She was still in a white robe, still pretending not to know him, and conducted a psychological examination on him.
The results once again showed his "innocence."
He was once again released without charge.
Ren Zhong, "awakened" from sleep, swaggered out of the Town Governnt Tower of Chromium Carbon Town, and the casually dressed Xiao Xingyue appeared in front of him again.
"Mr. Ren, we’ve been crossing paths a bit too often lately."
Xiao Xingyue didn’t hide anymore and spoke candidly.
Ren Zhong grinned, "Can’t help it, when you’re popular, trouble finds you. Every bit of nonsensical crap cos my way. By the way, what did you ask about?"
Xiao Xingyue shook her head, "Nothing much, just so trivial details, don’t worry about it."
Ren Zhong: "That’s good, I always worry about getting involved in sothing big."
"The matter is significant, but it has nothing to do with you."
Ren Zhong sighed, "Well, I haven’t dared to step into the market lately, luckily I dodged this one. Actually, I saw the ngdu Group’s announcent, and I thought, today you ca to , it should be about Sun Miao, right? I’m quite familiar with Sun and have a good relationship with him. I really don’t know what he’s thinking. Sigh. Can you tell more?"
"He was certified as a rebel by both the Association and the ngdu Group and refused to be arrested. Unexpectedly, he turned the entire project team into his followers, led them to betray the Association, and used a potion to increase an Armored Soldier’s strength from Second Level to Level Six in a very short ti. Then, with this Armored Soldier’s cover, he escaped from the ngdu Group’s R&D headquarters, hijacked an airship, and fled towards Starfire Town, where he was executed en route."
While saying this, Xiao Xingyue kept staring at Ren Zhong, observing his micro-expressions.
Ren Zhong was first stunned, then completely shocked, and finally showed a look of terror, his pupils dilating.
After a long while, he murmured, "Terrifying, truly terrifying."
"Want to know who that Armored Soldier was?"
Ren Zhong: "Could it be that Bai Feng, who mysteriously disappeared from my forr team?"
"Precisely him."
"What! This..." Ren Zhong waved his hands repeatedly, "This has nothing to do with ! I know nothing!"
Xiao Xingyue: "Well, otherwise you would have already been arrested."
"Phew, that’s good." Ren Zhong patted his chest, "You know, these people are sothing. Wouldn’t it be better to make more money and live well?"
Xiao Xingyue shrugged, "Who knows. Anyway, I hope we et again only when I’m acting in the capacity of a journalist."
Ren Zhong grinned, "But I think we might never et again."
"Why? Are you going to keep a low profile, genius warrior, commander, stock guru, top student?"
Ren Zhong laughed heartily, "Or maybe I’m so high-profile, I’ve been ushered into so secret departnt?"
...
In the underground warehouse of Chromium Carbon Resources.
Ju Qingng looked at the two large boxes in front of her, looking troubled.
Ren Zhong just asked her if she could fuse these tals into the Exoskeleton Armor’s protective layer within a day.
She thought it was unrealistic.
But Ren Zhong said if it couldn’t be completed by noon tomorrow, then it should be abandoned.
Ju Qingng clenched her teeth, "I can."
...
The 96th day, at 9:30 in the evening, wearing a dark blue Exoskeleton Armor, Ren Zhong stood alone in the open field outside Chromium Carbon Town.
His intuition told him that the army of the Association should be arriving soon.
He sighed slightly.
Actually, he didn’t want to die like this.
He could consider tearing off the mask, launching the revolution early, and trying to mobilize everyone he could.
But it was aningless.
Ren Zhong wanted to awaken the wastelanders, let them know the world’s truth, tell them what humans really looked like, make them believe that people’s status shouldn’t be determined by birth, and let them know what kind of society is fair, liberating them from the vicious worldview constructed by the Source Star system.
Only then could the wastelanders find reasons strong enough to sustain their fight to the end.
Unfortunately, all of this requires extensive preaching and subtle influence, which takes ti.
Now, the ti was too short, it was too late.
His real "base," Starfire Town, had already been buried with its people and everything.
Besides Zheng Tian, Yujin, and a few people in the company, Ren Zhong had beco a lone man, unable to support everything alone.
As for the rest of the small town wastelanders, there was no hope.
...
The distant sky suddenly grew dark.
They were coming.
Ren Zhong took a deep breath.
At this mont, his armor’s smart brain suddenly went offline.
But the next second, he activated the backup system.
