveres until the end!

“With your little Flywheel, you want to threaten my Golden Behemoth? It was re-engineered by the Magic Energy Institute… Lei Yaz, you lost!”

“Lost is lost!”

Bang—!

The new Asla and new Golden Behemoth collided fiercely! At the last moment, neither dodged—in the instant of collision, the head of the new Asla was instantly compressed into a lump.

Lei Yaz’s body was thrown forward.

But at this moment, Lei Yaz reached out, tightly grabbing onto the gun barrel of the Golden Behemoth, spinning during the throw, then using force to directly pounce on Ke Duojin.

His fist… amidst the flight, harshly impacted Ke Duojin’s cheek—a membrane absorbed much of the force, so Ke Duojin didn’t suffer too badly, but the impact force still threw him out of his seat!

“Ke Duojin, snap out of it! If you don’t wake up, I’ll hit you awake!”

These days, being beaten by Girl Liuge every day… though he still couldn’t quite catch up with Liuge, Lei Yaz’s combat ability had indeed improved significantly.

He grabbed Ke Duojin’s collar with one hand, raised his fist, and threw punch after punch towards Ke Duojin’s face during the fall.

The Golden Behemoth lost control at this moment, crashing along with Asla into the trench wall—the tremendous impact embedded the Golden Behemoth directly into the wall.

And Lei Yaz and Ke Duojin also fell deeper into the trench.

…

Above, Louis XXXIX rode his dragon-shaped Flywheel, gazing below with an expressionless face.

At this moment, a figure appeared beside the Emperor—Girl Liuge also rode towards her exclusive Flywheel.

Liuge gazed at the trench’s abyss, shaking her head: “Friend turned against friend, life and death won’t awaken his Blue Blood… seems he did indeed successfully merge with Blue Blood, but it’s clearly only a merge. After all, it’s not Royal Blood, there’s simply no way. Louis, don’t waste time on him.”

“Don’t you think, even without using Blue Blood’s power, Lei Yaz this time wasn’t just passively beaten?” Louis XXXIX suddenly smiled: “He should have this kind of courage and ferocity.”

Girl Liuge, however, shook her head, “Louis, since this Lei Yaz succeeded in merging Blue Blood, maybe other things can also be merged. I’ve checked all records from the Sixth Institute back then, and I have the documents of Joash’s modifications to Lei Yaz.”

“What do you want to do.” The Emperor glanced at the girl.

Liuge plainly said: “His mother is a hybrid of a sea monster… it’s simple, do everything according to these documents. Find a woman who is a sea monster hybrid and combine her with a male from the Undersea City, give birth to offspring, then merge with Blue Blood. If one doesn’t work, try two, if two fail, then three… with enough specimens, we’ll catch one or two better ones.”

But when she saw the Emperor wasn’t reacting, she frowned slightly, “You… you don’t want to?”

“Why wouldn’t I.” The Emperor, at this moment, slightly smiled: “Just execute according to your plan… However, for him, I currently don’t want to give up either. Anyway, executing your plan from now will take some time to yield new results. So, why not try a bit more within this blank period.”

“As long as you agree.” The girl nodded, then said: “There might be issues with Kaia over there; after all, it’s not inside the Undersea City… I’ll go check it out.”

“Be careful.” The Emperor softly said.

Liuge immediately rode on her Flywheel and left… Louis XXXIX looked down the road, still overshadowed by the whereabouts of Boss Luo No.3.

The Emperor shook his head, somewhat helplessly: “Such a leisurely temperament indeed.”

At this time, the Emperor’s Black Dragon Flywheel under him swung lightly a few times, then spread its wings and dove into the trench’s abyss.

…

…

What the exploration ship finally landed on was a place with many pillar-like rocks crisscrossing the scene like a spider web—this was already within the depths of the underwater mine.

The traces of past mining were clearly visible… Professor Jin Kailun silently stepped off the exploration ship—or rather, he was being pointed at by the weapons of the Gendarme Team behind him, forced to walk off the exploration ship.

Kaia was indeed the leader of this transaction for Longgang, and she could freely command these members of the Gendarme Team—how could she not have command? She had already been brainwashed by the Kingdom Government, and her loyalty to the Emperor now was likely to make her easily sacrifice herself.

Longgang was also brought out at this time.

Professor Jin Kailun showed a trace of excitement upon seeing Longgang—for many years, he had poured considerable effort into Longgang, and they were both mentor and friend. Professor Jin Kailun even hoped that Longgang would succeed him and become the new leader of [Destiny].

Only now, Longgang’s eyes were silent, like a walking corpse, being pushed from behind by the Gendarme Team, with the once spirited demeanor disappearing completely.

The professor kept recalling the content he saw on the secret edict.

According to the Emperor’s decree, a special virus would be planted on Longgang. This virus had an infection rate of nearly one hundred percent for the Sea Demon Clan.

When the Sea Demon Clan retrieved Longgang and brought him back to their lair—then this would be a terrifying disaster for the Sea Demon Clan.

In recent years, the Sea Demon Clan had hidden in the deep sea, constantly seeking opportunities to attack the Undersea City—the Undersea City was not powerless to retaliate, and all the attacks and invasions over the years had been repelled, whereas the Sea Demon Clan was already worn out, weakened after years of effort.

