“And what?” Mo Fei asked eagerly, his eyes wide.

Li Fei scratched his head and said hesitantly, “I know what I’m going to say is hard to believe but it was what I truly felt. When I came up to notify you, I also felt that I wasn’t alone in the elevator.”

“Are you telling me a ghost story? This is not funny at all.”

Mo Fei glared at him intensely, feeling very irritated. Li Fei’s face was flushed and he felt very awkward.

“Go, put this matter aside for now. We’ll talk about it later.”

Shen Moru patted Mo Fei’s shoulder heavily and headed out.

Mo Fei looked at Li Fei and the others and asked belatedly, “What about them?”

The expressions on Li Fei and the other two people’s faces changed dramatically. They knew they were the biggest suspects and this made them very sullen.

However, Shen Moru shook his head and said, “I’ve checked the surveillance closely. When Li Fei and Zheng Biao left the interrogation room, the suspect was still alive. By the time Fu Bin realized something was wrong and went in, the suspect was already dead. This matter should have nothing to do with them.”

Mo Fei’s eyes lit up and he glanced around. He started to speak then closed his mouth and followed Shen Moru into the elevator without a sound.

Li Fei and the other two let out a breath as if a heavy weight had been lifted from their shoulders. But remembering that someone had managed to kill the suspect without a single sound, they felt their blood run cold.

“Chief, did you find something?” Mo Fei asked eagerly the moment they entered the elevator.

Shen Moru looked around and waved his hand. It was not until they had returned to Mo Fei’s office and he had taken out a black machine and had swept every corner of the office did he open his mouth and say, “It’s not that I found something, rather, it’s that I remembered some things.”

“What exactly did you remember? Chief, you’re killing me here, stop milking it, alright?”

Mo Fei urged impatiently.

“Mo Fei, do you know where I went after I left Dragon Soul?” Shen Moru suddenly changed the subject and asked with a serious expression.

Mo Fei started and said, “Weren’t you put into punished by being put into detention to reflect on your mistakes?”

Shen Moru laughed bitterly, “According to the regulations, I shouldn’t be telling you this but since their claws have already reached into the Ninghai national security bureau, I won’t hide it from you. However, you must promise to never reveal any of this.”

Seeing Mo Fei’s solemn nod, Shen Moru stretched out his hand and accepted the cigarette Mo Fei handed him and lit up. Furrowing his brows tightly, he revealed an astonishing secret. “Everyone thought that I was shut up in the family ancestral hall to reflect on my mistakes after my impulsive action back then. But at that time, I was not with the Shen Family, instead, I was sent by the organization to a secret base and went through a hellishly strict training regime. I was in that place for a full three years. After three years, I came out and joined a secret organization in our country. However, I cannot tell you the name of this organization, this is a military secret of the highest level. It won’t do you any good to know.”

Mo Fei’s expression was shocked but he nodded with understanding. He had always protested the injustice of Shen Moru’s transfer from Dragon Soul back then. Who would have thought that it would contain such a shocking secret?

Shen Moru took a deep drag on the cigarette. Amidst the lingering smoke, his expression carried a trace of heaviness. “This organization was specially formed to investigate a mysterious outside force. This mysterious force is very powerful and has astounding wealth and human power, furthermore, they also have black technology that we are unable to understand.”

“Black technology? The black technology mentioned in novels that surpass the level of technology in present society?”

Mo Fei felt like he was listening to a fantasy. If he didn’t understand Shen Moru, he would certainly not believe the nonsense he was spouting.

“Perhaps using black technology as a descriptor is not very precise. Strictly speaking, this is an organization with fanatical beliefs. They refer to themselves as descendants of the god that created the world and firmly believe that humankind has the potential for endless evolution. Once we evolve to a certain point, we will become gods. They are an organization that devotes their efforts to mapping the human genome and that has the goal causing gene mutation to obtain supernatural abilities. They have gathered a large number of the best scientists and doctors in the world and have been capturing elites from each country in a frenzy to use in live experiments. More horrifyingly, it is said that they even mix human DNA with animal DNA in an attempt to create an army with supernatural powers to take over this world. They call it the god creation plan.”

Shen Moru’s expression was very solemn as he spoke each word haltingly.

“What? Are they crazy? This is anti-humankind and anti-society, will those countries that consider themselves policemen of the world not do anything about it?”

Mo Fei’s expression changed and he abruptly stood up. For him, this news had been too great a blow.

“Shh, keep your voice down!” Shen Moru scolded sternly.

Mo Fei quickly covered his mouth to show that he knew, only then did Shen Moru continue speaking. “No one knows when Descendants of God was formed and who formed it. The organization I am part of was still investigating secretly but found nothing. The existence of the Descendants of God is more dangerous than other terrorist groups. It has already seriously threatened the safety of all the countries and Mi is not an exception. It could be said that they have become public enemy number one. In fact, Mi noticed the existence of this organization many years ago and secretly formed the “God Punishing Alliance” with a few powerful countries. They even voluntarily made contact with our country and invited us to join this alliance. However, the Descendants of God continued to thrive outside our boundaries and almost never set foot in Shenzhou, thus, our country refused to make clear our stance. The Mi government probably realized that we didn’t want to be involved and so settled for the next best thing. They made the request to share resources and our country agreed.”

