Chapter 209: This Is Xia Country, Understand?
The Third-Generation Monolith Electromagnetic Cannons were charged for about 15 minutes.
Compared to ordinary electromagnetic cannons, the charging time was slightly longer.
Furthermore, the current situation could be said to be a race against time.
Right now, the nearest wave of experimental subjects was less than three kilometers away.
Given the speed of the experimental subjects, they would arrive in less than a minute.
Now the electromagnetic cannons were assembled and had just begun to charge.
Therefore, the entire Hero Company had to hold out for about 15 minutes for the electromagnetic cannons to be fully charged.
This would be quite a challenge for them.
Presently, everyone was on guard and closely observed the surroundings.
Zhao Xuanxuan and some others were arranged to keep a guard at the sides to prevent the experimental subjects from launching a sneak attack.
Just then, the conch-shaped magical artifact on Zhao Xuanxuan’s body stirred.
“Xuanxuan!” Qin Chuan’s voice resounded within her sea of consciousness.
Zhao Xuanxuan’s eyes lit up.
“Brother, why are you looking for me today?” Zhao Xuanxuan was both surprised and happy.
Qin Chuan snorted, “You still have the cheek to ask that? Don’t you have any idea?”
Zhao Xuanxuan wore a bewildered look. “Brother, I don’t understand what you’re saying!”
“Did you secretly say bad things about me behind my back?”
“Me? Did I?” Zhao Xuanxuan was instantly enlightened. She thought of the conversation with the two girls in the back row on their way here and felt a little guilty.
Qin Chuan didn’t wish to say anything more, so he changed the topic.
“Xuanxuan, how are things going in the Dai State?” Qin Chuan asked.
“We’re progressing quite smoothly. Now, we’re preparing to set up a stronghold in the oasis.”
“That’s good. After you have a stronghold, you guys won’t have to wander around the desert anymore.”
Zhao Xuanxuan suddenly thought of something and said, “Brother, we encountered mutated experimental subjects this morning. My companions were in danger, so I made a move.
“Is that okay? ”
Qin Chuan pondered for a moment before replying, “The government already knows about our cultivation.”
Zhao Xuanxuan’s expression changed as she asked worriedly, “Then… then is everything alright? What’s the government’s attitude?”
Qin Chuan replied, “It’s fine. They have tacitly approved the existence of cultivation, so you don’t have to worry too much in the future.”
Hearing this, Zhao Xuanxuan sighed in relief inwardly.
Qin Chuan spoke again, “Also, are Huang Huang and the Bamboo Spirit obedient? Did they cause any trouble? You should know that these two are especially playful.”
“They’re quite obedient and have always been protecting us.”
Qin Chuan couldn’t help but feel a little surprised. These two fellows had probably settled down after encountering people of the opposite sex.
At this time, Zhao Xuanxuan suddenly asked, “Brother, how’s the Martial Arts Conference going? Professor Wang and the rest should be unmatched, right?”
“That’s hard to say.”
Zhao Xuanxuan was surprised and asked curiously, “Professor Wang and the others are cultivators, and they are also from the Combat specialization. Is there anyone in the secular world that can threaten them?”
Qin Chuan didn’t hide anything and replied honestly, “There’s only one threat, and it’s from the Yun Country.
“I think they are genetically modified people with monster genes.”
Monster genes?
Zhao Xuanxuan asked doubtfully, “Brother, are you talking about the experimental subjects?”
“I guess so! But those here at the Martial Arts Conference are considered successful. They’re still different from the experimental subjects outside.”
Successful?
Zhao Xuanxuan fell into deep thought.
Ever since the experimental subjects’ brought chaos to the world, she had witnessed too many deaths.
Especially children.
They hid in cellars or underground sewers. After they were rescued, their parents were no longer around, and they would cry and clamor for their parents.
She had seen too many of such scenes.
If not for the madness of those people from the Yun Country, this sort of thing could have been completely avoided.
Now, the genetic modification of humans with monster genes by Yun Country has been successful. Human desires were endless. They definitely won’t stop and continue with their research.
Zhao Xuanxuan’s expression darkened as she communicated with Qin Chuan about her worries and thoughts.
“Xuanxuan, don’t worry. I might have to go to Yun Country in two days.
“If they continue their research, I will definitely stop them.” Qin Chuan promised.
At this moment, Zhao Xuanxuan heard a loud commotion. The experimental subjects had arrived.
“Brother, I’m going into battle. That’s all for now.” Zhao Xuanxuan said hastily.
“Alright, be careful.”
“Mm!”
Just like that, the two ended the call.
…
At the Martial Arts Conference.
Qin Chuan stood up, exchanged a few words with the Patriarchs, and then left.
Using his divine consciousness, he found the Disaster team.
The members of Disaster were extremely shocked by Qin Chuan’s arrival.
They had naturally heard of Qin Chuan before.
For this reason, they became especially vigilant.
Qin Chuan had a smile on his face, but he didn’t release his aura. He spoke in a clear voice, “Don’t be nervous, I don’t have any ill intentions.”
He spoke in the Yun Country language.
Picking up a language was extremely easy for him now.
Disaster’s trio carefully sized up Qin Chuan. Himura Kenshin and the black-robed person were not good at communicating, so they could only let Daimon Kogoro speak.
Daimon Kogoro squinted his eyes and bowed slightly. “Sir Qin Chuan, we have heard of you. May I know why you are looking for us?”
Qin Chuan directly replied, “I’m here for you.”
“For me?” Daimon Kogoro opened his eyes slightly. He felt very surprised.
“Do you have time?” Qin Chuan asked.
“I…” Daimon Kogoro looked confused. He thought for a while and asked, “How long do you need? ”
“It won’t be long!” Qin Chuan did not specify the duration.
“This…” Daimon Kogoro hesitated.
He bowed his head and looked at Himura Kenshin.
Himura Kenshin understood Daimon Kogoro’s meaning.
He looked at Qin Chuan and said, “Speak in our presence!”
Qin Chuan smiled. “I’m afraid that’s not possible!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the air became silent.
Qin Chuan had a smile on his face and didn’t release any aura. He was in a very ordinary state.
Even so, he exuded an intense sense of oppression standing there.
Himura Kenshin was a proud person. Other than seniors of the Sword Dao, he would never bow down to outsiders.
He stared straight at Qin Chuan with no fear at all.
Sensing the arrogance radiating from Himura Kenshin, Qin Chuan chuckled. “I admit that compared to some people, you are indeed considered a genius.
“But in my eyes, you are nothing.
“Also, let me remind you that this is Xia Country.
“Xia Country is a country of etiquette. It should teach you how to respect your elders.”
With that, a powerful force enveloped Himura Kenshin.
Himura Kenshin froze. It was as if he was in a vast universe, and in this universe, a pair of huge and deep eyes were staring at him.
In front of this pair of eyes, he felt like an insignificant speck of dust… No, he might not even be a speck of dust.
He thought back to what Qin Chuan had said, “You are nothing.”
Himura Kenshin felt a jolt in his soul. He couldn’t help but bend and bow deeply to Qin Chuan.
When Qin Chuan saw this, he smiled and said coolly, “Let me give you a piece of advice. Those who know when to yield and when not to will remain undefeated.”
Himura Kenshin lowered his head. These words gradually became louder in his ears and were deeply ingrained into his bones.
Then, Qin Chuan glanced at Daimon Kogoro with a smile on his face as he asked, “Are you done considering?”
Daimon Kogoro nodded and immediately said, “Yes!”
“Alright, come with me!”
