"Since you said that I stole it, there will definitely be fingerprints and aura on it. The Machinery race can check it," said Wang Zhong calmly.
At the side, Wanwan Min nodded. "I checked it when I found it. There are no fingerprints."
Gorst smiled. He had already prepared an explanation for this. However, he did not expect this low-leveled civilization to have such psychological qualities. "It's just erasing fingerprints and aura. Any pupil can do that, let alone a habitual thief like you."
"Since you dared to steal it, you must have considered everything thoroughly. It looks like you are more sinister than we imagined!" Balor finally came to his senses and continued Gorst's words. He was the one in charge of this matter. It was not enough to let Gorst testify from the side. "Brothers, do you believe us, a level-8 Blood Demon, or an Earthling who has just stepped into the divine territory? Are you willing to live with such a despicable person in the Heavenly Gates? "
"Low-leveled civilizations are greedy for money and do not keep their hands clean. This is not the first or second time. It has always been a habitual offender!" At the side, Gorst stirred up his emotions. "Thus, the Heavenly Gates has always rejected the entry of level-4 civilizations. This time, in order to promote equality in the Star Alliance, we have specially given this low-leveled civilization a chance. I never expected that they would treat this chance like this!"
"Scram! Earthlings are not fit to stay in the Heavenly Gates! "
"Poor bastard. He only knows how to steal!"
"There's also his roommate. That pig-like thing. During the pill refinery lesson, he handed in a pile of trash to cheat points. He is similarly despicable and dirty. He is a poor bastard with dirty hands!" Very quickly, the crowd became agitated.
To put it bluntly, Earthlings had no status. In the eyes of the other civilizations in the Star Alliance, especially the heaven-favored ones who could enter the Heavenly Gates, they did not have a good impression of them.
Wang Zhong's expression did not change, but his heart sank.
In reality, it was easy to say that this matter was black or white. The most difficult thing to reconcile was to cause public anger. Earthlings were in a very disadvantageous position. Putting aside the fact that the evidence was disadvantageous to them, even if it was advantageous to them, these fellows who wore colored glasses would think that it was disadvantageous to them.
Now, it depended on the attitude of the Titan supervisor and the Law Enforcement Association. However, it was obvious that the Law Enforcement Association would not easily express their stance. After all, Wang Zhong was a member of the Law Enforcement Association. They had to avoid arousing suspicion.
As for the Titan supervisor, Lao Wang had always felt that this supervisor had discerning eyes and was very secretive. Gorst and Balor were performing a double act. With the foresight of the Titan supervisor, it was impossible for him not to see that there was something fishy about this. However, whether or not Gorst would stand up for Lao Wang was questionable. It would depend on his luck.
The Titan supervisor rubbed his nose calmly. But before he could say anything, Jhonas raised his hand. "Can I say a few words?"
The Titan supervisor raised his eyebrows at him. He did not seem to be in a hurry to come to a conclusion and was waiting for him to speak.
Jhonas squirmed. "I'm not short of money …"
"What?" The Titan supervisor found his voice too soft.
Jonas said loudly, "My name is Jonas Andrew Barbie! I thought, with this surname, I shouldn't be short of money! If I don't lack money, my boss won't lack money either! My family's warehouse is filled to the brim with this kind of trash! "
"The Barbie family …"
Everyone in the surroundings was instantly dumbfounded.
It was not that they did not know that this little flying pig was from the Illusion Race. However, no matter what race it was, there would definitely be rich and poor. Many people knew that Jhonas had used a pile of trash medicinal ingredients to cheat points during the pill refinery lesson. Even if he relied on the name of the Illusion Race to join the Heavenly Gates Chamber of Commerce, he would definitely be the type of person who would enter to eat and drink.
However, the Barbie family … They were the absolute rulers of the Illusion Race! They were said to be as wealthy as a country. Furthermore, since he could directly possess the Barbie surname, he was destined to be one of the heirs! Regardless of what level the Illusion Race was from, in terms of wealth, even the entire Blood Demon Race could not compare to one leg of the Barbie family. After all, the Blood Demon Race was only a branch of a level-8 civilization. Meanwhile, the Barbie family controlled more than 60% of the wealth of the Illusion Race, which was known as the wealthiest race!
One of the wealthiest families in the divine territory was this pig in front of them? Then, a group of people framed him for stealing the krypton gold necklace of a messenger?
… Forget it. As long as one came from the Babi family, not to mention the heir, even if it was a servant, he had never seen anyone worry about money.
Even Gorst and Balor were dumbfounded for a long time. After a long time, someone from the Equipment Refinery Hall could not help but ask, "Then why do you pretend to be poor all the time?"
"That's right. You even handed in the most trashy medicinal ingredients for pill refinery lessons?"
