Chapter 117 (2/2)

“Privileged what? It’s just standard equipment for inspectors. Every inspector has two basic teleporting authorities. One’s toward the nearest rendezvous point, in your case that means here—this big mansion; a second one is a predetermined star station—by the default it’s the nearest space port from the field of mission. Unless circumstances call for it, try not to use teleporting too frequently during short, or non-time-critical missions. The reasons are; one, it’s not good for your health; two, doing the things the old way is always a good way to increase your experience, especially a rookie like you.”

Hao Ren kept nodding. But his mind was already thinking about how he would make use of the new function. The first channel was supposedly a convenient way to report back to his superior, but it would come in handy in a desperate escape just like the battle with the demon hunters yesterday—of course that would turn into a laughing stock for Raven 12345 too. He hadn’t had an idea about the second exit point. His knowledge about space port was only coming from Hollywood’s blockbusters. But that wasn’t the point, all he cared was the teleporting function itself.

He had a few experiences of teleporting and was awed by its convenience. Now he finally had the chance of operating one himself.

“You look excited…” Raven 12345 smiled as she looked at Hao Ren, tapping her temple. “Besides, something about adding favorite points. What I’ve told you about was the two default points of open authority. You can add more points if you want to. It might come in handy, who know? Just tell the MDT, it will do the rest. But there’s a caveat: the MDT must memorize on-site. It can’t set places where it has never been to into its memory.”

Shivering out of excitement, Hao Ren plucked the MDT down from the air and shove it back into his pocket. Once again, the thrill of having a new toy filled him. He started to feel surreal: it was a stark contrast to the last ‘paycheck’ which seemed to be in bad shape and was given in reluctance, this time Raven 12345 had been brisk and generous in providing a useful resource with high discretionary power attached. Hao Ren felt it was like finding out he was the kin of a rich Saudi uncle, and the uncle had died.

“May I ask, why the good perk now?

“…In fact I should have given you last week. Just that I’ve forgotten.”

Now Hao Ren felt his rich uncle had donated all his wealth before he died.

“Is it capable of ferrying passengers?” Hao Ren seized the opportunity to as many questions as he could as he knew that Raven 12345 would have never elaborated if not requested. He knew too well the b*tch.

“Of course,” Raven nodded. “anyone you choose within five-hundred meters radius, the MDT will lock on them. No quantity, quality, or size limitations. But I’ve got to warn you: although the level of teleporting technology of the empire is pretty mature right now, the MDT was meant to be used by the Xi Ling disciples like me. Most of its existing functions are downgraded versions of the military. Though the technology has been refined many times, the teleporting function still pose a health hazard to users especially women, the young and the old, so…”

“So don’t use it on the old and children, right? I know.”

“No. I mean you better stay away after the ride in case they throw up.”

Hao Ren at a lost for words.

The Goddess was humorous as much as comical.
