"It seems they're going to be wandering around. I heard that Lord Leng Feng liked to travel around before he passed away. Gu Ran and her sister probably met Lord Leng Feng during their wanderings after that."
No one could say whether they felt disappointed, happy, or a combination of both.
Their feelings towards Gu Ran on the screen were complicated. On the one hand, after learning about Gu Ran's childhood experiences, they felt a sense of sympathy for him, so they stood on Gu Ran's side.
On the other hand, they were also very clear about what a terrifying figure this boy would grow up to be and what kind of disaster he would bring to the Human Alliance.
Furthermore, being completely devastated by Gu Ran's extraordinary talent made them unconsciously feel a sense of inferiority.
All of these factors combined to create their complex thoughts.
However, Lin Fan was different. He could hardly hide his smile. Kelly Duville's murder was indeed unexpected.
He was surprised to find that Gu Ran wasn't as smart as he had thought. It turned out that he had been discouraged by the previous scenes and had unconsciously overestimated her.
Now, he was prepared to watch Gu Ran fail to fulfill his promise and embarrass himself, and then be forced to flee Saint-Yoel City in a sorry state.
......
In the light screen.
When Finn Duville watched Gu Ran kill Kelly Duville, even with his decades of experience honing his composure through deceit and treachery, he could hardly keep his composure.
Because at that moment, he was thinking the same thing as everyone else—how dare he?!
"Do you know what you're doing, young man? Very well, you've successfully angered me. Are you declaring war on the Duville family?" Finn Duville forcibly suppressed his anger, narrowing his eyes as he looked at Gu Ran. "Very well, you've succeeded. From now on, no matter who you are or where you are, the Duville family will hunt you down to the ends of the earth!"
Gu Ran showed no anger whatsoever that one would expect from someone who kills in a fit of rage; on the contrary, he maintained a faint smile throughout.
Faced with Finn Duville's threat, Gu Ran said nonchalantly, "Mr. Finn Duville, are you feeling very angry now?"
"Then you'd better take care of yourself, because something even more infuriating is about to happen."
"If you get so angry that you hurt yourself, then you won't be able to hear anything I'm about to say, right?"
Upon hearing Gu Ran's words, Finn Duville almost thought he had misheard.
How dare this boy talk to me like that?
Shouldn't he be terrified at this moment, trying to escape and avoid the pursuit of the Duville family?
Isn't he afraid of the Deauville family at all?
For some reason, Finn Duville was even angrier than when Gu Ran killed Kelly Duville when he thought about this.
Has the Duville family failed to display its true power in recent years, to the point that no one dares to defy them anymore?
“I suspect Mr. Finn Deville is in a rather agitated mood right now and is unlikely to listen to what I’m saying, so I’ll let him calm down first, and then we can continue our conversation.”
"Before this, I only spoke one sentence to Mr. Finn Duville."
Gu Ran looked at Finn Duville with a playful expression: "Has the Duville family ever been enemies with spatial ability users?"
Gu Ran chuckled and glanced at the people in the control room, saying, "If you want to save your lives, you'd better not do anything unnecessary."
After saying that, Gu Ran destroyed all the control instruments in the control room in a few moves, then opened a portal and went inside.
After entering, Gu Ran turned around and looked at Finn Duville on the projection screen: "We will meet again like this in another place soon, but I hope that by then you will be able to calm down and listen to what I have to say."
......
Outside the light screen.
Everyone was also curious about where Gu Ran was going after opening the portal.
Immediately, someone exclaimed in surprise, "This...this seems to be another military camp, and that person also seems to be from the Duville family."
"This...this can't be that Deville family member from Sector E next door, can it? Does he intend to kill this core member of the Deville family again?"
"No way, has he really gone crazy?"
"That's an A-level ability user of the same strength as him, and there must be other strong individuals in the garrison camp!"
Gu Ran's actions once again surprised everyone; he actually wanted to kill another core member of the Duville family.
33. The E-Sector Legion Headquarters, a source of terror for the slums.
Gu Ran opened the spatial portal, glanced at the landmarks on the ground to confirm the direction, and then continued to teleport forward.
He quickly discovered his target: the Legion headquarters in Sector E!
For the various military camps without spatial interference devices, Gu Ran was someone they simply couldn't guard against.
Gu Ran easily and naturally searched for his target in the Legion headquarters—William Duville, the highest-ranking military officer in Sector E.
Thanks to his spatial abilities, the people in the camp were completely unable to find him.
Gu Ran thought for a moment and did not immediately arrest or interrogate the person.
After all, as the highest-ranking officer in the legion, ordinary soldiers wouldn't know William Duville's exact location.
However, Gu Ran has just checked and there is no beast tide in Zone E at the moment, so William Duville should not be on the front line, but probably in the Legion headquarters.
