After the gunshot, the palace went quiet.
Philley’s body released a large amount of Spiritual Energy, a small portion of which surged toward Shen Qionglin, with the majority dissipating into the air.
Shen Qionglin didn’t say much, dropped the rifle, and silently walked back to the gate.
So of the seven or eight Level B Spiritual Ability Users suddenly clutched their heads and knelt down, with the remaining users following suit.
Wang Jixuan made a throat-slitting gesture towards Zheng Shiduo, turned, and walked toward the door, not bothering to watch the ensuing battle.
Evil must be eradicated.
The Spiritual Ability Users here aren’t much good... However, this Professor Shen obviously is an exception.
"When will you start searching my soul?" Shen Qionglin asked, unable to wait.
"On the way back," Wang Jixuan said, "do you care a lot about your students? Should we take them with us as well?"
"I can’t make decisions for them on my own."
Shen Qionglin shook her head:
"Most of them have family in Spiritual Ability City. It’d be better to wake them and ask for their opinion, going to D5 is also a good career move."
Wang Jixuan thought for a mont and then tossed this quandary over to Fu Jian.
"We need to hurry, Commander, you arrange it."
Fu Jian couldn’t help but mutter, "Are you the Commander or am I the Commander?"
"The capable should work more, doesn’t this show your outstanding organizational skills?"
Daoist Wang laughed in response and then headed straight to a nearby infusion laboratory.
He really couldn’t have too many Crystal Cores.
Following Philley’s death, a command was transmitted from the General Command Center of D3 to all levels at Iron Wall Castle. The common human warriors who were still organizing a counterattack imdiately ceased fire, returning to their own barracks to await orders.
It was obvious that the General Command Center of D3 had briefly reached a consensus internally.
An hour later, amid so chaos.
The cliffside airport at Iron Wall Castle opened, and three transport planes took off one after another along the runway, circling half around the reservoir and making a low-altitude rush toward the Combined Combat Zone of D5.
Already, three flying squadrons from the Combined Combat Zone of D5 were circling in the sky, escorting the three transport planes.
The General Command Center of D3 remained silent on this matter, briefly opening their airspace.
Once the three transport planes reached a relatively safe area, General Fu Jian issued a command. Several dozen autonomous guards at Iron Wall Castle pressed the explosion buttons at their sides, detonating the now-empty location of the Thirteenth Institute and two areas of the infusion laboratory.
After the explosion was over, the stationed troops at Iron Wall Castle then ca out and took the opportunity to control the entire fortress.
However, the situation was still not looking good for the D3 Combat Zone.
The stationed troops at Iron Wall Castle were going to welco the second wave of rule from Spiritual Ability City in half an hour—the ergency mobile troops from Spiritual Ability City were on their way.
Inside the three transport planes heading toward D5, the ’passengers’ were entirely different.
The rearmost transport plane was cramd with various types of experintal equipnt.
Because the moving had been so hasty, many pieces of equipnt were simply violently disassembled with core components carried away.
In the middle transport plane, dozens of n, won, and children were sitting quietly by themselves. They were the researchers who had decided to follow Shen Qionglin and their few family mbers.
Most of the research team chose to stay at Iron Wall Castle. In consideration of Shen Qionglin’s feelings, Fu Jian and Wang Jixuan did not make things difficult for them.
Shen Qionglin was the absolute leader of their team; what’s left were just so non-core personnel.
In the frontmost transport plane...
The Buddhist Temple Team was getting a dressing-down;
The Peak Maids had taken off their armor and changed into maid outfits, laughing as they watched the Buddhist Temple Team being scolded.
Shen Qionglin, dressed in a simple combat suit, sat on a sofa in the corner.
She didn’t take any baggage, and in the last monts before the retreat, she had brought several cases of encrypted data discs.
These were the main research results from her past decade and more.
Shen Qionglin was observing Wang Jixuan, who was dressed in X armor, as well as those Spiritual Ability Users who had removed their helts and were sitting despondently.
Wang Jixuan’s scolding was indeed sowhat harsh:
"You guys did great!
"You had nine minutes and twelve seconds of effective combat ti against Philley, and you only caused her two wounds, both of which were superficial."
"Mu Dan took seven pure chanical Bodies and had three minutes and twenty-six seconds of effective combat ti against Philley, taking half her life."
"What did you all so confidently claim before you started fighting?
"Three groups in the Sword Array, you said you had the greatest potential, because this was designed for Spiritual Ability Users, that your Spiritual Energy could unite into one, with thousands of variations, and what was the result? Just this?
"Don’t you dare say you’re my students when you go out!"
A bunch of middle-aged n and won hung their heads in sha.
Only Wu Man, whose brain had been partially destroyed and who had few emotions left, was still listening with a smile, his expression slightly uneasy.
General Fu Jian spoke up, "They did well enough, they at least completely suppressed the severely injured Philley."
The mbers of the Buddhist Temple Team beca even more ashad.
Wang Jixuan snorted:
"After returning, continue intensified training, perform three hundred and fifty full variations in three days!
"But, as this was our proactive strike and we secured a victory, overall, it was pretty good. Alright, rest for now."
Fu Jian said, "There’s also good news to share with you all. The Half-human cha group has started to corner the King-level Blade Beast. The Sword Array has been effective, and the King-level Blade Beast has been severely injured; we might soon hear the good news."
Everyone’s spirits were suddenly uplifted.
Ambushing and killing a corrupt S-level Spiritual Ability User was just trimming an internal tumor from humanity;
Defeating a King-level Blade Beast in a head-on battle was conquering a true enemy of humanity!
The significance of the two was completely different.
Fu Jian turned and headed back to his own compartnt; he had to continue the political maneuvering, applying continuous pressure on Spiritual Ability City and the General Command Center of D3.
