The Star River Era! The Dimensional Freedom Demon

Ji Chen closed his eyes wearily.

Forcibly influencing the mind of a top-tier four-star superhuman is still too difficult for him at his current level.

Even if Galahad's will was weak at this moment, it wouldn't work.

Despite all the hard work, the road ahead to completely transform Galahad into a human form is still long.

We still need to rely on the panel instructions to use the seven emotions and six desires as a means to catalyze the growth of the demon seed.

Although he did not achieve the desired results, Ji Chen was still very excited.

After all, this was the first time he had tried to actively transform a person into a human form, rather than relying on a compatibility level that he still couldn't quite grasp.

He looked at Galahad, who had fallen into a coma and was now under the protection mechanism, and a cold glint flashed in his eyes.

The mental shock he just experienced gave him a lot of information in Galahad's mind.

While Galahad was the executor of this operation, the real mastermind was the secretary-general working for Capricorn ruler Phipsta.

Considering the mentor-disciple relationship between Galahad and the Archon, and Archon Phipsta's need for the power of faith to help him prepare for godhood...

Ji Chen sneered inwardly.

It seems that the governor hiding behind the scenes is the one who truly wants to bring him down.

However, that governor was very cautious, and his cunning was unfathomable.

He never gives direct orders; all his intentions are revealed to his subordinates "inadvertently" in a scattered and vague manner, leaving them to figure out his thoughts on their own.

Even the order to make Galahad the final link in the chain of evidence was merely relayed through the Secretary General.

In other words, even if this matter comes to light in the future, the governor can completely absolve himself of responsibility and shift all blame onto the secretary-general, saying that he was corrupt, flattering his superiors, and presumptuously guessing their intentions.

If he followed the proper channels, Ji Chen would essentially never be able to do anything to this governor.

But if you go through unofficial channels...

With a charge of murdering a one-star governor handed down, Ji Chen is no longer fit to work in the Federation.

"Well, this governor is no less impressive than our academy's vice dean."

Ji Chen learned about the news about Vice Dean Qu Jihai from the dean himself.

It's one thing if a cultivator, especially one who has reached the Mahayana stage, is a cunning old fox, given the nature of cultivation.

Ji Chen just didn't expect that the governor, a demigod who cultivated martial arts, was also a cunning old fox.

"You like playing dirty tricks, don't you? This time, not only did your apprentice not kill me, but he will also be subtly controlled by me from now on. I want to see who is more cunning between us in the future."

Once Galahad's human form was in place, Ji Chen retaliated by betraying his master.

Seemingly sensing that the commotion inside the Nebula Building had subsided, the sealing array that enveloped the entire Nebula Building instantly dissipated.

Ji Chen was about to carry Galahad to give the governor a hard time, but the scene before him surprised him.

All that could be seen in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows were figures standing suspended in mid-air, with five people in the lead.

Ji Chen glanced at the list and saw that the dean was among them.

That's not all. Before Ji Chen entered the Nebula Building, the thunderclouds that had been covering the entire Capricorn Star had completely disappeared.

Instead, the sun shines brightly in the sky, and the sky is cloudless for miles.

Ji Chen's gaze swept over the five people present without making a sound. Apart from the dean, the other four also possessed their own unique presence:

A middle-aged Taoist priest dressed in a Taoist robe and wearing a cloud-shaped crown, with an elegant and otherworldly demeanor.

A young man with extraordinary, striking good looks, as if blessed by the stars.

A middle-aged official, dressed in a crisp administrative uniform, exuding an air of authority.

And a young general in military uniform, with a composed demeanor.

Oh.

Thank goodness I didn't kill Galahad, otherwise I would have been in real trouble today.

Ji Chen forced a smile.

Damn it, all five six-star superhumans from Capricorn, whether they reported it or not, are here. What the hell?

Ji Chen glanced casually at the young man whose appearance was comparable to his own.

Didn't they say this vice dean wouldn't arrive for another day or two? Are they planning a surprise visit?

While feeling surprised, Ji Chen couldn't help but look at the governor with schadenfreude.

Compared to coming to target him, Ji Chen was more convinced that the vice president, who held the position of inspector, was there to target the governor.

Sure enough, Ji Chen observed carefully and found that the inspector, the governor, and the vice dean who was cultivating immortality all showed signs of unstable breathing, while the dean himself remained calm and composed.

Ji Chen looked up at the sky again and clearly noticed that part of Capricorn's atmosphere had been blown away.

These individuals must have been secretly manipulating each other.

"Ahem!"

The dean couldn't stand it anymore.

The brat was as unreliable as ever. With so many important people around, he kept looking around with his eyes darting around. Ji Chen wasn't ashamed, but he felt embarrassed.

"We just arrived too, Ji Chen. What's the situation inside?"

Cortez wasn't just making things up.

Basically, as soon as there was any movement here, these top experts on this planet sensed it.

The destructive power of a four-star superhuman is undeniable. If they cannot be subdued quickly, they may well destroy Juehua City, which has been built with great difficulty, in a short period of time.

Even high-ranking, six-star superhumans like them would have to rush to deal with terrorists of this caliber.

It's just that someone sealed off this place too quickly, and with someone secretly obstructing them, they've only just arrived here.

That is, when Ji Chen finished off the remaining Crystal Horn Clan members.

Cortez glanced at Consul Fipsta, but ultimately said nothing more.

To say something in this setting without solid evidence is tantamount to openly undermining the stability of Capricorn.

Moreover, he had previously received a favor from Phipsta, and his appointment as the dean of the Superpower Academy on Capricorn was also out of consideration for Phipsta.

Ji Chen didn't know if these people were faking it or not, so he had no choice but to report the truth.

"Dean, and everyone else, the alien terrorists have all been eliminated by the students, but... ..."

"Just what?"

The handsome young man, who was also the inspector, frowned and stepped forward.

"You're so young, why are you hesitating? What are you worried about? Just tell me the truth about what happened inside!"

His gaze swept over the chaotic scene, and his voice suddenly turned sharp:

"To allow such destruction by a foreign race is utterly dereliction of duty and a serious breach of responsibility on the part of certain federal officials!"

As he spoke, he looked at Allahad, who was lying on the ground, still unconscious.

"Moreover, how could he, a law enforcement chief, disregard public safety and engage in a duel with a student like you under such circumstances? This is utterly absurd and shows a complete disregard for federal law!"

See this?

Ji Chen's heart skipped a beat, but he wasn't worried that these people would see through the pressure he had used earlier.

He controlled it very well; the suppression was only directed at the individual, and he had just altered Galahad's memories—he was very steady.

But this inspector and the others arrived so early, yet none of them went in to stop them...

And even if I win, no one will stop me from inflicting secondary damage and mental attacks on Galahad, hmm.

Ji Chen glanced at the governor again, his expression remaining impassive.

Someone is trying to set a trap for this governor.

They're one of our own.

Ji Chen ignored the inspector's slightly sharp tone and immediately aligned himself with the inspector.

"That's right, sir. Director Galahad's targeting of me must be orchestrated by someone of a higher rank. I suspect there's an alien spy among the higher-ups on Capricorn!"
