Seizing the BOSS Template at the Start

Chapter 646: Chapter 326: Devoured Destiny

At the same time, more than three hundred robots, which were maintaining the surrounding structures, abandoned their protective duties and rushed directly toward the prison.

With a series of thunderous roars erupting.

The immense energy from the Star Core F Robots suddenly surged into the prison.

Buzz~

A massive aura exploded, and a Dark Night Elf gradually ascended in the energy, under everyone’s gaze.

The mechanical voice of the Star Core F Series enveloped the entire Inner City District.

[Target Golden Upper Tier Dark Night Elf has fallen into a coma, the capture mission is successfully completed, deceased beings, criminals: 30 people.

Innocent residents: 0.

Prison Law Enforcers: Fourteen severely injured.

Damaged buildings: Three levels of Dongwu Prison.

Damaged Star Core F Series: Models 1908-1917, a total of ten units.]

[Danger has been neutralized, Dongwu City legal residents may rest easy.]

As the mechanical voice faded, the Magic Power of the Golden Upper Tier was quickly sealed by the powerful energy, and the Silver Level messengers who escaped were swiftly captured by the robots, bound tightly, and sent into the prison for detention.

Various departments began to busy themselves, repairing the prison.

The whole of Dongwu City fell into silence at this moment, with awe and Faith written all over the faces of the citizens.

If someone were to use a special Magic to observe, they would see a milky white radiance gradually appearing on the statue of Baiyi at the largest plaza in the center. This was the gathered Faith, surpassing even some of the statues of the Divine Teaching.

Meanwhile, in the envoy reception building.

Jia Lan paced anxiously, how could that guy be so foolish?

Though being detained for seven days was quite humiliating, that should have been the end of it.

But now... it seems things have escalated.

”Madam Jia Lan, what should we do now?”

A Human Race member said worriedly: ”If something truly happens to them, then it seems...”

Jia Lan paused her pacing slightly, looked at them calmly, and said, ”I will report the happenings here truthfully to Lord Noel. You all belong to the families of legislators; think of the consequences yourselves.”

The four young Silvers hung their heads low, daring not to speak further.

They actually knew very well that even if Dongwu City really killed them, it wouldn’t affect the cooperation between the two Federations.

In the face of Xia’s existential risk, they were too insignificant.

Even those legislators were too insignificant.

Knock, knock, knock...

An urgent knocking sounded.

Jia Lan was slightly taken aback, quickly gathered herself, and with a slight smile, went to open the door.

Matt Wei looked at them rather coldly: ”Lord City Lord wants to see you all, follow me.”

Jia Lan’s eyes showed some apprehension. She looked back, took two quick steps forward, and quietly attempted to slip a Space Ring into Matt Wei’s hand.

But Matt Wei easily dodged it, calmly said: ”Let’s not do this. What do you want to know?”

His attitude wasn’t good, but he knew what this anxious Golden Upper Tier was worried about.

”Wasn’t it supposed to be seven days later? It seems like only three days have passed...”

Walking ahead, Matt Wei’s eyes showed more annoyance: ”With such a big commotion, do you even need to ask?”

”Prayer is all you can offer, that kid is likely done for.”

Matt Wei said, as the Magic Power fluctuations around him flickered, leading the five unresisting individuals rapidly towards the City Lord’s Mansion.

Jia Lan’s suspended heart finally sank.

But she quickly gathered her emotions, a well-mannered smile appearing on her face.

Regardless, it’s never wrong to show enough respect to a Legendary figure.

The other matters....

To be honest, if it weren’t for the fact that the Legendary couldn’t step away, it wouldn’t be them, the two Golden Upper Tiers, who came here.

Legislators, in front of a Legendary, are merely tools for handling mundane affairs....

At least, that’s the case for the Star Federation’s legislators.

Following Matt Wei to the City Lord’s Mansion, none of them invoked any Magic Power, walking quickly with their heads lowered towards the backyard of the mansion.

Some conversation could be heard ahead, and Jia Lan couldn’t help but look up.

Immediately, she saw a young man and a beautiful woman conversing about something, and judging from the young man’s slightly furrowed brow, he seemed to be in a rather unhappy mood.

Her heart sank even deeper.

”Lord City Lord, the people have been brought.”

”Mm, thank you. Go and receive your reward.”

Baiyi’s voice was very amiable, making Jia Lan relax slightly; this Legendary Divine Abomination City Lord was surprisingly gentle.

