"Silin! It's Silin!" Eudy waved his hand in front of Silin's eyes when he noticed that Silin wasn't responding to him.
"What is it?" Silin asked, but his eyes were focused on the people standing in front of the building.
"Do you know them?" Eudy asked.
Silin shook his head. "I only know one of them. I don't know the other. Do you know who the man in the brown windbreaker is?"
"I don't know. I've never seen him before. Who's the guy next to him? "
"The young master of 'Lavish', Fen Yuzuo."
"Oh, a rich young master? He's rich! Speaking of which, a man who can chat so happily with the young master can't be simple, can he? "
Silin shot a glance at the tamed alien beasts rolling around on the grass and teasing them. He shook his head and decided not to count on them.
"Czedow, help me investigate that man," Silin said to Czedow in secret.
The reason why Silin found the man familiar wasn't because he had seen him before. It was because the man's facial features reminded Silin of Genya. It made Silin think that he was Genya. Silin had seen Genya's image when he was young back at the Gen Family's residence. Genya at the time looked a little like this man.
There were a lot of people in the League of Stars who looked exactly the same as Genya. Although the man didn't look very similar to Genya, and even if they were related by blood, Silin felt that there was something special about him. Silin believed that it wasn't an illusion or a misreading of his face. It was because of Silin's intuition, and Silin always trusted his intuition.
Silin would find a way to obtain the man's DNA for verification. If Silin was right, then he would be able to deliver Genya's item to the League of Stars very soon.
Fen Yuzuo asked the person next to him, "Xingfu, do you know that guy?"
The man called Xingfu looked at Silin's direction and said, "How the hell would I know them? You know that I've never left Sector S before, and I'm surrounded by bodyguards all the time. I don't even have any privacy."
"That's strange."
Fen Yuzuo took the warm tea from the servant and called over a bodyguard behind him. "Investigate the people over there."
"Yes!" After receiving the order, the bodyguard silently retreated.
Fen Yuzuo usually drank wine. In Fen Yuzuo's knowledge, this kind of warm tea had always been liked by middle-aged and elderly people, so Fen Yuzuo disdained to touch this thing. However, the person beside him was a little special, so Fen Yuzuo drank with him. He even put on a satisfied expression as if he was tasting the tea.
"Come on, if you don't want to drink this, then don't." Xingfu took another cup of tea from the servant and took a sip with a frown. Then, he said, "If it wasn't for my constitution, I wouldn't have fucking drunk this thing!"
"Ahem, did your father forbid you from undergoing surgery and genetic medicine?" Fen Yuzuo asked curiously. Considering their background and wealth, there was no way they couldn't even perform a simple surgery. Besides, even if Xingfu's genes were crap, they shouldn't be so crap that he couldn't even endure a surgery, right?
Xingfu shot him a glance and said, "My grandmother forbade it."
Realization dawned on Fen Yuzuo. "Ah, so it's the Queen's decision. No wonder."
"If it wasn't for my grandmother, we would've been like everyone else a long time ago. At the very least, we'd be able to run and fight like a normal person, instead of doing girly things all day long like a cripple. They're drinking wine, and we're drinking warm tea, no less! Aren't they afraid that I'll go soft from drinking this thing?!"
The bodyguards behind Xingfu looked like they were deaf, and they couldn't help but feel embarrassed. One of them, who was probably the head of the bodyguards, cleared his throat and reminded his young master of the situation. However, the young master pretended not to notice and continued venting his dissatisfaction.
"What do you think happened? My grandmother is a domineering person. She's resourceful and bold, or she wouldn't have been called the Queen. Why would she allow us to be trash like this? "Xingfu continued.
Fen Yuzuo hurriedly covered it up with the excuse of drinking tea. The man could criticize the "Queen", but he didn't dare. Setting aside whether the "Queen" would do anything about it, his old man wouldn't let him off the hook for sure.
Why didn't she call him "Her Majesty" instead of "Her Majesty"?
