Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 144 - 138: Big Brother, May I Ask Your Mother’s Surname?
"Good evening, Director Long."
Lu Lin noticed that Long Qianli was currently in the office of Hua Qing Water Yard.
"Yes, good evening. Lu Lin, do you have time now?"
Lu Lin nodded.
"Alright, I’ll get straight to the point."
"Today, a serious incident happened in Feibei City. Three Level 3 Star Core Warriors robbed a batch of Star Power Potions from Zhonghe Pharmaceutical Company. The Feibei City Investigation Bureau hopes we can assist them in pursuing and capturing these Star Core Warrior criminals."
"Now, I’m officially notifying you, the task is assigned."
"Please instruct me."
Lu Lin immediately stood at attention.
This was the customary etiquette in the Star Investigation Office when receiving a task.
"Proceed to Feibei City as quickly as possible to intercept these three criminals from escaping."
"I will send the real-time location and intelligence of the criminals to your personal terminal. Keep an eye on it."
"Also, go downstairs right now. The vehicle picking you up will arrive in 75 seconds."
"Understood, I’ll ensure the task is completed."
Lu Lin ended the call and quickly grabbed his broken knife and two bottles of Star Power Recovery Potion from the entrance.
"Mr. Zhou, Xiao Ru, I’ve got a task to attend to. The return time is uncertain. I’ll send the electronic key for the room to both of you shortly."
"I’m heading out first."
Zhou Ziqiang and Xiao Ru also saw the conversation between Lu Lin and Director Long. They dared not delay and let Lu Lin set off first.
Lu Lin, holding the broken knife, stuffed the Star Power Potion into his pocket and leaped straight out of the window of the stairway.
Doing so was much faster than taking the elevator.
Lu Lin stood straight and saw a black magnetic levitation car driving in through the main gate of the residential area.
"Authentication successful, Elite Investigator Lu Lin, please get in the car."
The car door opened, and Lu Lin jumped in. At this time, his personal terminal also received a folder sent by Chen Shanshan.
Criminal One: Bai Lang.
Star Power Level 3, fire system attribute, proficient in Star Skills Burning, Fire Wall, Fire Shield, Fire Snake.
Skilled at wielding weapons such as knives, practices Star Martial ’Thirty-six Roads Flame Knife’, aggressive combat style.
Appearance feature, red dot in the middle of eyebrows.
Criminal Two: Jin Dun.
Star Power Level 3, gold system attribute, proficient in Star Skills Tearing, Hardening, Iron Fist, Knife Leg.
Skilled in fist and foot combat, practices Star Martial ’Earthshattering Fist’, ’Fatal Leg Chains’, agile and hard to capture.
Appearance feature, red hair, star-shaped earring on left ear.
Criminal Three: Mi Yan.
Star Power Level 3, mutated sand system attribute, proficient in Star Skills Yellow Sand, Sandstorm, Sand Erosion.
Unknown preferred weapon, unknown Star Martial practices, team leader, insidious and cunning.
Appearance feature, bald, green dragon tattoo on arm.
The three hijacked a Zhonghe Pharmaceutical Company drug transport vehicle at 5:24 PM today, stealing pharmaceuticals worth 30 million yuan, and killing four security personnel and a driver.
During their escape, they killed one and severely injured six members of the Feibei City Investigation Bureau. The criminals are repeat offenders with powerful strength, ruthless and adept at hiding.
The mission’s primary goal is interception, achieving 35 minutes of delay will result in a successful task.
Attached to the mission introduction is a satellite positioning map, with three flashing points continuously blinking.
The vehicle Lu Lin rode in had already pre-set its target, so he didn’t have to worry about it.
While in the car, Lu Lin quickly memorized the features of the three culprits.
Especially their combat abilities.
Truth be told, Long Qianli really trusted Lu Lin this time.
Despite knowing Lu Lin’s power was only Level 2 Peak, he sent him to intercept three Level 3 criminals.
