The promotion and the church took Tianyang the entire morning.
He had lunch at a decent restaurant in Uptown before heading to the Nightcrawler headquarters.
As soon as I entered the team dormitory, I saw Han Shu.
The captain was still the same, with a cigarette between his teeth and an electronic board in his hand, not knowing what he was looking at.
"team leader!"
Tianyang's powerful shout almost made Han Shu lose his grip on the electronic board. The boy glanced at the electronic board and seemed to see a woman showing off her beautiful legs.
It turns out the captain is not at work... .
Han Shu quickly turned off the electronic board and scratched his messy and rough hair: "You're back, eh, your aura seems to have changed, didn't you advance?"
Tianyang nodded and responded with a smile.
Han Shu blew out a smoke ring and said, "Kun Lan also advanced. Are young people nowadays so desperate? I feel like I can retire now."
Tianyang smiled politely but did not respond.
"correct."
Han Shu straightened his body and said, "Get ready. We have a mission in a few days. We have to go to the Reverse Realm."
Tianyang nodded: "No problem, I have rested for a while and now I am in good condition."
Han Shu took down the cigarette and smiled meaningfully: "The preparation I mentioned is not about this."
Tianyang asked in surprise: "What does the captain mean?"
Han Shu dusted off his cigarette ashes and said, "You and Kun Lan are both already at rank 5, so we will assign two or three team members to you."
"You need to learn in advance how to be a Night Walker captain."
Tian Yang was surprised and said, "But Captain, you said not long ago that Kun Lan and I are not suitable to be captains for the time being. Why did you change your mind now?"
Han Shu looked helpless: "I don't want to do this either, but the fortress is planning to expand the three systems including our Night Walker. Therefore, guys like you who have reached rank 5 can no longer serve as team members."
"You need to play your role and start to take charge. Even though the timing is not right yet, this is the only way."
"Also, it looks like we'll have to carry out a major operation soon, and we're currently mobilizing supplies for that."
Tianyang couldn't help but frown. He had just conquered a secret realm not long ago. How come there was another major action so soon
Even if it is to speed up the pace of development, the pace is too fast. Can the fortress withstand such consumption
Footsteps were heard.
Xiao Niao and his men also came. During the conversation, Tian Yang learned that the Yun family was tracking down a man named "Boss Hong". This man gathered helpers for Jiu Ling, but he did not show up on the night of the operation.
After Jiu Ling's death, his men were captured by the Yun family. Through interrogation, they learned that the action against Yun Ze was commissioned by someone.
Unfortunately, apart from Jiu Ling, it seems that the only person who knows the employer is 'Boss Hong'.
"It won't be easy to track down this matter."
Xiao Niao spoke indignantly, hating the unidentified client: "That 'Boss Hong' plays a role similar to a middleman, contacting the mercenary group for those in need. This person must have more than one identity."
"Moreover, this incident happened in the Black Star Fort occupied area. It is very difficult to investigate in that area even for our Yun family."
Tian Yang nodded and said, "This may be the main reason why the client chose to attack the Fourth Young Master in the Black Star Fort occupied area."
As he spoke, he thought of "gold", but he was not sure whether this matter was planned by Huang Jin.
If this is the case, then the power of gold must be taken seriously.
Maybe I can test him next time at the secret party.
The next party is just two days away.
the next day.
After breakfast, the boy went to Tianqing College. He found Lao Xu, who introduced him to a lecturer.
The lecturer named Qiming is a middle-aged man in his early forties with average looks, but he is very elegant.
Old Xu introduced that the lecturer was born in a small family and received a good education since childhood. His father once held an important position in the strategic department, so the lecturer was regarded as his father's successor and received targeted training.
Unfortunately, the family fell into decline and his father, who was once an official, died of a serious illness. However, Lecturer Qiming had a solid academic foundation and was absorbed by the Strategy Department. He also opened courses in the academy to train strategic advisers for the Strategy Department and even several other systems.
The strategic course is not open to the public, but Tianyang is a night walker, so he obtained a degree after registering and paying for it himself.
Now, the boy was sitting in a relatively empty classroom, listening to the lecture with people from the Strategic Department and other systems.
Standing on the podium, the middle-aged lecturer spoke in a deep and powerful voice: "The so-called strategy and tactics are a series of strategies formulated on the premise of victory, based on the clear data of our side, including but not limited to resources and manpower, and the maximum extent of enemy intelligence, and the understanding and mastery of the battlefield environment!"
