VMN: Chapter 67: Dongfang Xia's Joining (Part 2)

The Stellar Group commander in front of her was wearing a black combat uniform, holding a half-face mask in one hand. Her long silver hair cascaded down to her shoulders. She even had an eye patch on her left eye, and her blue eyes were firmly fixed on Dongfang Xia, exuding the aura of a predator. Although her temperament had changed, that face was undoubtedly Mo Yanqiu's.

But... Mo Yanqiu... Hasn't she been dead for two years?

She even attended her funeral in person.

Dongfang Xia and Mo Yanqiu had met several times, and although their friendship was not deep, a person who should have died was standing in front of her alive, which made her feel unbelievable.

"Didn't you already..."

"Dead?" Mo Yanqiu sneered. "My life is tough, and it's not easy for me to die."

For a moment, many guesses flooded Dongfang Xia's mind.

"So, they made you fake your death and secretly sent you here to develop your own power? The Mo family is really good at it," Dongfang Xia said.

"Unfortunately, you guessed wrong." Unexpectedly, Mo Yanqiu denied her.

"The whole thing is actually very simple. My father and that lovely younger sister wanted to kill me, but they failed. I paid a price and escaped alive." Mo Yanqiu touched the patch on her left eye, and said those.scary words with ease. "As for the Stellar Group, it is a private property of mine."

"So, you are the owner of the Stellar Group." Dongfang Xia gulped and said.

"Yes. Do you want to join the big family of Stellar Group?" Mo Yanqiu smiled softly.

"Then, what is your purpose?" Dongfang Xia recovered from the shock, and her eyes regained her sense.

"Purpose?" Mo Yanqiu asked without raising her head. "What purpose can we have?"

"Don't try to lie to me." Dongfang Xia resumed the appearance of that strong woman. "Look at what the Stellar Group did! I don't believe it's just a group of mercenaries."

"The teaching materials you used in the Hope Angel Project have been mixed with a lot of other things, right? If I'm not wrong, you want to use Stellar Group to fight against the Mo family!" She said her guess.

However, unexpectedly, Mo Yanqiu still looked at her with a smile on her face, and then she said, "Yes, and no."

"What's the meaning of this?"

"Everything I do is for a greater purpose."

"Greater… goal?" Dongfang Xia muttered Mo Yanqiu's words. "I don't understand."

"Did you see a ghost?"

"Ghost?" Dongfang Xia was completely confused.

"Yes, a ghost." Mo Yanqiu's single eye looked at Dongfang Xia deeply.

"A red ghost flying around the world."

…

The door opened.

"Miss, how's the situation?" Elder Li asked, for some reason, he always felt that Miss seemed to be a different person.

There seems to be light in her eyes?

"The Stellar Group want to recruit me," Dongfang Xia said. "I agreed."

"What?" Elder Li showed a look of surprise. "What conditions did they offer you? Is it better than the Seventh Machinery Factory?"

"Of course," Dongfang Xia said. "They support my research and provide me with protection. Tell my father about it."

"Good lady." After finishing speaking, Mr. Li took out the satellite phone and left. After a while, he came back and said, "Miss, the master agrees."

This made Dongfang Xia a little astonished, but she quickly realised it. "Did he say anything else?"

"The master told me to go back quickly. Something happened to the family. The master said that you must not go back without his permission."

"What's the matter?" Dongfang Xia frowned.

"Some children of the ten families were assassinated by a terrorist organization called the Council of Stars. Although they were only collateral, it still made the head of the family feel nervous. Compared with the Dragon Kingdom, you are safer here, and the master even gave you a call. A sum of money was used as a security fee. I have to go to meet with the personnel of the Dongfang family here, miss, please pay attention to safety."

"I see, Elder Li, have a good trip."

Watching off Elder Li who was walking in a hurry, Dongfang Xia frowned. At that moment, Mo Yanqiu's voice rang in her ears, "Okay, now that you've joined the Stellar Group, you can no longer stay at Paschlick's place. How about it? Would you like to take a look at your workplace?"

Dongfang Xia turned her head, saw Mo Yanqiu who was wearing a mask, nodded and smiled. "Of course."

"Very well, please go to the plane with me."

"This is the scientific research base of Gray Wolf Armor Company, a subsidiary of the Stellar Group, and it is the most advanced research centre in the entire Western Territory."

Mo Yanqiu ignored the surprised Dongfang Xia, and introduced everything as she walked. "All the armour equipment of the Stellar Group is produced here. In addition, the gray wolf has also contracted the armament manufacturing of several countries."

"Over there is the weapons testing ground, where all new equipment must undergo rigorous testing."

"The research team is divided into two major departments, vehicles and weapons. The subordinates of the departments are divided into many small departments according to the direction of research and development. You are now the section chief of the Mecha Division of the Transport Department. I have already assigned the relevant personnel to you. Let's go greet them."

"Do you know why I was left by the Seventh Machinery Factory?"

Dongfang Xia asked suddenly.

"Of course." Mo Yanqiu didn't stop walking. "You claim that you want to develop a mecha that surpasses the current mecha [Stegosaurus] in Dragon Kingdom. I hope you can make your research come true."

"You really believe that I will succeed?" Dongfang Xia asked suspiciously.

"How can we know if you don't even try?" Mo Yanqiu stopped.

Hearing this, Dongfang Xia showed a hearty smile.

"I will definitely succeed."
