Chapter 294 Messed up!
Chen Yifan hung up the call, his figure completely disappearing into the night in the suburbs.
He didn't take the main road.
Instead, it's like a cat.
Silently moving between the shadows of the building and the pipes.
The towering flames from the direction of Black Forest Manor had already triggered piercing alarms, and the official response was faster than he had anticipated.
We must sever ties as soon as possible.
His brain was working at high speed, processing the massive influx of information that had flooded in that evening.
Li Yuantu's private diary.
That thing called the "Flesh and Blood Source Crystal," and that incredibly detailed fusion experiment report.
Each one points to a deeper secret of this world.
Especially the two terms that are repeatedly mentioned in the log – “the core of the world” and “the supreme divine court”.
Lin Tian also wants the "Core of the World".
It seems that this is the "Tang Monk's flesh" that all the heretical forces are coveting.
The so-called "Supreme Divine Court" is actually a rancher that raises everyone.
As for Su Qingxue...
The easiest option right now is to leave that troublesome woman to Xia Nan.
The Xia family has plenty of ways to deal with the chaotic power within her, and Xia Nan also needs a bargaining chip that can completely subdue him.
One experimental subject with S-level talent is enough.
He, Chen Yifan, was never a pushover.
save people?
It's purely because I'm afraid of trouble.
An out-of-control experimental subject should be kept as far away from his social circle as possible.
All he needs to do now is find a place to thoroughly process tonight's "gains".
……
Meanwhile, inside Lin Tian's secret laboratory.
"Sizzle!"
Accompanied by a pungent smell, all the screens on the main control panel went out after a series of flashes, falling into dead silence.
The room was pitch black.
Lin Tian suddenly jumped up from the chair, his face drained of color, only horror remained.
"He...he's an agent too?!"
An uncontrollable growl escaped his throat, accompanied by a tremor he himself was unaware of.
This is impossible!
How could that guy named Chen Yifan unleash such pure and terrifying power?
That power, even through the screen, made him feel a tremor that came from his very soul.
He had always thought that Chen Yifan was nothing more than a rough diamond with extraordinary talent, a sharp enough tool to help him obtain the fragments of the "Core of the World".
Now he realizes just how wrong he was.
That's not a rough jade, it's an active volcano disguised as a rock!
"Beep...beep..."
The backup power started with difficulty, and several secondary screens lit up again, switching the display to a satellite view of the Black Forest Manor.
The entire manor has been turned into a burning crater.
"Chen Yifan! Answer me! Did you hear me?!"
Lin Tian grabbed the communicator and shouted at the top of his lungs, but all he got in response was the dead silence of the static.
"Damn it!"
He slammed his fist hard on the metal control panel, making a loud "bang".
He wasn't worried about Chen Yifan's life or death.
What a joke! How could someone who can unleash that kind of power and attract the "Cleaners" possibly die so easily!
He was terrified!
The feeling of losing control—that a plan had been completely overturned and the pawn had become the player—chilled him to the bone!
Cleaners...
That word was like a nightmare, instantly triggering his most painful memories.
His parents were wiped out by the "Cleansers" who descended from the sky during the crazy ascension ceremony of the "Eternal Life Society"!
Chen Yifan not only attracted the Cleaners, but he even survived right under their noses!
"What...what kind of monster are you...?"
Lin Tian slumped back into his chair, looking utterly dejected, and muttered to himself.
He suddenly looked up, rushed to a computer that was on, and frantically typed on the keyboard, bringing up all the information about Chen Yifan.
He scrutinized every word and punctuation mark meticulously, from his student admission records to his record of climbing the Tower of Heaven.
A reassessment is necessary!
This man must never again be treated as a simple tool!
……
The secret base of the Council of Order.
It was deathly silent here.
The agent, wearing a silver mask, stood motionless in front of the completely blacked-out surveillance wall, like a statue.
Behind him, several researchers didn't even dare to breathe.
After a long while, the agent slowly raised his hand, removed the mask from his face, and revealed a bloodless face.
"He... he actually..."
His voice was hoarse and dry, no longer carrying its usual composure.
That terrifying external force fluctuation, that giant hand constructed from pure spiritual power, and that final white light that judged all things... every image was etched into his mind like a brand.
He was wrong.
It was wrong from the very beginning.
Chen Yifan is not a promising "experiment E-97213" at all.
It was a variable that was disguised in human skin, incomprehensible, and uncontrollable...
"The Cleaners...why didn't they erase him?"
One of the researchers finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
This is also the issue that the agent finds most perplexing.
The Cleaners are the most ruthless lackeys of the "World Engine".
Their purpose is to eliminate anything that exists outside the rules.
Even those who know about it or have seen it will be ruthlessly erased.
The external power emanating from Chen Yifan was so dense that it had become tangible, it was like a searchlight in the dark. How could the Cleaners possibly let him go?
unless……
Does he essentially supersede the "cleaner's" rules of judgment?
The moment the thought crossed the agent's mind, a chill ran down his spine.
"Order."
He put the mask back on, and his voice returned to its icy tone.
"Raise the threat level of target 'Chen Yifan' from 'Controllable' to the highest level."
"The highest level?!" the researcher behind him exclaimed in shock. "Isn't that a contingency plan only activated when facing the guardians of the twelve zodiac animals, or even when an outer god descends?!"
"implement."
The agent offered no explanation, only coldly uttering two words.
He walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the distant horizon where the flames were about to disappear.
"He is no longer a pawn."
"He's a madman... who's planning to overturn the whole chessboard."
……
Inside an abandoned underground air-raid shelter in Kyoto.
After confirming that it was safe to enter, Chen Yifan slipped inside.
He took out the alloy diary he had obtained from Li Yuantu's safe from his storage space.
The metal casing was cold and hard.
He turned to the first page, and a sense of madness and ambition washed over him.
"...I have finally made contact with the great being of the 'Flesh and Blood Source.' As long as I offer enough sacrifices, I will gain eternal life..."
[...The flesh and blood of S-rank talents are indeed the best catalyst, especially that girl named Su Qingxue. Her 'Ice Throne' talent has produced a wonderful reaction with the power of 'Source'...]
Chen Yifan flipped through the pages quickly with a blank expression; all the content was within his expectations.
Until, at the end of a certain page, his finger suddenly stopped.
The last line of the diary was written in blood, a line of messy and distorted words.
[The "Lamp Bearer" must never know that "that thing" is inside the Sky Tower at Kyoto University!]
