Douluo Continent: I Can Summon Heroic Spirits

Chapter 97 Orange's Test; Three New Heroic Spirits

Gu Yeqiu jumped out of the car impatiently, like a bird released from its cage, hopping and skipping towards the gate.

As the group got out of the car one after another, Ye Chenxing looked up and his gaze rose, immediately drawn to the scene before him.

What comes into view is a magnificent tower that soars into the clouds.

The exterior of the Star Tower headquarters was designed exactly like his vision of the "Imaginary Tree," with a mysterious white and purple color scheme throughout.

However, unlike the eerie feeling of the original Imaginary Tree that made people lose their minds, the Star Tower headquarters in front of us has sharp lines, and the metallic texture and soul guide light are intertwined, showing a futuristic technology style with a strong visual impact.

The presence of soul-guided flying vehicles hovering around them further amplified this impression.

Looking at the newly renovated building, Ye Chenxing couldn't help but secretly admire it.

Archer, you're amazing! Not only are the cheats you give out awesome, but your work efficiency is unmatched.

In just nine short months, he actually managed to create such a magnificent Star Tower.

Gu Yue walked to his side, looked up at the top of the tower, and said in a cool voice with a touch of emotion, "No matter how many times I see it, it is still very shocking."

Not only the Star Tower itself, but also the surrounding area has undergone astonishing changes.

The once desolate and remote outskirts of Mingdu are now filled with high-rise buildings, wide and smooth streets, and a constant flow of various soul-guided vehicles.

The neon lights of the surrounding shops and the brilliance of the headquarters complement each other, making the level of prosperity visibly increase.

Just then, Ye Chenxing suddenly frowned slightly.

He noticed that a large area in the middle of the road, directly opposite the main gate of the Star Tower, had been fenced off, and it seemed that something was under construction.

This is right in front of the main gate of his territory! How important is the facade? What is Archer thinking?

"Come quick! Come quick!"

Suddenly a shout came from the doorway. Looking in the direction of the sound, Gu Yeqiu was already waving to them from the doorway.

It was rush hour, and the area around the Star Tower was crowded with people. Their appearance and demeanor were so eye-catching that they had attracted the attention of many passersby.

Gu Yue looked at the excited Gu Yeqiu and smiled indulgently.

"This child."

Ye Chenxing nodded in deep agreement.

It seems that the closed-off education that Di Tian and his classmates provided really stifled this girl; everything she saw after coming out was new and exciting.

"Let's go."

Stepping through the gate, the interior decoration is equally impressive, full of a unique aesthetic that combines technology and soul tools.

Various convenient lifting mechanisms and information projection screens operated smoothly. Ye Chenxing immediately noticed that many of the soul tool ideas he had casually mentioned to Archer before leaving seemed to have been realized by Qian Gu Dongfeng and his team.

"Master Tower! Is that you, Master Tower?!"

A clear, surprised voice suddenly came from one side of the hall.

Ye Chenxing looked in the direction of the sound.

The newcomer was a girl with neat short orange hair, fair skin, and delicate features that exuded a touch of heroism.

She was wearing a smart uniform custom-made for the staff of Star Tower, which perfectly outlined her beautiful figure, and she was walking quickly towards them with an excited expression.

Ye Chenxing was somewhat surprised and raised an eyebrow.

"Isn't this an orange? Long time no see."

"Oh my god, the tower master actually remembers Orange! Orange is so happy!" Orange covered her mouth, her eyes sparkling, looking flattered.

However----

This is a lie.

As an outstanding female agent, Orange possesses a confidence that leaves a lasting impression on anyone who meets her. Her distinctive features are so striking that anyone who has interacted with her, especially men, will never easily forget her.

Of course, Ye Chenxing was not included in this category. He was only impressed by Ju Zi because she was an important character in the original work. However, just as the surprised smile on her face was still blooming, her gaze passed over Ye Chenxing and landed on the four stunningly beautiful girls behind him.

The next second, the smile on Orange's lips froze slightly, and she instantly lost her composure.

Needless to say, Qian Renxue was someone Ju Zi knew from intelligence reports that this blonde older sister was always by Ye Chenxing's side.

But the others—

Aren't those Gu Yue and Gu Yeqiu?!

Gu Yue and Gu Yeqiu joined the Star Tower several months ago. With their beauty and talent, they naturally became well-known figures in the Star Tower.

What are these two doing here? They actually know the Tower Master? And their relationship seems to be quite special!

