Worldwide Simulation Era - Chapter 696
696 Looking For His Lost Friends
As the most powerful man in Ocean City, he was only one step away from the Celestial Realm.
But when did the young man and the group behind him arrive? He had not noticed them at all.
Moreover, even though he had already seen the group, he still could not sense their aura fluctuations.
Ever since he was born, he had only encountered such a strange situation with an expert who could crush him with absolute strength.
!!
Could this group in front of him be all powerhouses above the Celestial Realm?
Just the thought of it made him shiver.
The other Immortal Realm Practitioners also quickly reacted, taking out their weapons and putting on a fighting posture with solemn expressions.
Lin Qiye was speechless.
Just now, he was attacked as soon as he showed up with the man in the military uniform.
If he hadn’t dodged quickly, he might have been fine, but the dozen people behind him would probably not even have their ashes left.
After dodging the attack, he was going to ask the higher-ups of Ocean City for an explanation. However, as soon as he saw them, those people all pulled out their weapons as if they had seen a ghost.
To be fair, they were all humans. Even if there was enmity between them, they should at least have a chance to speak, right?
The man in the military uniform and the others behind Lin Qiye were shocked when they saw that the group of higher-ups were about to make a move. He quickly stepped forward and said, “Everyone, calm down! We’re all on the same side!”
He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
He wasn’t worried Lin Qiye would be in any danger. Instead, he was concerned Lin Qiye would annihilate the people from Ocean City if they angered him.
After all, Lin Qiye had killed millions of demons in one move at the station!
Furthermore, even with Ocean City’s most powerful defense system, Lin Qiye could still bring them to the gathering point of Ocean City’s core members unscathed.
The high-level members were all on their guard when they saw the man in the military uniform.
However, someone quickly recognized his identity and could not help but exclaim in surprise, “Old Zhou?”
“Captain Zhou!”
A few men in the same military uniform walked out from the crowd.
The man called Captain Zhou could not help but laugh when he saw them.
“Old Fang, Old Liu!”
“Hahaha! We thought you were dead outside!”
Seeing that they were all acquaintances, the atmosphere eased up.
Captain Zhou still wanted to say something to his old friends, but he quickly reacted. He looked at everyone solemnly and said, “Everyone, let me make the introductions. This is…”
At this point, Captain Zhou could not help but look at Lin Qiye awkwardly.
After being saved, Lin Qiye asked them questions and brought them to Ocean City.
They were confused throughout the entire process and did not have the time to ask about Lin Qiye’s identity.
Lin Qiye saw everyone staring at him, but he didn’t have a good impression of the group that attacked him without saying a word. So, he coldly said his name.
“Lin Qiye.”
Captain Zhou didn’t react immediately when he heard it. Instead, he nodded repeatedly and said, “It’s all thanks to our benefactor this time. Otherwise, we would have all died at relay station No. 185!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Captain Zhou saw everyone in the room looking at the young man behind him in shock.
Similarly, the other people who had come with Lin Qiye were also in disbelief.
“Lin Qiye? You’re Lin Qiye?”
A Practitioner in the Earth Immortal Realm stared at Lin Qiye. He was curious and puzzled.
Recently, Lin Qiye’s name spread throughout the entire southern warzone.
He had fought against dozens of demons in the Immortal Realm and even caused the demons in the Celestial Realm to attack him. In the end, they died together.
Even in the southern warzone, such bravery was definitely something to be proud of.
However…
Didn’t the rumors say he had already died together with the demons that besieged Star City?
Why was Lin Qiye in Ocean City now? Moreover, his strength was so terrifying that he could not see through his cultivation realm.
Could it be that he had seen a ghost?
Captain Zhou was in disbelief when he recalled the strength Lin Qiye had displayed earlier.
“Benefactor, are you really the legendary genius, Lin Qiye?”
Lin Qiye had a good impression of the captain, who refused to abandon his men even in despair. He smiled at him and said, “What? Could it be that someone is impersonating me?”
Seeing that Lin Qiye had confirmed his identity, Captain Zhou’s mouth fell open in shock as he shook his head repeatedly.
“No, no. I just didn’t expect you to be the legend, benefactor.”
According to the rumors, Lin Qiye could fight against dozens of demons in the Immortal Realm alone. In the end, a demon in the Celestial Realm appeared and led the others to fight Lin Qiye.
This was the result of their perishing together.
When they first heard this rumor, most people treated it as a story.
After all, the authenticity of the rumors often needed to be tested.
Many legends were magnified infinitely. Killing a mutated earthworm could be exaggerated into killing a mutated dragon!
However, the situation was different.
After seeing Lin Qiye with their own eyes, most believed the rumor.
The only rumor he didn’t believe was that Lin Qiye had perished together with the demons.
Some rational people had already retrieved Lin Qiye’s information while everyone was talking.
