Chapter 173
This is different from the labels Wen Jing sees in normal people. In addition to abilities, they all have more or less social attributes, such as Dean Bai's Rebirth Expert a good family and Xie Ming's Secretly in Love with Someone.
There are also powerful figures like Dean Ailin and Dean Fu, who can be represented by question marks even if Wen Jing cannot see the content of the entry.
Only the assassins under the Prophet's command have one ability... some Wilderness Beast have more than one.
However, the fact that the Secret Treasure Gate could function even when the Supernatural Disintegration proves that it was indeed the power of the teacher and mother.
Did the Prophet kill the teacher "casually," or was it premeditated?
Upon Calmness reflection, Wen Jing realized that the whole affair began with that sudden Genetic Collapse. She didn't die from the Genetic Collapse, but the Prophet immediately appeared, announced the prophecy, and then surrounded and killed her.
The assassins who surrounded her, the Awakened whose talents came from years of death, and finally, her teacher and mother who appeared...
From these phenomena, it is not difficult to deduce that Wen Jing's previous Genetic Collapse was the work of the other party, and those 'suicide agents' were most likely collected in this way.
Reviving the teacher was Wen Jing's primary goal, but at the same time, she didn't forget to...
revenge
The prerequisite for revenge is to find out what the unseen Prophet is plotting...
Just as one consciousness was pondering the Prophet's intentions, another consciousness, observing the Secret Treasure Gate, suddenly had a flash of inspiration and came up with an idea.
The next moment, Wen Jing sensed the light spots Secret Treasure Gate, randomly selected the nearest one, and then sensed it through the [Key of Tuning].
Her energy was rapidly depleted, and she immediately felt refreshed.
It seems like it really can!
Gradually, the vague senses became clearer... Finally, just like when Wen Jing first acquired this ability and applied it to her Tactical Glasses, she sensed the coordinates of an Ancient Wilderness world.
Even if she cannot obtain this Wilderness Weapon, she can still travel to worlds connected to it by using the coordinates.
Every Wilderness Weapon is inevitably linked to a remnant of a civilization.
The countless points of light from the Wilderness Weapon within the Secret Treasure Gate were like a vast starry sky!
She initially thought the Secret Treasure Gate would be useless to her in the short term, but it turned out to be her greatest asset in advancing. Each point of light represented a large number of Skill Points.
Wen Jing felt as if Dean Bai was watching him as he sensed these points of light.
"Teacher, it seems we've been Luck again."
Chapter 173
The new discovery of the Secret Treasure Gate ignited Wen Jing's fighting spirit.
However, she currently faces many more specific problems.
That is, what should she do next?
"I don't know how my mentor and classmates are doing, or if they've been affected by this... But precisely because of this, before I've gathered enough power for revenge, I can't let the Prophet know I'm still alive."
Judging from the fact that the Prophet used the pretext of issuing a prophecy to kill her, he wasn't entirely reckless in his actions. For some reason, he was at least maintaining his image and wasn't using his S-class status to take the life or death of other Awakened —even though they actually had that power.
"The teacher wasn't in the prophecy; she was most likely caught in the crossfire because she came to save me."
"If that's the case, then the mentor, fellow students, and Reformist Faction might be implicated, but not specifically targeted by the Prophet."
There are many possibilities, but Wen Jing can only hope for the best.
Between two evils, choose the lesser... She knew even better that if she knew she was still alive, then those who had been connected to her or were on good terms with her in the past would inevitably be in danger!
Therefore, she doesn't even plan to go back to the worlds she had previously explored with Mystic Radiance and the others.
Even if the probability of meeting is extremely small, it is still a probability.
At the same time, if she were to devour those worlds, she might be discovered and reported by the exploration team that possesses the Locator Stone.
She had to prepare for the worst—that is, nothing the Federation could hide from the Prophet.
The appearance of the S-class assassin was too shocking. Now that Wen Jing had completely Calmness down and was recalling the situation, he remembered another detail.
She couldn't even see where the photon cannon was, the one that was firing at the area of Supernatural Disintegration.
Wen Jing didn't know the extent of the Federation's most advanced military technology, but the photon cannon was extremely advanced. Even without the Supernatural Disintegration, it could severely injure her, exceeding the level of technology she was aware of.
When it comes to technology, the Federation's most advanced technology is all in the Mastermind.
The Prophet has lived for so many years and can make prophecies... perhaps he has already secretly obtained full access to the Mastermind!
She has already lost her teacher; she cannot allow any more regrets and tragedies to occur because of a little bit of luck.
Correspondingly, in the material universe, the Federation certainly cannot return, nor can it even detour to the opposing Empire.
On the one hand, although the Empire and the Federation are in a state of opposition, they still have exchanges, so it is impossible to determine whether the Prophet's hand has reached into the Empire.
