86: Heading to Shanghai

The complexity and preciousness of the mediums required to cast White God Good Luck Magic far exceeded ordinary people's imagination.

It included not only pearls from ten thousand meters deep in the sea, tender leaves from thousand-year-old ancient trees, but also dozens of rare treasures like crystals formed from Dragon's breath.

Each of these mediums was a miracle nurtured by nature over countless years, and their value was so high that it could make the treasury of any Superpower tremble.

Even if the Special Guard Team used all its strength to search every corner of the Dragon Country, it would probably be difficult to gather such a list in a short time, let alone Han Fei alone.

"If I don't have these mediums, I can't cast White God Good Luck Magic?"

Han Fei's brows were tightly furrowed, his words revealing an unyielding persistence.

"Of course not,"

Luna Fairy Spirit shrugged helplessly.

"White God Good Luck Magic is a Divine-Grade Spell at the pinnacle of the magic world; its requirements are so stringent that it's simply incomparable to ordinary magic."

"Even an S-Rank Expert like me needs a vast number of mediums to barely make this miracle manifest."

Han Fei's expression gradually darkened, and a hint of unconcealed regret quietly crept onto his face.

"So, I can only give up?"

"If you can find the legendary white god's Tower, it's not impossible," Luna Fairy Spirit said leisurely.

"What is white god's Tower?" Han Fei asked curiously.

Luna Fairy Spirit ate a magic cake while slowly recounting the legend of white god's Tower to Han Fei.

Three thousand years ago, it was an era of magical brilliance.

Several Great Sages poured their hearts and souls into it, expending a vast amount of resources to build a miraculous structure at the ends of the earth, specifically for casting the coveted White God Good Luck Magic.

The name of that building was white god's Tower.

It is said that its tower body was built entirely from rare Divine Stone, and whenever sunlight shone upon it, it would emit a gentle and sacred light, bringing good Luck to those nearby.

Legend has it that simply by carrying a bag of pure and flawless white god clear tea leaves, ascending to the top of the tower, and praying sincerely, one could receive the favor of the white god Sage.

After the climber offered half of the clear tea as a sacrifice, the white god Sage would transform the remaining half-bag of clear tea into powerful good Luck, which would nourish the climber like sweet dew, enabling him to turn ill fortune into good and achieve success in all his endeavors on his future Dao.

However, five hundred years ago, a sudden heavenly fire, accompanied by the roar of the Devil King, reduced white god's Tower to ruins.

That place, which once gave countless people hope and miracles, thereafter existed only in legends and memories, becoming a distant dream.

"white god's Tower is the strongest medium for casting White God Good Luck Magic; finding it means you won't need other mediums," Luna Fairy Spirit said slowly.

"But white god's Tower was destroyed long ago..."

Just as the flame of hope in Han Fei's heart was about to extinguish, and his face was filled with dejection, Luna Fairy Spirit suddenly hummed twice, a mischievous glint in her eyes.

"Hmph hmph, look what this is."

With a flick of her slender finger, a dazzling spatial magic light tore through the Void Realm.

Immediately after, a fragment, pure white as snow and emanating a faint sacred glow, slowly appeared in her palm.

"This is..." Han Fei's eyes widened, he had a guess in his heart but dared not confirm it.

Luna Fairy Spirit proudly put her hands on her hips, a mysterious smile playing on her lips, and said, "This is a fragment of white god's Tower, one of my most precious collectibles!"

Upon seeing this, Han Fei gritted his teeth, feeling an impulse to hit someone.

She had such a good thing but didn't take it out earlier, making him fret for half a day for nothing.

Of course, Han Fei could only think these complaints in his heart; he dared not voice them.

"Can this fragment be used to cast White God Good Luck Magic?" A spark of hope reignited in Han Fei's voice.

"Barely. After all, it's just a fragment, and the effect will certainly be far less than the complete white god's Tower. But even so, it's dozens, even hundreds of times stronger than you simply brewing and drinking white god clear tea!"

After listening, an indescribable excitement rose from the bottom of Han Fei's heart.

With such terrifying good Luck augmentation, coupled with his Cheat, Han Fei dared not imagine how terrifying the effect would be.

