The next morning, the heartbroken Marshal Kress secretly left the military base with his selected elite team.
Ke Jin was completely unaware of this. As usual, he opened his sleepy eyes only after the alarm rang, got up, dressed, washed, ate, opened the card pool, and when everything was ready, he went to open the gate of the courtyard and officially started business.
But the first person who stepped into the courtyard today surprised Ke Jin.
"Major General Leng Yan?" Seeing that familiar stern face, Ke Jin was surprised, then very happy, "You're back?"
"Just got back last night." Although he had only met him a few times, Leng Yan still had a very good impression of Ke Jin. His cold eyebrows softened a little. "I heard from Marshal Gani that you have something to talk to me about?"
"Yes." Ke Jin nodded and scratched his face embarrassedly. "It's not a big deal. Marshal Ghani has already given me a lot of help..."
Ke Jin told Leng Yan about the changes in his card pool a few weeks ago and the fact that Marshal Gani had given him the information about the "Demon King". After listening to him, the other party pondered for a moment and nodded thoughtfully.
"No wonder... Marshal Ghani would give such advice."
Ke Jin looked curious: "What suggestions?"
"Marshal Ghani received an urgent mission last night and left the base this morning. Before he left, he specifically asked me to tell you something." Leng Yan looked seriously at the young envoy in front of him and said in a deep voice.
"He advises you to leave here as soon as possible and stay away from the Thirteenth Galaxy."
Ke Jin was shocked. Marshal Ghani actually gave such a suggestion. Could it mean...
"Is there a problem with the 'Devil'?" Ke Jin asked worriedly.
"Yes." Leng Yan nodded slowly, and then briefly explained the secret synthesis of artificial superpower card pools by many families. "Although there is no evidence yet, my intuition tells me that this matter is closely related to the 'Demon King'."
Artificial superpower card pool? It actually worked?
As a card envoy, Ke Jin certainly knew what this meant. After being shocked, he quickly thought of one person - Ning Qiyuan!
When Ning Qiyuan was constantly annexing card pools in Chikongzhou, wasn't it just like what Leng Yan said, "constantly merging pools to screen out high-quality card pools"? So that was their idea! Later, they suddenly gave up the card pool and left Azure Star. Perhaps it was because their batch of experimental card pools failed...
Uh, I wonder if their failure has anything to do with my battle with the "Demon King" in the card pool...
"If this matter is really related to the 'Devil King', the emergence of the artificial supernatural card pool may mean that the 'Devil King' has regained his power. According to his habit of revenge, he will most likely come to trouble you after he comes out. Although we can send people to protect you 24 hours a day, but..." As if remembering something, Major General Leng Yan's eyes dimmed, and his cold voice was tinged with bitterness.
"But the 'Demon King's' methods are too treacherous. In the past, there have been cases where well-protected people have died in front of us..."
Ke Jin took a deep breath and remained silent for a long time.
"But artificial superpower card pools have appeared in all twelve galaxies of the Federation, which means that there are spies of the 'Devil' everywhere," he said slowly, "It seems that I can't go anywhere..."
"No." Leng Yan interrupted Ke Jin, "You can go somewhere farther."
"Farther?" Ke Jin was a little confused, but he quickly reacted and looked at Major General Leng Yan in surprise, "You mean..."
"Imperial Galaxy." A familiar voice suddenly interrupted. Ke Jin turned around and saw Oloyi walking beside him. The blond youth's eyes swept over Leng Yan, who nodded slightly in greeting. This made Oloyi more certain that Marshal Gani had indeed recognized and confirmed his identity when he came to see Ke Jin.
——That’s why the marshal suggested that Ke Jin seek refuge in the Imperial Galaxy.
Oloy retracted his gaze, looked at Ke Jin, and repeated it again.
"Let's go to the Imperial System," he said, seriously and solemnly.
"Go there, you'll be absolutely safe, I promise."
***
Ke Jin finally agreed to the proposal of Major General Leng Yan and Ouloi.
