Chapter 760: Double Agent
Chapter 760: Double Agent
Lisa's face was flushed with an unusual shyness, but her slap was fierce, accompanied by a whistling wind.
In Skrull culture, a female slapping a male's face is a form of flirtation, indicating her willingness to engage in intimate activities.
The harder the slap, the more willing the female is.
Zhong Feng had heard Su Yu mention this peculiar Skrull custom, but he had no interest in these green-skinned, slime-like beings.
Before Lisa's hand could reach his cheek, Zhong Feng quickly intercepted her arm.
Embarrassed, Zhong Feng said, "Ms. Lisa, we just met, and it's not appropriate to do this... Continue your research. I'll go to the Dragon Clan Research Institute and be back before dawn!"
Without waiting for Lisa's response, he leaped out the window and vanished without a trace.
"Hey, hey, hey..." Lisa reached out to stop him, but Zhong Feng was already gone.
By the time she rushed to the window and looked outside, Zhong Feng had completely disappeared.
...
A few seconds later, Lisa left the window and walked to the sofa, sitting down slowly.
The flush on her face had faded, and she furrowed her brow in deep thought.
She wondered, "Why would King Makaton be interested in the low reproduction rate of the Dragon Clan? That's a strange thing."
In reality, Lisa's identity was far more complex than it appeared. She was a double agent.
She wasn't from the Sunfire Kingdom's intelligence agency, "Flare," but from the Lunctor Alliance's intelligence agency, "Skyeye."
Speaking of "Skyeye," it was an ancient organization that had existed since the founding of the Lunctor Alliance.
As Sindi Doppler gradually rose to become the leader of Beck Country, she caught the attention of the Skyeye organization.
Skyeye's interest in Sindi Doppler was even higher than that of the Flare organization.
After all, Beck Country shared a border with the Lunctor Alliance, while the Sunfire Empire was on the opposite side of the planet, making it less relevant. Therefore, Skyeye naturally paid more attention to Sindi Doppler.
When Sindi Doppler ascended to power, Skyeye immediately sent a large number of spies into Beck Country to conduct comprehensive surveillance.
However, about three months ago, they discovered something else: Sindi Doppler had formed an alliance with the Makaton Kingdom in the southern part of the Sunfire Empire.
Makaton was originally an extremely right-wing monarchy, but it suddenly made a 180-degree turn and became left-wing, with King Makaton III openly supporting anti-alliance organizations online.
This sudden change immediately drew the attention of Skyeye.
Lisa, a high-ranking spy, was dispatched to the Makaton Kingdom at that time to infiltrate and gather intelligence.
The newly formed Blackguards (Jinyiwei) organization was still mixed with good and bad elements. Lisa, with her exceptional skills, quickly rose to prominence and was sent to the capital of the Sunfire Empire to collect intelligence.
Until she finally met Zhong Feng...
...
Lisa thought about it for a moment but couldn't make sense of it.
She decided, "No matter what, I should report this first."
Standing up, she prepared to go to the basement to use the hidden equipment to transmit the information back to headquarters.
But just as she took a couple of steps and her hand was about to touch the doorknob, she suddenly felt something amiss behind her.
She abruptly turned around, only to find nothing but empty space behind her.
"Am I just being paranoid?" she frowned, pulling open the office door and stepping out.
However, what she didn't know was that the moment she opened the door, Zhong Feng, in his [Stealth] state, had already slipped out with her, his exceptional agility allowing him to follow closely without being noticed.
The entire process went completely undetected by Lisa.
Zhong Feng followed closely behind Lisa as they both made their way toward the basement.
...
Zhong Feng had no idea that Lisa was a double agent. In fact, he had no suspicions about her just five minutes ago.
What truly raised his doubts was her sudden move to slap herself.
Why would Lisa invite him to do something so inappropriate? It didn't make sense.
Zhong Feng, in his Skrul male form, wasn't particularly attractive—just an ordinary face lost in a crowd, much like Lisa herself.
Since it wasn't because of his looks, why did she initiate the advance? According to Zhong Feng's knowledge, female spies often used their bodies to trade for crucial information. Could Lisa be doing the same?
Adopting a "better safe than sorry" mindset, Zhong Feng jumped out the window, entered [Stealth] mode, and re-entered the office.
Lisa, a mere ordinary third-stage cultivator, couldn't see through Zhong Feng's [Stealth], and thus he followed her all the way to the basement.
...
In the basement, Lisa skillfully opened a pitch-black metallic communication device and transmitted all the intelligence she had gathered.
Standing behind her, Zhong Feng watched the entire process with a faint smile on his face.
Due to the significantly slower time flow in the "Evolution" game, Zhong Feng had already learned the Skrul language, and he could clearly read the unencrypted text Lisa was sending. He quickly understood the background of this spy.
He mused to himself, "The Luncte Union's Moutian Eye organization? Interesting, Su Yu might not even know about this group."
However, he didn't step forward to interrupt Lisa's transmission, nor did he subdue her in advance.
"This female still has some use. I'll deal with her later when she's no longer needed."
After leaving the basement with Lisa, Zhong Feng walked straight out of the hotel without looking back.
Once outside, he maintained his [Stealth] state and rushed through the streets of Sun City in his leopard form.
His destination was the "Lindragon" Dragon Research Institute.
He pushed Lisa's affair to the back of his mind, planning to deal with her later when she returned.
What he needed to focus on now was how to obtain the information he wanted as quickly as possible.
Actually, the online investigation earlier had been quite successful.
From his research on ancient history, Zhong Feng knew that the dragons' reproductive abilities were fine until about 10,000 years ago, when something unknown caused a significant decline.
The internet offered no reasonable explanation for the decline in dragons' reproductive abilities, mostly attributing it to "the dragons offended the gods, who then cursed them," or "the dragons are so powerful that their low birth rates help maintain ecological balance, a product of natural selection."
Perhaps, in this so-called Dragon Research Institute, he could find a more plausible explanation.
