214: Void Management Department
“Something came up and delayed me a bit.”
Xia Qi said, a little embarrassed.
“Alright, let’s get straight to business.”
“I called you over because there’s a secret mission I need to entrust to you.”
General Hu observed his surroundings, then led Xia Qi to a secluded spot.
“We previously captured a Void Realm experimental subject, and we obtained some information from him.”
“Now, we need you to be prepared.”
Xia Qi was startled when he heard this.
However, he quickly reacted.
“Whatever you need me to do, I’ll do it without hesitation.”
General Hu patted his shoulder.
“Very good, you’ll know when the time comes.”
“When the competition starts, remember to pay attention to the people around you.”
General Hu surveyed the surroundings; with his strength as a War God, every rustle of grass was known to him.
“You need to pay special attention to one organization.”
“They call themselves the Void Management Division, but in reality, they’re just a bunch of Void Realm lackeys.”
“According to our intelligence, they might take action within these three days. If we need you, we’ll notify you.”
After speaking, General Hu left.
Void Management Division.
Xia Qi kept thinking about this organization.
It seems the Void Realm has been plotting for a long time.
Now, they have infiltrated humanity’s interior.
If Dragon Country has such an organization, then other countries must certainly have them too.
With a War God’s strength, dealing with them would naturally not be difficult.
However, War Gods also have their own matters and cannot keep a constant watch.
Just like during the college entrance examination, even with a War God’s intervention, it didn’t mean they were out of danger.
Xia Qi headed towards his residence; there was no need for him to waste energy thinking about these things now.
Since it’s here, he might as well be at ease.
When the time comes, they will all reveal themselves.
When he returned to his residence, the three girls had all gone out.
At home, Xia Qi directly drank all two hundred Talent Potions in one go.
“Talent: Congenital Double Pupils Lv3 (400/1000)”
“SS-Rank Divine Lightning, SS-grade Luck (36/100), SS-Rank Group Weakening, SS-grade Divine Fire, SS-grade Sword Breaks Mountains and Rivers, SS-grade Divine Wind, SS-grade Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability, SS-grade Insight Weakness, SS-grade Unyielding Fortitude, SS-grade Time Jump.”
“S-Rank Instantaneous Movement, S-Rank Myriad Bones Great Art, S-Rank High-Energy Recovery, S-grade Mechanical Heart, S-Rank Hundred Percent Catching a Blade with Bare Hands, S-grade Disguise, S-Rank Mind Impact, S-grade Mental Resistance, S-Grade Heart of the Earth, S-Grade Heart of the Ocean, S-Rank Overall Amplification, S-Rank Heart of Healing.”
“Passive Skills: Energy Reduction, Overall Amplification, Insight Weakness, Quick Casting, Element Resistance, Calm Heart, Effortless Strength, Elemental Archmage.”
Although his Congenital Double Pupils’ Rank didn’t directly increase, Xia Qi’s strength still improved.
As for the Void Management Division, he would deal with that when the competition began.
By the time the three girls returned, Xia Qi had already fallen asleep.
Yun Qingyue tidied Xia Qi’s blanket and then left the room.
The next day, Xia Qi left early.
Since the Void Management Division was planning to act during the Professional Tournament, they definitely wouldn’t be idle during these three days.
And currently, among all the participants in the Professional Tournament, he, Xia Qi, was the most eye-catching in the Tian Du City division.
If the other party wanted to make a move, they would definitely target him early.
Regardless of their purpose, Xia Qi was undoubtedly a very good choice.
Moreover, even if the previous incident in the dungeon was concealed, some clues could still be discerned.
Whether it was Xia Qi or not, they wouldn’t let him go.
Indeed, when Xia Qi left his residence and wandered around the competition area, someone deliberately approached him to strike up a conversation.
“Oh, isn’t this our National Champion?”
Xia Qi heard the voice and turned to look.
He saw a neatly dressed middle-aged man looking at him with great interest.
“You are?”
Xia Qi asked.
“I am one of the directors for this Tian Du City division. My name is Jiang Kun.”
“Speaking of which, we’re from the same hometown. My hometown is also in Xijiang Province.”
Seeing the other party trying to get close to him, Xia Qi realized something was off.
A division director should be very busy right now.
Although he had already adjusted his accent, Xia Qi still sensed his deliberate effort.
“Is there something?”
Xia Qi said coldly.
“You are the pride of our Xijiang Province! The future of Dragon Country will still be entrusted to you young people.”
Saying that, Jiang Kun patted Xia Qi’s shoulder.
Xia Qi saw a purple object adhering to his shoulder.
Xia Qi glanced at it, pretending not to have seen it.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving now. I still need to prepare for the upcoming matches.”
Jiang Kun nodded.
“Truly formidable youngsters!”
Although he was suspicious of the other party’s identity, he didn’t expect the Void Management Division to be so brazen already.
Xia Qi observed the small object on his shoulder. After confirming it posed no immediate threat, he ignored it.
If he were to get rid of it now, he would definitely be discovered.
That might disrupt General Hu and their plans.
Since this plan wasn’t told to him, there must be a reason for it.
Xia Qi noticed that Jiang Kun walked towards the competition area’s office, indicating that he was at least a staff member.
The Void Management Division had already infiltrated the interior.
Xia Qi went to the wilderness and entered a dungeon like other contestants.
The small object on his shoulder was very stable, and even when Xia Qi used area-of-effect skills, he couldn’t destroy it.
Since he couldn’t specifically target it, Xia Qi gave up on the idea of getting rid of it.
If only someone could help him get rid of it now.
And it needed to be handled in a reasonable way.
As he was thinking, someone suddenly walked towards him.
He had already left the dungeon, and the wilderness was filled with all kinds of contestants.
Not just Dragon Country people, but also contestants from other countries.
And those approaching Xia Qi were several contestants from Sakura Country.
Xia Qi deliberately led them to a deserted corner, waiting for them to make their move.
As expected, in a deserted place, these guys became bolder.
One of them directly blocked Xia Qi’s path.
“We were still wondering, with so many people around, it would be difficult to handle.”
“We didn’t expect you to come here yourself.”
“Since you’re seeking death, then don’t blame us.”
The Sakura Country contestants were very confident. As long as they dealt with Xia Qi, it would be equivalent to weakening Dragon Country’s vital forces.
If Xia Qi were allowed to grow, it would be very disadvantageous for them.
His performance in the arena alone had already surprised them.
Therefore, to deal with Xia Qi, they didn’t come with just three or five people.
Instead, there were a full twenty-three people!
These twenty-three people were almost the top combatants from Sakura Country in this Tian Du City division.
And not a single one was below Rank 45.
They knew that below this Rank, it would be very difficult to pose a threat to Xia Qi.