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck his mind, and he quickly asked, "Mine is Sea white god clear tea; it should only exert its maximum effect at sea, right?"

Luna Fairy Spirit nodded gently, "Indeed. Sea white god clear tea contains the Luck of the deep sea. This Luck can only be fully released in the sea."

After hearing this, Han Fei hesitated slightly but still tentatively suggested, "Then, would you be willing to come to the seaside with me?"

"This..."

Luna Fairy Spirit's expression suddenly became somewhat hesitant.

She lowered her head slightly, seemingly deep in thought.

One must know that Luna Fairy Spirit's awakening this time was not due to sniffing Han Fei's magic cake, but because of a faint voice calling her.

The call was distant and blurry, as if coming from another end of space and time, reaching her ears through the endless Void Realm.

Although the voice was indistinct, her spiritual sense told her that the calling voice contained very important information, too important to ignore!

So, the first thing Luna Fairy Spirit did upon awakening was immediately try to trace the source of this call.

However, having just recovered, her Fairy Spirit power had not fully returned, and many powerful Spells could not be cast smoothly.

She hovered over Tianhe City for a long time, ultimately having to reluctantly give up this search.

It was then that an irresistible aroma wafted into her nostrils.

It was the unique scent of magic cake, which Luna Fairy Spirit knew all too well.

magic cake was not only incredibly delicious but also contained rich, pure energy that could help her restore her dried-up Fairy Spirit power.

Thus, Luna Fairy Spirit unhesitatingly followed the scent to Han Fei's room.

Through some magic, she knew the magic cake belonged to Han Fei, and naturally, she ate it without ceremony.

Not only did it satisfy her appetite, but it also quietly awakened the dormant Fairy Spirit power within her, like dry land welcoming spring rain, gradually restoring her vitality and vigor.

Originally, Luna Fairy Spirit planned to immediately go search for the person who called her after imparting magic knowledge to Han Fei.

But then she reconsidered; so much time had passed that the mental link established by the call had probably completely broken.

If she had searched immediately after waking up, she might have had a chance to find it.

But now that so much time had passed, finding that caller in this vast sea of humanity would be impossible unless she could quickly recover to even one-tenth of her former Peak strength.

And to recover to that level of strength, she would need to eat 100 secondary magic cakes in a row.

Knowing it was impossible, Luna Fairy Spirit no longer worried about the matter.

"Go to the seaside?"

Luna Fairy Spirit pondered, pinching her chin.

"Speaking of which, I'm also quite curious about the changes in this world over 500 years. Alright, I'll go to the seaside with you then. But I can only stay with you for a maximum of three days, after three days, I must return to Tianhe City."

Guarding the Seal Devil King was an inescapable responsibility for her.

Although the Seal was powerful and stable enough not to require her constant supervision, she knew that accidents could always happen unexpectedly.

If, because of her absence, the Devil King took the opportunity to break free, she would become the culprit causing world upheaval. Such a heavy burden made her dare not be negligent in the slightest.

"Okay, then without further ado, let's go to the airport now!"

Han Fei responded readily, his phone screen showing a message Xiao Shuai had just sent.

Xiao Shuai had arranged everything; a special car was waiting downstairs, ready to take Han Fei to the airport at any time.

"Then let's go."

Luna transformed into a magical spirit body, possessing Han Fei, and then went with him to the airport.

Inside the military airport, busyness and order coexisted.

And amidst this hustle and bustle, a particularly solemn and well-equipped military transport plane prominently entered Han Fei's vision.

The Special Guard Team emblem engraved on its fuselage shone with a cold light under the sun, revealing an undeniable majesty.

Greeting Han Fei was a tall, upright military personnel.

Under his guidance, Han Fei quickly entered the cabin.

Soon, the plane's engine roared, like a waking beast, emitting a deafening howl.

Luna Fairy Spirit heard this sound and couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation, "Interesting, to integrate a beast soul into the engine; this is a technology I've never seen before."

The next moment, with a slight bump, these steel wings suddenly broke through the clouds, pointing directly at the sky.

In just over ten minutes, the outline of Tianhe City gradually blurred until it completely disappeared from sight.

In its place was an endless, green-vegetated primeval jungle.

