Chapter 1016: Chapter 661: Ether Division Agent

A small red-brown-feathered bird flew between the tall buildings.

It flapped its wings, deftly navigating through the alleys, and finally landed on the shoulder of a man in a hooded jacket, chirping twice.

"Finally found it..."

Polaris let out a subtle sigh of relief.

The place where he was standing was the last location where Su Keying’s distress signal appeared.

With the intelligence observed through the red bird, Polaris pulled out some cards for divination and soon tracked down the whereabouts of Su Keying, Wei Yin, and Pumpkin.

Whoosh!

Polaris tossed a piece of checkered cloth from his pocket, obscuring his figure, and with a flick of the cloth, he instantly disappeared from the original spot.

Before long.

He appeared in a giant warehouse area near the Federation Research Center.

Countless gigantic containers were arranged in an orderly fashion, and there were dozens of armed division’s suspended vehicles parked on the open ground. Further away, teams of armed personnel moved in and out of the warehouse gates.

Polaris hid behind a blue container, peering at a delivery van of the armed division.

The divination pointed here, and it was very likely that Su Keying and the others were inside the vehicle.

At this moment, two members of the armed division got off the hover vehicle, tall and muscular, with stern expressions, fully armed, and with metal mechanical structures on their arms and necks, exuding an aura that warned people to keep their distance.

Polaris conducted a divination for his safety once more.

The playing cards swished, drawing out three cards to foretell.

"There’s some danger, but it’s within an acceptable range..."

He thought to himself.

"It seems the armed division’s pursuit team didn’t follow back, only these two are responsible for escorting... Their physical traits can entirely compare to Sequence Seven Transcendents, plus specially made firearms and black-tech equipment, even players inheriting Transcendent powers find it hard to withstand."

With this thought, Polaris seized the opportunity and immediately threw out several card throwing knives.

Swish swish swish—

"Hmm?"

The two armed individuals suddenly turned their heads.

Their neurological networks were modified for quick responses. They grabbed the submachine guns at their waists and fired a burst.

Rat-tat-tat-tat!!

With several ding sounds, bullets precisely hit the cards in mid-air, yet one card managed to evade the barrage and shot straight at the neck of one of the armed members, colliding with the metal structure and sparking, but without causing any harm.

"Heh, an ignorant fool."

The armed member coldly laughed with a semi-mechanical voice.

Bang!

Gas sprayed from the "pores" of the bionic skin on his reformed leg, leveraging internal motion, with powerful force, his foot smashed the ground, propelling him like a lightning phantom. In mere fractions of a second, he reached behind the container, grinning grimly, reaching out to grab Polaris.

Yet he caught nothing but air!

A playing card fluttered down!

Polaris used the "Great Human Transformation" to swap positions with the thrown card. Immediately, he drew a "Spring Knife" that buzzed, and from the black and silver handle popped a blue, semi-transparent high-frequency vibrating blade.

With a cold face, he raised his hand and swung.

Zi-za—

Using the element of surprise, Polaris instantly cleaved the armed personnel in front of the hover vehicle in two.

The opponent looked stunned.

Then burst into uncontrollable rage.

Even though he was chopped in half, the armed personnel did not lose combat ability, raising his arm, with five fingers revealing holes at the tips, firing high-frequency flame jets.

Bang bang bang bang!!

A torrent of dense bullets came sweeping in.

The power surpassed flintlock guns in-game many times over.

Yet Polaris’s hand moved like a butterfly among flowers, the blue blade reached its limit, forming a curtain that split the bullets all in half.

Straight after, he reversed the knife handle, ejecting a metallic baton, and slammed it onto the opponent.

With a boom, a burst of white smoke appeared.

The armed personnel transformed into a brown-skinned pig.

Brandishing his knife, he chopped off the pig’s head.

Blood and various nutrient oils splashed, the armed personnel reverted back, but their neck was empty, with datalines hidden by the spine sparking.

The expression on the fallen head was frozen, with eyes covered by a black filament, flickering with four red letters "Lost Link".

Polaris knew the opponent was not truly dead, because the armed division’s database and memory banks were backed up at the Federation; they could easily be revived again by matching to a new "shell".

By then, the initially empty-handed armed personnel, seeing this, irately turned around and charged at Polaris once more.

"Number 01 fugitive ’Subei’! I am authorized to execute you on the spot!"

"Try it then."

With an arm-length blue blade, Polaris icily replied.

As expected, Polaris resolved the opponent with little effort.

While for most high-tier players, the armed division was extremely troublesome, Polaris, as the first person in the game, his strength was undisputed.

His combat skills were exceptionally high, and against only two armed personnel, they weren’t much trouble for him.

Beep!

Polaris picked up the keys of the two armed personnel, remotely unlocking the vehicle door.

Indeed, Su Keying, Wei Yin, and Pumpkin were leaning against the back seats, unconscious, hands, necks, and feet shackled with specially made restraints, their entire bodies tied to the chairs, with the shackles emitting blue lights.

Besides these three, there were six or seven other unconscious men and women, presumably captured high players.

Polaris knew that tampering with those restraints would cause them to explode, so he operated the palm-sized key a few times, and with two beeps, everyone’s shackles were released.

Polaris surveyed the surroundings, noticing that armed division personnel standing guard far away seemed to have detected something amiss and were approaching, he quickly moved forward, patting Su Keying’s and the others’ cheeks.

