Chapter 407: Investigations



Fortunately, such a test of her loyalty did not happen.

The reinforcements came promptly. With a few huge explosions, machine guns filled the place and the tables were turned.

Even the few weird looking huge dogs turned into a bloodied mess under the rapid fire of the machine guns.

In a few moments, a party or rescuers entered the forest and successfully located Ye Yingzi.

After ensuring that the surroundings were safe, Ye Yingzi then brought Fang Yuan out to see the massacre.

Gun wounds were not simply thumb-sized holes in the body. Instead, it was a bloodied mess and the internal organs were ripped apart. The entire place seemed like and execution square and even the experienced soldiers became nauseous just by looking at the scene.

"Let’s go!"

It seemed as though tears were welling up in Ye Yingzi’s eyes. Bringing Fang Yuan to a new care, they travelled for a long period before finally reaching a particular base.

"I am the in-charge of the Research Centre of Supernormal Humans - Xi Menjian. Welcome, comrade Fang Yuan!"

A seemingly unstable middle-aged man personally walked out to welcome Fang Yuan and gave him a friendly pat on his shoulder. "I’ve heard that you encountered a few troubles on your way here. I hope you’re ok!"

"It’s alright, it’s just a little unexpected that... is it worth it to do all these? After all, I am only a student."

Fang Yuan forced a smile.

"Of course it’s worth it!"

Xi Menjian’s expression turned to a solemn one. "Do you know that for this operation, Japan has sacrificed most of their spies and their arrangements in the capital, putting 10 over years of effort to waste... If we came a little later, we would be able to host the United Nations Conference at your hostel!"

Xi Menjian joked and waved his hands. "Alright! We don’t have enough time to give you a welcome party. Send the order, we shall commence the meeting!"

...

In the underground base.

Seated in the huge conference room, everyone looked serious as they watched a clip.

The two groups of people here were very distinct. One group was made up of investigators who were mostly scientists. The other group was made up of stern-looking military personnel who sat upright.

"This is the situation report which we have received 6:00 am in the morning today. Furthermore, more problems are arising as we speak... All of these happenings only prove that Comrade Fang Yuan’s theory of the spike in energy due to the arrival of the Spiritual King Comet, the theory of the Big Circulation and the evolving human body are all true!"

Xi Menjian quickly took the attendance of those who had arrived and Fang Yuan immediately felt as though everyone in the room was staring at him, trying to understand his thoughts.

"Because of this, the country has pledged more resources to our research centre to assist in investigations. I have already passed a military order in the presence of the chief. We will come up with a solution to the crisis as soon as possible, placing our priority on protecting the lives of the people and their properties!"

After speaking in a strict tone, Xi Menjian looked towards Fang Yuan. "Comrade Fang Yuan, do you have anything to add?"

"Hmm, there is indeed something for me to add!"

Fang Yuan nodded his head and felt inadequate for not having glasses to push up. "The spike in energy will not only benefit those evolvers. We need to pay attention to those who have inherited some sort of skill from their ancestors... For instance, martial arts, daoist techniques et cetera. We need to understand that even a normal human with potential will be able to become supernormal unders such circumstances. They might be even harder to deal with compared to those evolvers."

The revival of any ancient supernormal influence would bring about a great disruption to any present society.

Xi Menjian maintained his solemn face. "This is indeed true. We have already thought about this point and regarding it... I shall read out a new nomination here!"

"Pa!"

Everyone in the conference room stood up.

"... To deal with the current situation, the Religious Bureau have appointed Comrade Xi Menjian as the Chief of Bureau, Comrade Zhou Ming as the Assistant Chief of Bureau. Their job scopes would be to manage supernatural events, take charge of a quick response team and head the Office of Truth Investigation... Furthermore, Comrade Fang Yuan shall be invited as the special consultant!"

"Pa! Pa!"

There was a rousing applause.

Fang Yuan felt a little conflicted. ’Isn’t it just a bureau to investigate supernatural happenings? They have gone to such lengths to even think about classifying it under religion...’

"Alright, please carry out your tasks according to your allocations. Dismissed!"

Xi Menjian was a decisive person and quickly ended the meeting. "Comrade Fang Yuan, please stay!"

"Chief of Bureau!"

Fang Yuan took a bow. "What instructions do you have for me?"

"Mmm, Comrade Little Fang, you are about to join a whole new working environment. What requests do you have? Please let me know!"

Against a real talent, Xi Menjian was still extremely respectful. "The Assistant Chief of Bureau, Zhou Ming is He Tianming’s boss! He was the one that sent you to the gifted class, Director Zhou!"

"Oh, so it’s him!"

Fang Yuan displayed an expression of shock.

"Mmm... The future of the world is changing and the country needs more talents... By telling you all these, I am hoping that you will not have any more confusion. Do you have any more requests?"

Xi Menjian asked with a straight face.

"Although I have to keep mum about my job, I’m sure I still have my personal freedom, right?"

Fang Yuan thought about it for a while before asking.