On the other hand... she also lacked the Empire's orbital coordinates.
Even because Wen Jing's previous Clone died directly, if she were to use the algorithm to return to the material universe now, she would only have three habitable planets from the Federation to choose from.
However, it's also impossible to completely avoid entering the material universe.
Although Wen Jing will likely spend most of his time devouring world cores in the Ancient Wilderness Realm to gain Skill Points, he definitely cannot afford to stay away from the material universe.
In the Ancient Wilderness, it is impossible to travel from one world's depth to another.
If she were to travel directly by alternating between day and night, her newly created Clone might be 'sucked' next to the Spacetime Amber when it travels from the current world to a daytime world.
Other daytime Ancient Wilderness are either like the Giant Tree World, which lacks resources to devour, or they may involve encountering Mystic Radiance students.
Therefore, if Wen Jing wants to reach the new world discovered by the light spot of the Secret Treasure Gate, he must go through a transit point in the material universe.
Therefore, her only option now is to travel directly through the universe without using algorithms and become an exile!
For other Awakened, this approach is fraught with danger. If they are unlucky enough to travel directly into the interior of a star, even high-level Awakened without special resistance to high temperatures will be caught in the crossfire and vaporize inside.
However, for those with Wen Jing of gravity, the probability is much smaller.
The Gravity Silk will inevitably capture matter, rather than it appearing in the empty space of space.
In addition, the gravitational pull of stars is much greater than that of planets, so you can eliminate them by paying attention to the magnitude of gravity when choosing a landing site.
When she was attacked, she first evolved Gravity Silk, primarily to prevent herself from falling into space.
Later, upon fully awakening, Wen Jing had the idea of exploring deeper space beyond human civilization, which was also based on this ability.
"Unexpectedly, this is how our original idea was ultimately achieved..."
She sighed softly, then coiled up in her cocoon and disappeared into the desolate world.
This time, Wen Jing took much longer to return to the material universe than before, because he needed to spend time completely eliminating the algorithm's habits and sensing the appropriate gravitational landing point.
It took her nearly ten minutes to choose a landing spot amidst the Chaos.
The next moment, Wen Jing's figure landed on an unfamiliar planet.
"Boom..."
A deep, seemingly endless roar suddenly filled my ears, as if the bones of a planet were being crushed by a tremendous force, and the ground beneath my feet was trembling incessantly, emitting high-frequency vibrations.
What comes into Wen Jing is a stunning natural landscape where ice and fire intertwine.
Overhead, a massive gas giant occupied nearly a quarter of the sky, its colorful cloud bands slowly swirling and casting a chilling shadow of the planet.
She landed on a moon of this giant planet, where the gravitational pull of tidal locking transformed the moon into a world subjected to constant torture.
A dark red river of lava rushes through a bottomless rift, emitting a pungent sulfurous odor and scorching heat. Vast expanses of pale ice plains are separated from this infernal heat by only a thin veil, shimmering with eerie reflections in the lava.
The ice layer cracked and vaporized under high temperatures, while the magma flow cooled rapidly in extreme cold, solidifying into twisted rocks.
Wen Jing clearly 'saw' the tectonic plates beneath the Earth's crust breaking apart and colliding with each other through his Gravity Sensing. The entire planet was experiencing earthquakes, with no unified frequency, but rather all mixed together, like a symphony of destruction.
Just then, a wave of lava crashed in, and she lightly leaped forward to avoid it.
The gravity here is only one-third that of Ocher Soil. There is no oxygen, only toxic gases released from magma and ice. The temperature is extreme, with areas near the magma river reaching hundreds of degrees Celsius, while the ice field drops sharply to over one hundred degrees below zero.
However, for Awakened who can sustain their entire bodies with energy, it is still possible to survive in such an environment if they are careful.
For Wen Jing, it was even more gentle and safe.
After familiarizing herself with the surroundings, she decided to stay longer than she had initially planned to stop for ten minutes before continuing her journey.
"The earthquake environment here is unique, quite suitable for training combat skills [Shockwave]. There's still over an hour until 6 AM... Let's see if we can reach the Proficiency level!"
The exchange with Mystic Radiance lasted for a month, during which Wen Jing learned many new combat techniques, one of which was Shockwave.
In the past, these general combat skills enhanced her strength, but now that she possesses numerous powerful special abilities, the greatest use of combat skills for her is as a way to acquire Skill Points.
Her next priority will definitely be Consciousness Diversion, creating more Clone to maximize the pace of evolution.
Before this incident, she felt that things shouldn't be too different. If the advanced skill was sufficient, she would evolve directly; if not, she would follow the Secret Treasure Gate to find a daytime civilization ruin and devour it.
