Chapter 672, Immortality
Inside Kong’s 31st Barrier, inside a plain official residence, there was a group of people in military uniforms waiting outside the door of the main hall, each of them holding a document in their hands as if they were waiting to report on their respective jobs.
They stood outside the main hall, looking at the thick dark red wooden door in front of them, the sound inside was completely blocked by this wooden door.
The officers stood solemnly, obviously there were chairs placed outside for them to rest, but today was rather special, because of Luo City’s matter causing the boss to be in a very bad mood, so much so that there wasn’t even a single person outside who dared to sit down.
At this time, another young man walked in outside the residence, he saw the others standing, so he smiled and looked for the butler: “How many bowls of rice did the boss eat today?”
When the officers inside saw the young man, they all whispered greetings and said hello, as if this young man had a high status.
The butler also saw the young man and was more cordial, whispered and explained, “The boss hasn’t eaten today.”
The young man kindly laughed: “I said why this group of people are all afraid to sit down.”
“You be careful too, the boss is in a bad mood.” The butler explained.
“What does it matter to me,” the young man said with a smirk, “It’s not like I’m the one who runs things in Luo City, if I go, I definitely won’t be put in such a good position by that Wang Wenyan kid. Old Liu, you brew a new pot of Dahongpao, I’ll bring it in for the boss later.”
“Okay.” The butler nodded.
In fact, the butler did not dare to utter a single breath in the official residence, when that boss in the official residence was in a bad mood, he was even more terrifying than the rumors from the outside world.
It was said that Kong Erdong, who was in charge of intelligence for the Kong Clan, was ferocious, while others dared to kill when they were angry, he was angry when he didn’t kill.
When the butler had brewed the tea and handed it to the young man along with the tray, only when the young man was ready to enter the house, the butler pulled him back again, “Wang Yun, don’t be rude today.”
“Don’t worry, I know in my heart.” The young man called Wang Yun said with a smile.
At this moment, Wang Yun pushed the door into the main hall with a tray in one hand, the officers outside were obviously relieved, as if as long as this young man called Wang Yun went in, their calamity today would be over.
Inside the Kong Erdong see someone actually push the door in, face more and more grim, but when he saw is Wang Yun, in turn suppressed his temper slowly said: “When did you come back, things go well? Did you find out what happened?”
“This morning back,” Wang Yun said with a smile, “This is not as soon as I heard that your old man is angry, I hurriedly ran over to ask for good health, you first drink a cup of tea.”
Kong Erdong skimmed him: “L.A. City thing to do a rotten, planning for four or five years of things, but one day to lose, even if it is me, but also have to go to face the wrath of the big boss above.”
“I’ve checked this matter clearly,” Wang Yun said, “I just came back from the L.A. side, Kong Erdong actually didn’t do anything wrong, the reason why this matter failed, there are two reasons.”
Kong Erdong did not say anything, he just waited for Wang Yun to continue.
“The first reason is that this Wang Wenyan that Wang Clan has been hiding is indeed a Transcendent, and there are many fishy things in Wang Clan’s actions this time around, including in the battle at Wangchunmen Changjie, the ones who ran away were mostly Wang Clan’s Transcendents, it was as if they had thought of running away from the very beginning, and didn’t expect to be able to kill Xu Ke in that battle at all. “Wang Yun said, “Wang Wenyan is a formidable opponent, Kong Erge and the others were inexplicably blown up in the safe house, I guess 80% of it was Wang Wenyan’s doing.”
“Continue.” Kong Erdong said.
“Second Brother Kong isn’t any mediocre, and there have been very few mistakes in the field over the years,” Wang Yun said thoughtfully, “so the fact that Wang Wenyan was able to blow them up without them being prepared for it also requires us to be vigilant. On the other hand, Wang was clearly the one who wanted the satellite the most, but they withdrew the fastest, I suspect that Wang has another way to seize the satellite, which may also have something to do with Wang Wenyan’s ability, in the case of Luocheng, Wang Wenyan is a very key figure. I wanted to find him and kill him, but this kid has already hid back in Wang, it’s not good to start.”
“Alright, you’re hung up on Wang’s side, there’s no need to go and risk your life,” Kong Erdong said calmly, “That laborious AI of Wang’s is afraid that if it finds out about you, I’m afraid that the entire transcendent of Wang’s will be hunting you down and killing you, tell me the second reason.”
“The second reason is just that mysterious Transcendent from the Northwest,” Wang Yun said, “His role in this L.A. incident is not trivial, he also has a lover who is good at using sniper rifles, later I went to check the bullet holes on the ground of the long street of Wangchunmen, this sniper alone killed a dozens, I think most Transcendents nowadays aren’t too willing to run into enemies like the two of them.”
“What about you?” Kong Erdong asked.
“I don’t want to run into them either,” Wang Yun smiled, “But this person doesn’t have any conflict of interest with my Kong Clan, so the chance of meeting them in the future isn’t too great, I think that he should, by now, have already returned to the Northwest, and this time it’s mostly considered to be a favor, and didn’t we hear about it in earlier years, saying that Zhang Jinglin had once traveled when he went to Luo City.”
Kong Erdong rubbed his brow, then took off his presbyopia glasses and put them on the table, “You went there, at least figured out Wang Wenyan’s bottom line, if others can also be so let me save my heart, what is your next plan?”
“Have you heard about the Fire Seed Company?” Wang Yun suddenly said.
“Of course I heard about it,” Kong Erdong glanced at Wang Yun, “Why, do you have an idea?”
“The Fire Seed Company is our neighbor, how can we not have ideas?” Wang Yun laughed, “And boss, if you think about it, after this incident in L.A., Anjing Temple is clearly on Wang’s side, not to mention whether or not it’s useful for us to get that Experiment 001, even if it’s just to sabotage Anjing Temple’s and Wang’s plans, so that they don’t get this Experiment, that would still be enough.”
At this time, Kong Erdong suddenly asked, “I heard that that Experiment Body 001 might have lived for more than two hundred years?”
Wang Yun froze for a moment, he did not expect Kong Erdong to be concerned about this aspect.
In the dark room, a ray of sunlight shone in through the gap in the curtains, Wang Yun looked at the old-fashioned glasses on the table that Kong Erdong had just put down, and it occurred to him that this boss of his was not young anymore.
When an old man stood at the pinnacle of power, when he became one person under one person and millions of people above him, what else could be pursued?
Long life and eternal power was what they wanted most, right?
Originally, Wang Yun didn’t care too much about this so-called Experiment 001, and he thought that Kong Erdong wouldn’t particularly care about it either, but at this moment he realized that he was wrong.
Because he was young, he had never bothered to covet something like immortality.