Before entering the forest, circles of delicate and subtle ripples slowly spread in the air, forming a transparent membrane that gently covered the fuselage, isolating it from the outside world.

Luna Fairy Spirit saw through the illusion of this membrane at a glance, "Using a beast soul as the heart and the fuselage as the beast body, this method saves a lot on stealth costs."

This membrane was the plane's stealth shield, like an invisible barrier, silently fending off the hungry predatory flying monsters in the sky, ensuring the plane could safely traverse this perilous expanse of sky.

Luna smiled slightly, and with a gentle wave of her slender hand, a similar transparent membrane, like water, enveloped her, gently lifting her until she floated before the window.

"Your era's unmanned dangerous zones are too vast," Luna's voice was soft, yet carried a hint of unconcealed dissatisfaction and helplessness.

Hearing this, Han Fei cast his gaze towards the vast and mysterious green ocean below.

There, not only did various terrifying monsters reside, but also bizarre and deadly curses silently lingered over every inch of land.

What was most unpredictable were the spatial cracks that could appear at any time.

They were fissures in the Universe; once approached, one could be swallowed into an unknown and terrifying dimension, never to return to this world.

These cracks, like natural barriers of the primeval forest, prevented A-Rank Experts and below from easily entering.

This undoubtedly gave the powerful monsters in the forest a chance to proliferate.

If not for the Special Guard Team dispatching A-Rank Experts to delve deep into the jungle for large-scale clearing operations every so often, the monsters in the forest would probably have multiplied into a disaster, threatening various cities.

"Was it not like this in your era?" Han Fei asked curiously, using the sound transmission magic Luna taught him.

"Of course not. At least within the borders of Superpowers, with the maintenance of national power, unmanned dangerous zones were very rare."

Luna's tone carried a hint of nostalgia.

"Back then, travel didn't require such caution, and transportation was more convenient..."

"Is that so..."

Han Fei imagined the safer, more orderly era Luna described, his heart filled with longing.

"That era was so safe because there were often Experts clearing things out, right?"

Han Fei recalled descriptions from history books.

In the glorious era five hundred years ago, Experts from various countries around the world were like brilliant stars, scattered across continents and oceans, their numbers far exceeding those of the current era.

At that time, the number of S-Rank Experts on the territory of any Superpower could easily exceed two digits.

And the number of A-Rank Experts reached a staggering several hundred!

They were active on battlefields, guarding their homes, eliminating monsters that emerged from treasure chests, and maintaining world order.

Regrettably, that golden age of flourishing Experts ended with the epic war five hundred years ago.

According to incomplete statistics, at that time, globally, over fifty S-Rank Experts standing at the Peak of martial prowess, and nearly three hundred A-Rank Experts, perished in that war that decided the world's fate.

Their sacrifices, like falling stars, left the world with endless sorrow and regret.

Even more infuriating was that the iron hooves of the Devil King's army not only crushed the bodies of heroes but also utterly destroyed the Holy Lands that could nurture Experts, such as the miraculous white god's Tower.

These Holy Lands, once cradles for the birth of Experts, now remained only as ruins.

The break in Legacy led the human world into a winter period of Expert scarcity.

For the next few centuries, the absence of top-tier Experts, like a silent plague, brought immense negative impacts to human society.

Humanity gradually lost its ability to explore and control this planet.

Once prosperous cities and fertile lands gradually became the territory of beasts.

The deep sea, moreover, became a forbidden zone that humans dared not easily venture into.

The most direct and profound impact was the drastic shrinking of the space for profit that countries could contend for.

This invisibly intensified conflicts between nations, with suspicion and strife surging like an undercurrent, constantly tearing apart the fragile facade of peace.

Human infighting made nations weaker in their weakness, forming a vicious cycle that was difficult to break free from, and the situation became increasingly worse.

Thinking of these things, Han Fei couldn't help but turn to look at Luna beside him, the Great Sage who had personally experienced the Devil King subjugation war.

"Was the battle so fierce back then? Even dozens of S-Rank Experts died?!"

Upon hearing this, Luna's eyes gradually dimmed, as if a faint mist gathered within them, pulling her back into that memory filled with blood and fire.

Her voice became low and distant: "What you know is merely a history with softened edges. The actual battle situation was only more tragic than you can imagine!"