According to the military's investigation, there had been no signs of the Demon King's activities in the Imperial Galaxy before. It was extremely unlikely that he would go to an unfamiliar galaxy to seek revenge in the early stages of his recovery. Moreover, Orloy was from the Imperial Galaxy and was very familiar with the environment there. With him accompanying him, Ke Jin would be able to get better placement in the Imperial Galaxy, which was at least better than starting from scratch and fighting alone.
There is also a very important hidden condition - Ke Jin's system mission on the planet Mobis is almost completed. He estimates that in another week, he will be able to achieve the goal of "upgrading the new card pool three levels in two months." According to the system's recent pattern of releasing tasks, Ke Jin guessed that the next stage of the mission is likely to be to go to a new galaxy.
Just as Ke Jin expected, a week later, the new task released by the system was upgraded from "going to a new planet" to "going to a new galaxy", and going to the Imperial Galaxy was inevitable.
The card pool in Mobis City naturally had to remain open. At the suggestion of Major General Leng Yan, Ke Jin transferred the management rights of the card pool to the Mobis City Hall, asking them to hire card masters to manage it. The military would also send personnel to help maintain it. After all, this card pool was also extremely important to the military.
Ke Jin also told his friends on the Blue Star that he was going to the Imperial Galaxy. Everyone was naturally shocked by this, but they also expressed their blessings. Only Qi said "take care". Ke Jin guessed that he had guessed something, after all, Qi knew about the "grudge" between himself and the "Devil King".
Ke Jin also asked Qi and Xiaojiu if they wanted to go to the Imperial Galaxy with him. They were a little hesitant and said they would think about it before giving a reply.
After dealing with a series of things, that night, Ke Jin finally had time to sit in the study and placed the file card given to him by Marshal Ghani in front of him.
After the light effect of the card activation faded, a thick file fell on the table. I opened the brown hard cover and the first page was a photo of the "Demon King" -
The other person looked like a normal human boy, except that he was exceptionally handsome, with purple eyes, silver hair, and pale skin. Although he had a smile on his lips, his gaze was cold, and no emotion could be seen in his eyes when he looked into the camera.
Under this photo, there is a sentence marked:
[Not human, not a card spirit, race unknown, self-proclaimed as the 'God of the Card Pool'...]
"The God of the Card Pool?" Ke Jin felt very strange and muttered to himself, "This guy is quite childish... Even if he is a god, he must be an evil god..."
He continued to look through the files, which detailed all the events involving the "Devil" in chronological order. As Ke Jin read them, his expression was sometimes astonished, and sometimes frowned. When he finished reading the last page, the two-hour limit was just over. The file book turned into tiny streams of light and disappeared from the table. Ke Jin leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh.
The "devil" is more dangerous and difficult to deal with than he imagined.
Ke Jin is a non-indigenous resident who traveled through time, so he knew that among the federal galaxies, the thirteenth galaxy is very special. It was not known to people for a long time like the other twelve galaxies in the federation, but it only came into people's sight for the first time more than ten years ago.
The entrance to the thirteenth galaxy is a special wormhole that has never been opened before. It was opened suddenly more than ten years ago. The mysterious new galaxy suddenly appeared, and the heads of the twelve galaxies of the Federation immediately joined forces to explore it. They found that there was no sign of human activity here, and there were undeveloped card pools everywhere, most of which were supernatural card pools. It was a natural treasure trove.
Not long after, the exploration team was surprised to find a young boy on a black planet in the thirteenth galaxy.
He has the same appearance as humans, but more handsome and more extraordinary. He knows nothing about the outside world and is as curious and innocent as a child. Because he has no hostility and shows kindness and friendliness, the explorers are also very kind to him and, at their request, take him out of the thirteenth galaxy.
——No one expected that this action was equivalent to an ignorant person opening Pandora's box, and the real disaster soon came.
The first ominous sign was the sudden conflict within the exploration team.
Although they come from different galaxies, the members of the exploration team are all adventurous scientists and explorers. They have common ideals and pursuits and have always gotten along very happily. But for some reason, cracks gradually appeared in the originally harmonious relationship between the teammates, and eventually evolved into irreconcilable differences and contradictions.
It was no longer possible to work together and coexist peacefully, so the exploration team ended the exploration early and went back to report their gains to their superiors.
