At nine in the morning, Zhao Qian was allowed to leave the Processing Bureau, but he had to come back for questioning in the following days.

This kind of treatment was not very harmful to him personally, but it was enough to damage his reputation within the Company, especially after the last incident.

With a sullen face, he walked out of the Processing Bureau towards his armed special car. His assistant had already opened the car door for him. After he sat down in the car, the door was closed, and the assistant sat in the front seat.

The car started slowly and drove out of the square. The accompanying security personnel drove protective vehicles, protecting his special car in the front and rear.

Inside an apartment, Wu Bei sat within the Resonance Nest, using the Boundary Point to monitor this convoy.

United Power Heavy Industries Company undoubtedly had Resonators equipped with Resonance Nests, but those people were responsible for the Company's energy field defense and would not accompany Zhao Qian on his movements.

But this did not mean that there was no protection Strength around Zhao Qian . As you could see, there was a Resonator following him, ready to act at any time, so today's operation also needed to target this Resonator at the same time.

He discovered that the route the convoy was taking was also very particular. It didn't take the nearest straight route, but instead, it detoured, passing through all the bustling streets of Central City, because the municipal Security guard Strength in prosperous areas was also very sufficient, ensuring that there would be no problems with security to the greatest Limit.

Fortunately, all of this was within his prior consideration. He said to Chen Chuan , "Little Brother Chen, I'm about to start here. I'll send you the energy field signal in a moment, and it will start in about two minutes."

On the other end of the Boundary Token, Chen Chuan said, "Okay, I'm waiting."

Two minutes later, the vehicle Zhao Qian was in arrived at an intersection. After a Security guard vehicle in front passed, the Motorized vehicle traffic light happened to flash, turning red, so his special car had to stop slowly.

While waiting, Zhao Qian "s gaze drifted towards the opposite side of the intersection. It was originally just a casual glance, but at that moment, his gaze instantly froze.

Right there, a tall and upright young man with a sunny and cheerful demeanor was walking out of an upscale clothing store on the side of the road. He was carrying a bag in his hand, which seemed to contain clothes or something similar. As he came out, he politely nodded to the attendant who opened the door for him.

Although the young man was not wearing training clothes, and his face seemed a few years older and slightly different from before, that kind of spirit and temperament was all too familiar to him.

How could it be?

He couldn't help but sit up straight, but by the time he wanted to see more clearly, the young man turned around and walked towards the other side of the street. The green light in front happened to turn on, and the car started moving forward. Several cars turned at that moment, blocking his view. By the time he passed and looked back, he was already past that street corner.

He retracted his gaze and sat there, feeling uneasy, his face full of gloom.

He had personally witnessed that person's death that day, and there was absolutely no mistake. He repeatedly told himself that this person could not possibly still be alive, but...

A thought that he couldn't suppress emerged in his mind, wanting him to confirm it again.

After driving for a while, he instructed, "Turn around ahead, go back, and return to the intersection just now." As he spoke, he marked the location with his Boundary Token.

The driver looked and followed his instructions truthfully. After reaching the next intersection, he turned back. Seven or eight minutes later, he circled back to the intersection just now and stopped across from the upscale clothing store.

Zhao Qian looked around in the car, but he couldn't see the figure from just now again. He didn't say anything, and the others didn't dare to speak.

After a while, he instructed the assistant in front, "Go in and see who was buying clothes there just now, and ask what kind of person it was."

"Yes."

The assistant pushed the car door open and went down.

Zhao Qian used the Boundary Token to tell the Resonator in the other car, "Get me the energy field record from inside the store just now."

The Resonator replied, "Zhuoke Company places great emphasis on privacy. The energy field signal is very secure. Give me five minutes."

Zhao Qian leaned back in the car. The weather in April wasn't hot, but he felt very stuffy and irritable in the car. He moved the storage door of the car, took out a bottle of Pure Blood from inside, and poured a cup. Just as he was about to put it to his lips, his gaze inadvertently shifted to the rearview mirror, and the movement in his hand suddenly stopped.

A young man was striding towards him from the other side of the street.

His hands trembled slightly. That was a face he knew and hated. He would never forget that at Wuyi Academy, in the several public competitions, he had been defeated without exception, without even a glimmer of hope for victory.

Even now that he had reached the Third Limit, he thought he had long since gotten rid of that psychological shadow because of the other party's death, but when he saw the other party appear in front of him again, his eyes instantly became bloodshot.

Even if reason told him that this person was already dead and could no longer stand in front of him, when he saw that figure, his heart was still filled with uncontrollable anger and hatred in an instant.

You're not dead? How could you not be dead? How could you not die?!

As the figure gradually approached, he unbuttoned his coat, took it off, and threw it aside. Zhao Qian could see that wisps of patterns were spreading out from one of his fists and forearms, spreading towards his neck and cheeks. As he walked step by step, his hair fluttered in the wind, and the patterns became clearer.

