Early the next morning.
Zhou Fan and Lin Qianqian arrived at the school square.
Xi Yan and Luo Luodong were already waiting.
"For this trip to the Southern District Esper Bureau, they'll send people to work with you," Luo Luodong said.
"The leader on their side is the head of their Execution Department, Shen Lie. He's Fifth Tier, Five Stars, very strong and highly experienced."
"Just ask for him when you arrive. He'll explain the details."
"Understood." Zhou Fan nodded.
"One more thing," Xi Yan added.
"This Super Meteorite landed near the border, very close to Yue Country. They might send people over too, so be careful and avoid getting into a conflict with them if possible."
"Yue Country? They want this meteorite too?" Zhou Fan asked.
"It's hard to say. Super Meteorites are extremely valuable. Although the energy they contain can only be used to strengthen mutant beasts, anything containing energy has value, regardless of its use. And if something has value, people will fight over it," Xi Yan said.
Super Meteorites were unusual to begin with. If people from Yue Country had also discovered the special energy inside these meteorites from outer space, they were bound to have designs on them.
"What should we do if we run into people from Yue Country?" Lin Qianqian asked.
"Follow the Esper Bureau's orders when the time comes, but try to avoid conflict overall. Of course, that only applies if you encounter Espers from Yue Country. It's more likely that you won't run into them at all," Xi Yan said.
"By the way, Director, why aren't you coming with us this time?" Zhou Fan asked.
Luo Luodong had always accompanied them on missions like this before.
But this time, it was just the two of them. Even Luo Luodong wasn't going.
