Chapter 781 The Forbidden Ore Mine
Chapter 781 The Forbidden Ore Mine
“I have a friend who happens to be an employee in the administration department.”
"The night before last, I specifically asked him to drink, hoping to get some information out of him."
"He revealed this to me unintentionally after getting drunk."
"Actually, in addition to the original four raw stone mines, the Brotherhood has a fifth raw stone mine!"
"But due to special reasons, this raw stone mine was closed, so not many people know about it."
Logically speaking, the raw stone mine is not exactly top secret information.
If Wang Zhan doesn't want outsiders to know, then there's no need to expose the existence of the other four raw stone mines.
But only the fifth raw stone mine was kept under wraps.
There is only one possibility: this raw stone mine holds a secret that no one knows.
As expected, Qu Fanbin's next words gave Su Chen a real jolt!
"After discovering the fifth raw stone mine, Wang Zhan dispatched four legions to wipe out the monster horde inside the cave."
"Then the administrative office took over and began preliminary exploration of the quarry and preparations for mining."
“My friends are among them.”
"However, during the exploration, it was discovered that at the deepest part of the raw stone mine, there was another underground passage leading to the depths of the earth."
"Several evolved beings and superhumans didn't take this passage seriously and rashly rushed in."
"Then, not long after, their screams came from inside."
"My friends were terrified and didn't dare go inside again. They immediately reported it to their superiors."
"Subsequently, the administration office sent many more people over to check the situation."
"In the end, even the chairman Wang Zhan, as well as Zhou Meng, Pan Mao, and others, personally rushed to the scene."
"My friend happened to be nearby when they were talking and clearly heard the words 'gene lock reagent'!"
"Later on, Wang Zhan ordered the administrative staff to withdraw from the raw stone mine."
"My friend doesn't know what happened next."
"But since then, the ore mines have been closed."
"Even within the Brotherhood, there is no information about that raw stone mine."
"And from then on, the guild leader Wang Zhan and others, who were originally at the E+ level, gradually evolved to the D level!"
Qu Fanbin recounted everything he had learned in one go.
He poured himself another glass of water and drank it all in one gulp.
"Brother Su, this is all the information I could find out!"
"You did a great job."
Su Chen gave a compliment and then got up and went into the bedroom.
When I came out again, I was carrying a backpack.
"Here, this is what you deserve."
Qu Fanbin took the backpack, opened it, and immediately his face lit up with joy.
It contains quite a few raw stones; a rough estimate puts it at around fifty!
"Thank you, Brother Su!"
"You're welcome, we agreed on this beforehand."
Su Chen smiled and said slowly,
"Next, continue to gather intelligence and try to find out more information about that raw stone mine."
"Ok, no problem!"
Qu Fanbin packed his backpack and readily agreed.
After he left, Su Chen found paper and pen and wrote down the information he had just obtained.
Looking at the contents above, he fell into thought.
Some things don't come out of thin air.
Just as Qu Fanbin said, Wang Zhan obtained the inheritance of an immortal.
Even if it's not a legacy from immortals, it should be something similar.
This is how the Brotherhood acquired the artifact maker and the gene lock reagent.
As for that raw stone mine, it should also be closely related to the gene lock reagent.
It is highly likely that the formula for the gene-locking reagent is hidden beneath the raw stone ore!
Su Chen planned to go and take a look at that raw stone mine.
The problem is that the raw stone mine has been shut down.
Not many people within the fraternity knew about it.
Unless we arrest Qu Fanbin's friend and interrogate him severely!
After thinking it over, Su Chen decided not to act rashly for the time being.
Let's wait and see if Qu Fanbin can bring us any more unexpected surprises!
So Su Chen waited another day.
But it's clear that Qu Fanbin's abilities are limited.
A day later, he sheepishly approached Su Chen, meaning he had contacted many more friends.
But no further information was obtained regarding the gene-locking reagent.
Just as Su Chen was about to ask Qu Fanbin about his friend in the administration department, Wang Zhan's subordinates suddenly found him.
……
"Su Chen, Deputy Inspector General Su, right?"
Two burly men exuding a dangerous aura stood outside the door, looking at Su Chen with a probing gaze.
"Yes, it's me."
Su Chen nodded in agreement, but secretly became more vigilant.
Fortunately, the other party did not do anything unusual.
“We are the chairman’s subordinates. The chairman asked us to inform Deputy Inspector General Su that you should go to his office first thing tomorrow morning. He has a task for you.”
"understood."
Watching the other person leave, Su Chen frowned slightly.
When Wang Zhan presented the champion's award, he mentioned that he would take Su Chen on a mission.
I didn't expect it to come so quickly!
Su Chen had no choice but to postpone the matter of Qu Fanbin's friend for the time being.
The next morning, as requested by Wang Zhan, Su Chen went to his office.
Several people were already waiting outside the office.
Su Chen glanced at them and found that they were all the top ten members who remained in this elite selection competition.
Among them, he also discovered Zhang San, who had previously confronted him.
Upon seeing Su Chen, Zhang San quickly greeted him with a smile.
Su Chen nodded in response.
He and Zhang San and the others waited patiently on the bench outside.
Before long, the top ten evolved individuals and top ten superhumans selected from the elite selection competition had arrived.
Just then, Wang Zhan arrived at the office with a team of his men.
He opened the office door and welcomed everyone inside.
Good morning, everyone.
Wang Zhan greeted everyone with a smile and said slowly,
"Actually, the reason I called you all here today is because the organization has a task that you need to carry out."
"Just recently, our organization discovered another raw stone mine."
"As you all probably know, there are a large number of monsters in the raw stone mine."
"The reason we've gathered everyone here today is to deal with the monsters in the mine and prepare for the next phase of mining."
"All members who participate in this mission will receive a large amount of Primogems upon completion."
"Furthermore, I and several other vice presidents will accompany you to ensure your safety!"
"You can rest assured!"
"Is there anyone who doesn't want to go?"
All the elites present had already joined the Brotherhood.
How could they refuse a task personally assigned by the chairman?
Not to mention, this mission comes with generous rewards, and Wang Zhan and others will be traveling with them.
Therefore, no one raised any objections!
Only Su Chen, sitting to the side, had a cold smile on his lips!
