I Have A Game Clone

87 Hu Changjun

Sitting in the spacious seat of the first-class cabin, Ning Shi closed his eyes and began to rest.

After eating an unpalatable in-flight meal in the middle, Ning Shi slept for a while.

After three hours of flight, the plane landed at Longxing Airport in Central City.

The Exchange Bureau was very thoughtful, and they sent a car to pick them up.

Ning Shi sat in the back, and Yun Moxiang sat in the front passenger seat and asked, “Consultant Ning, should we go to the hotel first or go directly to the secret warehouse to get your reward?”

“Let’s pick up my reward first.”

Ning Shi wanted to drink the perfect awakening potion as soon as possible. He was looking forward to his new ability.

Hearing Ning Shi’s answer, Yun Moxiang made a call.

“Minister Hu, Ning Shi will go to the secret warehouse to receive the reward first, are you free now?”

“Okay, yes, it’s about an hour’s drive. Okay, see you later.”

Ning Shi could hear Yun Moxiang’s voice on the phone clearly. After she hung up, Ning Shi asked, “Hu Changjun wants to meet me at the secret warehouse?”

Yun Moxiang put her phone back into her bag and nodded.

“That’s right. He told me yesterday to call him after confirming your schedule. If you had decided to go to the hotel first, Minister Hu would have met you there too.”

With such a high ranking leader, Ning Shi should be the one taking the initiative to pay a visit to Hu Changjun at the Special Affairs Department.

But now, because of Ning Shi’s decision, he had taken the initiative to change the meeting place.

Furthermore, he was personally rushing over.

Even though it was likely that he had deliberately done this to show his regard, Ning Shi was still very touched.

Yun Moxiang hesitated for a moment, but still slowly said, “There are some things that I shouldn’t say, but since we are cordial and I was promoted indirectly because of you, I still want to remind you.”

“The minister is a practical and direct person. When you meet later, you can ask any questions or requests directly. Don’t beat around the bush. He doesn’t like it.”

“Speaking of which, his temper is very similar to yours. You two should have many common topics.”

If two people with a straightforward temper got along well, they would be close friends. If they didn’t get along well, it was easy to cause disputes as well.

That was why Yun Moxiang had warned him.

Since she had already talked about her superior, Yun Moxiang no longer had any scruples and spoke frankly, “The old minister was one of the most legendary figures in Yunmeng Kingdom during the era of awakening. He was also one of the earliest awakeners in our country and was a pioneer in maintaining the stability of the country in that dark era.”

“We’re all doing this for the sake of our country’s growth and peace. I know you don’t like things related to politics, and Minister Hu had also considered this, so he’s meeting you in private in the hope that the both of you can become good friends.”

Ning Shi touched his chin and said, “Am I a thorn? I’m clearly a submissive citizen.”

After Ning Shi had become stronger, he had the tendency to react strongly to things he didn’t like. The incident where he lost his temper because of the admission quota had left a deep impression on Yun Moxiang.

Actually, Ning Shi had heard about Hu Changjun’s past from Hao Meng.

Hu Changjun was born a farmer. Because he admired the founding leader of Yunmeng Kingdom and wanted to serve the country, he joined the army at the age of 18.

After joining the army, he had to retire after two years because he wasn’t outstanding in any way. However, he didn’t want to leave the army, so he took the initiative to apply to be a cook.

Surprisingly, Hu Changjun was talented in cooking. In addition to his down-to-earth and hardworking style, he was praised many times after becoming a cook and was successfully promoted to a sergeant.

From then on, he stayed in the army.

It was not until 1998 that the 38-year-old Hu Changjun became an awakener. At that time, the country knew nothing about awakeners, and there were many transcendent crimes.

With his excellent style and firm belief trained by the army, Hu Changjun accepted the mission issued by his higher-ups and quickly gathered a team.

The new team was named the Investigation Department, and they were in charge of fighting criminals who were awakeners.

After slowly understanding the lives of many awakeners, Hu Changjun recalled the motto of his higher-up.

“Fewer enemies, more friends.”

Therefore, he set up the Exchange Bureau, and the policy of ‘one carrot, one stick’ was set.

The Investigation Department was in charge of apprehending and killing awakener criminals, while the Exchange Bureau was in charge of stabilizing and roping in neutral awakeners. The chaotic situation in the country was thus stabilized.

