Chapter 153: Little Rat
The most important aspect of changing the academy’s situation was transforming it from a stepping stone into an emerging force.
There were three prerequisites for becoming a force—intelligence, assets (relics), and talent (tower climber).
The core of talent was founded on the previous two cores as the foundation for training or introduction.
Finally, for the academy to become a force, it needed to stockpile enough information and relics.
That was not something that one or two people could accumulate.
It would gradually take more people to increase from less to more over time.
Wang Wen and Li He discussed how to shorten the growth process as much as possible.
He had an inexplicable belief in his ability to solve the intelligence problem.
Wang Wen had intended to say that, but the other party beat him to it.
That was rather awkward.
Wang Wen said he could solve the relics to alleviate the awkwardness.”
Li He was not convinced.
He mocked him for his bullsh*t.
Wang Wen, for his part, did not believe he could solve the intelligence problem and mocked him for bullsh*t too.
So the two started betting again.
The two had a new bet after the previous time when one said that peach and plum were everywhere and the other said to seek revenge on the Tiansheng Group.
That was to compete with 10,000 pieces of information, 10,000 pieces of non-duplicated information, or 10,000 relics with varying effects to see who could make the most rapid progress.
Wang Wen was unconcerned about how Li He gathered 10,000 pieces of information.
He was only concerned with how quickly he could collect 10,000 items with various effects.
If he acted shamelessly, he could buy some of the basic items from the market, and he should have enough points to buy all that.
That, however, was not the solution to the problem.
Even if he truly purchased 10,000 items using the same method, winning the competition would be meaningless.
The goal of the wager between the two was akin to mutual supervision.
If the academy could truly become a force in the future, with Wang Wen in charge of items and Li He in charge of intelligence, the two would undoubtedly want to contribute to that.
That was particularly true for Wang Wen. He had repeatedly collided with other forces. The failures of the First Consortium and the Regional Security Department had taught him a valuable lesson.
No matter how deep one’s foundation was, a certain level of strength was required. No one would be willing to negotiate with one otherwise.
That strength was not referring to one’s strength.
According to Deputy Chief Jiang, the Tiansheng Group treated them to hotpot as if they could bribe the Regional Security Department.
Even if it were Wang Wen, even if he treated them to a hundred hotpots, he would not be able to convince the Regional Security Department to assist him in capturing them.
The person who invited them to the hotpot was more important than the number of hotpots.
The person clearly referred to power.
Otherwise, no one in the Regional Security Department could match Wang Wen’s personal strength that he was able to draw with Mo Ran. He would only conflict with the Regional Security Department if he actually killed the chief. He needed a large group of trustworthy people to assist him in entering the tower to collect relics. Being involved in a conflict was pointless.
He would cultivate his own power since that was the case!
Wang Wen was delighted to discover that the academy, which he had previously avoided, was waiting to be rebuilt. It was an excellent time for the base to rise.
The rise of power required unquestionably rare and valuable items that could not be purchased on the market or were extremely difficult to obtain.
Even if the majority of the 10,000 items could be purchased, there had to be a few rare treasures they would need.
Otherwise, even if he won the competition, he would feel vindicated.
That was about assisting himself in establishing his own starting point. It was pointless to deceive himself.
Furthermore, he assumed Li He must have felt the same way. The information would not always be purchased in large quantities, and some of it would be classified as sect treasures that would not be shared with outsiders.
Wang Wen needed to find a way to collect rare treasures as soon as possible for the sake of the bet.
It seemed like he had to cooperate with Chen Hansheng as soon as possible.
He would do it if he wanted to.
After buying the house in full and completing the procedures, Wang Wen registered all kinds of access control fingerprints and facial recognition at the property office. After that, he made a phone call and walked down the street. Time was tight, and he did not even have time to look at the new house.
In fact, he had the bright idea of robbing the Tiansheng Group Group’s relics warehouse.
It was simply ideal for both harming the enemy and benefiting oneself.
Unfortunately, his strength was insufficient. He might be able to fight a few rounds against the elite team on the 500th floor. It was very likely that they would not be able to escape once he alerted the three old monsters on the 600th floor.
Taking advantage of the fact that they could not care less about him then was the best way to maximize his strength.
He was not supposed to go to the tower for a month.
He could use Chen Hansheng’s people to assist him in collecting relics and resources. He would be able to break through to the 500th floor the next time he entered the tower.
Wang Wen dialed the number for Chen Hansheng.
It did not get connected.
A few figures appeared in front of him, blocking his path.
He raised his head.
A few burly men guarded Qin Dongbei, Tiansheng Group’s big boss!
Wang Wen rolled his eyes and immediately turned around to escape.
Unexpectedly, a middle-aged man who appeared to be on fire with a unique stance slowly emerged from the shadows.
Based on that face, he was one of the Tiansheng Group’s three old monsters!
That particular group did not enter the tower that week!
Wang Wen’s brows furrowed tightly. “I have finally caught you, you little rat; I have been looking for you for a long time,” Qin Dongbei said.
Wang Wen quietly moved to the side, turning his head and asking Qin Dongbei, “What business do you have with me, Director Qin? It appears that the feud between Shen Rushuang and me is personal. Why are you worried about it?”
Qin Dongbei sneered as he took out an empty sealed box and tossed it in front of Wang Wen, saying, “Do you know what was originally inside? The man in green’s severed hand! But it vanished not long ago, along with all the cells and blood used in the research institute for analysis and comparison. What do you think happened?
Wang Wen did not open the sealed box, but as he retreated, he asked, “Did it get stolen? What kind of person would want to steal something like that? Have you checked the security cameras?”
Qin Dongbei ignored him and continued to say, “Three million points to care for the academy’s teachers and students’ families. You are a wonderful benefactor. Where did you get so much money?”
Wang Wen laughed as he noticed the old monster not far away. “What kind of logic is that? Can’t a student have money? I am not allowed to pick up a wallet and sell it to win the lottery?”
“I figured you would deny it,” Qin Dongbei said as he tossed another piece of paper.
It was the location of a certain man in green.
It was the information used to exchange for the bounty.
Wang Wen examined the crooked handwriting on the paper, which he had purposefully written with his left hand.
So he pretended to be perplexed and turned to face Qin Dongbei.
Qin Dongbei sneered and motioned with his chin to the paper, saying, “Stop pretending. That’s the paper on which you collected the bounty. ”
Wang Wen still needed time to gather his spiritual power, so he chatted briefly, “You can recognize a person with just a piece of paper? Was it covered in my sh*t?”