Perhaps the harvest was beyond imagination, the leaders of some galaxies became greedy and wanted to secretly control the Thirteenth Galaxy, but they were soon discovered, and cracks appeared in the originally solid federal alliance.
And this is just the beginning.
The disagreements soon turned into quarrels, insults, and accusations, which led to the breakdown of the federal alliance. As relations between the two sides became increasingly bad, they eventually... turned into war.
This was something that had never happened in the history of the Federation Galaxy, but it actually happened in just half a year. The war lasted for ten years, and six of the original twelve Galaxy leaders died, a loss rate of half, which was a huge loss.
But not everyone was blinded by the war. In this sudden, fanatical and cruel war, there were also people who remained valuable sobriety and calm.
——The current supreme commander of the military, Marshal Or, is one of the calm ones.
He had sensed something was wrong very early on. The start of this war was very abrupt. Although the root cause of the conflicts between galaxies could be defined as "human greed and selfishness", conflicts of interest had always existed between galaxies. He always felt that it was too dramatic and strange that they suddenly escalated to such a serious level.
Relying on a vague intuition, Marshal Orr used his powerful connections to secretly contact senior commanders of the military forces of various galaxies, begging them to assist him in conducting a secret investigation.
Although they had their doubts in their hearts, the senior commanders who were pleading still agreed reluctantly for the sake of Marshal Orr and secretly launched an investigation.
You don't know until you investigate. Once you investigate, everyone is shocked - all kinds of evidence show that the heads of the twelve star systems and some of the top leaders have signs of mental pollution and subconscious invasion! The investigation continued to deepen, and in the end all the evidence pointed to the same person - the boy brought out from the thirteenth star system by the exploration team, the "Demon King".
At that time, the "Devil King" was a famous figure in the Federation Galaxy. He called himself the "God of Card Pool" and had the ability to transform ordinary card pools into special card pools. Moreover, he knew the distribution of card pools on various planets in the Thirteenth Galaxy very well. The twelve leaders all vied to show their goodwill to him, hoping that he could work for their own galaxy - with his help, it would be better for them to control the Thirteenth Galaxy.
But who could have imagined that the heads of state claimed to be hunters, but in reality they were just prey being manipulated by the "devil".
The evidence was irrefutable, and in view of the fact that the heads of state had been bewitched, the military secretly issued the highest level of arrest warrants, assembled the most elite forces of the military, and set up a dragnet, but the "devil" got wind of it and escaped in advance.
The "Devil" controls all the supernatural card pools in the 13th galaxy, and has endless strange cards on his body. Wherever he flees, disasters will occur there because of his arrival. The military has been pursuing him relentlessly. After three years and countless heavy costs, they finally tricked him into a deadly trap.
Unfortunately, the last stand still did not completely kill the "Devil", but only put him on the verge of death. After being seriously injured, the "Devil" fled into the depths of the 13th Galaxy, and the wormhole closed, leaving only a tiny gap. The military could not go deep into the 13th Galaxy on a large scale, but could not leave it alone, so they drew troops from various galaxies to garrison on the edge planet of the 13th Galaxy, Morbis, to monitor the movements of the Demon at all times.
After that, for seven years, there was no more power fluctuation in the depths of the Thirteenth Galaxy. Some people speculated that the Demon King was dead, but more people believed that he was just dormant and recovering from his injuries. It was not until the last one or two years that unusual movements appeared in the depths of the Thirteenth Galaxy, and the military's views were unified.
The "devil" has shown signs of recovery and may make a comeback at any time.
The archives also recorded some testimonies from witnesses who had come into contact with the Devil. Everyone described the "Devil" as "paranoid", "crazy", "vengeful" and other words. This made Ke Jin more convinced that it was right to go far away and avoid the limelight - he was just a commoner, but he had offended the "Devil" seriously. If the other party really came back, he would definitely pick on him first.
Thinking of this, Ke Jin sighed heavily again.
...But if the "Devil" is really so vengeful, will it be useful for me to hide in the Imperial Galaxy?
However, no matter what the answer to this question is, Ke Jin's decision will not change. After coordinating all matters on Mobis, he finally set off and went to the Imperial Galaxy with Orloy...
