Chapter 234 234: 142, Eternal Apostle!_4
Chen Guang nodded slightly and said, "With the Boss's computing capabilities, when these pieces of information are synthesized, he will inevitably suspect you, Master."
"Clearly suspecting me."
Lin Qing narrowed his eyes, "But in all this time, the Original Research Institute has attacked geniuses invested in by the Intelligent Star Group everywhere, yet they have uniquely avoided finding me. Tang Wanqiu didn't even have the chance to make a move."
"Master, the Boss is very loyal to your father," Chen Guang said. "Since you've inherited your father's Chuanxing Tower, it's like you are his heir, and you also belong to the Autonomy Faction. Actually, that day at the lab base, I wanted to say that as long as the Boss confirms it's you, he logically shouldn't take action against you."
"How many people has this Boss you speak of killed?" Lin Qing shook his head slightly. "I would not want to bet my own safety on his momentary mercy."
He said softly, "Tell the Boss I won't approach them and to wait for me at the designated location."
Chen Guang nodded slightly, "First, I will contact the Boss using the communicator hidden by my father before his death, confirm the situation, and then decide."
Lin Qing hummed in response.
As for whether becoming an Eternal Apostle counts as being saved?
That depends on whose perspective you're looking at it from.
...
Twenty minutes later.
"Yan is about to die, can only hold on for about three days at most?"
After listening to Chen Guang's summary, Lin Qing pondered and said, "Whether it's true or false, at least the information about the three days should be true."
"Yan is about to die; that's certainly true," Chen Guang said. "It's just unknown how much power he has left."
"Since they are still in the Divine Forbidden Land, there's still a chance."
Lin Qing spoke calmly, "There are a few days left, just in time as the Intelligent Star Group no longer dares to send people into the forbidden area to kill Yan. It is estimated that they have found out Yan does not kill patrol inspectors from the Autonomy Faction, and now they only dare to let inspectors lead people into the forbidden area for searches."
Yesterday, Yan's rampant slaughter resulted not only in the deaths of thirty councilors and the chairman themselves but also, crucially, that prodigy from Intelligent Star People born and bred on Earth.
Such a prodigy with a rare Divine Position, whose role in exploring Earth's Treasures was immensely significant, is now dead.
The senior management who issued this order from the Intelligent Star Group must be filled with regret.
But what could the Intelligent Star Group do?
Not wanting to sacrifice their own, they naturally could only let the Inspection Headquarters send people in for the search.
After all, that's the Divine Position Trial area for obtaining an Original-level Divine Position. Anyone without an Original-level Divine Position could freely enter it, and those below Original Life simply cannot initiate the trial.
Even if the trial were initiated, it would just be a waste of a spot. Even for Original Life, only the very top tier had a chance at acquiring an Original-level Divine Position.
"It's perfect, headquarters is currently selecting people; I'll ask Director Xu to sign me up."
...
...
In the night sky, a black medium-sized fighter jet streaked across the stars at nearly ten times the speed of sound, charging towards the edge of the sky.
At this moment, the atmosphere inside the cabin was tense and grave, with elite scouts from the headquarters silently sitting in various places, clearly not in the mood for conversation.
"Gentlemen."
A blond man stood up from the front row of the cabin, turned to look at the elite scouts in the cabin, and said, "In ten minutes, we will arrive near the Second Restricted Area. Let me reiterate the mission for this operation."
"Remember, you're not here to fight, just to search for remnants of the Original Research Institute and confirm their status."
The blond man smiled and said, "This mission is initiated by the Intelligent Star Group, with extremely rich rewards. While there are risks, it is also a rare opportunity, so I hope you all take good advantage of it."
Lin Qing sat in the back row of the cabin, glanced expressionlessly at the other, unwilling to say much.
This 'Inspector' Rodric is a classic member of the Vassal Faction. Last time, when the Outer World prisoners attacked the Inspection Headquarters, this man was seriously injured and had only recently recovered.
Unexpectedly, he went out of his way to lead a squad this time?
However, it was clear from what this Inspector had said, he didn't plan to enter the Second Restricted Area for the search but was just delivering people to the vicinity of the Second Restricted Area.
After all, not one of the surviving inspectors was from the Vassal Faction; Rodric had no interest in going in and seeking death.
At this moment, other than Tang Wanqiu, all the inspectors from the Vassal Faction were searching in the Second Restricted Area.
"Remember, if you find traces of the enemy, especially target number one, after confirming the status of Original Research Institute NO.10, report back as quickly as possible."
Rodric admonished, "You don't have to worry about safety outside the forbidden area, the big shots from the Intelligent Star Group have already arrived outside the Second Restricted Area, constantly monitoring the exit of the forbidden area. The remnants of the Original Research Institute dare not pursue outside."
Lin Qing quietly watched out the window, with his vision, he could already clearly see the vast island shrouded in mist on the sea surface below.
That was the Second Restricted Area, the transition area for the Original-level Divine Position.
The Three Forbidden Areas are located in three places on Earth, each only a few thousand kilometers apart from the other.
The Inspection Headquarters would alert the new recruits about the existence of the Three Forbidden Areas early in their training, prohibiting elite scouts from approaching them.
In fact, the moon, modified by the Intelligent Star Group into a fortress, constantly monitors the situation near these Three Forbidden Areas. Without permission, the inspectors from the headquarters would find it impossible to get close.
The Inspection Headquarters has a certain number of Basic Level Divine Position candidacy spots each year, and only those who are sufficiently outstanding are qualified to attempt.
Those who successfully pass the Divine Position Trial become inspectors.
However, the few pitiful spots available in the past were only for going to the First Restricted Area.
It was the first time for the headquarters' scouts to approach the Second Restricted Area.
What do you think?