“No matter what kind of strategy it is, it includes three aspects of work: before the war, during the war, and after the war.”
"Pre-war work includes, but is not limited to, coordinating our data, gathering intelligence on our opponents, and even spreading rumors and guiding public opinion, creating conditions that are favorable to us at all levels."
"In battle, we need to accurately grasp all the details on the battlefield and quickly and effectively resolve all the variables that appear on the battlefield to ensure that the overall strategy will not change or even deviate greatly."
"When the battle is over, in order to consolidate the results and pave the way for the next operation, we must maximize the use of the hard-earned results. Use them to inspire our own personnel or weaken the enemy's fighting spirit."
"Next, I will divide these three aspects into several classes and elaborate on them in detail..."
Tianyang took notes seriously and asked questions when he didn't understand something. He raised his hand so often that he worried whether he would annoy the lecturer.
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged lecturer admired Tianyang's serious learning attitude very much, and after class, he gave Tianyang a book on strategy and encouraged him to study on his own.
Circle the parts you don’t understand and ask him again in class and he will give you the answers.
There were no classes for the next two days, and the boy spent his time reading books and training.
That evening.
Tianyang, as the 'God of Death', stepped into the lower city and headed for the Hunger Ball.
Arriving at the destination, Bidou, as always, humbly waited for every guest who came to the party.
Tianyang, who had missed an episode, nodded slightly when he saw this man.
"Good evening, Mr. Death." Bidou's face was still pale and sick.
He smiled awkwardly, "The party is about to start, please follow me."
He led Tianyang to the room, and on the way, he whispered: "Mr. Death, there are many suspicious people who are asking about you recently."
"It is important to note that some outsiders recruited by Iron Wall may plan adverse actions against you."
Tian Yang made a nonchalant voice in the mask: "I have heard about this matter."
Bidou smiled and said, "I think so too."
It is not difficult to see from this sentence that Bidou already knew about his last visit to Gray Market, and knew that Red Chimney had given a similar reminder.
But he still gave the reminder, it was necessary, after all, Death was an important customer.
Moreover, based on his previous performances, this guest had even attracted the attention of his superiors.
Hungry Dance will not hesitate to express goodwill to such customers, and is even willing to provide a certain degree of help when the other party needs it.
Walking into the party room, Tianyang saw three new faces.
Gold was not there, and neither was Smiley. Even Steel, who I had only met once before, was nowhere to be seen.
There were three guests sitting in the room today, two men and one woman, each wearing a white mask with waves painted on it, a fox mask with a strange and seductive feeling, and a lifelike old man mask.
"Let me introduce you. These three are 'Mr. Hai', 'Ms. Fox', and 'Butler'."
Bidou took a step back to show respect: "And this is Mr. 'Death'."
The woman wearing a fox mask was the first to exclaim, "You are the 'Grim Reaper', Mr. Grim Reaper, I wonder if you will accept the assassination commission."
"accept."
Tianyang responded in a hoarse voice, briefly and forcefully: "But it has to be the target I'm interested in."
This condition allows the young man to freely choose whether to accept the commission without being bound by anything, and it is also in line with the style of the Grim Reaper.
"Target of interest."
Miss Fox chewed on this sentence carefully and replied in a happy tone: "I understand."
The other two men did not speak, and the "butler" even closed his eyes.
But they were all observing Tianyang, recalling the information about the god of death and comparing it with the person in front of them.
"Everyone, if there are no other questions, the party can begin."
At Bidou's reminder, Tianyang sat on the chair, and then the atmosphere in the room became softer. Waiters brought wine or tea, and even pushed in a food cart for the guests to eat at any time.
"My master needs a large number of guards, servants and skilled chefs. Who can provide the above personnel?" The 'butler' gentleman spoke first, as if he was a real butler.
But it is also possible that he is the so-called 'master'. Tianyang thought so and let his thoughts wander.
However, would hiring guards, servants and chefs for a secret party be considered an exaggeration? Or was it the "butler" testing the party's power and paving the way for the subsequent "transactions"
If this is the case, the 'Butler' is indeed a cautious person.
Mr. Hai responded with a strange accent that did not belong to the surrounding area: "I can provide the people you need, and my chef is very good at preparing seafood dishes."
