Logically speaking, it shouldn't be that the other party had eyes but didn't recognize Mount Tai and mistook Tiger for Page. Then, they acted like a snob and attacked at the slightest disagreement. After being taught a lesson by Huai Shi, they continued to pester him.
After killing the cannon fodder, the cadres would come. After killing the cadres, the leaders would come. In the end, the leader of the Barren Sons, Sand King, was furious and personally attacked Huai Shi. Then, Huai Shi made a phone call and turned him into ashes under the bombardment of the Bifrost?
Why was the plot wrong from the beginning?
Huai Shi scratched her head, unable to figure it out.
But he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At least he wasn't dragged into any trouble this time.
As for Sand King's invitation, after some consideration, Huai Shi agreed.
A Level 5 Sublimator was a big boss no matter where, especially a crowned one. It could be said that he was one of the rulers of Australia.
He was giving face to the Astronomy Association, not to a small fry like him.
No matter what, he couldn't be shameless.
Besides, there was free food everywhere. How could he not eat?
.
.
There was still some time before dinner. Huai Shi took out his phone, intending to check the background of Sand King.
However, just as he turned on his phone, a series of natural disaster alerts popped up … Yes, it was about the radiation storm a week ago.
Huai Shi looked up expressionlessly and looked at the embarrassed Crow beside him.
"… Is this what you said? Since you want excitement, you should follow through to the end?"
"Aiya, when did I say something so shameless?" Crow covered her face shyly. "You're so slutty."
"…"
Huai Shi rolled her eyes and didn't want to talk to her anymore.
Sooner or later, she would be angered to death.
Through the authority of the Astronomy Association, he quickly found out the details of Sand King's deeds.
Reed Turner.
Fifty-one years old, an Australian Sublimator. At the age of 39, he inherited the title of the previous Sand King and became the new crowned one, as well as the leader of the Barren Sons.
However, the strange thing was that, as an expert, an expert, an expert, he rarely fought with others. There was basically no record of him fighting in public.
Moreover, the brutal image of the Sons of Barren was swept away. In just a few years, they had completed the internal changes of the organization and the change of route, and actively participated in Australian politics.
Now, he had become an indispensable member of the Australian government, and the Desolate Sons had changed from a warlord to a border army of Australia.
It could be said that this person had made an indelible contribution to the stability of Australia. He didn't rely on violence to achieve his career. Instead, he relied on his outstanding leadership and popularity to reach where he was today.
Even his former competitor, the son of the previous Sand King, had rejected the inheritance of the crown before his father's death, choosing to pass the honor to his elder brother who had grown up with him.
In the photo, Sand King was smiling. He was filled with a warm aura. There was no trace of the solemn and tyrannical aura on the black sail.
It was hard to imagine that this person was one of the most influential people in the present world … According to the estimation of the Central Bureau, the cultivation points accumulated by the previous Sand Kings were at least nine percent!
The Sand King's crown itself represented the endless desert of Australia, as well as the countless mineral deposits that had been excavated in it. As long as this desert still existed and the mineral deposits were not exhausted, then it would constantly affect the present world.
After hundreds of years, it wasn't strange to be able to accumulate nine percent of the Correction Value.
According to Crow's explanation of the Correction Value.
People thirsted for change.
No, it should be said that as long as people existed, change would be born.
And this change to the entire world was the embodiment of the Correction Value and the degree of distortion.
Breathing would also produce a Correction Value. Even if this effect was so weak that it could be ignored, only 0.001 in a billion, it still had an impact on the present world.
It was just that the changes that high-level Ascendants sometimes made to the world were too great, causing this change to be observable.
Whether it was the Correction Value or the degree of distortion, they were the names and quantifications of this change.
If the impact on the world was positive, then it was called the Correction Value. On the contrary, if the entire world was deteriorated, then it was called the degree of distortion.
Under certain conditions, the Correction Value and the degree of distortion could also be passed on.
As long as one had a treasure that was compatible with one's Sacred Mark, whether it was a Sacred Mark relic of the same lineage, a miracle mark, or a relic of authority, it didn't matter. After going through a complicated secret ritual, one could integrate it into one's Sacred Mark and use it as the main body to maintain the Correction Value.
This way, after the Ascendant died, their life's efforts would not be in vain. It would also allow their descendants to inherit this gift from their ancestors, saving them a lot of time and allowing them to inherit the fire and achievements of their ancestors.
It was said that when using some of the highest level miracle marks, a large amount of Correction Value would even be needed to be burned to unleash its true power, to the extent that it could change the world.
But that was too far away from Huai Shi.
Crow had never told him that he had to work hard to find his own goal in life. If he didn't work hard, he would only be able to go back and inherit the tens of billions of inheritance in the Utopia in the future. He would no longer be able to work and struggle freely …
Moreover, in a sense, this portion of the Correction Value was jointly held by the Utopia and Golden Dawn.
If he wanted to fish meat from the Golden Dawn's bowl, he had to be strong enough. Otherwise, let alone meat, he wouldn't even be able to drink the soup. He could only watch the Golden Dawn's Abyss otakus eat hot dry noodles.
From the day he picked up the Book of Destiny, Huai Shi was destined to be an enemy of Golden Dawn. Moreover, he was a big problem for them …
And the Central Bureau might not be willing to let this Correction Value fall into the hands of others. In the face of excessive value, Huai Shi's personal will was too insignificant.
