In a dark room in another small building by the road. The old man and the woman stood in front of the window and looked down through the gap in the curtains.
"It's the people from the special forces. Why are they here?" The old man with white hair and beard asked, "Who is that officer?"
"I've seen him at a banquet before. I think he's Colonel Su Lin from the special forces. It's said that he relied on his parents to gain a foothold in the army. What's he doing here instead of going to Honey View Hotel to play with women?" The pale woman was also confused. "Seems like he's Garon's friend. Is he trying to bribe people to get a fighter?"
"A young master actually didn't go out to eat and play, but suddenly brought people to the outskirts of the city to save people? Seems like their relationship isn't shallow. "The old man said softly.
"I know a little about this Su Lin. His parents spoil him a lot. Whatever he wants, they'll try their best to get it for him. Anyway, the family business has an elder brother supporting it. His elder brother also dotes on him a lot. He's the treasure of the Mobis family. It's just that he doesn't live up to expectations. He doesn't learn anything and only knows how to eat, drink, and play. " The woman said softly with a sarcastic tone, "I didn't expect the White Cloud Gate to hook up with this guy. They're lucky."
"It's good that the Celestial Circle Gate's power has been cut off a little. We've put in so much effort and they only want to contribute a little. That's too unfair." The old man smiled.
"But this Garon really hid it well. Su Lin has always been arrogant and spoiled. He doesn't allow anyone to go against him. He's very difficult to get along with. I didn't expect to be able to talk to this Garon. Su Lin is famous for being arrogant and unreasonable. " The woman looked down at Garon and Su Lin talking and laughing. Under the protection of the guards, they got into a black car and left. After that, the disciples of the White Cloud Gate, along with the disciples of the two sects, got into the car and left together.
"Let's go. The White Cloud Gate is safe for now. They've even protected the two sects. We can't do anything here. "The old man turned around and prepared to leave the window.
"Wait! What's that? "The woman suddenly exclaimed. Her gaze was fixed on a corpse that was carried out from behind a building. "That … that's Tenstar Ni? It can't be? "
"What?!" The old man quickly returned to the window and looked down. Tenstar Ni's body was being carried into a car by several soldiers.
In an instant, a chill ran down their spines. They looked at each other.
Tenstar Ni was dead!!
"Looks like we've all underestimated this White Cloud Gate, Garon …" The old man's deep voice rang out slowly. "Fortunately, we didn't go down. Otherwise, we might not even be able to come back alive."
"The strongest man of the Southern Twelve Gates … is indeed extraordinary! He already has the qualifications to be listed as a Grandmaster of Combat. "The pale woman mumbled as she took out a map from her bosom and gently unrolled it. "I'll mark it immediately!"
The white map was a magnified map of the nearby provinces. There were already a few red dots marked in different places. The pale woman bit her index finger and pressed a bloody dot on Galantia Province, where Huaishan City was located.
"I never thought that I would be able to witness the entire process of a Grandmaster of Combat breaking through the limits of the human body. This trip was not in vain. "The old man sighed with emotion.
*****
On the yellow-green plains, a light yellow driveway stretched out until the end could not be seen. It was like a thin yellow ribbon.
A black motorcade was driving smoothly on the driveway. The motorcade was made up of luxurious black cars. The bodies of the cars were embroidered with delicate silver patterns. Some of the corners were also decorated with gorgeous carvings.
On the hood of the second black sedan, there was a dark gold ornament that looked like a hook. It represented the number six.
The car was spacious. Two young men sat in the back seat. The man on the left had fiery red hair and a handsome face. He was wearing a brown field officer's uniform. He was playing with a lighter in his hand. He had the temperament of a frivolous playboy. The originally cold and serious military uniform seemed a little out of place on him.
The other man had short purplish black hair and dark red eyes. He was wearing a loose white shirt. His face was calm, and there was a sense of tranquility and peace. His eyebrows were a strange reddish-black color. The original black eyebrows had been replaced by two scars. On the contrary, it added a strange sense of mystery to his whole person.
These two people were Golden Hoop Number 6 and Garon, who were on their way back.
Garon looked out of the window at the yellow-green plains that were constantly passing by. The breeze blew the grass, creating layers of wave-like ripples. "What should I call you?" he suddenly asked.
Golden Hoop Number 6 closed the lighter with a snap. "Just call me Su Lin. To be honest, you and I are really … Hmm, what's the old saying in the East? It was fate! Yes, it's fate. Actually, I didn't take the initiative to help you last time. It just so happened that I encountered that incident, and I was angry, so I solved it directly. This time, when I was busy with something else, I suddenly heard about you and gave you a hand. Don't you think it's luck? "
"I thought you would say that you came here to help me." Garon shook his head and smiled. "You're honest."
