Capítulo 1161: Chapter 332: Meeting with the Elders!
From beginning to end, from being parasitized to losing control of his body, Yuan Gu never begged for mercy, nor did he abandon his pride as a Venerable. From the first day he was captured by Fang Ze and brought back until now, he has upheld the dignity expected of a Venerable.
Fang Ze watched his silhouette gradually fall into silence, looking for more than ten seconds before letting out a long sigh.
Then he sensed the new life parasitizing Yuan Gu’s body and silently walked out of the prison.
From ancient times to the present, there have been too many stories of “heroes of the enemy, villains to me.” The different positions and paths of the two sides are the original sin….
What Fang Ze can do is to make good use of Yuan Gu’s power to help the Human Race reach the end, to end the reincarnation, which is the greatest respect for Yuan Gu….
Just like that, leaving the prison, closing the prison gate, Fang Ze took advantage of not having transformed back to his original form and closed his eyes to feel the Divine Power within “himself.”
Although it is said that a Venerable’s Divine Power is infinite, this is actually a figurative expression: meaning that under normal use, a Venerable need not worry about the consumption of Divine Power and lifespan for nearly ten thousand years. Even at a high intensity of combat, a Venerable can continuously fight for months to years. This endurance far exceeds that of other Demigods.
And during this period, the Divine Power in Venerable Yuan Gu’s body has been consumed by repeated battles, Rebirth, Fang Ze and Elder Councilor Chen’s ascension to Absolute Pinnacle, and now supplying [As Words Command], amounting to a full one-third.
Among them, [As Words Command] has consumed the most, using at least a quarter of Yuan Gu’s Divine Power.
Although the conditions achieved by [As Words Command] this time were extremely high, targeting the enemy: Yuan Gu’s power was too strong, it also proves from another angle that this ability indeed consumes greatly.
No wonder He Weidao directly sacrificed his life to use this move.
However, regardless of the outcome, Fang Ze now possesses at least combat power at the Venerable level, and now that [Spiritual Parasitism] has controlled Yuan Gu’s spirit and body, he only needs to let it develop Spiritual Wisdom, undergo some training, and then it can be used by Fang Ze, providing immense help.
Thinking of this, Fang Ze couldn’t help but smile.
Immediately afterward, Fang Ze checked several rooms, confirmed no issues, and then left the Late-Night Investigation Room…..
After Fang Ze left, these rooms, whose creator and real purpose were unknown, slowly fell into darkness.
Just like that, an unknown amount of time passed.
Maybe over thirty minutes, perhaps several hours.
Demigd Prison “Hai” Cell, in the pitch-black cell. Originally stiff all over, unable to move, Yuan Gu slowly straightened his body.
The Spirit Flame in his eye sockets reignited, like two clusters of ghostly fire, exceptionally eerie in the dark cell.
After confirming Fang Ze wouldn’t return, he looked down at the ink green color that had expanded to cover his entire Divine Soul, the Spirit Flame in his eye sockets flickered slightly, and his thoughts slowly clashed within the cell.
‘This plant named [Spiritual Parasitism] is indeed powerful. If not for the Venerable’s special trait, even an Absolute Pinnacle Demigod might be unable to escape.’
‘However, at most I can only delay for a period, to truly dispel it still requires restoring my power.’
Thinking of this, Yuan Gu couldn’t help but look toward the door,
‘Fang Ze should have been fooled by me just now, right?’
‘Let’s hope he lets his guard down and releases me. Then, with a calculated mind, it’s not just dispelling this strange thing; even countering him might be possible.’
‘That would be truly resolving this crisis.’
Thinking of this, Yuan Gu fixed his gaze on the Demigd Prison’s cell door for a while, then sighed slightly, gradually lowered his head again, and the Spirit Flame in his eyes slowly dimmed.
Just like that, he retracted his consciousness into a small cluster, fully released his spirit and body once more, letting [Spiritual Parasitism] take control….
And as consciousness fell into silence, Yuan Gu’s last thought was,
‘However…. where exactly did Fang Ze get these strange things from?’
