Chapter 880: Chapter 376 Strengthening the Boundary, Freya Louise: Where are you now?_2
Tens of kilometers from the inner city, at the 17th Base Airport, transport airplanes constantly took off and descended, while numerous vehicles and personnel carried supplies in and out.
Just then, a dark red fighter aircraft cut through the sky and descended vertically onto the vacant emergency landing platform. At once, many people turned somber, their eyes revealing awe as they gazed at the Throne Fighter.
Ssh! The tailgate of the fighter aircraft slowly opened, and Jack Clark, with his black hair draped over his shoulders, wearing a gray and white leisure suit, stepped down.
At this moment, Jack’s aura was concealed, making him appear like an ordinary person, one with extremely noble temperament, and a handsome and elegant ‘breakthrough human’.
Hum! A radiance flickered on the wristwatch worn by Jack, emitting a strong spatial power that enveloped the aircraft, turning it into a streak of white light and storing it into subspace.
“Hello, General Clark, I’m Lori Miller, assistant to Gabriel King.”
...
In the Seventh Corps, Jack was known as Darren Callum, but here, he did not conceal this pseudonym. With a mixture of truth and deception, it was easier to confuse the enemy.
Jack spoke with a gentle tone, “Thank you for your trouble, Miss Miller.”
With that, the two of them boarded something resembling a black, luxurious sports car that was a hovering vehicle, and with a whoosh, they flew towards the majestic building surrounded by cloud mist in the middle of the city.
Aboard the vehicle, Lori Miller briefed Jack on the current battle zone situation: “At present, there are seventeen kings stationed in the Heavenly Abyss Battlefield, along with three Heavenly Kings and the Second Councilor.”
“However, the Second Councilor usually stays in closed-door cultivation. Major affairs of the battle city are handled by Gabriel King, Divine Sky Heavenly King, and Overlord Dragon Heavenly King.”
“Among them, Gabriel King is responsible for internal affairs scheduling, Divine Sky Heavenly King is in charge of commanding the fourteen army legions, and Overlord Dragon Heavenly King is responsible for the command over the other kings.”
As she spoke, the vehicle arrived at the city center.
The towering Heavenly Abyss Building, with its middle section several thousand meters high, came to a gentle stop on a platform located one thousand meters up.
Following Lori Miller, Jack entered the bustling Service Hall, passed through several identity verification processes, and took the elevator to the top floor over four thousand meters high.
Lori Miller knocked on the door and respectfully announced, “Reporting to the Throne, Major General Callum has arrived.”
A soft voice came from inside.
“Let him in.”
“Yes.”
“General Clark, please.”
Jack gave a slight nod to Lori who opened the door, and then he walked in.
This was an office over ten meters high and spanning over a thousand square meters, filled with a soft white light. Jack’s gaze was immediately drawn to the blonde figure in the distance.
Compared to the earlier restrained presence of Mysterious Martial Sky King and Sky King Denny Kaye, the blonde woman standing amidst the light seemed like the source of all that radiance.
Incarnation of the law!
Jack’s eyes narrowed in an instant as he cordially said, “Pleased to meet you, Gabriel Throne.”
Gabriel smiled slightly, her voice gentle, “No need for formalities, have a seat and let’s talk.”
After Jack took a seat across from her, Gabriel exclaimed, “I didn’t expect you to break through to the Ninth Heavens so quickly. You truly are a genius that even the Councilor pays attention to.”
Jack modestly said, “You flatter me, King. The main reason I was able to break through so quickly was due to some opportunities I found in the forbidden area outside of the Seventh Corps.”
Gabriel laughed softly, “Many times, luck is also a form of strength; there’s no need to be modest.”
“What are your plans coming to Heavenly Abyss, are you headed to the battlefield or joining another department?” Even Gabriel could not ignore the opinions of a genius like Jack.
In the Heavenly Abyss Battlefield, it wasn’t only about frontal combat; many departments involved in other matters also needed manpower, including high-end strong figures.
“My purpose here is simple, ‘to kill more’ of the Purgatory Demon Race.” Jack’s tone was very calm, yet it contained an astonishing killing intent.
Feeling the invisible aura of bloodshed radiating from Jack, Gabriel’s expression also became somewhat solemn, and she asked in a deep voice, “What is your current strength?”
Genius like Jack could not be judged by realm alone, especially since he had confronted and killed a Mid-term of Ninth Heaven Purgatory Demon while still in the Eighth Layer Early Phase, with an exaggerated combat power.
Not to mention the achievement of summoning a projection to suppress and kill a demon king in the past.
