After an inexplicable attack, Ling Feng and his group had finally returned to the Divine Gate base without any harm.
The base of Divine Gate was hidden beneath a small mountain, surrounded by the top experts of Divine Gate on guard. The interior was interconnected so that if any problem arose, they could retreat at a moment's notice.
Half a year had passed since his last visit to Divine Gate, and naturally, Ling Feng's feelings were quite complex. Here lay his darkest and most oppressive memories, his most painful and fearful recollections, and the resolute camaraderie of brothers sharing life and death!
To tell the truth, during that counterattack, Ling Feng and his men had no chance of winning. What they wanted was actually to break free from the control of the Mad Doctor, to escape this desperate fate!
It was precisely this courage to rush towards the flame like moths that allowed Ling Feng and his men to succeed, to truly break free from their fate, to truly gain control of their destinies!
Seeing those brothers who had fought bloodily alongside him again, Ling Feng opened his heart and revealed a happy smile on his face.
Back at the base, all the brothers stationed at the base came out to greet their big brother; each one of them greeted Ling Feng with gratitude and respect.
"Where are the researchers?" Ling Feng walked through the Divine Gate base, did not see any researchers, and couldn't help but ask.
Catherine, staying by Ling Feng's side, said, "I have arranged those researchers in a safe place, as after all, you guys don't have a good impression of them. I was worried some brothers wouldn't resist acting against them, so I..."
Ling Feng nodded, "Your concern is correct. If it weren't for your intervention, I would have wanted to kill all those researchers at that time."
Catherine took Ling Feng's hand and said, "But if we want to completely resolve your problem, we still need their research now. Moreover, we have recently been cooperating with the Johnson family. I believe we will soon be able to unravel the secrets of genetics, and then you can..."
Ling Feng smiled, "Catherine, thank you!"
"I am your woman, doing all this for you is only natural!" Catherine said softly.
"However... are you really sure that the Johnson family will cooperate with us?" Ling Feng couldn't help asking, "Those big European families are a bunch of people who eat others without spitting out bones. Though Miss Johnson Joe gives us a very friendly image, I don't really trust her!"
Catherine said cheerily, "Don't worry, I have also teamed up with the Dust Research Institute. The Johnson family definitely won't offend the Dust Research Institute!"
"That's good to hear." Ling Feng nodded. By a fortuitous coincidence, Ling Feng had saved the head of the Dust Research Institute, which led to Divine Gate establishing a good relationship with the Dust Research Institute. Otherwise, with the capability of Divine Gate, it wouldn't have caught the attention of the Dust Research Institute!
Even though Divine Gate was strong, it was only built on the research of the Mad Doctor, and however strong the Mad Doctor was, he was just one person, who only had a deep knowledge in gene research, while other organizations simply didn't conduct gene experiments as ruthlessly as the Mad Doctor did.
"Ling Feng, it's almost time!" Catherine looked at the time and said, "Everyone has prepared a welcoming feast for you. I think everyone is waiting for us now!"
The return of Ling Feng had plunged the Divine Gate base into a sea of joy; Ling Feng's welcoming feast soon turned into a grand celebration for everyone.
Almost everyone took turns toasting Ling Feng. Ling Feng welcomed all comers, fending off challenger after challenger. In the end, Ling Feng actually took the initiative, and by the end, nearly everyone was tipsy, including Ling Feng himself.
Although everyone was very strong and could even force the alcohol out of their bodies, since the brothers were reunited, they naturally wouldn't do something so mood-killing.
"Haha, you guys still want to challenge me!" Ling Feng held a bottle of alcohol and looked at the ones lying on the ground, laughing wildly, "I tell... tell you, as your big brother, my drinking capacity is... is not something you can compete with! Anyone else who disagrees, stand up and drink!"
Aiven had already hugged the wine jar and rolled under the table. White Bear had eaten and drunk his fill long ago, lying on the side and snoring heavily. Even Pu Li with his zombie face, after drinking too much, rambled on like a chatterbox, squatting in the corner with a wine jar, mumbling something unclear.
The other brothers were all heavily drunk too, leaning and hugging each other in pairs, showing no sign of their usual strong demeanor—just a bunch of drunkards!
Catherine had only drunk a little. She looked at the messy scene with a bitter smile. She had anticipated this situation, but what she didn't expect was that it would be much crazier than she imagined!
They had drunk for more than four hours at this feast. Apart from Catherine and a few brothers in charge of keeping watch, everyone else lay on the ground.
"Big sis, you take big brother to rest!" one of the brothers said with a laugh, "I'm really envious that they can drink like this, the unfortunate ones of us still have to keep watch around."
"Thank you for your hard work!" Catherine said, "The rest of the people... "
"Let the rest of them just lie here!" the man said with a laugh, "We're all used to it."
Catherine nodded and then helped Ling Feng towards the room. On the way, Ling Feng kept muttering, "Don't run, kid, keep drinking... see if I don't drink you under the table!"
"Drink more, and you'll truly become an alcoholic!" Catherine said with a bitter smile and shook her head, then helped Ling Feng into the bedroom.
Ling Feng lay on the bed, and before Catherine could get up, he grabbed her and pinned her beneath him, "Catherine, you are mine, you will always be mine! I won't let you escape from my hands!"
Catherine's body trembled, then she gently looked at Ling Feng's face and softly said, "Ling Feng, you are the only man for me, Catherine. I'm stuck with you for life. I won't go anywhere, I will always be by your side... "
As Ling Feng's consciousness gradually returned to his body, he found himself with a splitting headache. It had been a long time since he had truly been drunk! As an assassin, maintaining a clear mind was most important!
But it was precisely because of the reunion with his brothers that Ling Feng had let himself go and drank to such an extent.
"Ow, my head hurts so much!" Ling Feng tried to rub his head but found a soft body lying next to him, and his arm buried deep within something.
"Catherine!" Ling Feng turned to look at the woman sleeping next to him, his eyes filled with tenderness.
As his first woman, Ling Feng actually felt quite guilty towards Catherine.
"Awake?" Catherine woke up due to Ling Feng's movement, "How are you now? Do you have a headache?"
