Chapter 769 - 769: The Package is at the Security Office, Your Life is on Yellow Spring Road_1
"Why won't this little brat leave the university grounds?" Liao Xun, through his connections, quickly arrived at Eastern State Martial University, only to find he couldn't trick Wang Linchi out.Wang Linchi was too much of a homebody, truly holed up in his dormitory and refusing to leave.
The most he would do was go to the cafeteria for meals on time, his routine as regular as a straight line between two points.
Therefore, Liao Xun had no opportunity to make a move.
He also didn't dare to act within Eastern State Martial University. The place was teeming with complex individuals: Martial Sect members were everywhere, Martial Generals were numerous, and the principal of Eastern State Martial University was even a Martial King. He, a mere Martial Master, knew he would be caught the moment he tried anything.
The best method was to lure the target away.
Today is the last day. If I still can't resolve this... Liao Xun was growing increasingly anxious.
If worst comes to worst, I'll just have to take a gamble.
His plan for the gamble was simple: tell Wang Linchi he had a delivery.
He had discovered that Wang Linchi occasionally ordered items online and would go to pick up deliveries.
Online shopping platforms hadn't emerged yet, but the practice of communicating and purchasing items over the internet was budding, albeit without sufficient safeguards.
After leaving Eastern State Martial University, Liao Xun got a new phone number and disguised his voice. "Hello, your delivery has arrived."
"Leave it at the gatehouse," an experienced voice replied from the phone.
"Gatehouse? What gatehouse? You didn't fill out the wrong address, did you?" Liao Xun said, feigning ignorance because he knew Wang Linchi's habits.
"Impossible. Just deliver it to the gatehouse at Eastern State Martial University." This time, the voice on the phone carried a hint of impatience. "You didn't go to the wrong place, did you?"
"Otherwise, could you please come and pick it up? The address is..." Liao Xun didn't even finish speaking before he was cut off.
"I'm not going. Either deliver it to me, or I'll file a complaint against you directly." Wang Linchi finished speaking and hung up.
This left Liao Xun speechless. How can you be so cautious?
The old gatekeeper at Eastern State Martial University was a retired Martial General of unfathomable strength. Anyone who caused trouble at the gate never had a good end.
If Liao Xun truly delivered something—setting aside the fact he had nothing to deliver—he wouldn't dare make a move at the gate. The gatekeeper could genuinely beat him to death.
His own death was a small matter, but his family would suffer because of it.
Gritting his teeth, he called again. "It's a large item. Do you want it or not? If you want it, come get it yourself. If not, I'll return it right now."
Liao Xun was truly out of options. He shouldn't have used such a harsh tone, but he had to try.
Fortunately, he finally received a positive response.
"Fine. The east side of the west warehouse at North Number 16, South Street, right? Once I get my goods, I'll make sure to file a complaint against you that will have you fined until you don't even have underwear left," Wang Linchi's voice on the phone said, clearly displeased.
Liao Xun wiped the sweat from his forehead, his expression immediately relaxing. That was close. I finally managed to trick him out.
I need to get ready.
On the other side, Wang Linchi hung up the phone, muttering unhappily, "What a ridiculous address. If you want to ambush me, just do it. Why bother with all this?"
Wang Linchi wasn't stupid. What large package? All he bought were bacteria, and those things aren't big.
Besides, how could a courier deliver to the wrong place? They have designated delivery zones.
I just wonder which faction is behind this.
Wang Linchi swapped to another phone and expertly sent the address he'd been given to a certain number.
The recipient replied with a question mark, clearly baffled and having no idea what the sudden address meant.
Seeing this, Wang Linchi didn't reply, simply removing the SIM card and crushing it.
The recipient was none other than Captain Guo Xian of the Department of Earth Defense. Don't ask how he got the phone number. If you did, the answer would be 'Plug in'.
There's a ninety percent chance it's that oblivious Shi Family. Let Captain Guo test the waters for me first. Wang Linchi leisurely put his own SIM card back into his phone.
Wang Linchi was certain that the moment they met, the other party would attack. That would be interesting. Daring to attack a captain of the Department of Earth Defense? That's tantamount to slapping the Department of Earth Defense right in the face. And if one looks closer and it's the Shi Family... that would be amusing.
