863: Chapter 862: Level One Security!
Good Luck Bursting!
Mountains brim with winds foreboding rain’s heavy pour!
This was an unprecedented crisis of life and death.
The ancients said,
Even when a centipede dies, it does not stiffen immediately.
Families like the Kong Family of Liuli City, prestigious and influential as they are, even on the brink of collapse, would assuredly leave a blast radius of chaos, implicating countless innocents.
Who says the world is cold, people no longer honorable?
Who says when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the wall falls, everyone pushes?
Generals like Kong Hailin, over the years, how many has he promoted?
How many has he helped?
Countless indeed.
Those who owe him a debt of gratitude, those who are thankful and respectful.
Would they easily let Wu Jie off the hook?
Consider the last time.
It was Kong Hailin who had actively sought the sparring session, wanting to show everyone how formidable his grandson, Kong Heng, the champion of the military’s comprehensive martial arts competition, truly was.
What was the outcome?
Kong Heng, aggressive and saving face, while Wu Jie conceded multiple times, he relentlessly pursued, unwilling to relent.
Wu Jie fought back, injuring him, causing Kong Heng to suffer comminuted fractures, and then…
And then Wu Jie was hated by many, believing he had ruined Kong Heng’s promising future.
And this time.
Wu Jie, as if assisted by divine favor, cornered and found Shen Liang, indirectly leading to the Kong Family’s crisis in Liuli City.
Those who wanted Shen Liang dead were certainly many, but the number of people who wanted to kill Wu Jie for revenge was also substantial.
Especially because Wu Jie was so devoted to the state and its people, which would have made the villains hate him to the bone.
The fall of Kong Hailin completely ignited their rage and murderous intent.
In Tianyuan, the Tang Family’s power was immense, rooted deeply.
Zheng had laid out his plans carefully, making any attack exceedingly difficult.
But now, with Wu Jie coming to Tongcheng, wasn’t this giving them the best opportunity to strike?
…
The situation was anything but optimistic!
For so many years, too many had been loyally devoted to the Kong Family of Liuli City, wholeheartedly committed.
In the hearts of many, Kong Hailin was like an emperor in his own right.
So…
Who would assassinate Wu Jie?
How?
They had no idea.
Too many suspects, many identities unknown.
Cautiousness steers the ship for ten thousand years.
Wu Jie had taken a flight to Tongcheng ahead of schedule, and even the flight information was accessible to the reporters.
So…
Finding out which hotel Wu Jie was staying in tonight, which room, was all too easy.
For safety’s sake, Old Mr.
Tang arranged for guards to pick up Wu Jie and stay at a base on the outskirts of the city tonight.
It was a base once under the jurisdiction of Old Mr.
Tang’s former subordinates, where a heavy combined arms brigade was stationed.
Any assassin tired of living could go try their chances against tanks, armored vehicles, armed helicopters…
to see if they could survive.
Wu Jie certainly had to heed Old Mr.
Tang’s instructions.
In fact.
Returning to Tongcheng that afternoon and attending the banquet at the hotel, the Security Bureau had already heightened the security level.
Zheng arranged for his most trusted special service team, who had flown directly from Tianyuan to Tongcheng that afternoon, to provide clandestine protection.
This level of readiness against a formidable enemy showed that the situation was grim.
After all, the one who had fallen was Kong Hailin.
…
Not long after hanging up the phone, the escort guards arrived.
After toasting with everyone, Wu Jie took his leave first.
Leaving the banquet hall, as far as the eye could see, there were people on guard in corridors and corners.
Cropped hair, black suits, carrying black briefcases.
Each one sharp-eyed, vigorous, and robust.
Each one looking as though they could, with bare hands, take on a group of hooligans and thugs.
Of course, what mattered most were their black briefcases.
Often seen in the news, high-level officials visiting or attending important events always have those in black suits accompanying them.
Some holding umbrellas, others carrying briefcases.
There was once a rumor that the briefcase was a strategic nuclear weapons control box, capable of issuing nuclear strike orders in a critical moment.
But in fact…
Wu Jie had previously consulted Old Mr.
