The 20th floor of the central building was no different from the central command hall of a starship. There were hundreds of virtual screens, control panels arranged in a neat and orderly manner, holographic projections and virtual maps that were constantly being produced, and staff members who were busy walking back and forth … All of this ensured the safe operation of the Flying Star City.
The empty space in the middle of the hall was very spacious. There was only a giant light screen that was constantly producing all kinds of patterns and data. A man in an officer's uniform with a buzz cut was observing the information on the screen.
It was not until Ren Zhan and the others entered the hall that he turned around and quickly walked over. He did not even greet Ren Zhan first. Instead, he extended his hand to Brother Jia with a big smile on his face. "What a rare guest, Brother Jia Mao. How many years has it been since we last met? Welcome to the Flying Star City."
Jia Mao also politely shook his hand and smiled. "Qiang Zi, you're really impressive now that you're commanding such a huge system."
Qiang Wei chuckled. "You're laughing at me, aren't you?
I can brag in front of other people, but do I dare to brag in front of you, Jia Mao?
When we were still in Dream Star Academy, we said that if any of us brothers were to become rich in the future, we would never show off in front of our own people. "
Jia Mao's expression also seemed to be somewhat emotional. He extended his hand and patted Qiang Wei's shoulder. "Qiang Zi, don't say anything else. Anyway, I'm very happy to see you here."
Qiang Wei laughed heartily. "Now that this matter has been settled, you have to stay in the Flying Star City for a few days no matter what. Let us brothers have a good gathering …"
After the two of them finished their small talk, Ren Zhan opened his mouth and asked, "Qiang Zi, have you received the message?"
Qiang Wei finally stopped smiling and put on a humble expression. "I received it a long time ago. The Celestial Wolf Corps is obliged to cooperate unconditionally with Miss Bing's request."
As he spoke, he looked at the big screen in the center. His tone changed again. "However, we haven't found any trace of Ding Meng yet. That kid is too slippery. He clearly slipped into the first floor, but we can't find him anywhere."
Jia Mao frowned and said, "You can't find any clues in the core control room?"
As a matter of fact, the question was rather abrupt. He was simply expressing his dissatisfaction. Isn't the investigation system of the Flying Star City a bit outdated?
However, Qiang Wei was not angry. He replied with a smile, "Jia Mao, you don't know how much money is needed. It takes a lot of effort to operate the Star Ring. Save as much as you can. I'm not like you. With Young Master Feng and Miss Bing, you can get whatever you want. Haha, I can't wait to envy you."
Jia Mao smiled. "You're joking again …"
While the few of them were having a friendly exchange, Ding Meng, who was behind them, felt his heart sink. He had already understood that after the negotiation with Huang Long, the marshal had contacted Lan Bing. This time, Lan Bing had sent two people to find him, and they had arrived rather quickly.
This Lan Bing was really like a lingering spirit.
None of the people gathered in the central hall were weak noobs. All of them were experts. If Ren Zhan, Qiang Wei, Jia Mao, and Ren Tu were to join forces, Ding Meng would definitely not dare to face them head-on.
As for the man in a suit next to Jia Mao, he could not see through him. He was younger than Jia Mao, about 26 or 27 years old. However, his expression was unusually calm. He silently stared at the ground, as if the cooperation between the two parties had nothing to do with him.
However, Ding Meng had reason to believe that the people sent by Lan Bing were not ordinary people.
Fortunately, Qiang Wei was already asking, "By the way, Brother Jia Mao, how should I address this little brother?"
Ren Zhan and Ren Tu also noticed the strange behavior of this person. The young man suddenly closed his eyes. He looked as if he was thinking about something. He did not even open his mouth to answer Qiang Wei's question.
Jia Mao smiled apologetically. "Qiang Zi, this is my assistant. You can call him Xiao Long. Xiao Long is a statistician. He doesn't like to talk much. Please understand. Miss Bing specially sent him to assist us this time."
"Oh …" Qiang Wei's expression was thoughtful. He looked as if he did not care.
Although he did not care, Ding Meng quickly raised his guard. This was because Xiao Long's expression reminded him of someone. It was Randy, who had been killed by Lan Bing.
As expected, after Xiaolong pondered for ten seconds, he suddenly opened his eyes. His first sentence shocked everyone present. "According to my calculations, Ding Meng has already infiltrated the ninth floor. The probability of this is as high as 61.52%."
"This …" Ren Zhan was stunned.
Qiang Wei was also shocked. "Really?"
Jia Mao smiled and explained, "Qiang Zi, Xiao Long's' Rehearsal Mental Cultivation Method 'has reached a certain level. Miss Bing especially appreciates him."
If Xin Jie was present, he would definitely mock Jia Mao mercilessly. What kind of level is this? If he really practiced it to a certain level, Ding Meng would not even be able to enter this building. His position would have been calculated long ago.
Ding Meng's heart was also in his throat. He had seen the power of statisticians. Randy was so good at calculating, but the probability of his calculation was not more than 30%. But this guy opened his mouth and said that the probability was more than 60%. It was enough to show that this guy's calculation ability was much better than Randy's.
Qiang Wei cast a doubtful glance at Young Dragon before he waved his hand to the side. "Young Qi, give the order to increase the intensity of the patrols by one level. If you see Ding Meng, beat him to death. We can talk about the bounty …"
Actually, deep down, he did not believe this Xiao Long. He gave this order just to give Jia Mao some face. They were all old classmates, so it was fine as long as he gave them face.
But as soon as he gave the order, a sharp and thin voice came from behind. "You guys are the ones who deserve to die. How dare you give out a reward. You guys are really tired of living …"
Looking in the direction of the voice, Qiang Wei's eyes suddenly lit up. "Is this the girl that Huang Long likes?
