Fang Xin was stunned for a moment.
After seeing Fang Xin's micro-expression, Zhuge Heng was certain that Fang Xin really didn't know.
Fang Xin himself was also shocked.
He hadn't expected that the old man would have such a powerful identity.
Now that he thought back on the bits and pieces of the old man's life, he could indeed figure out something.
The old man had always claimed to be a retired veteran to the outside world, but he had never mentioned his army unit number.
Whenever asked, he would say that he was an ordinary soldier from an ordinary unit and that after leaving the army, he just wanted to live a peaceful life.
When his parents passed away.
When Fang Xin was staying with his grandfather in their hometown.
At that time, his grandfather had told him many stories from the last century.
Many details about the Holy Light Army and the Eternal Night Army were only briefly mentioned in textbooks, but the old man could talk about them in great detail.
Moreover, now that he thought carefully about how the old man had reacted when he learned about Fang Xin's talents back then, it seemed that the old man really knew something.
Although Fang Xin tried his best to restrain his face and not show any unnecessary expressions, his heart was in turmoil.
He pretended to be calm and looked at the handsome white-haired man, Zhuge Heng, in front of him.
"FangQing Monarch? Never heard of him!"
"Of course you haven't heard of him. His name is taboo!
Back then, your grandfather, FangQing Monarch, defected from the organization and brought unprecedented heavy losses to the Divine Court. Let me put it this way, the Chaos of the Gods only slightly weakened the Divine Court's strength, but your grandfather, single-handedly, severely damaged its vitality!"
Once again, waves of shock surged in Fang Xin's heart. He hadn't expected that the kind and amiable old man had once been so domineering and invincible.
But Fang Xin's expression also became solemn. "So, do you mean you're going to arrest me?"
Zhuge Heng smiled. "It's not that bad. After all, I'm a big fan of your grandfather.
Moreover, the reason your grandfather defected from the organization back then was that there were numerous factions within the organization, and serious differences emerged among various factions. Some people unjustly accused your grandfather of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and they wanted to kill your grandfather, a founding hero of the organization. Later, the faction that framed your grandfather fell from power, and the Divine Court rehabilitated him!"
"So that's why I must join the Ninth Division?" Fang Xin asked again.
Zhuge Heng held up two fingers. "There are two reasons why we hope you'll join the Ninth Division. First, after all, your grandfather was a founding figure of the predecessor of the Ninth Division, that is, the Divine Court Organization. The current person in power in the Ninth Division, Old Master Ye, was a sworn brother of your grandfather. If you join the Ninth Division and are under his protection, your future will be smooth. As long as you achieve enough military exploits, no one will stop you from getting promoted. In other words, you can be regarded as the crown prince of the Ninth Division!
As for the second reason, it's also a very important one. Both of your parents were top-notch scientific research talents. Their car accident didn't seem to be a simple accident but more like murder. Your parents discovered something, something that could enhance genes at the lowest cost. Some people had their eyes on this thing, so they deliberately arranged that car accident. After your parents passed away, the whereabouts of this thing became unknown. Some people guessed that it was with you. An innocent man is always in trouble when carrying a valuable thing.
So joining the Ninth Division is not only for your future but also for your safety.
Of course, you can choose to refuse. I can give you three days to think about it!
Here's this thing for you! If you figure it out, just crush it, and I'll show up!
Of course, if you're in danger, you can also crush this thing, and I'll come to save your life!"
Zhuge Heng flicked his finger, and a nearly transparent ball flew towards Fang Xin.
Fang Xin held the thing in his hand. It was very light.
He had to find a way to contact his grandfather and confirm whether what Zhuge Heng said was true.
Fang Xin put the thing away. "Are you very strong?"
"Before the Chaos of the Gods, the combat power realm was divided into fourteen levels, including Summoning, Origin Flow, Pulse, Standing on the Ground, Observing the Well, Harmonizing with the Dao, Breaking the Mirror, Responding to the Void, Spiritual Platform, and so on. Later, for convenience, they were simply called Level 1, Level 2, Level 3, and so on.
As for my combat power, according to the current level division, when I'm wearing glasses, my combat power is at Level 11."
Fang Xin looked at Zhuge Heng, who had been wearing sunglasses since they first met.
"What about without glasses?"
Zhuge Heng didn't say exactly which level it was. He just put his hands in his pockets, Zhuge Heng didn't specify the level, just put her hands in her pockets, Say it with confidence:"Very strong!"
Even though Zhuge Heng didn't say exactly how strong he was, Fang Xin could sense a strong air of showing off.
"Logically speaking, since you're so strong, shouldn't you hold a high position and rarely show up?" Fang Xin asked in confusion.
Zhuge Heng grinned, showing his white teeth. "I have a nickname, the Loafer of the Ninth Division.
However, this trip was really worthwhile. I got to meet my idol, FangQing Monarch's descendant.
Where did your grandfather go? According to the information you left, I went to your hometown, but I couldn't find him."
"I don't know."
"Didn't he say anything before he left?"
"No."
Zhuge Heng clasped his hands behind his head. "Okay. The thing that Xiao Lu gave you just now is the Sky Shield Intelligent Linker independently developed by the Sky Shield Bureau. In the entire Sky Shield Bureau, only newly joined members of the Ninth Division will be equipped with it. Newly joined members of the other eight divisions need to go through a one-year assessment period before they can be equipped with it.
After successful identity authentication, you can use it to contact teammates, look up information, and also check other people's talent levels and combat power levels. As for other functions, when you decide to join the Ninth Division, someone will naturally introduce them to you!
