261: Chapter 250 Supervision Group 261: Chapter 250 Supervision Group [Moon Ring Street]
This is the central street in Moon City.
Due to limited spending power and few travelers, there are no comrcial pedestrian streets here, only a few slightly taller cent office buildings.
It is evident that these office buildings once housed many small companies and offices, but now they are largely empty.
Making a business in Moon City basically invovles losing money; even the rcury Group bears substantial losses and risks just to establish a hotel here.
The office buildings standing in the city center are mostly restricted, with only the ground floors rented out cheaply, housing so eateries and massage shops.
When Luo Di first arrived, he was even handed a small card, and the person even made further attempts to pull and touch him, which were promptly dissuaded with a stern glance.
According to the address on the card, he found the only fully rented cent office building, ten stories high with every floor lit up, indicating “work in progress”.
Moreover, the shops on the first floor of this building are all closed off completely, with sothing seemingly hidden behind the fully rolled-down shutters.
The residents living here seem to know sothing as well, keeping away from the building; even when needing to pass by, they would opt to walk on the opposite side of the street to avoid this building.
Equally strange is that
this building has no security asures set up, no stationed security guards, and no surveillance caras; just standing in the city center unapproached, even the Pseudo-People steer clear of it.
Luo Di is currently waiting for the traffic light.
Just by stepping over the crosswalk in front of him, he will reach this peculiar building, also the address on the business card.
As the traffic light changes,
he steps towards the building.
This action imdiately draws the attention of passersby and custors at nearby shops, who montarily stop what they’re doing, casting surprised glances.
Among them, so hidden Pseudo-People are also present.
Luo Di pays no attention to the staring crowd; he simply walks across the pedestrian crossing at his own pace.
The mont he steps onto the curb across the street,
a buzzing sound rings in his mind.
Accompanied by a sensation of passing through a thin mbrane, a vague spiritual mbrane.
In an instant, the various faint sounds from the street corners that were previously audible are completely blocked out.
Everything becos quiet, and even the scenery of the street behind him blurs, leaving only the cent building in front of him unchanged.
The feeling of being watched crawls over his entire body like a reptile.
Luo Di can distinctly feel soone on the top floor of the building observing him, an intuitive peering straight into his thoughts, no wonder no one dares to co near this place.
“Every closed shopfront here is set with a Barrier…
being used as a warehouse to store sothing?”
Luo Di arrives at the only main entrance of this building,
which does not have glorious doors and lobby structure like rcury Hotel.
There’s just a small door, leading to a long, straight corridor that ends at the far end, with tungsten filant bulbs which have been hanging for years providing faint yellow light.
The straight corridor has no compartnts on either side.
Only at the end, there are elevators and staircases on both sides.
Luo Di intended to take the elevator directly to the top floor, but seeing that the elevator door had a maintenance sign, he turned towards the nearby staircase.
And the structure of the staircase is strange indeed.
It does not lead directly to the top floor, but only to the second floor.
As Luo Di ascends the stairs, his spine oddly begins to wriggle slightly, as if sensing sothing enticing.
And Luo Di himself hears a sound, similar to the one heard in the Fighting Hall arena, a sound of intense flesh-to-flesh collision.
Pushing open the second-floor partition door.
A strong scent of blood and sweat hits him.
The entire large open space turns out to be structured as a gymnasium, dominated by boxing rings besides various heavy-duty equipnt.
Bodybuilders akin to those on TV shows gather here, so so muscular they look like giant bears, with biceps larger than so people’s heads.
A few are engaged in extre weightlifting, flaunting protein powders, even performing injections of substances on-site.
Most are gathered around the boxing ring.
The fight taking place on the ring is not just simple sparring or boxing but a real combat necessitating the activation of the Cornered system.
While avoiding critical hits and aiming to stop at the point, bloody splatters are common.
As soon as one contestant can no longer hold up, another imdiately takes their place.
These muscular n continuously undergo violent training, and their postures and displayed strength are even stronger and more aggressive than the Murderer group from the orphanage.
These n are what’s known as Moon City inspectors, each holding multiple pituitary resources.
They are more brutal and savage than ordinary City Investigators, all being physical ability users at the body system level, even giving Luo Di a sense of being among the Murderer group.