This was not just a test of his combat ability but also his capacity for quick thinking on his feet.
Fortunately, Long Qianli knew Lu Lin had an earth element attribute, with his first two Star Skills being Stone Skin and War Cry.
While it might be impossible to defeat and capture the three criminals, he could at least ensure his safety.
This task was a spur-of-the-moment decision by Long Qianli.
In usual cases, Long Qianli would only dispatch one intermediate investigator to resolve such tasks.
Earlier today, he heard Long Qiansu mention Lu Lin’s guidance of Star Skills to the Gao Brothers, which piqued Director Long’s interest.
This year, Chongnuo City hasn’t had many awakened investigators, so instead of laboriously deciphering combat power tests, it would be better to assess it through actual combat.
Among the three criminals, one was skilled with knives, one in fist and foot combat, and the last, named Mi Yan, was a sand-class martial artist with unknown preferred weaponry and Star Martial practices.
This posed quite a challenge for Lu Lin.
As for actual combat experience, Lu Lin barely had one fight against ’the artist.’
However, in that fight, Lu Lin was overwhelmed by ’the artist’ from start to finish. If it weren’t for using everything he had to confine ’the artist’ with a Star Power Domain in the end, Lu Lin might not have lasted until Zhao Lei and the others arrived.
This task, strictly speaking, was Lu Lin’s first actual combat experience.
The opponent had exactly the same strength level, as Three-Level Martial Artists.
Yes.
In Lu Lin’s view, although he was still at Level 2 Peak, his combat power was not at all inferior to a Level 3 Star Core Warrior.
Furthermore, cultivating the Golden Body Sutra and Inch Step afforded him more options in combat.
The Golden Body Sutra was a body refinement cultivation method. Generally, martial artists within the federation didn’t practice this kind of Star Martial.
Inch Step was something Guan Pingchao’s father acquired from an Exotic Battlefield, and in terms of rank, it wasn’t something typical Level 3 warriors often encountered, let alone react to when facing Lu Lin.
With these two primary Star Maritals, Lu Lin had no issues ensuring his safety.
Coupled with his earth and eye-based Star Skills, Lu Lin had considerable confidence in this battle.
...
The car sped fast.
Outside Feibei City.
Bai Lang, with a red dot in the middle of his eyebrows, said, "Mi Yan bro, we should have shaken off those Investigation Bureau folks by now, right?"
Zhou Ziqiang and Xiao Ru also saw Lu Lin’s conversation with Director Long. They dared not delay and let Lu Lin set off first.
The red-haired Jin Dun, driving in front, chuckled, "Bai Lang, is your bladder weak or something? Didn’t you go to the restroom three times just this afternoon?"
"Damn it, Bai Lang, I suddenly really need to pee."
Bai Lang said, turning to look at Mi Yan in the copilot seat examining the potions, "Brother Mi Yan, it should be safe now, right? Just let me get out and take a leak. I’ll be quick."
Jin Dun chuckled but said nothing.
Mi Yan nodded, "Sure, it’s the perfect time to escape. I don’t want any trouble right now."
White Wolf was thrilled and repeatedly agreed, "Mi Yan bro, then let’s find some Firefox Clan women to have some fun later."
"Damn," Mi Yan cursed, signaling Jin Dun to stop the car.
The car came to a stop, and Bai Lang almost immediately jumped out of the car.
The area nearby was barren, and he nonchalantly unzipped and relieved himself in the open air.
From a distance, two bright lights suddenly flashed, shining directly on Bai Lang as he was taking a leak.
"Damn it, who’s driving over here at this time?" Bai Lang grumbled.
He tried to finish, finding that the urge to pee had vanished. He zipped up and started walking toward Lu Lin’s car.
"Bai Lang, come back," Mi Yan shouted loudly from the car.
This was a critical time to escape, and he didn’t want any complications.
"Okay."
Bai Lang responded, starting to turn away when he saw Lu Lin jump out of the car.
"Big brother, can I ask you something? What’s your mother’s last name?"
