Lu Qingchen didn't say what he meant next, but everyone else understood.
Zhou Yanli awkwardly pursed his lips, and then, with Gu Mingyue's introduction, shook hands with Lu Qingchen.
“Mr. Lu is an ability user who can become invisible. It’s truly remarkable that Boss Gu was able to subdue such a capable person.” Zhou Yanli ignored the awkward situation from before and said to Gu Mingyue with a smile.
His gaze towards Gu Mingyue deepened slightly, then turned to Xinghe, who didn't like to talk to anyone, as if he was wondering if the two of them, like him and Lu Qingchen, were also ability users with other abilities.
Gu Mingyue completely ignored his gaze and led the group to a private room where they sat together.
Upon seeing the plump crab legs on the table, Lu Qingchen immediately began to eat them without any hesitation.
During this time, Zhou Yanli tried to ask him about the internal situation of the Angel Church, but he ignored her completely.
This man had almost completely ruined Zhou Yanli's good manners; the veins on his forehead were even slightly bulging.
Seeing that he had almost finished eating, Gu Mingyue asked, "How is the situation inside? Has the new angel leader and Watanabe Laboratory been in contact recently?"
Lu Qingchen elegantly finished eating the two crab legs with a metal knife and fork, narrowed his handsome eyebrows, and looked at Gu Mingyue with a very charming smile.
“Beautiful boss, you immediately asked about that angel cult leader, without caring about me at all, and without even asking if I was injured.”
"I cut you off before I even got in there!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a crab shell was smeared onto his beautiful face in front of him, and an invisible spatial wall pushed Lu Qingchen directly to the ground.
The force was just right so that it wouldn't make an excessively loud noise.
Xinghe Junyi's face showed a slight displeasure.
If this person weren't still useful to Gu Mingyue, he would have killed him long ago. He really disliked having someone around Gu Mingyue who was always eyeing her.
Gu Mingyue gently patted Xinghe's arm hanging by his side to comfort him.
"Cough cough, boss, are you just going to watch your man hurt me like this?" Lu Qingchen wiped the crab shell off his face and helped himself up by the corner of the table.
Gu Mingyue's expression remained unchanged. "With Xinghe's abilities, taking your life would be an easy task. I've already shown you great mercy. Now, answer my questions properly."
Lu Qingchen twitched his lips, clearly hurt. After being beaten, he finally confessed the information he had gathered about infiltrating the Angel Church over the past few days.
"I heard that scanning machine was also made by Watanabe's laboratory. It contains mental crystal cores below level four and can scan the level of a superhuman. Ordinary people can't avoid it, but I can perfectly avoid it with my invisibility technique. That useless machine can't detect me."
Lu Qingchen was somewhat proud when he said this, but then he couldn't help but glance at Gu Mingyue again when he thought about how Gu Mingyue could easily lock onto him while he was invisible.
When Gu Mingyue saw him looking over, she praised him and then gestured for him to continue.
"The new angel leader is a man who values his life. His residence has been equipped with many life-saving mechanisms. Apart from the leader's wife, who has an access card, no one else can get close. I have tried several times, but I still cannot get close."
"Fortunately, there were other church members. I was hiding in the ventilation duct and I heard that they seemed to be preparing for a new 'human and cargo' shipment that needed to be sent to sea in exchange for repair fluid."
“Only Watanabe Labs can produce the repair fluid; no one else can replicate it. It seems they’re going to make a deal with Watanabe Labs this time,” Zhou Yanli said, stroking his chin.
"I wonder if Mr. Lu knows where their transaction will take place?"
Lu Qingchen completely ignored Zhou Yanli's question, and instead looked at Gu Mingyue with his narrow fox-like eyes, as if waiting for her to ask.
Gu Mingyue did not disappoint him and asked again.
Lu Qingchen shook his head: "Their secrecy measures for this transaction location are very good. Only the Angelic Leader knows about it, and he only notified the other instructors the day before the transaction. I don't know either."
Gu Mingyue frowned upon hearing this, and after a moment of silence, asked, "How many people can you carry with you using your invisibility skill? I want to infiltrate the Angel Church."
Gu Mingyue was afraid that the angel cult leader was using deceptive tactics during the transaction, so she asked him a question.
Moreover, this Angel Church, by selling the repair fluid to the homeless in the apocalypse, has inadvertently led them to cause trouble for her Bright Moon Base.
This organization relies on brainwashing and proselytizing, and it always seems to spring up again after a few attempts. She plans to take this opportunity to dismantle the Angel Church from within.
"One...two, I can only take two people, and there's a time limit. You can only use them for a maximum of two hours a day, so I can't guarantee you'll stay invisible once you're in."
Lu Qingchen originally wanted to mention one person, but since he had been at the Mingyue Base for so long, Gu Mingyue had gained a certain understanding of his abilities, so he included Xinghe as well.
As for the president of the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce, he always had a smirk on his face, and his gaze towards Gu Mingyue was neither clear nor unclear. Xinghe had been by Gu Mingyue's side before, so he could tolerate it, but Zhou Yanli came later, and he didn't want to add another rival in love.
Upon hearing his words, Gu Mingyue immediately decided that she and Xinghe would sneak in that night.
Zhou Yanli, being the president of the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce, was not angry at Lu Qingchen's deliberate exclusionary behavior. He also suggested using other methods to infiltrate the Angel Church.
The method is simple: pretend to be a victim and ask the Angel Church for help.
As expected of the president of the Nirvana Chamber of Commerce, Zhou Yanli was ruthless in his self-punishment, personally beating himself into a pig's head and running towards the gate of the Angel Church with the equally disfigured Angel Leader.
He kept looking back as he ran, as if he really had an enemy chasing him.
The Angel Church maintained its previous image of saving people from suffering. After scanning Zhou Yanli and discovering that he was a late-stage Level 4 healing ability user and another person who looked terrible was a Level 3 earth ability user, they readily accepted them.
"I was just worried about not finding any new goods lately, and here are two homeless people delivered to my door. One is a useless person who has lost all his senses and his limbs have been removed, and the other is a healing ability user who has no offensive capabilities. They are no use to the church, so I will find an excuse to lock them up in the dungeon and send them to Dr. Watanabe."
The newly appointed leader, standing atop Bright Peak, stared at the video feed transmitted from the city gate and spoke.
During this time, the screen briefly distorted.
The angel leader glanced at the ability level display and, finding no alarms, paid it no mind. After watching the church's internal surveillance for a while, he used his access card to pass through layers of security and return to his residence.
He had complete faith in the products manufactured in Watanabe's laboratory and never imagined that someone could ignore infrared detection and even sneak in right under the nose of the supernatural ability detector.