Tang’s security guards about the umbrella and the black briefcase.
The black umbrella, compared to ordinary umbrellas, could provide a larger coverage area for sun and rain protection, and was also particularly sturdy.
It could be used as a club for combat, and when opened, its special fabric could resist attacks from armed assailants, offering stab and slash protection.
As for the black briefcase…
It was not any high-tech device, and it could not command nuclear strikes.
It had two types, both controlled by a small button on the handle.
One type, upon pressing, would automatically spring open, and the briefcase handle was actually the handle of a submachine gun.
With one-click unlocking, it would enable a barrage of rapid gunfire.
With the firepower of a gusty storm, assailants would be turned into minced meat.
The other type, once sprung open, the folded ballistic shield would create a robust bulletproof barrier.
Roughly 1.6 meters in height, the thickness exceeding two fingers.
Made with Kevlar fiber, capable of effectively withstanding close-range gunfire and explosive shrapnel.
Thus, these two types of black briefcases, one was a hidden weapon, the other a hidden shield.
Handy in emergencies to both protect key targets and deliver return fire.
Beyond that.
Some bodyguards would dress as passersby or tourists, blending into the crowd.
Snipers and scouts would occupy advantageous terrain ahead of time to set up controls.
If an anomaly was detected, they would immediately apprehend or kill the criminals.
In short.
Such security personnel were absolutely loyal and extremely professional.
The various trainings they underwent day in and day out were to ensure absolutely zero accidents.
For their accidents meant that something significant had gone wrong.
…
First-level security!
Impressive indeed!
From the hall to the elevator, and then to the underground garage…
the whole route was on high alert.
Even in the car, it was of the same model.
The exterior gave no view of the inside, and its bulletproof capabilities were extraordinary.
Even if hit by a rocket or engulfed in poison gas, one would remain unscathed.
Wu Jie believed that tight security would only temporarily prevent some from acting.
He had already appeared at tonight’s banquet and was escorted away by guards, surely to stay at a very secure location.
Any assassin with a shred of sense would definitely not choose to strike tonight.
How would that differ from deliberately courting death?
Tomorrow!
Tomorrow’s highway groundbreaking ceremony would certainly provide a prime opportunity to strike.
All went smoothly, arriving at the defense base without incident.
In the sound of the lights-out bugle, Wu Jie and his group settled into the dormitory building.
And downstairs…
Lo and behold, it was a special forces battalion ready for rapid deployment to ensure the peace of the region, on 24-hour combat duty rotation.
Over three hundred commandos could assemble in one minute and fully gear up for deployment in three…
it was probably the safest place in all of Bing City.
Not to mention, diagonally across was an armored battalion, and behind to the side, an air defense missile battalion.
Thinking of causing trouble?
That’d be tantamount to starting a war!
…
Living in such a great location did mean safety, but there was a problem…
No cell phone signal!
On this long and endless night, I couldn’t even video chat with my wife.
Even though the special agents from the Security Bureau next door brought emergency communication equipment.
But how could I shamelessly use it just to video chat and kill time?
After washing up and lying on the hard bed, Wu Jie didn’t just lay there idly, unwrapping the stack of bedclothes folded like tofu blocks.
Thanks to the big trump card, Detox Pills.
Out of several billion people worldwide, there were bound to be those who were envious and resentful.
Especially over the last couple of days when many developed nations had fallen into unprecedented chaos, a total mess.
So, Wu Jie took advantage of the situation and temporarily suspended their auction eligibility; they couldn’t get their hands on a Detox Pill even if they wanted to.
The international black market prices soared, those who resented me were too many to count.
Thus, Wu Jie reckoned the seventh rewarded task would be completed tonight.
At that time, I could choose anything as a prize from the system store.
Damn!
Just thinking about it was thrilling!
Should I get myself a starship and astonish the whole world?
But…
it’s just a thought.
Too high-profile, not a good idea.
How would I explain that?
People from all around the world would surely want to dissect me to study, right?
Too monstrously talented!
