370 The Military Supplies Department’s Counterattack (2)
Mecha masters didn’t have an obvious advantage in this aspect. After becoming a mecha master, one’s lifespan didn’t increase much. It wasn’t much different from the limit of ordinary people. They were all around 150 years old.
These privileged people could extend their lives by decades using biochemical technology, barely reaching 180 years old.
Therefore, the 200-year lifespan limit of a Great Grandmaster among traditional fighters was not very attractive to the privileged class. They all focused their energy on areas such as consciousness transfer in order to obtain eternal life in the field of mecha.
But now, the upper limit of the lifespan of a Celestial had reached 500 years, which was a fatal attraction to the privileged class.
In the absence of a breakthrough in mecha consciousness transfer technology, there would definitely be many privileged classes in the future who would choose to switch to other classes or learn martial arts.
After Ning Shi settled the matters of the Hermit Pavilion, he prepared to leave New Star City. Before he left, he still paid a visit to his master, Old Li.
Although he did not get along with Li Sijia, Ning Shi still respected Old Li very much.
He said to Old Li, “Master, follow me to the Norse Republic Academy. This is the radiation zone after all. It’s not good for you to stay here for a long time.
“Junior Brother is also in the academy. You can move over and supervise his studies up close.”
After Yan Yinfei left, Old Li was indeed very lonely in New Star City, and there was nothing interesting about it.
He thought about it and agreed to go with Ning Shi to live in the academy district.
Ning Shi brought Old Li along and boarded the academy’s earth-level warship. As for Tong Baiming, he had left Yuan City for too long and planned to return to Yuan City directly from New Star City.
The other members of the Celestial Sect also used their own channels to leave New Star City. Among them, the members of the Hermit Pavilion stayed together and Wang Yuanyi taught them how to use the Martial Assistive Device.
They were tasked by Ning Shi with their respective missions. Once they were familiar with the functions of the Martial Assistive Device, they would unsheathe their knives and start killing!
In the City Lord’s Mansion of New Star City, Li Sijia was sitting in the study. A handsome young man stood beside her and reported to her.
“City Lord, Ning Shi, and the others have already left New Star City on the academy’s warship. Old Master Li and Ning Shi are preparing to go to the academy to supervise Young Master’s studies.
“The other members of the Celestial Sect are also preparing to leave New Star City. Should we send people to intercept them? After all, we’ve spent a lot of time and energy on the Celestial Sect.
“If we let them leave just like that, all our previous efforts will be in vain!”
Li Sijia glared at the man. The man immediately bowed and lowered his head with a terrified expression.
Li Sijia paused for a moment before slowly saying, “A week ago, I suffered a loss in front of Ning Shi, so I sent people to investigate Ning Shi’s background.
‘This person is clearly just an ordinary orphan, but he has created miracles time and time again.
‘He was unharmed under the bounty of the Hilda family. In seven days, he had trained his meditation technique from zero to Level 3, and his results were average in the mecha master training course where geniuses gathered. In two months, he had cultivated the Butcher inheritance to the Perfected Great Grandmaster Realm.
‘These impossible things were easily accomplished by him.
‘Do you know what this means?
Li Sijia did not expect the young man to answer. She answered her own question, “This means that behind Ning Shi, there must be a mysterious force or a big shot supporting him.
“I think the reason why the Norse Republic Academy sent a representative to visit us this time is to cover up Ning Shi’s whereabouts. It’s possible that the Norse Republic Academy has already been controlled by the faction behind
Ning Shi.
‘Under such circumstances, we absolutely cannot have a conflict with Ning Shi because of the Celestial Sect.
The young man quickly flattered, ‘City Lord, you see the signs and think thoroughly. I was too hasty just now.”
Li Sijia nodded and said to the young man, “Jian Qm, you have been with me for three years. I favor you very much, sometimes even more than my son.
‘You have to mature as soon as possible and help me deal with more things, understand?
‘New Star City seems to be developing well, but due to our status as radioactive people, we have never been recognized by the interstellar society. Therefore, we are destined not to become a hegemonic power.
“This time, Xiao Fei’s advanced studies are a rare opportunity for us. We might be able to use this opportunity to try to integrate into the interstellar society.
‘Only by connecting with the galaxy can radioactive people truly develop. There is no future for them to be limited to this dilapidated origin planet.
‘After hearing Ning Shi’s words at Old Li’s house that day, I was too emotional. I had no choice. Every time I am in front of Old Li, my emotions will uncontrollably go out of control.
‘After I came back, I analyzed calmly. Ning Shi said that Xiao Fei’s advanced studies quota was in danger.
‘There’s no need for him to lie, so it’s a good thing that Old Li is going to the academy this time. Let him supervise Xiao Fei’s studies. You have to send more people to keep an eye on Xiao Fei and all the students in the training class.
“1f Xiao Fei’s quota is really unstable, when necessary, let the Snake Unit attack again and kill Xiao Fei’s competitor!”
‘Yes, ma’am. I will arrange everything!” Jian Qin replied immediately.
If Ning Shi were here, he would be very surprised to hear the name of the Snake Unit. This was because the Snake Unit was the radioactive group that had massacred Orphanage No. 15 in Sword Shield City.
According to what Old Li had said before, this group of people had already been whipped and confined by Li Sijia. From Li Sijia’s tone, it could be seen that the Snake Unit was simply a knife in Li Sijia’s hands..
