I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

chapter 120 - Xingyue City Secret Factory


"Dear passengers, welcome to Star Moon City."A sweet broadcast voice echoed through the platform.Qin Tian walked out of the station with a backpack, strolling through the streets of Star Moon City like an ordinary tourist.The deep night sky was like a vast black velvet curtain, studded with countless twinkling stars.Hover cars and flying vehicles zipped through the streets like meteors, while the light pillars lining the roads emitted soft, bright light, illuminating the entire street.In the center of the city stood a colossal energy tower. It was Star Moon City's energy center and the city's symbol. The top of the energy tower shimmered with intense light, like a star on the verge of explosion, reflecting the bright moon and stars overhead.Star Moon City perfectly blended technology and art. With a permanent population exceeding 60 million, it was one of the top ten super-large cities on Silver Gray Star.Coming from the ruined and desolate small town to the modern Star Moon City gave Qin Tian a feeling of being worlds away, as if he had traveled from the old era into the future.Walking to the hotel he had booked, Qin Tian put down his backpack, took a shower, then turned off all the lights in the room. He sat cross-legged on the bed and began his daily cultivation.Unlike before, he had now changed his cultivation sequence, placing the Frost Meditation Technique before the ""Nether Shadow Thunder Prison Skill"".Visualizing the ice and snow image in his mind, his psionic energy spread to every corner of the room, instantly lowering the temperature inside by several degrees.After awakening the 【Intellectual Divine Authority】, his spiritual cultivation speed was incredibly fast. With each cultivation session, his psionic energy would noticeably increase, making him consider whether to develop in the direction of a Psychic Mage in the future.Otherwise, this talent would truly be a bit wasted.Time passed bit by bit, and the meditation technique cultivation was nearing its end.Just then, a black figure suddenly appeared in the room, as if emerging from the shadows on the ground.Qin Tian opened his eyes and said calmly:"You're here."With a thud, the black figure knelt on one knee, lowered his head, and said:"Master."Qin Tian snapped his fingers, and his psionic energy solidified, turning on the lights in the room.He saw a man in black clothing, with an ordinary appearance, kneeling before him, his eyes filled with respect."Li Qi, get up."Qin Tian patted the Night Demon Apostle's shoulder. Previously, Li Qi had been tasked with monitoring him and stayed by his side. Unexpectedly, just before he was transferred to Mist Town, Li Qi was also assigned a different job and came to Star Moon City.This time, he wanted to find out what Li Qi was doing, perhaps it could become the breakthrough to bring down the Wen Family."Yes."Li Qi stood up, the respect in his eyes undiminished. It had only been half a month since they last met, yet he felt the pressure emanating from his master was even heavier,as if his strength had noticeably improved again."Li Qi, tell me about what you've done in Star Moon City these past half a month."Qin Tian raised his hand, signaling Li Qi to sit down and speak."Yes."Li Qi nodded and began recounting his experiences over the past half a month.Actually, it was quite simple.Since being transferred away from Qin Tian, Li Qi was initially arranged to go to Blue Moon Forest next to Star Moon City to hunt spirit beasts above the fourth rank.After killing the spirit beasts, there would be specialized personnel responsible for transporting the spirit beast carcasses to a factory outside the city.Perhaps due to his outstanding performance, after only a few days of hunting spirit beasts, Li Qi was again assigned to the factory to be responsible for its security."This factory is very mysterious. Besides the convoy and the personnel responsible for guarding it, no one else is allowed to enter. The strangest thing is..."Li Qi paused and said, "Every day, a large number of spirit beast carcasses are transported into the warehouse, but the next day, the warehouse is empty."Hearing this, Qin Tian raised an eyebrow:"Are you sure no one is transporting the carcasses out?""I'm sure!"Li Qi nodded heavily."That's strange then."Qin Tian rubbed his chin, "Only things go in, nothing comes out, and it's all spirit beast carcasses. It seems this factory hides a significant secret~""Oh, right, is there any problem with me calling you out?""It's fine. It's my night shift tonight. I made sure the other two were asleep before coming to find you," Li Qi said."It's better to be cautious."Qin Tian said, "Go back now, I'll follow behind you.""Yes!"Li Qi opened the window, black mist spread, and he turned into a crow, flying towards the distance.After flying for a while, Li Qi looked back, but saw nothing."No need to look, I'm right behind you."A calm voice suddenly came from his mind, startling Li Qi, causing him to flap his wings twice."Master, you---?""No need to speak out loud, just «N.o.v.e.l.i.g.h.t» think it in your mind. This is my ability, Mental Link. It allows communication through thought without speaking. Get used to it, I will be using this ability to contact you frequently from now on," Qin Tian said."Yes!"Li Qi continued flapping his wings towards the factory, thinking silently to himself that his master was truly becoming more and more amazing."Actually, it's not that amazing."A light chuckle came from his mind.Li Qi's body stiffened, and he suddenly felt this ability wasn't that great either.Truly, not a single secret can be hidden.The crow landed on the factory roof. Black mist spread, and the next moment, Li Qi returned to the surveillance room through Shadow Leap.He walked to the door, checked the small mechanism he had set before leaving, and found no signs of anyone entering, slightly letting out a breath of relief."Li Qi, I see those two people. Tell me about their situation.""Yes."Li Qi sat in front of the monitor, thinking silently to himself:"One is named Shang Mingyi, and the other is Su Haoan. Both are Spiritual Energy Users personally cultivated by the Wen Family. Their loyalty is no less than that of the Shadow Division members. Shang Mingyi is a Rank 5, 4-star Wind-type Psychic Mage, and Su Haoan is a Rank 4, 3-star Earth-type Psionic Warrior. Their ranks are above mine, but neither of them has bloodline abilities."A factory guarded by Rank 4 and Rank 5 Spiritual Energy Users... it seems the secrets inside are definitely not simple.Qin Tian's gaze was deep. Standing high in the sky, his Night Demon Wings flapped continuously. His aura was perfectly concealed, and his body was in an invisible state.This factory looked ordinary, but for some reason, it gave him a sense of danger. This was also why he didn't immediately enter the warehouse through Shadow Leap.Li Qi and the other two Spiritual Energy Users might just be the first layer of security. There might be even more powerful guardians hidden within the warehouse.He couldn't act rashly yet.Swish~In the surveillance room, Li Qi suddenly turned his head. A circular Black Gate had quietly appeared beside him. Immediately after, a figure stepped out from behind the Black Gate."This—"Li Qi's eyes widened. He couldn't believe that Qin Tian actually possessed such powerful spatial abilities."Don't be surprised, this is also one of my abilities."Qin Tian whispered inwardly. Before the Night Demon Apostle, he didn't need to hide his abilities too much.
