"Ling Chen, what about those two people?"
Upon hearing Su Lin’s inquiry, Ling Chen snapped back to reality and casually said, "Those two were swindlers and have already been taken away by the police."
"Swindlers?"
Ling Chen nodded, "Enough about them. You’ve been busy all night, better get so rest."
As he spoke, his phone rang again from his pocket.
Looking at the incoming caller ID, Ling Chen’s eyes brightened as he quickly answered, "Mr. He, have you returned? Good, I understand, I’ll be there shortly."
After hanging up the phone, Ling Chen turned to Nanrong Hao and said, "Haozi, take care of your sister, I need to step out for an urgent matter."
With those words, Ling Chen hurriedly ran out of the office and took the elevator straight to the underground parking garage.
Half an hour later, Ling Chen drove quickly to Qingyun Martial Arts Hall.
Upon entering, he saw several fully ard n in suits walking around the spacious courtyard, securing the entirety of the Martial Arts Hall tightly.
As Ling Chen appeared, the suited n scrutinized him and after ensuring there was no threat, they let him pass.
Entering the main hall, Ling Chen looked at He Ziyun, sitting there, and asked, "Mr. He, what’s the deal with those n outside?"
"They are here to protect Nanrong Yuan. Although I was allowed to bring Nanrong Yuan to East Sea City, he’s a high-risk criminal and they don’t fully trust the security here, thus they sent protection. Let’s not worry about them for now, co with , I’ll take you to et Nanrong Yuan."
Following Mr. He, soon Ling Chen found himself outside a room. Observing the security stationed at the door, he thought to himself how seriously they were taking Nanrong Yuan’s security, which likely ant Nanrong Yuan would struggle to regain his freedom.
Entering the room, Ling Chen glanced around and his gaze instantly landed on Nanrong Yuan.
At the mont, Nanrong Yuan lay on a bed covered with a thick blanket, looking sowhat pale with an IV needle in his hand.
Around his head, a bandage was wrapped, indicating his injuries weren’t fully healed.
"Mr.... Mr. Nanrong," Ling Chen almost called him Mr. Yun, but quickly corrected himself after rembering Nanrong Yuan’s true identity.
"Take a seat," said Nanrong Yuan, pointing to a chair nearby. Though he looked weak, he appeared to be in good spirits.
"How’s Wanqing?"
"She’s fine."
Nanrong Yuan smiled in relief, "That’s good to hear. I was told by Mr. He that it was you who requested to transfer from Beijing to East Sea City?"
"Yes, there’s sothing I need to consult you about."
"Go ahead."
"When you defected from the God Organization, it was because they discovered you had developed a new technology and wanted to seize it for themselves."
"That’s right."
"Where did you hide that technology’s data? Is it on Wanqing?" Ling Chen asked, looking at Nanrong Yuan.
Nanrong Yuan nodded, "I’ve warned you before, Wanqing is the key, and I think you might have guessed it." He paused, then continued, "Do you rember, a few months ago, I tricked Wanqing onto that island and injected her with a serum that cured her legs?"
"I rember."
"Actually, by that ti, I had already mastered that new technology. For safety, while Wanqing was unconscious, I had soone implant that technology into her body. This way, as long as my identity remained hidden, no one would discover the new technology."
"Unfortunately, you miscalculated," Ling Chen remarked.
Hearing this, Nanrong Yuan’s expression changed, and he straightened up from his reclined position.
"What do you an?"
"Not long ago, the God Organization captured Wanqing and conducted so sort of experintation on her. By the ti I rescued her, her legs had reverted to their original state. Not only that, but the God Organization also conducted a new experint on two of my friends, causing them to lose their minds and turn into terrifying killing machines. So, I believe the God Organization must have obtained the data of that new technology. You are most familiar with it since it was developed by your team."
Nanrong Yuan pondered for a while and then said somberly, "If that’s the case, you might be in great danger. Although the technology is powerful, it still has its flaws. Of course, these flaws are only in terms of what my technology could perfect. The God Organization is different; they’ve been researching this area for decades and are far more experienced, with far superior facilities and team. Given enough ti, they could perfect that new technology."
"After all this discussion, you haven’t told us what this new technology is used for."
"Genetic mutation."
Genetic mutation?
Ling Chen and Mr. He exchanged glances, both filled with shock.
"Human weakness mainly arises from genetic issues. If genes are enhanced, it unlocks limitless possibilities. However, gene fusion has always been an insurmountable challenge that few have succeeded in overcoming. Until last year, my research team discovered a molecule that could neutralize human genes with other genes, achieving a breakthrough in gene fusion."
Continuing, Nanrong Yuan picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and went on, "To put it simply, human genes and animal genes are difficult to rge, but after searching millions of organisms, we finally found a special gene variant in a deep-sea worm. This gene could act as a neutralizer, perfectly combining the two types of genes. As genes are fortified, human physical capabilities can be significantly enhanced. Now do you understand the key point of this new technology?"
Ling Chen nodded, his expression turning grave.
"Mr. Nanrong, if soone undergoes this genetic mutation experint, can they ever revert to their original state?"
"This... I cannot be certain. When this new technology was first developed, I conducted a few experints. Although the subjects successfully underwent genetic mutation, all of them died during our attempts to reverse the procedure, so I cannot guarantee recovery."
"From what you’re saying, does that an my two friends are beyond help?"
"I can’t give a definitive answer. However, I personally believe that if anyone could reverse the experint, it might only be possible by the God Organization."
The God Organization again!
Ling Chen frowned, considering his and the God Organization’s relationship, they were unlikely to help him.
What a troubleso matter.
In contemplation, he suddenly heard Nanrong Yuan ask, "Ling Chen, about Wanqing now..."
"She already knows about your identity."
Upon hearing this, Nanrong Yuan’s face changed instantly, and he asked nervously, "Then... did she say anything?"
