Chapter 146 My Father Will Come to Pick Me Up
Ian decided to go back to the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion first, find Wuji, and then ask Lord Xinglan and the Great Wizard about the Centennial Gold List before making a decision.
What they didn't know was that this incident at the training ground had made them completely famous in the First Legion. It wasn't because of how powerful Ian was, but because of the influence he brought. Even the marshal received some feedback.
One-tenth of the people in the legion had their wallets looted; Ian was invincible at level five; a level five challenged a level six and actually won in a one-on-one duel.
First, most of the people who lost everything secretly cursed Fatty Ian and the others. It was impossible for soldiers to be as wealthy as those at the auction. Most of them were just people from the bottom of society. Second, many people still admired Ian, so there was a craze for cultivation and tasks. How could they cultivate without completing tasks to gain military merit?
……
Two days later, the Avengers returned to the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion, and Xing Lan received them personally.
Logically speaking, there was no need for the Duke of Zhenguo to come and receive them, but Marshal Khant had told Xinglan about what they had done recently, which had far exceeded Xinglan's expectations of them, especially since the five of them were now special forces team numbered 001 and were about to participate in the Gold List competition.
During the dinner, Xinglan gave them enough respect. It was Xinglan and Khant who recommended them to the King of Shu to participate in the Golden List Competition!
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, Ian put down his wine glass and bowl and said to Xing Lan at the top:
"Sir Zhenguogong Nongquan, to be honest, we came back this time to ask why Gu Shu wants to participate in this Golden List Competition?"
Xing Lan put down his wine glass, waved his hand to clear out all the irrelevant people, and sent a message to the great wizard.
After a while, the great wizard appeared in the banquet hall. The great wizard and Xing Lan nodded to each other, and Ian and others stood up to greet him.
The Great Wizard said: "The Golden List Contest is held every hundred years, and Ancient Shu has not participated in it for thousands of years. The main reason is that the outside world has no unified ruler, which has led to thousands of years of chaos, fighting each other, and each ruling its own way. In the long run, human power is getting weaker and weaker, and it is only a matter of time before it is invaded by foreign races.
If that time really comes, we ancient Shu will not be able to remain immune, so you need to really bring out the strengths of the special forces team and unite the brave forces among humans, but this cannot be done overnight, you also need to be famous, so the once-in-a-century Golden List Competition is your opportunity. "
There were many things that the great wizard did not say explicitly, but Ian understood what they meant. As long as the Avengers could unite with the Army of Justice, Ancient Shu would be able to provide their assistance to fight against the alien invasion.
The great wizard continued:
"Your identity is to fight on behalf of the Pang family."
Ian was stunned. He thought a lot about the news from the great wizard:
First, the Pang family are humans from the outside world, and in the early days it was easy for everyone to recognize their identity.
Second, even if Sennaburg of the Central Continent revealed the situation of the Pang family later, it would not matter. As long as Ancient Shu did not make a clear statement, it would give others the opportunity to guess and they would not dare to act rashly. And if things failed, Ancient Shu also had its own way out.
Third, next year Ancient Shu will use the Pang family as a "vanguard", but in fact it is to support the link between the Pang family and the outside world. What's more, Fatty is the young patriarch of the Pang family. This also proves that Ancient Shu is not trying to occupy and unify the outside world, which is more beneficial to future cooperation.
Fourth, the Avengers team has both the identities of outside humans and ancient Shu, and they have a higher degree of freedom. They may be able to do more things, while the people of ancient Shu may not be able to do better.
In short, all the starting points of ancient Shu were for the future of all mankind.
Ian understood, bowed and said: "Ian understands, the Avengers team is also for the future of mankind.
By the way, Great Wizard, how much do you know about the Warring States Temple and the Sky Academy?"
The great wizard snorted coldly and said something that made people confused, "The Warring States Temple is a group of fence-sitters. You will come into contact with the Sky Academy in the future."
Ian nodded. "I have a few more questions that I would like the Great Wizard to answer."
After the great wizard nodded, he continued: "Great wizard, do you know where Wuliang Mountain is?"
"It's not time for you to know where you should be."
Ian felt disappointed. In the final analysis, it was because he was not strong enough to make contact. However, he did not give up the search and changed the subject.
"When will the Gold List Contest start? What are the requirements for participating?"
The Great Wizard shook his head and said, "I don't know the details, but it will be opened within three years, and there is only an age limit for participants, anyone under a hundred years old can participate.
Therefore, you should quickly improve your cultivation level and combat power!"
The five people looked at each other. If they were under a hundred years old, there might be a strong man above level seven among them. This was too terrifying!
They feel the pressure is greater than ever before!
Later, he asked many questions, some of which were answered by the great wizard, and some by the Duke of Zhenguo. Finally, the great wizard took Pei'er away and said he would come back in three days.
……
After the dinner, Ian, Fatty, Xinghun, Selina and Xinglan also said goodbye as they still had things to do.
When they arrived at the backyard, a white light flashed by, and Wuji jumped onto Xinghun's shoulder and kept squeaking. Others couldn't understand him, but Xinghun and Bige could, and Bige acted as a translator.
"The monkey said it missed Xinghun and asked him if the fortress was fun."
Without waiting for Xinghun to answer, Ian said with a smile:
"Of course it's fun. There are delicious food and fun things to do. There are also many exciting adventures along the way. In two days we will go to the human world outside to explore."
The monkey pointed at Ian and squeaked again, meaning "Do you understand me?"
Ian shook his head and reached out to touch Pi Ge's head. "I'm not like Xinghun. The ancient fighting sage is one of the most intelligent beasts. I don't have the ability to be like Xinghun. How can someone who has no fate with you understand?"
Wuji looked at Pi Ge, then at Xing Hun, and his feelings for Xing Hun deepened but also made him feel a little lost.
That's why it likes to stay with Star Soul.
Wuji asked sadly: "Xinghun, are you leaving again?"
"Well, we may rarely come back here. The outside world needs us, and humans need us. And I am also striving to become stronger and punish evil!"
Wuji jumped to the ground, lying on the ground like a puppy, with loneliness and desolation in his eyes.
Wuji, who has not experienced anything, is not mentally mature yet, just like a child.
Xinghun squatted down and comforted it quietly. Ian said:
"Wuji, I can see that Xinghun is reluctant to let you go, but he has to go. Do you...want to go with us?"
Wuji raised his head, his eyes full of hope, but he couldn't leave, so he shook his head, "I want to, but I have to wait for my father to come pick me up."
"Did your father ask you to wait for it here?"
"I don't know. After I fell asleep, my father told me that he would come back to pick me up one day."
