Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 242: Narrow Escape

    

y got an empty number reply, which made her so angry that she smashed her phone.She must have known! Otherwise, she wouldn't be retaliating against me like this!Yu Biyao is certain that she and Gao Ya...It was like that saying, "Enemies meet on narrow roads." Wu Yishan's face flashed with a subtle expression before he smiled and asked:

“Lián yī, how are you prepared”

"General Wu, hello, I'm all ready."

The ripples replied calmly and respectfully, with a serene expression, just as one would when meeting an elder on the road who asks a question.

Wu Yishan was getting a little annoyed, about to speak when Wu Lianbo, standing beside him, tugged at his sleeve and said:

"Father, this is my first time meeting my brother. Can I go say hello"

Wu Yishan turned his head and looked at his youngest son, whose eyes were filled with longing. In an instant, his anger dissipated, and he smiled and said:

"Good"

But before she could finish, Du Zifeng interrupted her.

"General Wu, do I need to remind you Lian Yi is now part of our Du family. He has the surname Du. You gave guardianship to my father for this illegitimate son, and a week ago, you even signed an agreement to change his surname in order to get him admitted with a recommendation quota. Now you're pretending to introduce them, who are you trying to disgust Lian Yi or our Du family"

Du Zifeng's voice wasn't loud or soft, just right for those around him to hear clearly. Everyone seemed eager to get closer and slow down their pace, determined to be at the front line of this drama. Some even started live streaming it.

The ripples on the side gave Du Zifeng a thumbs up in her heart, this combat power is really fierce.

The Wu family, father and son, immediately changed color. Wu Yishan frowned unpleasantly at Du Zifeng, just about to speak when he was interrupted again.

Your nostrils shouldn't be so wide, and your exhaling shouldn't be so rough. It displeases me, you know Your Fifth Army will be the last to be equipped with third-generation mechs!

Du Zi Feng said in a bland tone.

"You're threatening me!"

"That's right! A blatant threat. Unless you have the ability to fight without my mechs, I can't threaten you."

Du Zi Feng shrugged.

As long as Wu Yishan dared to say no, Du Zifeng would immediately arrange for the severance of all cooperation with the Fifth Army Group. So he just looked at Wu Yishan faintly, waiting for his answer.

Wu Yishan's temples throbbed with anger, but he knew that Du Zifeng had a stubborn personality. Once he said something, the other party would definitely be able to do it. He calmed his anger and then addressed Lian Yi, whose face remained impassive:

"Let's clear the air, there seems to be some misunderstanding between us. I'll explain everything when we meet again."

After finishing his words, he turned and walked into the academy. Wu Lianbo, however, politely said, "Wait a moment:"

Uncle Du, goodbye! Lian Yi, goodbye!

Then he went after Wu Yishan.

Du Zi Feng let out a cold snort, touched his nose bridge, and put on a pair of cool sunglasses. He said to Lian Yi:

"Come on! I'll take you to the advanced placement test!"

"Okay."

Ripple is dressed in the standard gentlemanly attire today, a white shirt, gray trousers, and beige windbreaker. Standing next to Du Zi Feng, anyone who sees them would think they are father and son.

Only those who have eaten the melons know, that delicate-looking young boy is General Wu's own son.

The scene of their first encounter has already been rapidly transmitted and disseminated through the network.

Unlike Du Zi Feng who was so flamboyant and wore sunglasses, Lian Yi wasn't as showy. She just strode forward with her long legs, following her uncle in the opposite direction of Wu Yishan.

At this time, the sound of a millstone grinding reached her ears.

"That system just tried to take advantage of the situation and attack your neural network. Luckily, I stopped it."

The ripples' steps paused only for a moment, then continued forward, conversing with the millstone as it walked:

"It seems this system is quite capable. Without any physical contact, it already sensed my neural implant."

However, his energy was clearly insufficient, so he failed to break through the firewall of the intelligent brain.

"Did that awful system take the opportunity to extract my qualifications"

"No, it's too short a time for it to establish a connection."

The stone mill immediately gave the answer.

"When I get back, I'll have Du Zifeng upgrade my brain chip. That dog won't be able to find out about me through the chip."

Lian Yi narrowed her eyes and said.

"That's up to you! I'm only responsible for monitoring that system, and I'll let you know if anything happens."

Understood!

After ending their conversation, the two arrived at the testing location. The spacious classroom was packed with almost every notable teacher from the entire military academy.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for the delay. I just encountered a barking dog on my way here that blocked my path."

Du Zifeng took off his sunglasses and spoke very arrogantly.

All the teachers present here, which one of them doesn't know about that video of someone ranting at people on only one side at the entrance to the academy They have first-hand material, the kind that hasn't been forwarded.

They mainly came to see Du Hongtu, but they didn't expect to eat such a big melon. Only then did they realize that this child was the one abandoned by General Wu. However, according to the test data passed on by Du Zifeng, this child is a once-in-a-century genius.

"Zi Feng, is Du Hongtu Wu Lianyi"

A black-haired girl the same age as Du Zifeng asked with a smile.

"Yes, didn't you guys take a close look at the information I sent"

They could only see the names, SSS-level psychic power, ancient martial arts level seven, the rest were probably not even glanced at. Today they all came to snatch people eagerly.

The woman shrugged and said, "I teach botany. There's no way I would rob anyone. My class is a required course, so everyone takes it regardless of their teacher. I'm just here to join in the fun."

"Siya is right, but that doesn't stop us from recruiting talented people. Come on! Let's begin now."

The vice dean, a shrewd old man, smiled and said.

Immediately, ripples was arranged at a table, facing a transparent screen.

Since you're aiming to directly enter the third grade, we need to first assess your theoretical knowledge. This is a comprehensive exam that needs to be completed within two hours. The accuracy rate must be above ninety percent to proceed to the next round of testing. Otherwise, no matter how talented you are, you'll have to start from the beginning.

"I understand."

Ripple nodded, and the first question then appeared on the screen.

On the other side, Wu Yishan was a bit annoyed, but he insisted that his choice was right. After adjusting his expression, he took Wu Lianbo to undergo an admission test.

Wu Lianbo met his half-brother for the first time today. He was completely different from what he had imagined, timid and inferior. The other person was handsome and elegant enough, with an air about him that Wu Lianbo couldn't compare to.

And the other party looked at their father with indifference, truly treating him as a stranger. That's why their father was so angry.

From the moment they met to when they parted ways, the other person only glanced at him. But their gaze was the same as looking at a stranger, their presence didn't stir any emotion in them. This left him somewhat annoyed.

Wu Lianbo's system in his brain was also running at high speed. That Qi Yunzi was indeed arrogant capital, much stronger than its current parasite. He wanted to hack into the other party's intelligent brain, but he didn't succeed.

The system felt something was amiss, but couldn't pinpoint the reason. It hadn't detected any energy fluctuations on the Child of Fortune, otherwise it would have forcefully broken through the Ripple's AI. I can have a good night's sleep.""Excuse me, sister. My sister-in-law is a little bit temperamental and she's been feeling unwell lately, so she might be acting a bit difficult. Please bear with her....
