Chapter 126: A Host That Is Still Confident

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fang Ning immediately exclaimed, “Such powerful beasts exist? Then even if your wounds are all healed, I still won’t let you go over and risk your life. This space that has suddenly appeared is extremely different from the one that Elite Nightmare Demon constructed.

“You could sense that the alternate space from last time wasn’t quite so dangerous. As for this place however, you’ll have to wait until I’ve thoroughly scoped it out.”

The System replied, “Then hurry up and do so.”

The System didn’t dare speak otherwise; this was its first time seeing so many monsters, so it wasn’t in a rush to farm them all.

Fang Ning didn’t immediately start on his task either, still buried in his thoughts.

It seemed like this space had been existing for quite a while, so it must be extremely confidential, otherwise it wouldn’t be possible for its presence to slip past their detection. The Truth Department’s vitality ingredients and herbs must have originated from here; it was no wonder they worked so well, to the extent that it could even make blood-enriching miracle food.

Fang Ning was still engrossed in his thoughts, “That Long Fan must constantly come into this space to investigate things; it must have died a few times here too. The possibility of it being a coincidence is just too low. I just became allies with him and he immediately died, triggering “Thousand-mile Assistance.”

“It’s probably because Qiao Zijiang achieved great success and was allowed to come here for special training. After all, this space is obviously overflowing with vitality, much more so than our world.”

“This place is definitely one of the Truth Department’s strongest cards. The fact that it was hidden and went undetected for so long just further proves it.”

Fang Ning was quite impressed at the Truth Department’s ability to keep things under wraps; it would seem that even the Bai family’s Elder Ancestor didn’t know about this place. Could it be that only the most trusted core people of the Truth Department could enter and leave as they pleased? Otherwise you could only enter and never leave?

However, Fang Ning had never expected that one of the System’s Legendary Skills would actually be able to reveal the System Map for this place, thus allowing them to see the Truth Department’s cards pregame.

However, how was it possible for Long Fan, a temporary worker with questionable loyalty, able to enter and leave the place? Weren’t they afraid he would leak their secrets?

When Fang Ning realized this, he remembered that there was somebody that could find out for them, and he didn’t have to worry that people would find out that he already knew about this mysterious space.

Fang Ning then turned and proceeded to the System Jail area.

…

Anderson was currently reading the printed books as he gave comments on them individually.

“Not bad, this plot was quite creative.”

“Hmm, this trap couldn’t have been avoided no matter what, but I had already predicted that it would happen…”

“Hmm, it seems that the male protagonist is going to die in the end, I don’t have to continue reading this then.”

Fang Ning rolled his eyes upon hearing Anderson’s mumblings, ‘It seems that a trick like this won’t work on geniuses since they’ll only fall for it once. Locking up idiots would be much better, someone like Feng Gensheng would be perfect.’

Fang Ning coughed once.

Anderson quipped, “Eh, why if it isn’t Mr Jailer again. Thank you for your books, I usually wouldn’t read these things. Now that I have however, it makes me angry but also keeps me wanting to know more.”

Fang Ning was speechless, “No need to thank me. Let me ask you, such a high position as the Vice President of the Global Power Balance Association, as well as being the main person-in-charge of technology research warrants you knowing quite a few secrets right?”

Anderson answered, “But of course. Now that I’ve gone and landed myself into your hands, I was hoping to stay alive by using these secrets.”

Fang Ning asked, “Then do you know of an alternate space where an entire food chain is sustained in, complete with beasts, a great forest and rivers?”

Anderson answered nonchalantly, “Oh, that’s the Land of Heritage, it is the most fundamental core of a big organization. You True Dragons are lone wolves, so I reckon you’ve never had the opportunity to discover the secret entrances to the Land of Heritage from the real world. Only organizations with enough manpower scattered around various regions can compile all the intel they would get to analyze the entrance to the Land of Heritage. We’ve always wanted to locate an entrance to the Land of Heritage, but we’ve never found it.”

