Underground, Fang Yutian looked at the green grass, lost in thought.
He wondered, if there was something blocking my detection underground, then if I focused all my detection on one point, would that still be able to block my detection?
He put his hand on the ground, concentrated his psychic power on his palm, and then condensed it into a beam that shot towards the ground.
Originally, his method was to spread his psychic power around, like echolocation.
The benefit was a large range, and more comprehensive information was obtained.
This method of concentrating on one point, however, was like a laser, able to penetrate all kinds of barriers.
However, less information was obtained, and it was more energy-consuming.
He rarely used this method of detection normally.
As the psychic power went deeper, he first passed through a section of soil, and then encountered a special metal partition.
This metal partition was solid in texture, and had been blocking his psychic detection.
At the same time, this metal also isolated the detection of other detection methods, not only electromagnetic signals, but also satellite remote sensing, could not pass through this metal partition.
Unable to do anything else, he had to use even more energy than usual, and his psychic power broke through again.
He saw the huge underground space hidden under the estate.
Rows of bookshelves, rows of file folders, the space he was in should be a library or a database.
At the same time, he could still hear gunshots and roars in the distance, so their battle was still going on.
Having detected this, Fang Yutian was already visibly tired at this time.
But fortunately, he had confirmed that this underground space did exist.
Then the next question was, how to get in and what to do after going in.
He got up from the ground and patted the dust off his clothes.
Whether you say he was impatient or eager for quick success, he was not in the mood to continue mixing with the maids to gather information.
He roughly had a method, and now he just needed to act as soon as possible.
Just as he was getting up to leave, a man in a white coat, with messy hair and heavy dark circles under his eyes, walked to the front of the library.
“Although the master has said that we need to cooperate, do we really need to go this far?” Following behind the man was Sister Zhang, the head maid of the maids, and the most trusted maid of the Ma family.
“With our current equipment, we can’t handle the young master’s current symptoms.
The computing power is not enough.
If we want to solve it within a day, we must borrow the headquarters’ server to complete the processing.
Now only the large computer here can connect to the headquarters.”
“But this is an important place for the Ma family, keeping important information about the Ma family, you must…”
“I know, I know, the confidentiality agreement, after all, you are the major shareholders, and lives are at stake, so we can supplement the agreement later.”
“I have to go in with you, Xia Yupeng.”
If Fang Yutian was still here, he would have been shocked to hear this.
Xia Yupeng, that was the leading genius of the entire country.
At the young age of twenty, he had already made a number of technological achievements that could shock the technology world.
His technology was widely used in many fields such as medicine, computer science, and materials science.
His income from patents alone could buy a house in the capital every year.
If every elementary school student had ever said that they wanted to become a scientist, then he Xia Yupeng was the first representative of the scientists that people thought of.
Such a person would actually appear here.
If the news spread, it would shock everyone.
Sister Zhang took the lead and pressed her finger on the password lock in front of the library and entered a string of passwords.
The door made a series of noises, and then the heavy door opened in front of Xia Yupeng and Zhang Xue.
Looking inside, there were large amounts of bookshelves, which contained all kinds of ancient books, journals, and cultural relics.
Paintings, if taken out and sold by people with ulterior motives, could earn a lot of money.
But these were obviously not the targets that Xia Yupeng cared about.
He quickly passed by the books, except for slowing down slightly in front of some scientific works, and his overall goal was clear.
Without even Zhang Xue leading the way, he came directly to a host behind a row of bookshelves.
This was the operating interface of the Ma family manor’s server.
He opened the computer, inserted a USB flash drive, and quickly deployed the configuration process of the relevant software.
He didn’t spend much effort, and soon remotely logged into a server, connecting his headquarters’ server and another device in the manor through the library’s supercomputer’s external communication network.
“Is that all right? Aren’t you going to check it again?” Looking at Xia Yupeng, who got up quickly, Zhang Yupeng couldn’t help but feel a hint of doubt.
She originally thought that such technology would take more time.
“Yes, that’s all right.” Xia Yupeng confidently got up and left the library, walking towards the door.
“Besides, don’t you want to save the young master quickly? At this time, the master should have arrived.”
After saying that, Xia Yupeng went out, and Zhang Xue had no choice but to follow, leaving the library.
In a circular, luxurious hall, the maids stood at the entrance in a united team, waiting.
The battle started last night and had just ended not long ago.
The Ma family members were indeed relieved at this time.
Now the maids had reorganized their appearance and clothing, although they had experienced a night of battle, they did not show a trace of fatigue.
They stood in two rows on both sides, waiting for the master’s arrival, not daring to show a trace of slackness.
The master they were talking about, Ma Jiahao, Ma Guohao’s father, was also the current head of the Ma family.
Now the entire Ma family’s industry was in his hands, and he could be said to be one of the most prestigious people in Tianshui City.
Although he was half a century old, he was still strong.
At this time, he was wearing a somewhat old suit, and walked into the hall with a serious and solemn expression.
The maids on both sides saw him walk in and saluted, expressing respect.
Ma Jiahao was naturally accustomed to such behavior.
Even if such a person said that he refused such a salute, the people below would probably try to please and treat him in different ways.
If he stopped such behavior, the maids would probably take even more radical actions, especially since Yang Jia joined the maids a few years ago.
This group of servants had begun to become more and more flattering and greasy.
Such a scene was already commonplace for the Ma family members themselves, but it was quite fresh for outsiders.
“That’s great, I also want to experience the feeling of being surrounded by people,” Xia Yupeng, who had rushed over at this time, couldn’t help but complain when he saw such a scene.
“I see, so the boss likes this.” At this time, a brisk voice sounded behind Xia Yupeng, accompanied by heavy footsteps.
“Come, set off the fireworks.”
With that voice ordering, two fully armed mercenaries kneeled on one knee and glided to Xia Yupeng’s side, releasing confetti from their hands.
“Play music.”
Two fully armed mercenaries followed the actions of the previous two and carried the speakers out, an invincible speaker was released.
Xia Yupeng quickly left, his face was black.
He came to a huge instrument and operated the panel.
“My subordinates made you laugh,” Xia Yupeng’s face was lost in thought, and he explained embarrassedly to Ma Jiahao, who was next to him.
“Can my son still be saved, or can he return to normal?” But Ma Jiahao’s mind was not on what had just happened.
His eyes were on the instrument in the middle of the hall, or rather, the human figure soaked in the solution inside the instrument.
That was his son, Ma Jiahao.
At this moment, he was lying there asleep.
His right half had fallen into some kind of mechanization, and red light faintly emitted from the gaps in the lines.
A red core was revealed in the middle of his chest.
That was Ma Guohao, who had fallen into a monster transformation.
