Although the old Potter was living here, Laura did not have any intentions of avoiding him. Instead, she had come over quite a few times.
In the evening, Laura came over once again. Despite saying that she was just passing by, anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that she had definitely dressed herself up meticulously. She wore a floral dress, with a kawaii-style shawl draped over her shoulders. Ma Dong and the others, who were used to seeing Laura dressed up as a soldier, were almost blinded by her sudden change in style.
Her childish face and large breasts had basically brought out her unique characteristics to the extreme. There was a saying that "a woman that can't make a man think with his lower body isn't a good woman". Although it was just a joke, it was able to summarize the aesthetic values of many men.
Naturally, this wasn't a date. Just one of the soul-stirring dates they had a few days ago was more than enough for them to reminisce about for a long time. Be it Laura or Wang Zhong, they clearly weren't the kind of people who would talk about love all the time.
Laura had brought along the latest information regarding Vasilyevich, which she had meticulously collated over the past few days. She knew that Tianjing appeared to be relaxed on the surface, but in reality, everyone was using their own methods to adjust their mental state. Therefore, information on the surface would instead mislead them. At this stage of the CHF, they would really have to rely on pure strength.
However, Copperfield had had a direct confrontation with Vasilyevich. Coupled with Laura's status as one of the successors of one of the 10 great aristocratic families, the information that she had collated in detail was rather accurate.
Vasilyevich's strength was somewhat similar to Martial Ghost Divine Emperor's, with 3 cores forming the backbone of the entire squadron.
Naturally, Vladimir was the most important of them all.
"It's been a long time since someone with the Ice Dominator Innate Gift has appeared. As long as they don't die prematurely, it's almost certain that they'll advance to the Heavenly Soul Stage. There's even a high chance that they'll be able to break through the Life and Death Gate of the Heavenly Soul Stage. This is definitely a physique that can defeat tens of thousands of people. It's also destined to become the pillar of a great aristocratic family. One has to know that the lifespan of a Heavenly Soul Stage expert is much, much longer than that of an ordinary person. Once a Heavenly Soul Stage expert is born, they would at the very least be blessed and protected for several generations to come. This is also the reason why Vladimir is able to hold the highest authority in the northern regions. It's not just because he's the eldest son of Vasilyevich. From the looks of it, he's the calmest of the so-called 4 Heavenly Kings. However, in reality, Vladimir's influence over the Vasilyevich Family, as well as his status in the entire northern regions, might only be comparable to Carolyn. He's not someone like Gui Hao, who has a successor in the Gui Family. "
"However, in addition to worshiping the strong, the Northern Region also respects the brave. They prefer straightforward battles and clean victories. They won't use dirty methods, even if they have the ability to. Therefore, you guys shouldn't be affected by too many outside factors in this duel. You can rest assured about this. "said Laura with a smile.
"Thank you, and thank you old Potter for speaking up for justice." Wang Zhong had already received the news from Ma Dong that both Laura and old Potter were extremely loyal to him.
"Is that so? Empty words won't do!" replied Laura with a smile as she blinked her eyes.
"No problem. Remember this favour. In the future, as long as I'm able to do it, I'll definitely not decline!" Replied Wang Zhong. Ever since they had met, Laura and old Potter had really helped him a lot. In fact, they didn't need anything from him. However, the help they had given to Tianjing and him was extremely great.
"That's a promise!" Laura gladly accepted it. Naturally, she had agreed to it in a casual manner. Never did she imagine that this promise would save the Potter Family in the future.
"Let's talk about his Divinized Ice attribute special ability." said Wang Zhong with a faint smile. "You've crossed hands with him before, so give me some suggestions."
Laura gave an extremely serious thought before replying, "Soft!"
This was a reply that no one could have imagined. Being the only person who had come into direct contact with the Divinized Ice Wall, Laura had actually given such a one-word evaluation.
Soft? Wang Zhong sank into deep thought. Naturally, he understood the meaning behind Laura's words. A person's special ability was able to change their normal state. This meant that his control over his special ability was truly extraordinary.
"That's weird, isn't it? Although the ice wall looks so hard, it doesn't have the same texture as real ice. Other than the similarity in appearance, it gives me the feeling that it doesn't feel like ice, but like a spring, possessing an extremely strong elasticity and toughness." Laura shook her head. "Perhaps sharp weapons would be more effective than fists. It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to try it out."
"I've collected a few videos of Vladimir's fights in the dimensional space. You can take a look."
While speaking, Laura's Skylink had already started to flicker with images.