The branch of the Sea Demon Clan that split from the Undersea City back then, most of their lineage due to conflict has disappeared over the years—living deep in the sea without a safe harbor like the Undersea City, and facing a crisis of decreasing population, the Sea Demon Clan was forced to engage in alternative breeding.

They even used suitable creatures from the deep sea as a breeding ground for their offspring—this is also why the Sea Demon Clan’s appearance became increasingly strange.

The Limoria people’s bloodline continually diluted, merging with the deep-sea creatures’ bloodlines over time; whether pure Limoria blood still existed in today’s Sea Demon Clan, Professor Jin Kailun himself held a skeptical attitude.

However, this evolutionary route had its advantages—for instance, the Sea Demon Clan could fully adapt to the deep-sea environment and survive under harsh conditions.

But the Sea Demon Clan’s lair remained a mystery to this day, even the Kingdom Government hadn’t discovered the lair—popularly referred to as their holy place.

Longgang was a child who emerged from the Sea Demon Clan’s holy place back then; he was a hybrid nurtured by the Sea Demon Clan to infiltrate the Undersea City at great cost… The professor could vaguely guess Longgang might have a special status among the Sea Demon Clan, but he did not know what Longgang’s exact status was.

However, since the Emperor’s secret edict indicated that Longgang might be taken back to the Sea Demon Clan’s holy place…

“Professor, have you thought it through?” Lady Kaia’s voice suddenly rang in Professor Jin Kailun’s ears.

“Thought what through?” The professor was startled internally, yet he showed no emotion.

Lady Kaia said calmly, “Later when meeting the Sea Demon Clan, are you planning to complete this heartfelt mission, or will you speak out the Emperor’s plan in front of the Sea Demon’s envoy?”

“Of course, it’s to complete the Emperor’s plan.” Professor Jin Kailun said expressionlessly: “No matter how much of my secrets the Kingdom Government holds, there’s one thing you guessed wrong.”

“What.” Kaia turned her head.

The professor said calmly, “[Destiny] has indeed been focused on overthrowing the Undersea City Emperor’s rule all along. But our goal is simply to escape from being ruled over, not to destroy the Undersea City. Essentially, I’m still a citizen of the Undersea City—the Sea Demon Clan is the greatest enemy of the Undersea City and is constantly thinking of destroying it… I can distinguish between major issues.”

“Is that so.” Lady Kaia smiled slightly: “I hope it’s really as you say, Professor.”

But Professor Jin Kailun shook his head, whispering, “I hope you, too, will have clarity one day.”

Lady Kaia said calmly, “I’ve always been very clear.”

At this moment, a member of the Gendarme Team swiftly returned, “Lady Kaia, a group of Sea Demon Clan has been found ahead, apparently, they’re here to receive Longgang.”

Lady Kaia directly asked, “What kind of Sea Demons are there?”

The member quickly replied, “There are three Giant Shark Sea Demon warriors, a whole team of Nightmare Sea Demons, about thirty in number. In addition, there’s a Sea Demon being guarded, seems to be of royal lineage!”

“Royal lineage?” Lady Kaia turned to look at Longgang, who was mentally devastated from nerve damage, and coldly chuckled: “Now I’m really curious about this guy’s true identity… to have the Sea Demon Royal Family personally come to receive.”

“Lady Kaia… The Sea Demon Clan is clearly well-prepared this time.” The member of the Gendarme Team spoke worriedly: “But given the current manpower and equipment we have, I’m afraid…”

“What is there to be afraid of.” Lady Kaia said calmly: “The Third Legion is outside; if anything happens here, this group of Sea Demons won’t escape… As for us, for the Undersea City, what is there to fear!”

The members of the Gendarme Team stood at attention, shouting long live the Undersea City.

Professor Jin Kailun sighed at this moment: Right, the Third Legion was distributed throughout the trench; these Sea Demons wouldn’t escape—thus the Emperor didn’t worry about me defecting during the battle.

If he defected, he couldn’t get out himself.

“Let’s go meet these deep-sea bugs.” Lady Kaia ordered at this point, and the group proceeded with Longgang.

…

…

On [Flywheel]’s control panel, the distance between both sides was marked.

“Lei Yaz seems to have stopped moving at this time.” The Maid brought [Flywheel] to Boss Luo’s side and whispered.

Boss Luo looked at the distance between both sides—the distance was so far away.

Not as good as a seasoned driver driving, huh? He was just a rookie.

Meanwhile, though, Konghai also stopped… Boss Luo quickly drove [Flywheel] over to Konghai.

“Mr. Konghai, is there anything?” Luo Qiu asked curiously.

Konghai first fell silent, and after a while, looking in a certain direction, he thought and said, “It’s like I’ve been here before.”

“Really.” Boss Luo said: “And then?”

“Over here.” Konghai pointed toward a certain place in the dark, “There’s something there, seems to be calling me.”

With that, he headed directly in the direction, starting [Flywheel] and diving down.

Boss Luo looked at the Maid and laughed, “It seems this Emperor’s outing has many arranged programs. I honestly want to go everywhere.”

What to do when you’re greedy?

Two shadows then leaked from Luo Qiu’s back and floated off in different directions.

Boss Luo, Boss Luo No.2, Boss Luo No.3—all heading off.
