Ofelia, however, found it rather strange.
"I have a peculiar feeling that they can even shield themselves from higher-dimensional sight within a certain range."
Ofelia furrowed her brow as she spoke.
"I don't know why I feel this way, but my eyes are telling me so..."
After speaking, Ofelia sighed, feeling somewhat useless.
Her eyes had always been her strength, but ever since meeting Lin Feng, they seemed to have gone on strike. No matter who she looked at, she couldn't get any useful information! This made Ofelia quite frustrated.
Lin Feng, on the other hand, was somewhat surprised by the four words Ofelia had spoken: higher dimension!
"When you say higher dimension, do you mean four-dimensional, or..." Lin Feng quickly asked.
Ofelia shook her head in distress.
"My eyes only tell me so much..."
Lin Feng rolled his eyes. What a disappointment.
The extraterrestrial twins, before they had fully matured, were a handful.
Just then, a ruby on the Superman gauntlet on Lin Feng's wrist lit up.
"We can indeed block some higher-dimensional visual perception."
"But it consumes immense energy."
"It only activates when we detect probing from higher-dimensional beings..."
The one speaking was An, who resided within the ruby.
An had originally offered to transform into a necklace, but Lin Feng felt it would be strange for a grown man to wear a ruby necklace, so he had temporarily placed it on the Superman gauntlet.
"You can sense four-dimensional life forms?" Lin Feng was astonished.
An paused for a moment: "With sufficient energy, to a certain extent..."
The lack of denial meant they could indeed see them!
Lin Feng's heart was filled with a complex mix of emotions.
Since his first encounter with the mechanical life form race, Lin Feng had repeatedly raised his expectations of their strength, but it seemed he had still underestimated them.
He noted this information down, feeling the need to introduce An to Martina as soon as possible.
Initially, his intention had been born out of a mischievous curiosity, to see what kind of reaction would occur when the Spark of Mechanical Life, which could grant life to mechanical beings, collided with another mechanical life form.
But now, Lin Feng was no longer so confident.
Could Martina really perform modifications on a mechanical life form capable of shielding itself from four-dimensional observation?
The image of the usually absent-minded Martina flashed in his mind, and Lin Feng shook his head.
However, the experiment still needed to be conducted. He would schedule it for a few days later.
In the next few days, Lin Feng planned to sort through the information he had gathered about the Fifth Force. Once he felt more stable, he would have Shanhai take over.
"Speaking of which, Ofelia, do you still remember that cat-eared person on the preparation planet who wanted to talk to me?"
Lin Feng inexplicably recalled this incident.
That cat-eared person's name... he seemed to remember it as Dionna.
Ofelia nodded.
"Of course, I remember. She said she wanted to chat with you after the selection process."
"It should be tomorrow or the day after. The third stage of the challenge should be held tonight," Ofelia said after glancing at her terminal.
After Lin Feng swiftly cleared the second stage, the remaining Black Robes seemed to be spurred on, completing their missions one after another.
This resulted in this batch, despite having the most difficult missions, being the fastest to complete and of the highest quality.
However, Lin Feng no longer had the time to play with them. He was already a faction leader, albeit a rebellious one in secret...
"Hmm, this cat-eared person seems to have some substance too," Lin Feng said, glancing at his terminal.
Even though he was no longer participating in the selection, he hadn't forgotten that the selection was jointly organized by all the bosses of the First Sequence. While he wasn't participating, he could still brazenly enter the backstage to view the information and perspectives of each contestant.
For the second stage, Shanhai's name was undoubtedly in first place, followed by Aaron in second, who had also cleared it a couple of days prior.
As for Dionna, she was fifth.
Ofelia's results were no longer relevant. Lin Feng had directly removed her from the selection, and her name was no longer on the leaderboard.
Ofelia was now Lin Feng's direct subordinate and didn't need to join any auxiliary groups. She would not be lacking in treatment or missions.
Lin Feng opened the terminal backstage reserved for leaders.
This differed from the terminals of other Black Robes.
In the leader's backstage, functions such as issuing Class-S missions and dispatching orders were available.
Moreover, the exchange warehouses for various restricted levels and groupings were also open, and at more favorable prices.
"What were you going to redeem? I'll redeem it for you," Lin Feng said, resting his chin on his hand as he browsed the pages.
He hadn't forgotten his promise to Ofelia.
In a few days, he would take Ofelia and An back to the Marvel universe.
He would leave the rest to Shanhai.
Ofelia's eyes lit up at his words.
"I want the Tracking Compass, the Bastion Rock, the juice of Mokudina, and the Flashback Pocket Watch..."
Ofelia had already prepared a list of items she wanted to redeem, but she hadn't had the opportunity to ask Lin Feng to do it for her.
Of course, she hadn't been of much help. The items Lin Feng had asked her to look at yielded no useful information, so she hadn't dared to bring it up.
Now that Lin Feng had suddenly brought up the topic, Ofelia naturally wouldn't pass up this opportunity.
After listing over ten items, Ofelia finally stopped.
Her small face flushed, and Ofelia shyly lowered her head.
"Did I ask for too much..."
"Perhaps we should forgo the last few items..."
Lin Feng propped his chin and glanced at Ofelia, chuckling.
It was alright; she still had some conscience.
"It's fine. It won't cost me many points anyway," Lin Feng said, searching for the items Ofelia mentioned without any pressure. He then redeemed them one by one and placed them on the table.
This warehouse wasn't his, so he didn't feel any pain if something was missing!
"Is there anything else you desire?" Lin Feng asked after completing the redemptions.
He glanced at his remaining mission sequences.
He had won the Faction Warfare, and all of Jin Henry's assets in the Central Hall now belonged to Lin Feng.
The missions and points required to redeem these items were a mere drop in the bucket for him!
Ofelia shyly shook her head.
"These, these are enough!"
"Alright, take these back and play with them for now. In three days, I'll take you to another universe."
"Oh, and also..."
As Lin Feng spoke, he took out his magic wand and pointed it at Ofelia's personal terminal from afar.
"Now, you can freely remove this terminal. And it won't be able to obtain your accurate information anymore."
When going to the Marvel universe, even if Ofelia didn't explicitly reveal her information, it didn't mean she wouldn't passively leak it.
Lin Feng didn't believe that this Black Robe terminal was without its secrets!
"I understand!"
Ofelia happily packed the items on the table, completely unfazed by what Lin Feng had done to her terminal.