Jack Clark thought for a moment, “With my current strength, in a head-on confrontation, I should be able to clash with ordinary demon kings. If I deploy the summoning altar, I should be able to suppress a mid-stage demon king and even clash with the late-stage ones.”
As the Thunderflame Demon Dragon grew closer to the mid-mythical stage and mastered three higher-order laws, even a projection at a mere thirty percent of its power became more terrifying.
As for his own body’s combat power, Jack spoke conservatively, saying only that he could clash with ordinary demon kings, after all, he had not yet personally fought against a demon king level strong man.
Even so, this caused Gabriel to take a deep breath.
With the cultivation of the early phase of Eighth Layer Heaven, confident in clashing with demon kings, this span of strength is even more exaggerated than those known as seeds of civilization, the ‘monstrous’ Mokaya Dark Demon God seeds.
Gabriel pondered for a moment, “The recent conflict between the Heavenly Abyss Battlefield and The Purgatory Family just ended, there won’t be a major war breaking out in the short term.”
“However, the situation at the frontline is unpredictable and constantly changing. We cannot afford to be careless, as a civilization-level battle might erupt again quite soon.”
“For the next few days, get familiar with the situation here, and at the same time, try not to reveal your full strength,” she added.
“I’ll impose a media blackout on news about you. By preparing in advance, perhaps it could deal a heavy blow to the Mokaya Dark Demon Empire.”
In a civilization-level war, ordinary geniuses hardly make any impact, even a king-level fighter cannot sway the tide of battle.
But Jack Clark is an exception, with the cultivation base of the early stage of Ninth Heaven, his combat power comparable to mythical beings, and even able to summon projections capable of contending with late-mythical stage Giant Beasts.
In situations where both sides’ top-end powers are restraining each other, with his strength and previous displays of ‘unlimited endurance,’ he can dominate the battlefield and tip the balance.
Just imagine, a king-level strong man with no one to counter him, whose movement speed, attack, and endurance are all maxed out, suddenly appearing on battlefields of Ninth Heaven and below—how terrifying that scenario would be.
By then, as long as Jack is given time, he alone could slaughter millions from The Purgatory Demon Race and their vassal soldiers, decimating the enemy’s core elite forces.
Hence, after Jack left, Gabriel’s figure dissolved into countless points of light that disappeared into the sky; she needed to consult with the other two Heavenly Kings.
She was also preparing to convene a King’s Conference in a few days to set a trap for The Purgatory Demon Race on the opposite side.
Under normal conditions, following the end of a Civilization Battlefield, both sides need at least one Sun Wheel cycle, over a month, before large-scale war breaks out again.
But the sudden arrival of Jack gave Gabriel a glimpse of opportunity.
Meanwhile, as Gabriel sought out the Divine Sky Heavenly King to discuss matters, massive legions of vassal alien races from the Purgatory Demon’s rear began to sweep forth on the battlefield opposite.
…
Heavenly Abyss Building, floor 1008. The vast room spanned thousands of square meters, including rest and cultivation areas.
Moreover, the building was fortified with the power of a Heavenly King. Even a Ninth Heaven Expert going all out couldn’t inflict any damage, which provided a suitable place for Jack to carry out his daily cultivation practices.
After meeting with Gabriel, access permissions on Jack’s smart wristwatch were unlocked. It was updated with most of the detailed data regarding the current state of Heavenly Abyss.
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, over four thousand meters high, looking down at the city filled with science fiction aesthetics, different from the Blue Star World, Jack couldn’t help but feel a bit dazed.
Reflecting on his experiences over the past year, sometimes even Jack wondered if he was dreaming.
When he first encountered True Martial, standing under the podium and seeing Lori Parma smash a one-meter-thick concrete slab with one punch, Jack was stunned for a long time.
He didn’t expect human flesh and blood could be so powerful that casually lifting a hand or foot could be comparable to heavy artillery, able to blast everything away.
Yet now, only half a year later, what used to be a hundred kilograms of arm strength when he first achieved Foundation Establishment and breakthrough to First Layer Heaven, his casual strikes were now comparable to a nuclear explosion.
It was a pity that Teacher Lori and the others were not on the Heavenly Abyss Battlefield; otherwise, showing them the aura of Ninth Heaven would surely make for an interesting sight.
Thinking along these lines, Jack’s lips curled into a smile. He then took out his mobile phone from the Sumeru Bracelet, scrolled through and found Freya Louise’s number.
The call was quickly connected, and he was met with the girl’s surprised voice.
“Hmm! Jack Clark, you actually remembered to call me. Which base are you at now?”
“Heavenly Abyss City.”
What do you think?
