Chapter 874: This Crappy Array Thinks It Can Stop Me?
"...In the end, One-Punch Man stayed behind to cover my retreat, and Schuck and Beta flew me out of the Divine Civilization. I heard people say that the Forbidden Land is full of people like me, so I came here."
Fang Jueyu glanced inside and said, "Is showing off illegal here?"
"Huh?" The two of them looked confused. What kind of strange question is that?
But at this moment, they couldn't wait to delay as long as possible, and once the news of Ben Todeng appearing here was reported, their task would be over.
"Hey! Actually, I didn't do anything too outrageous," Fang Jueyu sighed deeply, feigning a somber look. "You know, showing off is a virtue. In the Divine Civilization, my showing off skills are top-notch, but they thought I was overdoing it. This era doesn't need a king of show-offs, so they locked me up, restricting my personal freedom, which is why I had to take up arms and escape!"
"As for that fat lady I kicked into the ditch, she was just a cover!"
Concluding his lengthy monologue, Fang Jueyu took a deep breath. "Don't worry, the people of the Divine Civilization won't easily leave their civilization. At most, they'll send some young people to catch me back. You don't need to be too afraid!"
After hearing Fang Jueyu's words, the guards of the Forbidden Land showed thoughtful expressions, extracting quite a bit of information from his speech.
Their apprehension about Ben Todeng stemmed from two points: one was Ben Todeng's own dangerous nature, which might disrupt the original order of the Forbidden Land, and the second was whether he would bring any trouble with him.
It was now almost confirmed that there were quite a few demigods in the Divine Civilization. If these people mobilized en masse to hunt down Ben Todeng, and Ben Todeng hid in the Forbidden Land, wouldn't that redirect their attack target right here?
Now they know that the true masters of the Divine Civilization would not come out, and as for those young people, although they are quite experienced, with so many demigods in the Forbidden Land, they wouldn't dare act rashly. Even a couple of demigod elders would be just minor troubles.
But the first half of his statement only strengthened their firm resolve not to let Ben Todeng in.
What is this Divine Civilization? A place teeming with show-off freaks! The young people of the Divine Civilization are just increasingly better at putting on an act, and who knows how many times they've disguised a pig as a tiger. In the boy band of the Divine Civilization, they are all such people.
It's imaginable how prevalent the culture of showing off is in the Divine Civilization. Someone who could be arrested and detained for showing off must be the fighter jet among the show-offs, already at the level of a show-off king, right? If such a person enters the Forbidden Land, how disastrous would that be?
"Alright, can I go in now?" Fang Jueyu put on an impatient look.
"Mr. Ben Todeng, please wait a moment longer, we still need to verify your identity, please cooperate with us!" They hadn't received any instructions from above, so they absolutely couldn't let this dangerous figure in.
Although the Forbidden Land is full of dangerous individuals, this person's level of danger obviously exceeded manageable limits.
"Are you implying that I'm not qualified enough?" Fang Jueyu's face turned cold, and a pressing aura swept toward them.
Even though all of their realms were at the Controller level, the disparity in strength was indescribable, and at that moment, they actually felt like they were going to suffocate.
"Don't think I don't understand your rules here, anyone who's wanted is eligible to enter, or are you suggesting that my wanted level isn't high enough?"
"No, no, no! Mr. Ben Todeng, you are our guest of Lord Siria, how could we think you are not qualified?" A Martial Artist hurriedly said, "But since you're from the Divine Civilization, we don't have a good assessment of your information and need some time."
"Oh, that's simple, it's just that I'm not famous enough in the cosmic civilizations!" Fang Jueyu laughed, "How about this, I'll go bomb a few other civilizations as a token of entry, will one cosmic nation suffice?"
"O...one cosmic nation?" They were dumbfounded upon hearing Fang Jueyu's words. Threatening to bomb a cosmic nation at the drop of a hat? How many cosmic nations are there in the entire cosmic civilization? Even the bigwigs of the Forbidden Land have never had such a precedent of bombing a cosmic nation, right?
"Ruthless! Truly ruthless!" Regardless of whether this Ben Todeng could actually do it, to say such things so casually indicates that he truly is a ruthless villain who regards life as insignificant.
If he weren't from the Divine Civilization, the Forbidden Land might have actually welcomed someone like him. It would be like providing free advertising to the Forbidden Land and boosting its appeal.
When the time comes, fugitives from across the universe would gather here, the accumulated power might even be enough to contend with the entire Cosmic Federation, and by then, the territory might even expand.
"No, no, no! Mr. Ben Todeng, there's no need for that, we all believe you are one of us!" They quickly said with a forced smile.
Destroying a cosmic nation is no easy feat. If Ben Todeng really attempted it, he would surely be left with some bad memories of them, and who knows when feeling unhappy, he might just kill them.
"Then what do you want me to do? You're not letting me in, and when I say I'll prove myself, you tell me it's unnecessary?" Fang Jueyu now realized that they were probably stalling for time, and the higher-ups of the Forbidden Land had likely issued an order against him.
"Oh, and by the way, I heard there's another way to get into the Forbidden Land, and that is to kill you all and then let myself in!" A sinister smile appeared on Fang Jueyu's bearded face.
Swish! The faces of the fortress guards turned pale. Judging by the aura earlier, even if all of them joined forces, Ben Todeng could probably just slap them away.
"There's news from Lord Mu Sha's side! He has already informed Lord Dorafala, who will be arriving soon. We now have temporary authority to close the fortress, we absolutely can't let Ben Todeng in!"
This news was like a divine weapon descending from heaven for them, and the guards exchanged glances before immediately activating the "Starry Sky Dome" control device. This thing concerns the very foundation of the Forbidden Land, and both opening and closing require high-level authorization.
"Buzz buzz..." Energy from the "Starry Sky Dome" circulated and a force shot towards Fang Jueyu.
"Damn! A sneak attack on me!" Fang Jueyu immediately pulled out a shield of the Divine Weapon level. Although the "Starry Sky Dome" isn't an attack-type array, its automatic defense capabilities are no joke.
"Bang!" Fang Jueyu's hands tingled, and his body was knocked back thousands of meters.
"He's actually fine!" The main strength of the Starry Sky Dome lies in its defense. Its offensive strength is not great, but against Controller level martial artists, it should be able to cause heavy damage. But it only repelled Ben Todeng without causing substantial harm.
Siria was about to get involved, but Fang Jueyu gave him a look indicating not to interfere.
"What are you all trying to say? Is the Forbidden Land's way of welcoming guests by their mother?" Fang Jueyu returned to stand before the "Starry Sky Dome" but was stopped by a solid barrier.
"Sorry, Mr. Ben Todeng, that's the order from our fortress commander. You are indeed too dangerous, and we can't bear the risk of letting you in. Please find another place to settle!"
"Hmph!" Fang Jueyu showed a playful smile, "Do you think you can stop me, Ben Todeng? With this pathetic array?"
