Starting Cultivation in Wasteland-Chapter 524 - 394: Comprehensive Assessment

The Quantum Team values unity, but there is still a clear hierarchy gap between A-level and Supreme.

Steve himself isn’t hard to deal with, however, as he is responsible for coordinating in the center, A-level Warriors usually don’t disturb him.

As for the investigation progress, communication between the four groups suffices; some minor issues are also mutually assisted and coordinated to resolve.

Now that the four A-levels in Green Water City are out of contact, reaching out to the Supreme is inevitable.

However, the troublesome part is that even the Supreme cannot be reached.

The two exchanged a look, their expressions changed, "It seems there’s a big problem... let’s contact those two."

Fortunately, another group responsible for small and medium cities has made contact.

If they still couldn’t be reached, these two would have to consider running away.

The other group, upon hearing this news, was also shocked, "No way, last night, Steve Supreme was still asking us about progress."

The two groups contacted again for a while, still found no contact, then decisively reported to the Quantum Team.

As for returning to Green Water City for investigation, they dared not, and it wasn’t a matter of courage.

Besides the four A-levels of the same cultivation level, even the Supreme has bizarrely disappeared, where would they find the courage to go to Green Water City?

The Quantum Team also found the situation strange, they inevitably took it upon themselves to contact, still no news.

But this time, the relevant responsible person’s authority was much greater, directly finding someone to contact the Tru Conglomerate and other forces.

It wasn’t long before they confirmed a fact: those five people indeed had an incident, and it was last night.

What’s up with Qi Feixiong’s group, no one gave a definite answer, but someone saw them yesterday afternoon.

The two from the other group disappeared directly in the room of a high-end hotel.

Many people saw them return to the hotel, the footage also proved this point, but no one saw them come out.

This is not the scariest part, the more terrifying part is that a battle broke out at dawn in the Wangjiang Tower where Steve Supreme was staying.

The battle didn’t last long, but it was intense, then Steve disappeared.

The assailants even set a fire before leaving, burning down more than half of the Wangjiang Tower.

This battle has already raised high alert in Green Water City, because the battle traces indicate it might involve a Supreme.

Green Water’s government is investigating this matter, a Supreme acting in a downtown area cannot be taken too lightly.

It is worth mentioning that when Steve Supreme arrived at Star No. 2, he used his real fake identity.

Including fingerprints, iris, DNA, everything was real, only the identity information was fake.

This kind of operation typically means he wasn’t planning on doing something bad, just didn’t want to attract attention.

In fact, after Steve arrived at Star No. 2, he even visited some old friends and participated in some social events.

However, as soon as Green Water’s official investigation started, those who knew something clammed up and pretended not to know.

So when the Quantum Team was inquiring about Steve’s whereabouts, Green Water City’s officials hadn’t even confirmed who the tenants were.

Now that someone has come to claim, they of course asked: what did Steve come to Green Water for?

The Quantum Team’s response was straightforward: he was visiting friends, and using a fake identity was only to avoid being disturbed.

This answer was very reasonable, and the government couldn’t pursue it further—although the identity used was fake, all the information was real.

In any case, it’s best not to provoke a Supreme if you can avoid it.

Not only that, but Green Water’s government also gave a reply: besides the five from your team, it seems that no superpower warriors disappeared last night!

With this news, the Quantum Team finally confirmed, their five people were indeed targeted!

As for who took action... do you even have to ask? Just think about what they went to do, and you’ll know the outcome!

To be honest, when Quantum sent people over, they really didn’t expect that the B-level Black Heaven would have such big figures watching.

If there really were formidable backgrounds, it would have been better to stay on the Star of Hope, why go to Star No. 2?

Now the bad news came, they finally started to take the opponent seriously—daring to strike at our Supreme, are they crazy?

The Quantum Team notified one of their Supreme Honored Guests, hoping he could go to Star No. 2 again to investigate the whereabouts of Steve and others.

The Honored Guest asked a couple of questions and directly refused, "I have similar strength to Steve, going there might not help me escape either."

At this point, the Quantum Team couldn’t hide the truth anymore, revealing that this matter might involve the Electromagnetic Body Technique.

The disappearance of a Supreme is also a heavy blow to the Celestial Level Pioneer Team.

Most secrets get exposed little by little, the bigger the matter gets, the harder it is to keep secrets.

However, the Honored Guest didn’t buy it, "Electromagnetic Body Technique? That’s the military’s exclusive preserve... I’m really curious about your guts!"

He enjoyed quite a few benefits in the Quantum Team, but when faced with hard consequences, the team wanted him to act, he could only respectfully decline.

An externally hired Honored Guest has quite a bit of freedom, and his reason was also sufficient—it’s not that I don’t want to help, it’s that you’re trying to mess me up!

