Chapter 2030: Chapter 2025: Vision Radar
So, the complex emotions of Old Master Veron seem more understandable.
As mentioned before, while being exiled, the peaceful times at the Academy continue to progress.
For instance, the invitation sent before leaving the Divine Ashes Institute was still received by the guest student, Wen Li.
And she did indeed come directly for a visit, as if eager to showcase some results—indeed, there were results.
"Welcome."
With a gesture, Fu Qian indicated that the young prodigy could sit anywhere she pleased.
This is what is truly meant by "regard someone with new eyes after three days of absence."
On one hand, she has made rapid progress, and on the other, without reevaluating, it’s hard to confirm this.
Power has always been about how it is used, and though Extraordinary Perception is no longer there, it’s not impossible to ascertain Miss Wen’s condition.
The specific method is what’s just been said—reevaluate.
Now I’m a genuine Abandonment King, wielding the Calamity Authority without limitation.
There’s no need to transform into a Mythical Form, as eyeless orange pupils automatically appear above the target’s head, no longer merely deepening curses.
Of course, the effect is pure, without prying further.
But this thing is like a laser radar, with its own astonishing precision—for instance, the speed at which the eyes open.
Different Transcendents normally have varying resistance to different types of powers, generally following the rule that the higher the ranking, the greater the resistance.
For example, the speed at which the eyes open above Miss Wen’s head is much slower than Miss Liushuang’s.
Although there is a ranking difference between them, Fu Qian believes the gap between the Fourth and Fifth should not be this wide—it’s the difference between a God and a human.
Of course, speed is always relative; one millisecond to two milliseconds is still a 100% increase.
For the legitimate Abandonment King, the Calamity Eyes above these two people can pop open in an instant.
In short, this authority of the Tyrant can be used as an unconventional probe, and its precision is quite high.
The only problem is the probe’s intensity is also high; be careful not to accidentally harm someone.
...
The Divine Ashes Institute does have ample resources, actually managing to help Wen Li take this step, not in vain for the guidance I provided back then.
Of course, Miss Wen was also very dedicated, cooperating seamlessly.
Only a detection and assessment, certainly not to explode it, Fu Qian controlled the Calamity Eyes, quickly letting them close after drawing a conclusion.
"Are you used to living here?"
Casually inquiring, Fu Qian walked through the two to find his luxury leather seat.
Both the research assistant and the visitor were quite conscientious, carefully leaving it vacant.
"Hmm... not quite used to it."
Yet the casual small talk seemed to trigger the visitor’s homesickness.
Wen Li slightly shook her head, her expression peculiar.
"I’ll go get a cup."
And facing this display, Ji Liushuang did not hide the curiosity on her face.
After all, the scene of Professor Fu’s failed attempt to abduct her, met with a stern refusal, was still fresh in her mind; it just didn’t seem like the conversation should be this naturally harmonious.
Even the greeting from Professor Fu earlier was quite casual in tone...
Vaguely realizing another interpretation of the matter, Ji Liushuang smiled and got up, indicating she would prepare tea for the leader.
"Thank you, but it’s fine."
After roasting by the fire for so long, a cup of tea indeed suited to moisten one’s throat, Fu Qian gestured to Wen Li to continue.
She certainly would have troubles.
Even with the abundant resources of the Divine Ashes Institute, it’s hard to imagine forcibly advancing someone to the Demigod Path within just a few days.
Especially since this Fourth Phase hasn’t even been around for a few days.
Subjective initiative has its limits, and lacking sufficient knowledge and information support, most advancements to Demigod are like lottery draws.
But facts speak louder than words; why did they succeed?
Simply put, it wasn’t them, it was the Jade Soul Master who achieved it.
With vast knowledge of past and present, treating all as delusions, in mastering ceremonies, they should be a dimension stronger.
...
The Transcendent path is fraught with danger, not just idle talk.
At the time, recommending that Wen Li could hand over Liliyana’s relic, it was both an opportunity and a risk for her.
The progress before was startling, and the somewhat aggressive actions of Divine Ashes made me have some dubious speculations about one of the Academy’s four institutes, thus I thought to involve myself a bit.
Essentially, Wen Li could be considered a probe sent out, to test if I was overthinking.
Even if I wasn’t overthinking, the result could be good for her, but the risks remain significant.
Just like Wen Li’s determination when accepting the invitation to come to the Academy.
The final result proved that this determination was indeed necessary.
When visiting the Divine Ashes, Old Master Veron’s overly low-key stance, even a blind person could see he was preparing to make a dramatic impact.
In response to this result, I did three things.
First, the Return Edict disturbed the accumulated turbid air of the Divine Ashes Institute for years, trying to flush out the snake.
Second, intentionally damaging structures, serving as markers to confirm the state of expulsion.
Third, once again invited Wen Li to visit, to find out more from her situation.
As to why Wen Li indeed readily came, and even managed to come alone?
Similarly simple—would I invite her without a reason?
The special visit implied the seriousness of the matter, no need to consider anything else, just come over to deal with it directly.
Of course, facts proved that this Child of Destiny is indeed remarkable.
My disturbance with the Return Edict was a complete success, instantly triggering a Heart Demon deathmatch.
And by the time she described her symptoms here, the problem was already resolved.
...
The current state of the Jade Soul Master is hard to fully confirm.
Even with immense strength, pulling out five personas to assist the Abandonment King in returning must have been immensely stressful.
But to say they just died like that, someone who always respects the vitality of Psychic Series players like Fu Qian thinks the chance is not so high.
So, after leaving the Abandoned Prison, he’s been trying to find his "Heart Demon."
After all, the rules of the deathmatch are clear—whoever loses bears the Heart Demon brand.
Unfortunately, there’s been no sign of it yet, initially thinking I’d gained a large database.
Though Extraordinary Perception is a factor, it always seemed that one’s circumstances were intriguing.
"The mentors of the Divine Ashes Institute have always been very attentive to me, and after returning last time, they expended a great deal of effort, even consuming various precious materials, items...
"And in the end, they indeed managed to successfully digest that piece of thing, as the mentors put it, I’ve initially touched on Divinity."
Realizing there’s no need to conceal, Wen Li unabashedly, with slightly furrowed but beautiful brows, delivered a shocking statement.
