[ Slacking on the Sidelines: Finally, they've started! I've been itching to get started for so long!]
[ Scholar: What is the exact location?]
[ Yao Yuan: Canglan River, North Suburbs, meet at 8:00 AM the day after tomorrow]
[ Passerby A: Received]
[ Beast Tamer: Received]
The image of the Energy Gathering Tower from that night involuntarily flashed through Qin Ze's mind, and he felt a vague unease.
"Hurry up with the Thousand Faces project!"
A moment later, a response came from Thousand Faces on the Local Area Network.
"What the hell?!"
"Giving birth requires ten months of pregnancy."
Black Mountain Biotechnology Building.
"Boss, our last lab storing Test Subject X was destroyed three hours ago."
The middle-aged man frowned upon hearing his assistant's report.
"Hasn't the news of the experimental subjects being transferred already been released?"
Why bother going to a lab?
The assistant shook his head; he couldn't understand it either.
After a moment of silence, the middle-aged man asked again, "Are you Law Enforcement?"
The assistant replied, "I don't know, it's just one person, but they're very capable."
"Although the laboratory doesn't have powerful guards, its defense system is sufficient to intercept even Level Seven Martial Artist."
However, they were unable to stop that person.
"Our defense system is as fragile as paper in front of them."
The middle-aged man tapped the table lightly with his right hand. "What's the situation on the ground?"
The assistant sighed, "Everyone's dead, and the lab is destroyed."
"However, as you requested, a detailed plan for the transfer of experimental subjects was placed in that laboratory."
"The intruders should now know the location of the test subject."
The middle-aged man muttered to himself, "Where did this madman come from?"
"But since they're here for experimental subjects, let's just throw them all together."
"How did the test go tonight?"
The assistant lowered his head. "All the data has been transmitted back, but none of the people have returned."
The middle-aged man's face was gloomy.
Why are all these strange things happening tonight?
The data came back, but the people didn't.
Was the experiment a success or a failure?
The assistant said, "The data has been checked and there are no problems. This means the Energy Gathering Plan can be executed."
"I've already sent people to the scene; we'll have news soon."
Beep beep beep--
A communication request sounded in the assistant's earpiece.
He immediately opened the white curtains covering the office.
Tap the headset lightly.
The projection was put onto the screen.
The footage was taken by a drone.
The scene was a complete mess.
Several fires were still burning on the ground.
Several corpses of guards could be vaguely seen.
The original location of the Energy Gathering Tower has been replaced by a large pit, from which white smoke is still rising.
The assistant said in a deep voice, "The camp has been attacked; there are no survivors."
"However, the number of corpses does not match the number of people we sent."
The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, "Two possibilities."
"Some of the guards survived, but because the mission failed, they dared not return to report and deserted."
"It's also possible that the Energy Gathering Tower exploded, turning people to ashes, which would naturally make the number of corpses mismatched."
"But regardless of the possibility, our experiment has revealed something."
The assistant asked worriedly, "What about our plan?"
The middle-aged man said without hesitation, "Continue."
Even the operators only had a superficial understanding of the experiment they were conducting.
Even if the attackers were searching for spirits, they wouldn't know our specific purpose.
"It's harmless."
The assistant nodded. "I'll transmit the test data to all the Energy Gathering Tower control rooms right away."
The middle-aged man waved his hand. "Go ahead."
"The day after tomorrow is the deadline, the day of the final battle."
"Will this mark the beginning of a new chapter for our company, or will it become history and be swept into the dustbin of history?"
Let's wait and see.
The assistant bowed slightly and left the room.
An aged voice suddenly rang out. "This is truly a gamble of epic proportions."
"Now the entire Chamber of Commerce is led by you, and all other companies have submitted to you."
"I hope you can lead us to win this gamble."
The middle-aged man got up and went to the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the seaside Sea Capital under the night sky.
He slowly raised his right hand and pressed it against the glass, murmuring, "The results the day after tomorrow will prove that I will be your greatest leader."
The next morning, Qin Ze called Thousand Faces on the Local Area Network.
"Any results yet?"
"Stop chasing after him, we're investigating."
Qin Ze frowned upon hearing this.
This is the first time that progress on Thousand Faces" has been this slow.
A whole night has passed, and there's still not a single clue.
In the past, the results would probably have been known by dawn.
Qin Ze asked, "Have you run into any trouble?"
Thousand Faces sighed, " The Energy Gathering Tower is an SSS-level secret in the company, and it's very tightly guarded."
"Even the people participating in the project are all working independently; nobody knows what the whole project is about."
"Even though I've become the leader of a group all night, I haven't even seen the blueprints for the Energy Gathering Tower yet."
He poured out his grievances in Thousand Faces.
The Son of the Version suffered a crushing defeat.
The other clones immediately began to gloat.
" Good Good Good! Finally, it's shaved!"
"This is truly gratifying! This is absolutely gratifying!"
"When are you going to nerf Brother Devour? The original model has mutated so much, its strength is ridiculously overpowered."
"I second that proposal!"
"..."
The noise and commotion were really irritating to Qin Ze.
"Shut up."
The clones finally quieted down for a moment.
Qin Ze instructed Thousand Faces, "You have one day left."
Thousand Faces: "I'll try my best."
This was the first time Qin Ze had seen Thousand Faces appear so lacking in confidence.
Qin Ze's intuition told him that the Energy Gathering Tower was very likely related to the Correction Mission the day after tomorrow.
In any case, we must thoroughly understand the Energy Gathering Tower before taking any action.
The company's strict control over the Energy Gathering Tower further underscores its importance.
thump thump thump--
The loud knocking interrupted Qin Ze's thoughts.
"Are you awake? Are you awake?!"
"Going out for breakfast!"
Qin Ze reluctantly got out of bed and opened the door.
Outside the door, the energetic Cancer was still knocking.
Why did it take you so long to open the door?
She tiptoed and peeked furtively into the room.
Qin Ze pushed her back down.
What are you looking at?
Hehehe~
Qin Ze was speechless. "Hey, you!"
"Relax, relax~ I'll take you to eat something delicious!"
Cancer dragged Qin Ze out the door in a flurry of activity.
The two returned to the same restaurant as yesterday.
The restaurant staff were on high alert when they saw the two of them, and immediately told the kitchen staff to prepare for overtime.
Looking at the table full of seafood meat, Qin Ze felt a bit of a stomachache.
"You have such a good appetite so early in the morning?"
Cancer's cheeks are bulging, like a hamster.
"It's alright, the main thing is to eat more tomorrow."
What was said without malice may have been taken to heart by the listener.
Qin Ze put down his chopsticks. "What are you going to do tomorrow?"
Cancer chews and chews. "I'm going to do something big that will make that jerk of a woman look at me in a completely different light!"
