Novel Full Chapter 300: The Red Nursery Chain
Chapter 300: Chapter 300: The Red Nursery Chain
The captured relay handler’s name was Du Qile.
That was probably not his birth name.
The True Identity Reflection Mirror showed two borrowed identity layers, one false charity persona, and one oath-sealed Blood Sun service identity. Beneath those, fragments of an ordinary man remained, but they were damaged by years of deliberate self-partition.
He had not been a high-ranking Blood Sun disciple.
That made his survival more useful.
High-ranking members carried stronger self-destruction seals. Du Qile carried layered collapse triggers, but the Sovereign Network Command Suppression Crystal, Self That Cannot Be Owned Core, and Future Obligation Severing Blade had delayed them long enough for containment.
Interrogation required care.
Yu Qingmei led the legal side.
Lin Xian’er reviewed contract bindings.
Qin Mo mapped oath structures.
Qin Yuheng observed quietly, speaking only when necessary.
Du Qile laughed weakly when he realized he was still alive.
"You should have killed me."
Qin Yuheng looked at him.
"Why?"
"Because now they will erase everyone connected."
"They will try."
Du Qile’s smile twitched.
"You think cutting one shrine matters?"
"No."
That answer unsettled him.
Qin Yuheng continued, "One node matters because it shows structure."
Du Qile’s eyes changed.
For the first time, he looked afraid.
The interrogation revealed pieces.
The Red Nursery Chain was not a single organization. It was a network of overlapping criminal, cultic, commercial, and extremist groups who shared methods:
Dream-script marking.
Talent compatibility testing.
False scholarship invitations.
Child-path observation dust.
Guarantor clauses.
Borrowed voice lures.
Identity-masked courier routes.
Talent root appraisal.
Future potential debt contracts.
Blood Sun Hall used the network when convenient. Some nodes worshiped false solar authority. Some cared only about profit. Some believed they were "cultivating future elites." Some sold children to illegal talent markets.
That was worse than a single enemy.
A single enemy could be destroyed.
A network of incentives had to be dismantled piece by piece.
Du Qile gave three names before his deeper memory seals collapsed:
1. Red Thread Charity House
2. Golden Bud Talent Garden
3. Ash Bell Courier Shrine
The first two were likely active nodes.
The third might already be abandoned.
He also gave one phrase:
Children are roads before they choose direction.
Qin Yuheng had heard it before.
Now it was confirmed as doctrine used inside the Red Nursery Chain.
Qin Mo looked sick.
Lin Xian’er’s expression was colder than ever.
"This is market ideology, cult ideology, and family ambition mixed together."
Yu Qingmei nodded.
"That makes it resilient."
The emergency council convened.
This time, the Council Without Crown Core was activated.
The question: how to respond without Qin Yuheng becoming central ruler of a regional purge?
The answer came from the Thirteenth Gate framework.
A task coalition formed:
Academy Protection Division: child safety and healing.
Market Integrity Cell: Lin Xian’er’s domain.
Legal Evidence Group: Central Academy and province authorities.
Route Suppression Team: military scouts and local guards.
Shadow Containment: Qin family Silent Heaven support, unofficial but coordinated.
Strike Team: assigned per target, not always Qin Yuheng.
Qin Yuheng would lead only the most dangerous operations involving false sun, shadow-road, or high-level child-path corruption.
This prevented dependence.
It also allowed simultaneous action.
The first target chosen was Red Thread Charity House.
Not immediately.
They would gather evidence first.
Meanwhile, Qin Yuheng needed to continue climbing.
Because if he stopped entirely, his own growth stalled. And the enemies above Mo Cangyan remained beyond current reach.
Floor 132 file arrived that night.
[Floor 132: Star-Iron Giant Ravine]
Type:
Direct combat / giant-class enemy / rare metal vein / equipment foundation.
Estimated Duration:
1 Tower day.
Warning:
A weapon strong enough to carry command must survive impact before meaning.]
Qin Mo read it and looked at the Command Weapon Embryo stored in sealed inventory.
"Equipment floor."
Tie Zhenshan, who had joined the reward review, leaned forward immediately.
"Star-Iron Giant Ravine may provide material for the weapon embryo."
Qin Yuheng looked at the file.
After Floor 131’s siege, after the first network strike, after the Red Nursery Chain revelation, the Tower offered a forging-combat floor.
Good.
They needed stronger weapons.
Not symbols.
Weapons.
Before entry, Qin Yuheng opened his private status again.
[Qin Yuheng]
Level: 29
Class:
SSS Grade Tri-Gate Thunder War Commander
Current Focus:
Anti-network warfare
Coalition command
Command weapon foundation
False sun countermeasures
Sibling protection
Hidden Talent:
Primordial Origin Evolution
- Quantity Multiplication
- Quality Enhancement
- Talent Evolution locked
Current Major Need:
Combat power that can match increasingly high-level threats without relying on bloodline awakening.
That final line mattered.
His bloodline remained sealed.
Level 1000 was far away.
Enemies were growing stronger.
The answer was not premature inheritance.
The answer was better foundation, better weapons, better teamwork, and smarter use of Primordial Origin Evolution.
Tie Zhenshan gave him one instruction before Floor 132.
"If you find star-iron giant heart metal, do not waste it. Bring it back. Do not let Qin Mo turn it into a defensive spoon."
Qin Mo looked offended.
"A defensive spoon could be revolutionary."
"No."
Qin Yuheng smiled faintly.
Then he entered the Tower.
Floor 132 opened inside a ravine beneath falling stars.
Huge metallic footsteps shook the ground.
From the darkness ahead, a giant made of star-iron lifted its head.
The next battle would not be about contracts, councils, or children.
It would be about impact.
And Qin Yuheng was ready to strike.
