Chapter 553: Chapter 549: The Crisis of the Pavilion Master of Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion (2)

"What kind of technology?" Ling Chen asked. He only knew that Nanrong Yuan mastered a technology, but he knew nothing about it. However, given that the God Organization was so interested in it, that technology must not be simple.

Liu Wei said, "I’ve heard Mr. Lin mention, if the God Organization gets hold of that critical technology, then the Lucifer experiment will be phased out, replaced by even more advanced technology."

Ling Chen was startled—stronger than the Lucifer experiment? No wonder the God Organization was so keen.

"Last time, when you were at the spare base, you stole the laboratory’s hard drive. Mr. Lin, knowing the risk of confidential information leakage, thus shifted the focus to that critical technology. Once it’s in their hands, even if the Lucifer experiment is cracked, the God Organization need not worry."

During the conversation, Ling Chen’s cellphone rang. He glanced at the incoming number, saw it was from the Secret Society, and immediately answered the call.

"Mr. Ling, we just made contact with the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, but unfortunately, the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion had already left for Jin Hai City. Additionally, they suddenly lost contact two hours ago; we now have no news at all."

That’s not good!

Ling Chen frowned secretly; the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion losing contact could mean the God Organization had already acted.

If that was indeed the case, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion would face a grave crisis.

The phone had just hung up, and before Ling Chen could put away his phone, it rang again, this time from an unknown number. Upon answering the call, he heard Song Ge’s voice: "Hey! Ling."

"Song?" Ling Chen asked, surprised, "How did you get my number?"

"Just got it from the people at the Secret Society, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion asked me to check with you, to see how much you know about the situation."

"I’ve captured a member of the God Organization, all the information came from his mouth. The God Organization set up a trap in Jin Hai City, deliberately luring the Pavilion Master there to eliminate her. The lack of contact on your end doesn’t bode well," Ling Chen paused, then asked, "By the way! Song, who accompanied the Pavilion Master to Jin Hai City?"

"Zhou Qi and Zhou Jun went, and there are more than ten accompanying personnel. Moreover, for the Pavilion Master’s safety, a top-ranking Heavenly List expert is secretly protecting her. However, we now can’t even locate that Heavenly List expert," Song Ge said, clearly worried.

"Wait a moment, let me see if I can get more information, and then I’ll notify you."

"Okay. Ling, this is a critical matter, I hope you can help us."

"Don’t worry, I will."

After hanging up, Ling Chen turned to Liu Wei and asked, "The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion is missing, do you have any way to determine her current location?"

"The operations in Jin Hai City aren’t my responsibility, asking me won’t help."

"But you are part of the God Organization, I think you should have ways to obtain information." As he spoke, Ling Chen fished out a cellphone from Liu Wei’s pocket, indicating to the people nearby to untie Liu Wei.

"I don’t care how you do it, help me get information on the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion. If you can’t do it, I’ll keep this dagger for you."

Liu Wei glanced at the sharp dagger, his face turned exceptionally pale, and hesitated. He then picked up the cellphone, found a number, and dialed it.

"Turn on the speakerphone." Ling Chen, cautious of Liu Wei’s potential tricks, demanded he turn on the speakerphone to clearly hear their conversation.

Soon, the call connected, and a cheerful voice rang out: "Hey! Liu, what’s up for calling me at this time?"

"My task here is done, and I’m just bored, so I called to check in. Hey! Aren’t you in charge of the operations in Jin Hai City? How’s everything going?"

"Don’t even mention it. Although we captured a few people, the most crucial one ran away."

"Are you talking about the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion?"

"Who else could it be? But no big deal, I’m leading my men to chase her. She’s alone, she shouldn’t be able to get far."

"Then you carry on, I won’t bother you. When you’re back at the base, let’s get together properly."

"Definitely, definitely!"

Having finished, Liu Wei hung up the phone and looked at Ling Chen, saying, "You heard it, besides the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, everyone else got captured."

"Ask about their location."

"No, that would make him suspicious."

Hearing this, Ling Chen fell into deep thought. Zhou Qi and the others were caught, and whether they could save their lives was still uncertain. The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion was fleeing alone, it was hard to know if she could escape the hunt.

After thinking, Ling Chen immediately called Song Ge back and shared the information he had learned.

"Ling, don’t hang up yet."

"Okay."

Holding the phone, Ling Chen could hear many people discussing strategies on the other end. After a while, Song Ge’s voice came through again: "Ling, where are you?"

"In East Sea City. What’s up?"

"East Sea City isn’t too far from Jin Hai City, could you possibly..."

Before Song Ge finished, Ling Chen understood his intention.

"You want me to rush to Jin Hai City?"

"Ling, I know this is a tough ask, but we have no choice. You know, it would take at least four to five hours to get to Jin Hai City from here, by which time it would be too late. But if you leave from East Sea City, it would take just over an hour at most. You’re in the closest location, so we can only ask for your help. Rest assured, if you agree to help, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion will not let you go unrewarded."

"This..." Ling Chen hesitated, unsure whether to agree to their request.

"Ling, for the sake of friendship, please help me?" Song Ge pleaded over the phone.

Ling Chen sighed helplessly and replied, "Alright, I’ll head over now. But let me be clear upfront, I’ll go, but I can’t guarantee anything."

"I understand, just do your best."

Putting away the phone, Ling Chen said, "You guys escort him to Hu Fei’s place, be careful on the road."

"Chen, rest assured, nothing will go wrong."

Stepping out of the business car, Ling Chen was about to close the door when something seemed to occur to him. He looked at Liu Wei sitting inside the car and asked, "Among the several people who came to East Sea City, besides you, there’s someone named Yi Shuiyan; why haven’t I seen him appear?"

"Yi Shuiyan?" Liu Wei’s expression shifted as he asked, "How do you know that I had contact with him?"

"I’ve said it before, the entire East Sea City is under my control; there’s nothing I don’t know about. Speak up, where is he?"

"We just had a temporary meeting, discussing some cooperation matters. He said he needed to think it over, that he’d give me an answer after some time."

Ling Chen frowned and asked, "Is he representing himself or the Dangyang Sect behind him?"

"Dangyang Sect."