The camera cut extremely quickly, appearing somewhat blurry. It appeared to have been taken secretly, or due to the intense shaking during a high-intensity fight. Nevertheless, one could barely make out that it was a video of Vladimir fighting against a dimensional life form, with the latter's strength being roughly at the 5th rank. To a Casted Soul Stage, a 5th rank mutated beast was already an insurmountable existence, while a 5th rank dimensional life form was an existence that could suppress all of them. However, in the face of Vladimir's ice wall, even such a powerful life form would suffer a loss. Regardless of the powerful dimensional life form special abilities, or the tyrannical fists and claws, it was extremely difficult for them to deal any destructive damage to the ice wall. On the contrary, they were continuously beaten to death by the rebound attacks. Wang Zhong continued to watch the videos of Vladimir fighting against a few different dimensional life forms, with the results seemingly being the same.
Wang Zhong was extremely serious as he watched the videos. Being relaxed was just a form of attitude, not arrogance. If the Heavenly Soul Stage was the limit of human cultivation, the Ruler's special ability would be the pinnacle of all special abilities.
This point was vividly and vividly displayed in the videos. The deeper level of usage and more variations allowed the Ruler's special ability to maintain a realm higher than other special abilities, be it in terms of quality or quantity.
Without talking about using special abilities to contend against the dimensional life forms, Wang Zhong felt that even his Dimensional Wanderer might not be able to contend against them. The Dimensional Wanderer King wasn't omnipotent in absorbing energy. Furthermore, the Dimensional Wanderer was summoned by him, and was restricted by his own energy as well as the laws of this world. After all, this wasn't the hyperdimension.
Furthermore, through the videos of Vladimir fighting against those dimensional life forms, Wang Zhong was able to see even more of Vladimir's strengths that he hadn't displayed during the CHF.
For example, his tyrannical fleshly body and strength, as well as his combat experience and willpower that didn't lose out to Wang Zhong.
He was definitely an opponent that was more difficult to deal with than Gui Hao, and was even more formidable than Gui Xinying. Although Gui Xinying's talent was invincible, her talent wasn't enough to allow her to unleash her full potential. Furthermore, being born in the northern lands, he was even more blessed by the heavens. Within the Vasilyevich Family, there were quite a few Heavenly Soul Stage experts that possessed ice attribute special abilities. With regards to the usage and development of his ice attribute special ability, he would definitely be able to provide the best suggestions, allowing Vladimir to develop his ice attribute special ability selectively.
Having talent without guidance, and having guidance without talent was not enough. With the two combined together, one could well imagine the heights Vladimir would reach. It was just that his ice attribute special ability appeared slightly ordinary, coupled with the northern people's character that didn't like to act pretentiously … wrong, Noriba was an exception. This was the reason why his fame wasn't as resounding as Gui Hao and Carolyn.
However, the CHF had already proven that strength was the only way to pass through.
Vasilyevich would be the greatest test since the start of the CHF.
… …
"Is captain Wang Zhong around?"
Standing outside the Tianjing squadron's villa was an extremely unremarkable looking male. However, there was a dark red skull badge on his chest, indicating that he wasn't too welcomed by the rest of the squadron.
The Gui Family!
"Someone wants to invite captain Wang Zhong for a chat. 8pm, Moonlight Bar."
Upon receiving the news, the man turned around and left, leaving Ma Dong feeling extremely nervous.
The matter regarding Zhao Zimo was clearly related to the Gui Family. With the current relationship between Tianjing and the Gui Family, how could this be a good thing? Originally, he had wanted to treat it as a fart and let it go. However, Wang Zhong had actually wanted to go, and was even going there alone.
"There's no such thing as a good banquet, brother! I feel that it's best that you don't go. Even if they don't dare to come out in the open at this critical juncture, who knows exactly what kind of traps they've set up for you. "Ma Dong was extremely worried. Exactly what was wrong with this brother?
Wang Zhong gave a smile and replied, "Relax, I know what I'm doing."
On the one hand, even if the Gui Family were to make a move, they should know how to restrain themselves after experiencing so many things. Furthermore, they wouldn't be so brazen in finding him. On the other hand, the only person he had any interaction with in the Moonlight Bar was Gui Xinying.
Coincidentally, it was evening when Wang Zhong arrived, with 2 bodyguards dressed in black standing at the entrance of the bar. One of them was the person who had delivered the message today. Being a member of the Gui Family, there wasn't any hostility present on his face upon seeing Wang Zhong. In fact, there was even a hint of respect that was rarely seen from the Gui Family. Bowing slightly, he respectfully opened the door of the bar for Wang Zhong.
The lighting within the bar was slightly dim, with gentle music playing in the background. There weren't any waiters present at the bar counter. From the looks of it, the place had already been cleared out. There was only a petite and beautiful figure seated at the bar counter, pouring herself a drink.
"I knew you'd definitely come." Gui Xinying wasn't wearing her veil today. When she turned around, a faint smile was present on her face. From the looks of it, her mood wasn't that bad.