"Honesty has always been my virtue." Golden Hoop Number 6, Su Lin, laughed. "White Cloud Gate is in big trouble this time, right? Do you need my help? "
"Big trouble indeed, but these are all small matters. The main problem is my senior sister …" Garon thought of this, and his face suddenly became gloomy. Senior sister had always been good to him. Although she had a strange temper, he didn't expect her to betray the sect.
"I did get some news about your senior sister. She went to Behemoth Gate. "Su Lin stopped smiling and said in a low voice. "Behemoth Gate … That's a troublesome organization … Although they have the same name as your Secret Technique, their strength is beyond anyone's imagination."
"Behemoth Gate?" Garon pondered. "Is it as strong as Celestial Circle Gate?"
"More or less." Su Lin frowned. "Celestial Circle Gate's background is too strong. Many of their disciples have authority in the Confederation Army and the upper echelons. As the strongest sect in the South, the Confederation even has a complete special army that is trained and led by them."
"A complete army …" Garon's heart tightened. He knew the meaning of an army. A complete army has at least tens of thousands of well-trained soldiers. This is not a weak force in the entire Confederation. Not to mention a special army.
Su Lin looked at him and continued, "Also, among the disciples of Celestial Circle Gate, many have joined the national security department. Among them, there are at least nine experts like Tenstar Ni."
Garon narrowed his eyes, not letting the shock in his heart show.
Su Lin didn't care about this and continued. "But at least you've reached a new level." He suddenly smiled. "The level of a Grandmaster of Combat is not something that just anyone can break through. Congratulations, Garon. "
"Grandmaster of Combat?" It was the first time Garon heard this term.
"Yes." Su Lin looked at the female soldier who was driving. "This is no longer a secret. Your master probably didn't want to tell you because he didn't want to distract you."
He paused, then continued, "The so-called Grandmaster of Combat is a martial artist who can train his body to the limit of the human body. Every person who can become a Grandmaster of Combat has well-honed skills, as well as a strong and powerful body. They represent the limits of all human beings. Every Grandmaster of Combat has their own strengths, just like how you are good at strength and defense. "
Garon was silent for a while. "Even if it's like what you said, I've reached the level of a Grandmaster of Combat. But against an expert like Tenstar Ni, I can only deal with one at most."
"That's because you haven't really stabilized. As for a Grandmaster of Combat, from what I know, any Grandmaster of Combat has an extremely strong body and vitality. Their recovery ability is amazing, and their strength is far beyond the limits of what a normal person can train. To put it simply, a Grandmaster of Combat is a top-level expert who truly surpasses the average martial artist. They represent the limits of human evolution. "Su Lin answered seriously. "If I'm not wrong, after you go back, you'll enter a period of explosive strength improvement."
Garon nodded slowly. What he didn't say was that he had already begun to improve. In the process of killing all the way here, he had already felt that his body was getting easier to control, and his skills were becoming more and more natural. Occasionally, there was even an instinctive surge of battle experience that allowed him to make a move that was a stroke of genius.
"So, you should know some experts at this level, right?" He asked softly.
"I do know. There are a total of 42 people who can be called Grandmasters of Combat in the Federation, and this is registered. There are probably more who aren't registered, but there should be an estimated 80 people. This is the strongest group of people in the entire Federation! Ordinary firearms don't pose any threat to them. Only powerful firearms can hurt them. "
"80 people … How many people are there in the Federation?" Garon didn't expect there to be so many experts.
"Last year's population count was 160 million people. In other words, including the older generation of Grandmasters of Combat, you guys are one in two million. But you don't have to worry. Among these 80 people, at least 50 of them are old people from the previous generation. Most of them are living in seclusion, and I don't know how many of them are still alive. Those who are still active are the Grandmasters of Combat who appeared in the last 50 years. In other words, there are only about 30 people active, and this is the total number of people who are active in the open and in the dark. "
Su Lin held a lighter and lit it intermittently. "Based on the information I have, there are 10 Grandmasters of Combat in the open, distributed in the thirteen provinces of the Federation. Celestial Circle Gate represents the Southern Alliance with 5 people, and the Northern Alliance with 5 people, so they are evenly matched. But I feel that this should have been discussed by both sides. It's too much of a coincidence that there are only 5 people. "
"5 people?" Garon muttered, "If that's the case, these 5 people should be from the Celestial Circle Gate and Crimson Sand Sword. Then what about Andrela?"
