Chapter 509 - 0509: Incident (Seeking Subscriptions)
Chapter 509: Chapter 0509: Incident (Seeking Subscriptions)
To Su Lu, the so-called special advisor was just like an ancient guest of honor.
It belonged to the type of position that enjoyed lots of rights and carried few obligations.
He also knew that when Zi was negotiating, countless eavesdropping devices were broadcasting live, and the higher echelons of SkyNet had obviously given her instructions.
Even if he hadn’t heard, he could guess the general idea.
“Pleasant cooperation.”
Su Lu stood up, smiled, and shook hands with Zi.
At this moment, many people both inside and outside the room breathed a sigh of relief.
“Then… Advisor Bai Jing, there is a mission for you now.”
Zi’s expression became serious: “Your unique menu is very helpful for improving the strength of occupational people, we can provide you with materials, we hope you can provide as many dishes as possible.”
“Ten dishes a day, I’ll just charge cost price.”
Su Lu thought about it, and said indifferently.
Although he could cook hundreds of dishes, that would be foolish.
“This… is too little.”
A troubled look appeared on Zi’s face.
“Cooking dishes requires effort…” Su Lu spread his hands, expressing that he was also incapable.
After all, the real master of magic potion has to involve inspiration when combining potions, which is also a consumption.
“Okay…”
It was their first meeting, and Zi, not knowing much about his profession, did not ask for too much.
She handed over another piece of information: “Advisor Bai Jing, first of all, I have to apologize… After all, when faced with such an extraordinary person as you, one can’t help but investigate.”
“This is normal!”
Su Lu sighed.
It would be strange not to investigate his family tree after discovering the identity of Bai Jing.
With SkyNet’s ability to act and obtain support, it’s probably clear how many relationships his predecessor had.
Therefore, he was not angry at all.
They were investigating Bai Jing’s family, not Su Lu’s.
He didn’t care!
Because he didn’t care, he had ignored it completely during this time.
The phone calls were dealt with hastily.
It seemed that something had happened to Bai Jing’s family?
Su Lu was stunned for a moment, and casually took the information.
Although he didn’t care about them, and it was after Bai Jing’s death that he took over the body, he should still repay it.
However, with SkyNet’s character, the family members of such key members should be under very strict protection, right?
He opened the documents, and saw a character introduction:
Father of Bai Jing, Bai Guan.
Mother, Mu Chundie.
Elder sister, Bai Tong.
…”
“Do the parents of Advisor Bai Jing, currently working in other cities, need our help to adjust their jobs and move them to safer areas?”
Zi asked calmly.
If SkyNet secretly observed and protected without Su Lu’s consent, what difference would there be from holding his parents hostage?
In this regard, she was quite measured.
However, the treatment of SkyNet members’ families was quite good, they all provided centralized jobs, and dedicated members were responsible for their protection.
In this era, this was a service that many rich people may not be able to afford even with heavy amounts of money.
“Not necessary for now, I plan to go back sometime during this period, I’ll take care of it then…”
Su Lu turned over the first few pages and saw the last one about Bai Tong: “Suspected Transcendent? Joined an organization? What nonsense!”
He really didn’t know that Bai Jing’s sister had also become a Transcendent.
Since the form of attracting through nightmares is too hidden, as long as they are careful when collecting materials and lying low usually, SkyNet is not divine, most likely they wouldn’t discover this.
This time, it was Su Lu who screwed Bai Tong over.
Because of him, the local SkyNet increased resource investments to investigate, thus revealing some clues.
“Indeed nonsense, that organization is called ‘Torchbearer’, and the leader is very mysterious, often preaching speeches of world-ending, stating that the world is about to be destroyed, and only the Transcendent new men could be the hope of surviving the apocalypse. It has quite the market in some circles. Also, we found out that this organization has some illegal activities…”
Zi informed Su Lu of the specific situation.
Su Lu’s face darkened even more: “Then… I think I need to go there immediately and get her out.”
“We can provide assistance in this area. For example, the latest flight schedules, local hotel accommodations… of course, the most important is intelligence and combat support.”
“Thank you!”
Su Lu stood up, casually wrote a closed for business sign, and handed it to Little Dang: “Hang it up tomorrow.”
Then he turned to Zi and said: “I’ll get ready, and leave tomorrow.”
He is just a straightforward man.
Besides, he did feel a little guilty about this body, this time he could make up for it.
…
The next day, Star Fire City.
A regular passenger plane landed smoothly.
Su Lu wore a shirt and jeans, carrying a shoulder bag, looking like a young tourist man.
Next to him, were the slightly tired Zi and Wang Chaoqun.
The three came out of the airport and got into a black van.
In the car, Zi opened a folder and introduced to Su Lu: “The Torchbearer organization, the leader who is known as ‘Fire Transmitter’ is suspected to be a second-order spellcaster, good at fire-related magic! Below him, there are ten ‘Fire Seeds’, an unknown numbers of official members, and even more peripheries… Their operations are very secret, local SkyNet operations only managed to take down a few of their branches, and failed to catch the big fish…”
“Bai Tong, is my own sister, right?”
Su Lu suddenly asked: “I don’t want any surprises.”
“Of course, she is your sister from the same parents.” Zi looked surprised, and after exchanging a glance with Wang Chaoqun, she replied.
“In that case, there should be no problem.”
Su Lu closed his eyes, and his fingers moved unconsciously.
In the void, numerous spiritual bodies, formless yet tangible, appeared and spread out in all directions.
It wasn’t realistic for Su Lu to try to find someone nationwide through bloodline ties, but if the range was narrowed to a city, it wouldn’t be a problem.
Besides, he had so many spiritual bodies to assist him.
“Mr. Bai Jing, do we go to rest in a five-star hotel next?” Zi asked curiously.
“No! Next, follow my instructions… Turn left at the next intersection.”
Su Lu opened his eyes, although his tone was flat, his words were quite imperious.
Zi’s fists clenched and then relaxed quietly: “Alright, we’ll follow the instructions of this advisor.”
“Next, go straight, turn right at the next intersection… after two traffic lights, turn left…”
After some running around, the vehicle stopped in front of an office building according to Su Lu’s instruction, shockingly in the downtown area!
“Hiding here? That’s quite ingenious.”
Su Lu commented, then got out of the car.
“This is… one of Torchbearer’s bases?”
Zi’s eyes widened, she had no idea what Su Lu had done.