With a chuckle, Wang Zhong walked over to the bar counter and grabbed a glass of wine. "How can I be lacking in manners when a beauty invites me over. However, with our current situation, I'm really surprised."
Pouring a glass of wine for Wang Zhong, Gui Xinying said, "If I say that my thoughts are different from my brother's, would you believe me?"
"Thank you." Wang Zhong received the glass of wine. "Of course I'll believe you. You are you, and Gui Hao is Gui Hao."
In fact, from the moment he had come into contact with Gui Xinying to the battlefield, Wang Zhong was able to feel that if it was Gui Hao, even if Barran didn't die, he would still be bedridden. Furthermore, he could tell that although Gui Xinying respected Gui Hao very much, she wasn't affected or controlled by him.
Gulping it down in a single gulp, Wang Zhong smacked his lips, but was still unable to taste any difference.
Seeing how much trust Wang Zhong had in her, a sweet smile appeared on Gui Xinying's face. Truthfully speaking, even she wouldn't be able to do such a thing. Although it was impossible for her to harm Wang Zhong, what if she did?
Wang Zhong had a magnanimous air about him, causing people to have a good impression of him. In other words, he had his own principles and bottom line. Being friends with such a person, one wouldn't have to worry about being betrayed one day. This was something that Gui Hao was absolutely unable to do. Without talking about outsiders, even new sisters would have to guard against each other.
"This is a genuine highland knight. It's already very hard to find one nowadays. Drink a mouthful, followed by a mouthful of iced water. It's very flavorful." said Gui Xinying with a smile.
"It's about the same for me. What's more, you can't possibly treat me to drinks every single day. Therefore, it's best if you don't get the feeling from drinking it." replied Wang Zhong with a smile.
"I do want to treat you to drinks every single day, but you won't agree to it." replied Gui Xinying. Clearly, both parties understood that it was impossible for Wang Zhong to rely on the Gui Family.
It wasn't a sudden impulse to invite him out for a drink today. Frankly speaking, Gui Xinying had been feeling extremely vexed recently. Over the past few days, the outside world had been calm and tranquil, but it didn't belong to the Gui Family. The interior of the family had already been turned upside down. Clearly, it wasn't entirely due to the trivial matter with Zhao Zimo.
Gui Hao was already destined to be nailed to the pillar of shame of the Gui Family, with his status as the family's successor being stripped away. Not only did he lose to Wang Zhong in terms of martial strength, he had also suffered a crushing defeat in the arena, mentality and various other aspects. As for Gui Xinying, who had performed outstandingly in the CHF, she had already passed more than half of the votes cast by the elders to become the new first-in-line successor of the Gui Family, while Gui Hao had been demoted to second place.
This didn't mean that Gui Hao didn't have a chance. Great families paid particular attention to competition and balance. Only by doing so would they be able to sharpen the strongest leader. Although Gui Hao's talent was there for all to see, he was too immature. This setback was an extremely timely test for him.
Great figures had their own considerations. However, this was indeed an extremely huge test for the relationship between Gui Hao and Gui Xinying.
Gui Hao and Gui Xinying were indeed siblings. However, they had the same father but different mothers. Although the relationship between them wasn't bad, the two of them had their own maternal influences backing them. Over the past few days, they had already become like fire and water.
She didn't care about the position of successor. If possible, she would rather choose to slowly help Gui Hao and help her brother to stand up again. Furthermore, she believed that as long as she could gain experience, Gui Hao's talent was sufficient to become the leader of the Gui Family. However, the internal strife within the family wasn't something she could control. The clearer she saw it, the more vexed she felt. She wanted to talk to someone, but discovered that there was basically no one around her that she could talk to. At this moment, she more or less understood why Carolyn and Divian were able to become besties. They had a certain level of power, yet there wasn't any direct conflict of interest between them. Their personalities and standards were also compatible. People needed to communicate.
As for Gui Xinying, she was clearly her closest relative just a few days ago. However, in the blink of an eye, she had fallen into such a state. What a joke!
If authority was something like that, she didn't want to accept it. In the past, she had assumed that she didn't have any close friends. However, at this moment, she felt that she didn't even have close family members. Everyone was scheming against each other, with every step and every word spoken being filled with various kinds of traps and goals. Now that Gui Hao had treated her as an enemy, it was clear that he had yet to recover from his chaotic state of mind. The crushing defeat he had suffered this time was too huge of a blow to him. Not only did he need time, he also needed to clear his mind and understand the situation.
For some unknown reason, she thought of Wang Zhong. In her heart, she strongly felt that Wang Zhong was a person that she could talk to, even if it wasn't about those issues, and just casually say something, or not say anything at all.