"I'm keeping a low profile …" Jhonas was slightly helpless. Exposing his identity was not part of his plan. "Lord supervisor, I'm here to learn, not to flaunt my wealth. Furthermore, the wealth of the family belongs to the family. I should contribute to the family and not act recklessly."
Simply put, a certain pig had hidden his identity and wanted to play the game of the frog prince. At the same time, he wanted to see if he could find his beloved half in the Heavenly Gates. Furthermore, he was not here because of his identity.
Jhonas had no other choice. If he did not reveal his identity and was convicted of theft like Wang Zhong, he would be done for when he returned to the family.
However, everyone's views instantly changed. There was no need to talk about Jhonas. Just talking about Wang Zhong, everyone suspected that this little fellow had been going to the Pill Refinery District every few days and was renting pill refinery houses every day. To a level-4 civilization, it was difficult not to be suspicious of this kind of spending. However, since he was friends with the Barbie family, this was very normal. It was just renting a low-leveled pill refinery house. How much did it cost? This was something that the Barbie family had casually leaked out. Why would he need to steal?
"Even so, he can't escape suspicion!" Gorst was no longer as confident as before, but he still forcefully explained. "Perhaps it's not because of money, but because he likes it? You have to know that Balor's krypton gold necklace is the work of a master. Even if he had money, he might not be able to buy it. What if this little fellow wants to use it for his letter? Even if he does not have a messenger now, he will definitely have one in the future! This is the deep-rooted bad habit of low-leveled civilizations! "
"But I don't think he will."
This time, before anyone else could speak, a heavenly voice had quietly entered. The gentle tone caused everyone's excited emotions to calm down significantly. Many people looked towards the source of the voice. It was the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, Celeste.
"It's actually her …"
"Previously, in the Pill Refinery District, the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince helped Wang Zhong. Now, she's here again …"
"What exactly is the relationship between these two people?" Whispers could be heard all around them, but in an instant, the voices of doubt towards Wang Zhong had almost disappeared.
Firstly, Gorst had given himself away. In the beginning, he was clearly opposing Balor, but now, not only was he speaking up for Balor, he even knew that Balor's necklace was the work of a master? It was obvious that they had colluded in advance. The majority of those who could come to the Heavenly Gates were intelligent people. There was a precondition for them to cause a commotion. That was, Balor had to be able to control the situation. Now that there was a problem, if they still followed the crowd, they would be lacking in intelligence.
Furthermore, what kind of identity did the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, Celeste, have?
If Jhonas's identity had given Wang Zhong some opportunities, then the appearance of the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, Celeste, had directly caused the entire balance to tilt towards him.
"You need evidence to speak!" When faced with Celeste, Balor obviously did not have much confidence. However, things had already reached this stage, and there had to be a result.
This time, however, no one spoke up to support him. The surroundings were quiet, and Celeste could be heard saying with a smile, "Of course there's evidence, but I don't think it's necessary. As long as his messenger appears, I believe everyone will immediately be able to determine that this is a farce."
Messenger? Did the Earthling have a messenger? However, he was just a messenger. Could he influence this case?
"Hey, the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, your words are really interesting." Gorst laughed coldly. "I'm curious. What kind of messenger can do this?"
Not only was Gorst curious, but everyone present was also curious. Even the Titan supervisor turned to look at Wang Zhong.
Everyone looked at Wang Zhong. Even the supervisor was slightly curious. What kind of messenger could make the daughter of the Heavenly Shell Crown Prince, Celeste, pay so much attention to him? An Earthling's messenger?
A summoning array appeared in Wang Zhong's hands. Everyone's pupils immediately contracted as only top-notch messengers would need this summoning array. How was this possible?
The runic array was extremely gorgeous and attracted everyone's attention. A ray of aqua blue light dazzled in the sky. The next second, they heard a delicate voice. "Master, Master, Nini missed you so much!"
With a leap, she pounced into Wang Zhong's arms like a swallow returning to the forest. She acted coquettishly and rolled on the ground. She was extremely lovey-dovey. There was no choice. The smell on her master's body was simply too delicious.
Meanwhile, most of the people in the surroundings were instantly dumbfounded. … Heavens! Earth!
Almost everyone felt as if they had been struck by lightning. Furthermore, it was a chain reaction.
After a long while, everyone finally reacted. An elemental spirit?! An elemental spirit messenger?!
This Earthling from a low-leveled civilization actually had an elemental spirit? Furthermore, looking at how close this elemental spirit was to him … One had to know that elemental spirits liked powerful and beautiful souls. Even though this did not mean that the elemental spirit was definitely a perfect good person, even if it was a bad person, it would be the epitome of darkness and a Boss with a perfect personality. As for stealing? That did not exist. This kind of dirty and despicable thing would definitely not happen to this kind of person.
