Evolving infinitely from ground zero

Shen Qinghan nodded, "Mm, I will."

Just then, Lin Zichen's phone vibrated.

He took it out and saw it was a voice call on WeChat from Yuan Dongzhi.

Since there were other people around, Lin Zichen, out of courtesy, took his phone out to the corridor to answer it.

As soon as he answered, Yuan Dongzhi's cool voice came through,

"Zi Chen, the Vice Governor in charge of the Origin Land wants to see you, where are you now?"

Vice Governor?

Hearing this title, Lin Zichen was quite surprised.

His country was named Jiuzhou.

The Governor was the most publicly prominent and powerful person in the country.

And the Vice Governor, especially the one overseeing affairs in the Origin Land, was without a doubt a figure whose status was second only to the Governor.

Above almost everyone else.

With a Biological Level that started at least from the Legendary Level.

The pinnacle of Earth's peak fighters.

Yuan Dongzhi had told Lin Zichen that, given his performance in the military special training and the Divine Plant Cult's interest in him, he would soon catch the attention of some influential figures in the country.

But Lin Zichen could never have dreamed that he would catch the attention of a Vice Governor.

This was like the saying, "The big moment has come!"

Steadying his emotions,

Lin Zichen said, "Principal Yuan, I'm currently at the Pure Human Research Institute."

"Perfect, the Vice Governor also plans to visit the Pure Human Research Institute. Just wait there, he will arrive in about half an hour."

After speaking, Yuan Dongzhi asked, "Is Liu Chuanwu at the institute?"

Lin Zichen, "He is."

Yuan Dongzhi, "Tell him to prepare the research results regarding the Pureblood Human Path, summarize a report for the Vice Governor to hear, and make it concise, with no rambling."

Lin Zichen, "Got it, I understand."

Yuan Dongzhi, "Mm, that's all I wanted to say, nothing else, hanging up now."

"Okay, Principal Yuan, goodbye."

Lin Zichen didn't hang up the voice call but silently waited for Yuan Dongzhi to hang up.

He almost never initiated hanging up when talking to someone; he always let the other party end the call.

Soon, Yuan Dongzhi ended the call, concluding the conversation.

Lin Zichen put away his phone and returned from the corridor to the living and leisure area.

As soon as he returned, Song Yuyan teased, "I say Zi Chen, why did you have to go outside to take a WeChat voice call, was it some girl looking for you?"

A girl?

Shen Qinghan's heart tightened upon hearing that.

Although she trusted Lin Zichen very much, Song Yuyan's words inevitably made her feel nervous.

The reality was Lin Zichen was just too popular with girls, with innumerable little fans, even the lofty fox women in the Origin Land wanted to take him away as their pet.

This made Shen Qinghan, who had always lacked confidence, sometimes feel very insecure, worrying that Lin Zichen might be snatched away by another girl one day.

Lin Zichen noticed that something was off with Shen Qinghan and guessed what she might be thinking.

But he said nothing about it and didn't try to reassure Shen Qinghan.

He simply told everyone, "That was Principal Yuan calling me just now."

Liu Chuanwu's eyebrows raised, "Yuan Dongzhi? What does she want with you?"

Lin Zchen, "Principal Yuan said, the Vice Governor who oversees the Origin Land will visit the institute in half an hour. "

Upon hearing this, Liu Chuanwu's eyes widened, "Who did you say is coming?!"

Lin Zichen, "The Vice Governor, the one in charge of the Origin Land."

"Huh?" Liu Chuanwu looked puzzled, "Why would such a high-ranking official want to come have a look at my rundown research institute?"

"Principal Yuan mentioned that the Vice Governor specifically requested to meet me, and also wanted to visit the institute while he's at it."

After Lin Zichen finished, he added, "It must be because I performed too well in the special training, and due to the Divine Plant Cult's high regard for me, catching the attention of the Vice Governor, and in turn, sparking his interest in the Pureblood Human Path."

"Is that so?"

Liu Chuanwu stroked his chin.

Lin Zichen, "Director, Principal Yuan wants you to have the institute's research findings on the Pureblood Human Path from over the years ready, to briefly summarize and report to the Vice Governor."

Before Liu Chuanwu could respond, Song Yuyan excitedly said, "Director, that's fantastic!"

"After all the years we've spent researching the Pureblood Human Path, a big shot is finally showing interest!"

"The hardship has finally paid off!"

As she spoke, Song Yuyan looked toward Lin Zichen with a smiling face, sentimentally saying, "Indeed, to promote the Pureblood Human Path, we need top-tier talents like you."

"The Director and I have been promoting it diligently for so long, with no results to show, treated like pariahs."

"But ever since you joined, things have improved rapidly, to the point where even the Vice Governor, a figure above millions, has started paying attention to the Pureblood Human Path."

"It feels as unreal as a dream."

As she talked, Song Yuyan's eyes began to moisten uncontrollably.

She had devoted the best ten years of her youth and the rest of her life ahead to researching the Pureblood Human Path.

The slow progress had left her all but hopeless for the future.

This had caused her deep despair.

The arrival of Lin Zichen finally gave her a glimmer of hope.

It offered her the chance to prove herself.

To demonstrate that she was not one with the crowd.

To show she was not just another foolish woman without substance.

To validate that her decision to give up on the promising path of Genetic Fusion ten years ago to pursue the theoretically based Pureblood Human Path was the right choice.
