Orderly tyrant

Inside the conference room.

"So far, according to the multi-sensor detection from the three super-resolution surveillance satellites, the intelligent monitoring system of the satellites has not found any suspicious targets illegally escaping from Lin'an City on the surface."

"After the patrol and public security forces sealed off all the major roads, all personnel have also been carefully verified, and there are no abnormalities for the time being."

"The city and surrounding underground drainage systems have also not been damaged."

"As for unknown underground passages... according to the 3D modeling simulated by GPR combined with MSM data, four illegal underground passages have been discovered. Two of them lead outside the city, and patrols and drones have been dispatched to seal them off."

"In summary, if the Primitive Research Institute really has criminal activities in Lin'an City and dispatched personnel to assist Chu Tianyao's actions... these people should still be in the city."

On the conference table, the three-dimensional projection of Lin'an City was enlarged, reduced, partially analyzed, and rotated laterally with the touch of the technicians' fingertips.

The surrounding fifteen patrol officers and technical experts in related fields were sitting around.

After listening quietly, Tang Wanqiu then spoke, "In other words, the people from the Primitive Research Institute are still hiding in Lin'an City, right?"

"Highly likely."

A technical expert next to her pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose, "But the current underground space detection technology can only accurately detect about fifty meters underground at most. In simple terms, if someone digs an underground passage that is more than fifty meters deep and long enough, such as exceeding the currently detected boundary range of 29°11′ north latitude, then it is also possible to escape."

Tang Wanqiu looked at him and asked, "What is the probability?"

"Very low," the technical expert said, "Even if they really have the ability to build a hundred-kilometer-long underground passage silently, the maintenance difficulty and cost would be ridiculously high, unless it is Zhixing's black technology."

"That's enough."

Tang Wanqiu nodded slightly and looked at the bearded man next to her, 'Gong Ming,' and said, "Go connect the headquarters' life detector to the three-dimensional projection of Lin'an City."

"Yes."

Gong Ming immediately moved out an instrument composed of silver-gray metal and black stripes, which looked like a half-person-high hexahedron.

The surrounding experts all looked at it with shining eyes.

This kind of technological creation is many levels beyond the Earth's civilization outside the metropolitan area, and it is difficult to disassemble and analyze, let alone imitate.

Even in the metropolitan area, apart from the Zhixing Group, I am afraid that only the Dawn Group, which has received foreign investment and introduction, can come up with this kind of instrument.

"This is the life detector provided to the headquarters by the Dawn Group, which can release a large number of automatically searching micro-invisible sensors."

Tang Wanqiu explained casually, "Using it in conjunction with the Lin'an City map projection can accurately capture the existence of all life fields in Lin'an City, and it is enough to filter out extraordinary lives."

Even the patrol officers, who were somewhat illiterate in technology, understood what she meant.

Most of the personnel of the Primitive Research Institute have undergone genetic modification, and their life fields are stronger than ordinary people. Also, those who have successfully transformed through cultivation also have extraordinary life fields.

Such people are ultimately a very small minority, which is equivalent to greatly narrowing the search scope.

If it weren't for such a major incident as the murder of a patrol officer, the headquarters would not have taken out such a precious instrument.

"Begin."

Tang Wanqiu glanced around and ordered, "The three senior patrol captains will lead you fifteen patrol officers to conduct searches simultaneously, and verify and clarify all suspicious targets at any time."

Lin Qing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in secret.

The headquarters is worthy of being the headquarters, and it really has means.

He had wanted to eliminate those people who were monitoring him in the dark for a long time, but he couldn't expose Zhao Jiayi's psychic awakening identity, otherwise he couldn't explain how he discovered those hidden guys.

Fortunately, the headquarters' methods are powerful enough. Although it is not as clear as psychic detection, it is enough to discover those suspicious targets.

"Be sure to maintain communication and listen to assignments at any time."

"Anyone who resists will be killed on the spot."

"Then... let the operation begin."

...

...

Under the leadership of the three senior patrol captains, the operation went smoothly beyond expectations.

All suspicious personnel were carefully verified, and the communications department also cooperated, retrieving the trajectory records of communication equipment at any time.

Those who were unregistered or criminals were temporarily detained, and those who resisted were invariably killed.

What a joke.

A group of patrol officers acted collectively, and there were also three senior patrol captains with terrifying strength sitting in charge. Under this lineup, even ten Red Iris Societies would be completely wiped out overnight!

What's more, there is a patrol envoy whose strength is unknown sitting in charge of the overall situation!