Even more perplexing is the question: who is that silver-haired, purple-eyed girl at the end? —Gu Yue's twin sister?!

Orange felt a sudden tightness in her chest.

She joined the Star Tower initially on Xu Tianran's orders, using her dual identity as a senior student and a member of the Star Tower to infiltrate Ye Chenxing's inner circle and gather intelligence.

But who would have thought that the tower manager would simply vanish without a trace the moment she started working there?

All affairs of the Star Tower were handed over to Qian Gu Dongfeng, whose background could not be investigated at all. He reported to Ye Chenxing and then issued the Tower Master's orders.

Her "get-closer plan" failed before it even began.

However, this is merely a superficial excuse.

Since Xu Tianran lost his genitals, his personality has become increasingly sinister, and his actions have become more and more violent.

Ju Zi's feelings towards him were mostly for his own use, with a bit of gratitude for taking him in. With Ye Chenxing's sudden emergence and Xu Tianran's drastic change in personality, Ju Zi increasingly wanted to stay in the Crown Prince's Palace.

Moreover, despite her initial impure motives, she, being of commoner origin, was genuinely kind-hearted during the time she spent helping ordinary people in the Star Tower.

Using this as an excuse, she has been staying away from the Crown Prince's Palace and spending her time in the Star Tower.

Of course, at the heart of all this, it still has to give way to her grand revenge.

Orange had thought countless times about how to get Ye Chenxing on board and help her achieve her goal of destroying Xingluo.

But the Star Tower's mission is to help ordinary people and love peace, which makes Orange both love and hate it now.

This was clearly the vision she should have hoped for, but now it has become a major obstacle to her revenge.

Want Ye Chenxing to lead the Star Luo War? That's as difficult as climbing to the heavens.

What are her bargaining chips? To become a double agent for Ye Chenxing and betray Xu Tianran?

Orange couldn't help but ask herself, "Does Ye Chenxing really need this?"

After much thought, she could only choose another, most primitive way to take advantage of a woman's strengths.

Ye Xue is his older sister, she's not a threat.

All things considered, it seems that her only remaining threat is Meng Hongchen. She has even been planning her next contact with him.

Until I saw this scene before me.

Hey, you guys pick your opponents, pick them out for me!

The moment Ju Zi saw these exceptionally beautiful and elegant girls surrounding Ye Chenxing, she almost instantly dismissed her previous thoughts.

Everything is over.

We can't compare, we simply can't compare.

But she was ultimately a competent female spy. Even though she was mentally devastated, her face remained flawless, displaying a perfectly timed smile of surprise.

"Tower Master, where have you been all this time? Everyone in the tower misses you terribly." Orange blinked, her tone conveying just the right amount of concern and intimacy.

Then, she subtly shifted her gaze, glancing at Gu Yue and Gu Yeqiu behind her, and continued to probe with feigned surprise: "Moreover, I didn't expect you to know Gu Yue and Gu Yeqiu. They are now important members of our Star Tower."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chenxing's lips curled into a faint smile.

How could he not know that Ju Zi was subtly trying to get information out of him? This senior's basic spy skills were indeed solid, but they were still a bit too green to be used on him.

He had absolutely no intention of continuing the conversation.

"It's nothing, I just had some insights into cultivation and found a quiet place to go into seclusion for a while."

After brushing it off with a few perfunctory words, Ye Chenxing abruptly cut off Ju Zi's further probing and changed the subject: "Arch..."

Where is the eternal east wind? I want to see him.

Seeing that Ye Chenxing was so meticulous and even gave direct instructions, Ju Zi secretly grimaced, but still maintained that impeccable smile on her face.

"You wish to see Lord Qian Gu? Please follow me, I will take you there."

On the way to the core area, Ye Chenxing also learned about the recent development of the Star Tower from Ju Zi.

Xuan Ziwen has completely broken away from Mingde Hall and joined them; Ye Yulin simply moved his entire laboratory here and is working hard on the feasibility of the soul guidance satellite; a group of advanced soul masters, led by Li Haoyu, have also all settled in the Star Tower.

Ye Chenxing nodded repeatedly as he listened.

Archer, or rather, the Heroic Spirit's professional abilities truly far exceeded his expectations.

"The capable should do more work."

Ye Chenxing looked at the well-organized facilities in the corridor and silently made a decision.

It seems we'll have to give this capable person more responsibilities in the future.

Ye Chenxing and Ju Zi chatted casually, and before they knew it, they arrived in front of a large door with a metallic feel.

