Chapter 801 Directly Breaking In! Crushing the Scum [2 Updates]
Although she had been taking care of Lu Yuan at the Lenger family these past few days, she had also been in contact with Dean Norman.
This morning, Dean Norman was still excitedly telling her that he wanted to show her some new inventions.
Furthermore, Dean Norman also had new ideas regarding the epic project of a space carrier.
Dean Norman is a research fanatic, so how could he possibly not be in his office on weekdays?
The academician who spoke pursed his lips, his voice strained: "Miss Ying, the dean..."
"Junior Sister Ying!" an anxious voice rang out. "Junior Sister Ying, why did you come to the research institute? Didn't I tell you not to come?"
Ye Siqing and several students ran from the direction of the laboratory, their heads covered in sweat.
Ying Zijing turned her head, her phoenix eyes devoid of warmth: "What happened, Senior Sister Ye? Tell me."
Ye Siqing hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Just an hour ago, the Sage's Academy sent someone to take Dean Norman away."
It was called an invitation, but it was practically the same as kidnapping.
If the Academy of Sages sends someone, who can disobey them?
"Ye Siqing!" an academician blurted out, "Who told you to say that!"
They were well aware of Ying Zijin's personality.
They all knew how much Ying Zijin respected Dean Norman.
If she knew that Dean Norman was in trouble, she would definitely confront him no matter how strong he was.
Ye Siqing pursed her lips: "Even if I don't say it, Junior Sister Ying will find out sooner or later."
"The Academy of Sages." Ying Zijing nodded slowly and smiled slightly. "Very good."
They've gone so far as to kidnap people in broad daylight.
It seems they really are impatient.
Ying Zijin asked calmly, "Which sage?"
Ye Siqing's face was still a little pale, and he couldn't figure out the girl's attitude: "She came with the Institute of Biological Genetics, so she should be the Magician."
"The magician." Ying Zijing said indifferently, "I understand."
She didn't linger and turned to walk straight out.
"Miss Ying!" An elderly academician exclaimed anxiously, trying to stop her. "Miss Ying, Norman said that he can have his problems, but you can't!"
This was an order personally given by the Sage's Court.
Even if Ying Zijin is now the head of the Leinger family, she still can't compete with the Academy of Sages.
The Academy of Sages holds absolute power in the City of the World, and its position is completely unshakeable.
Whether it's a top-tier family or a research institute, they are ultimately nothing more than playthings of the Sage's Academy.
Even though they all knew that after Dean Norman was taken away, there was a 99% chance that he would disappear from this world completely, just like the previous Dean of the Engineering Academy.
They were loyal to science, loyal to the residents, but not to the House of the Wise.
Scientific research requires sacrifice, but they do it willingly.
"No one can be harmed." Ying Zijing said coldly as she walked out while making a phone call. "Cheng Yuan, take five hundred ancient martial arts masters to protect the Engineering Institute."
"If another academician is kidnapped by the Academy of Sages, all your ancient martial arts manuals will be confiscated."
On the other end of the phone, Cheng Yuan, who was chatting with the butler, was instantly jolted awake upon hearing this: "Yes, Grandmaster! Absolutely not, I promise you!"
Ancient martial arts manuals were his lifeblood.
He could sell Cheng Jin if he wanted.
These words startled the deans.
What ancient?
"You said the teacher said I can't be hurt," Ying Zijin said calmly. "It seems the Academy of Sages made some kind of deal with him."
At this, the expressions of several academicians changed.
“I was right.” Ying Zijin nodded slightly. “Seniors, there’s no need to worry. I will bring the teacher out.”
She had given Dean Norman some self-defense medication to ensure he would be safe for the time being.
Just as the old academician was about to say something more, the girl was left with only her back to him.
Outside the research institute, Fu Yunshen was waiting by the car.
Upon seeing Ying Zijing emerge, he immediately sensed the oppressive atmosphere emanating from her.
It was chillingly cold.
The last time something like this happened was when Jiang Ran had his accident.
If it were just happening to her personally, she would never show any emotion.
Fu Yunshen pulled her hand: "Something happened?"
"Okay." Ying Zijing got into the car. "To the Sage's Abode, to save people."
Fu Yunshen immediately guessed it, his eyes darkening: "Let's go."
**
Meanwhile, at the Sage's House.
The sage who sent someone to "invite" Dean Norman was indeed a magician.
