Atlas of Heaven and Man.

Chapter 400 Inheritance
"Powerful active consciousnesses are the builders and participants of the World Ring. They can open the rift between the two worlds, allowing defense forces to enter the intersection of the two worlds to fight against the existence of the other side. Companies can also bring back lost objects and advance technology through research."

Meng Lai leaned down at this time, climbed the metal stairs and began to move down, saying, "Follow me."

Meng Shu came to the metal ladder on the other side and moved down carefully. After going down about three or four meters, her feet touched solid ground.

She found that the space here was much larger than what she had just seen above. At this moment, she heard a noise, and the lights suddenly turned on and extended all the way down along the tunnel below.

She saw there was an elevator parked here. After Meng Lai went over, he asked her to come in.

When she got inside and stood still, Meng Lai pulled up the guardrail, then gestured to the control console beside him and said, "Open the safety gate first, then pull the lever."

Meng Shu followed instructions and walked to the control console, pushed up the slide key of the safety gate, and then went to pull the lever. However, she found that she had no strength with one hand, so she used both hands to push it to the bottom. The elevator vibrated for a moment, and then slowly sank downwards with a loud noise.

Meng Lai continued, "Liying used to be a vassal of the government. When opening the door, it needed the help of the Dashun government, and every time it needed to be reviewed and approved.

Although the relics brought back from outside were kept in the company for research, they were actually the property of the Dashun government, not our own.

But if Liying can grow stronger, it will be able to freely enter and exit the intersection of the two worlds, and arrange fighters to find lost objects for us. The company will have greater prospects and development power.

This is a privilege only enjoyed by giants and large companies. We must find a way to squeeze into this group when we merge our borders. Only in this way can we have the ability to protect ourselves in the next world collision, rather than being casually abandoned or pushed out as victims. "

Because of the lights on both sides of the elevator, Meng Shu saw light and shadows crisscrossing across Meng Lai's face and body. She didn't know if she looked the same at the moment.

"This decision was actually a bit hasty, but it had to be made."

At this moment, a light was passing by and Meng Lai's voice came out from the darkness.

"Meng Huang has completely trusted and leaned towards that being. We cannot let him continue like this. Xiaoshu, you successfully resisted his attack, which proves that you are capable of being a good successor. In order not to give him too much reaction time, I immediately arranged this meeting.

In fact, I started planning to trap that being a long time ago, and all the conditions are in place, so it is possible to do so.

In my plan, I will first use Aunt Yu and the Sword Guards to consume its power, and then when it arrives here, I will use the ritual and Li Ying's power to finally capture and absorb it.

However, any plan is just a plan. After contacting it, I found that the existence that came this time was of a higher status than I had previously thought, which made subsequent actions much more difficult.

In fact, I had already given up on this action at that time. The reason I asked the Bureau to intervene was to give this plan a bottom line so that it would not get out of hand in the end.

What I didn’t expect was…”

Meng Lai looked at Meng Shu, "Xiaoshu, your classmate actually eliminated that entity all by himself, without any intervention from others. I rarely hear Aunt Yu praise someone, and your classmate is one of them. I heard that you gave him all the drug resources given to you by the company?"

"Yes."

Meng Lai nodded and said, "You did the right thing. Only sufficient investment can bring returns. Well, now you are the heir, you should give Meng Huang's share to him. Either don't invest, or invest to the end.

I have said that force is the fundamental guarantee. In addition to active consciousness entities like Li Ying, fighters also need to be befriended and won over. "

Meng Shu was silent for a moment, then said, "I understand, Grandpa."

At this time, the elevator finally made a loud noise, shook slightly, and finally landed on the ground.

Meng Lai pushed open the guardrail and walked towards the place in front where the industrial and mining lights were shining. When Meng Shu came out, she noticed that Li Ying was already standing in front of them, as if she had been waiting for them there.

The space below is very large, with densely packed and intricate ritual patterns underfoot. When walking over it, the colorful fluorescent lights inside flash from time to time, as if something is flowing inside.

Not far in front, under the soft light, one can see a flat metal jar with carved patterns. It has two spouts on the left and right, and a lid with a pepper-shaped handle on the top.

Meng Lai said, "Liying's body is stored in there, and my body is below." He stretched out his hand, "Xiaoshu, go to the front and stand there."

Meng Shu walked over without hesitation and stood in front of the mouth.

"Put your hand there." Meng Lai said from behind.

