The door of the Glaston III opened automatically and David sat down in the soft, cushioned seat. As soon as the car detected David’s identity bracelet, it automatically switched on the power unit.

The Glaston III hovered slightly above the ground, remaining at a height of 0.3 meters. Then the garage door opened, and the car automatically drove out of the garage, a map of the entirety of Pelan City appearing in front of David.

David was still underage, and his authority was too low. Hence, he did not qualify to drive the car on his own and could only turn on the auto-pilot mode. The entire journey was controlled by the city’s traffic system.

Seated on the comfortable seat, he enjoyed the stability and silence present in the car as it drove onto the avenue.

The traffic of Pelan City, or rather, the traffic of the entire Planet Rocky and the Star Federation, had to be mentioned.

Given the technological capabilities of the Star Federation, flight had long since been easily attainable, and the technology had advanced very far after more than ten thousand years of development.

However, be it in the galaxies near Battlestar or more peaceful galaxies, the people followed a strict principle where only residents with the appropriate authority could fly.

Ordinary citizens like David could only drive cars that hovered 0.3-1 meters above the ground.

The air traffic was also divided into several levels. The higher the level, the more permission it required.

As soon as David left in his car and turned onto the avenue, he could sense someone observing him.

It wasn’t his perception, but what the Shadow Servant detected while seated beside him.

He panicked, the aftermath that he had been worried about having finally arrived. He just didn’t understand what others would covet from a high school student like him.

However, the truth was that he suspected that Trainer Jeremy was trying to kill him using the sacrificial manual.

In fact, Trainer Jeremy had actually managed to do so, David’s predecessor having been killed by the sacrifice.

The observant gaze was most likely Trainer Jeremy trying to check up on him, to see if he was dead or alive. Perhaps, after finding out that he hadn’t died, he would continue trying to kill him.

However, he was not worried. Just by looking at the patrol hover cars that flew through the sky from time to time, he could tell that, at the very least, no one would dare to blatantly kill him.

The Glaston III was a self-driving car and David didn’t have to control it at all. Hence, he relaxed and controlled the Shadow Servant beside him, its body flying up and moving through the car to go outside.

Through the Shadow Servant’s eyes, he saw a burly man sitting in an ordinary, inconspicuous car.

However, that person wasn’t Trainer Jeremy, whom David had suspected he was at first. David was pretty sure he didn’t know the man, but judging the way the man looked at him, the man definitely knew who he was.

The Shadow Servant could only be ten meters away from David, only allowing it to get a short look at the burly man’s face before flying away with the Glaston III.

The ordinary car had started its engine and began to tail them after David’s Glaston III drove past, which made David nervous.

While David was nervous, he was also relieved to discover that the other party was just pulling away to tail him, with no intention of catching up with them.

After discovering that the burly man trailing behind was not dangerous, David stopped being concerned about the stalker.

He could sense the speed of the Glaston III, which soon stabilized at 70 kilometers per hour, which was not the maximum speed of the Glaston III.

In fact, the maximum speed of the Glaston III was 500 kilometers per hour. However, there was no need for that in the city, especially since David didn’t have the authority to travel at such a high speed.

The power base that allowed the Glaston III to have such a high-speed capacity was related to Kryptonite.?However, although the Glaston III was an excellent car, it couldn’t afford to use Kryptonite as a power source.

The Star Federation’s research on Kryptonite lasted 20,000 years, during which other forms of energy had emerged. That being said, the convenience of using Kryptonite and the large-scale availability of it throughout the entire universe allowed it to successfully suppress all other forms of energy.

One of the biggest reasons for that was that after the Kryptonite was used, the remaining Kryptonite crystals could directly absorb the light energy of the stars and store it within itself with the help of a conversion device.

Although the energy stored in the Kryptonite crystals was nowhere near the vast amount present in the original Kryptonite, it was far more convenient, safe, and economical than other forms of energy.

What surprised David the most was that there was no nuclear energy in this world.

Perhaps the existence of Kryptonite made the scientists of this world have a less dire need for energy, or perhaps the advancements of technology in this world were in the right direction.

Of course, this did not mean that there were no powerful weapons that were comparable to a nuclear weapon in this world. The antimatter cannon on a large battleship was powerful enough to destroy small planets once charged and activated.

In cities like the one David lived in, the energy blocks in the Glaston III would not require replacements, even after a year’s usage.

David began to develop some wild ideas. He was amazed by the advanced technology of this world, but he couldn’t help but think of the terrifying bugs that they had been fighting for tens of thousands of years.

The bugs were fighting against the Star Federation and the Great Divine World by themselves. So he could imagine how massive their strength was.

As he thought about it, the Shadow Servant, who was seated behind the car in stealth mode, was also keeping an eye on the car that was tailgating them. Keeping a great distance away from his car, it seemed that the man did not want to be discovered by him either.

At this moment, the Glaston III slowed down and David saw the gate of the police station.

He stepped out of the car and the Glaston III automatically drove to the side of the parking lot.

The Shadow Servant followed him, and the stalker seemed surprised that David had gone to the police station, driving away without pulling over.

After David scanned his identity bracelet at the door, an arrow appeared on his identity bracelet, which was his tracker in the police station. He was not allowed to stray away from his designated route.

He disliked that feature even though it maintained order.

Of course, it was not impossible to change that little detail. As long as one had enough authority in Star Federation, they would be free to go wherever they wanted.

For now, all he could do was follow the direction of the arrow and go to the designated location.

The target location was the police station’s conference room, which had a floor size of 300 square meters, making it a very large space.

At this moment, the spacious room was rather noisy and there were sounds of crying as well.

“My child had received a special admission letter from Yark University. You just explained that it is an accident caused by a wanted criminal. I’ve already made inquiries and there were four defensive drones chasing after him at that time, which caused the tragedy,” an infuriated middle-aged man hollered.

Although Yark University was inferior to Nan University, it was still a key university in Planet Rocky, especially its School of Mathematics, which produced many famous people.

The fact that the boy managed to receive a letter of offer from Yark University meant that he was very outstanding. It was no wonder that the middle-aged man was so angry.

The middle-aged man’s words also stirred the emotions of the people around him. Since this morning, the families of those victims had all arrived here to demand an explanation. They wanted to get to the bottom of the truth and wanted those who were responsible to be severely punished.

“My child had the hope of becoming an armorer. Who was the one who ordered the drones to attack? I demand a strict investigation!” another angry man pointed at the police officer in front of him, questioning him loudly.

The man’s questioning made the crowd even more agitated and the scene began to become chaotic.

David suddenly thought of the red Mathematics (99% Beginner), red orb, and wondered if he had gotten it from the middle-aged man’s child.

As for the man who said that his child had hopes of becoming an armorer, it was likely that he was the owner of the Bodywork (70% Beginner) Knowledge Orbs or the Heavy-axe Mastery (33% Beginner) Knowledge Orb.

He looked at the two men somewhat apologetically, feeling a sense of guilt towards everyone who was present. He felt like a thief, having stolen the belongings of people who had already lost their kin.