Lin Qing had already had Zhao Jiayi investigate, so he also knew more about those guys who were suspected of coming from the Primitive Research Institute. Most of them were estimated to have only survived from genetic modification experiments, and they were only slightly stronger than ordinary people.

There were only five or six people whose life field reached the level of the seventh edition of the cultivation method.

Even if they cultivated and mastered a few combat techniques, it would be useless in front of the senior patrol captain.

However, they would indeed encounter some hard bones who resisted desperately.

...

"Bang!!"

Inside the empty and spacious corridor, two patrol officers flew out of the room almost at the same time. Only the sound of glass shattering from the window was heard, and the two patrol officers immediately broke through the window and fled.

"Die!"

In the angry shout, a tall and strong man like an iron tower was seen chasing out of the room, and each step caused cracks to appear on the marble floor.

At the same time—

"Whoosh!"

A blurred black phantom suddenly appeared in the corridor, rushing towards the tall man like an iron tower. At the same time, a metallic luster appeared on one hand, instantly turning into an afterimage, and swung out an arc trajectory.

In an instant, they had already passed each other.

And the tall man like an iron tower was rigidly fixed in place, and then his neck turned slightly, and his head had already fallen off.

The head rolled down, blood spurted out, and the headless corpse fell to the ground.

Lin Qing quietly turned his head and glanced at it.

The two patrol officers who had fled through the window also rushed back, and their expressions relaxed.

"I didn't expect this person to be so strong. Fortunately, Captain Lin took action in time. Thanks."

"Captain Lin killed this person with one move. As expected, he has the strength of a patrol captain."

The two patrol officers quickly thanked Lin Qing.

"It's nothing, you two continue to search," Lin Qing shook his head slightly.

With his strength, even if he only exerted half of it, he would be stronger than Xu Qiu.

And this iron tower strongman who was beheaded was at most ranked sixth or seventh among the seventeen patrol officers in Lin'an City. Compared with him, he was far behind.

The senior patrol captain responsible for sitting in charge of their group was the thin genius teenager 'Shu Feiyu' who was only sixteen years old.

After the sound of the window breaking, this senior patrol captain also rushed over immediately.

...

Under the harsh measures of the patrol headquarters, coupled with the life detector, in just three hours, hundreds of suspicious people with extraordinary life fields in Lin'an City were all verified.

Many of them did not dare to be investigated. Some tried to escape, some tried to resist, and some tried to end their lives.

But in the end, it was all in vain.

Among the entire Lin'an City, Xiaoshan District had the most suspicious personnel.

Especially near Lin Qing's home, it was like hitting the nest of suspects, hiding one after another.

But with the efforts of the patrol headquarters, the result was no surprise.

...

Three hours later.

"The operation is officially over."

Tang Wanqiu glanced over the patrol officers and said, "All suspicious personnel have been brought under control, and it is enough to leave the follow-up to the headquarters for processing. Everyone can be dismissed."

Lin Qing couldn't help but feel a movement in his heart.

It's over like this?

The number one person in charge of the Red Iris Society has not been found yet!

Patrol Envoy Tang clearly knew that the person who attacked Xu Qiu was too strong, but she just didn't investigate?

That person has at least cultivated the original version of the Chaoyang Cultivation Method and is comparable to a senior patrol captain. He has no chance to leave Lin'an City. In theory, the life detector can find him.

But there has been no trace of him.

Where is he hiding?

Lin Qing immediately realized something was wrong: "Could it be... Patrol Envoy Tang is deliberately confusing the public?"

However, he didn't ask any more questions.

After all, with his current strength, he doesn't want to get involved in the struggle between the patrol headquarters and the Primitive Research Institute.

At this time, Lin Qing's heart was already very satisfied.

At this moment, as the suspicious personnel in the entire Lin'an City were cleared out, and even the criminals including Chu Tianyao disappeared, the order level had been raised to an unprecedented height.

[Current order level: 5.7]

In the past few days, because the personnel of the Primitive Research Institute were stationed in Lin'an City and were monitoring him at all times, the order level dropped by as much as 1.8 levels.

And today, the order level has not only fully recovered, but also because Chu Tianyao has also been resolved, plus some additional gains were found among the suspects...

Therefore, the order level soared to 5.7 at once.

The key lies in the thorough investigation by the patrol headquarters. Compared with the patrol tasks of the branch bureau, it is really a thunderous method, and no suspicious person is let go.

"If it rises by another 4.3 levels, it will reach the condition for unlocking level 10..."

Lin Qing was more and more looking forward to it.