"The uniqueness of this job as an investigator will have a certain degree of secrecy. However, we will not restrict your personal freedom. The only thing you will have to do is to report whenever you are leaving or staying in the base, and everything will have to be subject to my approval. This is to ensure that the security department can ensure your safety!"

Xi Menjian replied.

"Alright, I have no further questions for now. I request to start my job immediately!"

Fang Yuan shouted.

"Alright!"

Xi Menjian was evidently satisfied. "Please let me know if you have any other needs. As long as they are required for experimentation, you don’t have to hold back!"

He sounded serious, and Fang Yuan knew that he was.

After saying their goodbyes, Fang Yuan silently left the conference room.

"Good day, Consultant Fang!"

Ye Yingzi stood by the door as though she had waited for quite a while. "I am your orderly from now on! Let me bring you to your bedroom!"

"Orderly?"

Fang Yuan seemed confused.

"Yes! Although you still need to go through an officiating ceremony, in the database, you are already a major!"

Ye Yingzi gave Fang Yuan a military salute.

"Alright..."

Fang Yuan started to examine the weird-looking surroundings. "This place is not too bad!"

Although it was an underground laboratory, the facilities here were top-notch and the scientists were treated well.

Of course, the majority of the scientists were in their 70s or 80s. Only a young face could stand out among them. "Are you Fang Yuan? I am Li Zilong, a professor in Biology. I have already read through your thesis about evolvers umpteen times and it is still unbelievable..."

The 30-year-old young man shook Fang Yuan’s hand passionately. "With your addition, our team will be more efficient than ever!"

"It is already..."

Fang Yuan had to act humble.

Li Zilong had a prestigious background and his energetic eyes made Fang Yuan feel as though he was dangerous.

Using his Fiery Golden Eyes, Fang Yuan could see that this person’s life energy was extremely concentrated, especially at the portion of the brain. He was an evolver who had an evolved brain, a talent among the talents.

"I’ll have to add something. I am an evolver with an evolved brain, and my evolution is already 20% completed! I have only just awakened the force of my mind yesterday!"

Li Zilong raised his glasses and his handshake was full of energy. "Of course, my abilities are only basic and they still have to be trained!"

"Hmm?!"

Fang Yuan was surprised at Li Zilong’s honesty and started to think to himself.

Fang Yuan was all along acting as a gifted person with a super brain, right?

Since Li Zilong had no reservations about hiding anything, he must have received special treatment from the higher-ups.

To any organisation especially one involved in scientific research, the more of such talents they could have, the better.

"I have always been smarter than the average person. However, how do you measure the rate of development of the brain?"

Fang Yuan piqued.

"It was impossible last time, but things are different now!"

Li Zilong’s eyes were burning with passion. "Are you interested in going for the test?"

"It would be disrespectful to reject your offer!"

Fang Yuan smiled and followed Li Zilong into a laboratory.

"I would like to inquire about something. Where do we get the subjects to research on?"

Unknowingly, Fang Yuan asked.

"This... Most of them are volunteers from the army. I occasionally volunteer myself as well..."

Li Zilong answered without hesitation. "Of course... there are a few evil convicts as well... However, we do not perform destructive experiments and therefore, no one has to worry about being cut up..."

’Who would’ve thought that.... Li Zilong would be so distasteful in his jokes...’

Fang Yuan sat on a cushioned chair and remained speechless. Wires were being attached to his head.

"This is the latest instrument which I have developed, the Brainwave Scanner. It is able to retrieve information from the human brain and from there predict the development level of the brain... However, it’s a pity that there is only one such instrument in existence!"

Li Xilong started to touch the screen beside the instrument. His fingers started to work quickly and in no time, a scanned image appeared.

The polygraph printer beside the screen started to whir into life, sketching lines on a piece of paper.

10 minutes later, Li Zilong raised his glasses and read the report.

"Indeed what I’ve guessed! Your brain is 15% developed! You are even smarter than the top scientists in the world!"

"Only 15%?"

Fang Yuan calmly sat upright, wore his clothes and did not seem disappointed.

"Mmm, an average person would have a development level of around 1% to 5%, and the smartest scientists would at most achieve a development level of 10%..."

There were flames of passion in Li Zilong’s eyes. "You are similar to me! Did you awaken any special ability last night?"

"Does my acupuncture technique count?"

Fang Yuan tilted his head and threw out the excuse which he had long prepared. "I can feel that the ’energy’ in my body is increasing. If I were to perform acupuncture now, I’m sure I will be able to achieve what I cannot previously!"

"We have long noticed your magical acupuncture technique, Major Fang Yuan! Needless to say, you have already exceeded the standards of the world in terms of healing..."

Li Zilong continued. "Fang Yuan, are you heading towards the direction of performing research on evolvers?"

"Actually, I always had a thought in my mind..."

With a serious look, Fang Yuan continued. "The destructive power of evolvers are too much. Even if we are able to come up with a temporary solution to keep them under control, we will still not be able to control them in the future. Therefore, I have thought of a unique idea which might be able to help such a situation..."
