Chapter 865 Zhao Ji's Gift to Qiu Tu (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Having spent so many years with Zhao Ji, Qiu Tu has a certain understanding of her personality.

Her tragic experiences from childhood made her a free spirit. Therefore, unless there were special circumstances, she would never allow herself to be imprisoned.

Previously, Qiu Tu and she were the ones who needed to infiltrate the "Destroyed Royal City," but now Qiu Tu is about to release her, yet she disagrees, clearly indicating that there are other reasons behind it.

With that thought in mind, Qiu Tu's mind raced as he pondered what Zhao Ji wanted to do.

A moment later, a thought flashed through his mind, and he asked, "Sister Zhaoji, you're not trying to break my Cataclysmic Ability, are you?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji, whose true feelings had been exposed, fell silent.

She remained silent for two seconds before giving a cool "hmm," confirming Qiu Tu's guess.

To be honest, Qiu Tu was just guessing casually and didn't really believe it was true.

As it turned out, when Zeji actually confirmed his guess, he was even more shocked.

He asked with some surprise, "Can it really be cracked?"

The moment Qiu Tu asked the question, he reflexively regretted it.

As expected, upon hearing Qiu Tu's question, the arrogant Wang Zhaoji snorted and then immediately put on airs, saying, "It's just a cataclysmic ability."

"Even if the rank is higher, the ability is more complex, and the structure is more ingenious, it is still effortless for me to crack it."

Qiu Tu:
He knows it!

Regardless of the truth, Zhao Ji will never miss an opportunity to show off.

So, after being tricked by Zhao Ji, Qiu Tu stopped dwelling on the matter.

He said, "In that case, I'll wait for Sister Zhaoji's good news."

After saying that, he said, "Then I'll temporarily use your face to gather some information."

At this moment, Zhao Ji seemed to have fallen into the process of breaking the power of the cataclysm again, so she just gave a faint "hmm" and ignored Qiu Tu.

Zhao Ji ignored Qiu Tu, and Qiu Tu didn't care either.

He reached out and scratched his chest, feeling the softness of Zhao Ji's skin. Before Zhao Ji could react, he quickly explained, "Zhao Ji-nee! I'm just not used to wearing a bra, it's a little itchy! I'm sorry!"

After saying that, he quickly ran away.

At this moment, in the "Punishment God Realm", Zhao Ji's face turned red and white, and she was even somewhat speechless.

Perhaps because the "Punishment God Realm" is Qiu Tu's body, Zhao Ji felt that her perception of Qiu Tu's emotions was many times more acute when she was in it.

Just now, Qiu Tu clearly conveyed emotions to me such as "doing something bad/playing a prank," "secretly taking advantage," and "so soft." There was not a trace of shyness, embarrassment, or surprise from accidentally touching Yue's breasts.

'This guy'

Watching the streets rushing past outside, Zhao Ji snorted softly, deciding to wait until she had broken through the "Punishment God's Domain" before going out to properly deal with Qiu Tu.

At this moment, seeing that Zhao Ji did not pursue the matter or even scold him, Qiu Tu breathed a sigh of relief.

As the saying goes: You can't touch a tiger's backside; you can't touch Lady Zhaoji's breasts.

He knew this principle by heart, but when the wonderful thing was right in front of him, he still couldn't help but want to dance on the edge of a knife.

When he was courting death, Qiu Tu only sought pleasure. Only after he had done so did he remember that the one trapped in the "Punishment God Realm" was an ultimate cheat who even a high-level god-king's talent would look down upon. If he really angered her, Qiu Tu would indeed be unilaterally crushed if he didn't perish.

'And this time it seems they didn't even count to three?'

'Did I fool you? You think it's no big deal?'

Or... has she already gotten used to it?

Qiu Tu didn't know if it was just his imagination, but he felt that his relationship with Zhao Ji was getting closer and closer without him realizing it.

Especially after he "rescued" her from Jasmine's domain, Qiu Tu felt that Zhao Ji's attitude towards him seemed to be better and more tolerant.

'Could it be that I misunderstood Jasmine? Has she actually been saying good things about me all this time?'

