"Teacher Aimer is looking for me?"
Xu Jingming's heart stirred. After bidding farewell to the two ninth-order experts before him, he took out the Obsidian-grade Warplane and prepared to fly back to Thunder Martial Hall headquarters.
"Farewell, Lord Thunder Emperor!"
The two ninth-order experts on the ground bowed respectfully.
The other metahumans on the front lines seemed to realize something as well.
They all stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction the warplane was flying, their expressions respectful.
"Farewell, Lord Thunder Emperor!"
The wave-like voices surged forth and spread outward.
This was their most sincere expression of gratitude toward Xu Jingming.
If not for him, the human army would have suffered at least tens of thousands of casualties in this Beast Tide.
"S-rank, your prestige throughout Great Xia is probably second only to Lord Zhou Yuanwu's now," Eva said with a giggle inside the warplane cabin after detecting the commotion below.
"The contributions made by the seniors who came through the early days of Origin Energy's resurgence are far greater than mine. I'm merely benefiting from the foundation they laid."
Xu Jingming kept his attitude properly grounded.
"Oh? S-rank, your awareness is quite impressive. Your perspective is far beyond that of your peers." Loli Eva sounded somewhat surprised.
Xu Jingming's face darkened.
So in your eyes, my awareness was that low?
"Enter the Virtual World and contact Teacher Aimer." Xu Jingming could not be bothered to say more to her.
"Received!"
Eva giggled and slipped into the Telepathy Helmet on Xu Jingming's hand.
Whoosh—
After putting on the helmet, Xu Jingming quickly entered the Virtual World.
There, he met Aimer in the Kindling Divine Hall within the Virtual World.
This time, she was not wearing the High Priest's ceremonial robes. Instead, she wore a gorgeous long dress.
