It was true that the work of the association was not easy to do, especially after encountering a troublesome character like Fang Xingjian. Charlie deeply felt the obstacles from all sides.
Putting aside the fact that the school and the local government were not cooperating, even his subordinates were becoming less and less useful.
Charlie suddenly walked toward the office where Fang Xingjian was. He sat down and stared at Fang Xingjian.
'There's definitely something wrong with this Fang Xingjian.
'His identity is unknown, but his talent is extraordinary. It's clear that his background is not ordinary.
'Someone from another country, a heretic, an orphan from a faction, or a demon from another dimension? '
The more Charlie investigated during this period of time, the more he felt that Fang Xingjian was hiding some secrets.
A person who had left no traces a year ago and whose origins could not be found had suddenly soared into the sky, doing what countless people could not do. What were the chances that there was nothing wrong with such a person?
For such a person to enter the Empire and even become a Knight, how could one not feel at ease?
Charlie's judgment was not wrong, but he was looking in the wrong direction.
He had always thought that Fang Xingjian might be someone from an enemy country, a descendant of a faction that had been wiped out, or a descendant of a fallen aristocrat. In any case, he should be a descendant of an influence that had a conflict with the Empire. Otherwise, how could he not reveal his identity?
He would never have guessed that Fang Xingjian was not someone from this world.
Therefore, no matter how he investigated, as long as Fang Xingjian did not say anything, he would not be able to find any clues.
Looking at Fang Xingjian, whose eyes were still shut and who did not say a word, a cold gleam flashed in Charlie's eyes.
Fang Xingjian had been cultivating his sword arts and Waves on his body for the past few days. Even though his body had not been able to replenish all sorts of nutrients and treasures in time, causing his vital energy and blood to be severely depleted, he was still cultivating.
Without ferocious beasts, medicinal cuisine, and treasures to replenish his energy, Fang Xingjian was still cultivating on his own. Of course, this would damage his body. This caused his muscles and blood vessels to work tiredly, unable to properly recuperate.
Therefore, although his swordsmanship was improving and his attributes were being tempered, the vital energy and blood in his body were being depleted. His muscles were getting more and more fatigued, and the tiniest fibers in his body were breaking, unable to recover.
Even though such self-cultivation caused damage to his body, he did not give up.
Because his time was short enough, he did not have any time to waste.
If he wanted to stop, he would have to lose consciousness or suffer from malnutrition for an even longer period of time. If he continued to cultivate, it would cause irreparable damage.
Of course, Charlie did not know that Fang Xingjian was able to cultivate his sword arts at an extremely fast speed despite being interrogated every day and not even having enough to eat. After cultivating his sword arts day and night for the past few days, he had almost reached the maximum level for all the Nurturing techniques, and that specialization of his was getting clearer and clearer.
Now, Fang Xingjian could clearly see that the first two words were "Supreme".
"Fang Xingjian? You're still not willing to say? "Charlie said calmly," After so many days, you should understand that no one can save you. "
He pretended to be calm and said, "In fact, I'm quite impressed by you. In just a year's time, you've managed to find so many helpers to help you.
"But you've seen the results. They've been very active these past few days, but it's useless. The Royal Knight Association supervises all the Knights in the entire Empire. If you carry on like this, it's only a matter of time before you're expelled from the ranks of Knights.
"Not only that, your martial techniques and Waves will be crippled as well.
"If you want to be saved, there's only one way.
That is to confess and tell them your secrets, seeking forgiveness from the association. "
Fang Xingjian smiled, "Confess my secrets and then become a prisoner, waiting for the First Prince to save me, and then sign the Devil's Note?" Since Fang Xingjian had come in alone today, he knew what Fang Xingjian was planning. After so many days of continuous pressure, interrogation, and tiresome bombardment, wasn't it all for this?
"Charlie, remember what you've done these past few days. You'll regret it."
Saying this, Fang Xingjian looked at Fang Xingjian as if he was looking at a dead man. The killing intent in his body gushed out toward Fang Xingjian without any restraints. Fang Xingjian then closed his eyes and did not say another word, wholeheartedly focusing on cultivating his sword arts.
"Regret? Let's see who will regret it. "
Charlie said coldly, "The First Prince has a brilliant reputation and is unparalleled in both literature and martial arts. It's only a matter of time before he attains the Divine level. In the future, he'll still be the ruler of the entire Empire. "Even if you manage to escape this time, what about the next time? What about the next time? What about after the First Prince becomes the King? Can you escape for your entire life?
"As long as you don't lower your head, then no matter how big the world is, there'll be no place for you to hide. "This time around, just me alone will be enough to destroy your reputation. And how many people does the First Prince have under him? How many people are stronger than me, with a higher status and a more terrifying identity? "
Fang Xingjian's eyes were still tightly shut as he continued to cultivate his sword arts in his mind. His cultivation seemed to have reached a critical juncture, and all his attention was focused on his sword arts.
Thereafter, no matter how Charlie tried to coerce or bribe him, Fang Xingjian showed no reaction. The number of Nurturing techniques at the maximum level increased, and his self-cultivation gradually entered a state of unprecedented focus. The entire world in his mind seemed to have started to change.
