Global Superpower: I Control All Elements

Chapter 19 Text Message With a Hidden Secret

Qin Feng quickly asked, “Who were those people? What did they come here for?”

“They came to retrieve a phone.” Chu Chu casually replied while cooking.

The sizzling sound of braised pork ribs filled the pan, releasing a tempting aroma.

“Retrieve a phone?”

Chu Chu explained, “Brother, here’s what happened. I went to resign today, and on my way back, I found a phone at the factory gate and brought it home.”

“Later, I found out that the phone belonged to a big client of our boss.”

“They called me and asked for the phone back, so I gave them our home address. They sent someone to collect it.”

“When they left, they even gave me 10,000 Tong coins as a thank-you gift, but I didn’t accept it!”

Her tone carried a hint of regret at this point.

After all, being from a poor family, she was a bit tempted by the 10,000 Tong coins.

Upon hearing this, Qin Feng roughly pieced things together.

The phone likely belonged to Lin Xuyang.

Afterward, Lin Xuyang called to ask for the phone back, and Chu Chu agreed to return it.

Lin Xuyang sent someone to retrieve it.

Chu Chu is still a kind-hearted girl, after all.

But here comes the key question: Chu Chu had already returned the phone, so why did Lin Xuyang still make a move?

“Chu Chu, did you look at the phone? Was there anything unusual about it?” Qin Feng asked.

Chu Chu thought for a moment, “Unusual? Not really. But before they took the phone, there was a strange message on it.”

“Oh? What did the message say?”

“The message said: ‘Three days later, at midnight, Luo Hua Mountain transaction!'”

Qin Feng nodded slightly. “That message is indeed strange! Luo Hua Mountain is over 300 miles away from Yunyang City, a place where ferocious beasts and monsters gather.”

“What kind of transaction couldn’t be done in the city and had to be carried out in such a dangerous place, and in the middle of the night?”

“Yes, I thought so too. But they’re all big businesspeople, so it’s not surprising that they do some odd things. Brother, I made your favorite braised pork ribs today, smell that!”

Chu Chu dished out the braised pork ribs from the pan, and the aroma spread through the air.

Qin Feng saw several dishes already on the table, including braised crucian carp – it was a rich dinner.

“Little girl, did you see who sent the message?” Qin Feng asked with concern.

He had a vague feeling that Lin Xuyang’s future actions against Chu Chu might be related to that message.

Perhaps it wasn’t a normal transaction, but something shady, or even a conspiracy.

That might be why Lin Xuyang wanted to silence her.

“Brother, I just glanced at it without paying much attention. I think the sender was someone named Zhou something Tong.”

Chu Chu tried to recall but couldn’t quite remember.

She hadn’t paid much attention to it at the time.

Qin Feng, however, quietly kept it in mind.

“Brother, why are you asking so many questions? It’s not like it has anything to do with us…”

“Just curious,” Qin Feng pretended to ask casually, “Little girl, let’s move houses in a few days.”

Qin Feng felt that this place was no longer safe.

Lin Xuyang already knew their address.

The refugee area was already the most chaotic part of the city, and if something happened, not many people would care.

The safest place was the city center where the citizens and elementalists lived. There, many experts resided, and crime was rare.

“Brother, moving costs a lot of money. Where are you planning to buy a house?”

“Of course, in the city center where the citizens live!”

“But that will cost tens of millions! Even in a slightly better location, it could cost over a hundred million. Brother, do you have that much money?”

“Don’t worry about that. We’ll have it when the time comes.”

“Besides, I’m not a citizen yet. Even if we have a house, I don’t have the legal right to live there.”

“When I break through to Elementalist, you’ll become a citizen. Just wait a few more days! Chu Chu, here, this phone is for you.”

Qin Feng took out the phone he had prepared.

“Brother, you’re amazing!”

The little girl excitedly took the phone, flipping through it with joy.

My older brother really is impressive.

He had promised me this in the morning, and by evening, he had made it happen.

“Little girl, you keep cooking. I’m going to take a shower, and I’ll give you another surprise later.”

“Brother, what could be better than giving me a phone?”

“Haha, you’ll see soon enough!”

