Chapter 3932 - 3951: A Done Deal
"The mission reward is actually only five million, and the other five million is an additional bonus."Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Secretary Bai didn’t give us material compensation, but obviously, if we really need her help, she certainly won’t refuse, and that value can’t be measured by money."
Lan Shuiying laughed, "That’s right, she gave us her contact information separately when we parted and said if we encounter difficulties, we can find her. She didn’t intend to just give us some money as a reward."
Lin Chen answered frankly, "Can someone who serves as the City Lord’s secretary be a simple character? We’ve already shown unique value, plus the life-saving grace, Others will naturally establish good relationships with us. If she gives money, it might actually disrupt this tacit understanding."
"Although we’re a new arrival, do we lack money? Oh, maybe we do lack money, but it’s not the most lacking."
The two women nodded, agreeing with Lin Chen’s statement.
Interpersonal relationships are indeed like this, you come and go, and doesn’t it become familiar?
This time Lin Chen helped Secretary Bai, she finds an opportunity to help Lin Chen, this back and forth builds friendship, doesn’t it?
"Let’s go back and wait, I estimate the Science Council there should be ready soon."
Three people waited for two days, not for a phone call from Dr. Ning from the Science Council, but instead received a phone call from Secretary Bai.
"I have already reported your situation to the City Lord. The City Lord values it greatly and personally contacted Dr. Ning there. Then both sides will collaborate to carry out scientific research on 235 Lost Ball and evaluate its potential value."
"If this scientific research results in something good, it might give you a way out, but specifically, you have to wait for the investigation results."
Lin Chenxin relaxed and expressed gratitude, "Thank you, Secretary Bai."
Secretary Bai laughed, "It’s a small thing, and if this matter is accomplished, your existence can play a certain role for the Federation. So we all have a significant contribution, saying that this is a mutually beneficial thing."
Lin Chen laughed, "Then let’s hope for a good result."
Secretary Bai’s voice was clear and friendly, "Dr. Ning said that you and Xuan Ji will lead the team back, estimated to depart within these Two days, the municipal hall will send Zhang Zhongjiu as a representative to cooperate with the Science Council. Just work well with them."
"The City Lord and Dr. Ning mentioned your help this time, and Dr. Ning also made a statement. After you come back, regardless of the scientific research results, you’ll be given freedom."
Lin Chen’s eyes brightened. With the City Lord representing, then our group having freedom is a sure thing.
The Science Council, despite its special status, after all, this branch is set up in Jinghai City. They can’t possibly ignore the City Lord, considering the City Lord isn’t a simple character either.
"Secretary Bai, please thank the City Lord for me!"
Secretary Bai laughed, "When you return safely and regain freedom, the City Lord will personally invite you to meet, if you want to thank her, you can tell her in person then."
"Alright!"
Secretary Bai smiled, "There’s too much to be done these days, I won’t come to see you separately. I will wait for your return."
Lin Chen turned his head and laughed, "Did you all hear that?"
Yao Xuanji nodded, with anticipation in his eyes, "I hope it’s a good result, otherwise, the Federation is determined to purify our world, no one can stop it."
Lin Chen sighed, "We are still too weak, without enough bargaining power, we have to keep striving!"
Yao Xuanji smiled bitterly, "Our efforts seem endless, earlier in the Immortal Realm, we barely became Quasi-Saint but were suppressed by the Immortal Emperor and others, unable to grow further."
"You barely survived going to the Heavenly God Realm, went through many dangers, and finally became Heaven Deity. Our family could become the rulers of the Heavenly God Realm, only to be captured by the Federation in the blink of an eye."
"A dignified Heaven Deity, ruler of the Universe, suddenly turned into a small character, once again trampled by others..."
Lin Chen laughed, "It’s not as bad as you say. We now have strength almost equivalent to Sixth-level Peak Martial Warrior. As long as we improve a little more, then we’d count as Experts."
"Look at Zhang Zhongjiu, Seventh-level Warrior, striding forward, he’s quite formidable, isn’t he?"
Lan Shuiying frowned, "Previously, as a new arrival, I didn’t quite think so. But I always thought Zhang Zhongjiu shouldn’t just be a Seventh-level Warrior."
"Secretary Bai in her Phoenix Battle Armor and the Skull Bandit Leader, their strength should be no less than Seventh-level Warriors. But I didn’t feel that kind of despair facing Zhang Zhongjiu from them."
Yao Xuanji agreed, "I think so too. Even with his bare body, Zhang Zhongjiu confronted us, and we dared not move, fearing instantaneous annihilation. I feel he’s much stronger than the Skull Bandit Leader."
After a pause, Yao Xuanji asked curiously, "Could it be that Zhang Zhongjiu has too many high-tech products on him?"
Lin Chen laughed, "Who knows? Wasn’t he relegated here from Planet 011? And he possesses wormhole jumping, evidently he was anything but simple before, let’s say our luck is too good."
Yao Xuanji nodded, agreeing, "Yes, this luck could win a lottery, but thinking from another perspective, isn’t this a way out from heaven?"
"Clearly, the Lost Ball couldn’t escape the fate of purification, but just because we met him, he caught us and then we showed our unique abilities in front of the City Lord and Science Council, leading to this scientific research journey."
"Although the result is unknown, whether it can give Dajia a way out, it’s still an opportunity, rather than facing destruction and immediate purification into chaos without even understanding the situation."
Lin Chen laughed, "Yes, that’s the saying that fortune and misfortune are interdependent. If the result is good, this matter becomes a good thing. Moreover, whether it’s Dr. Ning, Zhang Zhongjiu, or the City Lord, they are influential figures. If we can become friends with them or bind our interests together, then we’ll be more at ease in the Federation."
Lan Shuiying thought for a while and seriously asked, "If, I’m saying if, the scientific research ends, they find our existence valuable and are willing to give us a way out, and we regain freedom, would you choose to return to the Heavenly God Realm to be Heavenly Deity, or stay in the Federation, embarking on a new journey?"
Lin Chen blinked and turned his head to look at Yao Xuanji.
Yao Xuanji smiled slightly, "I’ll follow your lead."
Lin Chen pondered seriously and said in a deep voice, "Even if we prove our value, whether in the Immortal Realm or the Heavenly Demon Realm, they might be controlled by the Federation in the future."
"Even if we stay in the Heavenly God Realm, we are the puppet under the Federation’s long arm jurisdiction, not truly free and unrestrained. Hence, I hope more people can come out, grow within the Federation, and eventually make their voice heard..."
