Supreme Electromagnetic Tyrant-Chapter 456 - 309: Thunderous Means_2
Chapter 456: Chapter 309: Thunderous Means_2
The Legendary Second Dan Titanium Cobalt Dragon Man, after donning this power armor, was enough to rival an ordinary Heavenly King.
"I am Pei Zonggang, camp commander of the Great Summer Army’s first brigade," a voice came from beneath the helmet, "What is the situation here?"
The world’s strongest legion, "Great Summer Army," comprised merely three thousand people organized into five brigades. A Titanium Cobalt Dragon Man who could serve as a brigade commander must belong to the absolute core in terms of strength and status within the legion.
"I am Ji Xinghuo," Ji Xinghuo introduced himself.
Then, he briefly recounted the incidents that had just occurred.
Although the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men around him all wore helmets, obscuring their faces, when they heard how Ji Xinghuo had faced the siege of three Legendary powerhouses alone, not a single hair harmed while the enemy sustained one death and two injuries, all turned their heads to look.
Ji Xinghuo, noticing the intense gazes, remained composed and asked, "Commander Pei, what were your orders?"
"To protect you and important items."
Pei Zonggang replied and was silent for a few seconds before adding, "The legion commander has ordered that you board the ship." He waved to the other Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men, "Take everyone at the scene, dead or alive, with us."
The Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men immediately sprang into action, moving bodies and the wounded. Ye Tongjun and the Sandstorm Lord were also subdued and brought aboard the battleship.
"Please follow me."
Ji Xinghuo followed Pei Zonggang as they flew into a side hatch.
The battleship immediately took off, soaring into the high skies. After several minutes of acceleration, it broke through the first cosmic velocity, continuing to rise towards the low Earth orbit.
"The Haidong is the flagship of the first brigade, usually stationed with two companies, totaling 240 Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men," Pei Zonggang led Ji Xinghuo through the warship, explaining, "Since you are not a military person and this involves classified information, I won’t say much more."
"That’s alright," Ji Xinghuo expressed his understanding.
His electromagnetic induction had already scanned the structure of this battleship clearly, knowing it better than the crew members themselves.
Apart from Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men, there were more than three thousand professional soldiers on the Haidong, including both combat and logistical personnel, all Mutants. The warship was equipped with cultivation rooms, a hospital, martial arts arenas, and other various living and recreational facilities, resembling a complete community.
Pei Zonggang then brought Ji Xinghuo to a secret room.
This place was located at the core of the upper levels of the warship, with walls and floors made of several meters thick alloy, layered with protective measures, guarded by a whole team of Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men outside, with Pei Zonggang personally leading several Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men inside.
Multiple gates dropped down, isolating the inside from the outside.
Pei Zonggang lifted his helmet’s visor, behind it was another layer of transparent glass through which his face could be seen, features resolute and sharp-eyed.
"The legion commander has ordered that, until new commands are received, you must stay here."
"Alright."
Ji Xinghuo nodded.
"You can rest. Let me know if you need anything." Pei Zonggang looked at Ji Xinghuo curiously but refrained from further conversation, instead, he explained how to use the features of the secret room and then positioned himself against the wall without moving.
A control panel projected in front of Ji Xinghuo. He lightly tapped a few times, and a bed slid out from the wall; then he lay down on it.
He closed his eyes as though meditating.
Meanwhile, the battleship had already ascended to the low Earth orbit, following Earth’s rotation. The ship had artificial gravity, making it feel no different from being on Earth.
Qing Hong was still in the mountainous region to the west of Chang’an, equipped with a Supergravity Bomb, and noted no anomalies.
A few moments later.
Ji Xinghuo’s electromagnetic induction detected that Ye Tongjun and the Sandstorm Lord were taken aboard a Sky Fighter by the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Men and were flying towards Chang’an.
They were most likely being taken for interrogation.
"If not..." a thought flashed through Ji Xinghuo’s mind, but he immediately dismissed it. If the Qianyuan Association’s influence had penetrated the Great Summer Army, then the military and national leadership were too incompetent, and he could do nothing about it.
As he continued to harbor doubts, half an hour later, a projection popped up in the secret room.
Zhou Yishang appeared in front of him.
"Director Zhou," Ji Xinghuo sat upright and said, "How is the situation now?" Zhou Yishang making a call meant he could reach him, so there was no problem.
