Entering the elevator in the bar, he pressed the floor buttons in the following order: 4, 10, 2, 18, 3, 16, 5, 17, 8. The white lights on the buttons went out one after another.

The elevator did not go up, but began to descend.

The order of these floor buttons could not be wrong; only if it was completely correct could the hidden program be activated.

The elevator doors opened, and Old Shen was still sitting behind the small table. He looked up and pushed a small box forward: “Now you’re my superior… This is your Ginkgo Medal, representing the highest honor within the Qing Family Conglomerate. Will you take it with you, or leave it here for me to keep?”

Qing Chen smiled: “Leave it with you for safekeeping. It might be inconvenient for me to carry it around… I have a few things I’d like to ask. Old Shen, you’re in charge of the Secret Spy Agency’s database, so you should be the most familiar with these things.”

Old Shen said with a smile: “Of course, I’ll tell you everything my superior wants to know.”

“What exactly is Forbidden Artifact ACE-004?” Qing Chen asked, “In the external information, it’s only described as a black stone, with no mention of its specific function.”

Old Shen said: “That’s top secret. That black stone is called the True Sight Eye, but there’s more than one True Sight Eye. They are the spellcasting tools of witches… In the previous human civilization era, it was kept by witches and Ren Xiaosu respectively, and was later gifted to Hope Media. But now they are not in Hope Media’s hands, but were taken away by the Observer organization.”

“More than one?” Qing Chen was puzzled.

“Yes, there were hundreds of True Sight Eyes in the world at the time, three black ones, twelve gold ones, seventy-two red ones, and an unknown number of others. The black ones are the highest level,” Old Shen said, “It is said that they are the witches’ meditation tools and spellcasting tools, activated by spells… The most famous spells seem to be ‘Wishing you happiness’ and ‘Prosperity to the Northwest’, the others are not documented. Of course, Observer doesn’t have that many True Sight Eyes. It’s said they only have twelve in total, and it’s unclear what level they are.”

Qing Chen asked: “I heard that someone can use it to open a door and travel through time and space.”

Old Shen laughed: “Time travel is an exaggeration. At most, it’s moving from one place to another. This is the recognized function of the True Sight Eye. Rotating it clockwise ten times in any place can open a door to the place you most want to go at that moment. However, a person can only choose once in their lifetime. If someone is in a hurry to use the restroom, the door opens to a restroom. If a child likes candy, the door opens to a candy house. Afterwards, it’s too late to regret it.”

Qing Chen thought to himself, this Forbidden Artifact ACE-004 is quite interesting… He actually wanted to try where he most wanted to go, but frankly, even he didn’t know where he wanted to go.

In terms of spatial travel alone, Forbidden Artifact ACE-004 is not as useful as Forbidden Artifact ACE-008 Shadow Gate, but the function of this True Sight Eye seems to be more than that, and it doesn’t require eternal singleness.

Eternal singleness is really too daunting…

Qing Chen continued to ask: “Is there any Forbidden Artifact that can create an island at sea?”

Old Shen was stunned: “Forbidden Artifact ACE-013, Whale Island? Isn’t that thing in the Forbidden Sea? Have you seen it? No one has seen it for hundreds of years.”

Qing Chen shook his head: “No, I haven’t. It’s just a guess… By the way, Shadow told me to come here. Is there anything specific?”

A door behind Old Shen opened at this moment, and Qing Chen was stunned for a long time.

Old Shen turned to look at the smiling Qing Zhun and said, “Shadow’s orders. He said he knows you want to go to the wilderness and the Forbidden Zone to relax, and Qing Zhun is the person in the Secret Spy Agency who knows the wilderness best, so he’ll be going with you. You can ask him if you have any questions.”

Qing Zhun smiled: “Boss, long time no see.”

Qing Chen looked at Qing Zhun, who had already put on a backpack. He was once a subordinate of Intelligence Bureau One. After a long silence, he said: “…Okay, but there’s something I need to make clear. Where we go, what we do, how we do it, all have to be my call.”

Qing Zhun smiled: “No problem. You’re the Boss. You have the final say.”

…

…

Qing Chen and Qing Zhun purchased some supplies in the city and bought another backpack.

Qing Chen threw this backpack to Qing Zhun and told him to carry it.

Qing Zhun was stunned and looked at Qing Chen: “Boss, isn’t it inappropriate for me to carry two backpacks alone?”

