This is really not mechanical ascension-Chapter 49 - E-class gene seed Feng Ke acts

Although he did not recognize them, he responded to each one.

After waiting for another fifteen minutes or so, the room was nearly full; Li Ming estimated that there were close to a hundred people present, all F-class life forms, not all from the security department.

The scene was noisy, with many acquaintances greeting each other.

Yang Peng was sitting next to him, his expression serene.

Li Ming remarked, “The number of F-class life forms in the department exceeds my imagination.”

“There are still many who haven’t come.

After all these years, there is indeed an accumulation,” Yang Peng said thoughtfully, then hesitated before adding quietly, “A friend from internal affairs said that yesterday’s incident only counts as one F-class event.”

“Hm?” Li Ming frowned.

“In theory, the death of three F-class life forms could be counted as three F-class events, which is usually how it’s done,” Yang Peng expressed helplessly, and it was clear that this time, Chief Feng Ke had thrown a wrench in the works.

Li Ming responded indifferently, “I see.”

“Ladies and gentlemen…” The voice amplified by the speakers echoed through the conference hall.

The hubbub gradually subsided as Qin Xiao stepped onto the stage, his silver hair combed back, wearing a warm smile.

“You are all the elite of our City Guard, the backbone…” He looked around the room, his face filled with earnestness: “Behind closed doors, we’re all family, so I won’t say much more than that.”

“Our Silver Grey Star may be remote and backward, but this land has also nurtured and fostered me.

Now, a group of Bounty Hunters dare to disturb the peace of this city.”

“Why do they dare to do this, why don’t they dare go to Capital Star?

Because they think we can’t stand against them, that we cannot rebel…”

“So, what should we do?

What we need to do is to kill them off!”

Qin Xiao spoke with impassioned vigor, even bluntly, rousing people’s emotions to the utmost.

At least Yang Peng next to him, though his expression did not change, had silently clenched his fists.

“…Of course, these Bounty Hunters live on the edge of the knife, and the risk involved in this operation is extremely high.

However, I can assure you, you won’t have to worry about what comes after.”

“And this is just the beginning; I never shortchange my own people.” Qin Xiao’s tone shifted, and then, behind him on the giant screen, four spinning metal tubes appeared, along with captions–

[Hunting Wind Eagle Gene Seed]

[Golden Ring Nickel-toothed Beast Gene Seed]

[Purple Lightning Bear Gene Seed]

[Gravel Rhinoceros Gene Seed]

“E-class Gene Seeds!” Qin Xiao declared fervently: “These are the gene seeds provided by the Silver Grey City Management Committee, not included in this year’s allocation.

Whoever contributes the most, whoever is at the forefront, these will belong to them!”

Motivation, responsibility, rewards, all laid out in sequence, right before their eyes.

Many in the room even stood up, as if a surge of hot blood was pulsing in their chests, eager to find the Bounty Hunters and fight them in three hundred rounds.

“The Committee really went all out this time, these gene seeds aren’t the ones you find everywhere, they’re all elemental level,” Yang Peng sighed.

At the E level, the vast majority of gene seeds still do not contain Elemental Power.

The next step was group formation, with so many people, for ease of command, they were divided into 10 groups, each with about 9-10 people.

As it happened, both he and Yang Peng were assigned to Group 7, with Yang Peng as the leader, since his apparent strength was the strongest, having developed his gene seed to 100%, and he was just waiting for the E-level gene seed to be delivered.

There was still a series of things to be done, logistics coordination, intelligence handover, and even the establishment of a special logistics command center.

Li Ming wasn’t interested in these, he said if there was a mission to inform him, then headed to the 65th floor, he’d been coveting the special training room for a long time.

However, in the meeting room, several figures surreptitiously watched him, and after seeing him leave, they exchanged glances and slowly filed out as well.

At this time of the day, there weren’t many people in the training room, and there were a few empty ones; after permission recognition, he entered one of them.

As he closed the door, the training room lit up, and the walls were all grey-white metal, with a virtual screen popping up next to the door.

The function of the special training room was far more extensive than he had imagined; it could adjust gravity, pressure, temperature, and more…

But there were limits.

“Maximum simulated electric current 1000V…” Li Ming chose 600V to test the waters.

Buzz!

An increased electric current surged from the floor, tingling and painful, warming his body gradually, a sensation he was all too familiar with.

He changed into his development two-piece suit, no, now it was a three-piece suit, including the newly acquired array armor, which enhanced his strength; detecting equipment’s ‘Potential Burst’ ability also required physical exertion.

Conditioning one’s body often made time slip away unnoticed; by the time the special training room shut down forcibly, it was already seven in the evening.

Li Ming stretched his limbs; with double the physical enhancement, he had great endurance, and even now, he wasn’t completely exhausted.

“Whew…

five hours, no idea how much I’ve improved.”

It wasn’t a good idea to pull out the gene-testing equipment here.

Drip–

The training room door opened, and Li Ming’s gaze flickered slightly.

Standing in front of the door were three figures, subtly blocking his escape route.

He glanced sideways, and all the other special training rooms were empty.

It wasn’t about waiting for a spot, it was an ambush…

“Brother Li Ming,” one of them said with a hypocritical smile, “a friend would like to meet you.”

“Head Feng Ke?” Li Ming uttered the three words, and the expressions of the three men changed slightly; they hadn’t expected Li Ming to guess it so quickly.

Wiping sweat with a towel, Li Ming appeared nonchalant, “What, you’re planning to tie me up and take me there?”

“You misunderstand, it’s an invitation,” the smile on his face grew thicker, “Head Feng Ke just wants to ask about the specifics, no ill intentions.

You’re a regular guard, officially recorded, no one can do anything to you, don’t worry.”

“Also, this comes from Minister Qin as well.”

With the Minster’s approval, this kind of pressure isn’t something an ordinary city guard could withstand.

“Minister Qin’s intent?” Li Ming mused and nodded, Qin Xiao was an old fox, the amiability of yesterday might just have been for show.

The men exchanged looks, somewhat triumphant; youth really was inexperienced, a little intimidation and he believed it.

“Since that’s the case, then follow us…” One of them stepped forward, but before he could finish his sentence, everything went dark, and then a ‘bang’—his body flew back at a high speed, crashing into the wall and falling to his knees on the ground.

He clutched his stomach, his face twisted in extreme pain.

As he opened his mouth to speak, blood spilled out before any words could.