”Yes, Lord City Lord.”

As the familiar figure of Matt Wei disappeared, Jia Lan’s heart grew even more nervous.

”You’re called... Jia Lan, right?”

Baiyi scrutinized the nervous Golden Upper Tier, experiencing a slight momentary daze.

It seemed, just a moment ago, Golden Upper Tier was the pinnacle of combat power, yet now it awaited its sentence, anxious and head bowed.

”Yes, Lord City Lord, I am Jia Lan Guandong.”

Baiyi raised his hand, and many Magnetic Mechanisms appeared, piecing together into seating for guests.

”Have a seat, no need to be formal.”

Baiyi sat down with Luoning beside him. He didn’t directly inquire about the purpose of their mission this time but instead asked with curiosity, ”You must have transferred through many Teleportation Arrays on your way here, did you encounter any peculiar individuals en route?”

Jia Lan was taken aback: ”Peculiar individuals?”

Baiyi pondered for a moment but gave up on the inquiry, knowing well that one who could easily swallow the Destiny of a Golden Upper Tier.

Would at least be a Legendary figure, the specifics of their tier unknown, but certainly not low.

Unless done deliberately, these people wouldn’t be able to detect it.

”Forget it, let’s talk about the purpose of your visit this time.” Baiyi leaned back casually, asking.

”With the efforts of the Sea Race and Dawn, Star and Dawn are now connected, and we wish to trade with Dawn, and sell some of the things Dawn needs to you.”

Jia Lan’s tone gradually lost its nervousness, her face remaining with a well-mannered smile: ”Mr. Noel’s intention is for the Dawn Council to pay some cost price to purchase some A Series City Defense Mecha, up to one hundred units, because City Defense Mecha is also important for Star.”

Jia Lan stated clearly and orderly: ”Moreover, we hope Dawn’s business can open up to Star, as merchants can always bind both sides closer.”

”Under the threat of Ancient Gods, our interests should be a common entity.”

Jia Lan said as she presented a ring to Baiyi with both hands: ”This is something Lord Noel asked me to give to you.”

Baiyi’s eyes showed some appreciation; this Alchemist was quite good, doing well in various aspects, if only he could be recruited....

Upon taking a look inside, Baiyi saw that there wasn’t much, only some books and resources.

After glancing at those books, a hint of delight appeared in Baiyi’s eyes, seeing forbidden knowledge and more Arcane Magic knowledge.

”Please thank Mr. Noel for me, I’ll accept these items.”

”As for what you mentioned earlier, I will have someone connect with you.”

[Respected Mr. Baiyi, the task you issued has been successfully completed.]

A mechanical voice sounded at the same time, while a Dark Night Elf, whose Magic Power was sealed and currently unconscious, was sent by a force nearby Baiyi.

Baiyi looked at Enmi, casually asking, ”By the way, has Mr. Chu Ao finished his seclusion?”

”No, it probably won’t end within a few years.” Jia Lan’s eyes showed tension once more.

”What a pity....”

Baiyi said as the light of a Saint gradually flowed through his eyes, with immense Soul Power observing the Fate of this person.

However, instead of the vast destiny the Golden Upper Tier + Star Messenger once had, it was now extremely scarce.

Almost like it had a semblance of having been gnawed upon.

Divination Master.... or rather, the most terrifying aspect of the Fate System is just this, once one’s destiny is devoured, there’s basically no saving them.

They experience a decline in intelligence, until they meet their demise.

Because destiny represents a person’s future possibilities.

Once a person’s destiny completely disappears, then they have no future.

And no future equals death.

But this death doesn’t happen abruptly, it only affects the surrounding beings and himself, causing him to self-destruct.

Even if they die, few would suspect anything, as seeing someone’s destiny is quite difficult; without the Power of Saint, Baiyi would need instruments to observe it.

Meaning, the ones with devoured destinies don’t even know how they die.

For instance, upon meeting this person, Baiyi felt a faint aversion towards him.

Not just that, the Fate System can also fix or modify the future, without swallowing it can silently end a person’s life.

This Dark Night Elf embodies that plight.

The reason these messengers didn’t suspect anything was manifold, but being influenced by this broken destiny was definitely one of the causes!

Baiyi looked towards Luoning: ”Can you discern anything?”

Luoning shook her head, somewhat dejected: ”I can’t see, it’s like....”

She paused abruptly, her eyes suddenly filled with golden radiance, as if she... saw a shadow?