Meng Shu tentatively raised her hand and placed it in front of the kiss. She felt a slight pain, as if she was bitten by something. She subconsciously withdrew her hand and looked at it. She saw a tiny wound in her palm. Meng Lai said, "This is to allow her body tissue to exchange with your blood. In the future, within a certain range, you can find her at any time to let her serve you and pass on information and orders."

Meng Shu put down her hand, looked at Meng Lai and said, "Grandpa, I have a question."

"You ask."

"Grandpa has been planning to expand the active consciousness. Isn't he afraid that the processing bureau will find out?"

Meng Lai smiled and said: "If we succeed in this matter, eliminate the existence of the other side, and allow Li Ying to grow stronger, then the handling bureau will not say anything. Although there will be grudges, they will be more cautious when dealing with matters related to us.

If it doesn't work, I will announce my retirement and let you, Xiaoshu, take over the company. This will be an explanation to them."

Meng Shu looked at him and said, "I've always wanted to ask why Grandpa chose me."

Meng Lai said: "Among the younger generations, you are calm and rational, listen to others' opinions, and have the ability to make decisions at critical moments. You dare to make up your mind even if you know there will be difficulties.

It’s just that these traits are not absent from other younger generations, so in addition to these, there is another more important reason. Special consciousness entities will not be close to everyone. Even if you can drive her, the results will be very different depending on whether you are in harmony with her or not.

Among the many younger generations, only you and Meng Huang are the most compatible with Li Ying.

And now, you are the only one left."

Meng Shu had no way of confirming whether this was true, but she could only accept this answer, so she asked another question:
"Grandpa said that Liying is the foundation of the company's continuation, and no one in the company is irreplaceable. Grandpa said that includes himself, so it must include me, so who is the company for?"

Meng Lai smiled and said, "Some things may be difficult for you to understand now, but you will understand them soon. As the heir to the company, you are always the one closest to the answer. Before that, you just need to follow what I say."

At the same time, inside a building in Yinglu District, a capable woman with shoulder-length hair was smoking a cigarette, crossing her legs, and communicating with Jie Ping on the opposite side.

At this time, a voice came from the world: "Sister Huan, the higher-ups are very dissatisfied with us. The loss of the important items transported by Gong has forced us to launch the second plan. Now Meng Huang is finished, and without Meng Huang's cooperation, the second plan can't be promoted. Now the higher-ups want us to give an explanation."

Sister Huan said, "What do you want to tell us? What does it have to do with us? Gong Zhanyi himself failed to deliver the goods, and Meng Huang's failure is even more ridiculous. That's basically his own business. When have we not cooperated with him? We have done everything we can. This matter cannot be blamed on us."

The voice in Jie Pingli said, "But Sister Huan, there is no point in making excuses. Now that the plan cannot be advanced, the higher-ups have expressed doubts about our action team's ability to execute, and are already discussing replacing us with another action team."

Sister Huan twisted her hair with her fingers, smiled faintly, and said, "Okay, whoever is willing to take over can take over. I want to see who is more suitable than us at the moment?"

The voice on the other end paused, and said helplessly: "But Sister Huan, this won't work. The patience of the higher-ups is always limited..."

Sister Huan said, "Just say what you want to say."

The people in Jie Ping immediately fell silent and whispered, "Since there is no progress, the higher-ups asked us to carry out targeted elimination according to the targets listed by Wu Qi."

Sister Huan raised her eyebrows, "Wu Qi?"

"I know you hate Wu Qi's suggestions, but the plan has not made any progress. The only option for us is to try Wu Qi's plan first."

Sister Huan stood up from the sofa, took two steps in the room, and said, "Target?"

The other party seemed to be relieved and immediately sent a piece of information over. A lot of people's information and data immediately appeared on the light screen in front of Sister Huan, and one of them was Chen Chuan's information.

She also paused after seeing Chen Chuan's information and said, "This handsome guy seems to be the one who defeated Wei Wusheng?"

"Yes, Meng Huang's failure this time is related to this person. Wu Qi believes that this person is one of the people who will hinder the company in the future, and he may cause great harm, so it is recommended to get rid of him as soon as possible."

Sister Huan disagreed, "The future? I never believe in those things, but it doesn't matter." She walked to the window and looked out. Just a stone's throw away, a huge Ferris wheel was slowly turning there. She said, "Since it's the company's arrangement, I'll take this task."
