Chapter 55 Simple Espionage 【Please add to your favorites and follow along】
by SunflowerAs soon as Master Wang entered the room, he heard a strange woman’s cheering voice.
“Haha! The boss is back!”
“Dad! Mom! The eldest son has brought the new bride home!”
Wang Jixuan turned the corner and saw the spacious workshop.
An operating table is placed in the center, with more than a dozen precision instruments of various kinds nearby.
Everything here is for Ling Tong’s benefit.
The second floor should be the living area. Behind the railing, a thin little girl wearing blue overalls and repair gloves was chattering and cheering.
The only door in the second-floor living area opened, and a gray-haired couple peeked out and waved enthusiastically to Wang Jixuan.
Wang Jixuan raised his hand in greeting.
Ling Tong carried two boxes to the right side of the operating table, pushed open a simple iron door, revealing a simple room.
“Is it okay if I stay here?”
Ling Tong said softly:
“My room is next door.”
Wang Jixuan immediately nodded, took his box, and went to the room to make some simple arrangements.
After he finished making the bed, the family of three mechanics came down from the second floor and stood with Ling Tong, looking at him curiously.
Hello! New here!
The girl in overalls shouted happily, took off her repair gloves, and stretched out her right hand.
This is a lovely girl with a well-proportioned but slightly thin figure, ordinary features, a few freckles on her face, and very bright and lively eyes.
“My name is Wan Xiaoqi! I am Major Ling Tong’s future number one mechanic!”
Wang Jixuan shook her hand lightly and smiled, “And now?”
“Uh, I’m currently in room number six… I’ve only been out of school for two years, so I’ll try my best to improve!”
Ling Tong said, “She is quite capable and skilled in network technology.”
Wan Xiaoqi pouted and muttered, “Why is it that he gets to live in a single dorm room right away, while I have to live with my parents? I need my privacy too!”
Ling Tong calmly replied, “To make it easier for me to meet with him alone.”
Wan Xiaoqi stared wide-eyed.
Ling Tong looked at Wang Jixuan and said, “Let me introduce you. This is Uncle Tai, who is in charge of the maintenance of the conventional weapon unit. This is Uncle Tai’s wife, Sister Wan, who is also Xiao Qi’s mother and my chief maintenance engineer for the robotic arm.”
Then, Ling Tong pointed at Wang Jixuan and thought of a precise way to describe him:
“Wang Zheng, the mechanic I recently recruited, is mainly responsible for… well, the routine maintenance of my organic parts.”
quiet.
The entire workshop became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Wang Jixuan’s facial muscles twitched slightly.
Ling Tong’s description was actually quite accurate; he was in charge of the massage, and it was indeed as Ling Tong described.
Uncle Tai suddenly clenched his fist and stomped his foot, excitedly shouting “Finally!” Sister Wan, with tears in her eyes, looked at Ling Tong with great relief.
Wan Xiaoqi went even further, placing both hands under her cheeks, her big eyes filled with pink exclamation marks.
“Our boss is finally in a relationship!”
Sister Wan turned and ran to the corner: “I’m going to make something delicious! We’ll treat Xiao Wang to dinner tonight!”
“drink wine!”
Uncle Tai shouted as he ran upstairs: “We have to drink today! I’m bringing out my treasured wine!”
“Dad! All your wine has expired and turned sour!”
“What do you know! That’s a rare find!”
Wang Jixuan suggested with a smile, “I think it would be better if I explained it.”
No matter how you explain it, they will have all sorts of wild ideas.
Ling Tong turned slightly to the side:
“Let me help you set up your room first, and then please help me press my head down, okay? I haven’t pressed my head down yet for today.”
“Okay, you’re my superior now.”
Master Wang didn’t take it too seriously, and changed the subject, offering a friendly reminder:
“We still need to be careful about that new biology minister; I don’t have a very good impression of her.”
“The four psionicists who appeared today should all be C-rank. That muscular strongman is a telekinetic psionicist, and he did seem inclined to attack you earlier.”
Ling Tong thought for a moment and said, “I’ll report to my superiors. Please try to minimize going out in the future.”
“Okay, by the way.”
Wang Jixuan asked:
How often do Blade Beast attacks occur?
“Perhaps, we usually encounter them once or twice every two weeks here. They are all low-level bladed beasts that roam around.”
Ling Tong introduced:
“The attacks mainly occurred below the mine, and I have already dealt with one of them.”
“Okay, I’ll pack up first. You can come over anytime you need a massage.”
