202: Chapter 202 The Spokesperson of Another World
After arriving here, Lin Fang did not enter the building. Instead, he went to a warehouse specifically prepared by Tanaka Taiichi. The warehouse was relatively remote, and Lin Fang intended to place the Wormhole leading to reality in this location.
Tanaka Taiichi couldn't help but ask, "Boss, what do you need this empty warehouse for?"
"Naturally, it has its uses."
"But what could..." Before he could finish speaking, Tanaka Taiichi suddenly realized he had spoken out of turn and quickly lowered his head, beads of sweat forming on his temples. "Sorry, boss, I said too much."
Lin Fang did not respond immediately. His gaze slowly swept over the interior of the empty warehouse, and he nodded in satisfaction before finally looking at Tanaka Taiichi.
"It's fine. You'll soon find out what will happen here."
After saying that, Lin Fang first took out Venom, which had been in the warehouse, to let it get some air. Tanaka Taiichi then saw a terrifying, pitch-black, viscous creature suddenly emerge from the young man's body.
What kind of spirit is this?!
He had never seen anything like it before. Tanaka Taiichi watched in horror, involuntarily taking several steps back.
"Fang," Venom said excitedly after emerging, sniffing the air repeatedly. "This world smells delicious."
Then, Venom noticed the middle-aged man trembling and quickly wrapped its body around him, licking his cheek with its slimy tongue. "This head smells tasty."
Tanaka Taiichi immediately collapsed to the ground in fright.
Lin Fang: ...
After helping him up, Lin Fang casually introduced, "This is Venom, a creature from another world. Hmm... my partner."
"Fang, I love you!" Hearing this, Venom tried to give Lin Fang a French kiss but was intimidated by his death glare. It reluctantly turned its head away, pretending to survey the surroundings.
Another world?
Because of Lin Fang's actions, Tanaka Taiichi, who had calmed down and was even somewhat moved, felt as if struck by lightning. The next second, he saw the mysterious young man summon another creature.
This creature resembled a mantis shrimp, covered in dark blue armor, and looked very peculiar.
And it could even speak human language...
"Sect Master," the Kaminax hurriedly bowed upon seeing Lin Fang. It wasn't surprised that his appearance differed from the one in its consciousness because the Sect Master had said he might appear in different forms.
"King Kaminax,"
Lin Fang nodded slightly, calling upon their clan king. He knew it would be able to see.
Sure enough, the expression of this Kaminax changed, becoming more devout. "Sect Master, the Kaminax clan is ready to serve you at any time."
"Without sacrificing any clan members, how long would it take to open a Wormhole here?"
"At least seven days."
King Kaminax replied, "If the Sect Master is in a hurry, our clan is willing to sacrifice. We could do it in as little as an hour."
"That won't be necessary," Lin Fang could wait these few days; there was no need to be so drastic.
—
A week later, under Tanaka Taiichi's astonished gaze, a Wormhole leading to another dimension slowly stabilized in the warehouse. Inside, petal-like structures emitting blue energy breathed as if alive, opening layer by layer.
Then, a squad of armed soldiers emerged from it. They wore unified black combat suits, and beneath their masks, only pairs of eyes as cold as machinery were visible.
Yet the aura emanating from these twenty men chilled the temperature of the entire warehouse. Anyone could sense the terrifying explosive power hidden beneath their calm exteriors.
Hiss—
Tanaka Taiichi couldn't help but gasp. The cold and powerful displayed by these soldiers was something he had never seen in his life.
However, they were not Lin Fang's carefully cultivated H.D.S. Forces but merely a squad of ordinary clone soldiers. Lin Fang intended for them to be solely responsible for the security of this Wormhole. Otherwise, if creatures from this world passed through the Wormhole to the real world, things could get messy.
Although these clone soldiers couldn't compare to the genetically enhanced H.D.S. Forces, they were more than sufficient as basic guard forces.
While Tanaka Taiichi was stunned, the petals opened once more, and a young man with black hair and black eyes walked out.
When his gaze swept over, Tanaka Taiichi felt as if he had been targeted by the Grim Reaper. The slightest misstep could mean instant death.
An intense sense of danger made Tanaka Taiichi's hair stand on end.
He already understood who this was: his boss, a terrifying entity from an unknown force in another world. Although his appearance was completely different from that of Takahashi Sanji, who was currently at the hotel, the indifferent in his eyes was exactly the same.
After instructing the clone soldiers to stand guard, Lin Fang looked at Tanaka Taiichi, a hint of mockery in his tone. "You're not very brave. I thought you'd run away after seeing all this."
"Boss, I... I did consider it just now," Tanaka Taiichi said with a bitter smile.
"Good. It seems you've made your choice,"
Lin Fang nodded appreciatively and walked over to Tanaka Taiichi. "Have you thought it through? You still have a chance to back out now. If you do, I'll erase your memory as if nothing happened."
"If you choose to join, you'll become the spokesperson for my company in this world. What you need to do is help the company control this world and gather the resources it requires."
"I'll give you one more minute to consider," Lin Fang's tone turned severe. "Once you join, there's no turning back. If you betray or act against the company, death will be the lightest price you pay."
Tanaka Taiichi fell into deep contemplation.
A life of mediocrity or joining an organization that surpassed the limits of his imagination—Tanaka Taiichi had never imagined that any force could traverse time and space.
And now, an opportunity to join it was right before his eyes.
Having made up his mind, Tanaka Taiichi took a deep breath, his eyes becoming resolute. "Boss, I'm willing to join. From now on, my life belongs to the company. I will never commit any act of betrayal."
"You've made the right choice."
Lin Fang's smile instantly turned amiable. He patted Tanaka Taiichi's shoulder and said, "Later, research teams will arrive one after another. Your first task is to help settle them in."
Tanaka Taiichi immediately responded, "Understood."
After leaving the warehouse, Lin Fang took some time to arrive at the entrance of a company. The company's logo was a spirit with spread wings, and its scale was much larger than his current company. Its name was Clifford Industries.
Conventional development was too slow. Lin Fang still wanted to find some external help, and this seemed like a good option. But as soon as Lin Fang approached the entrance, two security guards stopped him: "Sir, may I ask what your business is?"
A faint, almost imperceptible glint flashed in Lin Fang's eyes: "I'm looking for Howard Clifford."
