Chen Yu guessed correctly.
Ling Xiuhe's purpose in coming to Jiangyang City was indeed to protect him.
Moreover, Ling Xiuhe's behavior was not a purely personal behavior, but an SSS-level secret order mission issued by the empire's center.
In fact, Ling Xiuhe was not the only one to accept the task.
After Chen Yu and Ling Xiuhe left.
From the teleportation array in Jiangyang City, five taboo powerhouses once again walked out.
As soon as these forbidden powerful men appeared, they quickly dispersed and surrounded the entire Jiangyang City into an iron barrel.
Some may think this is making a mountain out of a molehill.
A mere top scorer in the college entrance examination, is he worthy of being protected by such a taboo powerhouse?
Is this too much of a waste of the empire’s powerful resources?
The imperial center of the Tenglong Empire doesn't think so.
The current emperor and the twelve elders of the Council of Elders, who are at the top of the pyramid, even feel that this kind of protection is slightly insufficient.
Chen Yu's performance in the college entrance examination ranking competition went far beyond saving the dignity of the Tenglong Empire and hundreds of strong men.
In the eyes of ordinary people, 5 million ranking tournament points may be just a number, and it may only represent Chen Yu's promising future.
But in the eyes of the empire's top leaders who have more information, it is precisely this number of points that represents a being who will be infinitely great in the coming years, rising like the rising sun.
Indeed, in the college entrance examination ranking competition, a certain candidate's final score is full of chance.
The candidate's status, the type of copy, and even the luck in the copy will all affect the final score.
However, when a certain chance event has enough samples, the observer can calculate the probability of this chance event.
When the probability is 100%, it can be determined that it will definitely happen.
This rule applies to the connection between candidates' college entrance examination ranking points and future achievements.
Integrate the points data of previous college entrance examination rankings and compare them with the achievements of corresponding candidates.
You will find that when the points reach a certain threshold, all the candidates whose points are higher than this threshold have achieved some kind of achievement without exception.
This kind of threshold delineation ranges from taboos to demigods.
Since the Tenglong Empire can only judge a candidate's future up to a demigod, is a future demigod worthy of being protected by so many current taboo powerhouses?
The answer is worth it.
And, well worth it!
Even if a hundred or even hundreds of eighth-level taboo powerhouses were sacrificed.
If it can ensure the birth of a tenth-level strongman, it will be absolutely worth it.
Moreover, what Chen Yu has shown at this stage is almost certain that becoming a demigod is definitely not the end!
As a result, new problems arise.
Since points definitely represent future achievements, does it also mean that this person will not perish before achieving such achievements?
Since it will definitely not perish, then why bother to protect it?
The answer is that before the future becomes reality, it is still full of uncertainty.
As the strongest force in the Blue Star World, Tengkong Empire cannot bet on the absolute authenticity of big data.
It's like a lottery player who wins five million in a lottery ticket.
Before the funds were put into his card, he would not think that he would definitely get the five million.
He will be frightened in his heart and will calculate all the possibilities of losing his chance to receive the award.
You won’t feel truly at ease until the prize is pocketed.
The same is true for the attitude of the empire's top officials towards geniuses.
Moreover, who can tell clearly whether the protection from the empire is one of the necessary conditions for these geniuses to grow up?
After all, the college entrance examination system is deeply ingrained, and the empire's protection system for geniuses has been in place for many years.
Of course, there are also people who clamor that "geniuses should go through hardships, and a dead genius is not a genius."
But this kind of person always only has the qualifications to make noises, but never the power to make rules.
The senior officials of the empire never paid attention to these clamoring people.
You can carefully cultivate 100 geniuses and get 99 strong men, or you can let go or even raise gu to get 100 geniuses and get 1 strong man. Even a fool knows how to choose.
The latter is also applicable to cultivating geniuses, but that is a last resort when resources are scarce.
Moreover, geniuses are people with feelings.
It is self-evident whether a strong person has a sense of belonging to a force that raises gu, or a force that takes good care of him when he is weak.
As for why this group of taboo strong men did not provide personal protection to Chen Yu.
This is another level of painstaking effort.
Or rather...system.
As we all know, ordinary people don’t like their privacy to be completely exposed, let alone a genius?
It would be very uncomfortable to be followed by a group of strong people you don't know all the time.
Therefore, it is not Chen Yu that this group of taboo experts is targeting.
But...
Everyone around Chen Yu who may pose a threat to Chen Yu!
Of course, Chen Yu didn't know about all this.
He believed that Ling Xiuhe's coming to protect him was an extraordinary phenomenon.
As for more taboo strong men specifically to protect themselves?
Never thought about it!
At this time, he was using a disguise mask to make a public face, and walked into the Treasure Pavilion leisurely.
"Deng, Deng, Deng——"
Chen Yu knocked on the cabinet at the front desk.
The round-faced girl followed the little Lolita away, and her successor was a voluptuous beauty with mountainous peaks, exuding a refreshing and strong fragrance.
"Dear guest, do you need anything?"
The charming beauty smiled, the corners of her eyes slightly raised, and her eyes became narrow and narrow, giving her a charming look.
"Contact your general manager for me. I want to pick up the goods."
Chen Yu placed a black card with gold edges in front of the charming beauty.
This is the Jubao Pavilion Super VIP Card that Little Loli gave him before leaving, as a voucher to pick up the water of life and pay the balance.
It is said that it is an internal special offer by Zhang, with a 20% discount on the purchase and a 10% increase in the selling price.
After the little Loli disappeared, it was the first time for Chen Yu to come to Jubao Pavilion.
The charming beauty picked up the VIP card, her expression flashed with surprise for a moment, and then she immediately returned a smile and said to Chen Yu: "Okay, distinguished guest, please wait a moment."
After a while, the charming beauty led a young man with gold-rimmed glasses out.
"Distinguished guest, please come with me." The young man said politely, "The transaction amount is too large, and there are many people in the hall, so I'm afraid it won't be a good idea."
Chen Yu glanced around and found that few people were there.
Even if there were people, they were quickly led by the shopping guide to the store of related products upstairs.
However, there is no need to argue at this time.
Chen Yu followed the young man through the familiar backstage passage and entered the study.
This place used to be Little Loli's den, and it holds many beautiful memories of Chen Yu and Little Loli.
For example, feed the little Loli lollipops, treat the little Loli to eat hot dogs, show the little Loli goldfish, and so on.
"Dear guest, is this the ten units of water of life you ordered?"
After Chen Yu sat down, the young man sat opposite Chen Yu, pushed up his glasses, and asked with a smile.
"That's right." Chen Yu nodded.
"This batch of goods was shipped out of the warehouse in the name of Yun Guanyue." the young man said,
"Can I ask, what is the relationship between your distinguished guest and Yun Guanyue?"
"Also, what is the purpose of your distinguished guest purchasing the water of life?"
The young man's voice was very calm, and it seemed like he was just asking casually.
But in the eyes under the lenses, a sharp gaze flashed from time to time, as if it was about to pierce Chen Yu.
"I don't seem to have any obligation to answer your question." Chen Yu frowned.
"When you sell Jubao Pavilion, do you still need customers to explain in detail how to use it?"
