Therefore, if Taira no Masakado said that he could give a satisfactory answer, he would definitely give a satisfactory answer.
Taira no Masakado called his subordinates to cancel the alarm and put Gao Peng and his familiars on the white list for now.
Gao Peng was taken away by professionals to a large house in Dongcheng District.
It was rare to see such a large house in Nishinokyo in the Nihon District.
Taira no Masakado asked Gao Peng to stay for two days and inform him as soon as the results were out.
Gao Peng stayed in Nishinokyo for the time being.
There weren't many people around Gao Peng's area, but judging from the greenery on the streets, it was a wealthy area.
The people living near Gao Peng seemed to have received some kind of notice and moved out of the area.
.....
Taira no Masakado stepped into a special department in the northern suburbs of Nishinokyo.
He used his pupils, facial features, and voice to identify and unlock his way to the deepest part of the department.
"I just want to know who attacked Gao Peng in the Huaxia District. We're in the middle of a great renaissance. Which bastard dares to mess with us at a time like this?! Find out the identities of the people in the flash drive! "Taira no Masakado threw the flash drive onto the table.
Crack!
The flash drive shattered into pieces.
Taira no Masakado was speechless.
The head of the secret department was speechless.
His assistant quickly picked up the pieces of the flash drive and found an intact chip. "Master Taira no Masakado, it's still usable."
Taira no Masakado's expression softened and he snorted.
"Master, a spatial rift has been discovered on Shikoku Island. The Cherry Sky Tree God was killed by a mysterious monster trainer that appeared from the rift." The message came from the communication device.
"The Cherry Sky Tree God is dead?" Taira no Masakado was shocked. He hadn't expected to hear such a shocking news.
He had noticed the tremors in the distance and thought it was the Cherry Sky Tree God showing off its power.
They all knew about the Cherry Sky Tree God. It was a divine tree that occupied almost the entire Shikoku Island.
They had even interacted with the Cherry Sky Tree God before. Although they didn't agree with some of its ideas, they didn't doubt its power.
It could be said that the Cherry Sky Tree God's strength wasn't unrivaled on Rainbow Island, but at the very least, no one could kill it.
Its size was a testament to its size.
"Send me the video from the drone and satellite." Taira no Masakado frowned.
The video was quickly sent over.
In the image, the mountains had collapsed, and hideous cracks spread across the mountains and the earth like scars.
The mountain peak said, the ground was a mess.
At the peak of the mountain, the temple was in ruins. A gray-robed monk knelt in front of the temple and kowtowed deeply. Blood stained the stone steps.
Inside the temple, the landscape and the stone forest had already been destroyed. In the center of the courtyard, the red-robed monk opened his arms wide, as if he wanted to embrace the sky. His eyes were empty as he looked above his head.
There was a metal spike piercing through his heart like a spear nailed to the ground.
Blood dripped from the spear.
What was even more shocking was that behind the temple, a giant tree as tall as a mountain had been snapped in half from the middle, as if it had been cut in half by some heavy weapon. The cut was extremely smooth, and the branches of the Cherry Sky Tree fell down from the mountain peak like a waterfall, forming a pink waterfall.
The Cherry Sky Tree God was dead.
The room was dead silent. The Cherry Sky Tree God had been in contact with them all this time. Its status on Shikoku Island had something to do with them. The way they saw it, the Cherry Sky Tree God was their external aid.
A group of people was setting up camp at the foot of the dead Cherry Sky Tree. Next to them was a Spatial Rift. The outermost ring of the Spatial Rift shone with a golden light.
Four familiars stood next to the Spatial Rift.
One had brown skin and was six meters tall. It carried a giant axe on its back and had a single eye on its head.
Its skin was golden, and it looked like a big furball.
It was a six-tusked elephant with a pure white body. The color of its tusks gradually changed from white to gold from top to bottom. There was a golden ring behind its neck that wrapped around its entire neck.
The last one was a black condor. Its eyes were like lightning, and a bolt of lightning shot out of its eyes. The drone closest to it was blown to smithereens.
Although the drone was destroyed, the footage was transmitted back.
Taira no Masakado suddenly said, "Zoom in on their photos."
The photos were zoomed in. There were three men and one woman. One of them had his back to the camera, so the camera couldn't see his face. Two of the other three were from the side. The one on the left was facing the camera directly. Taira no Masakado noticed that his facial features were Asian, but he had light green hair.
He wasn't the only one. The other three in the photo all had dark green hair.
"Search this face against the database. See if you can find out who this person is."
Ten minutes later, the result was that this person didn't exist.
Then, they searched for people with similar shoulder width and body proportions. After eliminating all the people who looked similar, they still couldn't find this person.
There were only three possibilities. The first was that he was an illegal resident. The second was that he had altered his facial features and body proportions. The last was that … he wasn't from this world.
Taira no Masakado was more inclined to the last possibility.
Because there was a new spatial rift next to the group.
"Contact Gao Peng. No matter what he wants, we have to do our best to satisfy him. The only one who can stop them now is Gao Peng." Taira no Masakado's expression changed.
Those people definitely didn't come with good intentions. Otherwise, they wouldn't have killed the Cherry Sky Tree God.
When Gao Peng received the news, he didn't panic. In fact, he was already mentally prepared.
When he met Kita Chong-yeon at the North Pole, he already knew that ancient tribes existed.
Back then, there had been a brilliant civilization, a civilization of familiars.
However, for some reason, they had left Earth Star.
Kita Chong-yeon had said that they would come back. They would all come back, one by one, when Earth Star gradually became suitable for survival.
But as the current owners of Earth Star, the modern people wouldn't give up their current position so easily. The integration of the two would definitely not be smooth sailing.
If the difference in power between the two sides wasn't too great, they could evolve peacefully. After all, there were still many unexplored areas on Earth Star. It was completely possible for both sides to merge.
But if the difference in power was too great … Thinking back to when Europe discovered the New World and Africa, it could very well happen tomorrow.
Gao Peng had already mentally prepared himself. He just hadn't expected this day to come so suddenly.
But this was the second time Gao Peng had encountered possible ancient humans. Gao Peng wanted to see how strong they were. It would be best if he could capture two of them alive.
"I want to see Taira no Masakado," Gao Peng said.
It didn't take long for him to meet Taira no Masakado. Gao Peng went straight to the point. "I have two requests. If you're willing to accept, then we can talk. If not, then I'll turn around and leave."
"Please speak." Taira no Masakado nodded. He couldn't refuse.