While analyzing the relationship between Zhao Ji and Jasmine in his mind, Qiu Tu also began to look for traces of the "Temple of Order" that had planted in the "Destroyed Royal City".

As the most destructive of the six pathways, the "Temple of Order" has always paid close attention to the "Royal Court of Destruction." Over the years, they have sent wave after wave of agents to the "Royal Court of Destruction."

Among them are deities of the "path of order" and god-kings of the "path of destruction" who have come to the "temple".

Deep within the "Court of Destruction," they formed a dense intelligence network, continuously providing the "Temple" with information about the "Court of Destruction."

However, for some reason, after the "Destruction Tyrant" disregarded the objections of all the high-ranking god-kings and forcibly came to the "Eternal Continent - West", their intelligence network lost contact with the "Temple".

Regarding this matter, the higher-ups of the "Temple" have three guesses.

First, the "Destroying Royal Court" had known about the existence of this intelligence network for years, but deliberately allowed it to go unchecked in order to lull the "Temple" into a false sense of security.

Now that the "Destroy the Royal Court" is about to do something big, they've decided to seize this intelligence hub in one fell swoop.

Secondly, after the "Destruction Royal Court" arrived in the "Eternal World - West", the "Immortal Triumvirate" launched an attack in coordination and released a white mist that permeated the entire "Eternal World - West".

Because this white mist has the effect of isolating communication and mental energy, this intelligence network is unable to transmit information to the outside world. Therefore, this has led to the current situation.

According to the analysis of the higher-ups at the "Temple", these two possibilities are the most likely.

Even so, a very large number of God-Kings still raised a third possibility: that the intelligence network of the "Destroy the Royal Court" might have been infiltrated, or that someone had betrayed them.

This is why the entire intelligence network was uprooted or stopped transmitting intelligence to the "Temple".

This possibility is relatively small, but it cannot be completely ruled out.

Therefore, Qiu Tu could not directly meet the members of this intelligence outpost, but had to first understand the current situation.

This is also why he didn't leave any clues for this intelligence outpost to come looking for him: he needed to conduct independent reconnaissance and confirmation first to ensure that he wouldn't fall into the enemy's trap.

And so, Qiu Tu began to wander aimlessly in the world of "Destroyed Royal City," observing the situation and searching for clues about intelligence outposts.

The sky above the "Destroyed Royal City" was leaden gray, with occasional wisps of black mist billowing by. The streets were dilapidated, with broken stone pillars and collapsed temples everywhere, exuding an aura of desolation and decay. Qiu Tu followed the ruined main road, traversing the ruined streets and bypassing the collapsed temples, covering three entire cities before finally discovering the first coded message left by the intelligence outpost.

According to the classified intelligence that Qiu Tu could see, this intelligence network should have a total of 21 deities.

The person in charge of the entire intelligence network was a god-king codenamed "Old Smoker." The remaining twenty people were also divided into three ranks, named after the sun, moon, and stars respectively.

The code that Qiu Tu saw this time was left by a "Moon" level nail.

Before carrying out this mission, Qiu Tu had already received specialized spy training and memorized the different meanings represented by the various details of the codes.

Therefore, upon first seeing the organization's code, Qiu Tu immediately deciphered its meaning. 'Outpost destroyed, danger, month-level?'

Looking at the keywords displayed on the code, Qiu Tu's mind raced as he pieced them together.

'Does this mean their intelligence base in this city has been destroyed, and the situation is now critical?'

Thinking this, Qiu Tu continued walking casually, a thoughtful expression appearing in his eyes.

If that's the case, then it proves that the second guess is no longer possible.

After all, if the main reason for the loss of contact between the intelligence network and the "temple" was the "white mist," then the intelligence network should not have been destroyed.

If it's been destroyed now, it can only be because it was discovered by the "Destruction Tyrant" or because there was a traitor within its ranks.

'What a terrible job.'

Thinking this through, and to avoid being discovered by someone with ulterior motives, Qiu Tu did not linger in this area for long, but instead walked away directly.

After leaving the third city, Qiu Tu continued towards the heart of the "Destroyed Royal City".

Soon, he arrived at the fourth satellite city.

