Qin Fen finished the last nutrient granule of the unpalatable yet memorable meal on the plate. His plate was so clean that it didn’t need any scrubbing, as no one would notice that it was a used plate if it were to be placed back just like that.
Chen Feiyu pressed a button on his wristwatch, projecting an image to the table. It was a rocky environment. There was nothing there besides the huge rocks. Those rocks formed a plain which couldn’t really be considered a proper plain. Little to no plants could be seen anywhere, let alone buildings.
Qin Fen carefully observed the environment that was being captured by the satellite locked on this coordinate. The imagery could be described as a sea of rocks, as there was really nothing else but rocks.
“If you want to know the truth, go to the Founding Society. They will have the answer that you seek.”
Qin Fen still remembered a martial dao master named Chen Zhi from the team led by Du Zhanpeng on that day had said something along those lines.
Since arriving at Saturn, or since his first contact with the insect warriors, Qin Fen felt that there was always something blurry and confusing to him.
Qin Fen looked at Chen Feiyu, who put on a cruel look. Since the assassination of Chen Feiyu’s sister by the Golden Triangle Founding Society that day, a sense of hatred was formed in Chen Feiyu and acted as his motivation to continue living. It was also a major factor that greatly fueled his drive to improve his martial dao strength.
Whether it was to honor his promise that was made in the Golden Triangle to Chen Feiyu that day or to solve the mystery lingering in his mind, Qin Fen felt the need for him to pay a visit to the Founding Society.
Although they couldn’t spot the presence of the Founding Society in the projection, Qin Fen knew that cameras could be manipulated to deceive its audience. The only surefire way was to check the place in person, just like the previously destroyed Mount Tianwang.
“Are you planning to go and have a look?” Qin Fen looked at Chen Feiyu, “What about the others?”
“Solomon is not back yet, the others are still in seclusion, and Xue Tian is recovering from injuries and also training in seclusion.” Chen Feiyu thought for a while, “Lin Ling is the only one who isn’t in seclusion.”
“Lin Ling?” Qin Fen contemplated in silence. Lin Ling can be said as the only geek among all of the Federation’s snipers who can win against me. Although Xue Tian got the Killer God back, this thing had been in the hands of Elysium for quite some time. Who knows if they’ve broken it?
The construction of Killer God II still needed Lin Ling’s help. Sniper equipment existed to serve the snipers. Lin Ling’s existence was of great importance.
“In that case...” Qin Fen contemplated, “Let’s go, just the two of us.”
Chen Feiyu nodded indifferently. In today’s Federation, there were almost no places Qin Fen couldn’t go with the strength he had. Although the Founding Society was very strong, their fatal drawback was that they lacked top martial dao experts, otherwise, they wouldn’t have cooperated with Elysium.
The overall strength of the Founding Society was very strong, but the drawback restricted their development. At the same time, they posed almost no threat to Qin Fen.
Rushing footsteps sounded from the corridor outside. The colonel who was temporarily in charge of the Saturn’s military rushed to Qin Fen and said, “Lieutenant Colonel Qin, we have just received an invitation from Tagatha from Elysium. He wanted to talk with you. At the same time, we have also received an invitation from Inferno. Qin Guangwang would also like to talk to you.”
A talk could always mean two things: one was to talk with one’s mouth, and the other was to talk with one’s fists.
Qin Fen felt a little lucky. The two major forces, Elysium and Inferno, were fighting against each other on Saturn. This was why the military was not getting attacked even though the location of its base was exposed recently.
Although both Elysium and Inferno had a very bad relationship with Saturn’s military, they did not attack Saturn’s military because they were wary of each other. However, they had to find a way to solve the problem with Saturn’s military.
Among Saturn’s three major forces, the military could be said to be the weakest party. However, no matter which side the military chose to join in, strength-wise, they would be of great help to that particular side. Both Elysium and Inferno could not deny this.
Especially now that Xue Tian took back the Killer God. He had injured Guanyin seriously. This once again told the two forces that Saturn’s military was indeed quite strong. Anyone who wanted to get rid of Saturn’s military in one go would have to be prepared for a great loss, and would then subsequently be defeated by the third party.
A talk. Qin Fen speculated that there was an eighty to ninety percent chance that it was a real talk and not a fight. It was more likely that the two major forces wanted to draw him to their side, thus why they had proposed this talk with him.
Since the last general in Saturn could be drawn in, why couldn’t they do the same to the person in charge this time? Qin Fen smiled, “Tell them I’ve got the message. Just say that I am still in seclusion, we’ll arrange a time after I finish with seclusion.”
“Understood.” The colonel turned and left. He could not help but shake his head and admire Qin Fen. The lieutenant colonel this time had a much greater boldness than the last general. Before this, our general was the one who tried hard to meet with the two forces. After Qin Fen came, he immediately turned the situation from a request to a relatively equal appointment. Looks like Saturn’s military will not have to act too humbly in the future.