At the latest, the first-class merit will be issued in a week.

At that time, not only will he be able to freely learn all the combat techniques in the secret room of combat techniques, but he will also be able to learn the three awakening methods, as well as the original version of the 'Free Body' combat technique that can only be learned with special merit authority!

...

After all the patrols were dismissed, only Tang Wanqiu and the three senior patrol captains were left in the conference room.

"I didn't find that person."

Tang Wanqiu frowned slightly and said, "It seems that either that person has already left Lin'an City, or is hiding in a place sufficient to shield the life detector."

"Is there such an instrument?" Ouyang Ze next to her couldn't help but ask.

Tang Wanqiu said calmly, "The spear and shield are bound to coexist since ancient times. If there is a life detector, of course there is also something to shield and hide."

"Director," Gong Ming said softly, "There are still many missing people in Lin'an City who have not been found so far, and even the remains do not match. But even if it is a genetic modification experiment, there are always survivors."

"Perhaps these people are hidden somewhere in this Lin'an City."

Tang Wanqiu said in a deep voice, "The ultimate goal of the Primitive Research Institute is genetic modification, not killing people, but it is also strange that none of them can be found. A group of people mysteriously disappeared, and they always have to maintain their lives, right?"

Gong Ming nodded slightly and said, "Perhaps it is a large-scale special shield?"

"Then we can only wait slowly," Tang Wanqiu said, "This kind of large-scale shield also consumes a lot of electricity. Starting today, we will count the city's electricity consumption. Once an abnormality is found, and the location is determined, we will immediately find an opportunity to search."

"Yes," Gong Ming said, "Then we have to let the Primitive Research Institute know that we have not actually left, so they will be nervous and maintain the shield all the time."

Tang Wanqiu nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, I just said that the operation is over. As long as people with brains know there is a problem, they will definitely guess that I plan to investigate secretly."

...

After this major operation ended, life seemed to have returned to calm, and Lin'an City became more stable than ever before.

But those who are interested can guess that this is just the calm before the storm.

Lin Qing saw that the combat technique 'Intent' was almost completed, but he was not in a hurry to continue learning the next combat technique in the Divine Transformation series.

After all, he only needs to wait for the first-class merit to come down to go to the combat technique secret room to get those great benefits.

"I might as well measure the progress of gene awakening."

That day, after Lin Qing went to the branch to draw blood, his blood was also sent to the testing center.

Soon, the gene detection report came out.

Looking at the report in his hand, Lin Qing also got a simple result.

"11% probability of successful gene awakening?"

Lin Qing nodded secretly, "There is actually 11%, which is quite high. It seems that after cultivating the original version of the Chaoyang Cultivation Method to the limit, the genes have been optimized, and the probability of gene awakening has been increased by about 10%."

According to the description of the original version of the Chaoyang Cultivation Method—

Once the original version of the Chaoyang Cultivation Method is cultivated to the extreme, it can increase the probability of gene awakening by 10%.

In other words, if he had not cultivated the original version of the Chaoyang Cultivation Method, I am afraid that the probability of awakening would be less than 1%!

According to the investigation, the average success rate of Earthlings' genes to achieve gene awakening with the help of third-level mysterious energy is only 0.6%-0.9%.

Only a few people can be born with a gene awakening probability of more than 10%.

According to statistics, the highest gene awakening probability data ever detected globally is 37%, and there is only one such case.

And the extraterrestrial civilization of the Zhixing Group seems to have everyone as gene awakeners.

The gap is too big.

According to theory, the most powerful thing about gene awakeners is that their own genes are controllable, allowing their own genes to adapt to different environments and evolve different advantages.

As long as the energy supply can keep up, they can change their own genes, and cultivate combat techniques can also get bonuses.

"11%, I have a lot to do..."

Lin Qing sighed helplessly, "There is an 11% probability of success. Once it fails, the gene will collapse and die, or the gene shackles will be more solid, and the difficulty of breaking through will be higher. You must try again when you are sure enough..."

Therefore, he can only hope for the gene optimization benefits of the headquarters.

...

Time passed day by day.

In a blink of an eye, it came to the city bureau's city-wide commendation meeting.

After speaking, Lin Qing sat down in the audience and casually flipped through his phone, occasionally refreshing the patrol background data, hoping that the first-class merit would be approved as soon as possible.

Suddenly—

The patrol system sent him a new message.

[Dear Inspector Lin Qing, you have new merit changes, please check them.]

"First-class merit, it's finally here!"

Lin Qing couldn't help but brighten up.