With Luo Di’s arrival,
the action on the ring slowly stops, be it the combatants, those waiting, or the muscle-bound n lifting weights, all stop their activities and turn their gaze.
Casting a very strange friendly look, instantly wiping away the previously existing Killing Intent.
One of the muscular behemoths closest to him very gentlemanly makes an inviting gesture, pointing to the staircase across this floor.
“Mr.
Luo Di, the Venerable is waiting for you on the top floor!
Please go up the stairs, and if you are interested in our training room, you are welco to co over anyti after the conversation.”
“Hmm.”
As Luo Di crossed the gym, these people still made no movents, maintaining their gaze, following him with their eyes.
Only when Luo Di entered the staircase and headed to the third floor did they re-enter their training state.
The staircase on the opposite side remained limited to going up only one floor.
When Luo Di pushed open the door on the third floor, he was confronted with a modern dical area, where a few investigators were receiving treatnt, even undergoing so physical modifications.
The staircase leading to the next floor was still located opposite, requiring Luo Di to cross the entire floor.
Similar to the situation in the gym, these people stopped their work upon seeing Luo Di’s arrival, giving him friendly gazes.
Luo Di also figured out that the malfunction of the elevator was probably intentional.
The Venerable wanted him to understand the structure and status of the entire investigative group floor by floor.
First floor – Warehouse
Second floor – Fitness Training
Third floor – dical Repair
Fourth and fifth floors – Pituitary Research, Integration, and Implantation
Fifth and sixth floors – Docunt Managent Area
Seventh floor – Surveillance Room (caras throughout Moon City are networked with the servers here)
Eighth floor – eting Room
Ninth floor – Interdiate Layer
Tenth floor…
As Luo Di approached the top floor, that familiar walnut clashing sound echoed in his ears again.
The discomfort caused by the sound, and the feeling of his brain being probed grew stronger.
Luo Di placed his left hand on his face.
“Torture Device Construction – Jaw Splitter”
The Hell torture device engulfed his skull, the searing heat burning away all external perceptions approaching; that prying sensation disappeared imdiately, and Luo Di’s mind beca clear, no longer producing any ringing in his ears.
The door on the top floor opened by itself.
This was a pure white space devoid of any furnishings, with a scent in the air, a brain scent processed to lessen the pungency.
The sll originated from the floor and walls of the room.
Luo Di then turned to look at the pure white wall beside him, under the white paint were buried shallow brain grooves; upon close observation, one could even sense the wall’s liveliness and movents.
As Luo Di completely stepped into the ditation Room located on the top floor, his brain also received so kind of nourishnt, his pituitary as if lying on a soft bed it had never experienced before, obtaining the most comfortable sleep.
The previously encountered Venerable stood at the very center.
To be precise,
It was Benjamin Stewart.
The chief responsible officer of the Moon City inspection group, Special Commissioner dispatched from the Capital City.
He was chewing on the sa walnut-like snacks, holding the walnuts in his hand while waiting for Luo Di’s arrival.
The pure white suit he wore at this mont appeared different, displaying patterns similar to brain grooves.
“have a sit!”
With a wave of his hand.
A table and two chairs grew from the ground, maintaining their liveliness.
It was then that Luo Di realized the room was not just utilizing a brain mbrane coating; it itself was a huge Cornered Tool.
Since he chose to co here, Luo Di did not reject the environnt and went forward to take a seat.
“The brain~ the most successful structure in human evolution.
It determines that we can easily stand at the top of the food chain without needing physical superiority.
Even the formation and influence of the Corners start with our brains.
This organ also represents the biggest difference between individuals.
Even among Pseudo-People, the brain often determines the quality of their pituitary, the expression of fear, and the depth of connection with the Corner.
In my view, Mr.
Di, apart from keeping up with physical exercises, should also strengthen training his brain.
After all, Connectors like you are very few nationwide.
Great to have you here, this is a eting gift, if Mr.
Di likes, please accept it.
It will provide good nourishnt for your brain, for your pituitary related to the Cthulhu Myth.”
Having said that,
Benjamin gently pushed a tal box over, containing the sa kind of snacks; even through the sealed lid, a strong scent could be slled.
Seeing Luo Di making no move, Benjamin did not insist.
“Then, let’s get straight to the point, and talk about the orphanage and matters between you and .”
