Lin Huang followed the Heaven Alliance's team and passed through the Dimensional Portal . They arrived on an island above the Peaceful Ocean, waiting patiently for the rest to come .
The monsters on the island must have been cleared by the Union Government and the Hunter Association earlier . The crowd had been standing over there for about ten minutes, but not a single monster had appeared .
When it was about 9 . 30 a . m, all of them had arrived .
The elder demigod then summoned the Emperor's Ship .
The Emperor's Ship was apparently much more expensive than the commercial Emperor's Ship that Lin Huang had boarded at the Victoria Harbour . He knew it just by looking at its appearance alone . A famous designer intricately decorated the patterns on the surface of the ship . However, on the surface of the commercial Emperor's Ship, only the logo of the organization was printed on it . The body of the ship was silver in color . The size of the ship was almost similar to the one for commercial use . However, its weapons had been enhanced, and the number of God Crashers was twice of those on the previous ship . Perhaps the manufacturing cost of the ship would be double or more of that of the former spaceship . If it were to be sold at an auction, its starting bid would perhaps be equivalent to 2 . 5 demigod relics .
Seeing the Emperor's Ship, not only Lin Huang but the rest of them were looking at it with envy .
After summoning the ship, the elder demigod felt proud of himself as he looked at everyone's expression . He grinned but soon, he maintained a neutral expression and commanded, "Quickly get up onto the ship!"
"Please keep in order . " The imperial-level man in the military uniform from the Union Government appeared to keep everyone in line .
About 1,000 of them went on board, and the people sized each other up .
Lin Huang noticed that many of its components were much better than that of the commercial Emperor's Ship . They were of a different standard . The difference was like that between low-cost cars and luxury cars . The former could only be used for transportation whereas the latter was a luxury for people could show off their wealth .
After spending more than ten minutes, the people got into the ship one after another . The elder demigod then said, "We're currently more than 6,000 kilometers away from the ruins . At the cruising speed of my ship, we'll reach there in two hours . You're allowed to do anything you like in these two hours, but please don't create trouble . The first floor of the ship is open to the public . I've prepared some food and drinks for all of you . Since we're going to the ruins right after we arrive, we only serve ordinary sweet beverages which are non-alcoholic . Please bring along your trash as you leave . Otherwise, it'll be troublesome for me when I clean up . "
After the instructions, the ship was activated .
"You may leave now . Gather here when we're about to get out of the ship . " After Shen Tao finished his words, the Heaven Alliance members left .
The members of the rest of the organizations did their own thing . Some of them stood at the side of the ship, looking out at the scenery . There were groups of people sitting on the deck of the ship, talking to each other . Also, some of the people went to the ship's cabin to look for food .
Lin Huang walked towards the cafeteria located on the first floor as well . Although he had had his breakfast, he did not mind trying some of the excellent food there .
After taking a few steps forward, a few people blocked his way .
The leader was a man with yellow hair that resembled the bottom end of a broom . He was dressed in a green singlet and camouflage pants . He was muscular, and he was on immortal-level rank-9 . Without considering his hair, he had a height of more than two meters tall . He looked like an iron pagoda .
"Hey fella, are you the Lin Xie who created a stir in the Genius Union?"
Lin Huang raised his head and took a glance at him . He then fixed his gaze on the rest of them . Other than the muscular man who was an immortal-level rank-9, the rest of them were on immortal-level rank-7 or rank-8 . They did not have any apparent characteristics on their bodies . Lin Huang could only confirm that they were Genius Union members . However, he was unsure of which organization they belonged to .
"Why are you looking for me?" After sizing them up, Lin Huang asked without any facial expression . As the people had come up to him, he knew that it was not a good thing . Therefore, there was no need for him to be polite .
"You're just a blue flame…" Right when he was about to utter those words, the man in the singlet noticed the change in Lin Huang's combat strength and immediately said, "How can a purple flame-level be so arrogant? I…"
"Gu Li, the people from the Divine Alliance are shameless . How can an immortal-level rank-9 bully a newbie who's only on purple flame-level?" Somebody interrupted the man . Unexpectedly, the person was Shen Tao .
"Shen Tao, when did I bully him? I'm here to become friends with him as he's Lin Xie who ranks first on the leaderboard . I'm interested to know if he's different from the others . " Gu Li, the man in the singlet, chuckled and said to Shen Tao, "However, I've seen him in person now . There's nothing special about him though . He's as weak as a chick . I won't bother to bully him . "
"There's only one question that I'd like to ask you . When you were a blue flame-level, which checkpoint of the Stairway Tree were you on?" Lin Huang asked without any expression .
Their facial expressions changed right after they heard what Lin Huang asked . Nobody was willing to answer his question as it was a rhetorical smack in the face .
Lin Huang was on the 55th checkpoint when he was a blue flame-level . He had broken the record on the Stairway Tree . Regardless of how he had managed to achieve that, it remained a fact that he had broken the record .
"Let's go and have some food over there . " Seeing that the rest of them were dumbstruck, Lin Huang greeted Shen Tao and walked past Gu Li and the rest .
Their faces looked gloomy, but they did not stop him .
Many people witnessed what had just happened .
To many of the people outside the Genius Union and those who had left the Genius Union, they had no idea who Lin Huang was . Seeing a purple flame-level could be intimidating to an immortal-level rank-9, so they were curious about him .
"Who's the young man in the white t-shirt?" Some of them started asking .
"He's Lin Xie, the supreme genius of the Heaven Alliance . He managed to get to the 55th checkpoint when he was a blue flame-level . He's currently ranked first on the leaderboard," one of them from the Genius Union informed .
As Gu Li from the Divine Alliance attempted to provoke him, soon, Lin Xie's name was on the lips of everyone outside the Genius Union .
Lin Huang did not know the effects brought about by the conflict . He was enjoying the delicious food at the cafeteria on the first floor of the ship .
"What you said has struck Gu Li dumb . I think it's funny, recalling his facial expression as if he was suffering from constipation . " Shen Tao laughed although soon, his face turned serious . "However, Gu Li's ability is on par with mine . After entering the ruins, beware of him . "
"A barking dog doesn't bite . His stopping me before we enter the ruins is a way to put on airs . He isn't going to threaten me . Since he's an immortal-level rank-9, he won't fight me as it's embarrassing . " Lin Huang knew him well . "If he really were to fight me, he won't create trouble for me in public . He'll secretly kill me in the ruins so that no one will suspect him of being the murderer . "
"The people from the Divine Alliance aren't dangerous, but the underworld organization is," Lin Huang frowned as he said . He could sense that the gaze of the people from the underworld organization was penetrating through his body . Their abilities were far beyond Shen Tao's . "The people from the underworld organization have no mercy . As long as they are confident that they can do it, they'll probably attack regardless of who the person is . "