Not bad, so hot. "
Dai Yi began to struggle again, but he was held down tightly by the two mercenaries. His hands were tied behind his back by energy chains, so it was useless no matter how hard he struggled.
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk!"
Qiang Wei let out a sigh of admiration. "Little girl, you're quite hot. I was wondering why Huang Long, who has always been more steady, would make such a mistake. So it was because of you. Little girl, you're really not bad."
Jia Mao had been quietly watching all this, but when he saw Qiang Wei's fiery gaze, he suddenly said something shocking. "Qiang Zi, since you think she's not bad, how about I hand her over to you?
I came in a hurry this time, so I didn't prepare any gifts. She can be considered the sincerity of the Extreme Heaven Company to cooperate with the Sky Wolf Army. What do you think? "
Before Qiang Wei could answer, Ren Zhan answered first. "Brother Jia, we appreciate your kindness, but Miss Yan is still in Ding Meng's hands. It's best if we don't touch Miss Dai."
He was the first one to speak up for Ren Zhan, and now he was also the one to speak up for Ren Zhan. Therefore, Ding Meng's judgment was not wrong at all. Among this group of people, Ren Zhan was the most steady and shrewd one.
Because of Jia Mao's words, Ren Zhan immediately felt the other party's sinister intentions. If Qiang Wei really did something to Dai Yi, the Sky Wolf Army and the Dai Family would have no room for negotiation. Although the Dai Family was much weaker than the Chu Family, what was the Sky Wolf Army in the middle?
You're deliberately pushing us into the fire pit.
Ren Tu had obviously thought this through as well, and hurriedly added, "That's right, I'm not sure about Miss Yan's exact situation yet. It's best to wait until we have news of her before making a decision."
Jia Mao looked at the two of them with a smile that was not a smile. "Since Brother Ren and Captain Ren are so insistent, then we'll deal with it according to your wishes. As an outsider, it's not convenient for me to interfere in the internal affairs of the Sky Wolf Army, but …"
His tone changed again, and the second half of his sentence was directed at Qiang Wei. "Qiang Zi, this kind of woman is not bad. It's very rare to meet someone like her. If you miss this village, you won't have another chance. Why don't you seize this opportunity?"
Fuck!
Ren Zhan and Ren Tu cursed in their hearts at the same time. You bastard, you really know how to threaten people.
Actually, Qiang Wei understood very well. How was this missing out on a beauty like Dai Yi?
It was missing out on the opportunity to work with Extreme Heaven Company. If you don't do her, then your Sky Wolf Army will not have the sincerity to work with us. If you really have the guts to do her, then we'll be on the same boat in the future. You can't be disloyal.
Jia Mao was already so tyrannical, so one could only imagine how overbearing Chu Yi Feng and Lan Bing 'er usually were.
Qiang Wei was still hesitating when Jia Mao laughed again. "Qiang Zi, don't worry. In the future, if there's any pressure from the Dai Family, our Young Master Feng and Miss Bing will help you. That's just a small matter. You and I are old classmates. Don't tell me you still don't know my character?"
These words dispelled the last trace of doubt in Qiang Wei's heart. He waved to the side. "Ah Fang!"
A well-dressed and tall female soldier walked over from the control station. "Brother Wei?"
Qiang Wei pointed at Dai Yi. "Take care of Miss Dai and send her to my room to rest. Miss Dai must be tired from the journey. We can't neglect her. I'll come over in a while to personally serve her …"
Although his words were dignified, Ah Fang's face was still expressionless. She had seen too many of these things in the Sky Wolf Army and was already numb to it.
Ah Fang walked forward and grabbed the chain in Dai Yi's hand. No matter how hard Dai Yi struggled, Ah Fang's hand was as steady as a rock.
Ding Meng could already see that the central command building was filled with experts. Any random female soldier was actually at the level of a beginner warrior. It wasn't hard to explain why the Sky Wolf Corps didn't care about the other forces in outer space. They really had the confidence to do so.
However, seeing Dai Yi being treated so crudely by the other party, Ding Meng was not moved. Instead, he looked calmer.
"Bastard, you bunch of scum. You'll all die a horrible death …" Dai Yi shouted as he struggled, but Ah Fang dragged him away like a chicken.
Once Dai Yi was dragged away, Ding Meng knew that it would be his turn next.
Sure enough, Ren Zhan explained to Qiang Wei, "This 54088 is the one who left his post without permission, causing Ding Meng to enter the command center and Miss Yan's whereabouts to be unknown. Qiang Zi, you deal with him as you see fit."
Qiang Wei immediately gave Ding Meng a cold look. "Military law or electrocution chamber. You choose!"
Ding Meng did not speak. He did not dare to speak at all.
Originally, he had planned to speak and bluff his way out of this, but after listening to this group of people, he gave up on this unrealistic hope. No one here was easy to deal with. They were all very experienced and ruthless. If he spoke, he would most likely be exposed.
However, his silence angered Qiang Wei. "Heh, look at you. You're still not convinced. Sit in the electric chair. You're not allowed to come down for 15 minutes. Get over there yourself. I'm too lazy to call anyone to detain you. Do you hear me?"
As soon as he heard this, Ding Meng felt as if he had been pardoned, and he slowly turned around.
However, before he could take two steps, Qiang Wei called out to him again. "Wait, come back here!"
Ding Meng could only slowly turn around. Qiang Wei took two steps forward, carefully sizing him up. Then, he coldly spat out four words.
"I recognize you!"
Crap!
This time, even Little Rascal was nervous. "If there's no other way, we'll strike first!"
Xiao Ai sighed. "But I'm afraid it'll be very difficult to clear out this group of Origin Ability users."
