That night, Lin Feng did not leave the main planet, nor did he sleep.
He had just taken control of the fifth force, and a vast amount of information needed his understanding and contemplation.
By taking control of the fifth force, Lin Feng's undercover progress within the Black Robe organization had significantly advanced.
This action had placed a ceiling on the timeline for Lin Feng to bring down the Black Robe organization.
Previously, Lin Feng had no idea when he would be able to completely eliminate the Black Robe.
But with this opportunity presenting itself and Lin Feng seizing it, the elimination of the Black Robe was now a time frame that could be visibly estimated.
Of course, this also required Lin Feng to accumulate strength and devise plans based on the further information he obtained.
He first reviewed the rules that had been promulgated on the main planet, which had been laid down by Jin.Henry.
Where there were unsuitable points, Lin Feng directly modified and submitted them on his terminal. These new rules would then appear on the terminals of the planet's residents, along with notifications.
Much of this was done to deceive the few within the First Sequence.
If you controlled a force but did nothing and changed nothing, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
After half an hour of modifications and submissions, Lin Feng began to receive a large volume of internal information concerning the force.
This was information that Lin Feng's previous clone, while undercover in Shan Hai, had not had permission to access.
The entire history and structure of the Black Robe unfolded in Lin Feng's mind.
The term "Zero," also appeared within Lin Feng's sight.
However, there was not much information regarding Zero, only a few lines of text.
Lin Feng scanned it at a glance, committing the information to memory.
He understood.
Besides the few in the First Sequence, was he also to face this system called Zero?
Lin Feng stroked his chin, sipping the tea brought by the maid.
The maid stood silently beside him, her hands clasped in front of her.
If Lin Feng did not sleep, she dared not sleep either.
"You may go and rest. There's no need to stand here."
After drinking his tea, Lin Feng waved the maid away.
Lin Feng preferred to be alone when he was thinking.
The maid retreated, and Lin Feng walked to the window, gazing at the scenery outside.
He was currently on the highest floor of the central hub.
This was previously Jin.Henry's office.
Lin Feng disliked using things that others had used, so he had simply waved his hand and replaced everything in the office.
If he were not leaving soon, he would have even considered replacing the entire building.
The central hub was located in the heart of the planet's largest city, which, even at night, remained prosperous.
Looking at the myriad of lights, Lin Feng continued to ponder the previous issue.
Fighting with Jin.Henry of the First Sequence had given Lin Feng a general idea of their strength.
With his current strength, Lin Feng was completely incapable of dealing with six opponents of that caliber.
Moreover, Jin.Henry was merely the fifth force; strength would undoubtedly increase as one moved up.
Therefore, even with the augmentation of the Heart of the Universe and the various items Lin Feng had collected, his chances of victory were not high.
To eliminate them, Lin Feng had to either increase his own strength or find another way, a unconventional approach.
But Lin Feng was no child, so he needed both!
Not only must he enhance his own strength, but he must also seek alternative methods.
After all, above him was the Zero system, whose strength was currently unknown.
However, according to the information recorded, with his new appointment, the Zero system should have come to meet him.
Why had the Zero system not contacted him yet? This was something Lin Feng found perplexing.
Wait! Could it be that the Zero system had discovered something?
The thought popped into Lin Feng's mind, but he quickly dismissed it, deeming it unlikely.
If Zero had discovered something, it wouldn't have allowed him to assume this position.
Even with absolute confidence in him, they wouldn't play such a game...
The current situation was enough to keep Lin Feng occupied for a while.
Lin Feng's rear forces were still somewhat weak.
The few from the Star Race, including the newly incorporated fleet, could barely constitute a fighting force.
The only ones who could truly engage in combat were the descendants of the first generation of symbiotes, and those Transformers nestled on Blue Star, who chased Martina calling her "Mom" all day.
However, the strongest among them were likely the Kryptonians, who were growing at an accelerated rate.
With Lin Feng's artificial "pulling the sprouts to help them grow" kind of funding, the Kryptonians on Mars were developing at an astonishing pace.
But, it felt like their growth rate was still not fast enough...
However, Lin Feng did not dare to accelerate the Kryptonians' power too rapidly. If their strength increased too quickly, these youngsters might become uncontrollable.
He sighed.
He had become a bit too impatient...
Now that he controlled the fifth force, some powerful Black Robe members who belonged to him could form a formidable fighting force.
However, making them loyal to him was no simple matter.
There were not a few of them, and if Lin Feng gathered them together to talk, it was possible that something might leak out later.
Therefore, these individuals could not become Lin Feng's core strength.
After carefully reviewing all the power he possessed, Lin Feng felt that it was far from enough to contend with the Black Robe.
Frustrating! Lin Feng detested these troublesome matters the most!
He ultimately concluded that he should, while improving his own strength, also seek out new forces to join him, and find unconventional methods, preferably internal conflict or something similar, to make the Black Robe organization consume itself first...
Lin Feng ceaselessly calculated the path forward in his mind.
Knock, knock~
Just then, a gentle knock sounded.
Lin Feng frowned slightly, his thoughts interrupted, which displeased him.
His super-sense swept over the door.
Huh? Ophélie?
The visitor surprised Lin Feng.
Old Li was indeed an action-taker. He thought Ophélie would at least come tomorrow, but she arrived so quickly!
Lin Feng gave up thinking and walked towards the door.
Oh well, he hadn't figured out much anyway in this short while.
He opened the door, and Ophélie saw Lin Feng and grinned.
However, she looked somewhat awkward and a little timid.
"Um... Lord Shan Hai, I've come to report..."
Ophélie, like an ostrich, retracted her neck, clearly showing some fear of Lin Feng.
She knew Lin Feng was powerful, but not *that* powerful.
It was supposed to be just a normal annual selection, yet Lin Feng had directly eliminated the boss of his own force. This gave Ophélie a sense of unreality.
Already somewhat fearful of Lin Feng, now that he had become the force's boss, her fear deepened.
Lin Feng understood her feelings but said nothing more.
However, with Ophélie's simple and straightforward personality, she would likely return to normal over time.
"Where is your sister? Why have you been the one out and about lately?"
Lin Feng extended his hand and invited Ophélie in.
He hadn't forgotten that she was a Gemini.
Ophélie, with her head still slightly lowered, curiously observed the interior decoration. This was her first time stepping into such an important place within a force.
How to put it... well, it wasn't as grand as she had imagined.
"My sister is afraid of you, so I've been the one out and about recently," Ophélie replied.
Her usual mature demeanor, in front of Lin Feng, became like her sister's, like a startled ostrich.
