The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 1039 - 488: The Stranger Tenant (2)

Now he no longer needs any external force to use the Ancient Divine Language in the real world.

No longer needing to pay such a painful price.

Just feeling a bit tired.

"As expected of the boss, in the face of such divine power, mortals have no choice but to kneel. After tonight, quite a few people in the Ether Association will probably be eroded by your Power of Life and Death. I will select the best individuals to implant the Ancient God’s Blood. It will probably take just half a month to complete the initial infiltration."

Old Master Si said through the headset, "Until the invasion of the Central Spirit Core Institute."

This attack was not just out of youthful spirit.

Gu Jianlin indeed wanted to humiliate that father and son, but more importantly, he aimed to use the Authority of the Ancient God Clan to create favorable conditions for himself, thus establishing a decisive advantage in the entire battle situation.

Previously, he always considered himself human, and to hide his identity, he seldom used the Authority of the Ancient God Clan.

This time is different.

He no longer needs to conceal himself low-key; he also needs to invade high-key.

After all, he was being treated as a terrorist.

Not launching a terrorist attack on the Judgement Court feels like a bit of a loss.

"Proceed with caution."

Gu Jianlin casually removed the headset, gently crushed it into pieces, and tossed it in the trash can at the emergency exit.

The alarm echoed in the desolate TV tower, and chaos had already erupted in the streets, with countless people swarming in all directions to escape, vehicles piled up haphazardly, and traffic police were sweating profusely.

Gu Jianlin tucked his hands into the pockets of his hoodie, bowed his head slightly, letting the shadow of the hat obscure his face, and hailed a taxi amidst the noisy crowd, politely saying, "Ascender, right?"

The taxi driver was stunned, not even knowing how he was exposed.

"To the Central Spirit Core Institute."

Gu Jianlin sat in the back seat, took out a brand-new ID from his pocket, handed it over, and said, "Undergraduate student of the class of 2022, here’s my identification, can we drive now?"

Gu Jianlin needed a legal identity to investigate the case at the Central Spirit Core Institute; otherwise, he couldn’t just storm in as a wanted criminal, which would easily alert the enemy and ultimately fail to achieve anything.

Although his original plan was to break in through the main gate directly, the Shadows vetoed it.

The Shadow Department prepared a new identity for him: an outstanding returning undergraduate student from the Ying Family, an illegitimate child, and a promising academic talent. Originally a frontline combatant, this person chose to return to school for further studies after several life-and-death crises.

This situation is quite common in the Extraordinary World.

Young people, before seeing the world, are always full of enthusiasm, longing for the swords and flames of the Extraordinary World.

However, after witnessing death on the battlefield, mental breakdown is not uncommon.

Some people don’t even want to receive psychological counseling and simply return home.

Ying Changsu was such a person.

The key is that this person’s character was reclusive and taciturn, with his few friends having all died on the battlefield.

The remaining colleagues at the academy hadn’t seen him in many years.

His identity information on the Deep Space Network had already been changed.

This was the Shadow Department’s backup identity; the original holder had long been imprisoned in a small black room.

Gu Jianlin only needed to wear a realistic mask to enter the Central Spirit Core Institute smoothly.

"Ding."

"Identity information authentication passed."

"Welcome back to the Central Spirit Core Institute, A-level student Ying Changsu."

As the taxi drove away, Gu Jianlin arrived at this renowned academy for training Ascenders.

It’s more like a city within a city than an academy, with the school gate resembling a castle entrance, featuring surveillance cameras that recognized his facial information. He could feel the magnetic field barrier lifting in front of him. There wasn’t even a security guard at the gate, but there were twelve pillars entwined with ancient totems that secretly held an Alchemy Matrix.

Upon entering the school gate, there was a wide tree-lined avenue, surrounded by green lawns and towering buildings.

The roads were broad and tidy, with traffic lights changing back and forth.

This place resembled an isolated, bustling city, with red Ferraris roaring past on the street, young students wearing sunglasses looking exceptionally cool. Box trucks idled at the auction house entrance, with workers cautiously unloading ornate coffins, uncertain which ancient royal family figure lay inside.

An elderly gentleman wobbly descended from the apartment building, holding a four-eyed Golden Retriever, sitting by the roadside reading a seemingly ordinary book with a title written in the Ancient Divine Language.

The lights were still on at the neighboring research institute, where doctoral students in lab coats rushed in carrying briefcases.

This is the largest gathering place for Ascenders in our country.

It’s also a paradise for academia and resources.

You can live here, start a business, or even establish your own family, spreading its branches. However, the mainstream is still academic research, making a name in alchemy technology.

According to the introduction on the Deep Space Network, the Central Spirit Core Institute covers an area of 4,000 hectares, with the majority being residential and trade areas. The inner academy for classes and advanced studies is deep within the school.

While it is an academy, it has very clear social stratification, most apparent in terms of housing.

Because land at the Central Spirit Core Institute is extremely valuable, department heads and senior professors who hold some authority have their own properties here. Besides secure permanent residency rights, they enjoy countless conveniences symbolizing wealth and status. Meanwhile, ordinary staff and students mostly rent apartments.
