There's such a good thing? "
Meng Chao was delighted.
This housing quota could be considered to have solved his urgent need.
Ever since he woke up, he had been thinking about buying a house and moving.
He had been unwilling to move out of Blessed Heavenly Garden because the defense system in the old residential area was rather outdated and broken. There were no powerful people among the neighbors either, so he was worried that the old and weak would not be able to handle the monsters when they attacked.
But as he worked together with Zhao Feixuan and turned Blessed Heavenly Garden into a demonstration residential area with a fully upgraded defense system, the defense of Blessed Heavenly Garden increased by leaps and bounds. It could be said that it had reached the standard of a normal commercial residential area.
And there was a high possibility that he would be targeted by the abnormal beasts.
If the exotic beasts launched an attack on Blessed Heavenly Garden similar to what happened to Noble Descent Hotel, spraying large amounts of zombie virus and Blood Flower spores, they wouldn't be protecting their neighbors, but dragging them down instead. Their good intentions would be ruined.
But buying a house and moving was a major matter.
Meng Chao had used his achievements last year to get the public renting house that Granny Wang used to live in.
If he wanted to change houses in such a short period of time, he could only buy a very expensive commercial residential area.
But even a high-end commercial residential area like Tiancheng Beautiful Garden had cases of pets killing people, which meant that the residential area was a chaotic place, and there were security loopholes.
And if he wanted to upgrade it to a higher level, the price of a mansion like Dragon City No.1 would be too high.
After all, Meng Chao had just awakened to supernatural abilities.
Superstar had taken over two companies like a snake trying to swallow an elephant, and it had used up most of its cash flow.
Naturally, he could not be like Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu and spend a lot of money to live in Dragon City No.1.
Besides, as the club leader of the Broken Star Club, he often participated in public welfare activities, and he agreed with the ideals of the Home Party. He did not want to distance himself from the normal citizens because of his status as a superhuman. He could forget about Dragon City No.1. In any case, if he could not stop the apocalypse, both Dragon City No.1 and Blessed Heavenly Garden would be reduced to ashes.
Nie Chenglong's suggestion struck a chord in his heart.
The houses built with the funds from the abnormal beast research department were basically the same as a family compound.
His neighbors were all investigators who had fought against monsters for years, so their safety was guaranteed. It also sounded rather low-key, and the market price was 20% off. There was nothing to say about the price-quality ratio. If his parents and sister moved in, he would be much more at ease while he trained and fought outside.
The only problem was that if he really stayed in a building built with funds from the abnormal beast research department, he would be branded as a member of the abnormal beast research department.
Perhaps this was also Nie Chenglong's purpose — seeing that he was unwilling to become an official investigator, he used this method to trap him.
His family was already living in the quarters of the investigation bureau. If other enterprises, institutions, and paramilitary organizations were to recruit him tomorrow, such as the Adjudicator Court, and invite him to be an 'Adjudicator', he would definitely hesitate for a moment, right?
However, when he thought about it carefully, his relationship with the abnormal beast research department was not a secret in the field. For the sake of his family's safety, there was no need for him to be too conflicted.
"Then it would be impolite of me to refuse."
Meng Chao thanked Nie Chenglong and Ye Xiaoxing repeatedly.
The two of them cheerfully expressed that this was a critical period. It was highly possible that the abnormal beasts would target all the investigators and their families, planning to kidnap, assassinate, bewitch, brainwash, poison, and so on.
Therefore, Nie Chenglong and Ye Xiaoxing settled their families in the building.
This meant that they would be neighbors from now on, and they should help each other out. There was no need for them to thank each other.
Because of it, their relationship became even more harmonious. After chatting for a while, the two leaders bade farewell. Meng Chao also had to go through the discharge procedures and go home to report the good news.
At that moment, Ye Xiaoxing received a message.
Once he read it, he said to Meng Chao, [If you're not in a hurry to go back, why don't you go to the affiliated hospital of Medical University? Professor Lu Tianxing has woken up, and he heard that you're the benefactor of him and many other transmigration experts, so he wants to thank you in person.
[Professor Lu is a Deity Realm superhuman. His gratitude will bring immeasurable benefits to your cultivation.
"Also, didn't you say that you felt that something was off? Perfect timing, I'll make some arrangements. After you visit Professor Lu, you can go to the affiliated hospital of Medical University for a full body checkup. That's the best general hospital in Dragon City."
It was related to him transmigrating back to Earth.
Meng Chao agreed to it happily.
"By the way, if you go to Professor Lu's place, you might run into a lot of the leaders of the Home Party, the core members of Blue Home, and even the politicians of the Survival Committee. I know that you've been close to them for some time. You saved many of them during the battle at Noble Descent Hotel, so they will naturally regard you in a higher light."
Ye Xiaoxing thought about it and said, "Meng Chao, how do you think Blue Home should develop in the future?"
