Chapter 30 I Come From the Right Time
"People from the Legion?"
Dongzhi's gaze swept over the crowd before her, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
When he sensed someone approaching from outside using his thermal vision, he thought it was reinforcements from the Blackrock Society, but it turned out to be members of the Legion.
Moreover, judging from the color of their uniforms, these people are not ordinary legion soldiers or special operations team members, but rather people from the intelligence agency.
The Intelligence Bureau, the most core and mysterious organization within the Legion system, is directly responsible to the Supreme Command. Its investigation teams stationed in various base cities are at the same level as the local branches and wield multiple powers, including surveillance, investigation, and arrest, making them highly influential.
They internally purge traitors and corrupt elements, externally monitor all non-official professional organizations, and secretly carry out tasks such as intelligence gathering, infiltration, and targeted elimination. They are always extremely secretive and rarely appear in public.
I never expected to run into people from the intelligence agency here on the winter solstice.
Are they after Blackrock's weapons factory, or do they have other motives?
The scrutinizing gaze of the Winter Solstice sent a chill down the spines of the intelligence officers, and many instinctively gripped their weapons, adopting a defensive posture.
It's no wonder they were so nervous; the situation inside the factory was terrifying. Faced with such a powerful figure whose strength was unfathomable and whose mental state seemed somewhat precarious, no one could remain calm.
Noticing the change in everyone's expressions, Dongzhi smiled gently.
"Sorry, I startled you."
He slightly raised his hand, palm facing upwards.
The next second, the thick blood inside the factory, which had not yet dried, seemed to be drawn by an invisible force, wriggling rapidly as if it had a life of its own, and converging towards the door along the grooves in the ground.
The crimson blood waves rolled and compressed, and in just three or four seconds, the blood pool that originally covered the ground condensed into a fist-sized, crystal-clear rhomboid blood crystal, which gently floated into Dongzhi's palm.
Without the bloodstains covering the floor, the scene inside the factory, though still gruesome, had at least lost some of its hellish horror.
Seeing this incredible feat, the intelligence officers looked at each other in astonishment.
Tang Wangyan's eyes flickered slightly, but she quickly composed herself and said seriously, "Sir, my name is Tang Wangyan, captain of the Legion Intelligence Bureau's Northern District Investigation Team. May I ask how I should address you?"
"Winter Solstice, that's my name." Winter Solstice smiled and nodded. "I come from the heavens."
Timing?
The group racked their brains, but couldn't recall any unofficial professional organization with that name.
Tang Wangyan remained calm and tentatively asked, "Mr. Dongzhi, the one who previously wiped out several Black Stone Society strongholds..."
"You mean the Awakening of Insects?" Winter Solstice nodded frankly, her tone natural. "He is my companion."
Seeing Tang Wangyan's thoughtful expression, Dongzhi smiled slightly and changed the subject.
"I'm curious, why would people from the intelligence agency be here?"
His gaze swept over Old Li and the lean young man; their security uniforms stood out among the many star-blue military uniforms.
They've even planted spies; the intelligence agency has clearly been watching this weapons factory for quite some time now.
The intelligence about this weapons factory had already been recorded in the Legion's database. The intelligence agency couldn't possibly have been unaware of it, yet they still did this. It's highly likely that they weren't targeting the Blackstone Society.
Tang Wangyan hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to tell the truth.
"We came here to investigate the Awakening of Insects, but please rest assured, we have no ill intentions."
really.
Dongzhi understood in his heart, but he smiled noncommittally and waved his hand.
"My task for tonight is complete; it's time to leave."
Goodbye, everyone.
The moment the words left his mouth, a faint red glow emanated from Dongzhi's body, and his figure vanished from the spot.
The next second, he appeared out of thin air more than fifty meters away as if he had teleported.
After several flashes, the tall figure completely disappeared into the dark night.
Tang Wangyan simply watched quietly from beginning to end, without issuing any interception orders.
Since she didn't speak, the others naturally didn't dare to make any rash moves and could only watch helplessly as Dongzhi left.
When he still hadn't been seen by the winter solstice, Old Li couldn't help but ask, "Captain, do you think what he said is true?"
With the intelligence network of the intelligence agency, there is practically no unofficial professional organization in the entire Federation that they are unaware of, but this is the first time they have heard the name Tian Shi.
Either the organization was recently established and has not taken any action before, or Dongzhi is lying.
"Who knows?" Tang Wangyan shook her head, her gaze fixed on the direction where Dongzhi had disappeared. "But at least we can be sure he's not a member of the Holy Priests."
"Why?" the lean young man asked curiously.
Tang Wangyan glanced at him and sighed.
Old Li slapped the skinny young man on the back of the head, saying with exasperation, "Are you stupid? Can't you even understand this? If Dongzhi were a member of the Holy Shepherd Society, do you think we'd still have a chance to stand here and speak?"
The lean young man was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
To be able to take down so many professionals and gunmen without getting hurt, that person named Dongzhi must be at least a level 6, or even a level 7 professional.
For such a powerful being, dealing with them would indeed be a piece of cake.
If the other party is indeed a member of the Holy Priests, given the Holy Priests' hatred for the Intelligence Bureau, they will definitely not let them go so easily.
Old Li continued, "Moreover, judging from what just happened, Dongzhi clearly possesses skills such as manipulating blood, and the Holy Priests have never had a similar professional before... no, I should say I've never heard of a similar profession."
Upon hearing this, many intelligence agency members nodded subconsciously.
A profession that allows one to manipulate blood is simply unheard of.
To call him a spiritualist... well, as everyone knows, spiritualists have great limitations in their mental manipulation; they can only act on solid objects and cannot manipulate liquids, which does not match the abilities and characteristics displayed by Dongzhi.
Furthermore, the members of the Holy Priests are a bunch of 'thieves'; they cannot and do not have the ability to discover new professions.
The lean young man scratched his head, smiled sheepishly, and finally realized that he had asked a stupid question.
"So, the members of the Holy Priests active in the North District aren't mysterious... not Jingzhe, but someone else entirely?" the lean young man said.
Old Li nodded, and then he and the others turned their gazes to Tang Wangyan, waiting for her instructions.
Tang Wangyan pondered for a moment and said, "Continue to track down the Holy Shepherd Society. We must find the guys hiding in the North District."
She paused, then added, "Also, report the information about the winter solstice and the weather."
If Dongzhi is not lying and "Tianshi" is indeed a real organization, then its overall strength probably far exceeds that of the Black Stone Society, and it must be brought into the intelligence agency's key monitoring system as soon as possible.
Tang Wangyan looked up at the night sky, a hint of worry rising in her heart.
Chilian City was already chaotic enough, and now a new force, Tian Shi, has emerged, making it a truly turbulent time.
