Chapter 1000: New Recruit Crisis
Hidden nearby, Lin Qiye raised his eyebrows in surprise when he caught this strange fragrance.
“Such a fragrant scent… what kind of bloodline could it be?” Lin Qiye muttered to himself.
If he wasn’t mistaken, this fragrance on Fang Mo must be related to the medium she used when becoming the agent of the Great Xia God.
As Shao Pingge said at that time, for the not yet fully awakened Great Xia God, only by using certain media as tools could they transfer their power to their agents.
When Shao Pingge obtained [White Ghost], the medium she used was the Yanluo Temple. Besides that, any item or creature could serve as a medium – a jade ruyi, a sword, a pot of medicine… The medium Fang Mo used when becoming an agent must be the source of this strange fragrant bloodline.
“Coming to such a remote place to heal is indeed a smart decision.” Lin Qiye lifted his head, looking at the direction where the strange fragrance was drifting with the wind, his eyes narrowing slightly.
“However… your luck doesn’t seem to be very good.”
…
The quadrangle courtyard.
Early morning sunlight poured through the window, shining on the white bedsheet. Li Zhenzhen opened her drowsy eyes and sat up in bed.
She stared blankly at the blanket covering her and the familiar surroundings, taking several seconds to realize that this was no longer the training camp, and she didn’t need to get up early for morning training.
She lay back down in bed, planning to enjoy a rare chance to sleep in, but after tossing and turning, she couldn’t fall asleep.
She had already developed the habit of waking up early, and even if she tried to sleep now, she couldn’t.
Li Zhenzhen lay in bed with her eyes open, watching the gradually brightening sky outside the window, when a doubt suddenly arose in her heart.
Isn’t today New Year’s Eve? Why is the city still so quiet at this hour?
Is nobody planning to celebrate the New Year?
Just as she reluctantly got out of bed to prepare to wash up, a crisp phone ring sounded, showing an unfamiliar number on the caller ID.
Li Zhenzhen hesitated for a moment before answering the phone.
“Hello?”
“Hello? Is this Zhenzhen?” The voice on the other end was somewhat urgent.
“Su Yuan?” Li Zhenzhen immediately recognized Su Yuan’s voice, “Why are you calling me so early? Are you done playing mahjong?”
“Forget about mahjong, we’re in a bit of trouble right now. There are ‘Mysteries’ appearing near us. Could you call some members of the Beijing City team to help us?” Su Yuan’s voice was extremely serious.
In trouble?
Li Zhenzhen frowned, not wasting time asking what happened, but directly asked: “Where are you?”
Su Yuan gave a remote address, which was a wild mountain in the outskirts of Beijing.
“I got it, wait for me!”
Li Zhenzhen quickly got dressed, grabbed her black case, and rushed out of the room.
At this moment, two or three members of the Beijing City team had already gotten up and were busy preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
“Brother Lu!” Li Zhenzhen ran quickly to the kitchen door, “New ‘Mysteries’ have appeared, come with me quickly.”
In the kitchen, Lu Hu and Zhang Zhengting exchanged glances, both seeing the complexity in each other’s eyes.
They certainly knew what would happen in Beijing today, and they also knew there were many “Mysteries” outside, but they were equally aware that at this crucial moment, they couldn’t go out to kill “Mysteries”…
As Lu Hu was organizing his words, about to speak, a girl in a white dress floated in from outside.
Li Zhenzhen’s phone automatically transmitted Jiang Er’s voice:
“Zhenzhen, Instructor Lin sent you a message.”
A message from Instructor Lin?
Li Zhenzhen was slightly stunned.
Jiang Er extended her hand, pointing at the phone in her palm, and a message was silently transmitted to Li Zhenzhen’s phone screen.
Seeing the line of text on the screen, Li Zhenzhen was first stunned, then looked at Jiang Er in surprise:
“Instructor Jiang, did Instructor Lin really send this?”
“Mm.” Jiang Er nodded with a smile, “He wants you to go quickly.”
“Oh… okay.”
Li Zhenzhen hesitated for a moment but chose to believe the content of that message. Instead of dragging Lu Hu and others along, she rushed out alone, started the car, and roared towards the suburbs.
…
In the suburbs, wild mountain.
“How’s the situation?” Ding Chongfeng asked with furrowed brows while applying medicine to Fang Mo.
“Five ‘Pool’ level, three ‘River’ level, the closest one is less than five hundred meters from us now.” Su Yuan spoke seriously, “I’ve called all the numbers I remember, but at this hour, it seems only Zhenzhen was awake…
She should be bringing people over now, I don’t know if we can hold out until then.”
A minute ago, shortly after Fang Mo’s blood was exposed to the air, Su Yuan sensed several ‘Pool’ level “Mysteries” and one ‘River’ level “Mystery” approaching this location.
For them, this lineup of “Mysteries” was quite troublesome, so Su Yuan had to make emergency calls for help.
The first person she called was Li Zhenzhen, who lived at the 006 Squad station. Just contacting Li Zhenzhen meant they could notify the Beijing City team to come to their rescue, and their crisis would be resolved.
“Damn, how are there three ‘River’ level ‘Mysteries’ hidden in such a remote place?”
Ding Chongfeng cursed under his breath, put away the medicine bottle, took out bandages, and began quickly wrapping Fang Mo’s arm.
“You should leave first.” Fang Mo looked at everyone with a complex expression, “I’ll distract their attention briefly, then find a chance to escape.”
“You’re injured, how could you possibly escape from so many ‘Mysteries’ attacking you alone?”
Ding Chongfeng shook his head, “Zhenzhen will bring people soon, we just need to buy time.”
Fang Mo pressed her lips together, remaining silent.
Ding Chongfeng skillfully finished bandaging Fang Mo’s arm, quickly stood up, and said to the Su Yuan siblings: “Su Yuan, which direction has the weakest life wave from the ‘Mysteries’?”
“Southeast.”
“Let’s go, break through that way!”
These “Mysteries” were surrounding them from all directions. If they just stayed put, they would eventually be trapped with all escape routes sealed off, then be surrounded and killed by the three ‘River’ level “Mysteries”. So the best method was to keep moving.
As long as they didn’t leave this wild mountain area too far, when the Beijing City team arrived, they could still quickly find them.
The four people moved without any hesitation, rushing towards the southeast, which was the direction up the wild mountain. From the silhouettes of the dense forest, two ‘Pool’ level “Mysteries” came charging out, roaring as they crashed towards them.