"The leader has completed the interrogation of Ye Tongjun and the other," Zhou Yishang said gravely, "The operation to eradicate the Qianyuan Association’s domestic forces has begun. Stay safe on the Haidong and wait for further instructions."
Ji Xinghuo nodded, "That’s good."
The leader was Earth’s most powerful Mind Hacker. Interrogating two Legendary powerhouses was a breeze for him.
From Zhou Yishang’s expression, it was clear that the information gleaned from the interrogation was severe.
Otherwise, the leader would not have launched a cleansing operation overnight.
"The Sword Bureau must conduct another internal inspection, especially at the Water Base, and the swordsmen associated with Ye Tongjun, all must undergo mind interrogation," Zhou Yishang’s face looked terrible, angry yet annoyed.
After speaking, he hung up the communication.
Ji Xinghuo pondered with a thoughtful expression, as the Qianyuan Association’s influence was spread across the globe, shadowed by the Winged People.
Even if ordered by the leader, they could only eliminate the forces within the Asia-Pacific Community Country and the small countries and regions under its control. It was difficult to eliminate enemies within major nations such as the United States, the New Roman Empire, and the West Alliance.
Even if these countries were informed, there would be suspicion, and it would be too late by the time their governments took action.
However, this time the Qianyuan Association had suffered a severe blow and would certainly have to lay low for many years.
"The journey ahead is long..."
Ji Xinghuo sighed. The Qianyuan Association was only the superficial issue—the real deep-seated root was the Winged People.
Without thoroughly resolving the threat of the Winged People, it was impossible to eradicate the problem fully.
Today, the Qianyuan Association had been eradicated, but other forces would emerge in the future, infiltrating Earth to cause chaos.
"Not in my position, not my politics. Let those big shots worry about it."
Ji Xinghuo lay back on his bed and peacefully fell asleep.
Slept until daybreak.
When Ji Xinghuo woke up, he waited for a few more hours in the warship’s secret chamber until someone contacted him around noon.
This time it was Li Hui who made the call.
Although his eyes looked somewhat weary, they were still bright. He said, "It’s over. You deliver the supergravity bomb to the Daxia military, then return to Chang’an."
"So soon?"
Ji Xinghuo was a bit surprised, thinking this operation would take two or three days.
"When the leader makes a move, it is always thunderous and clean," Li Hui smirked scornfully, "The country has been peaceful for too long. Those traitorous vermin have forgotten our strength and think we are easy to bully."
"Enough said, you first come back home to prepare, the leader wants to see you tonight," he said and then hung up.
Ji Xinghuo looked towards Pei Zonggang and said, "I don’t have the item on me, send someone to accompany me."
Pei Zonggang’s face showed surprise.
He had always thought Ji Xinghuo had the supergravity bomb with him until now when he learned the truth. He nodded and said, "I’ll go with you."
A sky fighter flew out of the warship.
Breaking free from the warship’s gravity field, Ji Xinghuo felt lighter, with one side of the window showing the boundless dark space and the other displaying a magnificent Blue Star, which filled his entire field of view.
This was Ji Xinghuo’s first journey into space, viewing Earth from an extraterrestrial perspective.
He was momentarily lost in a trance.
Soon, the sky fighter rapidly descended, Ji Xinghuo felt gravity again, he turned on his cellphone and logged onto the internet, only to find a calm sea, the headlines were still about his forceful entry into the Star Gate from yesterday, although it had cooled down significantly.
"The official report must not be ready," Ji Xinghuo guessed, which would probably be finalized by tomorrow.
Under his guidance, the sky fighter flew into the mountain range.
Ji Xinghuo flew out and landed on an ordinary mountain peak, Qing Hong jumped out from the bushes and spat out a metal ball.
"Catch."
He handed over the supergravity bomb.
Pei Zonggang now knew what it was, cautiously took the supergravity bomb, and boarded the sky fighter to leave.
What to do with it next, whether to destroy or study it, Ji Xinghuo didn’t care.
After all, he had thrown out this hot potato.
He took Qing Hong and quickly returned to Chang’an, slowed down to subsonic speed, and flew to Tianwu Center in Qindu, landing directly on the 137th-floor balcony, passed the identity verification, and entered his home.
As Ji Xinghuo walked into the living room, he saw a tall and graceful silhouette, her stunning face filled with joy, casting an enchanting gaze.
