Chapter 1225: Chapter 110: Night of the teor Shower (Part 2)
The room was booked on the fifth floor, with Gongsun Ce and Qin Qianbai disguised as father and son in one room, while the three ladies stayed next door. As soon as they entered, Gongsun Ce imdiately put down his luggage and pulled open the curtains. Amidst the ever-changing buildings outside, a faint crack could be seen. At the far end of this view was a patch of lush green grass, with a grand black skyscraper standing at its center. Its presence was strikingly different from the lively, ever-changing city around it, resembling a solemn statue overlooking a mirage.
This spot allowed them to observe the headquarters of the Otimis family, which was another reason everyone chose this hotel.
“Dad, what are you looking at?”
Gongsun Ce shivered and turned to say, “Miss Qin, please don’t call that in private; it makes seem so creepy!”
Qin Qianbai took off her baseball cap and stretched. With a series of popping sounds that resembled a string of exploding beans, she transford from a rebellious 1.4-ter tall child into a slender 1.7-ter tall teenager, with a proportionate and graceful figure. Her clothes, ant for a child, instantly beca short, exposing her fair abdon. She wrapped her arms around Gongsun Ce’s neck and whispered, “Daddy～”
Gongsun Ce shuddered: “Stop that!”
“Ah Ce is excited. Such a pervert.”
“Logically, can you bla for this?” Gongsun Ce moved aside, “Co on and use your magical martial artist intuition.”
Qin Qianbai cast a glance in the distance and closed the curtains.
“There’s sothing in that building. It’s a totem.”
“Excellent,” Gongsun Ce whistled, “The primary task is complete.”

Onowell: The main goal of this infiltration is to disrupt Gaius’s ascension plan. We know his plan is to use the civilizational front to achieve the United Totem, and to do this he must et three conditions: 1, beco the President of the United States as the symbol of civilization; 2, gain the admiration and support of the citizens; 3, control the core totem of the civilizational front. We can’t change the citizens’ minds, but we can make him fail to et the conditions himself. If the presidential election is interrupted, or if he loses control of the core totem, the entire plan will collapse by itself.
Aorus: The core defense array of teor City is the totem of the Otimis family, and I suspect it’s also a key component sitting in the capital’s front lines. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen the totem myself. You’ll need to confirm its activity location personally.
Gongsun Ce: That’s simple, Miss Qin can take a look.
Aorus:…What are you talking about?
Qin Qianbai: Yes. One look and it’s clear.

Since separating from her superpower a few days ago, Miss Qin has been in a peculiar state. She still practices martial arts daily and interacts with everyone normally, but she’s always pondering strange questions. She cornered Shiyu Ling for half an hour asking “how to make a microsecond last longer,” driving Illusion Moon Venerate into frustration; she passionately asked Qiluo to describe in detail the feeling of information invisibility, forcing the speechless Qiluo to use invisibility to escape; she asked Alandia and Yan Qi what “eternity actually looks like,” and finally asked Gongsun Ce, “what color is telekinesis.”
“Miss Qin, take it easy.” Gongsun Ce said, “You may surpass Qin Ming.”
“Hmm…”
The curious baby has also evolved; for instance, her intuition has beco extrely sharp, turning into sothing unreasonable. Now, Qin Qianbai can feel the totem aura in that building from miles away, sothing that rational reasoning can’t substitute at this mont. Gongsun Ce, while pleased, is also worried, for it indicates that the totem of the Otimis family is very powerful, and attempting to act directly might not be so simple.
“Miss Qin, if you can sense it from such a long distance, wouldn’t the Champion detect us if he were here?” Gongsun Ce considered another possibility.
“Sensing is not as reliable as radar. With Qiluo safeguarding everyone and actively retracting our aura, even the Champion won’t detect us out of thin air.” Qin Qianbai said, “However, if we et by chance, there’s nothing we can do. In that encounter, I will surely be discovered, and the conflict will begin imdiately.”
“Try to avoid encounters, that’s all we can do.” Gongsun Ce took out the travel plan, “Adjust your state, dear son, our first two stops this afternoon are popular spots for disguise, and the third stop is a al accompanied by a visit to the Chenxing Disaster Relief morial.”
“To see disaster records?”
“To investigate the old case nad after a disaster from 15 years ago.”
·
At the sa ti, in the Chenxing Disaster Relief morial.
The morial is an oval-shaped gray building, and Gaius doesn’t know that his foes are resting in a small hotel just two streets away, nor does Gongsun Ce understand that if they had set off two hours earlier, they would’ve t the Vice President by chance. They were almost passing by in this gigantic city.
Perhaps one person knows, but she says nothing. Xu Ying leaned against a load-bearing pillar, gazing at a blurry photo taken by satellite: several fearso depressions resembling teor craters appear throughout teor City, the largest crater located in the north of teor City, which is now where the Otimis family headquarters sits.
“Hmm…mm!” Xu Ying examined it carefully and chuckled, “This isn’t the fault of experint No. 52! This experint should be harmless to life forms.”
“In reality, citizens are injured annually due to geological shifts caused by Huang Guang.” Gaius said.
“Nothing can be done about it. The life of this era is too fragile, even the frail life before King Pingdeng’s enlightennt was stronger than you folks!” Xu Ying examined him with interest, “Though it’s only been two cycles of radiance, it feels incredibly long to you…how did you survive? How did you develop the civilization you have today?”
