Chapter 96: 94, Mirror System Talent, exotic beast lurking.

Several people entered Lu Lin’s Star Power Domain one after another, but none of them discovered anything.

At this moment, Cen Xian brought the Saturn Governor and his entourage to the Cultivation Room.

"Governor Bai, the man in the white T-shirt in the middle is Lu Lin," Cen Xian introduced to the Governor beside him.

Saturn Governor Bai Jingwei, a Seventh-Level Golden Body Realm Star Core Warrior, was not the tallest among the military leaders, but he stood at 1.75 meters with a well-proportioned build and neatly combed hair.

When Bai Jingwei arrived, the crowd parted to make way for him.

His title of Governor was not solely due to his position; it was also thanks to his Talent for a special attribute: Mirror System. This was an extremely rare special attribute within the Human Federation. With his Mirror System Talent, Bai Jingwei could be considered the foremost individual below the Ninth Level.

Arriving before Lu Lin, just as a Level 6 Peak soldier was exiting the Star Power Domain, Governor Bai asked, "How was it?"

"Governor," the Level 6 soldier saluted immediately. "When I entered Lu Lin’s Star Power Domain, I didn’t find anything out of the ordinary, but I did comprehend two Star Skills."

"Oh, another with Double Star Skills?" Governor Bai’s tone lifted. "This year, Saturn has only had just over two million awakened martial artists, but the number of those comprehending Double Star Skills has increased significantly compared to last year."

"Elder Cen, do you have the specific data on Lu Lin guiding Double Star Skills?"

"Yes." Cen Xian pulled out a series of data points. "After Lu Lin returned to Saturn from Blue Star, he guided Star Skills successively in Tata City, Linbei City, the Mingze City Guard Garrison, and the Maolin Training Base. A total of 1,804 individuals were guided, with a 100% success rate. Among them, 161 people comprehended Double Star Skills, accounting for 8.92% of the total."

"That’s quite impressive," Governor Bai remarked. During this year’s graduation season, the Saturn Governor’s Mansion had issued an order, calling on all Star Guides in Saturn to go out and help awakened martial artists comprehend Star Skills. This directly led to a substantial increase in the number of people in Saturn comprehending Star Skills this year compared to the last.

Among them, the most eye-catching Star Guide was Lu Lin. Even when considering Saturn’s small number of Master-level Star Guides, Lu Lin’s achievements were dazzling.

In the center of the group, Lu Lin also opened his eyes and looked at Zhuge Li beside him. "Master Zhuge, is there anyone else who needs to be tested?"

Zhuge Li shook his head with a wry smile. Several people had already gone in without discovering the cause; allowing more people to enter Lu Lin’s Star Power Domain in such a short time was unlikely to change anything. Besides, Bai Jingwei had now arrived. Zhuge Li turned to him and said, "Governor Bai, Elder Cen, I’m out of ideas for the moment."

Bai Jingwei, after understanding the situation with the previous individuals, suddenly spoke, "Everyone, what if Lu Lin’s Star Power Domain can only help exotic beasts advance?"

"This..."

As soon as Bai Jingwei’s words came out, a wave of audible gasps went through the crowd. But upon careful consideration, it seemed to make sense. They had all rushed here after watching the video of Monroe advancing. Perhaps, as Bai Jingwei suggested, Lu Lin’s Star Power Domain could only help exotic beasts advance.

"Hehe, no need to be overly surprised, everyone. Lu Lin," Bai Jingwei said, "could you guide another exotic beast wolfhound into your Star Power Domain for a test?"

"Of course, no problem." Lu Lin knew the man before him was the Governor of Saturn and dared not be disrespectful.

"Excellent. Elder Cen, I’ll trouble you then."

Bai Jingwei turned to Cen Xian, who gestured for Hu Nan to bring over several exotic beast wolfhounds. The East Forest Continent Western Region General Manager, recognizable by his silver Star Core badge, had now become an errand boy.

Shortly after, Hu Nan returned with three Black-Backed Wolfhounds. Governor Bai signaled for everyone to give Lu Lin space, and they all retreated to the monitoring room near the Cultivation Room to await news.

