Max Level Return—I'll Protect That Fragile One

Upon hearing this, the colleagues were somewhat surprised.

"Adonis, who exactly are these two people?" Before the destruction of Hell Palace, the Divine Martial Realm had never heard of these two individuals.

They appeared out of nowhere and gained fame overnight.

Adonis started to introduce the identities of Huo Wen’an and Xu Xingguang: "Combat Doll No. 099, real name Huo Wen’an, from the Mortal World Huo Family, is the Huo Family Leader. Combat Doll No. 100, named Xu Xingguang, is the Lady Captain of the Huo Family and this year she was accepted into the Ying Family of the Central Yu Alliance to study as a Doctor."

"People from the Mortal World Huo Family?" The colleagues were stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, "Turns out they’re just trash from the Mortal World, we thought they belonged to some prestigious family."

"If they’re trash from the Mortal World, then they’ll be even easier to deal with."

The Super Power Users are the rulers of the Divine Martial Realm, looking down on the commoners of this realm, and even more disdainful towards the ’trash’ from the Mortal World.

Even the Huo Family from the Mortal World is considered insignificant in their eyes.

Trash is still trash, whether dignified or humble.

Adonis observed their reactions and thought that their underestimating attitude would cost them, kindly reminding them: "The Mortal World used two thousand years to develop from a population-endangered civilizational gap to its current scale, creating its own civilization and social system, which is quite impressive."

"Their technology is backward, but that’s a matter of time. Give them another two thousand years, and it’s uncertain who would be the technological leader."

"The Mortal World may be small and backward, but that doesn’t mean they’re weak and easily bullied. Don’t forget, this year only three individuals from the Mortal World were brought to the Ying Family of the Central Yu Alliance to study medicine, and the man on Bai Ze Island is not among them."

Adonis stood up with his tray, furrowing his brows, and pondered: "To be able to pass through the Barrier unnoticed into the Divine Martial Realm, this Huo Wen’an is definitely not as simple as you perceive."

Although Adonis didn’t know what means Huo Wen’an used to kill Yan Wusheng, it was a fact that Yan Wusheng died at the hands of Huo Wen’an, which was confirmed by all the criminals on Bai Ze Island.

Seeing Adonis having such regard for the Mortal World and great respect for Huo Wen’an, these colleagues considered him to be making a mountain out of a molehill.

"Adonis, he barely reorganized a Bai Ze Island. You can’t possibly think he’ll reorganize the entire Divine Martial Realm next!"

"Hahaha, you’re really overestimating him."

Faced with their mockery, Adonis wasn’t angry nor did he laugh, he simply swept his calm gaze over them and said placidly, "He was able to kill Yan Wusheng, can any of you?"

The table fell silent.

Yan Wusheng was a ’traitor’ from the Eastern Alliance; although not the most formidable super power user in the Alliance Army, he was a top ten elite.

The strongest Super Power Users have all joined the army, as for these civil officials manipulating political affairs from office, although they have some combat capability, they are by no means a match for Yan Wusheng.

"Do not underestimate." Adonis admonished them: "That No. 100, named Xu Xingguang, is the wife of Huo Wen’an, and she single-handedly destroyed Hell Palace, which means she might be able to kill any of you as well."

"Be extra cautious these days."

Adonis left, holding his tray.

Having spoken his piece, listening or believing is up to them, he cannot force it.

The colleagues stared at Adonis’s departing figure in silence for a while before someone sneered, "Well, being the director of the Investigation Bureau, how can he undermine his prestige to bolster others?"

Seeing Adonis put down his tray and walk out alongside the Security Gate’s Director Ying Chenzhou, the colleagues once again showed indifferent smiles.

"Two stubborn old fools!"

Ying Chenzhou also heard the conversation between Adonis and those colleagues. The two walked together into the observation elevator, heading to the top floor parking lot.

Gazing at the city’s nightscape through the transparent glass, with splendid night lights and cool-designed smart sports cars whizzing by on the Five Elements Road in the city center.

At the distant city edges, the endless maze of closely huddled shanty townhouses, the slums barely had any streetlights, only an intensely bright solar lamp in the high skies illuminating the slums starkly white.

Ying Chenzhou looked at the distant slums and said to Adonis, "No matter how much you tell them, they’ll only take it as a joke, thinking you’re just a coward."

Adonis leaned casually against the elevator glass, looking at the glaring solar lamp in the far distance sky, he asked Ying Chenzhou, "With such a huge lamp overhead, would you be able to sleep?"

Ying Chenzhou: "When I was young, I lived there."

Only then did Adonis remember that Ying Chenzhou was from the slum, his ancestors had been commoners, yet he awakened the Fire Control Superpower, lifting himself out of poverty into the upper echelons of society.

"You went to Beiwang Cape this time," Adonis asked him, "What’s the current situation on Bai Ze Island?"

After Yan Wusheng was killed, Hell Palace was destroyed, and Bai Ze Island’s aerial surveillance was sabotaged, the Eastern Alliance lost surveillance control over Bai Ze Island.

Now what changes are happening on Bai Ze Island, they are not aware.

"Heard Bai Ze Island has completely transformed, now called Bai Ze Realm, and Yan Wusheng’s Demon Palace was turned into Bai Ze Mansion. Beyond that, nothing else known."

"That Huo Wen’an, how exactly did he kill Yan Wusheng?" Adonis asked curiously, "Could he be a Super Power User too? The Mortal World is an infected world, could it really produce a Super Power User?"

Ying Chenzhou still remained silent.

If Adonis didn’t know, how could he?

Seeing Ying Chenzhou not even releasing a grunt, Adonis smartly stopped the topic.

The elevator reached the top level, with both their cars parked closely in the same high-altitude parking area, Ying Chenzhou suddenly said, "Adonis, might you receive a death notice?"

Adonis paused.

Knowing what Ying Chenzhou truly wanted to know, Adonis did not evade the question, instead, he faced Ying Chenzhou’s scrutinizing eyes with a candid attitude and told him, "I am not a Hell Palace member player."

Ying Chenzhou observed him for a moment before averting his gaze, striding towards the parking space.
