The “3/3” figure indicated that the collection of Upgrade Essential Items necessary for the Drone Upgrade was complete. Upon seeing this number, Yan Fei finally let out a sigh of relief. The acquisition of the third Upgrade Essential Item hadn't taken long, but the process had been extremely difficult, definitely the most challenging of all his previous endeavors. Not only was he rendered helpless by the Laser Array inside the Museum, but the appearance of a person capable of controlling thunder and lightning also posed a great threat to him. If the Thunder and Lightning controller hadn't been preoccupied with defending the entire Holy See, distracted by the multitude of Missiles launched by Yan Fei and forced to destroy them out of necessity, Yan Fei would have been in grave danger. As soon as the controller of Thunder and Lightning could spare a hand and attack Yan Fei with full strength, Yan Fei would have undoubtedly met with certain death.

After this adventure, Yan Fei deeply realized the terror of the Holy See. At least that controller of Thunder and Lightning was someone he would never want to confront. Unless his Strength significantly improved, and it wasn't absolutely necessary, Yan Fei never wanted to face these ancient Forces with centuries of heritage in his lifetime.

After acquiring the Drone Upgrade Essential Items, Yan Fei looked at the Papal Scepter in his hand, now missing its spherical beads, and felt it was a hot potato. If possible, he even wanted to return the Papal Scepter. However, after some thought, Yan Fei abandoned this clearly irrational idea, eventually deciding to store the Papal Scepter in the Universal Space and resolved never to take it out again, lest word got out and provoked the fury of the Holy See, drawing their firepower onto himself.

Yan Fei waited in the Ocean Trench and soon, when the local time reached midnight, the Drone's data rapidly refreshed. In an instant, the Drone regained its peak combat capabilities. All of Yan Fei's injuries caused by the lightning strikes from the Drone incident also completely healed. Feeling rejuvenated, he controlled the Drone and drove towards the entrance to the Suez Canal, preparing to return along the path he had come from…

At dawn, the fire caused by the massive explosion at the Vatican Museum was finally extinguished by the efforts of the fire department of Rome City. However, by this time, the Vatican was in a sorry state. The Vatican Museum had become Ruins, with wisps of smoke still curling up from them, a sight of utter devastation.

The elderly Pope and his attendants stood next to the Vatican Museum, looking at the museum that now lay in Ruins and the several cracks that had appeared underground. His body shook slightly, whether from rage or the morning cold was unclear…

The massive explosion of the gas pipeline had caused several cracks in the underground of the Vatican. St. Peter's Basilica was no exception, a crack had appeared deep underground beneath it, revealing a sealed room to the world once more.

This sealed room lay an unknown depth beneath St. Peter's Basilica, a vast space with no apparent entrance or exit, and it was a mystery how it had been constructed. The room was empty, save for a large, black coffin placed in the center. Initially sealed, the lid of the coffin had cracked open due to the violent shocks caused by the recent explosion.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from within the coffin, and then a hand emerged from the narrow opening, pushing the lid of the coffin onto the ground with force. Following that, a young man sat up from within the coffin, looking around with a bewildered expression.

The young man who sat up from the coffin was a typical young Caucasian male, dressed in old-fashioned Suits and a black top hat, his complexion deathly pale. It was unclear how long he had lain in the coffin. However, strangely, the young man was very clean; not a speck of dust was to be found on his suit, and his face was also immaculate.

The young man slowly sat up, his eyes revealing a confused look. It was a while before he murmured to himself, “Who am I? Where is this? What time is it? Why am I here?”

Unfortunately, there was no one to answer the young man's questions. Unable to find an answer, he began to pat his head with his hands, but his mind remained a blank canvas, unable to recall anything. He had no idea who he was, where this was, what time it was, or why he was lying in a coffin.

The young man remained in a daze for a long time before finally standing up from the coffin and walked out briskly. His walking posture seemed as if it had been specially trained, very standard, conveying the air of an old European aristocracy.

The young man made a circle inside the sealed room, hoping to find some clues. Unfortunately, except for the coffin, there were none. Inside the coffin lay nothing but himself. He felt the pockets of his Suits, only to find them empty as well.

Then, the young man discovered a crack leading to the surface, created by the explosion. He hesitated briefly, feeling instinctively that leaving the room in this manner was somehow improper. Nevertheless, curiosity drove him to decide to climb out through the crack, so he began to scale the passage upwards. At first, his climbing motions were clumsy, and his speed slow. But as time passed, his movements became more agile, and his speed increased. In the end, with a light leap, he jumped over ten meters upwards, displaying his astonishing agility.
