Chapter 302
People from all directions were already reminded of the previous Modified Humans from Planetary Military Districts by the 'dark clouds' over Clyus. Although there was no concrete evidence, everyone knew that the departing Modified Humans were in Qin Su's hands. Now that they were here, occupying the sky, they were in a position of absolute advantage should a war break out. They were on high alert and dared not relax for a moment.
They couldn't fathom Qin Su's intentions. They didn't know if Qin Su had ordered the Cyborg Army above, whose strength and weaponry far surpassed theirs, to stand with them, or if Qin Su had used Class 6) to lure them here and annihilate them alongside the Ossotalia Empire. After all, the Cyborg Army above could do it without Qin Su's intervention. They couldn't help but ponder the implications.
They could only focus their attention on He Muzhi, and He Muzhi they looked at the towering, magnificent, and golden main entrance of the Setini Palace, which had been tightly closed.
Kanasen was a very nostalgic man. The Setini Palace, where he lived for more than two hundred years, was designed to hide all the technology within its architecture according to his preferences. From the outside, the magnificent Setini Palace has no trace of technology. All that can be seen are the traces of history and time meticulously carved by hand on countless gems and precious metals.
Normally, the Setini Palace would have its entrances open by this time, and from the entrance to every corner of the magnificent palace, one could see either soldiers standing guard in exquisite costumes as decorations or guards patrolling with live ammunition.
Now, only when He Muzhi emerged from the Spaceship and approached step by step did the heavy doors of the entrance slowly open in the simulated brilliant light of the rising sun. Through the gaps, they could not see a single person, making it seem like a magnificent but eerily empty ghost city.
[Don't be fooled by the fact that it looks empty now; there are actually quite a few people here. They're all being held together like everyone else, haha. But seriously, how did they end up all gathered together?]
[What else could it be? Of course, it's because the King Su made a move. The King Su doesn't let us see many things, how infuriating (from an SSVIP member's outburst of anger). But judging from this setup, he really seems like a god-like being who transcends this world, able to control his own camera at will. Unlike other people, who show us even their most private things, like picking their teeth, he's not shy at all.]
[Didn't some people speculate that Qin Su was paving the way for the students of Class 6)? Then why not do a live broadcast like before, when he made Kanasen take the blame, so that the world could see the achievements of Class 6)? It's not satisfying for only us to know the truth.]
[Um... why don't you look at Clyus now, it's practically an empty city. Even a thrilling battle might not happen. Opening it up would just reveal the truth that the process wasn't exciting at all. A truth veiled in mystery is what sparks imagination. Qin Su is clearly doing this for their own good, deliberately concealing the truth from the people in the Comic World.]
Is it possible that if Qin Su hadn't made these arrangements beforehand, and hadn't restricted the people of Clyus from leaving through access controls, Class 6)'s operation would have had such a spectacular live broadcast to the world? But in that case, the residents of Clyus would have suffered from the war, which I simply cannot accept.
Qin Su fastened the scarlet gem to his left chest, finished dressing, and looked away from the barrage of comments to check his reflection in the mirror.
For the good of Class 6 or anything like that... that doesn't exist; he's only doing it for his own good.
Within the Comic World, only those who participated are aware of the facts he concealed. Others who did not participate in the operation will only know that the students of Fourth Military Academy Class of 26 Class 6 won the war against the Ossotalia Empire under Qin Su's leadership. Others will piece together the truth through the dissemination of information by those who participated in the operation. Since everyone is assigned to different areas of Clyus, the information disseminated to the outside world for various reasons may not necessarily be the truth.
Rumors tend to spread like wildfire, becoming increasingly absurd and the truth of the matter will only become more and more bizarre and unbelievable.
(Class 6 and those involved in this action can still artificially control public opinion and get the results they want through this incident.
The comic book Viewers will see 80% of the story and understand his important role in the fall of the Ossotalia Empire better than the original inhabitants of the Comic World. Every time someone in Class 6) says something that contradicts the truth in the Comic World, it may cause the comic book Viewers to 'speak out' for him, and he can also get continuous popularity.
"?"
'Nobody here?!'
Seeing this, the crowd became even quieter. Before they arrived, although they already knew that Qin Su was in the Setini Palace and that Kanasen was under Qin Su's control, they expected that they would not experience a major battle in Clyus, but they would at least experience some small-scale skirmishes.
After all, none of the people who appeared in the live broadcast of the Kanasen massacre were core figures of the Ossotalia Empire other than Kanasen. In other places, they also saw Felix and others still operating normally. Felix and others obviously would not obediently submit, which may be the reason why Qin Su had Class 6) bring them here.