At that moment, a blonde, long-legged female officer carrying a whip walked into a secluded room.
The female officer had a captivating S-curve figure, her ample bosom filling out her black military uniform, and her lipstick was applied so brightly it looked as if it were stained with blood.
However, her attire didn't resemble clothing for fighting ferocious beasts; rather, it looked like...
Gu Ran frowned, but didn't say anything. Instead, he quietly followed.
The female officer opened the door to the secluded room, glanced around coldly, and said indifferently, "Don't even think about resisting or escaping. This is the legion headquarters; you can't escape no matter what. Besides, it's your good fortune to be noticed by the general."
"Think about it, you are just a bunch of lowly people from the slums. The general is a member of the Duville family in the inner city. Your previous statuses were worlds apart. If you hadn't been somewhat attractive and caught the general's eye, you would never have been able to gain the favor of such an important figure as the general."
It turned out that this secluded room was full of young girls and boys from the slums who had been kidnapped.
Upon hearing the female officer's words, the boys and girls felt no honor at being chosen by the general; instead, they trembled with fear.
There was no other reason than that the rumors about General Duville in Area E were already common knowledge.
General Deville, who guards District E, has a fondness for young and beautiful boys and girls. Some of those chosen by General Deville thought they had struck it lucky and could finally escape life in the slums.
But the people in the slums never saw these people again, and then General Duville continued to select boys and girls, and then no one ever saw these people again.
Those who knew these young men and women assumed they had gone to the inner city to live a good life, so even though they never saw them again, they didn't think anything was wrong, and even felt a deep envy in their hearts.
Rumors circulated that General Duville enjoyed torture in that area, and that all those chosen were tortured to death.
Then, in a wilderness near the legion headquarters, a mass grave containing hundreds or thousands of bodies was discovered.
All the boys and girls who were rumored to have gone to the inner city to live a good life were buried here, and their relatives and friends found their belongings in this mass grave that could prove their identities.
After that, everyone avoided the selection process from Legion Headquarters like the plague.
The officer sent by the legion headquarters to select people, seeing that no one was taking the bait anymore and that his job was becoming more difficult, stopped maintaining his hypocritical facade and began to arrest people himself.
This undoubtedly proves from another angle that those who were selected were definitely not having a good time, so the reputation of the officers sent by the Legion Headquarters to select people and General Duville has taken a sharp turn for the worse.
But it was clear that the noble General Duville didn't care at all. He probably didn't even know how his men had found the people for him; all he cared about was the result.
The officers who were sent to select "beauties" no longer bothered to hide their true intentions. Although this made their work more complicated, the weak slum dwellers were no match for them.
Once people learn how to use their social connections to coerce them, they have no choice but to submit and betray their daughters, sons, sisters, brothers, and friends.
The female officer lashed the boys and girls with her whip: "If you don't want to suffer, then behave yourselves!"
Gu Ran opened the portal with a cold look in his eyes and appeared in the room.
He had once read gossip about William Duville, the commander of the E District Legion, in a magazine, which included a report on this particular preference of William Duville.
However, he never expected that it would actually be true.
"Who are you?" the female officer exclaimed in surprise.
But soon the female officer found it difficult to breathe. She felt the space around her become incredibly thick, as if she were sinking into a quagmire.
This move is the same one Gu Ran used to punish Kelly Duville: distorting space to create a closed space, where the air becomes thin.
The female officer's charming face quickly turned purplish-red, and the boys and girls in the room looked at Gu Ran with trepidation.
Looking at these young men and women who seemed like lambs to the slaughter, Gu Ran couldn't help but sigh.
If he hadn't awakened his spatial abilities, his situation would probably be similar to these teenagers, facing such tyranny and only able to wait for death in despair.
After spending some time teleporting the boys and girls to a slum area far from the legion headquarters, Gu Ran released the female officer.
“Take me to William Duville!” Gu Ran looked at the coughing, panting female officer. “If you want to try again, you can refuse me.”
34. The Vicious Female Officer
The female officer had never felt that the air could be so wonderful.
However, before she could catch her breath, a demonic voice reached her ears.
Was he after General Deauville?
The female officer looked up at Gu Ran, her eyes streaked with tears from her distress, which blurred her eyeliner and made her originally fair skin flushed. Combined with her carefully made-up and beautiful face, she looked pitiful and easily aroused the pity of some men who cherish women.
The female officer was also a woman who knew how to use her beauty to achieve her goals, although she was somewhat surprised that the other party was a young man.
However, she immediately remembered that these hot-blooded young men were at the stage where they were most interested in women, so her beauty should be an even greater advantage.
“General Duville…? I don’t know him…” The female officer said, as if feeling frustrated, she unbuttoned her uniform, revealing a patch of white skin. “Young man, could it be… you didn’t come here to see me?”