Hearing this, Fang Ning thought of the Elite Nightmare Demon; Anderson was right.

If it rAn into the System’s muzzle, who would have thought that it would have an alternate realm? An alternate realm that people could stay in for half a year at that, too? Sadly, it wasn’t developed properly so it could only be used as a trap; much different from the one they had seen.

Fang Ning continued with another question, “Since it’s so fundamental, it must be kept strictly confidential right? But the number of people in a big organization means that someone will definitely leak its existence, so why hasn’t it popped up on any radars yet?”

Anderson laughed, “Doing so isn’t difficult; I already know of at least two technologies that can do this. One is Spiritual Sense Injunction, the other is the Soul Labyrinth. The former will halt anyone that is about to speak of something forbidden. The latter is much stronger and mysterious as it can muddle a person’s memories. It can either make a memory disappear or plant a new one.

“Usually one or the other is used; Soul Labyrinth is used on members of the organization with lower authority while Spiritual Sense Injunction is used on members of the organization with higher authority. Of course, there are times where both methods have to be used on one person too.”

Fang Ning finally realized why Qiao Zishan and the rest never once mentioned the Land of Heritage.

These big organizations were all hiding great secrets; but Vigilante A’s sudden appearance half a year ago threw the power balance off as he climbed to the top of the martial power hierarchy using the System’s unique advantages. However, the lack of attention paid to other aspects still made Vigilante A significantly weaker overall.

He then thought of Zheng Dao’s previous situation; although Zheng Dao had never messaged him on QQ, he still insisted that he had obtained permission from the Venerable Dragon God, which allowed him to cultivate in isolation peacefully. He must have acted that way from the Soul Labyrinth.

Fang Ning was suddenly frustrated, “Eh, then why can you speak of the Land of Heritage so easily? Could it be that a higher-up like you doesn’t need to be inhibited?”

Anderson smiled, “Have you forgotten just how strong my spiritual sense is? I was the person that had both methods used on me; I was not allowed to mention the Land of Heritage to anyone at all. However, I’ve already cracked the code of both methods; be it Spiritual Sense Injunction or the Soul Labyrinth, I’ve understood either completely.”

Fang Ning ignored the boastful Boss, since he had already obtained all the information he needed.

He probably didn’t know about the things in the Land of Heritage since the Power Balance Association didn’t have one of their own.

It seemed that these places were no trivial matter and it’s not like Fang Ning could go around asking about it either, since it could just mean crossing the Truth Department’s current bottom line. Before they announced this to the public, whoever that crossed this bottom line would definitely suffer from unforeseen outcomes.

Fang Ning left the System Jail area and shared all he knew to the System.

He spoke in a serious tone, “You can go to that place only once you feel like you’re far stronger than all the wild beasts there. There’ll be chances in the future since it’s definitely not the first time Long Fan died there; he just doesn’t know it. You should not go crazy now or you’ll be sending two souls to their deaths.”

The System murmured, “I won’t go then.”

“Hmm, that’s good then. I’ve finally understood why you said ‘Thousand-mile Assistance’ isn’t inferior to the Morality Module; just based on this ability to discover mysterious places earlier is more than enough to prove your point.”

“But of course, even reading the description of the skill will tell you just how powerful it is. As long as you expend enough Morality, even crossing realms is possible.”

…

At this time, the Qiao siblings were meditating in a small plaza in the Truth Department’s Land of Heritage.

Qiao Zijiang suddenly opened her eyes and turned to look at her elder brother, who was concentrating on meditation completely, before she silently left the small plaza.

She closed her eyes in thought before she opened them.

“Once again, there were no results. There’s no other choice; every time Long Fan enters here he always thinks it’s his first time here, so there’s no way for him to properly accumulate experience, which causes him to repeat his mistakes. This investigation method has terribly low efficiency, but sadly he’s too sneaky to be trusted, so this is the only way to go about it.”

After she calmed herself down, Qiao Zijiang returned to the small plaza to resume her meditation.

