Fang Xin paused for a few seconds after hearing Gong Siyuan's question.
He muttered to himself.
You really asked the right person!
"I think that Judge Number Two took people to snatch Judge Number Eleven, and with two Judicators together, these aren't ordinary people. Nine Underworld would definitely send people to escort them, and their combat power would also be very high. So, to be able to abduct two Judicators, the abductor's combat power must also be very high. I believe the opponent must be a strong individual.
Furthermore, since the two Judicators have been taken for so long, they have most likely been killed, and their Judicator qualifications have been plundered. So, trying to start from those two Judicators might not be possible. However, we can use reverse thinking. It was so chaotic at the time, and time was very urgent. The fact that the opponent succeeded in such a short amount of time proves that they knew about Judge Number Two beforehand!
Who could have known about Judge Number Two beforehand? I think there are two possibilities: either it was Zero or One, who ranked before Judge Number Two, or it was Nine Underworld, or their allies at the time, engaging in a double-cross.
Based on the above, I have a suggestion: we can first send people to spread rumors among the enemy, saying that someone within their ranks double-crossed them and took Judge Number Two and Judge Number Eleven during the chaos. Let Nine Underworld investigate the truth of this matter. This way, we can save manpower and focus on investigating whether it was Zero or Judge Number One who made the move!"
Gong Siyuan tapped his finger on the table, nodded at Fang Xin with great satisfaction, and then smiled at the others, "Did you hear that? Fang Xin's line of thinking is very clear. Not only did he propose a line of thinking, but he also proposed a solution. He truly surpassed his predecessors. What do you all think of the line of thinking Fang Xin just mentioned?"
Team Leader Rong Muy field, with his thick, bushy eyebrows angled upwards, said, "I think Fang Xin's line of thinking is very clear, and it's the correct approach to finding who abducted the two Judicators this time. Fang Xin just mentioned that we could use Nine Underworld to investigate whether there was a double-cross within their ranks, and I think that method is also excellent.
However, regarding the other possibility, Fang Xin might not be aware that searching for Zero Arbiter and Judge Number One is like looking for a needle in a haystack. It is well known that the higher a Judicator's ranking, the harder they are to find. If Judge Number One's difficulty coefficient is SS-rank, then Zero's is even SSS-rank."
Fang Xin apologized, "It was my oversight. Those two are indeed very difficult to find, especially Zero. I think if Zero doesn't reveal himself, no one can find him, and no one knows who Zero truly is!"
Ke Jie, with his scholarly face, chewed on a lollipop, "Who? That's an existence capable of judging the King of Slaughter, the Judicator with the highest prestige among the thirteen Judicators. From historical experience, although a Judicator's combat power might not be as good as an ordinary prodigy, that refers to Judicators other than Zero. Over ninety percent of those who become Zero Arbiter are exceptionally talented individuals, ranking at T0 level even among prodigies!"
Rong Muy field's gaze suddenly sharpened, "Director Gong, since Zero Arbiter is already very strong, why don't we start from this angle? Let's first screen all the SSS-rank talents from recent years."
Gong Siyuan pondered for a moment, "This approach works. Let's start by working backward from this year's SSS-rank talents."
Team Leader Qiang Ba, who was very strong, suddenly chuckled, "Among this year's SSS-rank talents nationwide, isn't there one sitting right here?"
As he spoke, he gestured towards Fang Xin with his chin.
Everyone looked at Fang Xin.
A few seconds later, everyone's gaze shifted away from Fang Xin, "Strength-based ones don't count."
Fang Xin rolled his eyes in annoyance, "I originally wanted to get along with you all as an ordinary person, but all I received were cold stares and ridicule. I'm not pretending anymore, I'm coming clean, I am Zero Arbiter! I want to rectify the name of our Strength Talent!"
Seeing Fang Xin's expression, laughter immediately erupted in the conference room.
After the laughter subsided.
Gong Siyuan cleared his throat, "Alright, no more jokes for now. Let's get back to business."
Fang Xin glared at the laughing people, feeling indignant. When would Strength Talent ever rise up!
This group of people began a new round of discussion. After a brainstorming session, they decided to combine Fang Xin's and Rong Muy field's suggestions and screen the SSS-rank talents from recent years.
Even though Fang Xin revealed himself, these people automatically ignored him. Firstly, Fang Xin possessed Strength Talent, which has long been at the bottom of the hierarchy of contempt. Secondly, everyone thought Fang Xin was joking just now, because if he really were Zero Arbiter, he wouldn't have the mental fortitude to sit here so calmly.
Fang Xin sat in the office, delegated the tasks, and immersed himself in cultivation, intending to fully absorb the remaining essence blood of the Six-Eyed Deity.
Over the next few days, the main focus was on screening people with good talents from previous years. However, during this process, Fang Xin also came into contact with some things. The Ninth Division also had an undercover agent in the Eternal Night Army, and judging from the various materials transmitted back, their status there was quite high.
The situation on the North front became increasingly tense. News came from above that, at a critical moment, more troops would be transported there.
Fang Xin asked Bai Mao Zai, and Bai Mao Zai told Fang Xin that a fight wouldn't break out in the short term. Both sides were currently stalling, waiting for an opportune moment.
Now, Fang Xin's daily work consisted of slacking off, leaving tasks to his subordinates, while he himself honed his cultivation.
Every day, he would also take time to pay attention to Ma Fuxiao's movements. Huang Dabao, that old fellow, specifically installed cameras in the experimental base to allow Fang Xin to monitor Ma Fuxiao's movements in real-time.
During this period, according to Ma Fuxiao's report, everything was going smoothly.
Fang Xin had already invested a billion, and although he said that this kind of money had to be spent, a billion was not a small amount. If it failed a few more times, Fang Xin's entire fortune would be gone.
Time flew by, and two weeks later.
Fang Xin stared intently at the surveillance video.
Ma Fuxiao, with his bedhead, carefully removed the potion from the experimental machine. After inspecting it, he rushed to the camera, ecstatic, and gesticulated wildly with excitement, "It's a success! We succeeded!"
Fang Xin exhaled and asked again, "How long will it take from injection to gradually reaching peak Level Twelve combat power?"
"It only takes three days to a week! I've already selected the people to be inoculated! I'm going to do it now!"
Fang Xin rubbed his hands excitedly, "Waiting for your good news!"
With his hands clasped together, Fang Xin silently prayed in his heart, wishing for Shi Tailang's ten years of singlehood in exchange for the success of the first potion experiment.
A full four days passed.
Ma Fuxiao sent Fang Xin a message.
The first potion experiment was a success!
The Seven Killings Sect now had its first Level Twelve combat power!
Fang Xin laughed heartily, and when he went out, he ran into Shi Tailang. Fang Xin gave Shi Tailang a bear hug.
Shi Tailang was bewildered, not understanding why Fang Xin was hugging him out of the blue.
"Xin Ge, let's go eat hotpot!" Shi Tailang called out.
Fang Xin had just opened his mouth to say something.
The entire Sky Shield Bureau's alarm system suddenly blared.
"What's wrong?"
