Chapter 52 - 42 Battle Girl

Chapter 52: Chapter 42 Battle Girl

Wuliang, that Heavenly Venerable.

A fallen leaf brushed past the back of Master Wang’s head, accompanied by a somewhat desolate autumn wind, and spun off to one side.

Is this that investigation team?

Where did the girl Zhou Zhengde and Wei Na introduced me to for the date go?

Just then, a pretty girl came out of a passageway not far away, wearing thick high heels and a dress. She looked around, constantly holding and gently rubbing her stomach, her body carrying a slight scent of toilet freshener.

Wang Jixuan: ...

Lingtong turned and walked back to the bench, and that Level Spirit Ability User quickly got up.

This middle-aged looking Spirit Ability User seemed to have a stronger physical constitution than Wen Heisen, and at the moment, he followed behind Lingtong, constantly complaining:

"No! Lingtong! Don’t you have the record of my bio-energy waveform in your database? I was just joking with this young man, trying to test his strength! It’s part of my mission! What did I do to deserve this? What crime did I commit?"

"We’ve only been apart for two years, Lingtong! How could you forget about your important comrade in arms?"

"If it wasn’t for me carrying the nuclear bomb to blow up the lair of that General Level Blade Beast, could you have escaped? Besides! We were notified about the team list too! You owe me compensation for emotional distress!"

Lingtong said indifferently, "It was just a reflex. I detected a mass of biological energy rapidly approaching. Don’t forget the type of mission this time, loss of control of Spiritual Energy."

"All right, all right! It’s all my fault for being a Spirit Ability User!"

The slightly sharp-faced and monkey-cheeked Spirit Ability User uncle complained loudly, then frowned and looked at Wang Jixuan.

Wang Jixuan tried to relax and smiled at the uncle.

The latter extended his right hand:

"Hello, I am Zheng Shiduo, a Level C Spirit Ability User here to investigate the violation of rules by the Spirit Ability Users of Fortress 76! Don’t worry, I’m not with the two Spirit Ability Users you took out; I serve in the Middle Ages Basin Battle Zone Black Bear Special Team, where eighty percent of the personnel are from the Military. The situation here is complicated; they always like to have cross-authority over us."

"Hello."

Wang Jixuan shook hands with the other party lightly.

Neither tried to test the other, and Daoist Wang was making an effort to restrain himself.

Then Wang Jixuan took two steps back and said with a smile, "Excuse me, I have a friend I need to meet."

Lingtong looked at the girl who was approaching and asked softly, "Are you on a... date?"

"Not really a date, just getting to know each other," Wang Jixuan explained simply, "introduced by Captain Zhou."

Lingtong had already elegantly taken her seat and picked up the novel. With her long legs crossed again, she said softly while looking at the book, "You could take what just happened as a practice run, do it again, and the results would be quite good."

Zheng Shiduo understood something, exclaiming "Wow" as a gleam of wisdom filled his mung-bean-sized eyes.

Wang Jixuan smiled and walked towards the girl, gesturing for her to talk somewhere a bit farther away, meanwhile keeping his distance from this Spirit Ability User.

He could still hear Zheng Shiduo’s teasing.

"Lingtong, you’ve grown up, huh! Hahaha! No wonder you were so reactive just now; it turns out you’re the one who’s emotionally perturbed!"

"Captain Zheng, we haven’t seen each other for two years, and you’ve become more talkative."

"This young man is pretty handsome, and he’s got a good figure too! My mission, besides investigating the misconduct of Fortress 76’s Spirit Ability Users, is to make contact with him and study where his power comes from. Why don’t you get a little closer to him for my mission’s sake?"

"A forty-something elegant gentleman should have already learned the art of moderation, including when to be silent."

"Hahahaha! Are you blushing? Hahahaha!"

"Level 1 Destruction Laser Cannon, ready."

"Damn! It’s just a joke! You’re a candidate for a Terrifying Mecha Driver! You’ve dedicated everything to human civilization! Forget about such nonsense as love! I don’t care for it!"

"Stand down."

"Huh—why did they transfer you here from the battle zone? Are they planning to blow up Fortress 76 and rebuild a new one? Shouldn’t we evacuate this place in advance?"

Zheng Shiduo’s muttering grew fainter.

At the entrance to the security office, Zhou Zhengde hurried over with several young team members from the security team.

Wang Jixuan looked at the pretty girl beside him.

She lifted her hand, brushed the strands of hair beside her ear, and asked softly, "Hello, team leader, nice to meet you..."

"Well, we might not be very compatible, I mean in terms of personality."

Wang Jixuan said earnestly:

"I’m a bit busy with some matters right now, you see..."

The girl was taken aback, then quickly said, "That’s okay, we can meet and chat some other time if we have the chance; let’s just leave it at that for today, goodbye!"

She turned and ran towards the nearest passageway, her high heels clicking with a rapid frequency.

Clearly, her stomach was still uncomfortable.

Wang Jixuan breathed a sigh of relief.

Despite a bit of a hiccup, he had successfully rejected the offer.

Primordial Yang stable, Dao Heart undisturbed.

However, there was a powerful Spirit Ability User in this investigation team... Weren’t all Spirit Ability Users created by the Thirteenth Institute? Could they really be trusted?

Daoist Wang contemplated his next move with some concern.

...

Half an hour later.

In the conference room of the Thirteenth Floor security office.

Zhou Zhengde sat in the main seat, sorting through the documents in his hand, while his subordinates busied themselves with their tasks.

Lin Bo distributed photocopies of the documents to the other six attendees, Lin Xiong filled seven tea cups with steaming hot water, and Lin Yong adjusted the projector that hadn’t been used in a long time.

Soon, Lin Bo, Lin Xiong, and Lin Yong left the conference room, lined up outside the door, preventing anyone from approaching.

Zhou Zhengde stood up and gave a military salute.

With the exception of Wang Jixuan, the other five stood up and saluted in return.

Wang Jixuan quickly followed suit.

"Hello everyone, I am Zhou Zhengde, captain of the security team of the Thirteenth Floor of Fortress 76. I declare that the ’1023 Incident’ investigation team is officially established!"
