The headquarters building of the Green Group has more than 30 floors.
The fire only destroyed the top few floors.
It mainly includes the general manager's office, archives room, computer room, and conference room.
Following the fire, the fire department and Law Enforcement conducted a joint operation.
A long cordon was set up downstairs, prohibiting anyone from entering.
Even company employees are not allowed.
"Although the defenses are heavy, it's no problem for someone like me who's the Son of the Version."
On the Local Area Network, Thousand Faces began to talk eloquently, boasting about how wise and powerful he was.
Qin Ze's face darkened. "Are you done babbling?"
Thousand Faces cleared his throat. "That's all for the beeping."
"Let's get down to business."
"OK."
Thousand Faces sat behind a desk, holding a form in her hand, the file name of which was "Second Batch of Volunteer List".
I went to the archives and the computer room, but there was nothing left.
"The building is currently without water and electricity, and there's no internet. Connecting to the internal network is unrealistic for me."
"However, after a careful search, I still found some clues."
"I'm currently in a department called ' Project Zero Department '."
"People left in a hurry; the scene was messy, and they took all the crucial documents with them."
"However, I found a list of personnel."
As he spoke, Thousand Faces patted the form in his hand.
"I don't know exactly what this ' Project Zero ' is, but the project needs to recruit volunteers to participate."
"The boy's name is on the list of the second batch of volunteers."
Sure enough, it was the company's doing again.
Qin Ze was not surprised at all.
" Project Zero has an extremely high level of secrecy. I estimate that even the company's peripheral personnel involved in this project don't know the specifics."
Even the volunteers didn't know what they were doing.
Qin Ze nodded. "Let's get out of here before anyone notices."
Thousand Faces: "Okay!"
"Oh, right, there's one more thing."
"The fire started in the server room; the airport has the highest security and fire safety standards."
"So..."
The fire was started by the Green Group.
After wandering around the building again, Thousand Faces made a clean getaway.
The investigation at the company has yielded nothing more; now we can only hope that the Taoist might make some new discoveries.
Law Enforcement Department, Judge's Office.
The bald judge sat in his chair, his brow furrowed.
A knock suddenly sounded on the door.
Thousand Faces has returned to work, comes in to report.
"Sir, the Dawn Mobile Squad dispatched by the Chamber of Commerce has arrived."
"We have a total of four member companies in Shi'an City, including the Green Group, which caught fire today."
"They want to take over the investigation into the cause of the fire."
The bald judge waved his hand. "Let them investigate."
Thousand Faces nodded and left the office.
Immediately, the judge picked up his phone and made a call.
" The Mobile Team has arrived. I've assigned them to the investigation, and we'll announce to the public that it was arson by outsiders."
"Well done."
The judge gritted his teeth and whispered, "How much longer?"
The person on the other end of the phone chuckled, "With the arrival of the Mobile Team, our manpower has doubled."
"Don't worry, all of this will be over soon."
The company will not forget your contributions.
The judge breathed a sigh of relief.
"Furthermore, the company needs your cooperation for the next step."
What operation?
The judge's eyes widened as he listened to the plan described on the other end.
"You're insane!"
"It's inevitable that there will be some bumps and bruises, and even injuries or fatalities during the training camp. If you do well this time, the company will give you a generous reward."
After hanging up the phone, the judge's expression turned solemn.
After a moment, he clenched his fist, as if he had made up his mind.
The following day, all the training teams held a meeting.
Teacher Wang announced the content and specific rules of this field training camp.
The training camp was held on Cold Mountain, seven kilometers away from Shi'an City.
The area around Cold Mountain was completely cordoned off, and the school released dozens of beasts below the F-rank and ten beasts of the F-rank inside.
The training team needs to hunt down exotic beasts to obtain Soul Orb, and the team with the most Soul Orbs will receive the reward for this training camp.
This outdoor training camp lasted for five days, during which the training teams could attack each other and plunder each other's Soul Orb.
The assistant coach will accompany the team throughout the training camp and may only intervene if the team is in mortal danger.
Unlike the previous beast combat training sessions, the beasts hunted this time were not injected with a "weakening agent."
All the beasts were at their peak, making this a real battle for the training team, a chance to test their understanding of the theory lessons from the previous two days.
The group boarded the bus and headed to Cold Mountain.
Cold Mountain is nearly 2,000 meters above sea level, and the small patch of snow on its summit is covered all year round.
To prevent the strange beasts released into the mountains from escaping, more than twenty Intermediate Martial Artist were stationed at the foot of the mountain to guard them, and each beast was equipped with a tracking device.
A two-pronged approach is needed to ensure absolute success.
More than twenty teams will enter the mountain from different directions to ensure that they do not meet in the early stages.
Qin Ze took a deep breath. "It's really nice, living in the mountains is really nice."
The fat man nodded. "Indeed, the air is very fresh."
Qin Ze's phone suddenly vibrated in his pants, and he used the excuse of needing to urinate to slip into a nearby grove of trees.
We found something, but not much.
The call was from Taoist priest.
As an outsider, the Taoist possesses the judge's access privileges, allowing him to see more than Thousand Faces.
Qin Ze said calmly, "Something is better than nothing, it's better than nothing at all."
The Taoist said, "There is very little information about the Green Group, or rather, some information has been deliberately erased."
"Nothing was mentioned about their research projects, investors, partners, etc."
"There's only one point: Green Group is a subsidiary of Black Mountain Biotechnology."
"In other words, all of Green Group's projects and research were commissioned by Black Mountain."
Qin Ze raised an eyebrow.
Black Mountain again.
Therefore, Project Zero was carried out by Black Mountain.
Qin Ze then spoke with the Taoist about Project Zero.
The Taoist said in a deep voice, "There's no mistake, it was Black Mountain who did this."
"Next, I'll try to find their secret research facility; it should be located in Shi'an."
"You focus on your training first, we'll meet up after that."
Qin Ze nodded. "No problem."
The Taoist added, "A friend of mine will be coming to help in a couple of days. With the three of us working together, the truth will surely come to light."
Qin Ze smiled.
The "friends" the Taoist spoke of were most likely Fairy.
Qin Ze joined up with the professional team.
Huai Xu was eager to try. "I can't wait to start the hunt!"
Qin Ze nodded. "Then let's begin, be careful."
A professional team ventured into the remote mountains.
Nangong followed not far behind them.
During this training camp, she will only act as a bodyguard and will not intervene unless in a critical situation.
Nangong felt that she wouldn't have much of a chance to make a move.
Qin Ze, at level three, is the pinnacle of combat power in the entire training team.
As all the training teams entered the deep mountains, a thin white mist suddenly began to slowly spread downwards from the mountaintop.
(Chapter 2 will be around 11 or 12 o'clock, those who have school should go to sleep.)
