My cells devour all worlds.

Chapter 123 Gathering Information

After Jiang Zhi left, Lu Sheng rode his motorcycle straight to the Awakened Ones' Office.

After learning that it was likely You Xiayao, Lu Sheng prepared to inquire about the details.

Let's confirm whether that's true or not.

Shortly after, in the lobby of the office.

Before Lu Sheng could find the informant, he was bewildered by what everyone around him was talking about.

"Are you kidding me? A level-three ferocious beast has appeared near the outskirts of the southern district? Are you kidding me?"

"The base has already issued a notice that the entire Behemoth Squad has been wiped out. How could it be false?"

"Interested in pulling this stunt?"

"Forget it, let's leave this kind of headache to those level three squads..."

Even the electronic screen in the lobby has this task displayed at the top.

[Base Mission: Investigate the trail of the spider-like beast on the outskirts of the southern area. Danger Level: Estimated early level 3. Reward: 1000-5000 contribution points... Details have been sent to all teams...]

"When was it delivered? How come I didn't know?"

Lu Sheng looked at the mission description in surprise.

On the outskirts of the southern district, there are spider-like ferocious beasts and a squad of giant beasts that people around are discussing.

Could this be referring to him?

"you do not know?"

At this moment, upon hearing Lu Sheng speak, one of the men turned around and sized him up, a subtle smile suddenly appearing on his face.

"Young man, this is usually given to top-tier level two teams, or teams with special awakened individuals. As for the rest..."

At this point, he simply smiled and remained silent.

"..."

Isn't that saying he's bad at the game?

Lu Sheng didn't argue with the other party.

Their team was newly formed, so it was normal for them to be ignored.

"I see, thank you for clearing up my confusion."

After saying that, Lu Sheng walked to the side; he had already spotted the informant.

He needs to sort out the current situation; the informant should have detailed information about this mission.

Upon hearing this, the man glanced at Lu Sheng's retreating figure with a hint of surprise.

Lu Sheng didn't interfere.

He was already lost in his own thoughts.

Lu Sheng is extremely likely certain that the spider-like beast described in the mission is him!

I just don't know how much information the base has about him.

Lu Sheng approached the informant, and as soon as their eyes met, the man's eyes lit up. He lowered his voice, "What would you like to know, brother?"

"Any news about that base mission? It looks quite interesting."

Lu Sheng pointed to the electronic screen, pretending to be a bystander.

"This? If you want it, I'll give it to you for free."

The informant pulled a piece of paper from inside his clothes and handed it to Lu Sheng.

"That's so good?"

Lu Sheng was surprised.

"Pshaw, what's the big deal? Just go ask at the counter where you accept the mission, and they'll give it to you."

The informant chuckled, "If you think I'm a decent person, just contact me next time you have any information. We're open to buying and selling."

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Ren Kuan, Ren as in willful and Kuan as in broad."

"OK."

Lu Sheng made a note of it. He didn't rush to buy other information, but instead looked at the information in his hand.

Ren Kuan was approached by another person and led to a corner.

The information on the paper was limited, but Lu Sheng quickly grasped the gist of it.

The text reads, "Possesses stealth abilities, uses spider silk, is extremely powerful, and is suspected to be a level three spider beast."

Lu Sheng was slightly startled.

The other party had almost figured out all his methods, and there was no one else around at the time.

This is clearly the method of the awakened ones.

The good news is that the other party's abilities were clearly not that great; they only saw the general outline and mistook him for some kind of spider-like beast.

However, they failed to discern the true situation.

Lu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief; this incident had served as a reminder to him.

Awakened beings possess all sorts of abilities, and there might even be one who can see through their abilities.

I need to be more careful in the future.

Fortunately, he was testing his new abilities at the time, so his actions were more in line with the animal in his mind, which saved him from disaster.

Lu Sheng was unsure what would happen if it were discovered that he could use multiple abilities.

In the best-case scenario, nothing might happen, and they might even be groomed as geniuses; however, they could also be captured and studied.

Who knows?

Lu Sheng always made the worst-case scenario plan first.

Relying on yourself is the most reliable way.

He has many secrets.

His body was constantly getting stronger. Although the daily growth wasn't as noticeable as before, Lu Sheng could still feel it.

I get stronger even when I sleep.

Lu Sheng just couldn't find that same 'critical' feeling as he did the first time.

After the breakthrough, it was as if my whole being had been elevated.

Perhaps there is still a lot of room for improvement in his physical condition.

Secondly, there are the internal energy techniques in the martial arts world, and the now-abnormal ability to imitate.

He'll definitely come out worse off if he gets caught.

Lu Sheng felt it was better to be a little more sleazy.

Go ahead and look for it. It would be strange if you could find it. The 'spider' is right here.

Looking at the few Awakened Ones who said they wanted to join in the fun, Lu Sheng smiled. As long as he didn't cause any trouble these past few days...

Once those teams have scouted the area and found nothing, this matter should be over soon.

Without any crucial information, Lu Sheng didn't care anymore.

He contacted Ren Kuan again, who had just finished a transaction and was looking for new clients.

Upon seeing Lu Sheng approach, Ren Kuan immediately broke into a warm smile.

"Is there anything else you'd like, buddy? I have all sorts of information here."

"Are there some in other districts too?"

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow; he needed to confirm this first.

"Of course, as long as it's within the base, you can't go wrong by asking me. I also have information about other bases, but less so."

Ren Kuan patted his chest confidently.

Since that's the case, Lu Sheng no longer had any doubts and asked directly, "Alright, I need Captain You's information."

Ren Kuan pondered for a moment, "Captain You? Which You?"

"I don't know either, that's why I came to you." Lu Sheng didn't mention You Xiaoyao's name, since he wasn't sure if it was her.

Are you testing me?

Ren Kuan showed no sign of difficulty; on the contrary, he was very confident. "I have the information, and I guarantee you won't find more complete information anywhere else."

"But once the consultation starts, I'll charge 50 Hope Coins for every ten minutes, and any time less than ten minutes will be charged as ten minutes. Also, this only includes regular messages; special messages will cost extra. Is that alright?"

Lu Sheng naturally had no objection, "Okay."

"Hold on."

Ren Kuan did not answer Lu Sheng's question. Instead, he turned around, walked to a spot, pulled over a fat man, and introduced him.

"This is my brother, Wang Tao. His ability is super memory; he can remember anything he's ever seen."

Wang Tao looked like a Maitreya Buddha. He smiled and greeted Lu Sheng warmly:

"Hey bro, what kind of information do you need?"

"Don't worry, I've already talked to this guy."

Ren Kuan reached out to stop the other person, then looked at Lu Sheng and asked, "Including him, we'll still calculate according to the previous agreement, is that alright?"

Seeing Lu Sheng nod, Ren Kuan snapped his fingers lightly, "Don't resist."

As he spoke, an invisible wave suddenly emanated from Ren Kuan, enveloping the three of them.

In an instant, Lu Sheng felt the noisy sounds in the hall disappear and become completely quiet.

The ability to block sound?

Just as Lu Sheng was pondering, Ren Kuan spoke again.

"Okay, that's enough. This is my ability. You don't have to worry about being overheard when you speak here. It's my responsibility to protect the privacy of every customer."

He raised an eyebrow at Lu Sheng, then slapped Wang Tao's big belly.

"Fatty, this brother needs information about Captain You. Quickly use your abilities to search for all captains with the surname You within the base."