“What’s inappropriate?” Qing Chen said matter-of-factly, “How can you let the Boss carry the bags when going out with the Boss? Don’t you agree?”

Qing Zhun gritted his teeth: “Yes!”

The two walked out of the city. To say the least, with Qing Zhun, they didn’t even have to bother going through the border management office. Qing Zhun could solve it with one phone call, and their identities weren’t even checked.

After walking for twelve hours, the two finally met Yang Yang and Zhang Mengqian in the wilderness.

“Let me introduce you. This is Yang Yang and Zhang Mengqian, and this is Qing Zhun from Intelligence Bureau One. The four of us will be traveling together this time,” Qing Chen said.

Qing Zhun looked at Zhang Mengqian with interest. His gaze at Zhang Mengqian was as if looking at a piece of jade.

Someone who can naturally resonate with the world through spiritual will, wherever they go, they will be a treasure.

The boy took two steps back: “Why are you looking at me?”

Qing Zhun smiled: “Shadow Master said you have a sixth sense. I’m just curious. By the way, are you interested in joining my Qing Clan Secret Intelligence Agency? Qing Chen, the Boss, is the deputy director of our Secret Spy Agency.”

Zhang Mengqian was stunned and looked at Qing Chen.

Qing Chen looked at Qing Zhun: “Your position isn’t high, but your tone is quite big. Can you just join the Secret Spy Agency as you say?”

Qing Zhun: “…That’s true.”

“Qing Chen, you asked us to wait here before. What are you waiting for?” Yang Yang curiously asked.

Qing Chen glanced to the north: “Don’t worry. Let’s camp in the wilderness for two days first, and then you’ll know what I’m waiting for.”

They camped there for two days and then repacked their things and waited silently.

Qing Chen glanced at his watch: “It’s here.”

A sudden, jarring whistle sounded in the wilderness.

That long-lost Steam Train circled the Federation every 27 days. The last time Qing Chen saw it, he used it to help everyone escape from the north. This time he saw it again after it had circled for a week.

Qing Chen smiled at everyone: “This time, we’ll take it. Wherever it goes, we’ll follow. We’ll get off when we want to, and if we want to set off again, we’ll wait 27 days.”

Qing Zhun suddenly said, “Taking it requires gold coins, Boss. Do you have any gold coins on you?”

“No, I’ve already contained it. I don’t need gold coins,” Qing Chen said with a smile.

At this time, the magnificent Steam Train came out of nothingness at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour. Smoke was still billowing from the chimney on its head, and the rear was filled with gold coins.

“Wow!” Xiao Mengqian looked at this magical scene. This was the mysterious world outside the city!

Qing Chen said, “Let’s go. It only stops for ten minutes. Let’s get on the train.”

With that, he walked towards the Steam Train.

However, a change occurred. This time, when the Steam Train arrived and saw him, it didn’t stop at all, but continued to drive forward!

Qing Chen was startled and rushed towards the Steam Train that was about to escape from the side: “No, it’s running away! Quickly grab the handrail outside the car!”

He carried Zhang Mengqian on his back and ran towards the Steam Train like crazy, grabbing a handrail outside a carriage before this Forbidden Artifact disappeared into nothingness again.

Qing Zhun sighed softly: “What a scarecrow. Even Forbidden Artifacts are afraid to see you. You must be a truly infuriating person…”

With that, he carried a backpack in his hand and another on his back, but he ran faster than Qing Chen.

To be honest, this was the first time he had boarded a Steam Train in this way.

The Steam Train drove into nothingness, and Qing Chen, Yang Yang, Qing Zhun, and Zhang Mengqian were hanging on the Steam Train, waiting for the light to return.

There wouldn’t be any problems driving into nothingness.

People had done this before, but the Steam Train was quite fast. Unless it’s B-Class or above, you simply couldn’t get close to it or hang on to it.

So there weren’t many people who did this, and it’s not comfortable…

No one ever expected that Qing Chen would single-handedly shock the Steam Train into changing its schedule.

The train stop was only advanced by ten minutes.

It’s okay to only be ten minutes early, because those who take the Steam Train will come early to wait.

But if Qing Chen did this a few more times, making the Steam Train arrive an hour or even a few hours early, the rules that many people have mastered might be completely useless.

In a way, Qing Chen’s approach is no different from containment, after all, in the near future, only he will be able to master the accurate train schedule…

This method is a bit damaging, but it’s quite useful.