Qin Feng said as he found some clothes and went to shower.

In the bathroom, his mind was pondering the situation.

What kind of deal was happening between Lin Xuyang and that Zhou something Tong?

Also, the day after tomorrow is when Chu Chu was scheduled to patrol outside the city.

With my current strength, I am confident I can protect Chu Chu, as long as we didn’t encounter a two-star monster.

But the key problem is that Chu Chu’s danger likely wouldn’t come from beasts or monsters but from Lin Xuyang.

That meant Lin Xuyang might make his move the day after tomorrow.

Qin Feng’s eyes shone sharply.

With his current strength, he was confident in protecting Chu Chu.

But he needed to break through to Elementalist as soon as possible.

Only then could he make Chu Chu a citizen and get her out of this dangerous place.

Moreover, he needed to kill Lin Xuyang and destroy the Lin family, all of which required more strength.

Twenty minutes later, Qin Feng walked out of the bathroom feeling refreshed.

After a day of battles, coming home to a nice bath felt heavenly.

As he finished his shower, Chu Chu had already prepared the meal.

“Brother, here’s your tea!”

The little girl even brewed tea for him, clearly trying to please Qin Feng — the phone gift had worked.

“Do you like the phone?” Qin Feng asked with a smile.

“Yes, I love it!”

“Little girl, here’s another surprise for you.”

Qin Feng took out a Level-1 Gene Serum (Perfect Grade).

“Brother, what’s this?” The little girl asked curiously.

“You’ll know once you drink it.”

“Okay.” The little girl obediently drank it down.

The Serum quickly took effect.

The girl felt her whole body heat up, as if every cell was coming alive, and her face turned red without her realizing it.

This sensation lasted for ten minutes before fading.

The little girl looked at herself in surprise, feeling that something about her had changed.

“Little girl, how do you feel?” Qin Feng asked with a smile.

“Brother, I feel like my strength has increased a lot. What did you give me to drink?”

The little girl was excited.

In this era, strength was highly valued, even for girls.

That was the aesthetic shaped by society’s values.

“A Level-1 Gene Serum. But my gene Serum is different; it has no side effects.”

“So, does that mean I’m now a Level-1 Genetic Warrior?”

“Yes! And you’re even stronger than an ordinary Level-1 Genetic Warrior!”

“Wow!” The little girl was thrilled. “This is amazing! I’m a Genetic Warrior now!”

She was nearly overjoyed.

For a refugee, becoming a Genetic Warrior was a distant dream.

Even the weakest Level-1 Gene Serum cost 2 million on the market, far beyond their means.

But once someone became a Genetic Warrior, they had a chance to change their fate.

Seeing Chu Chu so happy, Qin Feng was also content.

“Brother, why doesn’t your Gene Serum have side effects? How did you manage that?”

“Don’t worry about that. Oh, I also have Level-2 and Level-3 Gene Serums here. You should drink those too.”

“Wow! Brother, you have more? You really struck it rich!”

The little girl felt like she could die of happiness.

She quickly drank the two Serums.

It took a full half-hour for the effects to finish.

Qin Feng’s eyes gleamed with curiosity.

After taking the Serums, Chu Chu had grown 3 centimeters taller, her body noticeably developing, and she was on the path to a more mature figure.

Certain parts of her body were already showing early signs of development, and she even had a small waist now.

Chu Chu had always been a beauty in the making, and now her charm was growing even more.

At this rate, she would eventually become a stunning beauty.

“Little girl, how do you feel?”

“Brother, I feel like I have endless energy. Let me try it out!”

The little girl ran over and grabbed a spatula with one hand, easily bending it as if it were dough.

Her eyes sparkled with excitement.

She couldn’t believe she had become so strong!

Qin Feng smiled with satisfaction.

Although Chu Chu was now a Level-3 Genetic Warrior, her combat strength had likely reached around 125 points, stronger than most near-elementalists, and far surpassing ordinary Level-4 Genetic Warriors.

This was the special effect of the Perfect Grade Gene Serum.

If he let her take the Level-4 Gene Serum, her combat strength could reach around 200 points.

At that level, very few people below Elementalist rank would be able to harm her…
