CHAPTER 47: 47. THE POWER OF THE 4TH SUPREME TREASURE

Near Jingyun County.

In a stretch of woodland.

"Damn it!"

Yang Fan looked at the fourth curiosity in his possession, unable to suppress a burst of profanity.

Just now, he took out a small bottle of prepared fresh blood from the Space Pearl, poured out a small amount, and smeared it on the surface of the wooden boat, which instantly changed.

Initially, it was a dilapidated craft.

Now it has turned into a hazy phantom wooden boat, looking incredibly magical.

The Soul Stealing Wisp timely provided a wave of information, pointing out the curiosity’s purpose—space traversal.

Yang Fan was elated: "This curiosity is so practical. From now on, I don’t have to climb walls every time I go out, and I don’t have to worry about being caught by the community’s cameras."

He thought for a moment and, as usual, gave it a simple name: "Let’s call it ’Shuttle Boat’."

A thought stirred within him.

The Shuttle Boat turned into a phantom and drilled into his brow.

Yang Fan took out a mirror and placed it above the stone opposite him.

He somewhat awkwardly made a ’V’ gesture towards the mirror and recited in a dramatic manner: "Descend."

The next second.

Something magical happened.

Yang Fan’s brow flashed, and his whole body instantly turned into a phantom, as if transformed into a ghost.

Layer upon layer of ripples emerged, swirling around him, making him appear increasingly vague.

Not only that.

His form seemed to be in a strange "quantum" state.

His entire position shifted unpredictably, appearing on the left at one moment, then on the right the next.

Yang Fan glanced at the mirror, startling himself: "Too cool!"

He suddenly had a whimsical idea, and took out a voice changer from the Space Pearl, placing it at his throat.

Back when he foresaw the catastrophe coming, he stockpiled a lot of supplies, and also bought plenty of quirky items online as a side note.

The voice changer was one of those items.

Yang Fan struck a pose in front of the mirror, his voice becoming extremely deep: "In the name of the ghost, thou art guilty!"

He smirked: "Forget it, that’s way too over-the-top!"

Yang Fan put away the mirror, again expressing amazement: "Although this curiosity lacks combat capability, its coolness is definitely ranked number one."

He looked up at the sky, his brow flashed again, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

In the skies a hundred meters high.

Yang Fan appeared out of thin air, drifting down like a feather.

He nodded with satisfaction: "Within a five hundred meter radius, as long as it’s within visual range, I can move anywhere."

"In the future, as the curiosity gradually grows, the movement distance can extend further; this is definitely an artifact-level ability."

The best thing is, space traversal can be paired with the Spirit Concealment Superpower.

Not seeing yourself doesn’t matter.

If seen by a contracted partner, you can still flash over.

It’s just that powerful!

However.

It’s not without limitations.

Currently, space traversal can only continuously shuttle five times without pause.

After flashing five times, a wait period is necessary.

This can be understood as—skill cooldown.

Yang Fan indulged in flashing about a dozen times, thoroughly enjoying himself before he finally stopped.

He gazed at the night sky, making a decision in his heart: "First find a place to rest, and when daylight comes, go seek the mutated Poisonous Mosquito."

Right now, it’s pitch black in the woods, running around is too dangerous.

Yang Fan found a secluded spot, quickly set up his tent, laid out an electric blanket, and soon fell asleep comfortably.

*

As the sky lightened slightly.

Yang Fan opened his eyes.

He took out a pot of fragrant, hot egg pancakes, devoured them with beef sauce and a cup of hot milk, quickly finishing his breakfast.

This was the food he prepared yesterday before heading out.

Yang Fan washed up, carefully styled his hair, and then slipped out of the tent.

Even though it’s remote wilderness.

One still has to maintain a handsome image.

Yang Fan put away the tent and, from over ten kilometers away, gazed toward Jingyun County.

He only glanced once before exclaiming: "Why are there so many drones over the county town?"

At least a hundred tiny black dots, circling around every corner of the county, seemingly searching for something.

He speculated: "Did I cause a big stir last night and the officials are looking for me?"

Yang Fan was about to leave when he suddenly had an idea: "Previously, I feared exposure and dared not rashly contact the officials.

"But now I’ve obtained a new curiosity and found a way to conceal my identity, why bother hiding from the officials?"

He weighed it for a while and decided: "No time like the present, let’s test an official encounter today."

Just then.

Yang Fan saw from afar a smaller black dot, darting at breakneck speed to collide with a drone.

The two crossed paths.

The drone plummeted to the ground, clearly destroyed.

The small black dot flew towards the second drone.

Yang Fan’s eyes narrowed: "Mutant creature!"

He suddenly realized: "No wonder the officials deployed so many drones, it turns out it’s to deal with mutant creatures."

The flight speed of the small black dot, estimated not less than one hundred fifty meters per second.

Converted, it’s five hundred kilometers per hour, already matching low-speed propeller planes.

How could a regular creature achieve such speed?

This is definitely a mutant creature.

"Boom!"

The second drone exploded.

This should have been a self-destruct drone, with the operator detonating a bomb trying to kill the mutant creature.

Unfortunately, it failed.

The small black dot emerged from the flames, continuing its sweep toward the third drone.

Its speed hasn’t changed, seemingly unharmed.

Yang Fan’s gaze followed the mutant creature, eyes lighting up: "This seems like a perfect chance to make an entrance."

He had already seen that the officials truly have no good solution against the mutant creature.

The drone’s speed couldn’t keep up, and firepower is severely lacking.

Fighter jets would be sufficient; firepower is strong enough, but blasting mosquitoes with cannons is clearly unlikely.

Yang Fan had a thought, disappeared from sight, and then accelerated towards Jingyun County.

*

Jingyun County.

Liren Base.

Major Tang Zhongnan watched the surveillance screen with a heavy expression.

During the early hours, Jingyun County experienced a crimson electric light incident, alarming the entire Jiuzhou Legion.

The legion’s leadership deemed it to be a warning from a big shot.

Thus Major Tang was woken up in the middle of the night, bringing hundreds of soldiers for an overnight rush from neighboring An City.

The major initially thought the higher-ups were just messing around out of boredom.

But the moment the mutant creature appeared, his mindset did a complete one-eighty.

The higher-ups’ judgement was spot-on!

The big shot is truly formidable!

At this time.

Major Tang watched the incredibly agile mutant creature, his heart sinking deeply.

"The third drone has been shot down!"

A soldier shouted.

Three seconds passed.

"The fourth one’s gone too!"

The soldier reported once more.

The captain beside him spoke in a low voice: "Major, if this continues, even if all the drones are exhausted, they won’t kill the mutant creature."

Major Tang pondered for a moment and came up with a plan: "I’ll personally lead and set up a ground position, then use drones to lure the mutant creature over, concentrating fire from the ground..."

Before he finished.

He was interrupted.

A soldier cried out: "What is that?"

Major Tang looked in response, immediately seeing an extremely vague shadow, its outline somewhat human-like, appearing out of thin air on the screen.

The next second.

The shadow vanished from sight.

In an empty area less than one hundred meters from the mutant creature.

This shadow suddenly appeared in a shocking manner.

Including Major Tang, everyone’s jaws dropped instantly.

Good heavens!

What kind of power is this?
