The mandrill said helplessly: "It's not an orangutan..."
He pressed behind his ears, doing something unknown, and Virtual Blade did the same thing.
After a while, Xu Ren said to Xue Jing in surprise: "Oh? Your current danger level rating has reached 2.9 to 3.1."
Xue Jing shrugged: "I don't understand."
"The danger level is a rating system developed by a doctor in the Inner Ring City who is keen on combat power evaluation."
"For a normal healthy adult male, the risk level is approximately between 1 and 1.1."
"This system scales exponentially, just like the Richter scale, and every 0.1 magnitude difference is about 1.414 times stronger, which means that a person with a magnitude of 1.1 is theoretically about 1.4 times stronger than a person with a magnitude of 1."
"To put it simply, the highest danger level of the Tianxu Worm Mother is 6.2, which is equivalent to 65,000 of you stacked together." Xu Ren said.
Xue Jing raised his eyebrows.
That's dangerous enough...
"Of course, this is just an extreme case. In fact, the level of the Tianxu Worm Queen fluctuates greatly, with the highest being 6.2 and the lowest being only 1.8."
"The Tianxu Insect Queen can absorb the genetic information of the organisms it eats and give birth to corresponding insect species. It can even eat different organisms and mix the genes of different organisms together..."
"More than a month ago, a smuggling gang from the border captured a Tianxu insect queen in the 'Carrion Lake' and brought it out."
"After we learned the news, we chased them all the way until they fled into Sunny City, and then suddenly disappeared without a trace."
"It doesn't matter if they disappear, but we have to find the Tianxu Insect Mother. Otherwise, if she eats something wrong and gives birth to some terrible monster, it will be no joke."
Xu Ren looked at Xue Jing.
"And now, through you, we finally found a clue."
Xue Jing frowned and said, "You mean, the cockroach monster I killed was born by the Tianxu Insect Mother?"
Void Blade nodded: "Not bad."
Xue Jing narrowed his eyes slightly.
"So this thing... is a mix of cockroaches and humans?"
"I guess so... The Tianxu Bug Queen moves very slowly and is a big target. If it was acting alone, it wouldn't have taken so long to find. Someone must have hidden it and wanted to use it to achieve some purpose."
Xu Ren looked at Xue Jing and said sincerely: "Xue Jing, you are only seventeen years old. You have only practiced martial arts for more than a month and have reached this level. You are very talented and have the courage to face the creatures of the borderland... For someone like you, staying in the outer ring will only waste your potential."
"I hope you can join our White Crow Task Force. We have the support of the [Institution] and the most professional and advanced training system in the entire Zhuxia. We can definitely fully tap your potential in all aspects without any blind spots."
“You deserve a bigger stage.”
Xue Jing was silent.
For a moment, he was actually moved.
But he soon rejected his idea.
With the addition of Bai Ya and the support of the mechanism, what Xu Ren said sounded beautiful, but unfortunately, it did not apply to him.
He had the training system that was above everything else from the very beginning...
Perhaps if he joined this kind of official organization, his growth rate would indeed be much faster than it is now, but he felt uncomfortable when he thought of the various restrictions that would come with it.
There is no such thing as a free lunch... If you take something from the government, you must pay something in return.
What if his superiors ask him to carry out some orders that he is unwilling to do
It's not worth it to be controlled by others just for that little growth rate.
Xue Jing shook his head: "Sorry, I refuse."
Xu Ren's expression did not change, and he said as if he had expected it: "It's okay, I think I understand your thoughts, but don't rush to refuse."
"How about this? With the authority of the captain of Team 838, I will temporarily grant you the status of a non-staff member of the White Crow Task Force."
"You are still free and don't have to obey anyone in the agency. But when the need arises, I will ask you to do something in the form of a commission, and you can choose to accept or refuse."
"If you choose to accept and complete the work, I will also report it to the authorities and give you the corresponding reward."
"If you wish to join formally in the future, you can become a full-time employee at any time."
"Look, how about this?"
The mandrill next to him had a strange expression, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
The captain was treating him too well.
Is genius really that great
Xue Jing: “…”
This condition is too lenient.
But it didn't make any sense to him, and he was about to refuse, but suddenly he thought of something.
Xue Jing asked, "Are there any divine relics in this [organization] of yours?"
Xu Ren was slightly startled, and thinking of Xue Jing's identity as a C-level intern, a hint of smile flashed across his eyes.
"Yes, of course. One of the scientific research departments within the agency is the 'Divine Relics Research Institute', which houses many divine relics, even a few of the top 100..."
"Are you interested in divine relics?" asked Xu Ren.
Xue Jing pinched his chin and said, "Yes, I am interested. To be honest, I am a fanatic fan of divine relics. My dream is to touch all of them. Of course, just touching them is enough."
Xu Ren understood what he meant.
"Then, as long as you complete the work entrusted by Bai Ya in the future, I will report to the agency and reward you with the opportunity to access the divine relics in the agency."
