Chapter 69: Enter

Enzo nodded in understanding.

Special copper.

Who knew what benefits it had, but it seemed Miya wanted it.

If she wanted it, then he would do anything to give it to her.

"Come on, help me become a Copper Warrior," Enzo said, suddenly becoming excited, which surprised Miya.

"What’s gotten into you? I haven’t even finished explaining," she said.

"No, you’ve already given me so much. I get excited whenever I can give you something," Enzo replied.

Miya froze for a moment upon hearing that before smiling.

Soon after, she pulled him toward the building in the center of Area 51.

In an instant, they landed in front of its entrance.

The lasers aimed at them didn’t fire at all.

When they were high above, everything had looked tiny. But after reaching the ground, Enzo realized that the man sitting beside the building’s entrance was as tall as eight meters.

Even while sitting, he was still enormous.

He simply sat there, leaning back and looking as if he were lost in thought.

’Since when are there giant humans like this?’ Enzo wondered.

At this moment, a middle-aged man ran out of the building to approach Miya.

He was accompanied by two tough-looking men.

"Lady Stanley, why didn’t you inform me beforehand if you were coming?" the middle-aged man asked in a friendly tone.

Juan Rivera.

Of course, he was the CIA Director.

As the director, he had no reason to hide his identity.

Enzo had seen him on TV countless times.

It seemed he was somewhat acquainted with Miya.

"I just happened to be passing by and suddenly needed your help. Otherwise, do you think I would come all the way to a barren place like this?" she replied.

"But this is quite interesting. So you have giants now," she added, glancing at the huge man, who finally looked at Miya with confusion, apparently wondering who she was.

"It’s just a little trick," the CIA Director replied. "There are no side effects, but it still can’t help with cultivation. At most, its strength is only equivalent to Level 2. If used on a Cultivator, they can shrink their body back to normal, but we haven’t been able to do that with ordinary humans."

"Hmph, ridiculous," Miya said.

"Is there something you want?" the CIA Director asked.

"Yes. Help my husband become a Copper Warrior," Miya replied indifferently, slightly surprising the director.

His gaze shifted toward Enzo.

Judging from his eyes, Enzo felt that the man wasn’t unfamiliar with him. Perhaps he had seen his photos several times, or maybe even watched videos of him.

"Are you sure?" the CIA Director asked Miya.

"Do I need to make myself any clearer?" Miya was displeased by the question.

The director cleared his throat apologetically.

"Fine. Follow me," he said before heading back into the building.

Enzo and Miya followed him.

The building had far too many corridors, and they simply entered one that stretched a very long distance.

The doors on either side were tightly shut, while people occasionally hurried past them.

"Lady, regarding what happened in City Z, all I can do is apologize," the director said as he led the way.

He should have been referring to Oliver.

Although it had only just happened, Erick had probably already sent the director a complete report.

"You know this isn’t really a problem for the Stanley Family. We will still be a powerful family capable of doing whatever we want," Miya replied.

"Yes, indeed," the director answered with a forced smile.

Miya was simply reminding him that hoping this incident would somehow bind the Stanley Family and limit their actions was completely impossible.

"Here!" He stopped in front of a door.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

He knocked on the door.

When it opened, a woman around the same age as Miya appeared. She had brown hair and wore a long white lab coat.

She was extremely surprised when she saw the director, her mouth falling open.

And when she saw Miya, she was even more shocked.

"Oh, Nora. So you’re here," Miya said with a chuckle.

"Miya..." the woman replied nervously.

They seemed to be quite familiar with each other. Perhaps they had even been classmates.

The CIA Director seemed to know this, so he wasn’t particularly surprised.

"Lady Stanley, Nora only joined us about half a year ago. She is currently researching the Metal Army in an attempt to find a solution to overcome its side effects," he explained.

"I joined because I needed money for living expenses," Nora quietly told Miya.

"That’s understandable. You need money because you have a lot of family members to support," Miya said with another chuckle.

"Can we come in?" she asked, and Nora looked at the director.

"Nora, help Lady Stanley’s husband become a Copper Warrior," the director instructed.

Nora immediately looked at Enzo beside Miya.

She seemed slightly surprised by how young he was.

Enzo simply nodded with a smile.

Nora then opened the door wider, revealing a large white room.

Enzo saw numerous large glass capsules filled with copper-colored liquid, each containing an animal.

There were all kinds of animals, from cows and pigs to dogs and crocodiles.

All of them had yellowish skin that looked like copper.

There were also around ten scientists, most of whom were examining the copper-colored liquid through microscopes.

They all stopped instinctively when the door opened wider, just as surprised as Nora had been upon seeing the director.

However, they didn’t recognize Miya.

Even Miya showed an interested look as she gazed around the white room.

She also wore a strange smile.

"Believe me, no matter how hard you try, it’s impossible to use science to compete with Cultivators," she suddenly said to the director.

The director smiled bitterly.

That was his hunch, but the elite—and even he himself, who was unable to cultivate—never gave up.

BANG!

Suddenly, a man slammed his hand hard against the table.

"What makes you say that? That’s only because you know so little about the limitless possibilities of science," he said coldly.