Charlie was completely unaware of this and only thought that Fang Xingjian was still passively resisting. Therefore, he slowly rolled up his sleeves and walked up to Fang Xingjian's back, pressing down on Fang Xingjian's body. It was Charlie's Reduced Force Field.
"You'd better not resist. My strength attribute is at 107 points. Even if it's the Reduced Force Field, it's not something you can shake."
Seeing that Fang Xingjian still showed no reaction and did not make a sound, Charlie let out a cold laugh and slowly pressed his hand down on Fang Xingjian's shoulder.
Fang Xingjian ignored him, or perhaps he had completely lost all sense of the outside world. He continued to cultivate his sword arts in his mind. There was only one more set of his Nurturing techniques before he reached the maximum level. The two words behind his speciality were getting clearer and clearer, and the third word had already become the word 'sword'.
An unprecedented feeling forced Fang Xingjian to pursue it unceasingly, causing him to devote all his attention to his self-cultivation.
Charlie's hand was like iron as he gradually increased the strength on Fang Xingjian's shoulder.
A cruel expression appeared on his face, "We have a lot of time. You can take your time to think."
If not for the fact that Fang Xingjian had broken through the speed of sound being too shocking, he would have long since given Fang Xingjian a lesson. However, he had been forced into a corner. Regardless of whether he succeeded or failed, this would be his last interrogation.
Although Fang Xingjian had broken through the sound barrier, that only meant that he had great talent. Breaking through the sound barrier might allow him to move about freely in the first transition, but to a Conferred Knight, there was still a huge difference.
Just as Charlie was slowly squeezing Fang Xingjian's shoulder, the sword technique practice in Fang Xingjian's mind grew increasingly faster.
Creak, creak, creak. His shoulder let out creaking sounds, as if it would break at the very next moment.
The proficiency of the last set of Nurturing techniques was increasing, and it was about to reach the maximum level.
Finally, a loud boom rang out in Fang Xingjian's mind. The last set of Nurturing techniques had reached the maximum level, and the new speciality appeared. Fang Xingjian only felt as if a myriad of swords had appeared in his mind, as if something was changing and taking form. All the sword techniques gathered together and then exploded fiercely. The next moment, he suddenly fainted.
Seeing Fang Xingjian's head tilt, Charlie's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately let go.
"Hey, Fang Xingjian, what's wrong?"
Seeing that there was no reaction, Charlie frowned and said, "Don't think that you'll be fine just because you've fainted."
He checked Fang Xingjian's breathing and heartbeat. Everything was normal. However, no matter how he pushed or pulled Fang Xingjian up, even if he poured water on Fang Xingjian's face, Fang Xingjian seemed to have fallen asleep.
Charlie started to panic, 'Could it be that this Fang Xingjian has reached his limit? He doesn't seem so weak. '
He tried to move Fang Xingjian onto the ground and then observed him. He realized that Fang Xingjian still had no reaction, as if he had really fallen asleep.
'What's going on?'
Just as he was feeling troubled, the door was kicked open with a bang. Charlie had wanted to scold someone, but when he saw who it was, he immediately shut his mouth. His originally pale face turned even paler.
Huang Lin was the first to rush in. Seeing that Fang Xingjian had fallen to the ground, he immediately pounced over to check on the situation.
Governor Devitt also walked in. When he saw that Fang Xingjian had fainted on the ground, he frowned.
The person who had come in with Devitt was an elderly man dressed in black robes. His attire was almost identical to Charlie's, but there was an additional layer of gold lining, making him appear even more distinguished.
"Sir, why … why are you here as well?" Charlie said, stuttering a little.
That old man glared at him fiercely, "Have you forgotten the association's rules? We'll forever remain neutral, and we won't take part in any internal conflicts within the Empire. "He threw a glance at Fang Xingjian and asked," What's going on? What did you do? "
In that instant, a feeling of great trouble descended from the heavens. Charlie's smile was extremely bitter, "I really didn't do anything. He just fainted."
However, Huang Lin discovered that Fang Xingjian could not wake up no matter what. He looked at Charlie with a murderous look and said, "Devitt, you promised me that my disciple would definitely be fine. What do you say now? We can't let this matter rest just like that. "
Devitt frowned as well, "Let the doctor come and take a look first." He looked at the elderly man next to him, "It seems that there are many problems within the association, and the quality of some of the agents is worrying. I'll definitely report this matter to His Majesty. "And if I were to find out that anything has happened to Fang Xingjian, hmph hmph …"
Although he did not say anything in the end, it was as if a chill had drifted through the entire space. Frost had unknowingly formed in the corner of the room.
A second transition level 29 Expert … Even if he only had a slight killing intent, it would be enough to make anyone tremble in fear.
The elderly man's countenance was grim, and he looked at Charlie with a gaze as if he wanted to devour him.
Charlie's countenance was extremely bitter. He opened his mouth and said bitterly, "I really haven't done anything!"