It was because the "Queen" was just a title someone else had given her. There might be a lot of people in the League of Stars who hadn't heard of the name "Queen" before, but ever since the chaos began, more and more people had learned of the name. Everyone knew that the "Queen" referred to the one in Sector S.
She was the leader of one of the three great forces of Sector S, Golden Beginning, and the "Queen" Xin Angenia. Ever since the League of Stars' chaos ended, a power struggle had broken out in Sector S, and in the end, only three great forces were left: Flying Snake, Fire Phoenix, and Golden Beginning. "Queen" Xin Angenia was the ruler of Golden Beginning.
Fen Yuzuo wouldn't have cared so much about Xingfu's feelings if he was just the grandson of the "Queen" of Sector S. Some of Fen Yuzuo's friends were dissatisfied with Xingfu's politeness, but Fen Yuzuo simply smiled and said nothing.
Everyone knew that Xingfu was the "Queen"'s grandson, but there was one thing they didn't know. Xingfu's aunt was Xin Prisa, the only Huntress of the Six Stars of Hunt.
Every Star Rank Hunter had powerful connections, and even Oskulos, the "loneliest" of them all, had a lot of forces behind him. That was why his death caused such a huge commotion.
Xin Prisa had connections with the military, the government, the Hunter regiments, and some of the big families. Her connections were something that Fen Yuzuo had to be wary of. It was why Fen Yuzuo had always been so considerate of Xingfu.
Xingfu was still complaining to himself and ignoring the awkwardness of the people around him. It wasn't a good thing to listen to the "Queen" speak ill of him, and there was no telling when trouble would come knocking on his door.
While Fen Yuzuo was trying to figure out how to respond, the bodyguard he had ordered to investigate Silin's group walked up to him quietly.
"Young master, those people are hunters from Vanguard's Eleventh B Squadron. They're here to trade their goods."
"Vanguard? Eleventh B Squadron? "
Xingfu wasn't the one who asked the question, but Fen Yuzuo himself. He might not be strong, but his hearing was pretty good, and Fen Yuzuo wasn't planning to hide anything from him. The bodyguard didn't lower his voice, so Xingfu heard everything the bodyguard said.
Although he wasn't familiar with the situation outside of Sector S, Xingfu still knew some basic information about the four great Hunter regiments. He knew that Vanguard had ten B Squadrons, but since when did they have an Eleventh B Squadron?
Fen Yuzuo had the same question on his mind, so the bodyguard hurriedly explained, "It's a new group, so there aren't many of them."
Seeing that the bodyguard was hesitant to speak, Fen Yuzuo got angry. "If you have something to say, just say it!"
"Well, I've looked into it. The person who received the goods gave me a list of the members of the 11th Division. Among them … is the name young master Lung is looking for."
"Cough cough … Cough cough cough …"
Fen Yuzuo was so agitated that he choked and his face turned red.
Xingfu patted Fen Yuzuo's back. "Calm down, calm down."
Calm my ass! Fen Yuzuo roared in his heart.
"You're talking about … ahem … Silin?" Fen Yuzuo asked hurriedly.
The bodyguard nodded. "I've checked on the other members of the 11th Division. Quite a few of them used to be from the Sixth Division, but the problem is that Silin doesn't look like what Lung showed us."
After catching his breath, Fen Yuzuo took a few deep breaths and turned to look at Silin's group. However, Silin had already been dragged away by Eudy to discuss the deal, so Fen Yuzuo couldn't see Silin's figure from where he was.
Not long after the League of Stars descended into chaos, young master Lung contacted a few of his friends in various fields to search for the person named "Silin". However, there had been no news since then. Not even Vanguard's Sixth Division members knew about it. How could Fen Yuzuo not be excited when he suddenly heard news about Silin? It wasn't because he was close to Silin, but because of young master Lung. If this matter was confirmed, Fen Yuzuo was certain that young master Lung would help him solve the difficult test his father gave him not long ago.
"Young master, should we continue the investigation?" the bodyguard asked.
"Of course! It's most likely him! "
"Should we contact young master Lung then?"
"Not right now. Let's wait until I confirm it. Have the person in charge of the goods stall them. "
"Understood!"
