#308 - Chapter 307 Entering the Five Forbidden Zones
“This…”
Ye Yu's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, his eyes filled with unconcealed shock.
When he first met Li Chenqiu at noon today, he felt that the other party looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before. This feeling became even stronger when he heard the name "Li Chenqiu."
So, after boarding the cruise ship and having some free time, Ye Yu searched for the name "Li Chenqiu" out of curiosity, and then…
[The most dazzling pearl of the Federal First District, a monstrous genius once in a century – Li Chenqiu!]
[Second Restriction possessing power comparable to Fourth Restriction, is it a distortion of human nature or a decline in morality!]
[A city hero who turned the tide, an invincible myth who stands tall!]
[An immortal dark soldier, the ultimate weapon on the road to becoming king!]
…
Ye Yu swiped his finger, looking at these sensational headlines, and felt his brain buzzing. The emotion of shock was like a wave, stirring in his heart, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.
A Third Restriction expert who purged Sixth Restriction revived beasts, the owner of a Spirit Mysterious Weapon, a young hero who saved the city!?
Is my boss so exaggerated?!
Ye Yu stiffly turned his head and looked at Li Chenqiu, who was passively taking a beating, trying to connect the other party with the headlines, but no matter how he connected them, Ye Yu always felt a sense of unreality in his heart.
Which city hero would be forced into a corner and beaten?
At this time, news about Li Chenqiu becoming the Dean of Discipline at Zhaixing Academy and repelling a Ninth Restriction revivalist in City 200 had not yet made the news due to the deliberate concealment by Zhaixing Academy.
Otherwise, Li Chenqiu's name would probably have resounded throughout the entire Northern Federation Second District.
…
The distance between the Southern Federation and the Northern Federation is quite far, and a single voyage takes two to three weeks.
During these boring days, Li Chenqiu repeated his regular routine, going to bed on time at 12:00 midnight, getting up on time at 1:00 AM, and heading to the indoor sports hall to dance with the Chaos Force Ring until 7:00 AM.
On a certain sunny morning.
Indoor Sports Hall
Li Chenqiu took off the Chaos Force Ring, panting, and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, watching the sun rising from the sea, and listening to the sound of rivers rushing from inside his body.
“Is this the Fifth Restriction?”
The corners of Li Chenqiu's mouth curled up, and he stretched his body casually, the sound of “噼里啪啦” ringing like firecrackers.
“I wonder what level my current strength is at, whether it is stronger or weaker than other Seventh Restriction experts?” Li Chenqiu clenched his fist, his eyes full of anticipation.
At this time, he really wanted to have a fight with his Seventh Restriction Soul Weapon, but due to the venue, Li Chenqiu had to suppress this thought in his heart.
After finishing his training, Li Chenqiu went to the public bath to wash his body before leaving the sports hall and heading to the cruise ship's restaurant.
There weren't many people in the restaurant in the morning. Li Chenqiu took a plate, casually grabbed a dozen meat buns, carried a bowl of porridge, found an empty seat and sat down, and began to bury his head in eating.
Not long after.
Ye Yu walked up to Li Chenqiu with a bag containing takeout boxes: “Brother Li, good morning!”
Li Chenqiu swallowed the bun in his mouth and looked up at Ye Yu: “Good morning, why are you standing? Sit down!”
Ye Yu waved his hand: “I won't sit down. The food will get cold later, and Brother Xiang doesn't like to eat cold food.”
“He's so demanding just for a ride to bring him food. He's got a spoiled problem.”
Ye Yu showed an awkward but polite smile, exchanged a few polite words with Li Chenqiu, and then left the restaurant.
At the same time, a middle-aged man in a black jacket with a beard walked into the restaurant, casually scanning the surroundings, as if looking for a friend.
Li Chenqiu, who was eating, paused his movements and glanced at the man without leaving a trace, muttering in surprise: “There's a Seventh Restriction expert on the ship?”
Then Li Chenqiu ignored him and continued to eat his breakfast.
He could sense that the other party just glanced at him casually and didn't mean anything else.
After finishing breakfast, Li Chenqiu got up and left the restaurant.
…
This room, which everywhere shows luxury, has a soft big bed, exquisitely carved tables and chairs, a gorgeous crystal chandelier, and the most beautiful sea view.
This is the most luxurious sea view room on the Sailing Away cruise ship.
At the round dining table, a middle-aged man with rough skin, thick eyebrows, and big eyes sat in the main seat.
On his left and right hands, sat a man and a woman respectively.
The woman looked to be in her thirties, with a cold and beautiful face, and her hair tied in a single ponytail, looking very refined.
The man was slightly younger than the woman, wearing a thin white shirt, paired with slightly messy hair, giving people a decadent and handsome feeling.
The middle-aged man sitting in the main seat said: “Matsumoto, have you found anything unusual on the ship?”
He spoke fluent Southern Federation language.
Obviously, this group of people are not from the Northern Federation.
The man called Matsumoto said: “I haven't found anything unusual yet.”
The middle-aged man nodded and turned to look at the woman: “What about you?”
“No abnormalities.”
The middle-aged man nodded: “You should all be clear about how much importance the higher-ups attach to this thing. Even if there are no abnormalities, we can't relax our vigilance. If something goes wrong, all three of us will lose our heads, understand?”
“Understood!”
The two lowered their heads at the same time.
…
Li Chenqiu's interior cabin triple room
Click—
The door opened from the outside.
Li Chenqiu walked into the room.
Xiang Nanzhi, who was lying on the bed eating, raised his head and jokingly said: “Little Ye, our mascot, Panda Li, is back.”
“Brother Li.”
Ye Yu, who was reading a book, nodded to Li Chenqiu.
Li Chenqiu rubbed his dark circles under his eyes speechlessly and walked to Xiang Nanzhi's bed and sat down: “Are my dark circles very heavy?”
Xiang Nanzhi mocked: “It's more than just heavy! Go look in the mirror, it's practically natural sunglasses!”
“Hehe.” Li Chenqiu smiled coldly, bent down and leaned closer to Xiang Nanzhi, and lowered his voice: “I met a Seventh Restriction expert in the restaurant just now.”
“Isn't that normal?”
Li Chenqiu said in a low voice: “One might be normal, but I also met two Sixth Restriction experts on the deck, and they both glanced at me, although it was unintentional.”
Xiang Nanzhi looked at Li Chenqiu as if he were an idiot: “And then?”
“And then I came back.”
Xiang Nanzhi: (￣_￣|||)
Xiang Nanzhi endured the urge to curse and asked patiently: “So?”
“Don't you think this is very strange?”
“What's wrong with people watching the sunrise or eating? What's so strange about that? Are you suffering from paranoia?”
“It's normal to have breakfast and watch the sunrise on the deck, but this time is not normal. I've never seen them at this time before. Do you think something might happen…”
“What could happen?” Xiang Nanzhi said impatiently: “Go, go, don't disturb my meal.”
“I'm serious, I'm not joking with you.”
Xiang Nanzhi smiled speechlessly: “Do you think this is a movie? Do you think you're the main character? Wherever you go, disaster strikes…”
