Chapter 24 Preparation Plan  Chapter 24 Preparation Plan

  Lin Yi flipped through the communication information page by page, his expression becoming more and more solemn.

  "These communications...are they the source of the outbreak?"

  Takashiro Soichiro nodded and said in a deep voice, "That's right. These communications came from a ship conducting archaeological research in Antarctica. After the crew came into contact with the ancient corpse, they were infected one after another and turned into terrible infected people. The ship eventually lost control, and the government found a way to transport it to the vicinity of the Sea of ​​Japan."

  "What is the current situation of the ship? Is there any further news?" Lin Yi asked. He hoped to learn more details about the disaster.

  Takashiro Soichiro sighed and said, "After the ship was transported back to Japan, the government took emergency measures and blocked it off in a specific area. However, the number of infected people was too large, and their strength was far beyond that of ordinary people. The military was unable to control the situation at all."

  "Where?"

  "Tokyo Bay."

  Obviously, the Japanese government did not pay enough attention to the warning message from the research ship.

  The information sent from the ship was like lightning streaking through the night sky, attracting the attention of all the top government officials.

  In their eyes, the virus outbreak on the ship is just a small stumbling block that cannot stop them from moving firmly towards their dream of immortality.

  This blind enthusiasm for immortality has caused the top leaders of the Japanese government to teeter on the edge of sanity.

  Regardless of the possible disastrous consequences, they only wanted to bring the secrets on the ship back home to contribute to their dream of immortality.

  After the research ship was towed back, the virus spread as rapidly and violently as a wild horse that had broken free from its reins.

  The Japanese government obviously went too far in this adventure. Not only did they fail to obtain the coveted resources for immortality, but they also triggered an uncontrollable disaster.

  Lin Yi gently placed the document in his hand on the table and pushed it towards Takagi Soichiro who was sitting opposite him. His fingers tapped lightly on the table, as if playing a silent piece of music, while his mind was quickly weaving the next plan.

  "Master Gaocheng, I have a favor to ask of you. I wonder if I can get your help?" Lin Yi's tone was sincere.

  Gao Cheng Soichiro slowly raised his head, his deep eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. He stared at Lin Yi with a bit of inquiry on his face. He nodded slightly, signaling Lin Yi to continue.

  "I would like to use your government's helicopter to take me to Tokyo Bay."

  When Takagi Soichiro heard this, the teacup in his hand trembled slightly, and the tea swayed gently at the rim of the cup, but did not drip.

  He put down the teacup and looked at Lin Yi again, as if he wanted to read more information from his eyes.

  "Mr. Lin, can you tell me what is the purpose of your trip to Tokyo Bay?" There was a hint of caution and curiosity in Takagi Soichiro's tone.

  "Nothing, just preparing to take a look at the ancient corpse, and if possible, to send him back to where he should be."

  After hearing Lin Yi's answer, Takagi Soichiro's eyes flashed with surprise.

  He obviously did not expect that Lin Yi's purpose would be so simple, and not like those politicians, pursuing immortality.

  After a moment's silence, Takagi Soichiro seemed to be thinking about Lin Yi's request, and then nodded.

  "The day after tomorrow. The day after tomorrow, a group of people from my side will be transporting supplies to Tokyo. I will arrange a helicopter to take you there."

  After leaving the reception room, Lin Yi took a deep breath of fresh air, then started walking out of the villa.

  He had a clear goal in mind, which was to redeem [Adrenaline] as soon as possible and be fully prepared for the upcoming trip to Tokyo Bay.

  Facing the unknown ancient corpse, Lin Yi must be fully prepared, and [adrenaline] is undoubtedly an important bargaining chip to increase his chances of survival.

  When Lin Yi walked to the main gate of the manor, two security guards armed with samurai swords immediately blocked his way.  

  "Please stay, sir." One of the security guards said in a serious tone, "There are infected people everywhere outside the manor now. It is very dangerous. Please do not act rashly."

  Another security guard also recognized Lin Yi. He remembered that Lin Yi came back with Takagi Saya, so he naturally thought that Lin Yi was a student of Fujimi Academy.

  He looked at Lin Yi and said in confusion: "Young man, you don't look like an impulsive person. Why do you want to risk your life to go out? It's best for you to stay in the manor and ensure your safety."

  Just as Lin Yi was explaining to the security personnel of the manor, Takagi Yuriko appeared at the right time.

  She walked gracefully to the few people and helped Lin Yi out of the predicament with a smile.

  "Let him out." Takagi Yuriko's voice was soft but powerful, and the two security guards immediately nodded in agreement.

  "Yes, Lady Yuriko." They responded respectfully and then made way for Lin Yi.

  After Lin Yi nodded to thank Takagi Yuriko, he walked out of the manor's gate.

  Looking at Lin Yi's departing back, Takagi Yuriko sighed softly.

  She had already learned from Takagi Soichiro about Lin Yi's intention and purpose, and she spoke highly of the young man's strength and wisdom.

  In her opinion, Lin Yi is a rare talent. If he can stay in Takagi Saya's team, it will undoubtedly provide great help to their survival and fighting.

  However, Lin Yi is about to go to Tokyo Bay, which also means that he will no longer stay with Takagi Saya and others.

  Walking down the winding mountain road of the manor, Lin Yi discovered that there were a large number of armed personnel patrolling the outskirts of the manor.

  Their presence ensured the safety of the manor, but also made it difficult for Lin Yi to search for the infected.

  So, Lin Yi decided to go further. He walked past the border of the manor and went down until he arrived at the town at the foot of the mountain.

  On the streets of the town, a dozen infected people were wandering around a burning car.

  The blazing flames illuminated the dim surroundings and also revealed the hideous faces of the infected.

  Judging from the wreckage of the car, a fierce chase had taken place here. A survivor tried to escape by car, but was eventually surrounded by the infected, and the car was destroyed and the survivor died.

  Lin Yi stood in the distance, took a deep breath, and then whistled.

  The whistle immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding infected people, and they all turned their heads and looked in the direction of Lin Yi.

  Seeing that the infected person had been attracted, Lin Yi drew out the Black Abyss Sword.

  This sword has accompanied him through several battles. At this moment, the sword body is covered with gaps and its durability has dropped to 8 points.

  Lin Yi knew that the sword had very little life left. Once its durability dropped to 0, it would probably shatter in battle.

  After killing the infected people who surrounded them one by one, a plain white treasure chest unexpectedly emerged from the body of one of the infected people.

  This discovery was undoubtedly an unexpected surprise for Lin Yi.

  Without any hesitation, Lin Yi hurried forward and put the treasure chest into his personal space.

  　Finally signed the contract.
