The crowd gasped in astonishment. In just a few days, more changes had occurred in Longmen than in the previous months, causing the residents of Longmen to gasp in surprise every day.

The fright they experienced was greater than usual...

Inside the car, Arthur looked at the robot with surprise and asked, "An alchemical doll?"

Although Arthur is very interested in technological products, his knowledge is limited. For example, robots in science fiction novels are clearly not within his scope of knowledge.

"Similar, yet very different," Fang Rui explained simply.

Hearing this contradictory statement, Arthur tilted his head. Similar, how could they be so different?

The expressions of the others were similar to Arthur's, all filled with doubt regarding Fang Rui's explanation.

Fang Rui had no intention of continuing to explain, after all, it would be a very troublesome thing to make a group of people living in the Middle Ages understand what robots were all about.

Similarly, it would be troublesome, or rather, difficult to explain clearly, to a group of wizards what robots are all about.

Having no time for self-inflicted troubles, Fang Rui looked to both sides...

Police come here to collect information, such as the situation inside the bank and the number of injured, because of a crime.

When the police arrive, they need to resolve the traffic congestion, since walking or cycling takes too long and some information might be lost, such as witnesses leaving the area.

With that in mind, Fang Rui stopped being anxious and waited for the traffic police to guide the car away from there.

However, instead of police cars, a drone arrived.

Few officers in the Guard Department use drones, partly because drones are expensive, and they are not used unless in special circumstances.

Swire is the only one who uses drones for all sorts of trivial matters, which highlights his wealth.

Four drones were parked at the intersection, each drone pointing at one of the intersections...

"Stop the car..." A loud voice came from the drone, and all the cars at the intersection stopped.

Such coordination, without the slightest sign of disorder, shows that these people have encountered this situation before and have experience in dealing with it.

"Turn left..." came the voice from another drone...

With the drone's guidance, the traffic jam eased somewhat, and Fang Rui took action again...

Meanwhile, Swire, who was observing the situation using a drone, spotted a car coming into view...

"This car... I seem to recognize it."

Upon hearing Swire's voice, a nearby police officer turned to look at the vehicle. After examining it for a moment, the officer said, "If I remember correctly, this license plate belongs to the car that Penguin Logistics blew up last night..."

After Penguin Logistics returned to Longmen, the already bustling city became even more lively.

Due to traffic congestion, a chase ensued, and instead, they engaged in a fierce firefight with guns drawn...

Many cars were "lucky" enough to be caught in the crossfire.

Penguin Logistics has already spent millions in losses recently, which means that a certain penguin is rich and doesn't care about the trouble caused by Texas and others.

Anyone else would have undoubtedly fired Texas and the others.

"The car that was blown up is now standing right in front of me, completely intact."

Shi Huaiya seemed to be deep in thought. If they were gang members, they wouldn't be so stupid; they would change their license plates.

In other words, the person who refurbished the car should be someone else. The residents of Lungmen are very clear about the rules of Lungmen, and ordinary people will not touch stolen goods.

In other words...

"They are from other countries."

Nowadays, there are a lot of people from other countries in Lungmen, most of whom are here to participate in the competition. It's normal for a few of them to be interested in cars.

"Do me a favor, control a drone to follow it."

Pointing to a car on the screen, Swire gave this instruction, her intuition telling her that there was something wrong with the car.

As for why she had such thoughts, that's a strange question...

She looked at the person sitting in the driver's seat on the screen. From the drone's perspective, it was impossible to see the driver's thoughts; only the driver's chest area was visible.

"It feels familiar."

As she spoke, her attention returned to directing traffic; she needed to resolve the traffic jam as quickly as possible and then gather information to return to the Guard Bureau.

The Royal Guard Bureau has been extremely busy lately. The cells are overflowing with prisoners brought back by guard robots and officers, but crimes of all sizes continue to occur one after another...

Especially those cases that are problematic, some of which have a hidden mastermind behind them.

As to who the mastermind is, Wei Yanwu and others have already identified a target: the Imperial Guard Bureau is one of the members who carried out the arrest plan.

Even when there are important cases to handle, daily chores cannot be neglected.

In other words, if she doesn't quickly resolve routine cases, she will miss the crucial operation to catch the mastermind behind it all.

She didn't want to be left out of the operation that both Changfenlong and Hoshiguma were participating in...

On the other side, Fang Rui glanced at the rearview mirror and saw a drone following him.

Without any attempt to conceal her intentions, she openly and honestly told Fang Rui about being "stalked."

"Is it Swire?" Fang Rui guessed that Swire had seen him through the drone's camera, which was why she sent the drone to follow him.

After all, his identity was very special. In Swire's eyes, he was a behemoth, a behemoth that could easily destroy Lungmen.

