The battle lasted for two hours, and it was Stardragon's most successful operation to date; not only did they destroy an entire Germinal base, they also managed to collect large amounts of data. The top brass in Division 13 were pleased, and it wouldn't have been possible without Han Xiao's intel.
However, Han Xiao's past and the Blackstar issue remained a mystery as the information that Lin Yao had collected naturally had no mention of themthe Blackstar message log was fabricated, while the Valkyrie experiments were top secret.
Back at headquarters, Li Ya Lin reluctantly returned the Lightweight Mechanical Arm.
"Was the mechanical arm useful?" her superior asked.
Li Ya Lin nodded.
"It's all thanks to it that our mission was a success. Who created it?"
"That, I can't tell you."
Ya Lin's eyes sparkled.
"That will depend on the higher-ups."
Li Ya Lin gave up with harassing her tight-lipped superior and headed to the logistics department to look for Luo Xuan.
The covert-ops insignia on her chest ensured her smooth passage, ignoring the ongoing commotion caused by her very presence.
Although all the departments in Division 13 were equal in status, the covert-ops department was full of beautiful womcoughelite agents, so they were looked up to by all the other departments.
Li Ya Lin suddenly turned around to the crowd following her and loudly declared, "I'm looking for Luo Xuan."
Everyone looked towards Luo Xuan enviously, singling him out.
Is secret-ops here to recruit me? he wondered.
Suppressing his excitement, he answered, "I am Luo Xuan. How should I address you?"
"Li Ya Lin."
"What can I help you with?" asked Luo Xuan.
"Are you the one who invented that mechanical arm?"
Mechanical arm? Luo Xuan immediately thought of the Lightweight Mechanical Arm that had caused him to lose face.
Could it have malfunctioned? Luo Xuan celebrated inwardly.
"Was there some kind of problem?" he asked with a straight face.
"Nothing like that. I just found it very useful. I want to make a personal order."
Luo Xuan froze in embarrassment as snickers broke out in the crowdhe had been ranting loudly about how worthless he thought the mechanical arm was to the whole department.
"I didn't invent it," he replied with a forced smile.
"Then say so earlier! What a waste of my time."
Luo Xuan's face darkened.
Suddenly, Feng Jun, who had been passing by, came over and said, "The inventor's identity is top secret. Please refrain from guessing or discussing it."
