Wen Yu fell silent, then spoke. "Selecting strong individuals..."
"Then why? Why does he want to select strong individuals?"
Wen Yu pursed his lips and shook his head gently, indicating that he didn’t know.
"This requires you to seek the answer yourself..." Lin Haifeng said with a hint of melancholy. After he finished speaking, Wen Yu could only force a bitter smile.
Lin Haifeng was also human, no, he was no longer human, but he was certainly not a god.
Why does the sovereign want to select the sequence?
If he knew, it would indeed be strange.
Thus, this question was neatly pushed back to Wen Yu by Lin Haifeng, and Wen Yu understood how to proceed with his next step.
He needed to send personnel to explore the secrets of the treasure land, using Lin Haifeng and Fran’s intelligence to find some clues.
After figuring out his next steps, Wen Yu bid farewell to Lin Haifeng and stood up to leave.
Outside the door, Li Quan'an and Long Er stood faithfully at attention, their eyes fixed on either side of the secret chamber.
It wasn't until Wen Yu issued the command.
"Have Lahar come to the commander-in-chief's office to see me."
"Yes, my lord."
Li Quan'an took his leave, while Wen Yu followed Long Er outside.
When they reached the door, Long Er opened the car door, but suddenly, a certain scene hidden deep in Wen Yu's memory came rushing back.
It was the immortal emperor's mournful cry...
"Eternal life will not be in sequence one..."
…
"Lord Commander."
As the door opened, Lahar, dressed in military uniform, strode confidently into the command room.
Wen Yu and Fran were discussing yesterday's administrative matters, and upon seeing Lahar arrive, they promptly fell silent. Wen Yu looked up at Lahar.
The familiarity was now almost imperceptible. Lahar appeared upright, handsome, with bright eyes filled with spirit, exuding a strong aura. Wen Yu didn't feel the urge to reminisce about the "glorious past"; he simply gestured for Lahar to take a seat and directly stated his command.
"I need a star wish."
"Anytime, the cooldown from the last time has already passed."
The last time was when Wen Yu sought the eighth soul. Calculating the time, the cooldown for the star wish should have long expired.
In fact, even if the star wish was still in cooldown, it wouldn't matter; Wen Yu's dream fulfillment skill system should be able to remove the cooldown of the star wish skills.
"Let’s begin."
Wen Yu said, and immediately, Lahar's eyes gleamed with light.
…
The process of entering the wish space was something Wen Yu was already very familiar with.
As the familiar dizziness washed over him, when Wen Yu opened his eyes again, he found himself in an endless starry sky.
"State your wish."
A vast voice echoed, and Wen Yu briefly pondered before stating his request.
"I want to know where I can find the sovereign's purpose."
"Cannot be realized..."
The reply from the star wish was straightforward, but it didn't matter; Fran had already discussed a wish list of over thirty items with Wen Yu in advance.
"I want to know where I can find the meaning represented by the sequence."
"Cannot be realized..."
"I want to know..."
"Cannot..."
Dozens of wishes vanished in an instant. As Wen Yu frowned and made yet another wish, the star wish finally offered a response.
"I want to know where I can explore the sovereign's purpose, or secrets, or anything related to the sovereign and the sequence."
This wish was vague and unclear in its instructions; Wen Yu deliberately broadened the search scope of the star wish—just to gather even the slightest hint...
The difference between 0 and 1 was truly difficult to reach.
The star wish remained silent for a while, and just as Wen Yu began to feel some disappointment, the star wish’s voice finally spoke again.
"The cost... 100 million Level 10 Magic Crystals!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
…
The so-called 100 million Level 10 Magic Crystals was, to Wen Yu now, nothing significant.
He quickly paid the fee, and the star wish neatly provided the answer.
