Starting Cultivation in Wasteland

Chapter 1079: Chapter 945: Beyond Supreme

After Jilt asked the question, the scene remained silent, but it wasn’t because others dared not speak.

The silence at this moment represented the support of others for him.

Otherwise, Zhan Donglai could have directly stated — they hold orders from the military, and you should comply.

In fact, the second-in-command of Purple Star didn’t feel very good about Ping’an.

Especially with Schreier being killed and his own reputation damaged, he could completely say this.

But Zhan Donglai chose to remain quiet, which had little to do with the mysterious person’s backing.

After all, he is the planet’s second chief executive, and he is here to preside over the signing ceremony.

At this moment, whatever Ping’an has done in the past is irrelevant; the important thing is that this is a mineral source discovered by a civilian organization.

As a civil official, Zhan Donglai must stand firm in his position; now is not the time for a personal feud.

The others — including the people of the Mineral Management Division, no matter how unwilling they are, cannot clearly support the military at this moment.

As people of the government, occasionally betraying one’s own is fine, but now it’s a camp dispute; who dares to openly rebel?

Roger also remained silent for a moment before answering in a deep voice, "This was originally a military secret; since you insist on knowing..."

He paused, realized there was no response, and then snorted lightly — have I become the target of everyone’s arrows?

"Then I’ll explain briefly; remember to keep it confidential... This star body is very likely one of the Traveler’s riches."

The scene grew increasingly silent; "Traveler’s riches"? This news is truly shocking.

The location of the Wanderer Nebula is in the Sirius Star Realm, far enough from the Celestial River — it doesn’t even need to be described!

But this nebula is too famous, to the extent that even in the Outer Star Realm, many people have heard of it.

Even if there is a considerable degree of information barrier between star realms, the news has spread.

Especially the people present who are not involved in mining are in transportation, or they’re central government officials; they aren’t unfamiliar with this name.

Even a few who’ve never heard of it are of a very low ranking.

After the big shots heard about it, none were willing to speak, and the little figures at most just exchanged glances: What’s the deal here?

After a moment of silence, someone lazily spoke up, "You say it is the Traveler’s riches, so it definitely is?"

This voice carried a bit of hoarseness and sharpness, sounding like metal being scraped.

Roger’s gaze already swung over; the speaker wasn’t anyone else but one of the five Supremes.

He looked at the other person indifferently, "This is a professional assessment by the military, seems like you are somewhat dismissive?"

"That’s right," the Paranoid nodded, answered lazily, "I am very dismissive."

"The experts in the military can only handle weapons and equipment; other things... can they stop tarnishing the word ’professional’?"

A very sharp criticism, he had quite some contact with the military, and understands the situation clearly.

In fact, it’s not just him who understands this point, most other experienced big shots understand it too.

The military’s level in mineral assessment, can it surpass the Mineral Management Division or the Business Alliance?

However, only he dares to directly criticize because others... have other concerns.

For instance, Zhan Donglai is very clear about one thing: although Wanderer Nebula hasn’t been formally surveyed, initially, the military led the survey.

Then it’s normal for the military to know more, even the Outer Star Realm military has information, isn’t it quite normal?

Roger certainly can answer the Paranoid in this way — in this matter, we are more authoritative.

However, he didn’t do so; instead, he coldly looked at the Paranoid, "It seems there’s a need to correct your misconceptions!"

The excuse is already there, so let’s give the other party a bit of a shock first.

"With fists?" The Paranoid seemed amused but not amused while staring at him, "It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such an arrogant youngling!"

Calling me a youngling, are you worthy? Roger snorted coldly in his heart.

He believes in "if you can act, don’t talk," and the people in the military camp generally share this vibe.

He no longer paid attention to the Paranoid but instead looked at the other Supremes, and spoke without expression.

"Who else wants to correct their understanding? You can come one by one, or all together, it doesn’t matter!"

"You really aren’t an ordinary arrogant youngling!" Mu Yu was also angered, directly releasing the aura of the Earth Attribute Supreme.

"Want to fight?" Qinghu followed and released the aura of the Gold Attribute Supreme, "Count me in!"

"Hmm?" Granny Jia saw this, also released a Water Attribute aura, "Today’s younglings never cease to surprise me!"

Qu Jianlei pursed his lips, released the aura of a Wood Attribute Supreme, but didn’t say anything, only gazed provocatively at the opponent.

Roger is a Wood Attribute Supreme, he also displays Wood Attribute, clearly intending to challenge one-on-one.

Oh dear! The Paranoid watched as the four companions released their auras simultaneously, and sighed: Fire Attribute... I’m not too familiar with it.

The four companions release the auras of Gold, Wood, Water, and Earth respectively; only missing Fire Attribute to complete the Five Elements.

