Chapter 388 Clues and Transactions (I)

Baker continued:
“As I said, this [Sky Cage Hand] is a container. Its power that connects to the entire core spirit library is brought by the powerful personality relics inside it.”

“In this process, the [Sky Cage Hand] itself also played a huge role. It is an ancient spiritual tool with extremely exquisite craftsmanship and level.”

Yan Xiyu on the side concluded:
“In other words, this is a platinum ring inlaid with diamonds. Although the diamonds are gone, the platinum of the ring itself is still there.”

Jie Fei Motali held up her hands:
“Yes, even if it’s only platinum, the ring can still be used to propose marriage. Commander Yan’s metaphor is so romantic!”

Seeing Jiefei Motali staring at Ji Li with a burning look on her face and hinting at something with a smile, Yan Xiyu glanced at Ji Li speechlessly.

This guy…should I not use this metaphor?

Baker smiled:
“Miss Second is right. Even without its contents, [Sky Cage Hand] still has the effect of strengthening spiritual essence and has extremely strong compatibility.

If the user doesn’t mind, it can be used as a boxing glove or a claw hook for close combat. And…”

He paused:

“Before I came here, I heard from the Second Miss that I should be ‘serving’ an immortal’s relic of personality. If you are willing, it is not impossible to use that thing as a diamond to replace the diamond in this platinum ring…”

Originally, Baker was invited here because Ji Li asked Jie Fei Motali for a craftsman in order to make Lawrence’s personality relic into a psychic prop that meets his level.

It just so happened that I met Jiefei Motali during the Longshan incident, so it’s better to do it today than to wait for another day.

The other party’s intention was obviously to combine Lawrence’s personality relic with the Sora no Mitsukoshi to replace the previous contents:

“For an immortal-level relic of personality, both in terms of craftsmanship and material selection, it is not only extremely expensive, but also requires a strict time frame. Moreover, we need to find a matching craftsman to use the spiritual circuit, which takes at least half a year.”

“But the Soramuku can be used as the main material. In other words, it has the ability to carry personality relics. It is equivalent to using the personality relics in your hand as part of the material to repair the Soramuku.”

“The compatibility of the Sky Cage Hand is also enough to allow Awakeners who are not at the Immortal level to use the power of the Immortal level Personality Relic.”

Ji Li thought for a moment and said:
“Can it be done in one week?”

Baker wiped his beard and grinned:
“Three days at most, friendly price…”

Jie Fei Motali stepped on the instep of Baker’s foot and smiled:
“I heard that there will be an opera puppet show by world-famous artist Cable Campbell this week. Would the Director General be willing to go and watch it?”

Yan Xiyu’s expression froze and he looked at Ji Li, who shrugged.

“Yes, but I’m not interested in opera…”

“It’s ok!”

Jie Fei Motali flipped her hand and showed a densely packed ticket:

“I have already obtained the reservation tickets for all the major performances and high-end restaurants this week, whether it is a football field or a basketball court, or the Silla people’s favorite e-sports competition!”

Yan Xiyu’s eyes twitched:
…the wealthy people in Western Europe.

Ji Li and Yan Xiyu looked at each other:
“Then the time will be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow…”

“It’s okay! I’m always here for you!” Jiefei Motali said with a smile.

After the two people from the Blood Covenant Hermits left, Yan Xiyu and Ji Li were on their way to the detention center.

Yan Xiyu covered his face helplessly:
“When on earth did you offend another one?”

The shadow in Ji Li’s hand flickered, and he took out a piece of letter paper from the obelisk and handed it to the side:
“Here, the marriage certificate.”

“This thing…” Yan Xiyu’s eyelids twitched wildly:

“The Lord of Darkness wants to tie you up on the warship of Flash Street… No, it’s more like he covets the Special Management Bureau. After all, if he controls you, he controls the Aurora City Special Management Bureau… He’s overestimating his own abilities.”

Ji Li glanced at the cool girl:
“I’ve had this thing for a while. After I killed the Phantom Light Fairy, she should have given up the idea. But it seems that the noble lady from Western Europe is still unwilling to give up.”

Then the conversation changed:
“But you think so highly of me?”

Yan Xiyu stuffed the things into Ji Li’s hands expressionlessly:
“Why not?”

Boom!
Feeling the cold wall behind him, Yan Xiyu looked at the shadow cast by Ji Li on him and curled her lips:
“doing what?”

“If you want to praise me, shouldn’t you use more sincere actions?”

The cool girl glanced around with red eyes, but didn’t see anyone passing by.

Considering that the camera in this corridor was installed at the corner, she hooked her hands around Ji Li’s neck and kissed his lips.

The taste of tobacco and the tingling sensation of the electric current spread along Ji Li’s oral mucosa all the way to her entire body, and her tongue was burning hot.

In addition, the electric current seemed to be different from the one Cool Girl had used before, with an additional stimulation to the spiritual essence, which made Ji Li feel that it was somewhat similar to his black ice corrosion:

“Have you improved recently?”

“Type 2, um…”

Ji Li gently put his arms around her, and through her combat tights, he traced her waist and hips, which were as strong as a fighter plane. Her snow-white neck had a faint scent of shampoo.

Unlike the extremely soft playing of the piano, Yan Xiyu’s body is as strong as a cheetah.

“Come over to eat instant noodles tonight?”

“…You really have learned it.”

Yan Xiyu wiped the corners of her mouth with the back of her hand and tilted her head and high ponytail to make room for her neck.

But just as she was about to answer, she felt a little blocked in her chest. She looked down and saw that the black box hanging on Ji Li’s chest was pressing against her chest.

