Chapter 118: Chapter 118
Upon hearing the horn of the giant transport vehicle, the orphanage gate quickly opened.
Vero Belinda and Daisy Wendy led a large group of orphanage staff out.
When they saw the giant transport vehicle, a flicker of shock appeared in their eyes.
Wasn't this a bit too much? How long would it take to eat all this?
After the initial shock, the delighted group boarded the cargo hold of the giant transport vehicle and began unloading the food supplies.
Fortunately, everyone present was a Superhuman, so handling this amount of food wasn't too heavy a burden for the orphanage staff.
Loren, hidden in the darkness, silently watched this scene without making a sound. He wasn't good at facing the kindness of others, so he chose to avoid it.
Soon, a mountain of food supplies piled up at the orphanage entrance.
Facing this mountain of food, as everyone was puzzling over how to move it, Daisy Wendy stepped forward alone. She placed her hand on the food mountain and activated her ability.
After a flash of light, the mountain of food in front of them vanished without a trace.
At that moment, the underground warehouse of the orphanage instantly gained over a hundred tons of food and meat out of thin air.
The food problem was solved!
After Daisy Wendy finished moving everything with her spatial ability, Loren's calm voice came from the darkness not far from the orphanage entrance.
"You continue protecting the orphanage. I'll go deal with the Viper Gang."
Daisy Wendy nodded in the direction of the voice from the darkness, indicating she understood.
Then, she added a reminder to Loren in the darkness:
"Be careful. Councilor Osman hasn't made a move against the orphanage yet. There might be some scheme."
"Okay," Loren's voice came again from the darkness.
Following that, the sound of wings unfurling came from the darkness, soon accompanied by a gust of wind.
Daisy Wendy gazed into the direction of the darkness and murmured softly:
"Are you embarrassed to face everyone's gratitude?"
You, who came from the Rotten Star, have you reached the point where you don't want to accept others' thanks?
Such a contradiction you are... what is your heart truly like...
Then, Daisy Wendy shook her head with a complicated expression and turned to walk back into the brightly lit orphanage.
Thanks to the Urban Management Section of the Energy Department, shortly after Loren left at noon, they quickly reconnected the orphanage's energy pipelines.
Natural gas, water, electricity, and internet were all restored.
Now, with the food Loren had transported back, the orphanage was no different from normal and could operate regularly.
Thus, only one problem remained for the orphanage—the covetous gaze of Councilor Osman.
And this was the biggest trouble the orphanage had to face...
Flying through the night sky of Jadeite Main City, Loren unconsciously looked down at the beautiful cityscape below.
"Master, what are you thinking about?"
Perhaps sensing Loren's change in mood, Raven's voice timely sounded in Loren's mind again.
"I'm thinking about what I need to advance to the next rank again," Loren answered Raven's question in his mind.
My humanity and reason seem to have returned quite a bit...
It must be said, Annie Bell, that Legendary Psychic, lives up to her great reputation. She truly is an excellent psychologist.
After Loren fully implemented the advice she gave, he clearly felt the return of his reason and humanity.
Now, Loren had started considering his advancement problem again.
"Master, perhaps after stabilizing for a while longer, your mental state will improve further."
As the entity constantly in an attached state, Raven was the clearest at perceiving Loren's changes.
Loren's symptoms had lessened significantly.
In fact, when Loren chose to spare the three Law Enforcement Department members at dusk, Raven could distinctly feel that Loren's reason had returned.
Hearing Raven's advice, Loren didn't respond further. Instead, he silently admired the night view of the city below, lost in thought.
After a while, Loren stopped this meaningless human pastime.
Slacking off is over... time to get down to business...
Loren took out his portable computer from the "Crimson Tear" and contacted someone.
"Agent Norton, have you extracted information from that high-rank assassin's mouth?"
After waiting thirty seconds, a reply came on the portable computer screen.
"The assassin comes from the Main City of the Dusk Star Domain. He's one of the high-rank assassins secretly trained by Marquis Oren Hunter. This guy was actually on his first assassination mission, no experience at all."
"Since the intelligence you leaked in the Dusk Star Domain was only Third Rank, that Marquis Hunter sent this inexperienced guy, hoping Mr. Loren could give him some practice."
"And the reason for assassinating me? Is it because I leaked information about Resource Planet 17?" Loren typed another line on the screen.
Marquis Hunter, huh? So it's a Marquis... then your family must have accumulated many Spirit Stones...
Loren silently noted down this name.
"Not just that. Also because you killed that person named Adrian, the leader of the Wild Dog Gang. He was also a subordinate of that Marquis Hunter."
Abel Norton gave another clear answer.
Should I say, as expected of the Security Bureau? Captured in the morning, and by evening they've extracted everything... Loren glanced at the answer on the screen and silently marveled in his heart.
Immediately, Loren recalled the leader of the Wild Dog Gang in his mind.
That spatial Psychic who didn't properly develop his own ability but instead went to play with Mecha... so he was Marquis Hunter's subordinate...
For that Marquis to send a Seventh Rank assassin to kill me, it seems you held a high position in his heart...
After learning the reason for the assassination attempt, Loren shook his head, clearing the extra thoughts from his mind.
Then, Loren typed the question he truly wanted to know on the portable computer screen.
"Agent Norton, do you know where the Viper Gang's base is?"
After waiting a minute, Abel Norton sent an address to the screen of Loren's computer.
"The abandoned warehouse at 67 Iris Street."
"Thank you for the information, Agent Norton," Loren typed his gratitude on the screen.
"Actually, the intelligence provided by that high-rank assassin could help me climb two more ranks in my Security Bureau position."
"After all, credit involving a landed Marquis is no small matter."
"Pleasure doing business, Mr. Loren."
Loren stared at the other party's reply on the portable computer and revealed an inscrutable smile.
Marquis Hunter, it seems your enemies aren't just me...
Then, Loren closed the conversation page with Abel Norton and opened a mapping software on the portable computer.
He entered "67 Iris Street, Jadeite Main City" into the mapping software. After getting the exact location of the Viper Gang,
Loren gave a powerful flap of the black wings on his back, and his figure vanished from the night sky...