‘Is it truly destined by fate?’
‘Destined fate? Haha….’
‘That could be the biggest lie in the world.’
……
The next day.
As soon as Fang Ze got up, the personnel from the External Affairs Department of Central State were already waiting outside the door.
Perhaps because of the “successful resolution” of Fang Ze’s anger crisis yesterday and being commended, these personnel showed radiant faces, their smiles becoming much more genuine.
Like last night, Fang Ze did not trouble them but instead cooperated amiably to have breakfast with their company before going together to meet several elders of the Federation.
For this meeting with the elders, Fang Ze was transported within Polaris City on a Water Droplet Aircraft.
Looking from the outside, this aircraft somewhat resembles the scaled-down version of spaceships envisaged in science fiction novels from Fang Ze’s previous life: shaped like a water droplet, cohesive throughout, shimmering with a silver metallic glow.
The way to enter was by placing one’s hand on the side of the aircraft, and the liquid metal constituting the aircraft would automatically part, creating a hole large enough for one person to pass through, allowing passengers to enter one by one.
Once inside, the interior structure resembled that of ordinary vehicles, with several rows of seats and safety belts. As for the differences, beyond its speed being far superior to regular vehicles, the greatest distinction might be the truly 360-degree panoramic “skylight.”
Although the liquid metal is opaque from the outside, from inside, one can see the outside scenes clearly: somewhat akin to one-way glass.
Thus, it also allows passengers inside the aircraft to see not only the front and rear but even the scene beneath their speeding feet—though everything appears covered by a light gray veil.
Riding this high-tech aircraft, it didn’t take long for Fang Ze to arrive at the Federation Central Building, entirely crafted from malleable shape-shifting metal.
After layers of scrutiny and waiting for about ten minutes, Fang Ze finally met with several elders of the Federation.
The Federation’s sincerity was indeed remarkable; for this meeting with Fang Ze, not only did the Federation Chairperson attend in person, but the other four elders collectively joined.
However, the meeting place between the two parties was not an office or conference room, but the Chairperson’s reception room. This also indicates the Federation elders’ message to Fang Ze: this was not a public meeting but a private contact, allowing both sides to speak freely without worrying about the impact—even if there were disagreements.
And it was at this moment that Fang Ze formally met these five Controllers of the Federation.
The current Chairperson of the Federation is surnamed Qing, dressed in the Federation’s specially made Chairperson’s grand attire, appearing luxurious and dignified, exuding authority naturally. He is the leader of the entire Polaris Federation and humanity, overseeing everything.
The first ranked Vice Chairperson is surnamed Tian, dressed in a Zhongshan Suit. His jurisdiction covers economy, people’s livelihood, propaganda, planning, and daily violent institutions. Departments like the Security Bureau and the Investigation Bureau fall under his scope, making him of high position and great power.
The second ranked Vice Chairperson is surnamed Wei, dressed in military attire. His jurisdiction is, of course, the allied military, including the Federal Defense Teams across states and regions and even the Spirit Realm Mountain defenses, which he manages and deploys.
The third ranked Vice Chairperson is surnamed Jing, dressed in a Black Clothed. The major departments in his hands are the powerful Special Service Department and several other intelligence agencies. His responsibilities revolve around intelligence, espionage, and anti-espionage matters.
The fourth ranked Vice Chairperson, however, is dressed ordinarily, only his hair entirely white, clearly the type of person who exhausts his efforts and heart. His surname is Meng. Internal data from various Federal departments indicate his jurisdiction covers areas like education and scientific research.
But Fang Ze suspects that the Polaris Base and Polaris Plan are also likely under his management.
Among the elders, the one Fang Ze is most concerned with is naturally the Black Clothed Deputy Chairperson Jing. After all, according to last night’s intelligence, Deputy Chairperson Jing is likely an extremist and could very well be the mastermind behind the recent missing train case.
So, from the moment he entered, Fang Ze paid most of his attention to him.
However, whether there was some misunderstanding or Deputy Chairperson Jing’s skill was too deep, Fang Ze did not find a single problem with him throughout the entire meeting.
