Chapter 146: 099 General (Second Update)

After the siblings had said what they wanted to say, they bid farewell to Zhou Yan and left. It was already seven in the evening, and the sky had not completely darkened; the Safe Zone was still bustling.

After their departure, Zhou Yan hurriedly left with the Water Element Elemental Crystal and an Elemental Stone in his hand, walking to the villa area and entering one of the heavily guarded villas.

When he entered, he happened to see a dignified middle-aged man coming out. Watching the other man approach, he immediately halted his steps, stood erect, and saluted, “General Li!”

The middle-aged man returned the salute and asked, “What brings you to seek General Song so late?”

Zhou Yan didn’t speak; his face was stern, showing no extra expression, but his tightened fingers betrayed his underlying nervousness. Although the other was an Ordinary Person and had not undergone Awakening as a superpower user, he held a fear for this man. This was a man who had long held a high position, radiating an air of authority. The intangible pressure made breathing seem difficult for him.

He said, “I’ve come to report some information to General Song.”

He did not specify what the information was, and General Li did not ask. He only gave Zhou Yan a deep look and said indifferently, “Go ahead inside.”

Zhou Yan nodded respectfully and quickly stepped inside. General Li watched his departing figure with a deep frown.

He had come to find General Song because of a rumor circulating within the Safe Zone. He did not believe such rumors, even though there were now many unique superpowers emerging. He always felt that the Awakening of superpowers was too miraculous; humans couldn’t possibly possess such determinative power. _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

General Song shared his view; neither believed the rumor.

Although the Elemental Crystal was only the size of a dragon’s eye, it was larger than any Crystal Core that had appeared so far, glowing brilliantly under the light as if it were a finely crafted top-grade gemstone.

General Song, looking at the items in the box, suddenly had a guess. He looked up at Zhou Yan and said, “I remember you gave me one of these stones before, claiming it was so hard that not even a bullet could penetrate it. I’ve already sent the item to the research team, and they’ve yet to report back; now you’ve brought it once more and added a Crystal Stone. If I’m not mistaken, you’re trying to tell me that these Elemental Crystals are found within such black stones, correct?”

Zhou Yan nodded, speaking solemnly as he succinctly relayed Fang Yuxin’s words, “General, your guess is correct; these Elemental Crystals were indeed discovered within such stones, and they have a very magical function—Ordinary People can absorb them and awaken as superpower users.”

Even as a worldly and experienced General Song heard his words, his expression changed instantly. He narrowed his eyes, his penetrating gaze fixing on Zhou Yan, and asked in a hoarse voice, “Do you realize what you’re saying?”

Zhou Yan was aware that such matters were beyond belief, so he quickly said, “General, someone indeed told me this! I think it’s quite easy to verify; we just need to have someone try. That person is currently in trouble; I don’t think she would intentionally offend us.”
