Chapter 332: Mankind’s Strongest Man
“The City of Hope is just ahead. Go by yourself. I’ve notified the people in the city to pick you guys up, so I won’t go in,” said Su Bai as he pointed to a place not far from the City of Hope.
“Thank you, Senior Su! We can just proceed by ourselves from here.”
“Thank you for your life-saving grace!”
These hundreds of humans clambered down Planet Eye and turned around to thank him.
With a wave of his hand, 1314 slowly flew up and gradually disappeared from these people’s sight.
“Howl~” Ah Bai is also a reliable senior now! the elf sat on his shoulder and exclaid.
“Haha! I guess I am.”
He burst out laughing and shook his head lightly. A heavenly king-level Pet Tar was indeed considered a top existence in human society.
“Let’s go! We should go back to the Sea Abyss,” Su Bai looked at the lush ground and said.
Planet Eye quietly activated teleportation, and when it reappeared, it was in the misty Sea Abyss.
Although Blue Planet’s situation had undergone drastic changes, the focal point was still the Sea Abyss. The reason was naturally the Hidden Realm of the Lord of Infinite Matter.
It was precisely because the attention was here that the royal families had the opportunity to transfer a large amount of capital to Sirius.
Part of the high-ranking aristocratic Pet Tars, who had withdrawn from the Void Realm, had gone to Planet Hope, while the rest were still here in the Sea Abyss.
His parents were also here.
Planet Eye quickly flew to Yulong Gymnasium’s gathering place, which had changed a lot. A few more floating islands like war fortresses, which were full of technology, could be seen around.
It seed like they had been evacuated from the Void Realm.
“Hello, senior brother!”
“Look, senior brother is back!”
When they saw Su Bai arrive, many disciples could not help showing excitent and waving to him happily.
He nodded at them in greeting and soon ca to the office building of the God Dragon Division.
“Senior brother, were you at the Vatican over the past ten days? I couldn’t contact you at all!”
It was Ouyang Du and He Yu who greeted him.
“Yes, I didn’t expect that the Hidden Realm would hinder the exchange of information, and there was no way of coming out so quickly.”
He nodded, his gaze fixated for a while on He Yu.
“I’m sorry, senior brother. I actually thought you’re just asking casually, and I didn’t want you to go to the Vatican to take a risk, so I didn’t help you check the information there carefully. This is all my fault.” She apologized to him.
“Don’t do that again and don’t make decisions for of your own accord. If you’ll just do that, then don’t follow .”
He glanced at the woman, his voice a little cold.
“Yes, I promise that there won’t be a next ti.” The woman quickly lowered her head.
Ouyang Du was about to tell him what had happened these days, but Su Bai raised his hand and refused to hear the other. “Other things can wait. Take to my parents first.”
“I understand.”
The man nodded, and while leading him, he said, “Senior brother, your parents were rescued by Du Qiankun, the first curator of the gymnasium, but...”
“But what?” Su Bai looked up. “You can just say it. Nothing is unacceptable at this point.”
“Okay.”
Ouyang Du nodded and continued speaking. “Although they were successfully rescued, their contract books were destroyed. In addition, as their levels are relatively low, even though the gymnasium is treating them ticulously, they will probably only have a decade or so left to live.”
Hearing this, Su Bai was silent for a while and did not speak for a long ti.
He soon followed Ouyang Du into a yard where his parents were currently staying.
In the yard, his parents were sitting there drinking tea and chatting. Chen Ruoxue was by their side, looking a little haggard.
Although her parents were fine, her grandmother died when the aliens invaded. At this ti, Su Bai really felt grateful that she was accompanying his parents.
“You’re back!” She smiled slightly upon seeing him.
“Son, where have you been these past few days? Co here!” Mother Su also smiled and waved him over.
“Sorry, I was trapped in a world where I couldn’t get out and I couldn’t receive information from there.” Su Bai walked up to them and guiltily expressed his apology.
He was apologizing to both his parents and to Chen Ruoxue.
Although it was caused by natural factors and was an accident, in fact, if he had been there, these things could have been avoided, so he really felt guilty.
He did not know if it was God’s will that caused him to lose sothing when he obtained a divine pet from Him.
“We’re alright; don’t think too much.” His mother shook her head.
“So things depend on fate and destiny; don’t bla yourself as it has nothing to do with your desire.” His father showed a slight smile.
“I know. Don’t worry.” Su Bai nodded.
“Howl~”
The elf excitedly flew from his shoulder to his mother’s arms. It then inspected the old couple’s physical condition.
While he gazed at his parents, Su Bai had firmly resolved to destroy the Giant Kraken Gymnasium in his heart.
Those people truly deserved to die for bringing misfortune to his family.
