Chapter 1736: Remote Control

"It's nothing, nothing."The old man shook his head, his gaze settling on the two of them. "Why have you come here? This place is very dangerous."

Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue exchanged a glance, then briefly recounted the events to the old man. After hearing them, the old man's expression shifted several times before he let out a long sigh and said, "It seems this is the will of Heaven."

"What did you say?"Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue asked in unison.

"Heh."The old man smiled faintly and said, "Follow me."

He pushed aside a seemingly ordinary wall, and a hidden room immediately appeared before the three of them. The room was large, big enough to be a basketball court. It was filled with various strange instruments and equipment, and some screens displayed data that Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue could not understand.

"Dad, this is..."Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue asked in unison.

"This is my laboratory."The old man took a deep breath and said, "Actually, I am your uncle, and also the guardian of this country."

"What?"Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue were both stunned.

"Yes."The old man nodded, found a chair to sit on, and began to tell the story of the secret organization hidden beneath Yanjing City and the mystery of their family's origins.

It turned out that many unknown things truly existed in this world. Many nations had guardians who silently protected humanity from the ravages of pests. And the guardian of Yanjing was Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue's family. Their mission was to protect the peace of Yanjing, while also maintaining peace and stability across the world.

This organization had existed for many years, even traceable back several centuries. Their goal was to prevent those alien creatures from invading Earth. In history, they had successfully repelled the attacks of those alien creatures more than once. However, in recent years, those alien creatures had become increasingly cunning, even using some of the Yixiehei Gang organizations of humanity to achieve their goals. This left Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue very confused, because the kidnappings and attacks they had encountered over the past year were likely due to this reason.

"So, what should we do now?"Zhao Yang asked.

"We must stop the conspiracy of that mysterious force."Zhao Ruoxue said firmly.

"Good."The old man nodded. He took a device resembling a mobile phone from a drawer. However, it was not a mobile phone, but a communicator capable of contacting alien creatures. After the old man entered a string of codes, a projection resembling a map appeared. On the map, Jingcheng was marked with many red dots. And the largest red dot was the abandoned warehouse in the southern suburbs.

"It seems they have already started their actions."The old man said faintly. "We must arrive there before them."

"But."Zhao Yang and Zhao Ruoxue shouted in unison, "How do we get there? If we drive now, it will take at least half an hour to get there."

"You need not worry about that."The old man smiled slightly and took three helmet-like objects from the laboratory, handing them to them. "These are teleportation helmets; they can transport you instantly to any place you wish to go."
