Chapter 40: The Undercurrent (I)

The well-trained maid nodded without saying a word, picked up the papers, and walked out.

Xichen Qinglan pondered for a moment, and suddenly said to the corner: "How long do you think this secret can be hidden?" ”

A faint voice came: "The most optimistic estimate will not be more than two years; If you're unlucky, maybe in just a few months, you'll have heard of the power of those giants in the imperial capital! ”

"Is there a way to stop it?"

"Your Highness, this is too difficult!" The voice sighed,

"There is no impermeable wall in the world, and from the time the child entered the fortress to the present, there have been many people who have come into contact with him! Although they didn't know much about it, if they summarized these bits and pieces, plus the details of that duel, as long as a qualified intermediate wise person analyzed and deduced, they could get a lot of useful information! ”

"Then ......" Xichen Qinglan frowned, and her face showed a calm color:

"What if we take special measures?"

The voice was silent for a moment, as if considering the feasibility of such a proposal, and only after a while, did it say, "Even if Your Excellency the Marshal is willing to fully cooperate and isolate all the people who have come into contact with that child, it is a little late now!" You know, those wealthy families have always had a very sensitive sense of smell, and these days, the information that can be transmitted should have been passed out! ”

"It's bad that we didn't take the people we rescued seriously! If the child's situation had been classified as a military secret above A+ level from the beginning, and corresponding measures had been taken, it would not have been so troublesome now! ”

A gust of wind swept up in the hall, and the delicate teacup in the hand of the goddess of war silently turned into a fine powder, which slowly slid down the dusty table top onto the white edelweiss carpet.

In the empty corner, a faint figure gradually appeared, it was a two-meter-tall, burly and majestic man like a mammoth, his eyes showed a strange golden-purple, thick and hard face, and he wore a light black hideous tattoo mask on the right half of his face, and his body was covered with thick dark blue light armor.

Compared to the large hall, he was nothing in size. But as soon as someone stares at him, there is a feeling that the entire space is filled with his figure!

This is a powerhouse with the strength of the Meteorite Realm.

"Your Highness, although it is no longer feasible to block the news, as long as you are here, those families will not dare to mess around, let alone ......" Dahan said calmly,

"The marshal will also be on your side, and it will not be a problem to ensure the safety of this child!"

Xichen Qinglan's face softened slightly: "Okay then!" Xiao Junling's safety, you have to pay more attention to it in the future, huh...... I will let Lan Ya rearrange his accommodation, if you don't worry outside, you will be here with me! And all the things he needs, give him all the things he needs! ”

"In addition, immediately contact the Imperial Capital Headquarters and send me a copy of all the information you can collect about spiritual abilities!"

"As you wish, Your Highness!" The big man nodded, and his figure faded in an instant.

Outside the gate of the residence, Zhou Meng had been waiting for a long time, with a faint look of anxiety on her pretty face.

It's not that she doesn't want to go in, it's just that a team of heavily armed high-level abilities are firmly clubbed there at the door, refusing to let her go no matter what she says, and she is so angry that she almost has a seizure on the spot. It was only in consideration of the importance of the matter that she could barely suppress the unhappiness in her heart and continue to wait patiently!

After a few moments, the door finally opened, and a well-behaved and beautiful girl walked out!

"How? Is the test over? Zhou Meng recognized her as the maid beside Xichen Qinglan, and hurriedly greeted her, asking as politely as possible.

The maid bowed and said with a smile: "It's over, Your Highness asked me to give this to you!" ”

As he spoke, he handed over the test report.

"That'...... What about Xiao Junling? Zhou Meng looked inside the door, found no trace of the boy, and asked again.

"According to His Highness's instructions, a place has been arranged for him to rest, if there is anything, you can go to him when he wakes up!" The maid replied.

"Alright! Sorry for you! Zhou Meng took the information, took out an emerald the size of a dragon's eye and quietly handed it to her, but was politely pushed away by the other party.

"I'm sorry, I can't help you with this, otherwise I won't be able to explain it to Your Highness." The maid shook her head.

She has been with the God of War for many years, what kind of big man has she not seen? She still has the judgment of which benefits can be received and which benefits must not be touched.

Zhou Meng sighed helplessly, and saw her enter the door, so she opened the document in her hand, and only after a rough look at two pages, her face changed slightly, and she quickly turned a few pages, and cold sweat was faintly oozing out of her beautiful sideburns.

Nervously looking left and right a few times, she stuffed the file into the space bracelet, then jumped on the hovering car next to her, started the car and walked away.

A few minutes later, she returned to her lodgings, barely catching her breath and rushing out again, followed by a murderous escort of Paranormal Abilities, who swarmed her around her and hurried to the heavily guarded hyperspace communications center in the center of the fortress.

Entered the door with his special authority, and then chose a fully enclosed communication room, temporarily opened an information transmission channel, and had a face-to-face communication with the head of the house.

While this would result in dizzyingly high communication costs, even beyond the maximum authority granted to her by the family, there were special circumstances that did not take care of it.

On the side of the imperial capital, Zhou Jiyuan, who had already rested, was urgently woken up from the bed by the servant, and rushed to the top-secret communication room with a gloomy face and disheveled.

But just a few minutes later, he was relieved by his great-granddaughter's decision and made a series of important instructions on the spot:

“…… From now on, your resource quota standard will be increased by two levels, and you can call on all the hidden forces of your family in the Northwest Attack Cluster! If necessary, you can ask ××, ××× and other generals for help...... What supplies do you need, if you don't have enough in your hands, you can use special authority to overdraft to the military logistics center first! ”

“…… In a word, as long as this matter is done well, you are the hero of the family! ”

The radiant Zhou Meng went out of the door, boarded the flying car and hurriedly left.

In the next two hours, she visited several military supply bases inside the fortress, and she immediately assigned her subordinates to urgently mobilize some of the varieties that were temporarily out of stock, and only after a long time of work did she return to her residence satisfied.

"Miss Zhou, you are really busy!" Just as she was about to enter the door, a polite voice suddenly sounded.

Zhou Meng turned his head to look, his face couldn't help sinking, and he said lukewarmly: "It turned out to be you?" ”

Not far away, Wu Jing, who was dressed up, walked over with a smile on her face.