Such stability was not without cost. The number of casualties in the Investigation Apartment had always been high.

Hu Changjun’s only son also worked in the Investigation Department after his awakening.

In the end, he died in the battle to annihilate the Gray Wheel Cult, which had run amuck in the country for a time.

Ning Shi remembered Hao Meng’s comments on Hu Changjun.

“He’s a true national hero and a capable leader. Not only is his strength unfathomable, but he also has many powerful men under him.”

“His only weakness is that he values relationships too much.”

Towards such a country’s backbone, Ning Shi was extremely respectful.

After the car arrived at the secret warehouse, Hu Changjun had not arrived yet. Ning Shi stood outside the courtyard door of the secret warehouse to welcome Hu Changjun.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, Hu Changjun appeared in front of the crowd in a red contract car.

After parking the car properly, Hu Changjun opened the car door and walked over quickly.

After holding Ning Shi’s hand, he kept apologizing.

“I’m sorry, Principal Ning, the traffic in Central City was too heavy and there was a delay on the way. Sorry for making you wait!”

Hu Changjun’s arms were thick, and there were calluses on the inside of his thumb. It was obvious that he had been a chef for many years.

“Minister Hu, you’re too polite. You can just call me Xiao Ning.”

Ning Shi’s respect for Hu Changjun was completely from the bottom of his heart, but he made the situation a little reserved.

Hu Changjun laughed out loud. He looked extremely happy.

...

“Then I’ll be disrespectful. Xiao Ning, let’s go in and talk. I participated in the construction of this secret warehouse and I’m familiar with it. I’ll take you to pick something good!”

Ning Shi walked beside Hu Changjun and said, “Minister Hu, my reward is fixed and I don’t have to choose. But it’s not bad to look around and learn new things.

“Xiao Ning, don’t you still have 1000 merit points? You can exchange them for a lot of good things in the secret warehouse. The items listed on the awakener forum can not be considered to be of high quality. The real treasures are in the secret warehouse.”

After walking to the door of the secret vault, Yun Moxiang was not allowed to enter and was left outside.

Hu Changjun brought Ning Shi into the secret warehouse.

“According to the rules, I can’t tell you about the structure of the secret warehouse and the storage situation. I will pick a few good things for you according to your needs. You can decide for yourself whether you want them or not.”

The secret warehouse’s overall environment was very dark, but with Ning Shi’s vision, he could still see clearly.

The entire secret warehouse was like a large intelligent warehouse. Hu Changjun entered a string of account numbers and passwords on the computer, and then entered a few item codes.

After the input, about 30 seconds later, the track in front of Ning Shi began to turn.

After a while, a few items appeared on the tracks and moved to Ning Shi.

Hu Changjun stretched out his hand.

...

“This is the perfect awakening potion, an A-level spiritual crystal, and a war insect armor. Open the armor first, and I’ll teach you how to wear it.”

Ning Shi took the three items and took out the war insect armor from a square box as Hu Changjun had instructed.

To his surprise, it was not a set of armor, but a black metallic ball the size of a football.

Looking at the metal ball, Hu Changjun said, “Concentrate your spirit and calm your breath. Focus your spiritual power on the metal ball, close your eyes and sense it.”

“In the next few days, if you have time, use your spiritual power to sense the metal ball. In about two weeks, you should be able to leave a spiritual imprint on the metal ball.”

“At that time, the war insect armor will start to attach itself to your body.”

Hu Changjun was about to introduce the other items when the metal ball in Ning Shi’s hand began to change.

Like a huge drop of water, it quickly collapsed and turned into a liquid, flowing along Ning Shi’s arm to his whole body.

In just a few seconds, Ning Shi’s entire body was covered in a layer of black metal, even his head.

Ning Shi sensed for a moment and issued an order with his mind. The metal on his head quickly faded away, revealing Ning Shi’s head.

Hu Changjun was dumbfounded. He thought that he was a genius awakener, and at the age of 38, he had advanced to a level 9 awakener in less than ten years of cultivation.

Despite that, it took him two weeks to leave a spiritual mark on the war insect armor.

As a result, Ning Shi, a strength-type awakener, whose spiritual power should have been his weakness, took care of the war insect armor in a few seconds.

“The future generations are truly fearsome!”