But he didn't intend to get rid of Dean Norman so soon.
This was the tower's suggestion.
"Why are you asking me to kidnap Norman now?" the magician asked, still somewhat disgruntled. "The election for the head of the Lyinger family just ended not long ago, and many people are watching me. Aren't you just exposing me directly?"
“Of course not.” Ta said casually, “He was just used to lure some people out so that Zhouyan and I could take action.”
The magician nodded, then frowned: "You're not talking about Ying Zijing, are you?"
He only knew how to concoct medicine; Yao Guang and the others were in charge of all the other operations.
“Yes, it’s her, and the eldest young master of the Yu family.” Ta flicked his clothes. “Also, the master’s return is imminent.”
The magician immediately became excited: "The master is coming back?!"
“Yes.” Ta shrugged. “Before the adults return, we must remove all obstacles that can be removed so that the adults don’t have to worry about such trivial matters.”
“Okay, no problem!” the magician readily agreed. “What other medicine do you need? I’ll make it right now.”
“Well, you continue with the medicine making. As for the Dean of the Engineering Academy, let Shaluo handle it.” Ta stood up. “She certainly won’t let go of the person who made her lose face. We need to conserve our strength.”
The magician readily agreed.
Tower smiled slightly, then left the Sage's Courtyard.
In another hall.
Sara sat on the throne, still holding the scepter, exuding an arrogant and domineering aura.
Dean Norman was pinned to a chair by the two knights and unable to move.
But he still had a relaxed expression on his face, showing no fear whatsoever.
"Norman, is it?" Sara tapped her fingers lightly on the throne. "You know why we invited you here, right?"
"Pah, I don't know," Dean Norman spat. "All I know is that you're all a bunch of narrow-minded frogs in a well!"
Over the years, the Academy of Sages has deliberately delayed the development of science and technology, killing countless scientific researchers.
Dean Norman had long anticipated that this day would also befall him.
He was also relieved.
Fortunately, he had already sent all the encrypted files to Ying Zijing.
At least scientific research can continue.
As long as the tradition continues, this path will never be broken.
He believes that in ten or a hundred years, all the blueprints will be realized.
"Good, you have guts." Instead of getting angry, Shaluo smiled and waved her hand lightly. "Since you have so much guts, let's break his hands first."
How can researchers conduct research without hands?
"Come on, let's unload it." Dean Norman tilted his head back. "I'm right here."
Shaluo sneered, "Just as arrogant as your disciple."
She leaned back on her throne and smiled disdainfully: "However, I always keep my word. You can replace your disciple, and I will not lay a hand on her again."
Dean Norman's expression changed slightly, but he remained fearless.
Sara waved her hand again: "Make your move."
Two knights immediately stepped forward, grabbed Dean Norman's wrists, and were about to break them.
However, they didn't have time to make a move.
"Buzz—!"
A powerful internal force attacked from behind and exploded in an instant.
"Bang! Bang!"
The two knights let out a scream and collapsed to the ground, unconscious.
Dean Norman opened his eyes and was momentarily stunned.
How come he's alright?
Shaluo's expression changed drastically, and she shouted sharply, "Who?!"
Who dared to trespass on her territory?
"I."
A cool, indifferent voice fell.
As soon as Shaluo looked up, she couldn't even see anyone clearly before everything went black.
A slap landed squarely on her face.
Ying Zijin showed no mercy whatsoever.
This slap carried internal force and was extremely powerful.
Caught off guard once again, Sara was sent flying backwards.
"Bang!"
It slammed heavily against the wall like a cannonball.
Even the sturdy Sage's Abode had fine cracks appearing in its walls.
Upon clearly seeing who had made the move, Dean Norman closed his eyes and then opened them again, confirming that he had opened them correctly.
His mouth gaped open in an "O" shape: "Wow, my disciple, you're really skilled."
Ying Zijin: "..."
Of the sages, she was most wary of the sage Star Yaoguang.
If Yao Guang controls and bewitches Dean Norman, things will be terrible.
But indeed, she shouldn't have worried too much about Dean Norman's mental state.
The old man was an optimist and could find joy even in hardship.
Shaluo was in pain all over.
She struggled to lift her head, her expression dazed for a few seconds.
This time, he finally recognized the figure before him as the girl who had been by Ling Mianxi's side that night.
Her pupils contracted sharply: "It's you!"