Any more questions? If not, let's go out! I'm hungry. I specifically came at dinner time to freeload a meal!"
"Why have I never felt my other talents?"
"Because they haven't truly awakened yet. It's like a sharpshooter doesn't know his talent for guns before he touches a gun. Even after touching a gun, he still needs training. After the talent test, the Ninth Division will provide you with targeted training to polish your talents! Any more questions?"
"Not for now!"
Snap!
Zhuge Heng snapped his fingers.
Everything in front of him was like a shattered mirror. When everything was pieced together again, they found that they had returned to the living room.
Fang Xin just thought that this talent was really amazing.
However, it also had a lot to do with the fact that Zhuge Heng, who was known as the Loafer of the Ninth Division, was really powerful.
Seeing the two of them appear, everyone in the room immediately looked over.
Zhuge Heng casually sat down. "Aunt Fang Xin, serve the dishes!"
Fang Huilan was a bit slow to react for a moment. Zhuge Heng was really not polite at all. She went to the kitchen to bring out the dishes herself.
"How fragrant! I knew I should come at dinner time!"
Zhuge Heng put the dishes on the table and looked at Tong Fengwu, Li Yinqiao, and Chu Gang.
"What are you still doing here? Are you also here to freeload a meal?"
Tong Fengwu quickly shook his head and waved his hands. "No, no! We're here to recruit Jiang Xiaochai, Fang Xin's sister!"
"Who are you?"
"Mr. Zhuge, I'm Tong Fengwu from the Tiannan Chamber of Commerce!"
Zhuge Heng nodded. "Oh, so you're the profiteer from the Tiannan Chamber of Commerce! You've used contracts to trick many students with ordinary family backgrounds into working for you illegally, right? Get lost!"
"Okay!"
Zhuge Heng looked at Li Yinqiao. "Who are you?"
"I'm from the Li family in the provincial capital..."
"All profiteers. You get lost too!"
Li Yinqiao didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction at all. She politely bowed. "Goodbye, Mr. Zhuge!"
Jiang Weidong's family was dumbfounded.
The Tiannan Chamber of Commerce and the Li family in the provincial capital had very large businesses. There were few ordinary people who didn't know them. The people in charge of such huge organizations in Lancheng were also quite prominent figures, but they were so humble in front of this white-haired man.
Zhuge Heng looked at Chu Gang. Chu Gang stood up. "Chu Gang from the Fourth Division!"
"I know you." Zhuge Heng served himself a bowl of rice. "Let her go to the First Division first. The First Division is short of someone with a psychic talent. If she doesn't adapt there, she can go to your Fourth Division then."
"Okay, Mr. Zhuge!"
"Do you have any objections?" Zhuge Heng looked at Jiang Xiaochai.
Jiang Xiaochai's head was buzzing. Subconsciously, she looked at Fang Xin.
"Do as he says!" Fang Xin said.
Jiang Xiaochai nodded. "No objections!"
Jiang Weidong quickly said, "Can you let my daughters join the Ninth Division too?"
During the time when Zhuge Heng and Fang Xin disappeared, Jiang Weidong had also asked about the Ninth Division. The more he asked, the more shocked he was. He hadn't expected that the Ninth Division that Fang Xin was going to join was so powerful.
"Which daughters?"
"Both of them!"
Zhuge Heng sat down.
"Your eldest daughter is a bit lacking, and your youngest daughter is even more lacking. Even the guard dogs at the Ninth Division have a B-level fire-attribute talent.
Any more questions? If not, can we have dinner first? I'm so hungry!"
Jiang Weidong's face was ugly, but he didn't dare to disobey Zhuge Heng at all. He hurriedly invited Zhuge Heng to have dinner.
During the meal, Jiang Weidong frequently and enthusiastically served food to Fang Xin with a big smile on his face, looking as if he wanted to kneel down to Fang Xin.
"Come on, Xiao Xin, here's your favorite braised fish!"
"Mr. Zhuge, Xiao Xin has been smart since he was a child! Please take good care of him in the future!"
"Xiao Xin, what would you like to drink? Today you're the great hero of our family. Uncle will pour you some wine!"
After the meal.
Zhuge Heng took an apple, took a bite as he walked out.
"Three days! Remember to give me an answer!"
After seeing Zhuge Heng off and returning to the room, Jiang Weidong was still acting obsequiously.
"Xiao Xin, would you like some more to drink? This is the good wine that Uncle bought!"
"No, thanks!"
Fang Huilan looked at Fang Xin with relief, as if she had remembered something.
"Xiao Xin, I almost forgot. There was a courier for you this afternoon. It was delivered to the door. I put it in your room!"
"Okay!"
Fang Xin took the Sky Shield Intelligent Linker and went back to his room.
There was a courier box on the desk.
He opened the box.
Inside was a mobile phone.
Fang Xin immediately recognized that it was his grandfather's phone.
He quickly took out the phone.
The phone was out of battery. He found the charging cable and charged it.
After turning it on again.
The photo album was in the middle of the screen, very conspicuous, like a foolproof reminder.
He clicked on the photo album.
Sure enough, he found a video in it.
Fang Xin clicked on the video.
It was pitch black, and the camera was shaking.
A few seconds later, his grandfather's urgent voice came through.
Through the violently shaking camera, it could be seen that Grandpa seemed to be on the run.
Besides, shrill sounds could also be heard in the video.
"Xiao Xin, I'm your grandpa. You must remember the two things I'm going to tell you next!"
