Tang Xian's true identity, or should I say, the true identity of the masked freak, was already known to Liu Lang.
That was one of his conditions for survival, as long as he spoke of what he knew.
But in the end, Liu Lang didn't speak up.
During the smuggling plan that day, Song Que was also in the iron forge; he admired Liu Lang's unyielding spirit and said:
"Tang Xian went outside the Pyramid, and not long ago, I saw him again, which ans he survived out there."
Liu Buding was stunned:
"Outside... Doesn't going outside an death by the harsh environnt?"
"I think so too, but maybe he has so other way?"
Song Que paused then continued saying:
"Anyway, I'll try my best to contact Tang Xian. Before you are sent to the eighth level, if Tang Xian knows about this, he will surely co to rescue you. Without your help, Li Xiaoyu wouldn't have lasted until then."
"Who is he, even more formidable than you?" asked Liu Buding blankly.
Song Que smiled and said:
"He is much more powerful than , the most miraculous existence in this world."
"Then I want to go too. Wherever Liu Lang goes, I want to go there," Liu Buding earnestly said.
Liu Lang said, "My lord... You probably can't contact him, right?"
Song Que nodded somberly, struggling to say:
"That's why I said you need luck. He does indeed carry a teleportation fissure to the Pyramid, but when he will return to the Pyramid or go to the mining area is unpredictable. Only he can contact ; I have no way to contact him."
What Song Que could do now was to gather as much intel as possible within the Pyramid, through top technologists Yu Xiaozhe and Lin Sen.
But if Tang Xian doesn't co to the Pyramid, Liu Lang's life would not be spared.
He couldn't just release Liu Lang by force.
Even his other self couldn't do it.
Because here, he had no power at all, and his other self was nothing but a mad commoner in the Pyramid.
Liu Lang ate all the food that Liu Buding brought, without leaving a crumb.
It was ti to end the visit, and Liu Lang said:
"Go back, Buding."
"I will co to see you again!" Liu Buding nodded reluctantly.
Then Liu Lang turned to Song Que and said:
"Life is but a big gamble. My lord, you have done your best. If I live, it's the life you've given . If I don't, it has nothing to do with you."
Song Que didn't say anything more. Urged by the guards, he took Liu Buding and left.
...
...
After the defeat in the Yuepela Plains war, a small number of voices accused Song Que.
The Masked Chopper Hero appeared before too many people, which made it impossible to cover up the events of that day.
The onlookers of the middle layers accused Song Que of cowardice, for missing a good opportunity.
So from the upper echelons lanted that Song Que had failed to keep the crystals of the disaster-level boss creature.
Others regretted that humanity did not obtain the Soul Crystals of the disaster-level boss creature.
Although the eighth level remained solely under the control of the Li family, their generous offering of Judgnt Knight sales kept people from being eager to advance to new levels.
After discovering the power of the Judgnt Knights, the demand and orders for these chanical bodies skyrocketed.
Even Lincoln Fortress, a step away from the eighth level, purchased nearly a hundred Judgnt Knights.
People also eagerly hoped that the ninth level of the Pyramid would house even more powerful chanical bodies.
What the opening conditions for the ninth level of the Pyramid were remained unclear to many fortresses, but the Soul Crystals of the disaster-level boss creature could surely et any condition.
Thereby, so believed Song Que had caused humanity to lose substantial assets.
But these were only a minority.
Most people still supported Song Que. After all, humanity was mostly on the defensive during the war.
As for the identity of the Masked Chopper Hero, so high-ups had figured it out.
But everyone kept silent.
How could an Eden demon child help humanity?
And how could the prophecy on the Stele of the Pyramid be incorrect?
In the federal eting room of the seventh level, everyone showed a kind of unspoken agreent.
They all pretended not to guess the connection between the Masked Chopper Hero and Tang Xian.
Song Que also recognized these people's true colors. He no longer said much. His words would not change their minds.
After the war in the Yue Pella Plains ended, humanity obviously no longer needed a supre commander.
However, most people were still optimistic about Song Que, and his chances of being re-elected in the next war were high.
When the next war would be, was precisely what these people were discussing now.
The term "Beast Court" also appeared for the first ti in the human councils.
Interestingly, even after the deaths of thousands upon thousands of talented individuals, the upper echelons still didn't realize the power of the Beast Court.
In their eyes, that group of beasts might have intelligence, but it was still far lower than that of humans.
A commanding group made of wild beasts?
So even snickered when they heard about it.
Song Que didn't bother to explain. Today, he was silent, rely to talk with Li Wanye.
As the eting ca to an end and people gradually left the room, Song Que approached Li Wanye and said:
"Li, I would like to talk to you."
Li Wanye, not surprised at all, bluntly said:
"My dear nephew, if it's about that prisoner, we've already discussed it. He could live by giving up what he knows. I gave him a chance, but he wouldn't speak."
"Then you could punish him by sending him to mine, seizing and forfeiting his assets. But why send him to the eighth level? I don't know what's there."
