The Favored Son of Heaven

Chapter 573: Entering Pandora

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Waiting was supposed to be a very boring thing, but waiting in the Founding Society base was anything but.

Looking at the various collections of the Founding Society and multiple clip recordings of the Queen Bee’s subordinates in Pandora, Qin Fen lost track of time. He found that the Queen Bee’s subordinates’ strengths were much higher than he had estimated.

Chen Feiyu remained silent and was watching the part of the projection he was interested in. Even if they were just watching the projections from the side, they could still gain a lot of combat experience from the battles of Qilin and the rest.

Performing the so-called Integration of Brains… Qin Fen wasn’t assured enough to allow Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota to go through the operations by themselves. The Founding Society was a place where no ordinary person could understand.

Qin Fen watched a lot of clips and was studying the insect warriors’ fighting method. Although they also learned martial arts techniques from humans, they still preferred to use instinctive and beast-like fighting methods that were quick and direct.

“This…” Qin Fen looked up at the brain that was immersed in the nutrient solution and had been silent for a long time, wondering if it was doing scientific research. He suddenly realized a serious problem, which was that he didn’t know how to address the brain.

“You can call me Number One.” The brain started speaking again, and the few lights that were specified in managing its speech production were flashing continuously along with its speech, “Young man, do you have any questions?”

Qin Fen contemplated for a while, then lifted his finger to point at the constantly changing images on the projection screen, “I want to go there.”

“You want to go into Pandora?” The brain was surprised, “You have seen so many projections, are you not be well aware of the dangers?”

“You guys are doing the same, always sneaking people in for hunting.” Qin Fen held his chin with one hand, and his gaze did not leave the constantly changing projection screen.

In order to try and understand the various offspring born by the Queen Bee, as well as for their research on insect warriors, both Founding Societies would regularly sneak their men into Pandora for ambushes.

With the progress of time and the advancement of technology, the space tunnel on Earth was now completely in the hands of the Founding Society. They could easily open it whenever and wherever they liked. Plus, they could shut off these newly opened tunnels whenever they liked too. It was not like the initial tunnels and those naturally generated tunnels, which they had no control over at all.

It was precisely because of this technology that allowed them to open and close the connecting tunnels freely, the two Founding Society would enter the dimension to hunt and collect data and samples from time to time.

It was because of this reason that there were different mutant creatures on each planet. These mutated creatures then mated with the creatures on Earth, which produced more strange creatures, which were then taken back by the Founding Society for new research.

Number One was quiet for a short period of time, “Are you going there alone? What time do you want to leave?”

Qin Fen looked at the screen and looked at the time, “I think I might have more than one person? I will have to ask those people first.”

He dialed another holocall. Qin Fen switched directly to the conference mode this time, calling Yang Lie, Brooks, and the others.

With the development of technology, there were more functions now to the phones. Important calls were divided into different categories; categories such as ‘super important call’. Qin Fen’s phone number was stored under the category of ‘pick up no matter what’ in his friends’ phones.`

Everyone knew very well that Qin Fen didn’t like to call very much — it might be because of the hardships of the past — but because of this, whenever he called, they knew that it was something important.

Different ringtones woke everybody up from their seclusion. Xue Tian leaned against the wall and looked at Qin Fen lazily. His battle with Guanyin had obviously drained him. Even with his biochemical beast healing his physical injuries, it couldn’t make up for the strength depletion. In contrast to that, it would drain him even further to support the physical healing function.

Du Peng pressed his hand against the lower abdomen with a painful expression on his face. He stood up shakily from the ground with the support of the wall. Not far from him was Caesar with his arms crossed in front of his chest.

Everyone was staring at Qin Fen on the projection screen of their phones. They wanted to know why their friend who rarely called would take the initiative to look for them in a conference call today.

Under the gaze of everyone, Qin Fen directed the camera towards the projection screen made by the brain and said, “So this is the story, take a look at it.”

Number One seemed to like storytelling very much; it was unsure if this had to do with the fact that people rarely talked to it. Again, it went along with the replayed projection and told the same story it once told to Qin Fen to Yang Lie and others.

In a few hours, the projection summarized the events that happened over the years. Yang Lie and others who were watching were surprised. These things were way beyond ordinary people’s imagination. Even with their identities as descendants of prestigious families like Yang Lie, they didn’t know these kinds of things.