However, even if unfamiliar, might as well fake it a bit.

The Paranoid first released a fierce pressure, then slowly released the aura of Fire Attribute.

"Huh?" Roger felt the pressure from the other side, and his heart involuntarily sank slightly, his expression becoming much more grave.

A very powerful opponent, he realized instantly, incredibly powerful! Unprecedentedly powerful!

He had fought against many Supremes, but he truly couldn’t have imagined that one person’s aura could be so overwhelming.

However, this did not inspire fear in him; instead, his fighting spirit surged—this person could be a worthy opponent!

Just then, a lazy voice sounded, very ethereal, "Oh, interesting, have you gathered the Five Elements?"

Upon hearing this voice, Qu Jianlei, the Paranoid, and Granny Jia’s expressions all changed slightly.

Qinghu and Mu Yu were ultimately a bit slower to react and did not sense anything unusual.

The voice didn’t mind this; instead, it continued, "But the Fire Attribute... seems a bit fake, doesn’t it?"

The Paranoid let out a cold snort, "Fake or not... you can come and try it!"

"Tsk, I really don’t want to fight and kill," the voice sighed lightly, "Let’s chat for a bit first, why are you the Five Elements?"

Granny Jia and the Paranoid didn’t answer, they just looked at Qu Jianlei.

Qu Jianlei answered blandly, "Since you know it’s the Five Elements, why ask? Besides, do I have the obligation to inform you?"

The voice wasn’t angry either, "You really have the potential to lead, knowing in your heart but still daring to speak to me like that!"

"Does fear help?" Qu Jianlei replied indifferently, "What about being above the Supreme?"

"Oh my!" Upon hearing this, Roger’s face changed, realizing that indeed someone above the Supreme had really come with them!

But immediately, his heart sank again. The other party had at least three people who sensed the aura of someone above the Supreme with them.

Originally being a soldier and very adept at confrontation, with keen observation skills, he was confident he wasn’t mistaken.

That meant these three must also have encountered someone above the Supreme to have such clear recognition.

No wonder those two call out "juniors," they do have some insight!

But even more astonishing is that the other side, knowing full well they have someone above the Supreme, still dared to speak like this.

Where did they get the courage, could it be that their side also has someone above the Supreme?

Or perhaps among these three—someone has reached a realm above the Supreme themselves?

Thinking of this possibility, Roger’s heart couldn’t help but race, his muscles tensing up.

Not out of fear, but excitement—it’s the legendary above the Supreme, he very much wanted to experience it.

The next moment, the one above the Supreme leisurely spoke, "I’m a bit curious, who gave you the guts to speak like this?"

"Those two are excusable, they have some aura above the Supreme, but you are... a bit lacking."

From a distance, Zhan Donglai listening in had a slight change of expression—damn... is their background really that big?

He had always been curious about the origins of this group, daring to act recklessly against Supreme official Schreier.

Now he finally understood the source of their confidence.

——If there really is someone above the Supreme as a trump card, I would have the guts too!

At this moment, he heard the middle-aged woman speak calmly.

"Not quite above the Supreme, but I’d advise you to leave voluntarily to avoid regret."

As soon as Granny Jia said this, the scene fell into dead silence.

Everyone glanced at each other, eyes filled with deep shock and amazement.

——Am I hearing this wrong, facing the legendary above the Supreme, she dares to speak like this?

"Hmph," upon hearing this, Roger snorted coldly, staring expressionlessly at Granny Jia, "Are you looking for a fight?"

In any case, the speaker who is above the Supreme is on their side, he must stand up for them and incidentally get a taste of the other’s greatness.

"Scram!" The Paranoid unhesitatingly scolded him, "I’ve lost count of how many trash like you I’ve killed!"

He wasn’t speaking lightly; immediately, his whole body exuded an intense killing intent.

Jilt and a group of the Ping’an people were dumbfounded at this sight—my goodness, does someone really dare to speak to Roger like that?

Their newly embraced giant backer seems... really formidable!

Roger was taken aback by this and couldn’t quite believe his ears.

Then he composed himself and spoke coldly, "Have you killed many Supremes?"

He had defeated many Supremes, but the ones he had personally killed... were few and far between!

The other’s words did not intimidate him; rather, they fueled his strong fighting spirit: since you put it this way, you’re asking for death!

Roger enjoyed combat, but he was foremost a soldier. Completing his mission was his priority; he wouldn’t be fixated on one-on-one duels.

The Imperial has regulations against casually killing Supremes, but clearly, someone who has killed many Supremes can be treated differently.

Not to mention, they were currently executing orders from the Military Department.

During such a special period, military law was enforced, not constrained by ordinary law.

Roger had already begun to consider how to notify the warship to coordinate with his actions.