Wang Jixuan pointed to his room.
Ling Tong responded and raised her right robotic arm, waving it gently.
Master Wang closed the door very gently.
…
When you’re traveling, you have to find your own identity.
When Wang Jixuan massaged Ling Tong’s head, he specifically asked Wan Xiaoqi and Uncle Tai to watch closely.
He actually doesn’t like being misunderstood.
After Ling Tong fell into a deep sleep on her own bed, Wang Jixuan quietly led the two away and gave them a spiritual massage.
The two new colleagues were immediately amazed.
Uncle Tai exclaimed, “Wow, Xiao Wang! Did you study this before? I suddenly feel so relaxed, and my back doesn’t hurt anymore. Could you give my wife a massage later too?”
“Okay,” Wang Jixuan said with a smile, “I may have a talent for this. I learned it after studying it for a while. I will still need to learn the skills of a mechanic from you later.”
“no problem!”
Uncle Tai sighed:
“My wife and I are quite old, but Ling Tong is still young. There are also many young people in the team, but they are all on the front lines and haven’t come over.”
“Our only wish now is to live a few more years and use our skills to help Lingtong live past forty.”
Wang Jixuan was somewhat puzzled: “Hmm? Why do you say that?”
Wan Xiaoqi glanced at Ling Tong’s room, sighed, and whispered:
“The transformation of the Battle Maiden puts too much strain on her body. Her internal organs must be replaced gradually, and her organ data must be monitored every day.”
“When the eldest is about thirty-five years old, she will become a true cyborg, but usually, the human brain of a cyborg will break down within five years.”
Uncle Tai whispered, “This is also the first lesson our team must learn. The Battle Maiden has dedicated everything to human civilization and suffers immense pain at all times. We must alleviate her suffering.”
“No wonder the boss’s health data has been improving lately!”
Wan Xiaoqi was full of praise:
“So it was you who did her body maintenance!”
Wang Jixuan smiled and shook his head, then asked, “Are there frequent battles with the Blade Beasts on the front lines? What’s the mortality rate for our profession?”
Wan Xiaoqi: “Um… well…”
“The front line is definitely much more dangerous than the rear.”
Uncle Tai said with a smile:
“Our struggle with the Blade Beasts is a fight for survival. Either we eliminate the Blade Beast invaders, or the Blade Beasts extinguish human civilization.”
“Our team has a turnover rate of about two to three people per year, and so far there have been zero retirements.”
Wang Jixuan cooperated by putting on a shocked expression.
Uncle Tai said, “Therefore, my wife and I will not keep anything to ourselves. We will teach all the knowledge of mechanics to every young person in the team.”
Wan Xiaoqi said with a grin, “Dad! Don’t scare him!”
Wang Jixuan said solemnly, “I am also capable of making contributions to humanity.”
—After he is able to kill the SS-level psionicist and the strongest blade beast.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
Wang Jixuan also wanted to take the opportunity to inquire about the circumstances surrounding the attack by the Blade Beast.
He was only half a step away from the Gathering Spirit Realm. Normally, it would take about a month and a half to cultivate. If he could get three low-level blade beast cores, he could easily step into the Gathering Spirit Realm.
With spiritual consciousness, he can create relatively complex magical artifacts, which will boost his combat power to a higher level.
Before he could speak, his senses twitched, and he detected several figures approaching.
The surface campsite in the outer C area was already quite lively, and it became even busier in the evening.
However, the four people that Wang Jixuan noticed were walking quickly towards ‘Ling Tong’s supply station’ from three directions at the same time, and they all had a strange fluctuation on them.
Beep—beep—
An alarm sounded outside the workshop.
“What’s the matter!”
Wan Xiaoqi lunged at the several screens that lit up beside her, and Uncle Tai also jumped up from his chair.
Wang Jixuan looked at the monitor screen, and the image of two men and two women approaching him came into his view.
Before Wan Xiaoqi could even operate the system, the self-sensing weapons installed in various locations had already locked onto the four people.
A clear, electronically synthesized female voice announces:
“This is a classified military facility. According to Military Management Regulations No. 2230, deliberately approaching this place will result in a defensive counterattack from our side.”
“This is a classified military facility, and in accordance with military management regulations…”
The four people didn’t react at all and continued to approach step by step.
Wan Xiaoqi, who had never been on the battlefield before, panicked a little: “Dad! What should we do!”
“Prepare the electric capture net!”
