Chapter 604: Chapter 280 Human Race Great Era, Incomplete Inheritance

June 5th, weather: overcast.

Today, the sky over Mist River City was gloomy and dark, with Level 5 winds howling.

At the airport, by the runway exclusively used for international airplanes, stood a middle-aged man with glasses, exuding a strict aura, and Freya Louise.

At that moment, the middle-aged man glanced at the time and reminded her, “Miss Flora, it’s getting late. Your aunt and I should be departing soon.”

“There’s an important energy conversion experiment going on that I have to rush back to oversee.”

Freya Louise replied calmly, “Wait a bit longer.”

“…Is there something else?” Elvis Louise asked somewhat puzzled.

Freya Louise looked towards a girl not far off and spoke faintly, “A classmate of Miss Flora’s is rushing here to see her off; he is also her only ‘friend’ here.”

Since he is Miss Flora’s only friend here, we can wait a bit longer.

Within Mist River City, a figure sped through at a speed invisible to the naked eye, crossing a street in the blink of an eye, weaving through the passing sedans.

Under the influence of supersonic speed, the winds blared, causing the windows of those sedans to buzz.

At the same time that Jack Clark was moving through the city at supersonic speeds, at the South Sky Martial Height which guarded Mist River, an energy wave detection device flickered to life.

“High-order energy burst detected, in rapid motion. The emission of spiritual will waves is being detected… Identity confirmed, safe.”

Under the cover of supersonic speeds, Jack Clark crossed tens of kilometers in just a few minutes and reached the airport, his figure flashing as he leapt onto the runway from the side.

Suddenly, Jack Clark stopped and, looking at the girl in the white dress standing in the distance, a smile appeared on his face: “It seems I haven’t arrived too late.”

The raging wind whipped around, causing the girl’s hair to dance wildly. Upon hearing his words, she pursed her lips into a smile, “You didn’t have to rush, you know. I said I would wait.”

Jack Clark smiled, “For me now, running a few tens of kilometers is no different than taking a stroll, so there’s no such thing as rushing.”

“Remember to call me when you get there, and you can message me if there’s anything. We’ll meet in the mythical world.”

“And be careful when you pilot the No.1 Mech.”

“If you can’t ward off the mental contamination, choose to abandon it. For the Human Race right now, having one more or one less King-level strong man doesn’t make a big difference.”

“Once I break through to king-level, any demon king or Great Demon King will be blasted apart with one halberd strike. I’ll take care of your part as well, so don’t feel too much pressure.”

Although that No.1 Mech sounds mighty, capable of blasting apart Mythical Giant Beasts with a single strike, it has significant flaws, including mental contamination and bodily assimilation.

Faced with Jack Clark’s caution, the girl nodded lightly, “I’ll be careful.”

While Jack Clark and Freya Louise said their goodbyes, Elvis Louise glanced at the distinguished youth, then down at his wrist where the number 7 flickered faintly, and couldn’t help but murmur.

“Miss Flora, this youth is the classmate you mentioned?”

Freya Louise nodded, her tone cool, “Yes, they’re classmates.”

“At this age, to have reached the Seventh Layer of True Martial…” Even for a top-tier Simon Mecha expert like Elvis Louise, it was a shock.

Since when did True Martial in Eastern Summer develop to this point where a Senior One freshman has a Seventh Layer Heaven cultivation? Or is this guy an exceptionally monstrous exception?

As Elvis Louise stood astonished, Jack Clark and Freya Louise had finished talking and walked over. She introduced him, “Jack Clark, this is my father, Elvis Louise.”

“Dad, this is my classmate, Jack Clark.”

Jack Clark said politely, “Hello, Uncle.”

Elvis Louise also nodded slightly, “Hello.”

After the greetings, Elvis Louise couldn’t help but take another look at Jack Clark, as if trying to discern something from the elegant youth.

Freya Louise hugged Freya Louise a bit reluctantly: “Aunt, I’m leaving. I’ll come back to see you when I have the time.”

Freya Louise’s gaze was warm as she said, “Go ahead.”

Freya Louise turned to Jack Clark, “Goodbye.”

She waved to Jack Clark, then turned and followed her father onto the airplane.

As the modified airplane took off, a touch of sentimentality appeared in Jack Clark’s eyes. With Freya Louise’s departure, there was no telling when the two of them would meet again.

After all, even within the mythical world, the bases guarded by Simon and Eastern Summer were not together.

He was only slightly sentimental after all; it was not a life-or-death farewell.

It was then that Freya Louise suddenly said, “With the descending of ancient relics, the Second Great Era for the Human Race is about to arrive.”

“The Second Great Era?” Jack Clark asked with a look of inquiry.

“The First Great Era was when the Giant Beasts descended, sparking an upheaval in the mythical world. This led to the first descent of ancient relics as the two realms’ forces intertwined.”

“It was also the first generation of Innate Awakened Ones who gained immensely within the relics that allowed the Human Race to rise swiftly, suppress internal strife, and firmly establish itself in the mythical world.”

“Now, after decades, we have more geniuses in the alliance, with more people meeting the under-twenty requirement. Over the next ten years, there will be a surge in Human Experts.”

“With your talent, as long as you step onto the Road to Becoming a God, you will quickly break through to king-level.”

“However, before the Path of the Gods emerges, don’t seek resources for advancing your cultivation. Those are no longer important to you. What you need to do is find a way to obtain more incomplete Inheritances.”

Jack Clark slowly said, “General Louise, are you referring to Inheritances in the form of ‘books’?”

“Not just ‘books’, it could also be incomplete statues, a mundane broken sword on the ground, or even a few characters inscribed on a wall.”

“These Inheritances are in fact the fragmentary insights of some powerful beings before the destruction of the previous human civilization, some of which even pertain to laws or even higher realms of information.”
