Biochemical Martial Arts: Supreme Heavenly Venerate

Lin Rui and Professor Han looked at each other in utter surprise upon hearing these words.

Especially Professor Han, who was particularly astonished. In fact, before Lin Rui's arrival, he had already hinted to his old classmate.

He had not expected Zhou Yunfei to offer half a rank higher treatment on this basis.

And the responsibilities of this key position were significant. In theory, after obtaining authorization from Zhou Yunfei, they could intervene in all matters related to the Ninth Base City.

Professor Han looked at Zhou Yunfei with a doubtful expression, "Directly granting the military rank of Major General in the Security Bureau? Can this be done?"

It was known that Zhou Yunfei himself was only a Brigadier General, and his position within the Ninth Division was not very stable.

In his opinion, it would have been quite impressive if Zhou Yunfei could secure the rank of Brigadier General for Lin Rui.

"This is not a matter to be decided by me alone," Zhou Yunfei glanced at Professor Han, "If we want to ensure that Lin Twelve's matters are completely fail-safe, the chief's war dragon must take action. Do you think all those astrologers of the Great Song Dynasty are just for show? Only a Ninth Realm Divine Illuminator can suppress fate for him."

Did his old friend really think that passing the Heavenly Demon Test would settle everything?

In fact, even a Ninth Realm Divine Illuminator might not be safe, for once they saw Lin Twelve's chaotic fate, they would know there was an issue.

However, Lin Rui also had an advantage since he was connected with three abyssal entities and was proficient in four abyssal concepts. With the interference of abyssal will, it was normal for astrologers not to see the traces of his fate.

Professor Han's eyes slightly narrowed, realizing he had forgotten about those astrologers of the Great Song Dynasty, whose abilities were no less than the various grand models of forecast used by the Federation.

Now that Lin Rui had reached the high position of Commander of the Assassination Bureau, not only would various major institutions including the Security Bureau within the Federation be closely monitoring him, but the native forces of the Polar Extreme Star would also be observing every single move of Lin Twelve.

In due course, astrologers would definitely act on behalf of Lin Twelve to observe the traces of his fate.

Once they saw something, the situation would become complicated.

Professor Han looked puzzled, "Isn't your chief already in slumber? I heard he was cooperating with the East Asian Science Academy on an experiment to see if he could break through to the Tenth Realm of Longevity. Isn't it bad to awaken him now?"

"Old Han, you're pretty well-informed,"

Zhou Yunfei was slightly surprised, then chuckled lightly, his eyes showing a strange light, "Before the chief went to sleep, he handed over the control of his war dragon bio-armor to me. To facilitate my actions in the Ninth Division, he also allowed me to use some of his powers within the Security Bureau, but I have to explain all my actions to him afterward."

Professor Han's expression was visibly shaken, wondering if his old classmate was really so remarkable. Find your next read on My Virtual Library Empire

He knew that chief was Zhou Yunfei's most significant backer within the Federal Security Bureau.

Before being promoted to Brigadier General, Zhou Yunfei had always been the secretary to the that chief.

But Professor Han had never imagined that the chief trusted Zhou Yunfei to such an extent as to even entrust him with the control of that 9SSS grade war dragon bio-armor.

And such an operation, wasn't it against regulations? The chief granting Zhou Yunfei this power was probably a precaution against something, yet Zhou Yunfei used it for this purpose.

However, Zhou Yunfei's eyes were sharp and penetrating, thinking that since he was going to use that war dragon, he would surely alert the chief afterward, so he might as well do it thoroughly and directly upgrade Lin Rui's level.

He understood that "the method to choose the right people must seek reality; the art of employing people should fully utilize their capabilities" and knew that if he wanted to win over someone like Lin Rui, he needed not only to treat him with sincerity but also to offer substantial rewards and responsibilities.

But Zhou Yunfei's actions were driven not only to recruit Lin Rui but also by practical necessity.

The three deputy directors of the Ninth Division, entrenched in their power, almost sidelined him in a combined effort.

Ever since the failed infiltration of the Imperial City Division, his Confidential Office had been penetrated by these three people like a sieve, leaking information everywhere.

Zhou Yunfei was very worried that Lin Rui would be targeted by these few vice-ministers, and also concerned about the leaking of Lin Twelve's identity.

Now, the only solution was to raise Lin Rui's security clearance and authority to prevent these vice-ministers from meddling and intervening.

He was also keen to use this newly established Third Special Operations Division to reconstitute his direct power within the Ninth Branch.

Although the boss had given him considerable authority and support, Zhou Yunfei could not use it at will, otherwise, he would be unable to explain himself to the boss afterward.

Now, with Lin Rui as a pretext, Zhou Yunfei had an opportunity to exercise this authority and naturally wanted to pull as many benefits as possible into his lap.

Moreover, considering Lin Rui's experience, the kid had shown exceptional capability.

Zhou Yunfei was very much looking forward to this future Head of the Spy Bureau.

He smiled at Lin Rui, "Also, given your undercover mission in the Imperial City Division, which is very important for the security situation of our Earth Federation, you can apply for a secret operational fund. How much would you like to apply for?"

Taken aback by the question, Lin Rui felt suspicious and probed, "I don't quite understand this. Uncle Zhou, how much do you think is appropriate?"

Zhou Yunfei had allowed him to call him Uncle Zhou in private.

"Well then, let's allocate 5 billion Federation dollars for this year, start by transferring 500 million Federation dollars to your Third Special Operations Division account, and you can apply to me for subsequent use."

Zhou Yunfei figured that allocating this money in Lin Rui's name, even if the boss found out afterward, he probably would not be too angry.

"To ensure that Lin Twelve's identity is completely secure, I think it's necessary to draw a 6A action team from the Second Base into the Third Special Operations Division, along with four 5A action teams and two 5A Variant Agent teams. What do you think? To ensure safety, the Third Special Operations Division needs to apply for nine 'Jianlong' Type-6 combat robots, plus three 'Jianlong' Type-7s—"

Seeing Lin Rui nodding vaguely, Zhou Yunfei smiled and said a lot more, then entered information into his personal smart terminal, "There we go, this is you accepting our Security Bureau's recruitment terms, right? I can make the decision on behalf of the boss and say yes! Lin Rui, is there anything else you need? Feel free to ask."

Lin Rui pondered, where do I have so many requests? Even if I had any, I wouldn't dare to make them.

A newcomer like me, making such requests without fearing that the superiors would find him insatiable?

But he gradually caught on and kept silent.

Lin Rui realized that these resources and funds, though nominally belonging to his Third Special Operations Division, were actually in Zhou Yunfei's hands.

They were not given for him.

Professor Han silently watched his old classmate, thinking this old Zhou was indeed bold.

From this, it was apparent that he had indeed suffered significant losses a few months ago.

Not until Zhou Yunfei's voice trailed off did Lin Rui speak up, "Uncle Zhou, I'd like some recruitment authority for lieutenant colonels in the Security Bureau, the higher the security clearance, the better. Also, would you let Xue Lingxue be my assistant?"

Now he needed to attend to several fronts and surely didn't have much time to focus on this Third Special Operations Division, and at times like this, a trustworthy assistant was needed.

Zhou Yunfei's lips curved slightly at the words, thinking this suited him well, "Alright! I'll have her come to you tomorrow."

He had previously decisively rejected Lin Twelve's condition to acquire Xue Lingxue, but now he agreed without hesitation.

With Xue Lingxue overseeing this Third Special Operations Division, Zhou Yunfei felt very reassured. Lin Rui willingly asking to take little Xue over was a great thing.