"Wake up! Wake up quickly!"

After some smacking, all the players in the vehicle awoke.

"Hiss! That hurts!"

"Where am I?!"

"I haven’t committed any crime! Damn the armed division, what do they intend to do?!"

A wave of agitated noise followed.

Seeing this, Polaris quickly hissed:

"I’m ’Polaris,’ I just took out the armed personnel escorting us. If you don’t want to be captured again, keep quiet!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately fell silent.

Polaris?!

The top player?!

"Thank you, Bei-ge."

At this moment, Pumpkin snapped back to reality and gratefully said to Polaris.

On the other side, a mature and beautiful woman with short silver-white gradient hair brightened her eyes.

"Polaris? What a coincidence, I didn’t expect to meet you offline!"

She said, displaying a smile.

Polaris frowned, as he didn’t know this woman at all.

The other party rolled her eyes and said "resentfully":

"Forgot your junior sister?"

"Sunny Xiaoyu!"

Polaris couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

Su Keying, Wei Yin, and Pumpkin exchanged glances, their expression rather gossipy, is this Bei-ge’s "little girlfriend"?

She does indeed have a great appearance and figure...

"Now is not the time to chat, hurry up and go!"

Polaris took a deep breath and said solemnly.

"I suspect this warehouse district is specifically used for holding transcendent players. The defense force is definitely not weak, if we delay any longer, more armed personnel will quickly arrive!"

"Okay! Let’s leave here first!"

Su Keying and the others understood the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly got out of the vehicle.

Immediately, Polaris led them through the "aisles" between containers, avoiding the sight of armed personnel, and quickly approached the high wall on the outskirts of the warehouse district.

Everyone was transcendent, climbing a wall was a trivial matter for them.

But just at this moment.

A huge noise of wind came from overhead.

Everyone looked up, their faces slightly changed.

They saw a helicopter flying in straight, bright lights shining down, enveloping Polaris and the others.

A handsome man in a fitted azure-colored uniform leaped down from a height of over ten meters from the helicopter, landing lightly on one of the containers with a gentle thud.

On his chest was a badge unique to the Azure Holy Church.

"Federation Ether Division agent?!"

Everyone felt their scalp tingle upon seeing this.

Ether Division agents are the most mysterious group of the Federation, if the armed division inspires fear, then the Ether Division inspires despair.

Being targeted by them is tantamount to a death sentence!

The handsome man folded his arms, his perfect features showing a smile.

His silver-white eyes swept around, finally landing on Polaris.

"Nice to meet you again, Bei-ge."

"Hmm?!"

Polaris prepared himself rigorously, looking at the other party with a frown.

He was certain he had never seen this person before.

"Forgot to introduce myself."

The handsome agent kept his smile, looking down.

"Captain of the Chosen Squad, Luo Fan, we’ve sparred before."

"It’s you!"

Polaris’s pupils contracted slightly, he suddenly recalled.

The other party is a top player on the Constellation path...

Unexpectedly, Luo Fan’s true identity turned out to be a Federation Ether Division agent!

"I may not be your opponent in the game, but in reality, it’s different... Before entering the ’Era of Mystery,’ I was already a mid-sequence transcendent of the Holy Church, having inherited and assimilated the power of the Constellation, my current strength ranks at the forefront of the Ether Division."

Luo Fan said softly.

His eyes flashed with a trace of luck.

If the Saint Ritual wasn’t so difficult, he would definitely be unable to resist ascending to a higher sequence four {Witch} in the game, by then his body in reality wouldn’t be able to assimilate this power, causing a forced shift.

Currently, the situation is just right.

With his own Holy Fire sequence five {Flame Worshiper} ability, he can barely absorb the Constellation sequence five {Charming Demon} power, while maintaining his masculine traits.

The only thing Luo Fan is dissatisfied with is his appearance becoming increasingly delicate and handsome, which doesn’t quite match his aesthetic preferences.

"Sequence Five..."

Polaris’s pupils contracted slightly.

Although he expected the Federation and Azure Holy Church to possess transcendent powers, the strength of the other party still exceeded his expectations.

All the top players present felt their hearts sink.

They are well aware of the gap between sequence five and sequence seven.

Even if they all joined forces, there seems to be little chance of victory.

With a swish, Luo Fan raised his hand, a silver flame burned in his palm, the top players present immediately felt a vertiginous fascination.

The firelight illuminated their faces, involuntarily arousing strong attachment and trust in Luo Fan.

"You can’t escape, why not come back with me."

Luo Fan’s lips moved, speaking softly.

"The Federation just wants you to cooperate with the investigation, they won’t harm you..."

His voice seemed to have a magical power, everyone present believed it without a doubt.

Including Polaris!

His face contorted, struggling a few times, but still affected by Luo Fan’s power, forced to step forward.

"Ha..."

Luo Fan looked at the crowd whose perception was misled, and chuckled softly.

He jumped down from the container, leading towards the warehouse area.

Polaris and the others followed like zombies, silently.

"Another batch of mid-sequence players walking the ten divine paths, ’Great Holy Fire’ can produce more and stronger energy after consuming them, supporting the ’Ark’ to fly further..."

Luo Fan murmured, his mouth overflowing with a hint of excited smile.
