Infinite Professions
Chapter 288 - 153: Momentum (Part 3)
To be honest, his strength isn’t really weak.
Tier Five Profession, Tier Six Cultivation, and a Tier Seven Mecha.
Ordinary professionals of the same tier would find it really difficult to take him down.
But Shen Hex is not ordinary.
In terms of profession, the strength of a Celestial Traveler, Seeker, or even the Emperor of Ten Thousand Beasts, all surpass his Ten Thousand Mothers Preacher and Ten Thousand Mother Mecha Master; even surpassing by one tier wouldn’t give him the slightest advantage.
In terms of cultivation, the Dao Golden Core completely crushes him, making it easy to fight across realms.
Only that Tier Seven Evil Dao Mecha is somewhat troublesome, but Shen Hex, with Slaying Karma in his hand and the Celestial Traveler Power targeting evil demons, along with the Sword and Saber Darklight Method, can break his mecha with no difficulty.
He hasn’t even utilized the Celestial Punishment Asura’s Ability; otherwise, this battle would be even more easily won.
This further deepened Shen Hex’s understanding of his own strength and the capabilities of professionals.
In terms of personal strength, he has already surpassed the unmatched talents like Dao Xuankong in the Martial Mansion, and can be said to be invincible in the Fifth Realm.
In terms of professional strength, Zhuang Zhou’s Dream of the Butterfly, harvesting all realms, puts him far ahead; forget Tier Five, even Tier Six and Tier Seven have few who can compare with him.
Overall, even in this main world where everyone seems to have cheats, he is still far ahead.
"But it’s still not enough!"
Shen Hex shook his head, collected Lanshan Daoist’s corpse, withdrew the Five Elements Lock Demon Array, and turned to leave.
This Lanshan Daoist had recently taken on a mission, one that was about to expose him as a hidden agent.
Even though he hadn’t had time to act and fell into Shen Hex’s hands, this mission wouldn’t stop because there was more than one executor.
This was an action from the entire Ten Thousand Mothers Sect, and even all the Evil God Sects on Yunlan Star; all hidden agents had received the same mission.
...
Days later, at the Special Bureau Base, Chief’s Office.
"You came back just in time!"
Teng Manyun looked serious: "I sent you some data, take a quick look."
"Alright!"
Shen Hex nodded, opened his personal terminal, and displayed a video file.
"The Son of God is about to descend!"
"The will of our master will be fulfilled in this world!"
"Blood sacrifices for the Blood God..."
"We will eradicate the Evil Emperor’s lackeys!"
"Welcome the birth of the Divine Son with blood!"
The words were deeply inciting, showing videos of various cult gatherings, and even some public broadcasts.
Shen Hex was not surprised by this, he simply turned his gaze to Teng Manyun.
Teng Manyun’s expression was stern: "The Evil God Sects have been frequently active these days, recklessly gathering despite the risk of exposure, and even openly clamoring about some Divine Son descending, causing panic."
Shen Hex smiled: "They’re trying to build momentum."
"Exactly."
Teng Manyun nodded: "But what’s the purpose of this momentum?"
"Realness hidden in virtual, virtual hidden in real, both are possible."
Shen Hex’s expression didn’t change: "Don’t let them mess up our footing, just adapt to whatever comes."
"It’s true that’s the way to say it, but there’s something unsettling about it."
Teng Manyun sighed: "The higher-ups want us to beef up our defenses and fully eliminate these Evil God Cultists. These days, you’ll be joining me on missions."
"Okay!"
Shen Hex nodded, then suddenly asked: "Do you think there’s a chance the Special Bureau Base could be overrun?"
"Hmm!?"
Teng Manyun’s eyes narrowed: "Why did you suddenly ask this?"
Shen Hex smiled: "For safety considerations."
"..."
Teng Manyun was silent for a moment, before speaking: "Theoretically, no. This base was heavily developed by the Special Bureau, using a lot of the Empire’s advanced technology, plus numerous setups. Even if the Evil God Sect deploys Tier Nine forces for a strong assault, we can hold the fort and wait for reinforcements; there’s almost no chance of it falling."
"Then I’m relieved."
Hearing this, Shen Hex had nothing more to say: "I’ll go prepare then."
"Alright!"
Teng Manyun nodded, watching him leave the office, her unease inexplicably growing.