His urge to kill those people from the Giant Kraken Gymnasium only grew stronger after he chatted with his parents and got their data from the elf.
It could be seen that his parents already knew that they would be unable to live well for many years in the future, so they wanted to see him get married and start a career quickly.
The most important thing was for him to have a family; it would be best if he had a child.
Alas, the current situation now prevented this. Also, because Chen Ruoxue’s grandmother had just passed away, they did not feel good talking about it, either.
After hearing that Su Yue also had gotten himself a girlfriend, the two were obviously thrilled.
Via Planet Eye, Su Bai let his parents video-call Su Yue and greet their younger son’s girlfriend, Li Xue.
“Okay, Ruoxue has accompanied us for the whole day. Son, bring her out for a walk; we’re fine by ourselves.”
After chatting for a bit more, Mother Su waved her hand and drove them away.
Su Bai spread his hands, feeling a little helpless. He could only leave so things behind before taking his girlfriend out of the yard.
“Don’t think too much; it’s not your fault.” Chen Ruoxue looked at his hesitation and could not help but shake her head.
Su Bai exhaled, not speaking and gently hugging her waist, instead.
He did not know what to say about her. When Cannes fell, her parents happened to be outside discussing business, and by the ti news ca out, her grandmother had already been killed.
At this ti, all he could do was give her a shoulder to lean on.
“Tell about your experience of going out this ti,” she whispered.
“Okay.”
He nodded and explained all his experience in the Vatican without hiding anything.
“You’re already a heavenly king-level Pet Tar?”
After hearing his experience in the ti world, Chen Ruoxue could not help but open her small mouth in surprise.
He smiled bitterly. “I don’t know whether it’s a blessing or a curse. It would be great if the events on Blue Planet hadn’t occurred while I was gone. Many things could’ve happened differently if I had been here, but I was unfortunately away.”
“Of course, it’s a good thing. As for the things that have happened these few days, you don’t have to bla yourself and feel guilty about them at all. Everything was unexpected, and you couldn’t have anticipated it. No one, including , blas you.” Chen Ruoxue shook her head gently.
“Don’t talk about this for now.” Su Bai shook his head and took out a translucent butterfly with a beautiful pattern from his contract book. “This is a Ti Butterfly. It’s the best pure ti monster I’ve found. It has two characteristics of ti; it’s my gift to you.”
“I love it!” She gently accepted the palm-sized translucent, seemingly dreamy Ti Butterfly and then opened her contract book to form a contract with it.
This Ti Butterfly was a low-level sovereign; fortunately, her contract book had reached the two-star athyst grade, so she could now contract pets below the mid-level sovereign grade.
After contracting the Ti Butterfly, it awakened and danced around Chen Ruoxue as it glowed brilliantly.
This Ti Butterfly had two characteristics; one of which was called Ti Shield, which could protect the contractor from the interference of abnormal ti.
Of course, this was only to a certain extent and what was related to its own strength and weakness.
“Compared to this, the gift I brought back for you from my last adventure might be too insignificant.”
While she talked, Chen Ruoxue took out a black egg from her storage bracelet. It was about the size of a chicken egg and full of mysterious patterns.
“This is a mysterious egg. It’s of one-ti use and can be hatched after a drop of blood. It can help you find what you’re looking for.
“The lives it hatches are different, but the effects are the sa. If the things you’re looking for are too precious, you’ll need to sacrifice so precious treasures.
“I have two; I’m keeping one for myself. This is for you.” She handed the egg to him while batting her eyelashes.
Hearing Chen Ruoxue’s words, his eyes lit up and he quickly received the mysterious egg from her.
Su Bai looked closely and imdiately obtained its information from the pet interface.
The guy hatched from this thing was called the Lost Treasure Seeker, a product of the mystery test; unfortunately, it could only be used once.
However, this was still precious. There were many cases of things being very difficult to find, but he needed not to worry about that now.
“I think its value is not worse than the Ti Butterfly, especially to .” He found a box and kept it carefully.
“What are you going to do next? Now that the Hidden Realm of the Lord of Infinite Matter is about to open, I think that we can first use this mysterious egg to improve our strength so more.” Chen Ruoxue turned to look at him.
“Definitely! I won’t leave the Sea Abyss for the ti being. This is indeed a big stage for improving my strength,” Su Bai nodded and said. The Hidden Realm of the Lord of Infinite Matter represented all possibilities.
There were even fruits and treasures that allowed sovereign and even immortal monsters to directly improve their realm. Of course, he could not miss those.
In addition, this was the best place to encounter the people of Giant Kraken Gymnasium and the children of the aristocratic families, for they would certainly not give up this Hidden Realm.
“By the way, don’t you need to deal with the gymnasium?” He looked at his girlfriend.
