Chapter 162: [161] The Brilliant Playwright

Heishan Camp.

Yesterday's "Eagle Strikes Nine Transformations" training class had Cheng Han's unprecedented learning speed, once again raising the reputation of the young genius.

As he walked on the road, there were more people secretly observing him.

Even the servants who served him had a more eager attitude.

Morning.

"Bang! Bang!"

The servant who delivered breakfast, named "Wang Xiang," knocked on the door on time.

The treatment of the Black Armor Army soldiers was excellent. The three meals a day were all delivered to the dormitory by a servant.

The utensils would be collected by the servant shortly after the meal.

Each servant was only responsible for one soldier, and there was no "one-to-many" situation.

Moreover, the delivery time of the meals could be freely chosen, fully satisfying the personal needs of each soldier.

"Squeak!"

Cheng Han opened the door and took the food box from Wang Xiang's hand, immediately noticing that something was off about his expression.

In the past, he was used to giving a few copper coins as a "tip," so Wang Xiang always had an expectant look when delivering the meal.

But at this moment, this guy's face was pale, and his body was trembling slightly.

"Soldier Cheng, I will take my leave now. I will come to collect the utensils in half an hour."

Wang Xiang bowed respectfully and left quickly.

Cheng Han didn't call him back or ask any questions.

Because it wasn't necessary.

If Wang Xiang didn't say anything, there must be a reason.

Cheng Han watched his figure and silently deduced the situation based on this.

He turned and walked back into the house, muttering, "Interesting."

He opened the food box.

The meal was very abundant.

And all of it was his favorite food.

This wasn't ordering, but Wang Xiang selecting the dishes from the cafeteria according to his taste.

Such service could be considered thoughtful and considerate.

Cheng Han had only taken a few bites when he suddenly sensed a fluctuation in the control of the Spirit Beast Seal.

A stream of information was transmitted.

It was a message from the Black Cat.

It had been running back and forth in Qinglin City and had discovered new information.

He skillfully deduced the situation.

A chill rose on the top of his head.

An illusion slowly appeared.

This was from the perspective of the Black Cat.

The "live broadcast" showed a bustling street.

Due to the heavy snowfall in the Little Spirit Realm yesterday, the snow on the road was quite thick.

But the cleaning workers, or rather the prisoners in the prison, didn't have time to clean it up.

The Qian family's crystal energy car was slowly driving on the road.

Cheng Han could tell at a glance that this was Qian Qingqing and her father on their way to visit someone.

He murmured softly, "It's now 7 o'clock in the morning. Including the time for breakfast and dressing up, they probably woke up at 5:30."

Cheng Han sighed, "It's winter break now, but you're working so hard."

In the camera.

The perspective of the Black Cat changed.

About a hundred meters away, a feathered beast appeared, and the rider on its saddle was wearing thick winter clothes.

This type of clothing is slightly shorter than a raincoat and is mainly used for warmth and snow protection.

For Qian's father and daughter, they didn't even notice this person at all.

But Cheng Han immediately noticed the problem.

"This person's body moves with the rhythm of the feathered beast, reaching a level of synchronization that is almost instinctual. This is not something that only martial artists can do.

"Although wearing a snow mask, unable to see the face and line of sight, judging from the direction of the head, there is a 90% probability that they are staring at Qian Yiqing's crystal energy car.

Cheng Han chuckled lightly, "It seems that the bait has been set successfully, and it has taken the bait so quickly!"

The next section of the road.

The speculation was confirmed.

The black cat closely followed the crystal energy car, and the camera switched back and forth between the vehicle and the feathered beast.

The vehicle turned a few corners, and the feathered beast also turned a few corners.

The tailing person was very experienced, always maintaining a stable distance and never getting too close.

Most of the time, the feathered beast stayed in the blind spot of the crystal energy car, only occasionally revealing itself to observe the position of the car.

