Chapter 47 : Wo Ke is a genius! Genius!

“Doctor, the situation at the meeting… wasn’t as good as expected, especially with the board of directors.”

“That’s enough. Stop mentioning the board every time you open your mouth.”

Under the night sky, the woman pressed her forehead with a headache.

These idiots truly hadn’t changed at all—still as ignorant as ever, completely clueless about the prospects of her technology.

This was a key that could open the door to an entire era!

“…Who is this person?”

“I’ve never seen her before.”

Picking up the terminal, Dr. Wang impatiently tapped the white-haired figure on the screen.

It was this very person who had ruined her originally certain victory at the meeting, leaving her in a foul mood all night.

“As you said, shouldn’t such technology be shared? Otherwise, why would anyone help you cover it up or give you free rein?”

“Thor Company alone probably can’t sustain such a large-scale operation. You can’t swallow the whole pie in one bite.”

Just a few words, and the room fell silent… such outrageous remarks had somehow earned the approval of those fools.

Dr. Wang could tell the reason those idiots agreed with the girl’s opinion wasn’t because all her points were valid, but out of fear.

A fear rooted in her status.

“She’s the eldest daughter of the Chaoge Luo family.”

“The Chaoge Luo family?”

Having never heard of the name, Dr. Wang frowned. Her assistant then leaned close to her ear and whispered.

“Her mother, the head of the Luo family, is currently…”

“Hmph.”

“How could they invite someone like this!”

The invitation was sent out by the board, intended to find potential partners for Thor Company, so the background of invitees was strictly screened.

They were afraid of being reported or targeted, so they only invited forces with similarly shady backgrounds, those just and upright types were excluded.

“…That’s something to ask Ms. Liu about… the board chairman was recommended only by her.”

Dr. Wang was still fuming, and the assistant dared not say more, preparing to quietly withdraw.

“Wait, what’s the latest on tracking the Number Four Freak? Any news?”

But Dr. Wang stopped her.

“After the target was taken away by the tentacle freak, they’ve remained at a cheap hotel with no signs of moving. Should we send mercenaries to secure them?”

“No need.”

If it was just a tentacle freak, the repaired Head Wolf could definitely handle it, but what she feared was the lv.5 Electromancer behind the tentacles.

The ability to control electromagnetism… was an absolute nemesis to modern technology.

“Continue monitoring Number Four’s movements.”

With a wave of her hand, she finally dismissed her assistant.

It was already past midnight when the SUV she rode arrived at the city outskirts.

Reflected in the car’s headlights, a rusty road sign came into view.

“One kilometer to Eve Sanatorium”

Sliding her terminal, a surveillance video began to play on the screen.

A group of white-coated doctors huddled around a hospital bed, discussing something, and on the bed lay a pale, unconscious blue-haired girl.

At that moment, a thin black mist approached Dr. Wang’s side.

There was no soil in the car, not even concrete; the hidden mist could only take the form of black fog to conceal itself, but that consumed a lot of energy and couldn’t last long.

The mist cautiously climbed onto the woman’s shoulder, watching the surveillance with her.

If she guessed right, this was the other test subject those people had mentioned.

…………

After hearing the mist’s report, Yijinmo immediately gave Liu Yulan a thorough checkup from head to toe, inside and out.

“I-I have a tracker on me…?!”

The girl was shocked by the news. She had no idea about this and had never noticed any foreign objects on her body.

If this exposed their location, wouldn’t that be…!

“Relax.”

“Not finding it is normal because it seems they implanted the tracker inside your body somewhere.”

“You were unconscious for a long time back then. If they didn’t take the opportunity to do something, it would be a waste…”

“But what if our location gets revealed because of it!”

“Don’t worry, I’m here.”

“I thought about this issue a long time ago, so in my place, any tracker within a 500-meter radius gets interfered with and destroyed.”

That explained why her neighbors always complained about poor network signals.

“But even so, we should remove the tracker from your body as soon as possible. We don’t know if it has any strange functions.”

Rubbing her chin, Yijinmo circled Liu Yulan once more and stopped behind the girl.

Hmm, such a beautiful back, fair and clean—what a waste not to give her a cupping treatment.

It was a bit troublesome; if she gave Welfare-chan a full body check now, it might fry the girl, but if she used Boss-chan’s high-quality tools…

“Just wait here for now. Don’t go anywhere. I’ll definitely help you get it removed before tonight’s departure!”

“Thank you, Chief.”

“Oh, don’t be so formal with me.”

Since there was a tracker implanted in Liu Yulan, there was definitely one in the Flame Beast too.

Consider it the first test of her new equipment.

…………

According to the mist, the location of the Ice Spike was confirmed to be inside the sanatorium, but due to the current physical condition, the mist couldn’t delve deeper.

Limited by energy consumption, the mist had to stop tracking at the sanatorium entrance.

But that was enough.

“Benefactor sister, what’s this?”

The mist curiously poked the strange-looking device in front of her, but judging by its chaotic shape, it was hard to guess its purpose.

“Could it be some kind of secret weapon?!”

“Of course!”

“This is the secret to my strength.”

“Mist-chan, let me quiz you: everyone knows geniuses rely on technology, fools rely on mutation, so what do you think I am?”

Facing such an obvious answer and Yijinmo’s unusually sincere gaze, the mist answered without hesitation.

“Of course, mutation.”

“Bang!”

Then a small wrench appeared on her forehead.

“I am a genius beauty! The genius among geniuses!”

She had been formidable since her previous life, and in this one, she used her abilities to develop her brain, quickly digesting a pile of science and medical books—all before she was even eighteen.

Her future was brighter than a general’s!

Picking up her store’s good knife, she placed it in the center of the manufacturing platform, then turned and rested her hand on the device.

Bluish-purple electricity surged from the girl’s palm, flowing into the device.

After a brief silence, the machine trembled.

Under Mist’s astonished gaze, the machine emitted an extremely dazzling electric light.