As the doors slid open to both sides, Ye Chenxing couldn't help but be somewhat surprised.

They've even managed to create a soul-guided elevator.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. If such a towering building didn't have an elevator, just climbing up and down every day would probably exhaust a cow to death.

Looking across the entire continent, it's estimated that only those outstanding graduates from Shrek Academy who run like it's nothing could accept this level of intensity without batting an eye.

"Ding-a-ling" 6

With a soft thud, the elevator came to a smooth stop on the top floor.

The main entrance opens to both sides, revealing a spacious and tidy office. There are no superfluous luxurious decorations; the most striking feature is a huge floor-to-ceiling window that offers a panoramic view of most of Mingdu.

As if sensing something amiss, Qian Gu Dong Feng was now standing in front of the desk, facing the direction of the elevator, bowing respectfully.

"Master Tower, welcome back."

Ye Chenxing walked forward with a smile.

"No need for formalities, Archer. You've had a hard time these past few days."

"You flatter me, Tower Master." Qian Gu Dongfeng's tone was calm and composed, without the slightest hint of arrogance. "It is my mission to share your burdens."

Since this is a task assigned by you, I will certainly do my utmost.

As he spoke, he slowly straightened up and glanced calmly at Orange, who was following behind him.

Orange was a shrewd person with an excellent ability to read people, and she immediately understood.

"Lord Tower, I shall take my leave now." She politely bowed and turned to retreat back into the elevator.

As the elevator doors slowly closed and descended, a question flashed through Orange's mind.

Archer? Is that the code name of that legendary figure...?

Seeing that Ju Zi had left, everyone followed Ye Chenxing into the office.

Ye Chenxing sat down on the sofa, looked at the surroundings, and couldn't help but praise, "Archer, I never expected you could do this. My opinion of your professional abilities has completely changed."

"Your subordinate will continue to work hard." Qian Gu Dong Feng bowed his head slightly.

Ye Chenxing nodded and turned to look at the girls beside her.

"I forgot to formally introduce him to you. He is also one of my Heroic Spirits, and his class is Archer."

On the way to the Star Tower, Ye Chenxing had already highlighted the key points about his "Heroic Spirit Summoning" ability.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yue nodded thoughtfully.

No wonder.

She had always felt there was something strange about this second-in-command of the Star Tower, but now everything made sense.

Qian Gu Dongfeng remained composed and respectful, bowing slightly to everyone before turning around and calmly placing several cups of freshly brewed hot tea on the coffee table. His manners were impeccable, leaving no room for criticism.

Ye Chenxing picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.

Surprisingly, this Archer black tea was brewed quite well.

He then stood up and called Qian Gu Dong Feng to the inner room next door.

Closing the door shut out the view from the outside world.

"Besides checking on the development of the Star Tower, I have a few important matters to attend to when I came back this time," Ye Chenxing said, sitting down in a chair and getting straight to the point.

With no outsiders present, Qian Gu Dong Feng's title changed to: "Master, please give your orders."

Ye Chenxing's mind stirred.

Without any sign of soul power fluctuations, three figures appeared out of thin air in the room.

"My abilities have reached a new breakthrough." Ye Chenxing looked at the three new Heroic Spirits in front of him, then turned to Qian Gu Dongfeng and said, "The Noble Phantasms of these Heroic Spirits are very useful in construction and logistics. From now on, let them stay at headquarters to assist you in your work."

"Yes, Master."

Following the gaze, Qian Gu Dong Feng's eyes fell upon the three people who had appeared out of thin air.

On the left is a young man in his twenties.

Dressed in a sharp, tailored battle suit, with a badge he had never seen before faintly visible on his chest, he stood tall and straight, exuding a hint of lone wolf arrogance, yet his brows also held the weariness characteristic of a typical office worker.

In the middle stood an elderly man, dressed in the simplest coarse linen clothes, leaning on an old wooden cane, his figure slightly hunched. He looked like just an ordinary village chief, but his slightly cloudy eyes inexplicably revealed a confidence that allowed him to scold even a titled Douluo.

On the far right stood a tall, slender young woman. She was dressed in black, her face veiled, revealing only a pair of cold, indifferent eyes. She simply stood there quietly, exuding an aura of aloofness that kept strangers at bay, as if she were completely isolated from the surrounding noise.

These three people looked rather ordinary.

Since they are Heroic Spirits summoned by the Master, we must not judge them by their appearance.

He stepped forward, clasped his hands in a fist salute, and asked, "May I ask who these three gentlemen are—"
