An Unexpected Windfall

"Did you need something from me?"

A calm voice suddenly appeared beside the woman's ear, and then, dark red tentacles instantly climbed onto her body and bit her.

The woman's expression revealed obvious panic, and even her heartbeat suddenly became rapid.

"Who... who are you?"

Her voice trembled slightly, just the right amount, but unfortunately Shisui wasn't buying it.

He twisted the woman's upper body around so that she was facing him.

He was completely oblivious to the fact that he had almost broken her lumbar spine.

His Shisui, Kakugan met the woman's dark brown eyes, and he immediately noticed they were colored contact lenses.

Immediately afterward, a brief memory of borrowing books from the library surfaced. He recognized the person in front of him as the library staff member who had processed his borrowing.

"Ah, it's you."

The lady rat, hiding in the Shengtian, lurks, waiting for her chance to strike.

Shisui tilted his head slightly, casting his inquisitive gaze upon her with great interest.

"Do... do you know me?"

Seeing that this girl was still pretending, Shisui didn't bother to expose her.

In the past, he might have had to go through the trouble of interrogation, but now he has better tools at his disposal.

As the woman's eyes filled with genuine fear, Bikaku slowly enveloped her completely.

Shisui activated the Spatial Energy, and the long-unseen [Spirit Dream Recall] appeared in his hand.

Nourished by the Snow Spirit for a long time, the vessel of the [Spirit Dream Recall] talent has become increasingly pure and transparent.

The entire talent ball resembled a piece of fine jade, radiating a soft glow under the sunlight.

Shisui aimed [Spirit Dream Recall] at the woman he was targeting, and in the next moment, a complex and varied stream of memories began to flow.

Her memories from the time she could remember unfolded like a scroll painting, only slowing down as she approached adulthood.

However, the reason for the slowdown was not as usual, because the time was more recent and therefore the memory was clearer.

According to Shisui's perspective through [Spirit Dream Recall], her memories became unstable after she came into contact with an important person.

The screen frequently goes black or the connection drops, as if something is interfering with it.

The increasingly blurry images prove that these memories are indeed quite important, which is why they have been deliberately buried.

Therefore, Zi increased the output of his Psychic Energy without hesitation, forcibly breaking through part of the blockade.

The next moment, the woman's body exploded, and a large amount of blood gushed out, some even splashing beyond her Bikaku.

Clearly, the woman's strength was insufficient to support Shisui in further power struggles with his superiors.

The sudden surge of Psychic Energy burst through the body.

Perhaps this is something the other party did intentionally to avoid revealing more information.

Shisui thought to himself, and then chuckled.

The [Spirit Dream Recall] in his hand suddenly lit up with a bright light, and two forcibly severed memories appeared.

The forces behind the woman reacted too slowly.

The moment they were locked onto and invaded by [Spirit Dream Recall], it was already too late.

Furthermore, since the talent vessel has been nurtured for nearly a month, the potential of the talent within has been gradually stimulated.

It's more than enough to retrieve some fragments of memory.

Instead of checking the contents of the memory right away, Shisui first carefully put away the talent carrier.

If I were her superior, I would definitely come to silence her upon learning that someone had captured a spy.

Therefore, this place is not suitable for lingering.

The next moment, Shisui Ukaku trembled, Radiant Feathers fell off in bits and pieces. His figure suddenly disappeared, turning into a wisp of wind and vanishing into the sunlight.

Shortly after Shisui left, several figures dressed in black robes suddenly appeared on the roof of the teaching building.

"Can you sense the other party's current location?"

"No, the trail has gone cold. The spy was arrested here, and this is also the last place he was seen."

"Report this to the Third Prince immediately."

"Clear."

The black-robed "people" came and went in a hurry, staying only for a short while before leaving the rooftop.

Unbeknownst to them, in a corner of the rooftop, hidden in a crack in the floor, Radiant Feathers was slowly operating.

In the afternoon, as the sun gradually set, the situation inside Shengtian Public School gradually stabilized.

The thick smoke and the frequent explosions that had been rising slowly dissipated, as if announcing that the turmoil was about to come to an end.

In contrast, outside of Shengtian, the southern region of Academy Island was thrown into chaos by a sudden massacre and explosion.

The Academy Island Defense Force was still out to sea when they discovered a large number of Awakened Ones crossing the sea.

Therefore, they were unable to return to defend and had to seek help from the Mao City Border Defense Force.

Mao City naturally wouldn't abandon Academy Island, and immediately dispatched some of its western troops to the island.

This directly led to a temporary breach in the coastal defenses west of the city.

Meanwhile, a cargo ship in the port had already set sail, heading upstream against the Turbid Water.

That ship is most likely heading to the Huaihuang Continent.

Given the current collapse of the Ten-Thousand-Blade Mountain Range, entering via the Zhuoshui Turbid Water, which originates from the Huaihuang Continent, is undoubtedly the best option.

Incidentally, the Turbid Water is not a straight line; it has a huge bend before flowing into the sea.

Therefore, although its estuary is in the central part of Mao City, the river channel runs through the west of the city.

Therefore, Academy Island, not far from the west of the city, is in a sense separated from Turbid Water.

Therefore, it was not impossible for Shisui to rush from Shengtian to Turbid Water to intercept the cargo ship that was moving at full speed.

At this moment, he was already waiting by the river in the west of the city, patiently waiting for his prey to come to him.

He deliberately crossed the border of Mao City to come here, which is related to one of the memory fragments he had previously intercepted.

As the cargo ship bearing the snowflake emblem drew closer, Shisui leaned forward slightly, poised to strike.

He wanted the same Warship Thruster and Psychic Energy Barrier as the faction that spy belonged to.

Citroën Company's cargo ships gradually entered the relatively calm section of the river west of the city.

On the river, the propeller at the stern of the boat is preparing to increase thrust.

But before it could accelerate across this section of the river, a sudden change occurred!

Suddenly, a large number of figures in black robes sprang out from the surrounding houses, their target the giant ship in the middle of the river.

However, the cargo ships belonging to Citroën were certainly not ordinary vessels, especially since they were used to transport military supplies.

"Sizzle--!"

Dense Psychic Energy threads formed an intricate protective net, directly blocking any intruders attempting to land on the deck.

Then, holes about half a meter in diameter appeared in the hull, and short cylindrical tubes protruded, aimed at the intruders in mid-air.

The next moment, a loud bang caused the river water to splash.

Shisui stared Kakugan from afar, his expression filled with uncontrollable ecstasy for the first time.

Damn it, you guys should have said so earlier if you had this thing!

If you had told me sooner, I would have started robbing you!

What shot down the figure in black robes was practically a missile from the Ruolan Star!

Now, the target has changed.

More than the cargo inside the ship, Shisui wanted to steal the ship itself.
