Sky-cracking Rider -
Chapter 903 - 903: Section 896 - Seeking Help
"Help?"
Seeing Miyoshi Xuesen's strange reaction, Chen Fei was puzzled.
Even S-Class Superpower User Heseman Brown had the same expression looking at the monk.
With Chen Fei's civilian background and heavily skewed Psi Skills, he couldn't help Miyoshi Xuesen in any way, not even to shield him from bullets.
If those top leaders truly wanted to kill the monk, there were absolutely ten thousand ways to immediately annihilate him, with no chance of resistance or escape.
Precisely because of this, the monk was panic-stricken now.
Trying to save his own neck was extremely difficult.
The monk hesitated for a moment and said, "You're from the Chen Family, aren't you?"
There are many Chen Families in the world, with substantial power and influence, not just one.
But both Chen Fei and Heseman Brown knew which Chen Family Miyoshi Xuesen was referring to, and both simultaneously guessed what the other wanted to say next.
"You mean the Lin Family, or rather, the Lord of the Sky, right?"
Chen Fei understood instantly; on the list submitted by the "Sacred Advent" organization this time, the Lin Family's Lord of the Sky was almost at the top.
In other words, "Sacred Advent" was essentially a lackey of the Lord of the Sky.
Who would have thought that the world's greatest justice would be the biggest villain's mastermind behind the scenes, light and dark unified, with God playing people to such an extent, it's simply astonishing.
However, in the recent Floating Up plan by "Sacred Advent," they voluntarily exposed themselves, essentially selling out their master completely.
Starting from more than thirty years ago, the Chen Family where Chen Fei belonged, especially that particular line of his uncle, had maintained a close relationship with the Lin Family of the Lord of the Sky, intertwined as close allies. Not only were there private connections between the uncle and the Lord of the Sky, but also significant strategic cooperation between the National Defense Star Aerospace Company and Dragoon Magic Industry.
If they could leverage Chen Fei's favor as a Chen Family disciple to ascertain the Lin Family's attitude, they might escape that special list that exceeded danger level, and possibly use the Lin Family's influence to eliminate other levels of danger.
"Yes, as soon as the Lin Family speaks, no one will trouble me!"
Miyoshi Xuesen took a deep breath, finally grasping the key point.
Despite the Lin Family being denounced because of this list, as long as there's a word from the Lord of the Sky, no one would dare silence the monk in any way, equivalent to a genuine death exemption ticket.
"I can at most reach the Lin Family disciples, the second generation, not necessarily the closest to the Lord of the Sky, but the Lord of the Sky is absolutely out of the question; I can't do it either."
Chen Fei was self-aware; he wasn't his uncle's biological son. Why would the renowned Lord of the Sky give him face? Even if he offended the other party like the monk, the best outcome would be that the elders, considering his uncle's influence, would dismiss it as a youth's ignorance, not pursuing it seriously; that would be it. More than that couldn't be expected; offending those who grant you face would spell certain doom, ending no better than the monk's current situation.
To the monk, at that moment, Chen Xiao'er seemed like his last hope, but the reply he got made his heart sink as he murmured to himself, "Can't do it?"
Chen Fei seriously said, "Who do you think I am?"
As a Chen Family disciple, favors thin with use. Not every favor can be simply utilized.
Even back when Chen Fei's family owed 5 million Star Yuan in foreign debt, Father Chen Haishang didn't ask his own brother for help.
Even among siblings, accounts must be clear; lending money is a favor, not lending is the norm. Once you request assistance, kinship would be measured by money, entirely not worth it; besides, there's only one opportunity, what if you can borrow 500 million instead?!
Now, Chen Fei had already repaid the previous debt, with a modest fortune, not caring much about the 5 million Star Yuan, only wishing his silly sister to finish her university honestly, pursue further studies if necessary, then settle down and have children.
"I am just a nobody, can't even meet such big figures!"
Seeing the monk looking towards him, the S-Class Space Series Ability User quickly shook his head.
Although a strategically important talent for sovereignty, in front of the Lord of the Sky, he was irrelevant.
The monk sat down on the floor, saying lifelessly, "Finished!"