But... the small-scale battles they imagined were inevitable with the likes of Felix... will they really happen?
Seeing that there wasn't even a guard or patrol at the Setini Palace in the core of Clyus, the group couldn't help but doubt their earlier judgment.
But if there's no one else here, what's the point of their presence? What's the significance? Could it be... the worst-case scenario they just considered, that they're here to gather everyone and wipe them out in one fell swoop?
In eight seconds, the entrance opened completely, and the scene inside was exactly as they had seen at the beginning, unchanged. But the quieter it was, the more they felt it was like being lured into a trap, and everyone's eyes unconsciously turned to He Muzhi.
After following the Class 6 into Clyus, they tried, but their permission to leave the Passageway was blocked by a higher level of authority. Without the Class 6's... or more precisely, Qin Su's permission, they could not leave.
Having come this far, and now locked in this eerie place that sends chills down their spines, they had no choice but to place their hopes and pressure on He Muzhi as the situation grew increasingly unpredictable.
"..." Eight seconds later, He Muzhi withdrew the surprise he had been hiding in his eyes, and without hesitation, he took another step forward as everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
Thanks to Qin Su's secret Clyus of Class 6 into Clieus, he now knows everything about the Setini Palace. He understands that even before his mind can process it, his body can accurately react according to the opening and closing time of the Setini Palace's iconic entrance.
"!"
As soon as everyone looked away, they saw He Muzhi's confident and composed demeanor, as if he had expected everything to happen here. Feeling a little more confident, they followed He Muzhi into the Setini Palace in an orderly fashion.
As he walked, He Muzhi issued commands according to his own walking speed and the time taken.
[A peaceful scene unfolds here, but unbeknownst to many, war has broken out elsewhere.]
[It's almost here, just wait a little longer]
Ten minutes passed, He Muzhi could clearly see through the decorative mirrors inside the known building that most of the people behind him had left. He himself had about a minute left to reach the destination Qin Su had mentioned in the plan. Once he passed through this destination, he would reach the location where Kanasen had previously broadcast live.
During this time, everyone kept a close eye on He Muzhi's every move. They saw that He Muzhi was as familiar with the places in the Setini Palace as if they were in his own backyard, whether he was walking or talking. They also thought that Kamila Planet was the secret base of Class 6), and they had some guesses in their hearts.
After waiting quietly for more than ten seconds, He Muzhi's mouth did not move as before. Only after being prompted He Muzhi the others did someone nearby ask out of curiosity, "He Muzhi, you've been here before? Qin Su sent you?"
Questions likely related to Qin Su were bound to pique everyone's curiosity, and the crowd unconsciously softened their footsteps, holding their breath and listening intently.
"Yes." Now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide anything. Whoever asks him is either his senior or his elder, He Muzhi tells them the truth.
The others, who were listening intently, murmured, "..."
At that time, there was no record of He Muzhi coming here after bombing Felix's prison. (Class 6 still not know?
"We've arrived." Before anyone could ask a second question, He Muzhi stopped and looked at the tightly closed door not far away. His nose twitched. For some reason, amidst the strong, pungent Perfume, he detected a familiar, sweet, and putrid odor. This smell made him, as a human, feel a dangerous unease.
Instinct and experience told him that the faint odor mixed among the many rich fragrances was the Corpse Stench.
Qin Su told him to prepare for battle before entering this door, as the Corpse Stench and danger coexisted... He Muzhi's mind immediately turned to the battle of the Living Dead in Leichakan.
The Living Dead Virus was indeed maliciously spread by the Ossotalia Empire, but since the end of that war, Qin Su deleted the data on the Living Dead Virus from the Ossotalia Empire. Some people have speculated that Qin Su the Virus data for himself, and that... No, no, no, seeing that he was getting more and more outrageous, He Muzhi quickly suppressed the many speculations that flashed through his mind.
Having not witnessed it firsthand, He Muzhi knew he couldn't speak carelessly. He could only steal glances at the elders and seniors beside him, their expressions revealing they had also sensed the same aura. He Muzhi took a deep breath, unlocked the heavy weapon on his right thigh, and held it in his hand. He opened the Communication Channel and whispered, "Squad one, left flank, provide cover. Squad two... everyone get ready. Breach the door in three seconds, three..."
"?!"
He Muzhi's words made everyone realize that they had guessed wrong again, and they immediately prepared to take action according to his instructions.
Just a door away, the dense crowd amplified the stench in the air, amplifying all emotions.