Now that we've discovered the behemoth is about to do something, how could we not keep an eye on it?

"Who?" Arthur asked in confusion.

"It's alright. If there's no traffic jam ahead, we'll be out of the city in half an hour."

Fang Rui changed the subject, "Do we need to find a target to test the car's combat capabilities?"

"Target?" Arthur continued to ask, puzzled.

"In the wilderness, there are numerous Originium Bugs. These bugs are very useful testing machines. Some people use Originium Bugs to test the power of weapons and their personal combat strength."

"Give it a try!" Arthur didn't refuse; he was equally curious about how amazing the car was.

After all, he was involved in the modification of the car, so it would be a lie to say he wasn't curious.

Just like when he finished modifying his first flying car, he would take it out for a spin to satisfy himself.

On the way out of the city, Fang Rui saw a few people who seemed rather strange.

Normal humans, or more precisely, humans in the world of Terra, do not have the smell of the sea. The only people who do have the smell of the sea are members of the Deep Sea Church. These people walk openly in the streets, disguising themselves as normal humans...

That's quite interesting.

Fang Rui squinted. After becoming a god of the Sea Si, he discovered that he had found another way to identify the Deep Sea Church: the Sea Si network...

If any "HaiSi" registered in the HaiSi network appears near Fang Rui, he will sense it.

He can also connect to nearby "units" and control the sea creatures.

In other words, Fang Rui can control the Hai Si of Lungmen.

"So..." Fang Rui withdrew his gaze and looked at the changing traffic lights ahead, "Should I get involved?"

After tilting his head and thinking for a while, Fang Rui ultimately did not issue any orders to Hai Si. These people were not Hai Si, but merely humans with Hai Si power.

Why? Because a normal Haisi would unconditionally execute Fang Rui's orders, no matter how far apart they are...

For example, Hai Si, who was captured on land, began to break out of prison after receiving Fang Rui's orders, attempting to return to the ocean.

However, the humans who fused with Hai Si's power refused his orders and even kidnapped Hai Si to use as his henchmen...

Humanity's civil wars should be left to humanity to handle.

With this in mind, Fang Rui prepared to "rescue" the Pure Sealings and prevent them from being drawn into the war.

As he spoke, Fang Rui's gaze shifted again, locking onto a few people...

One of them was a carefree and unrestrained young woman, who strolled along the street carrying a wine jug, standing out from the crowd...

One of them is a young man with a stable temperament. He looks young but has a sense of maturity. This contradictory temperament makes him very eye-catching.

The other person's presence seemed elusive, appearing and disappearing intermittently, which looked rather strange...

Three fragments of the Year Beast...

And they are the top three in terms of combat strength.

The Yan Kingdom actually let them out; it seems they're preparing to compete for rankings!

The people behind them should be the Taoist priests.

His aura was very stable, and the energy within his body far exceeded that of ordinary people, even surpassing that of some fragments of giant beasts.

Fang Rui was certain that the Sui Beast fragments would participate in the finals, but their participation in the competition at Longmen was unexpected. After all, in Fang Rui's mind, the Sui Beast fragments and the Celestial Master would guard the northern border, resisting evil spirits while also keeping an eye on Fang Rui...

Fang Rui specifically mentioned the "Northern Frontier," how could someone from Yan Kingdom not care?

Not to mention someone from Yan Kingdom, Wei Yanwu and the Grand Tutor were also very concerned, worried that Fang Rui might do something.

The power of evil spirits is truly disgusting.

Fang Rui withdrew his gaze and stopped paying attention to the fragments of the Year Beast, but the attention he had given them a few seconds earlier had already alerted the others.

"There's a strong sense of unfamiliarity about me."

Although some people see Fang Rui as a behemoth, the reality is that he... is not a behemoth.

Therefore, Ling and the others did not detect the aura of the giant beast, but only sensed an indescribable aura.

"Are they other contestants?" a Taoist priest asked.

"Perhaps." Ling couldn't be sure and didn't continue to pay attention.

As he spoke, Chongyue stared at the figure whose form had become blurred, "Don't do anything unnecessary, Second Brother."

The person's ethereal form stopped, and looking at the serious-looking person, their form solidified again.

"I just want to meet some new friends, don't get excited." The person shrugged, offering an excuse that even they didn't believe.

“You’d better…” Chongyue said, leading the team to continue forward.

Meanwhile, Wei Yanwu, the organizer of the plan, looked at the members of the Deep Sea Church who were keeping the secret with a serious expression.

They tried many methods, but none of them could get these people to talk. They didn't reveal a single thing about their plans or their companions.

This was a situation he hadn't anticipated.
