The Freedom Federation.
The capital.
Su Cher was pacing back and forth in her room, anxiously waiting for something.
"Xue Er? What are you doing? "
A middle-aged woman came in and asked with concern.
"Ah, mother — — I'm fine, I'm just worried about grandpa" Su Cher hurriedly replied.
"Really?" mother Su stared at her.
"Yes" Su Cher lowered her head and answered.
"Very well" mother Su suddenly smiled: "Don't worry, your grandpa is currently in a meeting with the other Lords, the place they are at is the safest place on this planet — — - if you have nothing to do, take a look at your homework, don't panic like an ant on a hot pan. You are our Su family's most important heir, you need to stay calm"
"I understand, mother" Su Cher replied.
Mother Su nodded. The phone in her hand suddenly vibrated.
"What is it?" mother Su regained her dignity.
[Madam, please watch the news right now] a voice came from the phone.
Mother Su waved her hand to the void of space, summoning a screen in front of her.
The news anchor appeared a bit panicked and spoke:
[Following is a piece of news that we've just received]
[Under the close watch of the entire world, a new change has occurred to the ocean]
The camera turned.
A tsunami wall that was several thousand meters tall was rising from the ground — — -
[Dear viewers!]
[We might be witnessing a scene that has never been seen before in history]
[All of the ocean is rising to the sky, forming a layer of ocean that covers the entire world]
[This is not a tsunami!]
[Attention please, the ocean has completely covered the sky, this is happening right now]
[If possible, please leave your room or open your windows, you will see this miraculous scene]
[The world leaders are urgently discussing a countermeasure]
[The Federation has just announced a curfew, please pay attention …]
The sky outside was slowly darkening.
Madam Su took the phone out and looked up at the sky from the garden.
"My god …"
She muttered blankly.
Su Cher thought for a bit and was about to go out to take a look when she noticed her phone vibrating.
She picked up the communicator, looked at it, and immediately walked into the house.
She closed the door and took the call.
Gu Qing Shan's voice came from the phone:
"Xue Er, I have something to tell you"
"Qing Shan! I've been waiting for you. Have you reached the capital yet? "Su Cher asked anxiously.
"Don't worry about these minor details, just listen to what I'm about to say — — there will soon be news about my death" Gu Qing Shan said.
"What!" Su Cher exclaimed in a low voice.
"Don't panic, it was just a fake death that I used to get rid of some unnecessary trouble … I'll look for you after everything calms down," Gu Qing Shan said.
"Why did you fake your death? How could you do such a thing? "Su Cher asked in confusion.
"There's no time to say more. Remember that I'm not dead — your mother will open the door soon. When you hear that I'm dead, remember that I'm still alive."
Du … Du … Du …
The call ended.
Bang!
The door swung open.
Su Xue Er blankly looked at the door, only to see her mother walking in with a smile on her face, holding her hand: "Xue Er, there's something unfortunate that I feel like I have to tell you"
"What is it?" Su Cher asked.
Mother Su turned on the screen, changed the channel and said:
"Something unfortunate happened at our Chang Ning Steel Mech research department … someone was hit by a car and died"
Su Cher looked at the screen.
A dead person was lying on the ground, next to the car that caused the accident.
The host's voice came:
"It has been confirmed, the deceased is a researcher at Chang Ning Steel Mech research department, Gu Qing Shan"
"The driver of the car that caused the accident has been found to have a high concentration of alcohol in his blood"
"This accident …"
Reading this news, Su Cher's ears were ringing.
She suddenly remembered Gu Qing Shan's phone call just now and stopped herself from crying.
What happened?
Why did Gu Qing Shan fake his death?
Let's not talk about how he did it — — -
What exactly was he hiding from?
Countless thoughts flashed through Su Cher's mind, but she still couldn't find the right direction.
Mother Su took her hand, her face was full of regret as she whispered: "Speaking of which, he was your classmate … this child … although he came from a poor family, he's very motivated, I didn't think he would get into a traffic accident, what a pity …"
Su Cher was a bit surprised, slowly looked up to meet her mother's inquisitive gaze.