"Little Lu, just do your best. Don’t feel any pressure," Hu Nan said comfortingly after the others had left, worried Lu Lin might be nervous. "Governor Bai and Elder Cen are just here to observe; they won’t make any demands on you."

"Don’t worry, General Manager Hu. Let’s begin."

Lu Lin placed his hand on the head of one wolfhound. This particular wolfhound had just witnessed Lu Lin helping Monroe advance. Now, seeing Lu Lin about to guide it, it let out a soft WHINE, closed its eyes, and allowed Lu Lin to draw it into the Star Power Domain.

「One minute later.」

In the monitoring room, Governor Bai, Zhuge Li, Cen Xian, and other prominent figures once again witnessed a magical scene unfold on the surveillance screen.

A burst of earthy-yellow light emanated from the wolfhound. This color was different from the light they had seen Monroe emit in the previous video. The light continued to radiate outwards.

The numbers on the instrument monitoring the Star Power index began to skyrocket:

99.

134.

157.

...

The Star Power index finally stopped rising when it reached 228. This meant the wolfhound had completed its advancement and was now a Level 2 Black-Backed Wolfhound.

"Divine skill!"

"Unbelievable!"

"This is impossible!"

Gasps of astonishment echoed through the monitoring room. Even though they had seen it once before in the video, it didn’t compare to witnessing it firsthand. This scene, unfolding right before their very eyes, left everyone in awe.

A smile touched Bai Jingwei’s lips. Look at that, he thought with some satisfaction. All these leaders from Saturn’s Military Department spent hours at Maolin getting nowhere. But as soon as I arrived, I figured out the secret to Lu Lin helping exotic beasts advance.

Through the monitor, Bai Jingwei noticed Lu Lin’s expression seemed a bit off. Could it be that helping exotic beasts advance like this places a significant drain on Lu Lin?

In the Cultivation Room, Hu Nan also noticed Lu Lin’s demeanor. "Lu Lin, what’s wrong? Are you low on Star Power?"

Lu Lin shook his head. "No, General Manager Hu. I suddenly remembered something. Back in Blue Star Tongyuan, I once guided a Star Skill for the secretary of City Lord Song Qianjun. That person not only comprehended Double Star Skills but also advanced from the Third Level to the Fourth Level."

"If... if Governor Bai’s prediction is true, and I can only help exotic beasts advance, then Secretary Hou..."

Lu Lin didn’t finish his sentence, but Hu Nan understood.

In the monitoring room, Bai Jingwei, Zhuge Li, and Cen Xian naturally also grasped Lu Lin’s implication. It meant that the secretary from the Tongyuan Governor’s Mansion was very likely not human.

「Monitoring Room.」

Governor Bai slammed his palm heavily on the table. "Investigate! Contact the Blue Star Governor. I want all information on this Secretary Hou! If it’s an Exotic Beast or Alien Race from different regions, infiltrating in disguise, our Human Federation could be in grave danger!"

"Yes, sir!" Governor Bai’s secretary acknowledged and immediately contacted the Blue Star Governor. After explaining the matter in detail, the secretary also sent the two videos of Lu Lin guiding exotic beasts and helping them advance to the Blue Star Governor.

The Blue Star Governor took the matter very seriously and immediately began making arrangements.

A heavy mood settled over everyone. Was the dreaded day that humanity had always worried about finally arriving?

In the Exotic Battlefield, there were many humanoid alien races. If they wished, they could completely disguise their identities and infiltrate the Human Federation. Not only Alien Races, but some exotic beasts also possessed methods to change their forms and mimic auras and bloodlines. Human Star Core Warriors had suffered similar attacks in the Exotic Battlefield before; those who had barely escaped such encounters still grew pale at the mere mention of it.

While they waited, Lu Lin successively guided the remaining Black-Backed Wolfhounds that had reached Level 1 Peak, enabling them all to advance to Level 2.

In the monitoring room, Governor Bai and the others awaited news from Blue Star.

Bai Jingwei’s expression was grim. If Secretary Hou truly is an exotic beast spy infiltrated into the human world, then are there others? And if so, who prepared all their identity documents for them?
