If Zhou Tong had always been within their sight, it would have been one thing, but now that the guy had disappeared, it was no longer just a piece of news.
Regarding his father's situation, to be honest, both you and Zhang Xianyue were being overly anxious. Qin Yu was exceptionally intelligent; after the incident occurred, he quickly grasped all the relationships involved. In his view, there should have been a more prudent approach to handling the matter.
Instructor, you’ve said everything there is to say. Instead of wasting time on that, it would be better to track Zhou Tong's whereabouts again. Lin Han let out a helpless sigh. He didn’t want to dwell on what had already happened; he would rather focus on executing the secret mission assigned to him by the Military Department.
A moment later, Qin Yu emerged from Lin Han's room, and the approachable expression he had just worn vanished in an instant. At this point, someone had already begun to contact him: they hadn’t found the person yet, but there were some other leads. The internal division within the Zhou Group was severe, and the one currently holding power was Zhou Peng, who had recently met with their target.
“Continue investigating. We are not particularly interested in the group itself, but if they dare to retaliate against our students, I will make them understand why the Military Academy stands strong!” Qin Yu said as a teleportation array began to form beneath his feet. If it weren’t for the need for strict execution of this mission, he wouldn’t have had to come back to Di Jing again.
Meanwhile, in a room on the top floor of a hotel, Zhang Xianyue was fiddling with a Magic Cube, intently staring at the computer screen. The assassination of the head of the Zhou family had caused issues in their resource chain, giving Yuelun an opportunity to stake a claim in those lucrative industries. This was precisely the outcome Zhang Xianyue aimed to achieve.
However, there was still one problem looming over them: Zhou Tong’s disappearance remained a hidden danger. At that moment, a message arrived on his computer: “Little Boss, we’ve wrapped up matters over there. In the mining industry, we’ve secured acquisitions on both sides; barring any unforeseen circumstances, we’ve established a foothold in this sector.”
Seeing this result, the Little Boss let out a sigh. With such a substantial industrial chain as support, even if problems arose in the future, they wouldn’t be thrown into chaos immediately.
In the Star Dragon Empire’s border region near Di Jing, Lin Han walked alone along the imperial border with a steady gaze. Previously, Qin Yu had briefed him on certain matters concerning the Shiva Empire's professionals. Those individuals had long been nourished by demonic powers and possessed the ability to wield such powers themselves.
However, the exact nature of those Professionals remains unclear, even to the Military Department. This area is, after all, a border zone between two countries, and it is not uncommon for fierce beasts to roam here, making the territorial divisions rather ambiguous.
Lin Han's mission here involves not only eliminating those individuals but also, according to Qin Yu's instructions, extracting as much useful information as possible. This forest is known as the Land of Heartwrenching Cry, named for the presence of a ferocious beast called the Jiji Crying Night Owl that has been known to inhabit the area for many years.
As night approached, Lin Han felt a sense of urgency. It wasn't that he feared the nocturnal Night Owls; rather, he understood that his mission required stealth. Engaging with the fierce beasts at this time would ultimately be unwise.
Yet, Lin Han also considered that he could find a way to use these beasts to locate the Professionals from the Shiva Empire hidden within this forest.
