Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave
Jiang Liushi glanced at the zombie’s corpse and took a deep breath. Then, he looked at his bloody fists. Although they were still bleeding and throbbing from pain, he was exhilarated – his new power had not let him down.
Comparing the zombie to Tsukuyomi, the former was inferior. Even so, its battle prowess in no way could be underestimated. Therefore, Jiang Liushi was satisfied with his performance. He believed his power and other aces were enough to let him fight against Genesis’ Chancellor on equal terms.
“Brother Jiang, you were so cool!” shouted Xiang Xuehai excitedly, while rushing to his side to hold his hands. Li Yuxin followed behind to treat Jiang Liushi’s wounds.
“This can wait.” Jiang Liushi waved his hands and then walked toward Angelica. “Where is Shen Kui?” he asked
“He is a yard behind the manor,” replied Angelica, still looking at Jiang Liushi in surprise. The battle’s outcome was completely beyond her expectations. Meanwhile, she wondered what the blue light was, as well as why and how such potent energy was stored in it.
“He is in the back, but he-” Before Angelica had the chance to elaborate, Jiang Liushi ignored her and walked past her.
The Black Rubik’s Cube was in Shen Kui’s hands, so Jiang Liushi could not possibly let him run away.
“Mr. Jiang!” Angelica ran after him quickly.
Only after Jiang Liushi disappeared from their line of sight did the crowd feel relief. The shock Jiang Liushi had brought them today was deeply rooted in their hearts. In truth, the level-3 mutant zombie may have terrified them, but Jiang Liushi, who none of them believed he could beat it, was much a more frightening existence than it.
Tomiko had witnessed the whole battle from far away. She also stood agape. Every time she thought it was over for Jiang Liushi, the latter created one miracle after the other.
“If he is willing to stay in Chukyo Base, it would be wonderful!” exclaimed a paranormal from Tomiko’s team.
“It’s too late…” Tomiko sighed while shaking her head.
Undoubtedly, Jiang Liushi had noticed they had chosen to abandon him instead of helping him. However, Jiang Liushi didn’t mind at all.
Tomiko was a kindhearted girl, but she too felt it was a pity that they had lost their chance to deepen their ties with Jiang Liushi’s team. She stared at the manor with mixed feelings. The revelation that Angelica was the base’s leader had also stunned her. But compared to the surprises Jiang Liushi brought, Angelica’s matter was insignificant.
…
The manor’s interior was quite spacious. After entering the manor and walking for some time, they reached a Japanese-style garden, which gave off a sense of serenity and elegance.
The moment Jiang Liushi entered the garden with the Vulcan in hand, the garden’s atmosphere affected him greatly. Snapping out of his daze, Jiang Liushi walked toward a building and shot the door’s lock, smashing it completely. Then, he kicked open the door.
The first thing Jiang Liushi saw was an SUV and a man, whose body was trembling uncontrollably, trying to walk to the vehicle weakly. With Ran Xiyu’s confirmation, it was a no-brainer that the weak-looking man was Shen Kui.
“Jiang Liushi!” screamed Shen Kui, weakly. As soon as he saw Jiang Liushi, he discarded every thought of escaping. He was clearly aware of Jiang Liushi’s energy, power, and speed, so it was impossible for him to flee. He fell in total despair. Ten minutes earlier, he was filled with confidence, but now, he was reduced to such a miserable state. Just Jiang Liushi’s presence scared him to death!
“You want that Black Rubik’s Cube, right?” asked Shen Kui.
“Take it out!” ordered Jiang Liushi.
“In truth, the cube is of no use to you,” said Shen Kui. “If you want to obtain endless resources, our organization can provide-”
“Less nonsense! Take the cube out!” interrupted Jiang Liushi impatiently.
“No worries. I’ll hand it to you immediately,” replied Shen Kui.
Then, Shen Kui picked up the travel bag next to him, opened it, and took out a small black cube out of it.
Although Shen Kui was seriously wounded, he was able to sense that a spiritual sense was locked on him. Moreover, Jiang Liushi’s eyes were fixed on him, so how could he dare to play any tricks?
As soon as Jiang Liushi saw the black cube, he felt excited. Starseed also sensed the black cube’s existence and expressed its intention to absorb it.
Jiang Liushi leaned toward Shen Kui and grabbed the black cube from his hands. Shen Kui was grief-stricken, but he didn’t dare to say anything. On the other hand, Jiang Liushi could not be happier. He held the black cube carefully and scrutinized it.
The black cube felt very light in Jiang Liushi’s hand, and it emitted a black metallic luster. The whole cube consisted of six small square faces that could be rotated, which was why Genesis called it Black Rubic’s Cube.
Jiang Liushi rotated the squares a bit, and after aligning their lines with each other, a slight sound came from it. After the sound, Jiang Liushi’s line of sight seemed to cross the cube’s surface and reach its interior. Inside the black cube was hollow space, which was beyond Jiang Liushi’s initial expectations. The space was 100 square meters dimension, in which many metal blocks were contained.
Jiang Liushi had never seen or heard of such metals before. Apparently, they were the metals needed to build the spaceship, and the black cube was similar to the MCV’s storage space. Maybe, the black cube was also a part of the spaceship.
Shen Kui observed Jiang Liushi’s expression from the side. After Genesis’ scientists discovered that the black cube actually held another dimension, which acted as a storage space, they were all shocked. Adding the many advanced technologies from the lost civilization’s relic, those discoveries propelled Genesis’ development.
Naturally, Shen Kui expected Jiang Liushi to reveal a surprised expression or something similar, but instead to his expectations, Jiang Liushi actually seemed joyful. Seeing that, Shen Kui felt doubtful and wondered why a paranormal, who had obtained his powers after doomsday, could be so collected in the face of such overwhelming things.
“Other than the Black Rubik’s Cube, what other things have you discovered?” asked Jiang Liushi.
After confirming that one of the things Genesis discovered in the relic was the spaceship, Jiang Liushi was unwilling to miss the slightest detail and piece of information. Of course, Jiang Liushi didn’t was to restore that spaceship. After all, it didn’t belong to him. Only the MCV belonged to him!