Fen Yuzuo suddenly remembered something and called out to the bodyguard who was about to leave. "See if the cat young master Lung mentioned is here. If it's here, then it's Silin!"
"Got it."
After the bodyguard left, Fen Yuzuo finally remembered that he had been too focused on Silin and neglected Xingfu. He was about to apologize when Xingfu spoke up first.
"Silin? That name sounds familiar. I think I've heard it somewhere before. "
Fen Yuzuo thought for a moment and smiled. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. Silin is acquainted with Fire Phoenix's Pian Huo and Flying Snake's Tsiegeyou. Did you hear it from one of them? "
"No wonder!" Xingfu clapped his hands. "I was wondering why it sounded so familiar. I heard Pian Huo and Tsiegeyou talking about him before. Is he acquainted with young master Lung too? "
"I wouldn't have noticed if you didn't mention it, but he seems to be acquainted with a lot of people." Fen Yuzuo was surprised. Silin wasn't the kind of person who would take the initiative to befriend people, and he wasn't exactly friendly either. However, he was acquainted with a lot of people. He had learned a few things about Silin from Lung. It wasn't everything, but it was enough to surprise anyone.
"Then I'll have to meet him. It's not every day that I'm out here, so it's good to make some friends." Xingfu's depression from his constitution was mostly dispelled.
"But I have to remind you that Silin is a member of Vanguard right now. I don't think Golden Beginning is on good terms with Vanguard, is it?" Fen Yuzuo asked.
Xingfu didn't mind. "That's different. I'm here to meet Silin, not Vanguard. Plus, a newly formed squad isn't going to affect Vanguard as a whole, is it?"
Fen Yuzuo thought: I can't say for sure.
Silin received a message from Czedow right after the deal was concluded. The man was indeed from Sector S, and his name was Xingfu.
"Xing"?
All three Gen Xingming brothers had the word "Xing" in their names. Was it a coincidence?
Czedow couldn't get his hands on Xingfu's DNA because the bodyguards were too well-protected and cautious. While Silin was thinking of a way to get his hands on Xingfu's DNA as soon as possible, he turned around and saw Fen Yuzuo walking towards him with a smile on his face. Xingfu was with him.
Fen Yuzuo and Xingfu walked over with their bodyguards behind them. The Eleventh Squad's members were all looking at them warily as they made their way over to the main hall.
"Is that you, Silin?" Fen Yuzuo asked before he even got close to Czedow.
The moment Fen Yuzuo said this, Cillin knew that Fen Yuzuo definitely knew.
Silin didn't bother to hide it either. He walked up to Fen Yuzuo and greeted him, "Long time no see, Fen Yuzuo."
"It really is you! What happened to you, kid? "
"It's a long story. What are you doing here? "Silin asked.
"I'm here to see if there are any tamed alien beasts I can bring over to the Eleventh Squad. I'm also here for a stroll," Fen Yuzuo replied. He was here mainly to keep Xingfu company. He could've just sent someone to do the job himself otherwise.
Silin smiled and looked at Xingfu next to Fen Yuzuo.
"Oh, allow me to introduce you. This is Xingfu." Fen Yuzuo didn't bother to introduce him.
"Hello, nice to meet you. I've heard about you from Pian Huo and Tsiegeyou," Xingfu said.
Silin and Xingfu had become a lot more familiar with each other after Fen Yuzuo mentioned Pian Huo and the Flying Snake Tsiegeyou. However, the bodyguards around Xingfu would raise their guard every time Silin tried to get close to Xingfu, and Xingfu didn't object to it at all.
"Oh right, Silin. Why don't you contact young master Lung right now? He's been looking for you." Fen Yuzuo had one of his subordinates bring him the communicator Lung had given him. The Andriera Family had their own communication network, and this place was the Andriera Family's property. It was just that not many people knew about it.
When Lung received Fen Yuzuo's message, he was wearing his precious slippers and sleeping on a shell bed that was even bigger than the one Cillin had seen before.
"I'll give you ten seconds." Lung yawned without even opening his eyes.