Tributors generally handle coordinating and managing relationships and organizing combat, but risking life is acceptable, delivering their life is not.

With him holding this stance, others aren’t fools either—not that they don’t value teammates, it’s that it involves the military!

The Quantum members had no choice either and didn’t want to harm the team spirit, so they had to contact the various forces on Star No. 2, making promises.

The Quantum Group is willing to hand over their Supreme in exchange for Steve, and everything else is negotiable.

They didn’t even mention that four other A-levels also went missing.

The Supreme is the pinnacle of combat power, and ransom is not shameful—who hasn’t failed before?

But adding four A-levels makes the Quantum Team too embarrassed to mention it to the outside world.

People would laugh—how could a Celestial Level team be sending high-level warriors in bulk?

Even on a planet like Zarik Star, Quantum only lost one A-level, Steve.

The Quantum’s bounty was issued, but many factions expressed: we can’t accept this kind of task.

What a joke, most factions don’t even have a Supreme, let alone anyone who has seen one.

However, the largest groups couldn’t help but have other thoughts: What has Quantum encountered this time?

These are well-connected forces, with sources of intelligence; if they want to investigate, it’s usually not hard to find out.

Actually, what happened that night wasn’t really a secret.

They found out that Quantum lost several, and Steve was just one of them.

There were several A-levels, absorbed too... the exact number was unclear, but there were quite a few.

The Tru Consortium was among these forces, the difference being Tru was slightly larger.

The consortium did not have many people in this Star Realm, but they were well-informed, aware of almost everything on Zarif Star.

Quantum knew Tru’s capabilities, so they didn’t hide anything, saying they were here to find Black Heaven.

Who was Black Heaven? The consortium’s people did a little investigation to find out.

No matter what, those involved in the investigation admitted that this was a tough guy to provoke.

The Electromagnetic Attribute was already rare, let alone being able to cross tiers to kill an A-level Wind Attribute.

So after Steve and others arrived on Star No. 2, the consortium had already roughly assessed Black Heaven.

This person possibly held secrets, but also might have inconceivable methods and backgrounds, not advisable to provoke recklessly.

When it comes to sharp insight, it’s nothing more than robbers and financiers!

Tru’s vision wasn’t lacking; after comprehensive analysis, they early on abandoned the idea of dealing with Black Heaven.

Capital can be crazy, but most of the time, stability is the right path.

Quantum requested help with the investigation, Tru indeed cooperated, but it was just business as usual, everyday business for the consortium.

With the Supreme’s disappearance, they were even more thankful—their analysis was correct, Black Heaven truly wasn’t someone easily provoked.

Now Quantum has issued a bounty to buy back the Supreme, they’re not interested in intervening, but they have grown curious.

What secrets does Black Heaven hold, worthy of Quantum not only taking action but also implementing a strong counterattack?

Tru Consortium’s curiosity wasn’t harmful, but rather an information-gathering mission, a necessary reaction.

So they contacted Quantum, asking why they initially pursued Black Heaven?

However, Quantum didn’t answer directly, not only because the information was sensitive, but also because it was easy to be ridiculed.

Is Electromagnetic Body Technique so easy to covet? And in fact, they hit the iron plate!

However, without an answer, Tru had no further reaction.

In the end, it was the Nine Lives Cat Fund that discreetly hinted—since both are capital entities, communication was easier.

Thus, Tru Consortium also learned that Black Heaven allegedly possessed Electromagnetic Body Technique.

That could explain why Quantum acted so fiercely.

If a B-level Warrior held such a secret, it wasn’t unreasonable for others to covet it.

Moreover, although Black Heaven had great military achievements on Zarif Star, the power he displayed was equivalent to an A-level.

The key was there was no information indicating he had a large faction supporting him.

After analyzing the intelligence, Tru Consortium had only one assessment: The Quantum Team was blinded by greed!

Just because you haven’t noticed any force behind the person, doesn’t mean there isn’t one?

Moreover, the consortium’s evaluation of Electromagnetic Body Technique... wasn’t very high, it’s useful but not widely applicable.

The number of Awakened individuals is inherently small, how many awaken to Electromagnetic Attribute?

The complications are substantial, if entangled with the military, even if successful, there would be many consequences to deal with.

The consortium and Pioneer Team are different after all.

Pioneer Team focuses on enhancing its own power, while the consortium always considers the cost-effectiveness of investment and returns.

Therefore, upon learning definite information, Tru believed it was unwise to become adversaries with Black Heaven, but they could approach suitably.

The consortium not only needs to consider profit but also expanding connections and supporting... potent forces and individuals.

Thus, they informed Quantum: we can help find the person, but do not agree to any further conflicts!

Even if the Supreme Steve has been killed, you must sit down and discuss it properly!
