BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28 - 28 After-the-fact_1
Jin Wuji’s defense was exactly what Pei Jinye coveted.
Now that he had absorbed the other’s Extraordinary-Human Genes, it meant that as long as he cultivated properly and his physical body became strong enough to truly become King Kong Indestructible, it would definitely not be a problem.
When that time came, he wouldn’t be afraid of being stabbed in the back by his “own people”!
Pei Jinye pondered his current state.
“I need to replenish my vitality and physical strength . so I have to make sure to practice the “Drawing Blood Art”, and I can’t skimp on the money that should be spent.”
“Killing in dreams to snatch Extraordinary-Human Genes Hoping for good news from Black Shark about the technique for determining spiritual power, what a pity it’s only for determination, not enhancement .”
“Relying solely on “Dream Hypnosis” is just too slow, this technique itself requires the cooperation of the other party .”
Pei Jinye sighed.
It wasn’t like he could say to someone before a fight, “Be good, let me take your pulse first .”
“But there’s some good news .”
“Now that I’ve devoured Jin Wuji’s abilities, after a bit more cultivation and strengthening, I won’t be afraid of getting stabbed in the back Speaking of which, Heaven God still has twelve Guardians I wonder what abilities they all have.”
11:18 PM.
Black Mirror Lane.
Three fully armed Night patrollers were scanning the scene for traces.
“A fight took place here Upload the data to Punishment Heaven, and simulate the crime scene ”
[Data uploaded, estimation three minutes .]
A tall Night patroller suddenly squatted in a corner: “I found human hair Punishment Heaven, run a genetic test .”
[Jin Wuji, male, 27 years old, third-class citizen Identity: Heaven God Group Security Team Vice-Captain .]
The voice of [Punishment Heaven] came again: “10:47 PM, intrusion detected in the system of the Light Research Institute . 10:53 PM, researcher Sun Lei suspected to be kidnapped . Kidnapper’s physique determined to be Jin Wuji.”
“Possibility 1: Jin Wuji’s team invaded the Light Research Institute, encountered a sniper attack from a mysterious organization in the process;”
“Possibility 2: A mysterious organization invaded the Light Research Institute, Jin Wuji kidnapped a researcher, a case of betrayal .”
“Possibility 3: ”
The detailed process was continuously generated under the analysis of the smart brain [Punishment Heaven].
The three Night patrollers exchanged glances.
“This is big!”
“Report immediately!”
Heaven God Group.
Inside a dark room.
“The target has been taken.”
“Who did it?”
“According to speculation, it was people from the Old Gods Association Silver Art, Tai Yuan, Red Rose, and one individual with an unclear identity.”
“Old Gods Association again!”
“They must be eyeing the genetic mutation experiment too! Where’s Jin Wuji?”
“Suspected to be dead.”
“It seems Silver Art hasn’t lost the strength that legends speak of ”
“Anyone who can make it on the Federation’s blacklist is no weakling . What’s our next move?”
“File a report, Jin Wuji stole the group’s experimental data and defected from the group .”
“Understood .”
“Phew .”
Pei Jinye stepped out of the room, exhaled gently, and his gaze naturally fell on Silver Art, who was stealthily stealing light by bumping into the wall.
“You’re out?” Silver Art turned his head and saw Pei Jinye, immediately exclaimed with excitement.
Pei Jinye unfazed: “Were you waiting for me?”
“Yes.” Silver Art said as if it was a matter of course.
Pei Jinye hid his gaze and stepped forward: “Is that necessary?”
“You’re my teammate.”
Pei Jinye couldn’t help but look over.
As if completely carefree, Silver Art said: “Like Heavenly Calculation and Shadow Bow, Tai Yuan and Red Rose, they are teammates, you were assigned to me by the higher-ups, so of course I have the responsibility to protect you.”
Pei Jinye thought back to the great battle from a few hours earlier and indeed owed a lot to this guy.
“Thanks.”
Silver Art was startled.
Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow at him What was this guy getting excited about?
“Is there a problem?”
Scratching his head with embarrassment, Silver Art said, “It’s just it’s the first time anyone has thanked me ”
Pei Jinye: ” ”
This Silver-faced powerhouse, who moved with such decisive swiftness, sometimes came across as a child, naive to the ways of the world
He could he have split personalities?
“By the way, I heard that guy mention you’re ranked 17th on the Black List. What’s that about?” Pei Jinye asked casually.
Still immersed in joy, Silver Art explained, “It’s a wanted list. The Federation posts someone’s name there if they think he’s dangerous I don’t know why they posted me though. I’ve just been seriously completing missions, I really haven’t been killing people randomly ”
” ”
Pei Jinye silently shifted his gaze away, understanding completely.
He quickly changed the subject, “Speaking of which, do you have any method to enhance spiritual power?”
Scratching his head, Silver Art replied, “Sorry, I really don’t know. But do you need it badly?”
Pei Jinye nodded his head, not having expected much from him.
“By the way, what grade of Extraordinary does Jin Wuji belong to?”
After thinking for a while, Silver Art said, “Probably the Top Peak of the First Grade, about to break into Second Grade.”
“So you’re Second Grade?” Pei Jinye pondered.
Lan Feng had just started out, at the most, he would be at the early stage of First Grade.
With the buffs from his dual series stacked, he was probably mid-First Grade, and now he had added another Extraordinary ability, but since he had yet to practice it, he was far from being able to compare with someone like Jin Wuji, who was at the peak of the First Grade
Scratching his head, Silver Art said, “I’m not Second Grade maybe I was before, but I’ve lost my memory.”
Pei Jinye looked over in surprise.
With his hair twisted into two cowlicks, Silver Art said, “Headquarters said I’ve been to Da Peng City before, so I applied to come here and try my luck, hoping I might regain my memory.”
Pei Jinye fell silent.
After a moment, he nodded, “Good luck with that.”
Exiting through the back door of the Red Rose Bar.
Before parting.
In a low voice, Silver Art said, “You’ve got to be extra careful these days; things are getting complicated, and it doesn’t feel too good ”
Pei Jinye nodded, “You too, take care.”
After speaking, he vanished into the night.
Silver Art watched him leave for a while, then turned to go when Black Shark appeared beside him: “You seem to really like him?”
After a moment’s thought, Silver Art said seriously, “Are you planning to compete with me for a teammate?”
” ”
Black Shark took a deep look and turned to walk away.
The hovering police cars were especially busy tonight.
Pei Jinye dove headfirst into the slums.
Not long after, a harmless-looking young man wearing a peaked cap walked out from another exit. The lighting was dim, making it impossible to see his face clearly.
At 11:51 P.M. that night.
Pei Jinye arrived at his own place.
The first step was to check the room for signs of other people’s presence.
He didn’t care how someone would try to identify his genes
For one, Black Shark and the others didn’t know the real identity of “Arrogance”.
Secondly if they caused trouble with headquarters over identification, Black Shark himself would be held accountable.
If “Arrogance” turned out to be the real deal, he would have to answer to headquarters and go through the procedures once again, which could result in losing his leadership position due to insufficient ability.
That was where Pei Jinye’s temporary confidence lay.
His only concern was the master who had involved Lan Feng back in the day From his memories, that master had brainwashed Lan Feng and knew him very well. It was possible that some “little device” had been implanted in Lan Feng.
“I’ll just take it one step at a time.”
Even Pei Jinye himself hadn’t anticipated that within just a few days, he would transform from an ordinary high school student into a Three Series Extraordinary.
Once the weekend was over, it would be time to return to the normal routine of school life.