Meng Chao thought about it and said, "Captain, are you saying …"
"I'm not saying anything. I already told you that the abnormal beast research department is only in charge of capturing highly intelligent monsters and humans who have been brainwashed by them. The conflict between the Colonization Party and the Home Party, the fight between the nine great cultivation families and the small and medium-sized enterprises, offensive projects like the new armored airship, the project to fully upgrade the defense system in the residential areas, and the disagreement over the budget … All of these have nothing to do with us."
Ye Xiaoxing paused for a moment before he said, "Speaking of which, Blue Home has gathered a lot of owners of small and medium-sized enterprises as well as middle-grade and low-grade superhumans who are displeased with the nine great cultivation families. During the incident at Noble Descent Hotel, they were all victims, and we managed to dig out a lot of people who are related to the nine great cultivation families through Zhou Tianshui.
"These people might not know that they've been used by the abnormal beasts.
"But they harbor great animosity toward the Home Party. In fact, they even took the risk and turned their animosity into crimes. This is also a fact.
"Now, we have to dig out all the people who have turned into the abnormal beasts' puppets, whether it was intentional or not. We have to kill them all, but we also have to pay attention to placating and controlling the emotions of the Blue Home members. We can't let them use this as a pretext to cause trouble and deepen the rift between the Home Party and the Colonization Party. We can't let them bury their displeasure and suspicion in their stomachs so that the abnormal beasts can take advantage of them again and cause a new disaster.
"From the standpoint of the abnormal beast research department, we're happy to see Blue Home continue developing legally, for the public good, and in an orderly manner so that we can inject brand new ideals and energy into the Survival Committee. But we can't tolerate people like Lin Chuan, Gao Ye, and Zhou Tianshui appearing in Blue Home again.
"Since you have a pretty good relationship with quite a number of the core members of Blue Home and even saved a lot of the Home Party's lives, if you have time, you should keep in contact with them. I remember that they even invited you to become the thirteenth committee member of Blue Home at that time, right?"
Meng Chao's mind raced, and he asked, "Why? Does the department support me becoming a committee member of Blue Home?"
"Since you're not an official investigator of the department, we can't talk about whether we support or oppose it. This is your freedom!"
Ye Xiaoxing said with a smile. "But I will definitely support it. Over the past half a century of development in Dragon City, there have been results, but there have also been problems. The problems have turned into organizations of various sizes. If we don't solve the root of the problem and just destroy the organizations on the surface, we won't be treating the symptoms but not the root of the problem.
"Since we can't solve the problem for the time being, organizations like Blue Home and the Broken Star Club will eventually appear. It's much better to have them in the hands of people like you who are capable, care about the overall situation, and are loyal to Dragon City than to have them in the hands of people like us who know nothing about them, don't you think?"
Meng Chao thought about Ye Xiaoxing's words carefully.
An hour later, he appeared in the hall of the Special Inpatient Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Medical University.
On the way there, he had already understood Professor Lu's situation.
He was the best transmigration expert in Dragon City, and there were no major problems with his body.
But his brain had suffered an incredibly fierce mental attack from the Demonic Abyss Eye.
After all, he was a Deity Realm superhuman.
No matter how negligent he was in training his fighting strength, he could use simple and crude methods like the surge of his brain waves to create a mental storm to instantly paralyze the mental connection between hundreds of monsters and the Demonic Abyss Eye.
Hence, the Demonic Abyss Eye had actually been lurking under the elevator shaft that night and waiting for Professor Lu to fall.
When Professor Lu was dragged into the elevator shaft, he was immediately subjected to its strongest mental attack.
He was caught off guard, which was why he fell unconscious and was at the mercy of the Demonic Abyss Eye.
But to destroy Professor Lu's mental walls, the Demonic Abyss Eye had used up a lot of spirit energy and mental power. That was why it could not control Gao Ye in the end, and Meng Chao had taken advantage of the situation.
From this angle, Meng Chao was not the one who saved Professor Lu.
They had saved each other.
If Professor Lu had not helped Meng Chao deplete most of the Supernatural Entity's mental power beforehand, Meng Chao would have been completely digested and absorbed by the Demonic Abyss Eye.
Now, Professor Lu had regained consciousness. His vitality magnetic field had gradually stabilized, and he had reached the standard for receiving guests.
The first guest he wanted to meet was Meng Chao.
However, before Meng Chao could see Professor Lu, he was hugged by a person who was as passionate as fire.
It was Zhao Feixuan.
He was one of the ten great lost people in Dragon City in Meng Chao's previous life, but at that moment, he was glowing and beaming with joy.
When he saw Meng Chao, he looked like he was about to cry.
But when he thought about it, it made sense. If Meng Chao had not taken action in time, his wife and children would have died.
He would have turned into a high-calorie nutritional fluid for the Demonic Abyss Eye, and his family of four would have been reunited in hell.
Now, since they were born prematurely, the two children were really weak and were under observation in the neonatal department of the hospital affiliated to Medical University.
But no matter what, their parents were superhumans, and the children's foundations were pretty good. After a few days of rest, they could be discharged and live like normal children.
Zhao Feixuan treated his wife and children as more important than the entire world.
He scratched his head and could not think of how he should thank Meng Chao.