Cultivating in a place overflowing with vitality, they wouldn’t need more than a few years to catch up to the current Vigilante A; when that happens, there was no need for her to stand aside during battles anymore. All her superiors were trying their best to stabilize things in the outside world just so they could fight for time for the core members to practice cultivation.

Qiao Zijiang closed her eyes and calmed herself as she cleared her mind of all thoughts before she immersed herself in cultivation once again.

…

Fang Ning buried all he knew of the Truth Department’s Land of Heritage deep in the recesses of his mind; it wasn’t a place the System should go yet.

However, this still expanded his worldview greatly as he had witnessed stronger and more powerful presences, which taught he more than he ever thought.

Fang Ning wasn’t afraid at all; in the beginning, a System Notification only showed the System fighting a Snake Demon Boss to a draw, but now it could already defeat the most powerful being in this world, Anderson.

The Truth Department had the Land of Heritage helping them boost their martial power behind the scenes and other big organizations had similar places too; but Sir System had the monsters of the entire world to farm, so Fang Ning had confidence that Sir System wasn’t weaker than any human.

Besides, it would be Sir System doing all the handiwork, he just had to handle the thinking part of things. He wouldn’t be burdened much so naturally he would have confidence…

Three days later, Zheng Dao was finally done with buying herbs in Ji City. He temporarily stored them in one of the Truth Department’s important warehouses and had spent a total of $230 million.

He also mentioned that the Truth Department had paid the mission rewards they owed, which was a cash prize of $500 million, an upgrade to Grade 3 associate, and a nomination as one of the candidates for Best Associate. Access to the internal market was also upgraded to include clearance to intel.

Fang Ning had praised him and had immediately called for Xue “The Flight” Feng to send him and the System to where Zheng Dao was.

Vigilante A followed Zheng Dao to the warehouse and had first thought that the herbs filled the entire warehouse. However, it was empty when they entered.

That was until Zheng Dao and the warehouse manager led them to the corner where their herbs were located. When they neared the place, a strong herbal fragrance wafted into noses before a medium-sized carrying case came into view.

$230 million worth of herbs were all in that suitcase.

The herbal fragrance had emitted from within the carrying case and a long list of herb names were pasted on the outside of the case too. There were names like “Thousand Leaf Lingzhi Mushroom” and “Eternity Ginseng”, which were obviously rare herbs.

The warehouse manager then started to introduce the herbs, “These herbs were nurtured meticulously by the Truth Department for years; we purposely planted them in places with a high concentration of vitality and it isn’t currently available for purchase to general civil organizations. Only associates of a certain grade have limited access. Although it’s expensive, they’re all of the highest quality and are definitely worth their price.”

Fang Ning’s mind drifted to the Land of Heritage and thought, ‘I see, you lot directly monopolized the supply of the highest-end; when the vitality produces businesses finally start picking up, it’s obvious who earns the most.’

‘It was no wonder they kept promoting the planting methods of vitality crops to the aristocrats of the Aristocratic Cultivation Club; they wanted to build a primary market so that there would be a constant supply of basic-grade vitality materials. Once the prices had stabilized and there was a constant supply of consumers, they would then release the high-end products. If they didn’t do this, there would be a lack of consumers, which meant there would be fewer people comparing their products. Even gold wouldn’t be able to sell well then since only a handful of people would be willing to pay big money to get the ingredients.

‘If I had found out about the Land of Heritage beforehand, I would’ve never known about these looping tricks.’

Vigilante A looked around before seeking confirmation from Zheng Dao that there were no more things that belonged to him. He then immediately brought the carrying case into the System Space; the manager was quite jealous of what had happened but didn’t say a word.

A moment later, Fang Ning heard the familiar sound of a System Notification.

[The System used Beginner Alchemy, expended 1000 experience points, “Nine Turn Danggui 1 “, and “Ice Pond Safflower” to make Variated Blood-enriching Pill. The System has consumed the Variated Blood-enriching Pill, Host’s wounds are starting to heal.]
