Chapter 1094: Main Engine Room, Finally (1/2)
“I have located the Main Engine room. I have highlighted the location on the hologram.”
“Ahh! Finally!”
The globe spun around to position itself to have China face Jiang Fei. The red dot that represented the Main Engine room was highlighted brighter than the rest.
“In China?!” Jiang Fei gasped. It was hard to believe that the Main Engine room was located in China and of all places, in the capital city!
“Sh*t! Did the military get it before us?” Jiang Fei asked. There was no proper explanation to how the Main Engine room ended up in China’s capital city.

“There is no human activity detected around the Main Engine room. I have concluded that it has yet to be discovered.”
“Good! Phew!”
Even though the Main Engine room was yet to be discovered by the military, Jiang Fei’s appearance in the capital would alert them. Excavating such a prominent object could trigger them to take action against him as the position of the crucial part of Braveheart was extremely close to one of the military bases. The gap between them was so close that it was safe to say that it was literally next door. If they had expanded their base just a little more, they would have struck gold.
“What about the Core of Life?” Jiang Fei asked. The next most important thing was the Core of Life as it was the most important piece in order to save Isabella.
“…”
0542 was quiet this time. It was odd for it to do that since 0542’s usual response was always straight to the point.
“The Core of Life could not be properly traced as its signal was being interfered. Not even the super radar system could detect its exact location. However, I am sure that it is still within China,” said 0542.

“China? Did the martial artists do this?” Jiang Fei asked a rhetorical question. When Jiang Fei first encountered the Core Storage facility that was supposed to contain the Core of Life, he had only managed to find traces of blood instead of the core itself. Someone had broken into the facility and it was likely to be Metahumans’ doing. Robots, Androids, or even Machine Lifeforms would never leave a pool of blood.
“That’s not right either… Chinese martial artists almost never get out of China. How could they be venturing into Africa to retrieve the Core of Life?” Jiang Fei asked himself. It was certain that the intruder was a Level 5 Metahuman. And if it was the Chinese, no Level 5 fighter would leave China and go all the way to Africa, all the way into the desert, and find the Core Storage facility. It seemed more likely that someone had purposely tried to search for it instead of accidentally stumbled across it.
“Argh! Why is it so complicated?!” Jiang Fei roared as he scratched his head. He had just acquire extremely accurate information, but it raised more questions than answers.
“What about the Unknowns? Did you find them? Do they have a base or something?” Jiang Fei asked, recalling the mysterious force that was proving to be a competitor in collecting parts of Braveheart.
“I have detected multiple readings. They appear to be active in many places around the world.”
0542 then turned the globe around, removing red dots that were not related to them and highlighting several more points which covered the entire globe. Almost all high radiation natural deposits of radioactive materials had their positions marked.
Could they be farming radioactive materials? Jiang Fei had a monologue. They could be like Jiang Fei, using planet Namek’s technology, and without the power supply from the Main Engine room, they had to resort to using nuclear energy.

“This point has the energy reading. It is likely that there are many of them concentrated in that position,” said 0542, interrupting Jiang Fei messy train of thought.
“In China?!”
Jiang Fei felt nauseated. The more information he received, the more convoluted the entire situation became. There were just too many pieces of information that Jiang Fei could not piece together.