Cheng Han chewed his food and thought to himself, "Are these people trying to select a customer, infiltrate the internal of the tasting event, and then make a move from both inside and outside?"

He gave an evaluation of this plan, "Definitely experienced! This is not their first time committing a crime."

Cheng Han immediately sent an instruction, "Captain, go for a patrol at the General Administration tonight, sneak into the archive room, and look through the files of the major robbery cases."

"Meow~"

The black cat immediately responded.

Cheng Han smiled, "I just wanted to earn some points, but unexpectedly, I can also help the patrol department solve a few old cases. It's a pleasant surprise."

He wanted to find out if the Black Armor Army would receive additional battle merit points for their work in the patrol department.

But after thinking about it, he decided against it.

Cheng Han then connected with the leader of the female group through their soul link and sent a message, "The candidates you provided are very good!"

Qu Xiaoying's voice, full of piety, instantly sounded, "Sir, serving you is my lifelong mission."

Her response was as quick as always, as if she was always waiting for her master's voice.

This group of criminals certainly didn't come knocking on the door by themselves.

Specifically speaking.

After Qu Xiaoying learned some information about the members of the Destruction Corps, she provided a name.

Cheng Han then set up a trap, using Miss Nightingale as a "message broker" to lure the "big fish" onto the hook.

Just like that.

A seamless fishing scheme was successfully set up.

Even if the Black Armor Army conducted a detailed investigation, they would only come to one conclusion - it was a coincidence.

Cheng Han summarized his experience, "As a qualified playwright, the key to directing a seamless drama lies in selecting the right actors.

"Then, just make a few small pushes, and the actors will naturally follow the script.

"If the director interferes too much, it will definitely be a poor play because there will be too many flaws."

No one knew.

While he appeared to be quietly eating, he was actually busy behind the scenes.

Before long.

Cheng Han finished his breakfast, wiped his lips with a tissue, and sighed, "What a busy morning."

However.

Before he officially started his cultivation, he had one more thing to do.

Cheng Han stood up, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes, "If there's something, don't come at me and trouble a servant delivering food. What is this all about!"

He held up a black umbrella, stepped out of the door, and walked in the snow.

The cause of this incident is related to a first-level warrior named 'Chen Xue'an' who was chased to the new dormitory.

This person moved into a three-person residence, and one of the roommates is a warrior from the Third Corps.

Named - Lu Erjin.

This is a quite distinctive name, derived from an animal called the "Erjin Hoofed Deer" in this world.

During a conversation, Lu Erjin learned about Chen Xue'an's experience and took the initiative to do this.

Cheng Han snorted, "This guy's intentions are truly sinister. On the surface, he's standing up for Chen Xue'an, but in reality, he's sowing discord within the Second War Group."

"To think that instead of working hard to earn war merit points to win the year-end evaluation, he's playing these despicable tricks. Is that interesting?"

As he walked under the black umbrella, he attracted many curious glances along the way.

There is no other reason.

Among the soldiers of the Heishan Camp, from the esteemed military leaders to the lowest-ranked soldiers, there are hardly any who use umbrellas on snowy days.

In the eyes of ordinary people, soldiers possess extraordinary strength, so using an umbrella on a snowy day seems somewhat "unmanly."

But Cheng Han does things his own way, completely disregarding the gazes of others.

The onlookers' eyes mostly carried a sense of curiosity, with very few showing disdain.

After all,

Geniuses are always different from ordinary people.

After walking for a while, Cheng Han suddenly had a whimsical idea, "Let's practice some skills along the way."

He lightly waved the black umbrella, and snowflakes fluttered around him, dancing gracefully.

Like a group of elves.

Initially,

It only covered an area of two meters in diameter.

Then,

It expanded to ten meters.

And then,

It increased to thirty meters in one go.

This was an extremely large range.

The falling snow within this area formed a slowly rotating snow tornado.

Such a phenomenon could be seen from a distance.