Qin Fen finally waited until Number One finished, and then pointed the camera at himself again, “I want to go in there.”

The several young pros in the conference call projection started showing interest in their excited eyes.

Be it on Saturn or in Pandora, it was the same and full of danger. The difference was just whether they were to fight with humans or mutated creatures.

Tagatha’s palm attack on that day had not only scared off Qin Fen, who was the strongest martial artist among the younger generation, it had also showcased to everyone on how strong Saturn’s apex-level masters’ strengths could be.

Because of the existence of Inferno, they didn’t have to face the great pressure of annihilation by Elysium. However, Yang Lie and the others all had a heart of martial artists wanting to perform better than their seniors. Killing was the best way to accumulate experience for improvement in strength, but it was also the most dangerous way, especially when they were on Saturn; it was not a wise choice to fight either Inferno or Elysium.

Yang Lie and the others were intelligent. They had realized that it was indeed extremely risky for them to enter Pandora. The powerful strength of Queen Bee was already hard to handle for a divine beast martial artist, let alone them.

However, this was indeed an extremely rare opportunity.

Just give up? Yang Lie and the others laughed. This is too good of an opportunity to be given up! The most important point was that each of Qin Fen’s team members had the super nano battle suit that was not ready for mass production.

“Wait for us! Don’t go in alone!” Yang Lie put on the suit hurriedly and said, “You are already too far ahead of us. We can’t afford to let you go even farther ahead!”

The conference call ended in an instant. The moment the call ended, everyone started moving fast. For each of the members in Qin Fen’s team, regardless of how greatly overtaken by Qin Fen they were in terms of the martial dao strength, they never stopped chasing him nor agreed to the idea that Qin Fen will always be the strongest among them.

“Attention, there are new aircraft appearing above the base…”

The mechanical voice sounded slowly through the loudspeaker. As Qin Fen was looking at the Saturn military aircraft from the projection screen, he heard Number One say, “Let them in.”

Not long after, two thick and cold doors opened slowly, and the chilled white gas oozed out of the door. Lin Liqiang waved his hand in front of his face and muttered as he entered the room, “Such a cold room in here, it’s really easy to get sick from this air-conditioned environment.”

“Both of you, welcome.” Number One wasn’t paying too much attention to the courtesy, “Can you start right away?”

Lin Liqiang shook his index finger, “No, no, I need to read the information again.”

Integration of Brains was not a small matter. Lin Liqiang had to pay great attention to it. He carefully revisited all kinds of data and whispered with Enzo Rota from time to time.

Another few hours had passed. It felt as if they had lost track of the time while inside this kind of special underground organization like the Founding Society. Time passed by without them even noticing it.

When the heavy iron door was opened again, a group of scientists in surgical gowns walked in. There was a mixture of excitement and envy flashing in their eyes as they looked at Lin Liqiang and Enzo Rota. Everyone here knew about the Integration of Brains, but not everyone had an opportunity like this one.

“These two are about to receive your assistance.” The Number One made a brief introduction, “Lin Liqiang, he’s a rising star in the biochemical beast research and development. Enzo Rota…”

“The one in pharmaceuticals?”

Although the scientists of the Founding Society were in the base all year round, they were no stranger to the information outside. The name Enzo Rota was quite rare, so the fact that he was standing beside Lin Liqiang and came here to undergo the Integration of Brains… he must be none other than the super genius rising star of the pharmaceuticals field!

“That’s right, it’s the two of them.” The confirmation from the Number One attracted respectful gazes from the scientists as they looked at the two of them. They were showing even greater respect to them than to Qin Fen, who was a strong martial artist.

In the world of science, not everyone who had powerful strength could gain the acknowledgment of scientists. The scientists who were focused on doing research were more willing to acknowledge those who worked in the field of scientific development. In particular, the young age of these two had reminded them of their past. They were still sticking to the back of their supervisors and were eagerly doing tedious yet unimportant tasks when they were at this age.

“I’ll ask again.” Lin Liqiang laid on the operating table that was floating above the ground, staring at the brain which was moved over by several scientists and placed in the nutrient solution, “Are you sure that this won’t affect my handsome appearance?”

Several scientists around Lin Liqiang had a cold sweat on their foreheads. It is worthwhile even if he’ll turn into an ugly man to have such an opportunity! This kid had asked this same question six times in the few minutes he’s been laying down on the operating table!
