Chapter 672: Could it be that Lei Na is my destined one?

When Zhang Jie, holding the information he had investigated, sought out those Final Overseers, they then realized what dereliction of duty they had committed back then actually brought about.

Do those Forbidden Permits know? Maybe they know, maybe they don't, maybe they don't care at all; now pursuing responsibility for the past is utterly meaningless.

They were busy searching for the method to become a Legendary Investigator; this term was something Zhang Jie had only recently learned.

In the past, a Legendary Investigator had once briefly arrived as a Chief; the price paid then was the entire planet.

Cloud Star was completely lost in that incident.

"Back then there were no Forbidden Permits..."

In the past, humanity thought that breaking through as a Chief would make them legendary.

But the fact told them, they were dreaming.

At that time, the Chronicler had once recorded a description: the power of a Legendary Investigator is immeasurable; he did not know what he had seen, and not only did he not help humanity slay the Nightmare Lord, but instead turned his spear against humanity.

In an instant, the planet's pollution intensity proliferated at a geometric rate, directly reaching super-intensity.

No one on the planet survived; in that incident, humanity lost over a hundred Chiefs.

That was almost all of humanity's fighting strength, which also led to the Azure Star being unable to resist even high-intensity pollution afterward, losing half of it in an instant.

"The Azure Star was ultimately lost."

Zhang Jie rubbed his brow, having no clue about a perfect ending.

The reversal-result containment item in his hand simply cannot be used on Qi Yu; indeed, it cannot be used at all.

Because Qi Yu is a damn freak! He's not even human!

Besides, the obsession of a Chief Investigator is just that of a Chief! You think using a Chief to handle Forbidden Permits is possible?

"Master! Time to eat."

Lei Na pushed open the door, looking at the worried Zhang Jie, and gave a sweet smile.

"Stir-fried tomato with egg, it's delicious, with garlic added."

"I made it."

Zhang Jie raised an eyebrow, looking at Lei Na, feeling a bit overwhelmed.

"This isn't his little villa, this is the Final Containment Facility, damn it! Where did you get this kitchen from!"

"You... aren't you going to get busy?"

"Busy? Just following the Master is enough for me."

As Chief Lei Na, she could obviously spend each day being respected, staying aloft as a Chief, living a carefree life.

But she insists on staying by Zhang Jie's side, whether serving tea and water or preparing three meals a day; her confidence has grown a lot, it's just...

"Lei Na... you could do something more meaningful."

"You don't need to follow and take care of me; I'd be fine even if I didn't eat for a year."

"Master, are you disgusted with me?"

Lei Na lifted her head, looking at Zhang Jie like that, putting on a pitiful expression.

"I don't mean that..."

"Teacher, you've become... much more mature."

Lei Na suddenly came up and circled around Zhang Jie several times.

"Changed?"

Zhang Jie tactically sipped tea; although it's said that hormones are the key factor determining a body's youth, he actually agrees with that.

At least, his body has indeed aged considerably compared to before; although breaking the taboo makes him look much younger, nobody knows how many good days he has left.

Even he himself doesn't know.

"Huh! The old you would have just kicked me."

Zhang Jie rolled his eyes; what talk, he could never do that.

At most he would smirk and tease Lei Na a few times.
