Global Mutation: Become Unbeatable by Plundering the Gods

97: Interrogation of Li Qing”I just wonder if your current Divine Battle Armor can withstand a divinity bomb?”

At this moment, Li Qing could no longer afford to care about so much.

Delay breeds trouble.

Especially in Dawn City, even the slightest disturbance would be detected.

Just as Li Qing activated the divinity bomb in her hand, a figure appeared behind her like a ghost, gently placing a hand on her shoulder.

”Li Qing, you truly are disappointing...”

Wei Guangming’s familiar voice made Li Qing freeze in place.

She was shocked to discover that the divine energy within her body had completely solidified, unable to even move a finger.

The divinity bomb she had just activated now seemed to have been forcibly paused, falling into complete silence.

”C... City Lord...” Li Qing was utterly panicked, her voice trembling.

She had clearly blocked all communication around her and set up an Energy Barrier, so why could the City Lord sense it and appear so promptly?

Ignoring her, Wei Guangming turned to Zhou Xing: ”Retract your battle armor, it’s fine now.”

Only then did Zhou Xing realize,

the entire hall was already enveloped in a translucent energy field.

If he hadn’t notified Wei Guangming in advance, things would have truly been troublesome.

Now, as he relaxed, his legs went weak, nearly causing him to kneel on the ground.

”Li Qing, explain yourself. What conditions did Divine Gene promise you to dare act so boldly right under my nose?”

As he spoke, Wei Guangming waved a hand, and dense light energy instantly covered the entire hall.

Soon, Bei Chen and the other Chiefs all woke up one by one.

Upon seeing Wei Guangming, they hurried forward in unison, saying: ”City Lord!”

”You all are very disappointing. As Awakened Ones, you’ve nearly lost even the most basic sense of danger. If Li Qing had been a bit more ruthless, every single one of you would have died without knowing how.”

Wei Guangming’s cold voice made Bei Chen and the others break out in a cold sweat.

”Li Qing, why... what was the reason?”

Long Haotian looked up at Li Qing. Before losing consciousness, he knew someone had attacked him—after all, his neck still felt numb.

”Yes, Sister Qing’er, could it really be because of Zhou Xing? We’ve had over a decade of friendship among us, how could it come to this?”

Bei Chen also looked at Li Qing with a complex expression.

The other Chiefs were filled with confusion.

”Enough, take her to the interrogation room. I will personally question her.”

Wei Guangming waved his hand, and the group, including Zhou Xing, all headed to Dawn City’s specialized interrogation room.

Li Qing was now restrained on a specially made Divine Suppression Chair, looking terrified and sweating profusely.

The Watchers are usually lenient with their own, but it depends on the situation.

Especially this time, involving a Genius of Zhou Xing’s level, even if Li Qing didn’t die, she would lose a layer of skin.

At this moment, Wei Guangming sat in the main seat, with Bei Chen responsible for the interrogation.

After all, Li Qing had targeted Zhou Xing.

”Li Qing, I ask you now, please answer truthfully. When was your first contact with Divine Gene?”

Bei Chen’s voice was devoid of any emotion.

Li Qing’s lips trembled: ”F... five years ago. They contacted me proactively, wanting me to provide some information.”

As the interrogation deepened, everyone, including Wei Guangming, looked very grim.

Over the years, Li Qing hadn’t just engaged in information trading with Divine Gene; she had also dealt with The Officials, The Crucible, and other countries.

Some of the information even counted as core intelligence.

The indirect losses were immeasurable, and due to Li Qing’s information, The Watchers were often at a disadvantage in many large city disputes with Divine Gene.

”Setting aside the rest, why target Zhou Xing? Moreover, you knew that every move in Dawn City was within the City Lord’s detection range. What kind of condition could make you risk everything?”

Bei Chen, struggling to control himself, couldn’t help but continue the interrogation.

Li Qing now looked ashen-faced: ”Godfall City already knows that Zhou Xing is a Triple-element Fusion. Divine Gene has always been researching multi-system divine energy Fusion, and Triple-element Fusion Awakened Ones are rare, making them a primary target.

They promised that even if they couldn’t get Zhou Xing himself, they hoped to obtain his blood sample.

After succeeding, they would give me ample resources and even help me advance to the Law Realm.”

”That guy Gao Yun is quite generous. But if you really think he’d help you reach the Law Realm, you’re too naive.”

Wei Guangming also spoke up at this point.

Reaching the Peak of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm is possible with some resources,

but breaking through to the Law Realm requires talent and luck, as well as comprehending the Law power corresponding to one’s own divine energy.

Reaching the Peak of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm is possible with some resources, but breaking through to the Law Realm,

The interrogation lasted a full six hours, with Li Qing disclosing all her circumstances completely.

Finally, considering the seriousness of the matter, Wei Guangming directly summoned many Elders of Dawn City for discussion.

If a Chief of a major city has leaked so much information about The Watchers over the years, what about other major cities or medium-sized city outposts?

”According to the investigation, the information Li Qing leaked, including core intelligence, has caused immeasurable losses to us, The Watchers.” Wei Guangming scanned the crowd. ”Considering she nurtured Gu Qianjun as a promising talent and contributed to governing Luo City, the death penalty can be spared...”

”City Lord, why not Seal Li Qing’s divine energy and directly imprison her in the Awakened One Prison?” At this moment, Elder Tongxuan proposed,

then, after a moment of contemplation, looked at the other Elders and continued: ”I suggest initiating an internal self-inspection and verification within our Xia Country.

If just one Li Qing caused such severity, other places are likely unavoidable. For now, this matter can be handled internally; otherwise, once it reaches Headquarters, even the City Lord would be held accountable by the Commander.”

As Dawn City’s Law Enforcement Elder, Elder Tongxuan was the first to speak up.

Everyone else nodded in agreement.

”I agree. It’s been nearly six years since our Xia Country Watchers last conducted a self-inspection.”

Following her husband’s lead, Guo Xiaofu immediately added.

Immediately, the other Elders all nodded one by one.

”Alright, then after I send Zhou Xing and the other six to the Special Training Camp, you all will make arrangements to form a Watchers Self-Inspection Team, starting directly from within Dawn City, then moving to each major city for inspection.

Remember, show no leniency to any traitors found; handle them according to the established Enforcement Regulations.”

Nodding, Wei Guangming made the decision.

Li Qing’s incident served as a wake-up call for The Watchers.
