Armor Guardians

Chapter 43 From Waste to Genius
Ding Jing glanced at Xia Qianmeng's information, then looked at Xia Qianmeng strangely, before asking casually, "Xiaomeng, are you a girl? And what's your name?"

"Well, it's a bit complicated. I'll tell you later, Sister Ding Jing." With so many people around, Xia Qianmeng was too embarrassed to reveal her secret.

"Alright, alright, remember to tell me later, don't forget." Ding Jing seemed to know Xia Qianmeng's predicament, so she didn't make things difficult for her.

Then, Ding Jing looked at the man and said, "Xiao Meng's body and talent are both fine. Now we can arrange for someone to train Xiao Meng, right?"

"That's possible, but I think our current approach is too limited. It would be a waste of her talent and armor. How about we send her to headquarters for further training?"

"That works, but it depends on Xiaomeng's decision."

Then, Ding Jing and the man both looked at Xia Qianmeng to see what her decision would be.

"Um...do we really have to go to headquarters? Where is your headquarters located?"

Xia Qianmeng did not answer immediately, but asked a question in return, because she really did not want to leave this place. Firstly, because she was familiar with this city, and secondly, because she was afraid of places where she was unfamiliar with people and things.

"The Shadow Group's headquarters is on a private island. If you want to quickly become stronger and become a powerful figure, then I recommend you go to the headquarters, because the people there are the world's top experts, and they are the best to teach you."

These were Ding Jing's words. Whether it was out of personal motives or for Xia Qianmeng's own good, she didn't care where Xia Qianmeng went, because the stronger Xia Qianmeng was, the more commission Ding Jing would receive...

Xia Qianmeng was still somewhat unaccustomed to going from a good-for-nothing to a genius, so Ding Jing's words made her feel very flattered.

However, Xia Qianmeng thought about it for a moment and decided to go. It would be good to go out and see the world; after all, constantly retreating wasn't a solution. "Okay, I'll go to headquarters to learn," was Xia Qianmeng's answer.

Upon hearing this answer, Ding Jing and the man both breathed a deep sigh of relief. They had genuinely been worried that Xia Qianmeng was sentimental and shy, and therefore wouldn't dare to go.

Half an hour later, Xia Qianmeng boarded a helicopter with the man, presumably to go to headquarters.

Perhaps because he had already regarded Xia Qianmeng as a member of the Shadow Group, the man no longer hid any secrets from her, such as his identity and some matters concerning the Shadow Group.

After talking for so long, Xia Qianmeng finally understood what kind of organization the Shadow Group was. She originally thought it was a civilian organization similar to the Black Group, but it turned out to be a global organization that took orders from all over the planet.

Because mutant beasts aren't just found in China; they're hiding all over the planet. If a beast is too powerful, the government can't eliminate it. So, the countries have to place orders with the Shadow Group, letting their combat personnel eliminate the mutant beasts in the name of the government, thus gaining official recognition.

After learning that the Shadow Group was such a powerful organization, Xia Qianmeng couldn't wait any longer. She was eager to finish her training and become a powerful armored hero!

Of course, imagination is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

When the man explained the general content of her training, Xia Qianmeng immediately became dejected. She began to doubt herself, wondering if she could really endure it.
Soon, the helicopter landed on an island. From a distance, it looked like an undeveloped green island, but in fact, it held a hidden world beneath its surface.
