89 The Loss Outweighs the Compensation? Chen Jinrong’s Plan
On the first floor of the military building.
Wang Xiao, who had returned to his original appearance, had just co out of the stairwell when he saw Chen Jinrong standing in the middle of the hall.
Unlike the casual clothes he had seen in the hospital previously, although Chen Jinrong was still smiling in his military uniform, he was less amiable and had a sharp and dignified aura that no one dared to look at directly.
With just this glance, Wang Xiao’s aura was at a disadvantage. He had forgotten all the words he had prepared previously. He lowered his head and walked over silently. He whispered like a child who had done sothing wrong, “Commander Chen, I’m sorry…”
!!
“Do you know what this behavior is called?”
Chen Jinrong smiled, but his tone was cold. “If you disguise yourself and sneak into the military’s important place, I can kill you as a spy. Moreover, I don’t need to explain to anyone.”
“I know…”
Wang Xiao lowered his head and replied softly, “The guards outside didn’t let in. I only thought of this thod in a mont of confusion… I was wrong.”
“Then will you still dare to do this next ti?”
“I won’t dare to anymore.”
Seeing Wang Xiao like this, Chen Jinrong finally could not help but laugh. “You’re quite bold and you also admit your mistake quickly… I won’t pursue this matter on account of your first offense. Scram!”
After saying that, Chen Jinrong turned around and left. Qi Lianjun went forward and made an “after you” gesture at Wang Xiao. “Let’s go. I’ll send you out.”
“Thank you…”
Wang Xiao nodded and suddenly realized that sothing was wrong. He hurriedly shouted at Chen Jinrong, who had already walked far away, “Commander Chen! I ca today to look for you for sothing very important!”
“It’s about the beast eggs, right?”
Chen Jinrong did not stop walking towards the elevator. “Then hurry up and follow! The elevator is not waiting for anyone!”
“Yes!”
Wang Xiao reacted and hurriedly chased after him. Almost as soon as he caught up to Chen Jinrong, the elevator door opened.
After the two of them entered the elevator, Qi Lianjun imdiately followed them in. However, he did not press the floor button and only gestured to the surveillance cara in the elevator.
Then, the elevator started. Wang Xiao was surprised to discover that the elevator was actually going down!
“Could Commander Chen’s office be underground? No wonder I couldn’t find it just now!”
Wang Xiao thought to himself, but he was not too surprised. After all, this was a military building, so it was normal for there to be so special arrangents.
After taking a deep breath, Wang Xiao looked at Chen Jinrong and asked, “Commander Chen, I ca today to ask you two things.”
Chen Jinrong was a little surprised and said, “Oh? I thought you were only here to ask about the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon].”
“You knew I would ask?”
This ti, Wang Xiao was really a little shocked. Could it be that the other party had long known that there was sothing going on with the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]?
Chen Jinrong did not answer. Instead, he asked another question, “What do you think is abnormal about the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]?”
“He really knows!”
Wang Xiao thought to himself. Then, he explained what he had discovered. He originally thought that Chen Jinrong would answer for him, but after waiting for a few minutes, Chen Jinrong had no intention of speaking.
“Commander Chen?”
Wang Xiao raised his voice, “Are you listening?”
Chen Jinrong nodded, but his eyes were fixed on the floor display. “I can answer your doubts, but before that, you have to promise sothing.”
Wang Xiao thought for a mont and probed, “Are you asking to keep it a secret?”
“You should know that even without saying it.”
Chen Jinrong smiled and his gaze landed on Wang Xiao’s face. “After the academy ranking assessnt next month, you guys are supposed to fill in your applications, right?”
Wang Xiao nodded. Chen Jinrong asked again, “Have you decided which university you want to go to?”
“Blue Planet University.”
Wang Xiao replied without thinking.
The Blue Planet University was the mostly highly ranked university in the hearts of all the lords of the Blue Planet.
Originally, with Wang Xiao’s [Beast Tar Lord] talent, it was almost impossible for him to enter Blue Planet University. However, now that he had the Ten Thousand Tis Increase System and his outstanding performance in the lord competition, it should not be a problem.
Chen Jinrong nodded and was not surprised by this answer. After a few seconds, he said softly, “I want you to give up on Blue Planet University and apply for Xiling Academy.”
Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this.
Xiling Academy was a newly opened university in the Xiling Region. It was ranked last among all the universities. There was no news about it after more than ten years of establishnt, nor was there any outstanding major. It was just an extrely ordinary university.
“Why?”
Wang Xiao asked in confusion, “Why Xiling Academy?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator that had been descending for nearly ten minutes suddenly stopped. As the elevator door opened, a cold air surged in.
“I won’t reveal anything to you until you agree.”
Chen Jinrong patted Wang Xiao’s shoulder and walked out of the elevator. “If you agree, follow . If you don’t… go back.”
“Go back if I don’t agree? Isn’t this a little unreasonable?”
Wang Xiao cursed in his heart and turned to look at Qi Lianjun.
After Chen Jinrong walked out of the elevator, Qi Lianjun did not follow him, as if he was waiting for Wang Xiao’s decision.
Three seconds later, Wang Xiao decisively walked out of the elevator.
He did not know why Chen Jinrong asked him to choose Xiling Academy, but he knew that the other party must have his own thoughts.
Moreover, no matter what Chen Jinrong was planning, the other party would definitely not harm him. Otherwise, the other party would not have said so much to him.
...
Outside the elevator was a straight, long, and narrow tal corridor. Although Wang Xiao had only considered it for three seconds, Chen Jinrong had already walked very far.
“Commander Chen!”
Wang Xiao caught up to Chen Jinrong and said seriously, “I can go to Xiling Academy. Can you tell what’s going on with the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] now?”
Chen Jinrong did not stop, as if he was not surprised by Wang Xiao’s decision. He paused for a mont and said softly, “It’s normal for you to think that the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] is different from the mutated beasts of the Blue Planet. This is because it’s not a species of our Blue Planet at all.”
“What do you an?”
Wang Xiao was stunned at first, then his expression suddenly changed as he thought of sothing. “The [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] is an outer realm creature?!”
“According to our analysis, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] is very likely a Crimson Star mutated beast.”
As Chen Jinrong spoke, he stopped and pointed behind Wang Xiao. “Because that was his personal item.”
Wang Xiao subconsciously turned around and realized that they had already gotten close to a room.
An observation window opened on the tal wall. Through the thick glass, one could see a world of ice and snow inside. In the middle stood a human-shaped ice sculpture. There were no details on the surface, only the head of the ice sculpture shone with a faint red light.
Seeing this scene, Wang Xiao suddenly felt that it was sowhat familiar.
...
“This is…”
Wang Xiao thought for a mont before his expression suddenly changed. “This is Andu? He’s not dead yet?!”
“He can’t die.”
Chen Jinrong looked at the ice sculpture in the room and said indifferently, “At least not yet.”
