Chapter 916 - 707: Pass Permit
Outside Fengling Space Gate.
This is a building nearly thirty meters tall, covered with fifty centimeters of steel, lying like a steel lion within the city.
The steel outer walls are pitted with holes, with cannons poking out from the openings.
This is a steel prison, and even more so, an immovable terrifying artillery platform.
As the only ten-star space gate in Guanglin, this place is a restricted zone of the city.
The Fengling Space Gate is located in the most bustling part of the city center, where land is extremely valuable. Yet, a two-kilometer diameter area around the space gate is cordoned off, with no one allowed to approach easily.
Pedestrians approaching will be warned, or even directly detained.
Of course, those living nearby or passing pedestrians do not come to court trouble, as no one wants to be targeted by thousands of cannons.
Due to the very sparse surroundings and the rare presence of people, Lin Feng and Wang Mian were immediately noticed the moment they appeared by soldiers on the observation deck of the steel lion and patrols on the ground who were constantly on alert.
The originally silent and oppressive atmosphere instantly became more tense, with various monitoring and artillery silently aiming in the direction of the two.
"Alert, alert, suspicious persons with concealed appearances approaching."
Soldiers, holding communication devices, reported the situation at the first opportunity.
At this time, Lin Feng and Wang Mian were both enveloped in black robes, their appearances unrecognizable.
In the city, this attire didn’t seem like that of good people. Even without revealing their aura, the stance and stride of the two gave the soldiers an inexplicable pressure.
To prevent abnormal people from infiltrating Base City, the ten-star level Fengling Space Gate is kept locked down year-round.
To enter, one must notify in advance and register for approval.
After strict official review, they are allowed to enter during the stipulated time.
There was no registered information today.
Therefore, these two are undoubtedly uninvited guests.
Not only the soldiers, but three nearby passersby also watched this scene with surprise, and their eyes widened in amazement.
However, they soon sensed the danger, and hurriedly left the scene.
"Do not approach and remove your hoods."
Seeing the two not stopping but drawing closer, a middle-aged soldier stepped forward, unsheathing a weapon from his waist and issuing a stern warning.
Ordinary firearms are ineffective against the strong, which is also why most soldiers use cold weapons.
Seeing the serious expressions and defensive postures of the soldiers before him, Lin Feng raised his right hand, indicating he meant no harm.
But the soldiers’ bodies remained tense, not daring to relax their vigilance.
Those daring to enter a ten-star level space gate possess at least king-like strength, beyond their capacity as advanced martial artists and demon spirit masters.
For a king, a siege has little effect.
"Hmm..."
Suddenly, a chill surged in Lin Feng’s heart, raising goosebumps all over his body.
He looked up, staring at the Guardian Divine Artifact hovering in the sky.
He could feel himself being locked in by the "Red Lantern" above his head.
Any movement would invite a destructive attack.
Even with his current strength, he couldn’t withstand it.
This is the power and deterrent of the Guardian Divine Artifact.
This is also the main reason why abnormal people dare not tread lightly in Base City.
Appearances can be disguised, auras can be hidden, but once one’s identity is exposed, under the lock of the Guardian Divine Artifact, even divine level assassins have nowhere to hide.
Only a dead end awaits.
During the confrontation, a middle-aged man flapped wings of dark yellow spiritual power, descending from the sky in less than ten seconds from the soldier’s report.
"Guardian Chen."
Seeing the figure arrive, the soldiers all exclaimed.
"Remove your hoods!"
Guardian Chen’s gaze swept over Lin Feng and Wang Mian, eyes growing sharper, voice stern.
The arrival of the Guardian did not relieve the scene’s tension, as these two mysterious figures remained too calm.
Chen Jikai was already poised to call upon an Emperor.
Under the gaze of the cannons and countless eyes, Lin Feng lifted his hand, removing his hood, and the previously tense atmosphere solidified instantly.
In Guanglin, perhaps some do not recognize the mayor and guardian, but no one fails to recognize the young man before them.
He is Guanglin’s pride.
He is the idol of students.
The topic of daily conversation among people.
A frequent figure on television shows.
The restaurants he endorses have spread throughout Guanglin’s streets and alleys, yet each one is always packed, with none ever closing.
If Lin Feng wanted, he could directly become the Son of the City of Guanglin.
The only regret is that Lin Feng is not from Guanglin.
This is the regret of all Guanglin people.
"Lin Feng!"
"Wind God!"
"Celestial King Hua!"
Exclamations rang out; no one expected that Lin Feng, who had just become a Celestial King of the Pure Land, would suddenly appear in Guanglin.
Originally tense, Chen Jikai’s taut body also relaxed.
It turned out to be Lin Feng.
No wonder he felt a sense of danger.
Both kings, he was merely a middle-rank Martial King, how could he be a match for Lin Feng?
Guardian Chen had no prior dealings with Lin Feng, and even with his status, he dared not put on airs in Lin Feng’s presence.
As one of the Thirteen Celestial Kings of the Pure Land, in a way, Lin Feng’s status is already comparable to that of an Emperor; his strength and position both surpass those of a King.
"Lin Feng, why are you—?"
Chen Jikai asked with a slight tone of curiosity.
Upon confirming Lin Feng’s identity, both the soldiers and Chen Jikai relaxed.
Lin Feng’s reputation and achievements garner deep trust.
Anyone might betray the Human Race, but Lin Feng certainly would not.
"Something I need to borrow Fengling for."
Lin Feng replied.
Chen Jikai realized, glanced at Wang Mian, but did not inquire further.
Lin Feng joined the Pure Land.
The identity of a Celestial King of the Pure Land is very dangerous.
A Celestial King of the Pure Land suddenly entering a locked ten-star space gate is even more dangerous.
For others, even other Base City Guardians, inquiries and approval would be necessary, but not for Lin Feng.
Chen Jikai pulled out his communication device and informed his superiors.
His superior, stationed at this space gate, is an Emperor.
The superior was equally surprised by Lin Feng’s appearance but did not say much, also choosing to allow passage.
In a sense, the name Lin Feng itself serves as a pass.
"Go ahead." Chen Jikai gestured a wave.
Beside him, Wang Mian, with eyes hidden within the hood, felt a bit emotional.
To enter a ten-star level space gate without prior registration, such privilege is rare.
He himself really had no way.
"Hmm."
Lin Feng nodded, and under a multitude of admiring and awe-struck gazes, his figure gradually faded, eventually disappearing into the steel lion.
"It’s a pity, I didn’t get a photo just now."
"Yeah, getting a signature would have made my son go crazy with joy back home."
"Mainly because we didn’t dare, it would be bad to delay the Wind God."
Soldiers murmured with regret.
Not only the soldiers, even Guardian Chen Jikai felt a bit regretful.
His daughter is also a fan of Lin Feng.