“No need. Nothing is going on right now.” Chen Ruoxue shook her head before speaking once more. “It’s you who should have a lot of things to deal with. Go on. I’ll be fine. When you finish dealing with them, we will go to Heavenly Abyss and travel together.”
“Okay, I’ll go first.” Su Bai nodded. There were indeed many things he had to deal with.
Leaving his girlfriend’s side, he exited the place and soon saw Ouyang Du waiting for him outside.
“You can tell the general situation now,” he said while he walked.
“Okay,” Ouyang Du nodded and began to talk as they walked:
“Senior brother, a lot of things had happened while you were gone.
“You should know Planet Hope, Sirius, and the Holy Star of the West, so I won’t talk about those more.
“However, in addition to those, there’s the invasion of aliens and void monsters. Now, all kinds of weird creatures are beginning to appear all around the world, and aliens have opened up many channels to occupy Blue Planet.
“Of the three forces, Blue Planet’s human residents are the weakest. We, hence, chose to evacuate. Still, we’re very reluctant to abandon our ho planet and have chosen to stay near it so we can continue monitoring the situation as we wait for opportunities.
“In the Sea Abyss, sovereign monsters, as well as immortal monsters, are very common now. At the bottom of the abyss, immortal monsters have appeared, so the situation has beco very dangerous.
“Still, the powerful humans have all returned, so the situation isn’t that dire.
“Most of the seniors of our Yulong Gymnasium have returned, too. Coupled with the original use of the Mist of Evolution, their strengths have also greatly increased in these few days.
“Except for so people returning to Planet Hope’s base camp, there are a total of six legendary Pet Tars, including Master Zhang Lu.
“The strongest among them are the founder of Yulong Gymnasium and the first curator, Du Qiankun. He’s a senior who rose right after the aura recovered over a hundred years ago.
“He is our ancestor, one of the strongest humans, and has a legendary three-star contract book beyond the epic grade. He is a quasi-mythical Pet Tar with an immortal pet.
“As a Pet Tar with dragon trait, he can be considered the strongest man alive.”
Su Bai was now a heavenly king-level Pet Tar with an epic-grade contract book, and his pets were all sovereigns, but even so, he could already form a contract with immortal monsters.
If he managed to form a contract with an immortal monster, he could be called a quasi-legendary Pet Tar.
This was because the contract book had a setting allowing Pet Tars to contract a monster one level higher than oneself.
Legendary Pet Tars had a legendary contract book, with the existence of immortal monsters.
If a legendary Pet Tar had an eternal monster, he could be called a quasi-mythical Pet Tar.
A mythical Pet Tar corresponded to a law-level contract book and an eternal monster.
Mankind had not yet produced one with a law-level contract book and the present strongest was that guy with a three-star legendary contract book.
Therefore, the founder of Yulong Gymnasium who had a three-star legendary contract book was already at the pinnacle of existence.
Of course, it was rumored that Fang Ziyu, the founder of the Pet Alliance, probably owned a law-level contract book, but he had mysteriously gone missing for more than a hundred years now, so this matter could not be verified.
According to the principle of Occam’s razor, there was no way to prove it so it was regarded as non-existent.
Thus, the peak existence among humans was the owner of the three-star legendary contract book.
The founders of the top ten peak gymnasiums were basically of this strength, but not many founders were still alive today.
So had died in the void world, and so had left Blue Planet early to go on a journey, never to be heard from since then.
Otherwise, the peak gymnasiums, such as Giant Kraken, Giant Ray, Water Sage, and Insect God, would not dare to betray humans so easily.
It was because their ancestors had either died or were already gone that they dared to do so.
Ouyang Du paused and continued after a mont. “The dean told us that the patriarchs of the gymnasium want to see you when you’re back as they’re very curious about you.
“Also, a few days after you left, Zi Wuji suddenly appeared, but he’s gone crazy. According to what I know, his soul should have been changed by the eternal monster, Mother of Despair, and couldn’t be changed back.
“Curator Zi Tianhe appeared and took away his son before announcing his retirent. Bai Chen and Qin Miao, the deans of either division, will serve as regents until the new curator is appointed.”
Speaking of this, Ouyang Du could not help but show an expression of excitent.
“Senior brother, with those events, your chances of occupying the curator position are almost assured. Several masters are very interested in you. Dean Qin said that, after you et them, the position of curator may beco yours. At present, no one else is able to compete with you for it.”
“I see. Is there anything else besides those things?” Su Bai pressed on.
“The other things are small stuff and of no great importance. I’ll organize so key points for you in a mont,” Ouyang Du said.
“Okay, I’ll go see the dean now.” Su Bai nodded. He must et the gymnasium’s grandmaster and even more so Du Qiankun.
Not only to save his parents but also to inquire about many things.
