Chapter 255: [208] Using a knife as a sword to slash your future and cut you into a divine path (New Year’s plea for votes)_1
 

[Congratulations on obtaining Universal Extraordinary Gene Fragments x1]

Pei Jinye slowly raised his head.

“So…”

“I’ve collected three Extraordinary Gene Fragments.”

[Would you like to synthesize Extraordinary Genes?]

Pei Jinye raised his eyebrows.

“I choose to synthesize Extraordinary Genes related to eternal life.”

However, the attribute panel had no reaction.

Pei Jinye was not surprised.

“As expected, this ethereal Extraordinary… With my current level, I simply cannot condense it.”

“Synthesize life-related Extraordinary Genes.”

Ineffective.

“Synthesize…”

Ineffective.

Pei Jinye gave up.

So now he could only choose from the talents he already possessed to find which Universal Gene could be synthesized.

He might as well keep it for now, to see who would be the most suitable candidate for upgrading to the Second Rank later.

That same night.

Feng Jiao appeared in the back mountains with her prey.

“Successfully accomplished, this time I captured two targets from the Psychic Network System.”

The suitcase was taken away silently.

Feng Jiao did not dare to raise her head, kneeling under the long steps in the night.

…

[New Extraordinary Gene 1: Psychic·Poison Chain]

[New Extraordinary Ability: Quick Access (Your access can leave a trail of network poison)]

[New skill…]

[New Extraordinary Gene 2: Psychic·Network Mirror]

[New Extraordinary Ability: Mirror (In the Virtual World, you can set up mirrors making it hard for anyone to track your whereabouts quickly)]

[New skill…]

Pei Jinye slowly opened his eyes.

The absorption of two Extraordinary Psychic Class targets had cost him a full 8 points of spiritual power, causing his current spiritual power to drop from 40 to 34 points.

But he wasn’t the least bit distressed.

He finally possessed the ability to infiltrate.

Next, it was time to test the effect of this Poison Chain.

…

With the gift of Cold Jade, Feng Jiao got up gratefully and left.

The night flowed like water, covering the entirety of Da Peng City.

…

The next morning.

As soon as Pei Jinye arrived at the base, he sensed something was off with the atmosphere inside.

“Jinye, you’re here,” Brother Bi said with difficulty.

“What’s wrong?” he asked.

Brother Bi sighed, feeling a bit stifled.

Zhou Ye, understanding, said, “Brother Qiu might not make it.”

Pei Jinye was stunned for a moment, “Wasn’t he fine yesterday? What mission?”

Zhou Ye sighed and instinctively reached for a cigarette, “Just the regular night patrol task last night. They were supposed to return, but they ran into a group fighting. No idea who they were, but their swordsmanship was powerful—they didn’t even consider our Investigation Team. Brother Qiu’s group was basically…”

He struggled to continue, visibly upset as he pulled out a cigarette.

Brother Bi signaled, “Let’s go, we should see Old Qiu for the last time.”

In the hospital.

Old Qiu’s face looked like it had been scorched by flames, unrecognizable from his usual appearance.

Old Qiu’s wife was crying breathlessly.

“It’s heartbreaking to see, sigh,” Zhou Ye said with a sigh.

Pei Jinye followed silently, his gaze contemplative… Swordsman, burning.

After leaving Qiu Hezi’s ward.

Pei Jinye ran into Lin Xiawei.

“Senior Sister.”

“Have you seen him?” Lin Xiawei was still characteristically calm.

“I’ve seen him,” Pei Jinye looked up, “Senior Sister, do you know who the killer is?”

Lin Xiawei looked at him, staying calm for a moment, “In ten minutes, I will request Xing Tian privileges, and then I will give you a response.”

“Thank you, Senior Sister,” Pei Jinye nodded slightly.

Lin Xiawei watched him silently, then nodded lightly, leading her team into Qiu Hezi’s ward.

When Pei Jinye descended the stairs, Brother Bi and Zhou Ye were already in the car, both looking downcast enveloped in their own clouds of smoke.

The car door opened.

Pei Jinye got in the car, “Brother Bi, let’s go to Heaven God International.”

Brother Bi and Zhou Ye looked back at him.

Zhou Ye was puzzled, “Is there a mission?”

“Brother Qiu’s injuries made me think of someone. Let’s go take a look; maybe I’m overthinking,” Pei Jinye didn’t elaborate.

Without any further discussion, Brother Bi started the car and drove directly towards Heaven God International.

…

“Who are you guys, do you have an appointment? You can’t enter without an appointment! Stop there!”

The security at Heaven God International attempted to block them, but before Zhou Ye could continue to negotiate politely, Pei Jinye pulled him aside and kicked the feigning security guard out of the way.

“Investigation Team enforcement, irrelevant people get lost!”

The others stopped in their tracks, not daring to provoke such a secretive agency.

Fortunately, senior management arrived just in time.

Pei Jinye didn’t waste words, “Bring out Lin Ye, we need to ask him some questions.”

“May I ask about what?” The middle-aged man seemed intent on playing dumb, unwilling to cooperate.

Pei Jinye punched him directly in the abdomen, almost making him vomit his breakfast.

Zhou Ye timely went to the server room and disabled all surveillance.

“How can you hit people!” Someone indignantly spoke up, but as soon as they finished speaking, they were met with Pei Jinye’s gun pointed at them, “Get lost.”

The man’s face turned pale, shocked at how brazen Pei Jinye could be. He didn’t dare to utter another word and retreated back into the crowd.

Pei Jinye pressed the gun barrel to the middle-aged man’s mouth, “Can you understand me now? Bring out Lin Ye.”

“General Lin, he… isn’t here,” the middle-aged man’s face started to turn pale.

“Then call him and have him come over,” Pei Jinye said calmly.

“This…”

The middle-aged man hesitated, only to be prodded on the face by the gun barrel.
