Wang Zheng naturally knew that the old man Sun that Gu Lao was talking about was the military region leader he had met once from afar.
However, he did not have the same level of influence as the military region. As one of the four major military regions, the region only had five A-level Awakened individuals in the elemental system.
Based on what he saw in other cities in Yunnan and the more than 6 million permanent residents in southern Beijing.
He thought to himself that there must be at least some A-level Awakened Ones.
Actually, he was a little curious right now: including the awakened ones from other categories, how many A-level individuals were registered in Jingnan, and how many were extraordinary individuals?
What percentage of these people are from military regions?
Wang Zheng wanted to ask, but he didn't in the end because he knew that it involved the soldiers of the military region, and these were all classified information. He didn't want to put Old Gu in a difficult position just to satisfy his curiosity.
As for the ordinary, awakened individuals...
Even if you understand, it's not very meaningful. Those who can confidently lead the A-level Awakened in the rear are either retired soldiers like my mother who have been reassigned, or they have returned after being injured and losing a lot of strength.
It's hard to say how much real strength they have left after years of comfortable living.
Gu Min, unaware of Wang Zheng's thoughts, continued speaking to herself:
"Our department hasn't been established for very long."
If it weren't for the rampant and chaotic activities of the demonic forces in southern Beijing a few years ago, I wouldn't have accepted the military region's invitation to form such a team.
At the time, Lao Sun did consider transferring a few A-level officers, but I ultimately refused them all.
Firstly, the Heavenly Demons at that time were indeed not that strong. Even though their attack methods were somewhat strange, elemental energy could still slowly wear them down.
Secondly, I don't want to delay other people's cultivation.
Look, Captain Dang Liantao was one of the earliest soldiers to follow me, and he was also the leader of the entire combat team. But look at him, in every mission, he was always the first to go in at the slightest sign of trouble.
In such an environment, where would one find the time to cultivate oneself?
Over the years, I've always felt quite indebted to him. If it weren't for those fake news stories that are 90% misinterpretations, he probably would have advanced to the next level long ago, given his qualifications.
The most important thing is that we don't have the most effective way to detect the Heavenly Demons, so we can only spend a lot of time and energy to control them.
Do you think an average A-level Awakened would be willing to wander around Jingnan for some ambiguous little things?
Of course, I don't doubt their professional ethics. Although they will definitely carry out the orders of the military region diligently in the short term, they will definitely get annoyed after a while.
Sigh, I don't even dare to dream of becoming a superhuman; that's already the strongest in the country. But as for A-level awakeners, I still hope to cultivate a few myself.
Otherwise, even this old man would be powerless against these increasingly powerful demons…
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Min stared intently at Wang Zheng, as if she wanted to hear his reply.
After hearing Old Master Gu's constant complaints, Wang Zheng really wanted to slap himself a few times.
He could easily see through Old Master Gu's meaning; he just wanted to drag him, Young Master Wang, into the mess, as if others needed to cultivate but he didn't.
'Uh... I don't really need it, but I don't want to run around the city because of uncertain information.'
Moreover, if I remember correctly, Lao Dang is only 31 this year. I saw his intelligence was 58 and his spirit was 52, and his spiritual energy value was over 4800.
Lao Dan's data is similar, while Yu Shaoting's might be slightly lower, but only slightly, and she's only 28 this year.
So, according to the old man himself, everyone in this team is a genius, yet he's still complaining about being poor. The old man is really wicked.
Of course, if they weren't the strongest, they wouldn't be the ones to be the team leader and captain.
'They think they can drag me into this? Do they think I don't know their capabilities?'
Wang Zheng wasn't stupid. He regretted asking the question as soon as he did. Seeing Gu Min chattering away, he kept his head down and remained silent, pretending to be mute.
Gu Min found the quick-witted boy amusing and didn't say anything more, and they entered the military region through the gates.
Wang Zheng landed at the entrance and then walked into the research institute.
After watching Li Li settle the four mutants in, Wang Zheng, having perfectly completed his mission, planned to slip away.
Every time he was by Grandpa Gu's side, he felt that the old man had feelings for him, and his eyes were particularly ardent.
This was especially true after Old Man Chu was injured; it's unclear whether the two old men had secretly conspired against each other.
When Wang Zheng said he was leaving, Gu Min didn't try to stop him. She just said some caring words like, "Come visit the military region often when you have time," and "Take a good rest when you get back."
Wang Zheng grinned sheepishly, offering no explanation. Then, with Professor Gu Min's concern, he didn't even dare to take the return trip and ran straight out of the military region.
Then, having identified its direction, it flew towards the outskirts of the city on the opposite bank of the river.