Moreover, he still had the Book of Destiny, which represented the Master of Celestial genealogy.
If it weren't for the layers of fog concealing the whereabouts of the Book of Destiny, as well as the Book of Destiny's interference with prophecies, Huai Shi would have been dead long ago. How could he still be so happy being a traitor like he was now?
This was something she deliberately hid from Huai Shi.
In the beginning, it was because she wanted to pursue the stability of the plan so that her contractor wouldn't collapse under too much pressure. Now, the reason was gradually changing.
From the bottom of her heart, she hoped that in addition to rebuilding the Utopia, Huai Shi could have his own pursuits, his own achievements, and a life of his own.
"You have to work hard, Huai Shi," Crow suddenly said.
"Hmm? What's wrong? "
The young man raised his head blankly.
"No, it's nothing." Crow chuckled softly. "Big sister has high hopes for you."
She's up to something again.
Huai Shi couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. He got up and walked into the bathroom.
At least someone was treating him to a meal.
Let's clean up …
.
.
Half an hour later, in the revolving restaurant on the top floor, Sand King, who was sitting next to the table, finally met this rookie from the Astronomy Society.
As one of the actual rulers of Australia, he had already investigated Huai Shi's background through his own channels after his subordinates reported to him.
At least on the surface, all the details were clear.
Even so, he couldn't connect the young man who walked into the restaurant with the unkempt traveler in the video.
After washing away the dust and changing into a suit he bought at the last minute, the young man became completely different from what he expected.
It was stunning.
There was no frivolity of a young man, nor was there the arrogance he expected.
His smile was gentle and calm.
His beautiful appearance was enough to make people have a good impression, but Sand King was already past the age of looking at appearance. What surprised him was the rare high-spirited demeanor of the young man.
He was like a knight marching forward with fire in the dark night. The moist wind blowing in the desert made people feel at ease and happy. They wanted to get along with him.
They wanted to be friends with such a person.
At this moment, Sand King no longer had any doubts about the complicated resume. After so many years, his understanding, experience, and even intuition told him that such a person should achieve something.
If he could continue to maintain this demeanor, one day, he would be able to become the role model of the Astronomy Society, right?
In a rare move, the crowned Australian got up from his seat and nodded politely to his guest. It wasn't because he was afraid of the Astronomy Society's power, but because he should show respect to a real guest.
"Welcome to Australia, Mr. Huai Shi."
The white-haired, genial old man reached out and shook Huai Shi's hand.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Your Excellency Sand King."
Huai Shi didn't reject the old man's kindness and made it clear that he was a guest. Since Sand King was being so polite, it would be embarrassing if he took advantage of him.
Not only did he not mention the offense of those people, but he also thanked Sand King. After all, it was the Son of Desolation's car that brought him to Canberra.
Everyone tacitly put this little bit of unhappiness to the back of their minds.
After the appetizer was served, Sand King pondered for a moment and said, "You are a delightful guest, Mr. Huai Shi. I don't want to hide anything from an honest guest like you, nor do I want to play tricks.
Therefore, allow me to ask you a direct question — "
He looked at Huai Shi cautiously and asked, "Did you come because of the Astronomy Society, or …"
"It's purely personal."
Before he could finish, Huai Shi had already answered.
Sand King relaxed a little, then his expression became serious and solemn. "So, are you here to participate in the fight for the Golden Amber?"
"No." Huai Shi shook his head. "I'm traveling."
In a short silence, Sand King quietly studied his face. His gaze wasn't sharp or aggressive, nor did it show any suspicion. It was as if he was just waiting for Huai Shi to finish speaking.
Soon, his expression relaxed and he took the initiative to raise his wine glass.
"Then, I wish you a pleasant trip." Sand King toasted. "To express my sincere gratitude, I, as the host, will bear all your expenses in Canberra."
"There's no need for that."
Huai Shi shook his head. "I'm guessing you have something important to do. If you're worried, you can arrange for people to follow me. I'm not interested in the fight in Australia. Besides, I'll be leaving soon.
I'm not a hidden danger that you should be worried about, Your Excellency Sand King. In fact … I'm not interested in what's going on here. “
He paused and said seriously, "You should be worried about whether the Astronomy Society will agree to your plan."
"I believe that I'm not on the opposite side of the world," Sand King replied frankly. "I'm happy to let the Astronomy Society participate in this, but in fact … the Astronomy Society doesn't care if my plan succeeds or not."
So, everything that needed to be confirmed before the meal was over.
Are you sure I'm not a troublemaker? I'm sure you won't cause trouble.
We can continue to be friends, even if it's just on the surface.
Sand King didn't have to worry about the S-ranked military officer of the Astronomy Society being hostile to him. Huai Shi also didn't have to worry about not being able to leave after the meal.
"But, do you mind if I ask you a question?" Huai Shi asked.
"Please go ahead."
Sand King took a sip of his aperitif, put down his glass, and waited quietly for Huai Shi to speak.
Huai Shi was silent for a moment before asking directly.
"What exactly is the 'Golden Amber' that you mentioned?"
.
.
.
.
.
.
Thank you for your tolerance. I'll work hard and write another chapter.
Also, I'll recommend a new book: "I'm Really an Intern."
"I'm really an intern! It's just that my face is a little dark. "
Difficult diseases? Emergency treatment?
Calm down. That's my daily routine.
This was the story of a young doctor with bad luck who was forced to go on the road of saving lives.