Shen Moru pulled deeply on the cigarette, his forehead creasing together. “And it was because of this sharing of resources that we finally understood, from the intelligence reports from Mi, the danger the Descendants of God posed. Once their research reached fruition, it would mean disaster for the entire world, and thus the organization I belong to was born. But as we refused to join the God Punishing Alliance, we could only investigate alone, however, we have not had much success. In our thinking, it would be a very difficult matter to obtain supernatural powers and so we didn’t think much of it but in recent years, our field operatives and some elite soldiers have disappeared in succession. Only now have we realized that the Descendants of God have already begun their attack on Shenzhou.”

Mo Fei stared dumbfounded. He swallowed with difficulty and said, “You…you’re saying that our field operatives and those soldiers didn’t die, rather, they’ve been taken by Descendants of God to use in experiments?”

Shen Moru nodded seriously. “Actually, the Descendants of God started taking actions many years ago but because there were very few disappearances and very few clues left behind, we all thought they were just accidents. But over the years, there has been a major uptick in the number of field operatives and special forces soldiers that have disappeared. Only then did we realize something was not right and began to investigate their whereabouts. Although we cannot confirm that the Descendants of God did it, given the intelligence reports provided by the God Punishing Alliance, they are the most suspicious.”

“Damn, these people are truly crazy. How dare they capture our people? If I get my hands on them, I’m going to skin them alive.”

Mo Fei clenched his fist tightly and his face twisted in anger. Thinking of the field operative that had disappeared recently, he wished he could capture those evil bastards right now and teach them a lesson.

Shen Moru’s gaze was abstruse and he slowly said, “Did you think I suddenly came to Ninghai just for a few mercenaries? I’m here because I wanted to follow the vampire mercenaries to the people directing them but reality has proven that the vampires are just a pawn of the Descendants of God and so this path has reached a dead end. Even if I continue to dig deeper, I would only be able to unearth a few scapegoats. The death of the shooter today made me realize that this matter is definitely not as straightforward as it appears. If I haven’t guessed wrong, Monkey must have some incredible proof in his hands, and this is why the shooter was allowed to kill openly in the street and why even a supernatural of the Descendent of Gods was mobilized to silence the shooter.”

Mo Fei leaped up as if he had been pinched by a scorpion. Color draining from his face in shock, he said, “You’re saying that the shooter was killed by a supernatural?”

“What else? What kind of person could follow an official of the national security bureau into an underground interrogation room and kill someone without a sound and then quietly follow Li Fei out? Even the cameras were unable to capture his appearance. According to the newest intelligence report from Mi, the latest successful supernatural subject of the Descendants of God’s experiments has the power of camouflage. They are able to hide from human eyes and cameras. Of course, you don’t need to be nervous, no supernatural ability is perfect and flawless. No matter how they hide, the warmth of their bodies still exist and will not be able to hide from a thermal detector.”

Shen Moru spoke confidently. How would he feel if he knew that Ding Ning’s organism emulating skin could hide from thermal detectors?

Mo Fei tugged ruthlessly on his hair and groaned. “Goddamn, this world is too crazy. Is the future of humankind filled with supermen flying through the air, who wear their underwear on the outside?”

“Haha, don’t worry so much. The most important matter at hand is to adjust the defense system and add a thermal alarm system then what happened today will not happen again.”

Shen Moru could only pat his shoulder in comfort. He knew that what he had said today far surpassed Mo Fei’s mental limits.

“Alright. But if Monkey held such important evidence in his hands, didn’t Liu Junwei, that idiot, sever this line of investigation?”

Mo Fei asked with gritted teeth, suddenly remembering Monkey.

“It’s all up to fate now. Xiao Nuo and that legendary doctor have already taken him to Diannan. Hopefully, they can save him.”

Shen Moru furrowed his brows, an intelligent light flashing through his eyes. “I am very curious as to what evidence Monkey holds to make the Descendants of God so frantic. Furthermore, they are very well hidden in Ninghai, I suspect they have a spy here.”

“A spy? I despise spies. Damn! The Descendants of God are so fanatical yet there are people in Shenzhou who would spy for them.”

Mo Fei spoke through gritted teeth. He wished he could pluck out the spy and chop them into pieces.

Looking at Shenzhou’s bloody history, oftentimes, the most hated were not the invaders, rather, it was the traitors who willingly served the invaders.

Shen Moru nodded with a serious expression. Resolutely and decisively, he said, “I only suspect but the likelihood is very high. As they say, only by knowing oneself and one’s enemy can one be indefatigable? The harm one spy could cause is far more terrifying than that of an army thus we must quickly find this spy and make an example of them. You will start investigating immediately. No matter who this implicates, even if its god above, you cannot let them get away with it.”

“Yes, Chief. I’ll immediately have people carefully investigate everyone Monkey has had contact with during this period. I promise to even find out what underwear eight generations of these people’s family wore.”

Mo Fei stood and put out his cigarette in the ashtray and made a solemn vow.

Suddenly remembering something, he asked worriedly, “Chief, since Monkey’s secret is so important, will the doctor and Xiao Nuo be in danger?”