After browsing the store, Wu Jie suddenly remembered that he had amassed quite a few unused lottery opportunities in the past.
The system messages had reminded more than once that these would expire if not used.
With nothing better to do, and the task not yet complete, why not have a go at the lottery!
But…
Looking at the remaining lottery opportunities, there were quite a lot, over thirty.
But Wu Jie knew, with the system’s stinginess, how could he possibly win the big prize?
Indeed!
Not even a hint of suspense.
The first came as seven consecutive ‘Thank you for participating’, which made Wu Jie lose all interest in continuing.
“F*ck, can this get any more rigged?”
Wu Jie hesitated for a moment.
Since they were about to expire anyway, even if they were all ‘Thank you for participating’, I had to use them up.
Who knows, there might be a surprise, right?
Yet, where was any darn surprise?
Four more went to waste.
Wu Jie completely lost interest; nonetheless, he kept on drawing.
On the twelfth attempt, fortune finally turned slightly.
He won a million energy points, but come on, my energy points were nearing fifty billion, a mere million was hardly exciting!
As expected, after a brief bout of decent luck, a string of bad luck ensued.
As the chances were nearly finished, he won another million energy points.
“Ah well!
At least it’s something, not too shabby!”
While reflecting, Wu Jie drew again.
This time…
In the virtual consciousness space, the pointer on the lottery wheel slowed down after passing ‘Thank you for participating’, indicating an inevitable prize.
Could this be a huge stroke of luck?
[Ding!
Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Nuclear Fusion Power Generation Technology Data Package from the lottery!]
Power generation technology?
What use is that?
I’d rather have…
wait a minute!
Holy shit!
It’s nuclear fusion power generation!
That’s the dream power generation technology for all of humanity!
Using deuterium through fusion to obtain massive energy with zero pollution.
Research into nuclear fusion technology was among the top-tier, most expensive scientific problems.
Only a handful of countries in the world could afford to spend tens of billions of dollars annually, but still couldn’t achieve controlled nuclear fusion.
Temperatures too high, energy too intense.
And me…
got it from a lottery draw?
Will good luck follow?
Emboldened to try again, Wu Jie continued the lottery draws.
One ‘Thank you for participating’ after another until finally, luck exploded!
[Ding!
Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Room-Temperature Superconductor Material Manufacturing Process Bundle from the lottery!]
Awesome!
Room-temperature superconductors…
Isn’t this about making ultra-low resistance, ultra-low power consumption electronic components?
And that’s not even the end of it; what follows is…
Chinese Cuisine Grandmaster Skill, Flight Driving Grandmaster Skill, Primary Artificial Intelligence Program Installation Bundle.
I’m not so enthused about the two Grandmaster Skills; it’s just about making tastier food and being able to pilot various aircraft, right?
The real deal is the ‘Artificial Intelligence Program’!
This is the focal point of relentless and expensive research by major tech countries and internet corporations worldwide.
Artificial intelligence signifies big data, IoT, robotics…
All electronic and informative things can form an organic whole.
Though what I got is only ‘Primary’ with intelligence level comparable to a few years old child, that’s still damn impressive!
It can continuously be improved and enhance its intelligence and skills through various learning.
Tonight’s fourth jackpot had all ‘Thank you for participating’ following it, and Wu Jie was quite content.
But on the last attempt, the surprise was huge—a smart factory!
What the heck!
Just provide raw materials, and it can produce various advanced equipment according to the database.
Or input the blueprints and let it intelligently complete the processing.
Not drawing the lottery for a long time has built up so much luck, a single attempt brought a windfall!
But, might I have used up all my good luck tonight and face disaster at tomorrow’s opening ceremony?
At that moment…
[Ding!
Congratulations to the host for completing the seventh rewarded task ahead of schedule, you may select any prize you like…]
Wu Jie, seeing his energy points skyrocketing, hurriedly accepted the eighth rewarded task.
As for picking a prize…
Wu Jie skipped over any technology or skills.
If choosing, choose a true game-changer.
Deities or Buddhas; slay whoever attempts to obstruct!
Let’s see who dares to mess with me tomorrow…