Unable to cling to a powerful thigh, the threat remained, just like a Sword of Damocles hanging high; if some big shot found him unappealing, the assassin might already be on their way to claim his head.
A grown man, and a monk at that, knelt like a duck with a girlish posture... the scene was quite eye-piercing.
Chen Fei glanced at it, quickly turned away, and said indifferently, "You better not think too much; stay here honestly; no one can touch you!"
Upon leaving the bridge, there were 3,035 Pure Light Sparrows, with newly hatched chicks added as Sparrow Sparrow laid eggs during this time.
The adult birds had all reached Human Rank Fourth Stage, but their advancement had halted, with none moving towards Fifth Rank, perhaps limited by their leader Xiao Jiu's own Human Rank Sixth Stage, plus higher aggression makes advancement more difficult, especially compared to the Elemental Energy activity level on Blue Star not matching Cangqiong Star.
Chen Fei's words were not groundless.
Ordinary methods usually couldn't smoothly infiltrate the Giant Battleship; with automated alert systems inside and outside active 24 hours, Combat Mechs clustered, and among the personnel on board under the Ark plan, Ability User ratios were quite high, almost reaching one-third.
Approaching the bridge and breaking through the 3,000-plus Pure Light Sparrows led by Xiao Jiu wasn't easy; at least the stealth adept Dark Element methods couldn't go unnoticed; few knew that Xiao Jiu also possessed an Earth Element Affinity talent, who would guard against a Light-element Magical Beast suddenly casting Gravity spells.
Even if one luckily passed the Pure Light Sparrow Flock, the bridge housed a resident S-Class Superpower User; although attack means were almost nonexistent, he could send intruders thousands of miles away, potentially directly throw you to the Moon.
Moreover, neither Chen Fei nor Miyoshi Xuesen were weaklings; as long as the monk didn't run around, the basic safety was assured.
Previously, Miyoshi Xuesen attempted to bind Chen Fei: firstly, to shift responsibility (choosing a reliable successor for a peaceful retirement), and secondly, as a Military Supervisor (current job), now reversing and being bound by Chen Fei.
"When will days like this end?"
Miyoshi Xuesen was no fool; he also understood that Chen Fei's words made sense.
But he didn't want to be bound to this airship for a lifetime; otherwise, what would be the difference from being imprisoned?
While he still wasn't too old to move, his retirement life should be colorful, using his Dark Element powers to take his entire family around the world; sunshine, beaches, sea, hot springs, plateaus, forests—after playing enough on Blue Star, then visiting Cangqiong Star to see the world—wouldn't it be delightful!
After sighing, the monk looked at Chen Fei and Mr. Brown, saying, "Don't you think the Lin Family is deliberately positioning themselves advantageously?"
His current situation was no different from retirement; after reflecting on this key point, Miyoshi Xuesen no longer hesitated to speak his mind.
"You, you think you're not dying fast enough?"
Now it was the S-Class Space Series Ability User's turn to be a bit dumbfounded; someone like him dared to criticize the family of the Lord of the Sky?
How the family gains power is none of your business; shut your mouth before you get blood splattered on me.
If not for considering that the monk indeed faced life-threatening danger now, Heseman Brown might have banished him again for fifty miles to wake up.
Launching him might really lead to his death being delivered.
"We don't meddle in the affairs of big shots."
Chen Fei held the same attitude; Miyoshi Xuesen's speculation was fruitless.
He too thought of this possibility—using position to maintain strength was an ancient warlord's tactic to avoid being treated as expendable after losing utility. Now with the extraterrestrial race "Sagali" as a new threat, there was less reason for the Lin Family to keep using the thug "Sacred Advent"; that's just real life.
While the probability existed, it wasn't high.
Maintaining power temporarily is rather shortsighted, the Lin Family's social status has always been superlative, there's no need to engage in such high-risk, low-reward actions.
"Heh heh heh heh heh..."
Miyoshi Xuesen maintained a mocking cold laugh.
As a professional in shady dealings, he certainly knew just how dirty those big shots were behind the scenes—righteous in public, yet devouring human flesh and losing all conscience in reality.
