Divine Beast Lord: 10000 Amplifier From The Start - Chapter 92

92 Clothes Make the Man

For the next two days and one night, other than eating and sleeping, Wang Xiao almost did not leave the territory.

Other than helping Zhou Xiruo modify the 11 city-states together, what was more important was to learn the etiquette at the banquet of the large families.

Although Wang Xiao felt that there was no need, he could not resist Zhou Xiruo’s coaxing.

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. The next night, before the Fang family’s banquet began, Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo left the territory together and headed to the trading market.

!!
As soon as he entered the trading market, Wang Xiao saw Ma Yunle walking over.

After both sides greeted each other, Ma Yunle took out two white resource balls and handed them to Zhou Xiruo. “The things you want are all inside.”

Wang Xiao was stunned when he saw this. “You’ve already chosen a gift? Then why did you ask me to come?”

“This isn’t a gift. It’s the clothes I picked out for you.”

As Zhou Xiruo spoke, she looked at the items in the resource ball and tugged at Wang Xiao’s academy uniform. “We’re going to the banquet today. How can you dress like this?”

“What’s wrong with me looking like this? Isn’t it quite good?”

Wang Xiao looked at his academy uniform with a puzzled expression. Although it was already a little tattered, it had been washed very clean and was in line with his identity.

“Just… Aiya, if I tell you to change, change!”

Zhou Xiruo did not seem to know how to explain. She stuffed the resource ball into Wang Xiao’s hand and persuaded him while also pushing him into the changing room.

When Ma Yunle saw this scene, he subconsciously revealed a smile. It was unknown what he was thinking.

…

In the military building.

Chen Jinrong sat alone in the central control room. There were more than ten screens in front of him, and in the center of the screens was an ice sculpture with a red light flashing on its forehead.

A moment later, someone knocked on the door of the central control room. Then, Qi Lianjun pushed the door open and walked in.

“Sir.”

Qi Lianjun came close and saluted. “The arrangements outside have already been set up. We can start the operation at any time.”

Chen Jinrong pondered for a moment. “Have you chosen the retreat route? Andu is from the Crimson Star royal family and has very rich combat experience. It won’t be easy to deceive him.”

“The staff department thought so too. That’s why we chose a relatively remote route.”

As Qi Lianjun spoke, he brought up the map of Kaiyang City on the screen. As his finger slid across it, he began to explain, “After Andu leaves, we will outflank him from three sides and force him to escape to the west.”

“After that, under the guidance of our people, Andu will head to the trading market from this route and enter the Blue Planet’s secret realm. He will forcefully open the dimensional passageway and return to Crimson Star. Of course, this dimensional passageway doesn’t exist.”

“During this period, our people will try their best to obtain as much information as possible about Crimson Star. Therefore, the staff department hopes that our colleagues in the combat department can speed up the pursuit. On one hand, it will create tension for Andu, and on the other hand, it will buy time for our people.”

After Chen Jinrong heard this, he stared at a certain point on the screen for a moment before frowning slightly and saying, “This route will pass through the wealthy district. Will it cause a riot?”

A hint of hesitation flashed across Qi Lianjun’s face. “There’s such a risk, but this is the shortest route from the building to the trading market. Taking a detour might alert Andu.”

“…”

After a long silence, Chen Jinrong finally nodded. “Let’s carry it out according to this plan. Have you chosen the person to carry out the plan?”

“Yeah.”

Qi Lianjun nodded. “Considering that hiding by Andu’s side requires experience and courage, as well as sufficient adaptability, I recommend myself. I will carry out this plan!”

With that said, Qi Lianjun took out a crystal mask as thin as a cicada’s wing and covered his face without hesitation.

In an instant, Qi Lianjun’s figure became much taller. His bronze skin turned slightly red, and a red dot quickly appeared between his eyebrows.

Seeing Qi Lianjun, who had transformed into a Crimson Star person, Chen Jinrong clearly revealed a worried expression. “Is there no one else?”

“Everything is for the Blue Planet!”

Qi Lianjun saluted and smiled stiffly. “Sir, actually, you don’t have to worry. We discovered that apart from changing the appearance, this mask can also increase the strength of the wearer, so I’m still very safe.”

“After all, it’s an orange-quality item. It’s not strange for its functions to be stronger.”

As Chen Jinrong spoke, he stood up and raised his hand to pat Qi Lianjun’s shoulder heavily. “Be careful!”

“Yes!”

Qi Lianjun saluted again and turned to leave. However, he suddenly thought of something and stopped. “Sir, there’s something I don’t know if I should ask.”

“Tell me about it.”

“Wang Xiao.”

Qi Lianjun said softly with a solemn expression, “First, he had all kinds of high-level mutated beasts, and now, he obtained an orange-quality item… This young man’s luck seems to be a little abnormally good?”

Chen Jinrong had a nonchalant expression. “What are you trying to say?”

Qi Lianjun frowned slightly. “I think we should focus on observing him?”

“Not for the time being.”

Chen Jinrong waved his hand and said in a lecturing tone, “Put your energy on the mission first. We’ll talk about the future later.”

“…Yes.”

Qi Lianjun agreed and turned to leave.

Chen Jinrong turned to look at the ice sculpture on the screen again, but his expression was clearly a little distracted. “Abnormally lucky…”

…

At the trading market.

Wang Xiao came out of the changing room and had already changed into a black windbreaker suit. The tailoring was just right, completely revealing his tall figure. The long and narrow collar and cuffs were embroidered with dark silver patterns, adding to his mysterious aura.

“Damn! He’s so handsome!”

Ma Yunle immediately exclaimed when he saw Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao’s facial features were of the delicate type, but after wearing this set of clothes, he could not help but lose some of the immaturity of a youth. Instead, he became more fierce, like a sharp sword hidden in a sheath. His entire body exuded a hidden aura.

“Am I?”

Wang Xiao scratched his head in embarrassment and pointed at the dark silver patterns. He asked softly, “Aren’t these things too exaggerated?”

Ma Yunle shook his head and was about to speak when his eyes suddenly widened. His mouth slowly formed an “O”, as if he had seen something extremely unbelievable!

When Wang Xiao saw Ma Yunle’s strange appearance, he subconsciously followed his gaze and turned around. Immediately after, a stunned expression appeared on his face.

Zhou Xiruo’s exquisite facial features were covered in light makeup. The black off-shoulder gown perfectly displayed her curves, and at the same time, it made her skin look even fairer and more tender.

Her long waterfall-like hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her exquisite collarbone was faintly discernible in the hair. However, she did not look sloppy at all. Instead, she looked elegant in her languidness.

When Zhou Xiruo, who was walking over leisurely, saw Wang Xiao and Ma Yunle staring straight at her, her exquisite face immediately became a little uncomfortable. “Why are you looking at me like that? Isn’t this outfit good?”