Anyone who witnessed this scene, whether they were soldiers or servants, were all dumbfounded.

Soldiers who were not on duty in nearby residences all came out to watch.

They could all sense that this was not the use of Qi, but rather the characteristic of ice-based arcane arts.

The range of this phenomenon was so large that this level of power was definitely not small.

Cheng Han seemed to not notice the astonished gazes, just calmly strolling along.

He still held the black umbrella in his right hand.

His gaze had no focus, as if he was contemplating something.

After walking another ten meters,

Cheng Han suddenly recalled a scene from the past when dealing with something strange:

The horn on the forehead of the Ice Demon fiercely collided with a snow pine tree.

"Whoosh!"

The extremely cold air quickly spread, and the tree turned into a beautiful ice tree.

"Bang!"

The Ice Demon bumped into the ice tree again.

This ice tree, which was over ten meters tall, instantly collapsed into a pile of shattered ice.

At this moment,

A massive amount of information surged in Cheng Han's mind, and he suddenly smiled, "So that's how it is."

In the sea of his spiritual consciousness,

The "spirit" end of the Body Tempering Seal rapidly grew, condensing into a new structure.

It looked like a sharp horn.

It also represented—a brand new skill.

Cheng Han blinked, "Let's call it 'Ice Strike,' simple and easy to understand."

In that instant,

The snow tornado suddenly stopped, and the dense snowflakes fell gently.

Cheng Han stopped in his tracks and turned to look at a snow cedar tree several tens of meters away.

Its height is about fifteen meters.

Despite the cold weather, it is still lush with branches and leaves.

This is a very suitable experimental target.

Cheng Han quietly communicated with the spiritual end of the Body Tempering Seal, picked up a black umbrella, and lightly waved it towards the snow cedar.

The next moment.

An anomaly occurred.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a whistling sound.

The accumulated snow on the ground suddenly rose up, forming a snow tornado that swiftly spiraled forward.

"Woo~"

The strong wind howled.

The scene was quite spectacular.

In an instant.

The snow tornado crashed into the snow cedar with a loud bang.

Then.

The snowflakes dispersed.

A crystal-clear ice tree appeared in its place.

Every pine needle, every branch, was like this.

"Crack! Crack!"

The snow cedar collapsed.

Cheng Han nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad."

The ice strike he "stole" from Bing Mei was definitely powerful.

He held up the black umbrella and continued forward.

Completely ignoring the onlookers with horrified expressions.

Soon.

Cheng Han arrived in front of a residential building.

Three people were standing in front of the door.

One of them was Chen Xue'an, who had a look of astonishment on his face.

The other person was Lu Erren, the troublemaker in secret.

At this moment.

Cheng Han appeared with the remaining power of the "tree destruction by ice strike", exuding a strong aura, and both of them fell silent.

He first looked at Chen Xue'an and calmly said, "I wanted to live in a detached house, but I didn't expect you to move once, I must apologize to you."

He felt that internal matters within the Second Battle Group should be resolved internally, why let outsiders take advantage of it?

Chen Xue'an was stunned for a moment and quickly said, "It's okay! I don't mind."

In fact, just a minute ago, he minded so much that he couldn't sleep at night.

But now, he completely let go of his obsession.

Such trivial matters really didn't need to be held onto.

Cheng Han looked at Lu Erren again, his tone disdainful, "You used a mental combat technique earlier to bully the servant who delivered food to me, and now I'm here to stand up for him."

He straightforwardly laid out a condition, "I just comprehended a move, as long as you can withstand this move, this matter will be considered settled."

Lu Erren was dumbfounded.

The power of that strike was quite terrifying, even if he was a second-level warrior, being hit by it would definitely result in serious injuries.

So he didn't want to take it.

But the problem was, there were over a hundred onlookers around now, if he was scared into saying the word "no", wouldn't that be too embarrassing?

Thanks to the reader '神赐GF' for the reward!
