Chapter 546: Chapter 388: Gene Warrior, Angel Commander!
Miland, East Coast, Florida State, Miami.
A black car sped down the road at night, heading for the countryside after leaving the city, and soon entered a farm.
“This farm spans more than 4,000 acres, and there are only three farmhouses within a radius of ten kilometers.”
Zhuge Zheng drove the car into the garage and said, “This is the safe house of our overseas intelligence group. The overseas intelligence group was established here more than 20 years ago.”
He gestured for Xu Yang and Niu Mang to get out of the car and headed to a corner of the garage, where he tapped on the wall twice.
The next moment.
The wall slowly separated, and a hidden door appeared in front of them.
Entering the hidden door, descending the stairs underground, a secret underground base came into view.
The underground base was not big, with a hall of about 100 square meters. Zhuge Zheng pointed to the corridor at the end of the hall, saying, “There are several rooms over there, including a conference room, a training room, a weapons and equipment room, and our overseas intelligence group’s computer room.”
“If there is a major operation, we usually meet here,” he added.
Zhuge Zheng smiled and said, “Master Xu, I’ve already informed everyone of your arrival overseas. The brothers have agreed to meet here in three days to welcome you.”
“No need for a welcome party,” Xu Yang replied. “Don’t expose everyone’s identity because of my arrival.”
“Master Xu, rest assured,” Zhuge Zheng smiled and said. “We all have legal identities overseas, and some of us even deal with the local government regularly, like me… My ancestors were from Shandong Province, but as early as the 1920s, my great-grandfather crossed the ocean to Miland…”
In other words.
The people in their overseas intelligence group were almost all “overseas Chinese” who had settled overseas for more than a century.
At that time, those who could cross the ocean to come overseas were almost all dignitaries.
After all, in that era, ordinary people couldn’t even afford to live, let alone come overseas – a boat ticket could take decades to save up for!
These dignitaries settled overseas to escape the turmoil of war, and after a century of development, they had already spread their roots widely, like Zhuge Zheng… His family had developed very well overseas, with a conservative estimate of several billion dollars in assets.
Xu Yang asked curiously, “Mr. Zhuge… Forgive me for asking, but with such a huge family business overseas, and your relatives and friends living here, why did you choose to work for the country?”
No!
Perhaps for Zhuge Zheng.
This place was his country!
His family had settled here for a hundred years, he had been born and raised here, educated here, and made friends here. It’s worth noting that even in Da Xia, many people complained about how good life was overseas and would sell their own fathers to live abroad if they could.
Yet Zhuge Zheng, instead of inheriting such a large family business, chose to join the Spirits Management Bureau and led the overseas intelligence group to collect intelligence for the country… His patriotism is truly admirable!
No wonder even his codename is “Ai Guo,” meaning “Patriotic”!
Zhuge Zheng smiled bitterly, “I don’t mind you laughing at me, Master Xu… Our Zhuge Clan was once a great clan in Da Xia. My great-grandfather’s grandfather and father were all great merchants, but by the 1920s, domestic chaos and warlords surrounded us. Our Zhuge Clan had to abandon our family business and cross the ocean to live overseas.”
My great-grandfather and my grandfather struggled all their lives, always hoping to return to that land.”
“Even now, I still remember my grandfather, holding my father’s hand before he died, telling my father and my uncles… that a fallen leaf should return to its roots, and the Zhuge Clan always has Da Xia blood in their veins.”
“I practiced martial arts from a young age.”
“More than 20 years ago, I accidentally met my master, who was the first leader of the Spirits Management Bureau’s overseas intelligence group. At that time, there was no such organization yet, and we were just a group of people who founded it with him.”
“Later, after my master retired and returned to China, I took over the overseas intelligence organization.”
At this point in his story, Zhuge Zheng suddenly puffed out his chest and proudly stated, “Minister Wang promised me that once I step down as the head of the overseas intelligence group, he would allow me and my entire Zhuge family to return to Da Xia!”
Of course.
Over the years, the Zhuge family’s business overseas has gradually faded.
A portion of the family members had already returned to China.
As for the staff members of the overseas intelligence group, most of their situations were similar to that of Zhuge Zheng.
After listening, Xu Yang sighed in admiration…
What a group of lovely people!
This farm was the property of Zhuge Zheng’s family.
It was managed by one of Zhuge Zheng’s cousins.
According to Zhuge Zheng, this cousin was an affiliate member of the overseas intelligence group. Since he didn’t practice martial arts, he was generally responsible for providing “logistical” support to the group. His name was Zhuge Zhong.
Upon learning of Xu Yang’s arrival, Zhuge Zhong was delighted, and even though it was late at night, he personally prepared a delicious meal for Xu Yang and Niu Mang in the kitchen.
Back at the farmhouse upstairs.
At the dining table, Zhuge Zheng suddenly received a phone call and his complexion changed after speaking a few words.
“Mr. Zhuge, what’s wrong?” Xu Yang asked, cutting a piece of steak and putting it in his mouth.
