Chapter 305: Chapter 305 Arrangement (Request Subscription)
All night long, Pei Yan first accompanied his sister in playing games, then had dinner together. When it was time to sleep, Pei Yan set up a mat on the floor beside his sister’s bed, the two chatted idly, with Pei Yan sharing interesting anecdotes from his training in the Investigation Hall. They did not mention anything about the Origin or their future plans. The next morning after breakfast, while watching Mu command his subordinates to clear away the dishes and silently smiling at him from the doorway, Pei Yan wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "Sis, I’m going to talk to him." "Alright!" Leaving the room, Pei Yan openly said to Mu: "Let’s find a place to talk." "Just as I hoped, Mr. Pei, please follow me." Under Mu’s guidance, the two entered a small meeting room where three people were already waiting. To Pei Yan’s slight surprise, two of the people inside were foreigners with blonde hair and blue eyes. Only after Mu introduced each of them did Pei Yan realize all three were foreigners; his eyes swept over the Russian girl Catherine and the Italian Camilo, sensing the same Origin Energy within them as within himself, before finally setting his gaze upon the Oriental man inside and coldly huffed: "So you are Shitang Longsi who severed my sister’s arm?" "Oh, I’m surprised Mr. Pei has heard of me. Indeed, that’s me!" Shitang Longsi said while lightly pulling aside his clothes to reveal the shocking fresh scar on his chest, smiling softly: "Your sister is quite extraordinary, leaving me with this unforgettable memento." Pei Yan raised his head high, looking down contemptuously at the man slightly shorter than himself: "My sister really is soft-hearted. Were it me, you wouldn’t be standing here alive." "Oh, is that so? But from my perspective, you seem to only be at the third stage of awakening, isn’t that overly confident? If possible, I wouldn’t mind trying my hand against you, to see if you are truly as strong as the rumors say, Origin Superpower User." Shitang Longsi’s eyes narrowed slightly, his hand casually resting on the hilt at his waist, stepped forward to challenge. "Alright, alright! We’re all on the same side now, if you really want to spar, let’s wait until after this task, I’ll personally arrange a combat space for you." Mu saw the atmosphere was wrong and hurriedly stepped between the two to mediate. Pei Yan snorted softly, then sat impatiently on the sofa, tapping the table with his hand: "Going to so much trouble, causing me to betray everybody I held dear and get to this place, just say what’s next." Mu smiled and gestured for the others to sit down, while he walked over to sit beside Pei Yan, grinning: "Ah, we’ve used some methods, but regardless of whether you want it or not, now we’re all in the same boat, so I advise Mr. Pei to avoid saying things that hurt feelings in the future." Pei Yan turned his head to look at Mu’s frozen smile without replying and reluctantly nodded as a response. Mu, seeing this, smiled with satisfaction; although a bit troublesome, the results were good. Compared to those clueless beginners outside, the Investigation Hall raised him into someone who knows how to adapt to circumstances. Feeling smug and showing small tantrums is acceptable, but being too independent and uncontrollable is not favored by either the Investigation Hall or Shen Yu as they dislike subordinates like that; having lost the Investigation Hall’s large protective umbrella and becoming a fugitive, relying on Shen Yu’s shelter is his best option now. Thinking of this, Mu clapped his hands and continued saying: "Actually, with Mr. Pei joining, our plan was already pretty secure, but then your sister’s abilities suddenly manifested, which indeed exceeded our expectations. On this point, Mr. Pei must feel as shocked as we did." Watching Pei Yan lower his head silently fiddling with his wrist’s confinement ring, Mu continued to speak: "However, the people from the Investigation Hall seem to have known this secret earlier than we did; does Mr. Pei know anything about the insider information here?" "What do I know? Before this incident happened, I knew nothing, just like you. It was only afterward that I learned from Gu Shenghui’s conversation with me; after I joined the Investigation Hall, they secretly investigated my family. During that time, they discovered the anomaly in my sister’s abilities and signed a monitoring agreement with the Hall, agreeing to 24-hour surveillance in exchange for freedom outside. Do you have any questions about this?" "Nothing, just slightly puzzled. Now that the doubts are cleared, let’s talk about the real business. Just as Ms. Pei Jin mentioned in the video message she sent you, we need the help of those with the Origin Fragment’s abilities to transfer the Origin’s body out of the country." Mu explained thoughtfully while gently tapping his forehead. Hearing this, Pei Yan glanced at the other two foreigners sitting in the room and then asked: "I already know about the matter, how will the specific process be implemented?" "The process of transferring the Origin body is extremely difficult. If not for this, we wouldn’t have kept it within the country for so many years after capturing it. It’s only now that we’ve achieved a preliminary control over its powerful energy." Saying this, Mu picked up a file from the table and took out a series of photos and materials of the Origin’s body. Pei Yan glanced through the photos and documents and asked knowingly: "Since she’s already trapped within a human body, why not just teleport her out using the Teleportation Array, why bother with all this?" Upon hearing this, Mu smiled weakly and shook his head: "If it were truly that simple, we would have done it long ago. Her energy is too turbulent and unstable, with strong resistance, there’s currently no Teleportation Array that can withstand her Origin shock; the teleportation process is bound to fail, and she’ll use that opportunity to escape." While talking, Mu looked at those sitting in the room and said: "That’s why we need everyone’s involvement. We’ve already prepared a Sealing Array during the transportation period, but an array powered solely by internal sources is easily absorbed and converted by the Origin body for escape. We can only use two sources of energy, the internal source and the Origin source, merged and operating individually, forming intersecting, continuously converting barriers. Thus, after we weaken the body’s consciousness, she’d find it harder to break through this barrier." After finishing, Mu clapped his hands, and the door swung open with a female secretary walking in, carrying a tray. Mu stood up, took the tablet from the tray first, and handed it to Pei Yan, smiling: "There’s a detailed explanation of the specific operation process here, you can take it back to study carefully." Pei Yan unceremoniously opened the tablet, clicked on the video option, and laughed with a light mockery: "Well done, you even made CG animation for this." The video played what they needed to do during the transfer process – from each person’s station shifts to the amount of Origin energy needed to be inputted at each moment for the array – all clearly explained. After closing the video, he opened the document beside it which generously included a text version summary.
