Use first and repay later: Advance the future cultivation fruits-Chapter 121 - 99、Mechanical Guard

In the sky, the streamlined, arc-shaped bottom of the flying vehicle suddenly detached from the surface of the craft, descending slowly towards the ground below like a disc.

Cradled on the descending disc were three silhouettes.

In front stood a handsome, black-haired, mixed-race young man dressed in minimalist clothing dominated by black, white, and gray; a style that had become increasingly common in the advertisements projected throughout the urban circle, with hardly any additional decorations on him.

Behind him were two bodyguards clad in black streamlined combat attire that completely covered their faces, not even their eyes could be seen, making them appear at first glance like two tall, black humanoid creatures.

The patrollers below watched this scene in astonishment.

Everyone could see that this mixed-race young man must be an elite figure from the urban circle.

"Not a bad turnout."

The handsome young man glanced casually at the surrounding patrollers and then stepped off the disc with his bodyguards.

The disc automatically rose and re-integrated into the flying vehicle.

Then, the flying vehicle shaped like a disc suddenly moved and in an instant, transformed into a terrifying black streak of light, departing at a speed far exceeding the speed of sound by an unknown multiple.

Many patrollers watched this scene in shock.

"Oh?"

The handsome young man sized up Tang Wanqiu, the Inspector, and Lin Qing behind her, his pupils shimmering with a hint of light. He then smiled and said, "Inspection Headquarters, Inspector of Branch No. 12, Tang Wanqiu?"

Tang Wanqiu stepped forward, cautiously asking, "Yes, may I ask who you are?"

She knew that these high-ranking individuals from the urban circle had technologies far beyond Earth at their disposal, or had minor nanomachinery implants that allowed them to forgo reliance on communication devices.

Perhaps just by glancing at her, their background’s information database could provide them with a wealth of details about her.

"I come from the Vitas Family." The mixed-race young man said with a smile, "Given Inspector Tang’s clearance level, you might have heard of us?"

Tang Wanqiu took a deep breath and replied, "One of the twenty-four families invested in by the Intelligent Star Group, a name as loud as thunder."

As far as she knew, the twenty-four families, though not as colossal as the Chaoyang Martial Arts Hall or the Dawn Group, which were invested in by extraterrestrial civilizations, were still among the top family-led powers in the urban circle.

However, the Inspection Headquarters also had a significant backing in the urban circle, and no family’s clout could supersede that of her superiors.

Thus, all she needed was to maintain a courteous attitude.

"Before coming here, I had already submitted an application to the Star Patrol Council, to participate in this operation as a ’foreign affairs consultant’ for the Inspection Headquarters."

The mixed-race young man smiled faintly and said, "However, I know some information has not yet been reported, so I wanted to ask: Is the biological weapon still in the Underground Research Institute? Is there really a possibility that the Chuanxing Tower exists?"

Tang Wanqiu fell silent for a moment, then replied, "According to the patrol report from twenty minutes ago when we evacuated the Underground Research Institute, the biological weapon is still there."

She paused, then added, "As for the Chuanxing Tower, it’s only speculated because Dr. Chu Hui from the Original Research Institute once possessed such an object, which was never found even after his detention."

"The rumor about Dr. Chu Hui having the Chuanxing Tower is dubious enough," the mixed-race young man slightly shook his head, "and to hide the Chuanxing Tower in a decrepit research institute?"

"It’s just that the higher-ups at headquarters are holding onto a sliver of hope," said Tang Wanqiu.

The mixed-race youth gave a wry smile and shook his head, "Even if the Inspection Headquarters really obtained the Chuanxing Tower, could they find a genius worthy of its recognition? Wouldn’t it just be turned over to the Star Patrol Council?"

He glanced in the direction of the entrance to the Underground Research Institute and said, "I’ll head in first."

"Mr. Consultant."

Inspector Tang frowned slightly and said, "Communications are blocked inside the research institute, and criminals from the Original Research Institute are present, which is somewhat dangerous. Perhaps it’s better to wait outside?"

The mixed-race youth laughed and said, "If someone gets their hands on the biological weapon, taking it back could become troublesome."

He looked back at Tang Wanqiu, who, with her level of clearance, should know that the Underground Research Institute posed no threat to him—he realized what she was thinking and shook his head, "Inspector Tang need not worry, I’m not interested in the rest of the junk here."

The mixed-race young man gave Tang Wanqiu a meaningful look, with a smirk that was not quite a smile, and without further words, led his two bodyguards towards the Underground Research Institute.

Under the gaze of many patrollers, the handsome young man, accompanied by his two bodyguards, entered the eighty-meter-deep hole.

"Inspector Tang," Lin Qing spoke up.

"Go down as well," Tang Wanqiu directed him, "This is a good opportunity for you too, perhaps you’ll really gain some benefit."

She cautioned further, "However, do not conflict with this person; he comes from a significant family in the urban circle and is only interested in the biological weapon, so don’t compete with him for it."

"I understand," Lin Qing nodded slightly.

Privately, he pondered—although the biological weapon was valuable, it shouldn’t be that invaluable to the urban circle; otherwise, it wouldn’t be just a scion of a family coming in person to contest for it.

He guessed... the mixed-race young man from the Vitas Family perhaps wasn’t such a significant figure after all.

Of course.

Being part of a major power family from the urban circle, even the most ordinary member was still a big shot not to be provoked in his eyes.

Even an Inspector had to be careful with their words, which said a lot about their importance.

Lin Qing gave one last check of the Patrol Chief uniform he wore and the necessary equipment he carried before approaching the barricaded hole, glanced down, and leaped in.
