Chapter 620: Liu Diqiu
Chapter 620: Liu Diqiu The girl in the baseball cap had introduced a groundbreaking theory, one that no one had seemed to consider before. Yet, Li Xiaofei’s intuition told him there was a high chance she was telling the truth.
He had pondered before why the Jiepeng and Yiggs forces on his Earth could use divine weapons to control star beasts. These were star beasts, a collective of monstrous entities comprising countless bizarre species.
Higher-grade star beasts possessed overwhelming strength and exceptional intelligence. Logically, such beings should not be easily manipulated like disposable cannon fodder. Yet, they were controlled by mere divine weapons.
Moreover, he recalled how his young lady had once mentioned that her Corpse Whisper technique could easily manipulate the corpses of star beasts and Yiggs warriors to turn them into combat-ready forces in the beginning. But later, for some unknown reason, the corpses of star beasts became immune to the technique. This phenomenon had left her utterly baffled.
Now, it seemed like Li Xiaofei had found an explanation. Could Eden have adjusted the gene lock within the star beasts, adding new programs that rendered them immune to Corpse Whisper’s manipulation?
"You’ve come to me because you want my help, right?" Li Xiaofei looked at the girl in the baseball cap. "Go on, what do you need to take control of the star beasts on Earth?"
The girl nodded and said, "There are three methods. Based on my re
The settlement had been constructed atop this plateau. The plateau was surrounded by sheer cliffs carved directly into the mountain, with deep, seemingly bottomless valleys at the bottom. Rivers were redirected to fill these valleys, creating a natural moat that turned the area into an inescapable fortress. In truth, the so-called Holy Light Settlement was nothing more than a massive prison.
Li Xiaofei and his group landed about two and a half kilometers outside Wutai Mountain. There, they successfully touched base with their arranged contact, the bearded driver.
"You?!" exclaimed the bearded driver. He paled as Li Xiaofei and his group landed around him. His knees nearly buckled from sheer terror.
This wasn’t just any group. This was a god killing team. Zhang Mingjun had been the one to reach out to him. The Grandpa Lakeside Camp was an old client, and Zhang Mingjun had told him that he needed help smuggling a few people into the Holy Light Settlement to handle some business. The payment offered was high, so the bearded driver had readily agreed.
But if he had known the ones he’d be helping sneak in were Li Xiaofei’s group, a team capable of slaying Governors, he wouldn’t have accepted the job even at gunpoint.
Helping these people infiltrate the settlement? Who knew what kind of catastrophe they’d unleash? And when that happened, there was no way he wouldn’t be implicated.
"Brother, you don’t look very happy to see me," Li Junjie stepped forward, cracking his knuckles.
"Not at all!" The bearded driver denied vehemently. "By the heavens, even if I didn’t want to see the eighteen-year-old bride my mother just helped me marry, I’d still be thrilled to see you heroes and masters!"