His face suddenly fell and he held him back with his hands:

“…You should go get a camera.”

After saying that, he snorted softly and walked towards the end of the corridor first.

And the voice of the black box appeared in Ji Li’s ears: “What does that mean?”

“It means having sex with you.” Ji Li shook his collar as usual.

“Can I? But your scent is too strong. I think I might pass out before I can finish it in one go…”

“Normal people can’t do it more than a few times.”

“Eh…are we going to do it now?”

Ji Li held his forehead with his hand: “Now I have something important to do…”

He recalled his experience in the reflection world just now. This thing had a faint smell of ink mixed with the fragrance of flower petals. It was really like a camera that had become a spirit.

However, apart from the fact that the other person’s tongue was not very peaceful and caused him some physiological rejection reaction, Black Box’s body was very soft. Perhaps like Jasmine, she was the type that would be very comfortable to hold while sleeping.

Moreover, Black Box’s new body has body temperature, so it should be good for warming the bed.

Ji Li and Yan Xiyu interrogated the two captured Westerners together. The two were indeed from the Mithril Lighthouse and were both members of the Keaton Federation.

In addition to observing the situation of the Aurora City Special Management Bureau, they also had the task of contacting Ji Li:

“Mr. Wildstar knows that there were some misunderstandings between you and Mithril Lighthouse before. I hope to reach a reconciliation with you and have brought what you need.”

There are more or less all kinds of spies and people active in Aurora City. These two people were caught because they were too close, so no one is to blame:

“So, Lawrence was abandoned by you, or…lost in the internal struggle, so he hid in Aurora City like a homeless person?”

Ji Li pondered:
“If I’m not mistaken, he was attacked by ‘you’ because of the problems at sea… Are you from ‘Wild Planet’?”

“Wild Star” is a code name, and it also belongs to the top management of Mithril Lighthouse.

One of them nodded and said:

“You are very perceptive.”

“Because during the incident on Saltwater Island, the Kaiton Federation Military Base near Saltwater Island was accidentally hit, and during that time, the responsibility was on Mr. Monsoon…

There is no point in criticizing him. Mr. Wildstar just wants him to return to Mithril Lighthouse to take on this responsibility.”

To translate it, it means that due to the internal struggle within Mithril Lighthouse, Monsoon’s defeat led to someone taking advantage of it.

Another senior executive took the opportunity to attack, forcing the seriously injured Ji Feng to run to Aurora City alone and hide.

“So no matter what Mr. Monsoon has done, it can only represent himself, not the intentions of Mithril Lighthouse.

And he has already paid the price for his recklessness and cleverness… and Mr. Wild Star wants to resolve the misunderstanding with you and establish a solid friendship between us…”

The man smiled sincerely and said:

“Do you understand what I mean?”

Ji Li narrowed his eyes under the visor:
“…I have no intention of becoming your enemy. But what do you need?”

The two looked at each other:
“There is a dispute between Babel and Monsoon. I believe you would like to catch the person behind him… Therefore, we bring you the news about ‘Suyan’.”

After Su Yan failed in his attempt to kill Ji Li with his own dead puppet in the other world, he took advantage of the injured Lawrence.

Although his goal was not achieved, the frequency remnants that could track his location were also destroyed in the battle between Ji Li and Lawrence, and now he is hiding again.

Ji Li’s intuition told him that a series of events in Aurora City, such as the Predator King and the Magic Mirror, were probably the work of this Su Yan.

And his goal in finding Su Yan is not only to pull this guy out and grind him to ashes, but also to get the follow-up clues of Hong Jing, which is related to his own memory problem.

“According to our intelligence, it is currently hiding in Linshi, Aurora City.”

The neighboring city of Aurora City is Dieshan City. Compared with Aurora City, which is a major economic region of Silla and has a high degree of internationalization, Dieshan City is much inferior.

In the annual ranking of urban construction and development in Silla, Aurora City ranked second in Silla, while Dieshan City was ranked outside the top ten.

The country of Silla itself is not big, and its wealth is highly concentrated in a small area. In Ji Li’s eyes, anyone outside the top ten would probably be an ancient human.

Yan Xiyu on the side raised the corresponding question:

“How do you, the Kaiton people, know so much about the situation in Silla?”

The man said:

“There were many misunderstandings and conflicts between Silla, Black Sun Mansion and us regarding the Sealing Cave incident on Saltwater Island, so our people have been investigating the incident of the Sealing Cave leak.”

“Following the clues, we found that the people in the Tower of Babel are using the leaks from the Sealed Cave to the coastal areas of Silla to achieve certain goals. It may be some kind of ritual, or they may have a deal with the evil master in the Sealed Cave.”

“Following up the investigation of the leak of the sealed cave, our agents in Dieshan City were originally cooperating with the local special management bureau to deal with the incident of the Lightless One, but they accidentally discovered the traces left by Su Yan.”

“And you have completely solved the Lightless Person incident in Aurora City, and by chance, you handled Mr. Monsoon’s problem for Mr. Wilderness Star. So, in addition to expressing our sincerity, we hope to continue to cooperate with you for a long time.”

It was not new that the Keaton agents were active in Silla. Yan Xiyu just frowned slightly and didn’t say much.

After exchanging a glance with Ji Li, he nodded and turned away.

Contact the Special Management Bureau of Dieshan City to check the intelligence.

In fact, this cannot verify whether the intelligence is accurate, but it can investigate the corresponding events to get a general conclusion on whether the intelligence is true.

Whether it is accurate or not, they will make their own judgment at that time.

Ji Li changed the subject:
“How many agents do you have operating within the city of Aurora?”

The man who was originally talking calmly turned embarrassed:
“This……”