"Mother, why did you remind me to watch this news?" she asked.
"This is your classmate, I thought I should remind you" mother Su said.
"The news just now was a live broadcast, and you already knew about this" Su Cher said.
"I was notified by the people below, so I just wanted to tell you" mother Su said.
"When did you ever care about the Steel Mech research department? I remember there was once an accident in the workshop where 5 people died. When the people below notified you, you even threw a fit, saying that they interrupted your flower arrangement. From then on, this kind of thing would no longer involve you, only your assistant would take care of it "Su Cher explained.
"Because it was your classmate who died, I paid special attention to it" mother Su said.
Su Cher didn't say anything and just stared at her mother.
Mother Su suddenly became irritated and raised her voice: "I was being too nosy, I only wanted to let you know about this, I didn't think you'd suspect your own mother! What a waste of my kindness! "
Su Cher softly replied: "I didn't say anything, why do you think I'm suspecting you?"
Mother Su was speechless.
Su Cher's gaze lowered, when she looked up again, it was already empty.
She silently left the room and stood in the courtyard, looking up at the sky.
The sky — — -
Just like midnight.
A deep black ocean hung high in the sky, completely covering the entire world.
Everyone had turned on their various colored searchlights to illuminate the sky, creating a colorful and complicated scene in the middle of the ocean.
This scene was so fantastical and unreal that it caused everyone to burst into cheers.
All of a sudden.
Su Cher sensed something and abruptly turned towards a certain direction.
Boom!!!
A gigantic pillar of water shot up into the sky, quickly flying towards the depths of the ocean.
Su Cher's expression changed.
Just now, she clearly heard 7-8 screams of fear and despair coming from within the pillar of water.
There were people!
Someone was taken away by the pillar of water!
The pillar of water shot straight up into the sky, entered the deep black ocean, and turned into a dark red.
The dark red finally faded away, returning to the silent deep black.
— — -those people had completely become a part of the ocean.
Silence all around.
The ocean was completely silent, undulating.
— — it was like an unknown terrifying beast that had once again turned into a curtain of complete darkness, hovering above the ground.
Obviously, Su Cher wasn't the only one who saw this.
The searchlights went out in the blink of an eye.
The TV broadcast in the room was being broadcasted at an extremely high frequency. Outside the courtyard, screams and shouts could be heard from both near and far.
Panic began to spread.
…
Still the capital.
Gu Qing Shan was wearing a simple black hoodie, a pair of jeans, and a pair of sneakers.
He had a hood over his head, making him look like an ordinary young man — — -
Indeed a young man.
As soon as he returned to the pit of the dead, he lost all of his strength, his body also returned to his teenage self.
He was leaning on the railing of a tall building, looking up at the night sky.
[Your excellency, your feigned death tactic has succeeded, from now on, the 9 Lords will no longer bother you] Gu Suan's consciousness was communicating with him.
"You've worked hard" Gu Qing Shan replied.
[Your excellency, there's no need to go through so much trouble]
[I know, but there's something you might not have heard]
[Please go ahead]
Gu Qing Shan continued: [When you stand out, even ants will notice your existence, they might even form a swarm to try and bite you]
Gu Suan asked: "Anything else?"
[When you hide in the darkness, no entity will be able to bite you] Gu Qing Shan replied.
[That's why you wanted to feign death?] Gu Suan asked.
[This was an inspiration from Liao Xing — — right, this guy is probably still in outer space reproducing, we need to bring him back, he'll be a good helper] Gu Qing Shan smiled and said.
"Leave this matter to me," Gu Suan said.
[There's also Jang Young-ho, give me his address, I'll go find him] Gu Qing Shan said.
[How about I deal with him directly as well?] Gu Suan suggested.
[I'll go myself]
[Very well, his location has been displayed in your consciousness, please take a look]
Gu Qing Shan stopped for a few moments, then turned around and walked towards a certain direction.
As soon as he took a few steps, his presence abruptly rose.
Abundant spiritual light appeared, flashing under the night sky before quickly disappearing into nothingness.
