Chapter 184: Chapter 96: Manifestation of Sanctity and the Establishment of the Great Xia Database (7K)_3
’The disguise is quite professional, yet somehow unprofessional.’ Zhang Feng felt frustrated as he watched, then glanced at a young man approaching him.
The young man appeared ordinary, but his footsteps hinted at Tai Chi, and he had mastered his own energy transformation technique.
His expression seemed gentle, but in reality, his eyes were scanning around, revealing him as a top-notch reconnaissance soldier.
Besides them, several others were wandering around, moving as if sweeping for mines abroad.
The street outside his home was practically a gathering place for a special forces squad.
At that moment.
Zhang Feng saw a foreigner approaching from a distance, with the warmest smile he had ever shown in his life.
’Mr. Zhang...’ he said in fairly fluent Great Xia language, seeming to work for some party, attempting to invite Zhang Feng.
But before he took two steps towards Zhang Feng.
Two hulking men squatting by the roadside suddenly stood up, smiling and quickly moving towards him.
’Oh! Tams, are you looking for me?’
’We’ve been waiting for you for a long time; let’s find a place to talk.’
One of the hulks covered the foreigner’s mouth as they flanked him and walked off.
Zhang Feng was momentarily stunned, but he understood he was undoubtedly in an environment of ’being protected and observed’.
No one from the outside world could easily approach him now.
In fact, Zhang Feng was certain if there were any foreign assassins lurking nearby,
a muffled sniper shot would soon let that assassin meet their maker.
’I suppose the next step involves engaging contact.’
Zhang Feng had already prepared himself and continued walking towards home.
When he turned into the residential building area,
he saw a usual spot where people played chess and children ran about; now only a kindly middle-aged man awaited him.
’Mr. Zhang, hello there.’ The middle-aged man extended his hand, ’May I take up some of your time?’
’Sure.’ Zhang Feng shook his hand, noticing he was just an ordinary person, but sensed his breath was uneven through the handshake.
This indicated long-term irregular work hours and excessive stress.
’Orange peel, bezoar...’ Zhang Feng mentioned a few medicinal ingredients, ’Boil with plain water on high heat for fifteen minutes to cure your shortness of breath.’
’Thank you, Mr. Zhang! I’ll remember that!’ The middle-aged man trusted Zhang Feng deeply but felt unsure about this strange start.
He intended to ask questions but ended up being seen by a doctor?
’Let’s cut to the chase.’ Zhang Feng spoke directly: ’Although I don’t know your reason for coming, may I first share my thoughts?’
’This way, our conversation will be more straightforward.’
’Alright.’ The middle-aged man gestured with a spread open hand, ’Please go ahead, Mr. Zhang.’
As they spoke, cameras nearby focused on Zhang Feng.
The cameras along the way had also been observing Zhang Feng.
And behind these cameras were the nation’s top psychologists, behavioral scientists, micro-expression experts, and other thought leaders.
However, Zhang Feng had cultivated himself to perfection, naturally appearing to them as a detached alchemist free from worldly desires.
’Firstly.’ Zhang Feng acknowledged the many observers but continued casually: ’I have some martial arts methods to develop that require continuous meridian deducing.
But martial arts require a kind of visualization, which is quite difficult.
However, given our large population, someone might master it quickly.
Secondly, I need everyone’s martial arts data to further calculate more data.
I believe evolution doesn’t end here.
And my request is simply two things, data.’
’Promotion?’ The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, with various voices ringing in his earpiece.
Generally speaking, the remedy and methods were widely spread online and even abroad.
Some said that knights commit crimes through martial arts, but how can it be banned?
Energy transformation can be practiced without the remedy, just much slower.
Besides, if someone genuinely wanted to kill, it couldn’t be prevented.
Even picking up a brick could become a lethal weapon.
So discussions went on and on.
Most people hoped to strengthen the nation and its people, boldly stepping into galactic martial arts or even cultivation through science.
Perhaps even finding a way to extend life.
In the end.
After quite a while, the middle-aged man finally spoke: ’We will cooperate with the promotion, and I officially represent the government, inviting Mr. Zhang to serve as the National Martial Arts Chief Consultant. What do you think, Mr. Zhang?’
’Sure.’
...
Ten days later.
Zhang Feng arrived at a shopping mall on the outskirts of the suburbs.
The surrounding area had already been cleared, cordoned off for strict security.
Inside the underground mall,
it was filled with various instruments and display screens.
Zhang Feng walked in, seeing people installing detection gates for the underground base.
In front, people were coming and going, including researchers, administrative staff, and soldiers with live ammunition.
’Hello, Mr. Zhang!’
’Chief Zhang!’
Seeing Zhang Feng arrive, they greeted him, sneaking glances at the young man.
Because the higher-ups had informed them that this young man would be their future head.
’So he’s the one who initiated a new era?’
’That miraculous medicine and even more miraculous cultivation technique were his creations?’
’He looks so young, but his demeanor feels not like that of a young person?’
’President Zhang doesn’t look handsome, yet why does he seem so unique?’
They were curious about Zhang Feng and held him in much respect.
Someone who inaugurated a new era was revered everywhere.
Especially for them as scientists, they profoundly understood how phenomenal Zhang Feng’s medicine was this time, equivalent to founding a new scientific discipline.