Zhao Qian "s pupils suddenly shrank.

Mystic Form Force!

When the figure was still dozens of meters away from the vehicle, he suddenly quickened his pace and started running. Finally, he leaped up and landed from above towards the armed vehicle.

Zhao Qian stared intently. He couldn't be wrong. That posture, that attacking stance, was exactly the same as that figure back then, only faster and more swift!

You think I'm still the same as before?!

He let out a low roar from his chest. He pushed the door open, and in an instant, he came to the outside, looking at the figure coming from a high place, with his back to the light, and kicked towards him!

The two figures rapidly approached, and just as their fists and feet were about to make contact, it was as if the intertwined time collided at this moment.

However, in the next moment, Zhao Qian "s foot passed through the other party's body. The full-force kick landed in empty space, feeling hollow and without any force, causing his center of gravity to shift for a moment.

But after all, he had an extremely solid foundation. When he realized something was wrong, the Mutated Tissue on his body immediately twisted and pulled, allowing him to immediately stop his Strength.

In Gao Ming "s apartment building, Chen Chuan opened his eyes.

Success!

His hand was currently maintaining a punching posture. That punch just now was the one he threw.

Although as long as there were photos of Shen Zheng at the time, it would be possible to Simulation Shen Zheng "s appearance, a simple shadow could not deceive Zhao Qian , so among the photos sent, there were also some drawings depicting various postures of Shen Zheng in battle.

This looked like Chang Ba "s handwriting, and it should have been completed under the guidance of He Xiaoxing , which could ensure the restoration of Shen Zheng "s true situation.

But that wasn't enough. Wu Bei wasn't a Martial Artist and didn't know how Martial Artist fought, so from the beginning, his Boundary Token and Wu Bei "s Resonance Nest energy field were connected together, and he was responsible for expressing the real moves.

In this way, within a short move, they perfectly reproduced a Shen Zheng who had grown up a few years later, whose Strength had apparently entered the Third Limit!

He slowly lowered his fist.

Just now, Zhao Qian attacked his energy field, so it was the same as attacking him. The first conditions of the ritual had been met. Then, all that was needed was to find a proper opportunity, plus a suitable sacrifice, to launch the Supernatural Entity.

On the other side, Wu Bei also breathed a sigh of relief.

He wiped the sweat from his head. The process just now was relatively smooth. Zhao Qian didn't turn off the Boundary Token from beginning to end.

You had to know that Zhao Qian was using an implanted Boundary Token, which was already difficult to invade and interfere with. If there had been any action to turn it off just now, he would have had to adopt a disruptive interaction technology that could only be used in conjunction with the Resonance Nest, which could delay the shutdown time by one or two seconds.

Although Chen Chuan had told him that even a delay of one or two seconds would be enough, doing so could cause the Resonance amplitude to make him pass out in an instant, which might prevent him from helping later. Even if he had made arrangements beforehand, some unpredictable accidents could easily occur. The current result was perfect.

Zhao Qian stood on the empty street, security guards surrounding him, but they all had serious expressions, looking straight ahead, but their eyes were somewhat subtle.

Because they had just seen Zhao Qian inexplicably run out of the car and kick into the sky. If they didn't know that Zhao Qian had almost no Implant, they would have almost thought he had Functional Disorder Syndrome.

Zhao Qian "s face was gloomy as he looked around. Now he was sure that someone had used a simulated illusion energy field to target him.

But the situation just now was so reality, as if Shen Zheng had really appeared in front of him, especially the state of mind and Strength Technique conveyed, which could not be used by someone who was not familiar with him and extremely knowledgeable about Mystic Form Force.

If it wasn't Shen Zheng , then who could it be?

No, there was one other person.

Moreover, this person's threat was very great, and he was still wary of him.

But if this person really wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't use this kind of almost intimidating and ineffective method, and he wouldn't alert the enemy. freewēbnoveℓ.com

"supervisor ?"

The assistant walked out of the clothing store at this time. He looked around, then looked at both sides of the street, somewhat puzzled.

Without saying a word, Zhao Qian turned around and walked towards the car. Seeing this, the assistant quickly ran ahead and straightened the car door for him.

Zhao Qian bent down and got into the car. After settling down inside, he asked, "Did you find out?"

The assistant hurriedly bent over and said to the car, "I asked. The salesperson was unwilling to say at first, but I bought a piece of clothing and gave some tips. I learned that a tall and strong young man had come to the store just now, bought a piece of clothing, and left, but I don't know where he went."

At this time, the Resonator "s voice sounded, "supervisor , this store's energy field record has just been deleted."

Zhao Qian "s eyes were cold. He didn't say anything, just waved his hand. The assistant quickly went to the front passenger seat, the Security guard returned to the car, and the convoy started slowly again.

At this time, Zhao Qian contacted someone through the Boundary Token, "You go back to Yangzhi City for me and investigate something for me..."
