Chapter 1075: Chapter 820: Return_4
Flipping over tanks and tearing apart cars might be possible, but that’s about it; at best, it’s comparable to a fairly ordinary Senior Partner.
This sudden disparity and feeling of weakness, even for soone as resolute as Thanos, was a bit difficult to adapt to.
“When I first entered your world, I felt pretty much the sa. You’re actually considered lucky; thanks to your physique, you’re off to a better start. Those cultivation techniques I taught you—now’s the ti to try practicing them. I can sense that the energy within you is still there; you’re just lacking the ans to awaken it.”
“I understand.”
Thanos wasn’t the type to wallow in self-pity. Since he had been forewarned of this, he had prepared himself ntally, and his adaptability was impressive.
In fact, most of the ti, Thanos wouldn’t personally intervene. Despite his overwhelming power, he relied more on strategy and command.
Compared to Thanos, who was most affected, Natasha and even Yongdu experienced much less impact.
Yongdu’s Telekinesis Arrow was already considered an extraordinary Yuan Force artifact. After whistling a few tis to test it, he quickly adjusted.
However, purely from a potential standpoint, compared to Thanos—who was destined to achieve a Saintly Position through steady progression—the others still fell far behind.
Leaving the Marvel World and returning to the EVA World, Tao Yu gazed at the crimson-colored ocean below the deck and couldn’t help but sigh. Yet, feeling the temporal fluctuations between the two realms, he used his computation power to calculate briefly and found that less than a month had passed in the Current World.
“Check if there are any nearby communication signals.”
Tao Yu casually issued instructions, then began selecting so cross-border communicators to contact the little rich woman and inquire about recent developnts…
Since not much ti had passed, the little rich woman ntioned that guests were still arriving one after another to offer congratulations.
After all, the Suns’ Supre Elder had already ascended to a Saintly Position, ensuring a smooth transition and stability for Starshine City without any significant issues.
The New Developnt Zone was also problem-free; everything was calm and orderly. The minor nuisances had all settled down, and various mineral extractions were proceeding as planned.
However, in the Old Developnt Area, remnants of the Xing Family were still stirring up so trouble…
“…The Xing Family dominated Starshine for so many years; naturally, they have so foundations. The Old Developnt Area still bears traces of Catastrophe Level experts’ activities. It’s unclear if they broke through using leftover treasures or sothing else. Their remaining survivors likely split between preserving the Fire Spark and causing multiple terrorist attacks near the Old Developnt Area.”
When the little rich woman ntioned this, she added a hint of sarcasm.
The Catastrophe Level destruction speaks for itself, while Yuan Force production zones mostly rely on farming and mining—a type of industry notoriously challenging to safeguard. These attacks had indeed caused considerable damage.
“Are you short on divination tools? Should I co back and make so?”
Hearing about significant disruptions to resource production, Tao Yu felt a bit distressed. After all, he had a stake in it now!
It was all about steady streams of inco!
This is precisely why Catastrophe Level experts qualify for dialogue. As long as your interests don’t exceed your ability to control them, people generally won’t bother to provoke you.
Of course, if soone takes a few sneaky shots, even the biggest enterprises would feel the pain. This level of damage ca despite the Xing Family’s experts being nearly wiped out, with potential heirs scattered to preserve their lineage.
For the Xing Family, their primary goal was likely “survival.” Such spiteful attacks weren’t only driven by hatred but also served to draw attention.
To cause widespread destruction at multiple sites, it’s uncertain whether they used temporary enhancent artifacts with significant side effects or sought power from the Evil God.
“These pawns of the Evil God.”
Tao Yu couldn’t help but casually throw an insult.
“The Xing Family’s Anti-Divination reserves are still quite strong. Stirring up murky waters is always easier…”
The little rich woman sighed a bit but quickly reassured Tao Yu.
“But this is a scenario that inevitably occurs with every city’s power transition. Starshine has been remarkably stable. Your teacher wiped out the most troubleso experts in one clean sweep, and because of the Xing Family’s indiscriminate retaliation, the remaining forces in Starshine are now actively uniting, leading to quicker stabilization.”
Every situation has its positives and negatives. Such indiscriminate massacres could also incite solidarity within Starshine City.
Initially, so families with ties to the Xing Family—even those who harbored sympathy—had now joined in active cleanup efforts.
As for the Old Developnt Area, Tao Yu, though collecting profits, didn’t need to worry or intervene.
The little rich woman was rely venting; it wasn’t exactly a troubleso matter.
The Suns’ Supre Elder had ultimately ascended to the Saintly Position, which simplified many things.
As the little rich woman put it, achieving such a “smooth” transition was already quite comndable…
“…I once heard about an incident in Xiangyun City where, during a major upheaval, the losing side, out of spite, destroyed the entire Developnt Zone. The Pioneers suffered heavy casualties, nearly having to start over.”
The little rich woman brought up an old example. The Current World had constraints from the World Will, which made such actions far more costly.
But in Developnt Zones, spiteful retaliation was fairly common once major factions completely tore into each other.
Just as Tao Yu finished using up the limit on two communicators with the little rich woman and was about to grab a third for another chat session…
The space airship’s communication equipnt captured a local signal channel.
Having identified the vessel as Tao Yu’s, the UN from the EVA World couldn’t possibly treat it as hostile. On the contrary, they sent over recent major updates.
“Saint Ou from the Ou Family left a ssage. He’s used the teleportation array to return. No need to worry.”
Hearing this, Tao Yu found it amusing.
He truly couldn’t muster much interest in Saint Ou. That guy stayed hidden until now and imdiately fled at the first chance.
But judging from his words, the teleportation device in Tokyo should already be operational.
“Ugh, though I’ve managed to synchronize so much through digitization, the World Will’s fees haven’t budged an inch…”
Tao Yu scratched his head in frustration.
Earlier, during his calls with the little rich woman, Tao Yu had attempted to transmit himself digitally using the communicator signal.
Surprisingly, the thod worked for signal transfer, but it consud the communicator’s call quota—and the World Will still demanded paynt!
Given Tao Yu’s data size, no single communicator could accommodate his transmission. Besides, the fees might exceed those for direct use of the teleportation device.
“Let’s see. If all else fails, I’ll just take my ride and fly back slowly; it’s no big deal…”
Currently, Tao Yu’s pockets were emptier than his face. His funds in the Current World had been siphoned off barely a month ago. Trying to extract more wasn’t feasible right now, forcing him to consider alternative solutions.
Should he pay a visit to the State Capital?