Uncle Tai’s voice was very decisive, and Wan Xiaoqi quickly pressed two buttons.
Wang Jixuan watched from the side with his hands behind his back… He couldn’t quite understand what was making the father and daughter so nervous.
The four people are about to come into contact with the container.
“put!”
Uncle Tai gave a soft shout, and Wan Xiaoqi immediately pressed the button, producing a series of clicking sounds outside.
On the monitor screen, four figures were simultaneously caught in a net falling from above, their bodies trembling as they collapsed to the ground.
Wan Xiaoqi breathed a long sigh of relief.
“Dad, what do we do next?”
Wan Xiaoqi asked in a low voice:
“The operating manual doesn’t mention how to handle humans either.”
“You’re still too green.”
Uncle Tai muttered to himself:
“The most dangerous time for me was when the front-line supply depot was surrounded by Blade Beasts. Hundreds of Blade Beasts rushed towards us. We held out for three minutes and forty-two seconds until we ran out of all our self-defense ammunition. At the last moment, the mech forces finally came to our aid… How about we capture them and question them?”
“We do not have law enforcement authority.”
Wang Jixuan reminded him:
“If there is a law enforcement team in the camp, contact the law enforcement team; if there is no law enforcement team, ask the local army to come and help.”
“Moreover, these four people are acting strangely. They may be controlled by the mimicry blade beasts. I suggest giving them a mental check-up, and we should also upgrade our defensive firepower.”
“This should just be a test.”
“Okay!”
Wan Xiaoqi immediately began contacting the defense forces stationed in Area C.
Uncle Tai turned his head and looked at Wang Jixuan with some surprise, praising, “Not bad, young man, you remain calm in the face of danger.”
Wang Jixuan shrugged and spread his hands: “There are fierce battles every few days in our fortress. Although I have never seen a Blade Beast, I often deal with people.”
Uncle Tai believed it.
A few minutes later, more than a dozen soldiers, panting heavily, quickly arrived near the supply station.
Uncle Tai stepped in and briefly negotiated with them, giving them a copy of the surveillance video recording.
The team leader apologized repeatedly and promised that they would increase patrols in the area later.
About fifty meters away from the supply station, a burly psionicist, dressed in dark gray overalls, hid in the corner of the tin shed, coldly watching the scene unfold.
A cold smile crept across the psionicist’s lips.
‘They don’t even dare to fire directly? They’re just using stun nets? They’ve really overestimated these guys.’
He pulled his hat down low and walked quickly away into the distance.
The psionicist was unaware of this.
The image of him hiding in the corner vaguely appeared in Wang Jixuan’s mind.
Wang Jixuan opened his eyes in the room, the hand seals he had been forming slowly dissipated, and he lowered his head to ponder for a moment.
This guy really has his eye on this area.
‘Rank C, psychic power user. Even without a sniper rifle, I doubt I could defeat such an opponent.’
“Moreover, the other party is just a vanguard; touching him will attract the attention of the Thirteenth Division. They probably suspect that Wang Zheng is Mu Liang.”
‘I need to figure out a way to legitimately eliminate this psychic, using the military to warn the Thirteenth Institute, while also avoiding drawing attention to myself.’
Wang Jixuan pondered for a moment, then looked up at the neighboring house where some noise had started.
Ling Tong woke up.
Master Wang pushed up his black-rimmed glasses, his eyes gleaming with a flickering light, and soon he had a general idea in mind.
I’ve got a powerful backer, so I’ll hang around with him.
The release date should be noon on July 5th. It was originally scheduled for the 1st, but after calculating the time, I realized the free period wouldn’t last a month, so I postponed it to the 5th to release a few more free chapters.
I suddenly had to start writing two books at once, so I didn’t have many resources at the beginning. It’s also a new genre to try, so I’m asking you guys for help on the 5th! It’s okay if the results aren’t great. I got 3,000 average subscriptions for “Abyss Solo” and it went on sale. After I finished writing it, I got 17,000 average subscriptions. The most important thing is to write a complete, interesting story with well-developed characters.
Also, although the main story of “Fairy Father” was finished a long time ago, and I’m currently updating free side stories, “Fairy Father” is also a work that I’m quite accomplished at and that’s in a relatively important stage of its creation. The side stories and the final chapter are also very important. I can only add more updates here after “Fairy Father” is completely finished. Please understand, as I might not be able to update as much as I’d like when it’s released here.
This work came about because it was inspired by a story, but we can’t just focus on the inspiration and ignore the integrity of the story.