The current Saturn’s military was joined by a batch of young martial dao masters and martial dao grandmasters, so they had a huge improvement in strength! It was no longer the same military as the past. Although it was still difficult for them to expand, anyone who wanted to destroy Saturn’s military would need to be mentally prepared to lose their front teeth and be seriously injured.
Although Saturn’s military was not as rich as Earth’s military, it was not that difficult to get themselves a fighter jet. Two Specter Fighters quickly left the busy military headquarters.
The rock sea was much wider than the rock forest in Zhongzhou on Earth, but not many people came here to travel. The only reason was that the rock sea was simply too wide. It was wider than the real ocean on Earth. No one would come even if there were a lot of strange rocks here, even though there were occasionally mutated creatures wandering around. One had to be prepared to die if they were to come here for travel.
Two Specter Fighters flew across the rock sea at a high speed. The life radar scanned the ground again and again, trying to find a tiny trace of life. However, there was no sign of life at all.
“Attention, attention... there are two fighter jets stopping over our base. Should the automatic defense system be activated?”
The piercing sirens echoed, and one after another, questions were asked by a mechanical voice from deep under the rock sea. The busy personnel didn’t stop working at all, as if they didn’t hear the harsh sirens at all. They were either discussing something, staring nervously at the data on the screen, or staring at the changes in cultivating tanks.
“There’s no need to start the defense system. Our defense system can’t stop them.”
An aged voice transmitted words to every corner of the base through loudspeakers.
The Specter Fighters hovered in the sky. Qin Fen had opened the cabin and glided down to the ground. Chen Feiyu followed him and descended to the ground.
Qin Fen observed the surrounding rocks. Everything here looked so genuine. No wonder it could deceive satellite surveillance and aircraft detection.
The surrounding large rocks suddenly started squirming strangely, and the images of these rocks disappeared in the next instant. The area was replaced by a huge piece of metal.
Projection overlay technology. After special processing, it had reached the apex-level of illusory techniques. Not even the military possessed such ability, but it was owned by the crazy Founding Society. Qin Fen had to admire the madman who created the Founding Society. At least they mastered highly advanced technology.
A science power that even Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota admired: if that was still not considered to be the latest high-tech, Qin Fen couldn’t think of any other science power in this world that could be considered high-tech.
The huge piece of metal on the ground slowly moved to the side, but it did not make any harsh metal scratching sound; it just quietly revealed a huge hole. The hole looked like a giant prehistoric beast with its scary mouth opened, waiting to swallow the people who fell into it.
No fierce battles and defenses at all? Qin Fen found that he was not the only one surprised by it, Chen Feiyu gave a puzzled look too.
Both Qin Fen and Chen Feiyu thought that the Founding Society was full of the craziest madmen. If they were to use the Wukong technique to sneak in, it wouldn’t be a problem for them to avoid the defense system. Even so, they openly came here in fighter jets as they were hoping to see the Founding Society’s military defense power on Saturn. However, the Founding Society didn’t activate their defense system at all and chose to open the door instead.
As they walked into the hole, cool fresh air blew out from under the ground. Qin Fen felt that the air was very refreshing. He didn’t move and let the elevator take the two of them down into the underground.
The elevator doors opened to the sides; they were not confronted with dozens of machine guns or any rocket artillery. The place was like an ordinary laboratory. All the technicians seemed to have not noticed the intruders, they were still doing the tasks they were supposed to do.
If it was not the fact that Qin Fen could feel the life aura of the personnel around him, he would have thought that he had entered some virtual reality world and that the people around him were all simulated projections.
“The young men from the military headquarters, please come down.”
An old and weak voice slowly sounded through the loudspeaker. Qin Fen looked curiously at Chen Feiyu, wondering if he could recognize the voice. However, he found that Chen Feiyu’s face revealed a doubtful expression too.
“Go forward along the path under your feet...”
The voice was guiding them. He was not angry at all with the base being intruded.
Qin Fen walked slowly in the strange underground base of the Founding Society. Through the laboratories’ glass windows, they could see the nutrient solution and cultivating tanks that they had seen many times, as well as the strange insect warriors.
At the end of the corridor was a huge metal door, and the voice slowly sounded once again, “Young men, please come in. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Or rather, I’ve been waiting for someone like you for a long time.”
Qin Fen and Chen Feiyu gave each other a puzzled look and they took a step forward again. The thick metal door slowly opened to the sides. A coldness that was in no way inferior to the Arctic’s blasted out of the room!
If it was not the fact that there wasn’t any murderous aura, Qin Fen would’ve really thought that the person hiding in the room had cultivated the Nitrogen Freezing Magic and was planning to attack him.
The coldness and white gas that obstructed their vision filled the entire huge room.
Qin Fen looked through the white gas and looked into the room. At that moment, he was completely stunned. This is...