He definitely wouldn't go. Knowing it's a trap, why would he walk into it?
He had no weaknesses for them to exploit, so he didn't need to worry about their threats at all.
The benefits of having only one page in the household register are clear now, Wang Linchi thought with great satisfaction. Otherwise, they could easily grab a weakness, and he'd have to scurry over.
But there's still a ten percent chance some important person is trying to mess with me. Wang Linchi's eyes narrowed. If that's the case, this could be a big problem.
As for the Department of Earth Defense, only The Warlord Principal could be unafraid of such important people. The Eastern State branch really wouldn't be up to it.
Let me think... how should I deal with this?
The simplest way to solve the problem was to kill those so-called important people. If he couldn't solve the problems they created for him, then he'd solve them by eliminating the important people themselves.
But my current strength is a bit lacking, and my main body isn't here. I have no one to back me up.
If it really comes to it, then... I'll decimate River City. Wang Linchi's eyes narrowed again.
He was very skilled at poisoning, especially since he had constructed a micro-ecosystem within his body, which made him even more formidable in this regard.
For future modifications, he only needed to alter his own ecosystem.
So, since trouble had found him, Wang Linchi planned to eliminate all of it.
Perfect, this will serve as a good cover. With that thought, Wang Linchi stood up, planning to sneak back to River City.
Getting back was simple enough: find a suitable flight and sneak aboard.
Buying a ticket was out of the question. Firstly, he had no money; secondly, it would leave a trace.
He didn't need to worry about leaving traces. Since the successful modification of his micro-ecosystem body, he could alter his appearance, including height and weight, without any problem.
Nor did he worry about how to send these VIPs to meet their maker. He was very thorough in his methods. As long as he found someone with power and influence, that person would surely know who the VIPs were.

"Third Master, it's been monitored." A hacker produced a segment of audio recording.
A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of Shi Si, known as Third Master. Not long ago, his nephew, Shi Ming, had mentioned this Wang Linchi to him.
Offended important people? That must be fake. It's definitely a lie the other party is using as a cover.
So, he had become even more invested, even bribing a telecommunications company to intercept Wang Linchi's signal data and hiring a hacker to monitor it.
"What's the situation?" Shi Si asked calmly.
"Warehouse pickup. The address is the east side of the west warehouse at North Number 16, South Street!" the hacker reported.
"Are you sure that's the address? It's not some kind of code?" Shi Si frowned; it was rather bizarre.
"I've checked the map. The place genuinely exists. It's not a code," the hacker quickly explained.
"Good. Second Brother, and Fourth and Fifth Brother, this might be our chance to deal with Big Brother once and for all," Shi Si said, a cold glint in his eyes.
The five of them were half-brothers. The four, though united, were suppressed by Big Brother, who also had a son skilled in scheming, making it exceedingly difficult for them to turn the tables.
This rare opportunity absolutely could not be missed.
"Yes, Third Master." The hacker immediately notified the other three Shi family members and instructed them to gather sufficient forces to go there.
They had to make this battle decisive. Otherwise, if they continued to delay, they had no chance of winning.
「」
Guo Xian frowned at the text message on his phone, his expression somewhat troubled.
"This address... it's not a code, is it? Check it for me." Guo Xian handed the message to a specialist at the Department of Earth Defense.
"No, it's likely an anonymous tip. For it to reach your phone, perhaps someone discovered an Alien Race," the specialist confirmed after verification, sounding somewhat resigned.
"Huh... If they're going to report something, why do it anonymously? Don't tell me they're afraid of being targeted for sticking their neck out? Is that the climate out there now?" Guo Xian was also left speechless.
"Who knows? Captain Guo, you should take more people, just in case. This whole thing is indeed strange," the other person kindly advised.
Guo Xian thought about it and agreed.
So, he not only called all his own squad members but even brought along several of his colleagues and their respective teams.
The text message was truly too bizarre. Just an address, sent so furtively, definitely spelled trouble. Otherwise, why wouldn't they come forward openly?
The large-scale mobilization drew considerable attention, arguably one of the Department of Earth Defense's biggest operations of the year. A normal deployment wouldn't cause such a stir.
