274: Infused with divine gifts, top warriors

As soon as Jiang Chuan completed these tasks, they immediately boarded the private plane arranged by the other party and left Chinese territory.

The private plane landed directly within South Korea.

"Welcome back."

Pike arrived at the private airport immediately to welcome Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue, celebrating their completion of the mission and arrival here.

"Thank you, Captain."

Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue expressed their thanks, surprised that Pike had personally come to greet them.

"Follow me. I have already prepared the god's gift for you. Now you can use the god's gift and officially become a true member of our Law Enforcement Team."

"Captain, we've been running around for several days. Could you grant us one day of rest? Once we're fully rested, the effects of using the god's gift might be even better."

Upon hearing Pike's words, Jiang Chuan immediately offered this explanation.

"Of course. Rest well for a day. Come straight to the hotel to find me tomorrow. The divine messenger has already brought your god's gift, and you may partake whenever you wish."

Pike laughed upon hearing Jiang Chuan's request.

"Thank you, Captain."

Jiang Chuan immediately expressed his gratitude after Pike's reply.

Pike personally escorted Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue to their living quarters. Once they were back in the room, Jiang Chuan noticed subtle changes: the entire space was rigged with numerous hard-to-detect surveillance cameras. Clearly, this was all Pike's work.

"Pike still doesn't trust us."

Jiang Chuan looked at the setup and gave a cold laugh. He immediately understood that Pike didn't fully trust them, though it might also be a directive from the Heavenly Lord Society.

Jiang Chuan subtly signaled Bai Mengxue using hand gestures. Since she understood sign language, Bai Mengxue instantly grasped his meaning, realizing the room was filled with surveillance equipment.

Jiang Chuan needed Bai Mengxue's cooperation. He had her embrace him, and the two entered the room together.

As Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue entered the room together, they immediately went to the bed, and the quilt completely covered both of them.

"So these two are just here to enjoy themselves."

"These two are truly starved, getting right down to business after finishing the mission."

Pike and the divine messenger beside him watched as Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue undressed without hesitation and got into bed, covering themselves completely with the quilt. They immediately understood the couple's intentions and stopped paying attention to them.

This was because Bai Mengxue's voice could already be heard through the surveillance feed.

Jiang Chuan immediately transformed his watch into a miniature computer. As he rapidly typed lines of code, a few minutes passed, and the surveillance feed was completely hijacked by him. Everything the observers saw was exactly what Jiang Chuan wanted them to see.

"It's done."

Jiang Chuan said this to Bai Mengxue.

Bai Mengxue, her face flushed, nodded upon hearing Jiang Chuan's words. Without saying anything further, she immediately left the room.

Jiang Chuan felt a little awkward at the moment, but there were far more important tasks awaiting them.

Once Jiang Chuan had control of all the surveillance, he exchanged a quick word with Bai Mengxue, immediately left the villa, and rushed toward the designated laboratory.

When Jiang Chuan arrived at the laboratory, he immediately prepared the potion.

This potion was originally designed to counteract the Sublimation liquid. As for whether it could prevent the effects of the even stronger divine gift potion, Jiang Chuan had no absolute guarantee. Although he had increased the potion's concentration many times over, the final result could only be confirmed through testing.

"You're back."

Bai Mengxue immediately greeted Jiang Chuan when she saw him return to the villa.

"Mhm, I've finished preparing the potion. I don't know if it will be effective against the divine gift potion. If it fails to prevent the divine gift potion's effects, we'll have to figure out a solution later."

Jiang Chuan nodded after hearing Bai Mengxue's words, then handed her the prepared potion and instructed her to inject it into her body.

"Understood."

Knowing the potion's purpose, Bai Mengxue agreed without hesitation and injected the liquid into her body.

The next day.

Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue arrived at the hotel together.

"Did you enjoy yourselves yesterday?"

Pike immediately smiled and asked this upon seeing Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue arrive.

As soon as he said this, Bai Mengxue's face instantly flushed. Jiang Chuan merely smiled and told Pike that they had indeed enjoyed themselves yesterday.

Pike did not say anything further but led the two of them into the conference room.

When Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue entered the conference room, they saw two vials of green liquid. This was the god's gift Pike had spoken of.

"This is the god's gift. Once you inject the god's gift, you will feel its true terror. You will absolutely become obsessed with this substance."

Pike said this to the pair with a wide smile.

"Thank you, Captain."

After hearing Pike's words, Jiang Chuan and Bai Mengxue immediately injected the god's gift into their bodies under his watchful gaze.

When Jiang Chuan injected the god's gift into his body, he experienced no change whatsoever.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

On the other side, Bai Mengxue screamed agonizingly. Seeing this, Jiang Chuan immediately rushed to her side, calling out with concern, but Bai Mengxue was enduring such immense pain that she couldn't hear what he was saying.

"You have no reaction?"

Pike frowned, looking at Jiang Chuan and asking, astonished that he wasn't experiencing any pain.

"Captain, I currently have no reaction. What is wrong with Meng Xue? Why is she in so much pain?"

Jiang Chuan shook his head and asked Pike directly.

"Don't worry, this is a normal reaction to the injection. It will only last for a few minutes before disappearing."

Pike immediately offered this explanation to Jiang Chuan, then gave him a profound look and said nothing else.

Five minutes later, the feeling that had tormented Bai Mengxue to the point of wishing for death instantly vanished. Immediately afterward, her eyes brightened, and her entire demeanor became slightly colder and more ruthless. At the same time, Jiang Chuan could feel that the physical strength in her body had increased significantly.

"What changes do you feel?"

Pike nodded in satisfaction at the sight, then addressed Bai Mengxue.

"Captain, I feel a massive change in my personal strength. I have already reached the level of a top-tier special forces soldier."

Bai Mengxue heard Pike's words and immediately described all the changes. This was also information meant for Jiang Chuan, intended to tell him the full scope of the effects. After all, she had been in extreme pain; although she couldn't respond to Jiang Chuan earlier, she knew he had not used the god's gift, but that his preemptive potion had successfully blocked it.

"Excellent. Follow me. Next, it's time to test your strength."

Pike nodded in satisfaction, said this to the pair, and led them to a room located in the deepest part of the hotel.