Xue Jing extended his hand and said sincerely, "Deal. To be honest, I've been a fan of White Crow for ten years. My dream is to become a member of the White Crow... Of course, I'll be a non-staff member."
Xu Ren shook his hand and said with a smile, "Deal."
…
After Xue Jing and Xu Ren exchanged contact information, they called the Pei brothers back, and the three of them drove away from the back mountain of North City District.
After they left, only Void Blade and Mandrill were left there.
"Captain, is it necessary?"
The mandrill folded his hands and put them behind his forehead. "He's just a martial arts genius. Although rare, he's not that rare, right? Are you even offering such a condition to keep him?"
Void Blade shook his head, "You don't understand."
"This person... is more than just a martial arts genius."
She tapped her forehead with the silver bracelet on her wrist.
Suddenly, countless pixel-like small squares of various colors spread out on her face, and the originally ordinary face with scars turned into a rather beautiful face.
"I contacted the eldest lady of the Wu family yesterday and tested her. The degree to which she values Xue Jing is beyond imagination."
The mandrill was surprised and asked, "Ms. Wu? Is she the 'natural gift'?"
Void Blade nodded: "Yes."
"She has been looking for a way to remove her status as a gifted person... Only God can fight against God."
"In addition to the divine relics, she actually cares about other things... Xue Jing must have something special that we haven't found yet."
Xu Ren gathered his short hair that was messed up by the wind and looked in the direction where Xue Jing left.
"If you know it's a good thing, even if you don't know what it is, you have to grab it first."
"White crows are such greedy creatures."
She whispered softly.
…
Xue Jing, who was sitting in the car, suddenly remembered something.
Previously, when he was riding in a taxi, he looked out the window at the unfinished buildings in the southern part of the city and seemed to have seen a cockroach-like creature.
Although it seems that he was mistaken, it was just a black plastic bag...
But just in case, he took out his cell phone and sent the information to Xu Ren via WeChat.
Soon, he received a reply from the other party, saying that they would go to that area to investigate. Xue Jing nodded and put away his phone.
Xue Jing did not go back to visit the Pei brothers, but asked them to send him home directly.
The Pei brothers tried to persuade Xue Jing to stay, but seeing that Xue Jing really didn't seem to be interested, they had no choice but to give up.
After getting off the car outside the gate of his community and saying goodbye to his two brothers, Xue Jing was about to go back to pet the cat when his cell phone suddenly vibrated.
He opened it and saw that it was a WeChat message from Wu Youqing.
[Come to the library to see me when you are free.]
Xue Jing thought about it and it seemed that there was nothing else to do for the time being.
Since the rich boss has summoned you, let’s go. Maybe there are some divine relics to touch.

Xue Jing was sitting on the bus, scrolling through his phone boredly.
This was a new phone he bought. His old phone was completely damaged due to an electromagnetic pulse when he was at Ruizhu Hotel.
He opened a current affairs news app.
[The U19 qualifiers have ended. Li Chengxuan, a dark horse player from Jinfeng Dojo, is the leader in the Maple City Division and has threatened to beat ten... ]
[Recently, boundary earthquakes have occurred frequently in various regions. Experts: It is suspected that a new boundary will be born soon]
[Six earthquakes occurred in the unfinished area of South City in three days, with the highest magnitude reaching 5.6, which may trigger a "weak overlap". Residents are requested to pay attention to safety... ]
“Unfinished area…”
After seeing this news, Xue Jing was reminded of the black shadow of the cockroach that seemed like an illusion when he saw it from afar before.
"I don't know if there will be any gains from Bai Ya."
Xue Jing shook his head.
The bus slowly stopped, Xue Jing got off the bus, entered the campus, went straight to the Qingda Library, and came to the seventh floor.
In the old attic, there was still only the girl sitting alone on the wooden chair, silently flipping through the book in her hands, as if she was a ghost bound here forever, unable to leave.
The waist-length ponytail swayed gently, and her pretty face had a tranquility that seemed to never change. Her graceful figure and upright sitting posture formed a quiet and elegant picture in the old attic.
Seeing Xue Jing coming, Wu Youqing glanced at him with her lavender eyes, then pointed to the seat opposite.
"You are here, please sit down."
Xue Jing walked forward, pulled out a chair and sat down.
There were two cups of hot tea on the wooden table. Xue Jing picked up the cup in front of him and took a sip.
Strange sweet taste...
"Boss, can we have something nice to drink?"
Xue Jing shook his head.
Wu Youqing also picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"This is tea made from the water produced by your favorite divine relic."
She chuckled.
"I choose Coke, thank you." Xue Jing stood up, went to the wall, opened the dark door, and took out a can of Coke from it.
He opened it with a snap and gulped the drink down, letting the stimulating and refreshing feeling brought by the carbonated drink flow through his whole body.
After he returned to his seat, Wu Youqing said:
"White Crow should have contacted you."
Xue Jing's hand holding the Coke paused slightly.