Zhuge Zheng replied, “I received news… not long ago, one of our Da Xia sword masters killed a black man in a Miami hotel, then fled the scene… this incident has drawn the attention of the Miland Divine Shield Agency. They have dispatched a team of A-class gene soldiers, several S-class gene soldiers, and a Sacred Realm expert to track down the sword master’s whereabouts.”
As he spoke, Zhuge Zheng kept his eyes fixed on Xu Yang.
He was a fan of Xu Yang.
Naturally, he knew that besides being a Celestial Master of the Daoist sect, Xu Yang was also an accomplished swordsman.
Today, Xu Yang happened to be in Miami.
Everything matched up.
Xu Yang didn’t deny it; he nodded and said, “I did kill that black guy. When I went to get a room, he actually discriminated against us from Da Xia. I felt annoyed, so I stabbed him to death with a sword. Isn’t it said that the Miland side doesn’t care much about black people? How come the death of a black guy caused such a big commotion?”
Zhuge Zheng said, “The reason they’re investigating you, Master Xu, is not to give any explanation to the deceased, but to take advantage of the situation to escalate it… The situation in overseas countries is chaotic nowadays, with frequent riots happening all over the place. Many politicians and capitalists believe that the best way to calm the unrest now is to start a new war…”
“Oh?”
Xu Yang’s eyes flickered, and he asked in surprise, “Do these people… really dare to go to war with our Da Xia?”
Zhuge Zheng bitterly smiled and said, “How can we as ordinary people understand what’s going on inside the heads of those politicians and capitalists? Not to mention that the Western Sorcerer Association is backing them up… According to the information gathered by our overseas intelligence team, this matter may even involve certain resurrected divine spirits.”
Xu Yang had long suspected the resurrection of the Western “divine spirits.”
However, he wasn’t too interested in it.
As is widely known…
The gods of the West are relatively weak.
For example, their Sacred Realm is roughly equivalent to the Daoist Refining Deity and Martial Arts Celestial Phenomenon Realm.
Above the Sacred Realm lies “god.”
Which is similar to the Daoist True Monarch and Land Immortal.
On the contrary, Xu Yang was more curious about the “genetic warriors.”
As the leader of the overseas intelligence group, Zhuge Zheng had some knowledge of the genetic warriors of the Divine Shield Agency, and said, “Genetic warriors from the Miland Divine Shield Agency are the result of a super research project by the Miland military. They combined technology and mythology to extract special genes from monsters and mythical creatures and fuse them with human genes to create a batch of super soldiers.”
“For example, the prototypes of Captain America, the Hulk, and Spider-Man in movies and TV shows are actually genetic warriors.”
Genetic warriors have formidable physiques.
Moreover, their special genes grant them various unique abilities.
For instance, avian genetic warriors can even grow wings and fly, while beast genetic warriors possess immense power, agile speed, and some “animal” traits.
There are also insect genetic warriors.
Like “Spider-Man,” who belongs to the insect genetic warrior category.
These genetic warriors have varying strengths, with S-class genetic warriors being on par with Martial Arts Heavenly Beings and Daoist Divine Transcendence Realm practitioners.
“The most powerful genetic warriors are actually a group of angels created by the Divine Shield Agency’s [God Creation Project]. They surpass the S-class level with combat power comparable to the Sacred Realm… It is said that the agency discovered an ancient god’s corpse deep within the ocean at the Atlantis Ruins and developed the angels based on the ancient god’s genes. However, these angels are extremely rare, and our intelligence department hasn’t been able to gather any information on them.”
Interesting!
Xu Yang thought to himself…
Could these genetic warriors still be considered human?
Their genes have long since changed, and they strictly resemble “monsters.”
He wondered if killing them could earn him merit points…
Xu Yang asked about some overseas situations and learned that there were indeed zombies overseas!
It was said to have been caused by a leak of a biochemical experiment virus!
Aside from that, there were also monsters!
However, people here referred to them as “Warcraft.”
“Aside from overseas governments and the Western Magician’s Union, the two strongest forces overseas are the werewolf and vampire families… Both these great families have long lives and powerful abilities and have been developing for countless years in overseas lands. Their influence spreads across many countries and should not be underestimated… We’ve even lost some of our personnel to vampires.”
When mentioning werewolves and vampires, Xu Yang suddenly remembered “Chris.”
He took out a silver container from his storage space and placed it on the table.
“This is…”
“The Evil Sealing Bottle?”
As a member of the Supernatural Affairs Bureau, Zhuge Zheng naturally recognized the container.
While opening the lid of the Evil Sealing Bottle, Xu Yang said, “That’s right, this is the Evil Sealing Bottle, and inside, I’ve sealed the ghost of a werewolf… Chris, come out!”
Whoosh!
Yin winds rolled within the silver container.
The werewolf spirit, Chris, flew out of the Evil Sealing Bottle, looked at Xu Yang, and hesitantly asked, “Ce… Celestial Master Xu, have we arrived in the West yet?”
“Ding!”
“The werewolf was frightened, merit points +100.”
The beep sounded in his mind, and Xu Yang casually cut a piece of steak, chewing slowly as he nodded, “I’m already in the West. This is Miami, Florida… Chris, does your Blood Clan have any strongholds here in Miami?”
