Dust and debris would automatically form cloud platforms, similar to continental plates, floating in the Eternal Flow Sea. They are generally used as transfer and resting stations for long-distance travel. After human development, they would transform into islands suitable for long-term human habitation. Such islands are particularly common along the defense lines of the Northern Territory and the Southern Border, mostly serving as military bases. Bern Island was one of them. However, Bern Island was not a military base, but a private island belonging to the Xize Walker. Mu Qingtong piloted a cone-shaped ship to the outskirts of Bern Island. The island was enveloped by a massive layer of air, resembling a giant bubble floating in the ocean. Through the semi-translucent membrane, one could faintly overlook the situation inside. Inside the island, there were hundreds of sci-fi-like silver box-shaped houses, with various models of capsule ships continuously taking off and landing from the docking platform. A battleship the size of a Star Wheel hovered in the sky, and infrared probes were constantly sweeping the ground. Scanned by the system, the cone-shaped ship Xia Feng was in successfully landed on the platform. Tonight, Bern Island was holding an auction. Thus, Xia Feng and Mu Qingtong intercepted two nobles who were on their way to attend the banquet, assuming their identities and invitations. As for Lei Ya, she had her own disguise and invitation. There was a special Array on the island, suppressing the Spiritual Pressure to a very low level. However, luckily Xia Feng's physical strength was already very strong, so he was no longer concerned. The three changed into elegant suits and soon arrived at a large hall. The auction had already started. What astonished Xia Feng was that this place not only auctioned prohibited items like Infinite Stones but also auctioned Evil Beasts! One by one, uniquely looking Evils were imprisoned in specially made dark black cages, hanging under a silver-lit ceiling. Looking up, Xia Feng saw at least twenty Evils, mostly One-eyed Evils, which seemed not very threatening. Only the Four-eyed Evil in the center was ferocious with a blood-drenched massive mouth, roaring and howling at the people below. What worried Xia Feng though was that these Evil Beasts were very human-like in appearance. It's known that Evils close to human form are usually Five Eyes at least; lower-level Evils are unlikely to possess nearly human forms. "This is the secret experiment of Bern Island," Lei Ya's voice sounded beside him, "Perfect Evilization, these Evil Beasts were actually transformed from humans, but for now, they look like failed products. If no one buys them, they'll be banished to the Bailu Restricted Area to fend for themselves." Xia Feng had heard of the Bailu Restricted Area. Over the past few centuries, the border areas between the Imaginary Court and the Empire had only small-scale conflicts. However, thirty years ago, in the Bailu Sea Domain along the Northern Territory Defense Line, a medium-scale battle occurred, causing countless casualties and shocking the nation. The Bailu Sea Domain also sustained catastrophic damages in that terrifying battle, its spatial-temporal currents becoming extremely violent. No one dared to step foot in it, thereby becoming a forbidden zone for life. "But why would these nobles buy Evil Beasts?" Xia Feng frowned, puzzled, "Especially Half-Evils that have been transformed from humans." Lei Ya cast a glance at Xia Feng, patted his shoulder with a knowing tone, "Little Xia Feng, you can never imagine the hobbies of boring bigshots. And you better not try; it could shatter your worldview." "...?" Xia Feng widened his eyes in tactical disbelief, "Seems like you know a lot, huh, Ms.? Ssss—Ms., you wouldn't have..." "Get lost." Lei Ya's brow furrowed, and she slapped the back of Xia Feng's head. Xia Feng touched his head. It must be said that when Ms. Lei Ya's face was strict, there was an intimidating severity about her that instinctively inspired fear. However, Xia Feng's eyes always strayed due to the impressively full flutter beneath her off-shoulder evening dress, and he shifted his gaze to the cage above. As more and more people in the hall raised their paddles, the auction continued in an orderly manner, nearing the midway point. "Gentlemen and ladies, please proceed to the ballroom for a short break," the host opened a heavy golden door leading underground, bowing with a smile, "Guests with custom orders, please follow me." According to Lei Ya's original plan, she was to enter the underground lab as a custom-ordering client to search for her sister. However, following Xia Feng's suggestion, they decided to have Miss Q go and investigate instead. While Xia Feng and Lei Ya would find an opportunity to sneak into the second floor, splitting their efforts for higher efficiency. As the three wealthy clients went for special-order Evil Beasts, the hall filled with the melodious strains of dance music. Gentlemen invited beautiful ladies to dance under the dim, mellow lighting. Lei Ya, in her luxurious gown, was embraced by Xia Feng's strong hands around her slim waist. Her back stiffened slightly, and her large eyes glanced at her student. Xia Feng's gaze followed Miss Q's leaving direction, seemingly contemplative. Seeing this, Lei Ya relaxed her tense shoulders and neck a bit, following his gaze curiously, "Are you sure your friend will be alright? I've seen her Spiritual Pressure is only Third Rank?" "Don't worry, Ms., Miss Q is a genius," Xia Feng smiled slightly, generously praising. Sёarch* The ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "Genius?" Lei Ya raised her eyebrows, her doubts reserved. Even if she were a genius, she ought to follow the basic laws; a mere Third Rank, once encountering a Fifth Rank, would be outright doomed. "Are you sure she won't be noticed?" "Ms. Fu, don't worry, everything is within the plan." Of course, Xia Feng didn't actually have a plan; it was Mu Qingtong who mentioned she could go down for a look and had already thought of a detailed plan, so Xia Feng naturally supported her unconditionally. Although he didn't know exactly what Mu Qingtong intended to do…
