Chapter 4
The atmosphere in the conference room was lively. People sat around a long table, discussing in groups of three or four the various situations that occurred during the mission.
Yan Xuanjin was holding a cat in his arms and pushed the door open with a cold face.
"Boss, are you okay?" Someone noticed his arrival and asked with concern.
"It's alright." Yan Xuanjin walked to the end of the long table and gestured to the person standing nearby to open his AI. He seemed oblivious to the people around him vaguely observing the creature resting on his arm. "I'm sure everyone has noticed that the Zerg we face on this mission, whether in terms of number, scale, or level, is far greater than the information described in the intelligence provided to us by the military. As a result, the routine cleanup mission around the β route has become an A+-level mission with a risk factor exceeding 70%. What's going on? Information Department, please report."
"Yes, Boss." A slender, baby-faced girl stood up. "After you led Team 2 out, we detected abnormal fluctuations near Route β. By comparing the waveform patterns and analyzing them, there's an 80% chance of a Zerg migration point. However, this marked point didn't appear in the intelligence provided by the military. After discovering the migration point, we quickly reported it to you and conducted a risk assessment. Our final conclusion is to return immediately..."
"But at this time, we have been surrounded by the Zerg." Vulture, the captain of Team 2, interrupted impatiently.
"Interrupting a girl isn't the proper behavior of a gentleman." Cheetah raised an eyebrow, played with his hair with a finger, and flirted with Vulture. "Of course we understand the danger of your situation, but for someone like you, shouldn't you be able to control yourself?"
"you!"
"I?"
"Shut up." Yan Xuanjin rubbed his temples with his knuckles and asked, "Have you found any signs of information interception?"
"Yes, Boss. Traces of information interception appeared near the Star Network IV port. Such a location and traces are a common tactic used by the Source Tracing Faction."
"Okay. Okay, you guys can discuss whatever you want to discuss slowly. I'll go back first." After saying that, Yan Xuanjin walked out of the meeting room, carrying the cat that was sleeping soundly on his arm.
…
When the cat woke up, it was met with Yan Xuanjin's sharp eyes.
"嘤——" So fierce.
"It's so ugly." Yan Xuanjin looked at its bald and timid appearance, and really couldn't figure out how this little guy got in the door.
As an S-level sentinel, Yan Xuanjin is very sensitive to the sentinel guide's mental power and spiritual body. After keeping this little beast by his side for a while, he has roughly determined that it is not a spiritual body.
Since it is not a spiritual being, it must be a real cat.
But... the cat species has been extinct for millions of years, so how could it appear again on the capital planet?
Most of them are things created by the origin-tracing school.
I don’t know what those old guys who are keen on saving the world from archaeological discoveries are thinking.
While Yan Xuanjin was thinking, he gently stroked the cat's back which had grown a little fur.
Logically speaking... can cats grow hair so quickly?
Thinking of this, Yan Xuanjin frowned, picked up the cat, and looked at the wounds on its body.
"Your injury is almost healed, why is Milu still bandaging you?" Yan Xuanjin took off the bandage and looked at the newly grown pink and white skin and flesh on the cat's body. He couldn't help but reach out and poke it.
"Meow~" It's so itchy.
The kitten struggled to escape from his clutches, but instead of jumping off the work table, it burrowed into the man's arms, nodding its furry head and making flattering noises.
——Nonsense, the cat has already figured out the man's high status here. As long as she can capture this man, she won't be afraid of being thrown out~
