Infinite Divine Gears in the City

Chapter 19

“What’s going on now?”

“Captain! According to the examinations and calculations, the source of the explosion is in this room.”

Shortly after Li Rui left with the ambulance, a special squad walked along the trail and entered his house.

Most of them were dressed in casual clothes. The leader was a middle-aged man who was dressed like a successful person. The slim black suit and an over-the-knee windbreaker made him look like a delicate British gentleman. The way he carried himself revealed a trace of power.

Clink, clink.

The leather shoes that were stepping on the glass pieces made a sharp noise. The middle-aged man stood in Li Wei’s bedroom, and there was a flash in his eyes.

“The stink of the spirit, and there is pure Yang blood that has not dissipated. It should be a new awakener.”

“Spirit? There are people who still dare to raise spirits in Shanghai? What the h*ll!”

A beautiful woman standing behind him gritted her teeth and swore in a low voice.

“There are always some people who can’t stand the temptation of power but the spirit is not the point. The point is the destruction of the spirit!”

The captain’s mouth had a bright smile on his face as if he had discovered a rare treasure.

“The spirit is destroyed? By the awakened newcomer? How is that possible? That is a spirit of the Black Iron rank! It can come and go without a trace, slipping by. If you are not a psionic expert, even a Silver rank may not be able to destroy it!”

The woman’s expression was shocked and she shook her head.

“Do you think that the explosion of glass over 100 meters away is just physical damage? This is just the aftermath. I think the real damage is concentrated on the body of the spirit, and the rest… Hehe.”

He gently flicked his palms. As the team member panicked, a fan-shaped area appeared in front of them. All the objects in the range turned into flying ashes and they were blown out of the window by the strong wind.

“This is a very powerful psionic attack. This blow is should be a Bronze… No… Silver power!”

“I seem to see a genius who was angrily awakened when he was forced to reach his limit by the spirit. He roared and shattered it into pieces!”

The captain crouched down and touched the ground which exposed reinforced concrete. His face was full of excitement.

“This is a young dragon! With proper training, he can become the pillar of the country!”

The team members who followed him were speechless. Could a new awakener kill a spirit by himself?

Did he cheat?

“Zhang Ming, search up this household’s information.”

Upon hearing the captain’s command, Zhang Ming woke up from the shock and quickly took out his portable smart terminal. He found the informations that was wanted in less than a minute.

“The owner of the household is Li Rui and he has just turned an adult this year. He has a younger sister living with him.”

“The mother is Liu Yurong and his father, Li Hongyi, has passed away…”

“Wait. Li Hongyi is a martyr. He has hidden information and needs special permission… Let me see…”

“Oh! Captain Cao, Li Hongyi is a martyr who was sacrificed in The Siege of Xiangxi and was awarded the first-class merit by Chase!” Zhang Ming exclaimed softly and his tone started becoming serious.

“The Siege of XiangXi? I didn’t expect that he is my comrade’s children…”

The captain looked out the window. There were pain and nostalgia in his eyes.

That battle was tragic. They gathered most of the Transdendents in China just to wipe out that thing!

During that battle, thousands of elite warriors lost their lives. He didn’t expect he would see his comrade’s children here in Shanghai.

After his exclamation, he could not help but feeling a trace of joy in his heart.

A martyrs’ children. This political review was easy!

If he could take him in and cultivate him carefully, then he could retire peacefully after a few years…

As he was thinking, the sound of dull footsteps came from behind.

A man who was more than two meters tall, like a lion, majestically stooped into the doorway.

“Chao Zhi? Why are you here? Where is Xiao Rui?”

The man frowned when he saw the crowd.

“Your honor… Um…*cough cough… Brother Lei, why are you here?”

Everyone who was in the tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed and then everyone greeted him intimately.

Only Captain Cao Zhi had an unknown bad hunch and he squinted at him.

“Wang Lei, why are you here?”

“I heard that something has happened to my brother’s home, so I came to check it out.”

“Li Rui is your brother? No wonder the attack was so violent!”

Zhang Ming immediately thought about it and spoke with excitement.

Three black lines appeared on Cao Zhi’s forehead and the corners of his eyes couldn’t help twitching. He slapped him hard on the back of his head.

“AHHHHH !!”

Zhang Ming screamed and looked innocently at his captain. He kept quiet and hid by a corner.

“Umm… there was a special case here today so we came to investigate.”

“Shut up with that. Where is Xiao Rui?”

“Li Rui should be the one who caused it. What is your relationship with him?” 𝐟𝘳𝐞ℯ𝚠e𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫𝘦𝙡. c𝑜𝐦

“Brotherhood…”

Wang Lei looked around and asked in a low voice, “Anyone dead?”

“No. Only 28 people were slightly injured.”

Zhang Ming looked at the information on the terminal and answered instantly.

What the f*ck! Sh*t the f**k up!

Cao Zhi gave him a death stare, which caused Zhang Ming to shrink back to his corner.

“Um… although there were no major casualties, the property loss of the people is quite serious and the impact done is extremely bad …”

“Are you going to recruit him into the advisory team?”

Wang Lei interrupted him relentlessly.

“Cough, cough, cough…”

Cao Zhi was preparing to painfully give a speech of more than ten minutes. Wang Lei choked him back with one sentence and this time, he really choked on his own saliva.

Whilst looking at Wang Lei’s questioning eyes, Cao Zhi rolled his eyes.

Although this guy was reckless but he was definitely not stupid!

He didn’t have to say things to fool him.

“I may have plans.”

“Then you can give it up now. Xiao Rui works with me.”

Wang Lei waved his hand and made a decisive decision.

“Why? You can take anyone to work with you! I finally found a talent who can pass the political trial! Why must you fight with me?”

“First come first served!”

“F*ck you! Our advisory team counts as public duties for the nation which gives excellent treatment and high social status, which is so much better than yours!”

“Just because we work on opposite grounds? So what? You’re looking down at people like us?”

As he noticed?Wang Lei’s face that was filled with rage, Cao Zhi shut his mouth as he realized that what he said was wrong.

“Ah… Actually, there’s another reason why I don’t want him to enter the advisory team…”

Wang Lei sighed when he saw Cao Zhi admitting his mistakes.

“What? What;s wrong with him?”

Cao Zhi started becoming nervous. If such a genius went down the wrong road, it is likely to cause a red disaster (aka annihilation of the country).

It is also possible that a black disaster (aka doomsday) might happen.`

“He and I are the same type of person. Wild, untameable, and unrestrained. If he joins the advisory team, sooner or later he will get into trouble. It might be better to set him free, which is more conducive to his growth…”

Wang Lei paused for a second and continued. “Working with me is also working for the country. With him under my watch, you don’t have to worry about him.”