The surroundings were instantly speechless. Balor's expression was ugly as well. Putting aside the fact that all of this was absurd and fake evidence, even if genuine evidence was placed in front of everyone, everyone would immediately think of 10,000 reasonable reasons for him to steal. There was no choice. Elemental spirits were far too picky about souls. How could they accuse a fellow with a perfect personality like an elemental spirit of stealing? Only an idiot would think of such a rotten idea.
The problem was that who the hell would know that an Earthling would have such a messenger? This was no less than the Heavenly River flowing backwards!
Nini was a high-level elemental spirit. Very quickly, she understood the situation from the discussions of the others and Jhonas's explanation. The little girl revealed a disdainful expression and looked at Balor and the large group of people behind him with disdain. "An ugly soul is ugly no matter what. Do you think you are qualified to cooperate with my master?"
The surroundings were completely silent. She glanced at the krypton gold necklace in Balor's hand. "This is such a tasteless thing. It stings my eyes even if I give it to you for free!"
The entire place was deathly silent. Balor's face alternated between red and white. If someone else had said this, they would have laughed it off and thought that it was said out of anger. However, to an elemental spirit who was extremely proud and picky … If she said that it was tasteless, then it was definitely tasteless. After all, he had flaunted this item for a long time.
Everyone present was dumbfounded by Nini's appearance. Other than Jhonas and Celeste, who knew of Nini's existence, everyone else, including the Titan supervisor, had an expression of disbelief. He felt that he had regarded Wang Zhong rather highly in the Combat Cultivation Hall, but he had never expected that he had still underestimated him.
The Titan supervisor had seen the world. Among the great figures who had elemental spirits, there were even some who had a close relationship with him. However, even for those great figures, the elemental spirit messengers they had were limited to treating each other with respect. Even though their relationship was very good and they had a friendship where they could trust each other with life and death, it seemed that the relationship between the host and the messenger was more like that. This was normal.
However, the Titan supervisor had never seen someone like Nini, who liked to stick together with her master all the time … Could it be that this little fellow had given that elemental spirit a bewitching potion? The Titan supervisor was dumbfounded.
For a period of time, the surroundings could not recover from their shock and were completely silent. Meanwhile, Nini looked at Celeste and gave her an admiring gaze. From this aspect, the spirits had inherited and strengthened certain advantages of females.
Emotions were more important than rationality. Celeste had worked in the Spirit Flower Garden for one or two months and served this and that without any complaints. The elemental spirits only treated her as a 'poop scooper'. They did not dislike her, but they definitely did not like her either.
However, in the previous incident outside the Pill Refinement District, it was this little girl who had helped her master and even gave her the pill formula. This time, it was she who had stood up to help her master again and again. Nini finally had a good impression of this woman, which was rare.
Celeste smiled. Frankly speaking, she did not expect things to go so smoothly. She had only made friends with Wang Zhong because she wanted to know what he had used to attract the elemental spirit's good impression. However, from the looks of it, she had already taken this step and directly achieved her goal. One had to know that elemental spirits usually did not remember favors, but once they did, they would definitely repay the favor. Nini often stayed in the Spirit Flower Garden. If she obtained her good impression, it would be of great help when she contracted an elemental spirit in the future.
After a period of silence, everyone finally regained their senses. At this moment, an uproar was about to erupt. At this moment, as long as the other party couldn't produce any conclusive and irrefutable evidence, Wang Zhong would be wrongly accused.
"This is a misunderstanding." Before the members of the Law Enforcement Association could make things difficult, Gorst had already rushed to speak. "It looks like we have wrongly accused Wang Zhong. Both of us are innocent … Perhaps some people with ill intentions are deliberately creating chaos and stirring up trouble. However, we were indeed impulsive …"
Balor also recovered from his shock. "That's right. I feel that we shouldn't give those treacherous people an opportunity to take advantage of us. Since we have found the item, I think we should just forget about this matter."
Just now, the situation was definitely disadvantageous to Wang Zhong. Now, the situation had instantly reversed. Many people felt that it was a pity that they had missed out on a big show. However, to be honest, being able to see an elemental spirit was considered big news.
"Let's go, let's go. There's no show to watch."
"That Earthling was able to obtain an elemental spirit? The heavens are really blind! "
"Is it because of the appearance of a celestialoid? Elemental spirits seem to like this type … "
Everyone felt that it was a pity and prepared to leave. They also felt that they had not seen enough. However, since Balor and Gorst did not plan to pursue this matter, this matter was definitely over. Who would really care about the thoughts of a level-4 civilization? However, as a level-4 civilization, that Earthling was able to possess an elemental spirit. It looked like this matter was destined to become a hot topic for a very long time in the future.
"Wait."