This time, he saw the code again.

That code seems to have come from the same person as the code in the previous city.

Moreover, this code also used a special method to leave behind several key messages: Traitor! Danger! Run!
Upon seeing the message on the code, Qiu Tu frowned slightly.

'traitor?'

As Qiu Tu mentally pondered the information revealed by the coded message, he felt a headache coming on.

To be honest, the third possibility was what he hated most. After all, once a traitor appears in an intelligence agency, according to the agency's principles, the entire line, and even the entire intelligence network, is essentially rendered useless.

After all, no one can be certain whether the traitor leaked all the other people's information, or to what extent.

Given the risk of exposure, former intelligence personnel will no longer be suitable to continue their mission and must be evacuated in an orderly manner.

This means that the intelligence network is almost completely useless, and Qiu Tu has to rebuild it from scratch. This is a nearly impossible task.

After all, a robust intelligence network is effective because each of its intelligence personnel is at a key node in the enemy's intelligence network.

For example, the old smoker went to great lengths to arrange for an intelligence agent to serve as a steward in the "tyrant's" mansion.

If that intelligence agent escapes, it will be difficult to plant another mole in the near future.

"This is really troublesome."

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but click his tongue.

'I wonder to what extent this intelligence network has been damaged now.'

'If only I could have a few useful talents whose identities hadn't been discovered.'

Just then, as Qiu Tu was pondering this, he suddenly heard Zhao Ji's soft hum in his ear.

Upon seeing this, Qiu Tu quickly and quietly left the coded area.

After walking through two streets in a winding path, Qiu Tu stopped.

He looked around to make sure no one was following him, then breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Why did Sister Zhaoji snort like that? What happened?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji, who was still in the "Punishment God Realm," coldly replied, "It's nothing."

"I regret researching your 'cataclysmic ability'."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu had a huge question mark pop into his head: ?
"why?"

Upon hearing Qiu Tu's question, Zhao Ji coldly replied, "Because... I discovered that in the end, I only cracked a part of your cataclysmic ability."

Qiu Tu blinked, not quite understanding what Zhao Ji was trying to express.

Just then, Zehime spoke.

She said, "Therefore, after only deciphering a portion of the rules of the 'Divine Realm of Punishment,' I was unable to learn your cataclysmic abilities."

"However, it helped you improve and upgrade your disaster recovery capabilities."

Consider it a gift for you.

Qiu Tu was stunned upon hearing Zhao Ji's words.

His mouth slowly opened wide, his jaw almost dropping to the ground.

What did he hear?
Have they improved and upgraded the "Divine Realm of Punishment"?

is that a lie?

Thinking this, Qiu Tu couldn't help but look at Zhao Ji, who was still trapped in the "Punishment God Realm".

If he remembered correctly, it seemed that Zhao Ji hadn't even been in the "Punishment God's Realm" for a full day.

As a result, this helped him upgrade his "catastrophic capabilities"?

What terrifying talent!

This woman shouldn't be a show-off, she should just be a cheater!
No! Qiu Tu himself is also overpowered, but he still can't compare to Zhao Ji!

Seeing Qiu Tu's shocked expression, Zhao Ji's lips curled up slightly, but she quickly suppressed it.

She composed herself, her expression becoming calm and aloof, and then said,

"Aren't you curious about how I upgraded your 'Cataclysm' ability?"

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu knew that Zhao Ji was trying to show off again. So, he readily asked, "Sister Zhao Ji, what upgrade did you give to this 'Punishment God Realm'?"

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Zhao Ji said expressionlessly, "You only need to slightly adjust the catastrophic equation of the 'Divine Realm of Punishment' according to the memories I gave you, and you can directly upgrade the 'Divine Realm of Punishment' to a 'God King Skill'."

"This will bring about a radical change in its capabilities."

"For example, the improved 'Divine Realm of Punishment' can now hold up to five prisoners, instead of just one, for you to choose from."

"For example, the improved 'Divine Realm of Punishment' no longer requires imprisoning criminals in order to transform into him."

Upon hearing this, Qiu Tu's eyes lit up slightly. "What conditions are required?"