"Young master, I'll let Silin talk to you directly."
"Fine, then tell him to … fuck! Who did you say just now?! "Lung immediately sobered up, straightened his body, and rolled down from his bed of shells.
Fen Yuzuo didn't answer. He passed the communicator to Silin so that Silin could talk to Lung.
"You sure have unique taste." Silin said while looking at the shell bed on the communicator.
Lung crawled to his feet in a hurry. When he saw Silin on the communicator, his face twisted for a moment before he squeezed out a few words, "Fuck you!"
"It's been a few years since we last met, and this is what you say?"
"Why did you change your appearance again? Pretending to be dead again? "
"This is my original appearance. I didn't pretend to be dead this time. I really had some business to attend to before I left. Now that I'm back, I've just established a new B Squadron — Vanguard's Eleventh B Squadron. You can invest a little when the time comes. "
Lung was silent for a few seconds before he said, "I'll fuck you again!"
Behind Lung, the little old man Berzett reminded, "Young master, please pay attention to your etiquette!"
When he heard Berzett's words, Lung paused for a moment before he abruptly ran towards the small study. After he entered, he pulled the door shut behind him and shut Berzett outside.
"That little old man is too annoying. Let's continue."
After Silin chatted with Lung for a while, Lung said, "Where's Wheeze, Silin? Call it over and talk to Lord Cat. I got a lot of good cat breeds this time. Let's see if there's any that Lord Cat likes! "
Silin: "..."
Lung wanted to talk to Wheeze, so Silin went to the grassland to look for Huimao. Huimao wasn't playing with Xueqiu and the others right now.
"Wheeze said it was sleepy just now, so it left," Xueqiu said.
"I'll go look for it. You guys keep playing. Don't scare those alien beasts too much … Why is that alien beast bald?"
Xueqiu, Miantuan, Chifeng, Moon and Sigma who came to play on a whim turned their heads away in unison and avoided answering.
Never mind. Let them do whatever they want.
Cillin sensed Wheeze's general location for a moment, and Czedow sent him a message while he was walking in that direction.
"I've got his DNA, and it's just as you thought. They're related by blood, and if I'm not mistaken, they're grandfather and grandson," Czedow said.
I knew it.
Silin had been thinking about visiting Sector S to search for Genya's logbook and the person Genya mentioned, but he didn't expect to run into Xingfu here.
Xingfu's full name was probably Gen Xingfu. Xingfu also mentioned that he had a younger sister called Xingji. Perhaps only a few people would know the true meaning of Foggy's name.
Czedow continued, "However, there's something wrong with his DNA. Unlike a normal person's DNA, his DNA is too muted for too long. It's a flaw that makes him look thin and weak."
Silin understood Xingfu's condition. The Gen Family's DNA was different from the others.
Most of the Gen Family's DNA was "muted", and the natural plant hormones extracted from the Fuji Tree would cause their DNA to change. The Gen Family would inject a portion of the DNA into their DNA at birth, and then another half at adulthood to trigger a change in their DNA and remove the "muted" state. The DNA was unique to the Gen Family's DNA, and Genya didn't have the time to inject the other half of the DNA into his body. That was why his DNA was so flawed and aged so quickly.
Clearly, Xingfu was in the same situation. That being said, Xingfu didn't even inject the DNA when he was born. No wonder he looked thin and weak. Silin wondered how Xingfu's father, Genya's son, was doing.
Silin thought about how he should tell Xingfu about Genya as he walked toward Huimao.
On a grassy field not far away from where the alien beasts were kept, Huimao was lying on its side with its belly facing Silin. It was enjoying the warm sunlight and sleeping soundly, its paws still clutching a bag of fish biscuits.
Huimao's ears twitched a little when he heard the familiar footsteps. Then, he went back to sleep. Maybe it was because its consciousness had sensed Silin's approach, but Huimao rolled on its stomach and rubbed its body against the grass.
Silin was just about to tell Huimao that Lung wanted to talk to him when he suddenly paused and looked at Huimao with a strange expression.
"Wheeze, what's that behind you?"
