Chapter 169: Ready to hit the road

Views:

The next morning, Xu Le woke up from exercising.

Mu Yue was in very good condition last night. I wonder if it was because he was not distracted by his cultivation.

Xu Le estimated that the effect of last night was at least twice that of his usual practice.

Unfortunately, he is a warlock after all, and it is impossible for him to do other things without being distracted.

"Okay, it's almost time, let's go back."

"good."

The two of them didn't waste any time, they got on their tricycles and headed towards the city gate.

At the city gate, Xu Le and his companion were stopped.

Ai Li showed his ID, and the guard was stunned for a moment before immediately transferring the two of them to the staff passage.

Although it also requires mental energy testing, disinfection and the like, the employee channel is undoubtedly much faster than the ordinary channel.

"Sir, please follow me."

"good."

Because two people were staying overnight, the concept was completely different from one person staying overnight, so after undergoing mental energy detection and ancient sound pollution detection, Xu Le and his friends were allowed to enter the city.

After entering the city, Xu Le added 2 yuan worth of coal to the tricycle and then drove the tricycle to the butcher's shop.

After returning the car, Xu Le began to think about brainwashing Rewi Alley.

Not to mention becoming one of my own, at least I have to make sure that she won't tell anyone about my affairs.

What is the reason

"Is Miss Ai Li free these days?"

"I have normal tomb security work. What's the matter?"

"Our studio has developed a very special piece of equipment, so we may conduct a field exploration mission to test this equipment next."

When Ai Li heard Xu Le say this, his brows immediately frowned.

"You promised me that you would do it in 5 days, but now it's 4 and a half days. I have to go on the tomb mission in 4 and a half days.

You are going to go on a pioneer mission now. If the mission doesn’t go smoothly, you won’t be able to come back in four and a half days. I won’t be able to explain to Zhang Nuoan if that happens.”

"I know, that's why I asked Miss Ai Li if she was free. We can't stop the research in our studio.

If we fail to deliver by the end of the year, our studio license will be revoked.

So I would like to ask Miss Ai Li for help. Didn't you say before that I could ask you for help? With your ability, if you are willing to help, the progress of the development mission will definitely be very fast.

Isn’t this killing two birds with one stone? "

Hearing Xu Le's request, Ai Li frowned slightly.

Although Zhang Nuoan asked her to keep an eye on Xu Le, she was not going to be his personal bodyguard!

She has her own job, and at most she can provide close protection for Xu Le when he goes to Joshua's Tomb.

If you need help, you can ask her for help...

"Well, if it doesn't work, forget it. If you can't come back by then, please ask Miss Ai Li to tell Director Zhang Nuoan to wait a few more days."

"No, that's fine. I'll go with you. You're here to test the research equipment. There's no difficulty requirement, right?"

"Yes, it's just for testing equipment when exploring the wild. There are no other requirements for difficulty."

"Then you can choose a simpler mission."

"That's right, thank you Ms. Ai Li." Xu Le's mouth corners slightly raised.

"You're welcome. I don't want you to take up too much of my time."

"Of course not. You go back to work first. I'll go back to the studio to give instructions, and then I'll go to the Law Enforcer Hall to find you. Okay?"

"good."

After the two parted, Xu Le hurried back to the studio.

In Levis's laboratory, Xu Le saw Levis sleeping on the table.

The sound of Xu Le pushing the door startled him. He immediately sat up and said hysterically:

"Don't worry, it will succeed this time."

Xu Le looked at Levis and touched him cautiously:

"Brother Li, are you okay?"

Levis is a man with a story, but Xu Le also understands that every man has a story in his heart.

Unfortunately, he had no wine and didn't want to hear Levis' story.

"Oh, Xu Le, I succeeded in making another masking device, but failed twice again."

"You did it three more times? Have you not slept since yesterday?"

"Didn't you just sleep for a while?" Levis said with lifeless eyes.

"Brother Li, go back and have a rest. If you continue like this, I'm afraid you'll die suddenly."

"I'm fine. You don't know that when I was young, I gave her... Well, forget it. It's not a glorious past, and there's nothing to brag about."

"Go and rest."

"It's okay, I'll go get some wine from my great-grandmother. I haven't had a drink in a long time, ha!"

Levis' condition was a little bad, not the kind of bad that was decadent, but rather it seemed like he was overly excited.

The mental shield seemed to give him great confidence. I wonder what he had experienced before.

"Brother Li, I may need to apply for a pioneer mission to go to the wild this afternoon, so I'll take the ready-made shield on your desk.

Here is 2,400 yuan. I will be away for the next few days. If you need crafting materials and moonstone, just go to the material store at the corner of the street and buy them.

If you don’t have enough money, you can buy on credit, got it?”

"Buying on credit?" Levis had never done this before and even found it a little hard to understand.

"How could someone give us credit for no reason?"

"If the money is not enough, just say that Xu Le asked you to get the goods first, and I will pay you later. Just remember it."

Levis looked at Xu Le in shock. Why was he so familiar with the place after only being here for a few dozen days than he had been here for decades

"I understand. I'll try my best..."

"No, Brother Li, don't save money, this is definitely not the time to save money.

If you don't have enough money, just buy it on credit. Don't worry, I will take care of the money issues in the future. Just do your research well."

Xu Le's confidence infected Levis, and he nodded heavily to Xu Le.

"good."

After Xu Le left the studio, a middle-aged man in a suit and a top hat followed the sign and came to the door of the Rose Studio.

It was Gan who came looking for Xu Le.

The door was not closed. After Gan knocked on the door, Yi Xiaoya's hoarse voice appeared in the living room.

"Hehehe, another lost warlock has come here. Not a very handsome guy, are you here to look for a job as well?"

Little guy

Although his age could not be compared with that of the old lady in front of him, Gan felt that the title of "little one" was not really suitable for him now.

"Hello, ma'am. I'm here to see a friend or disciple of mine, his name is Xu Le."

"Xu Le, he's on a pioneering mission in the wild. If you want to find him, it will probably take a few days."

"Is that so? If he comes back, could you please let him know and give this to him?"

Gan politely placed a card with the address on the table.

From beginning to end, he never got too close.

The warlock's intuition told him that this house was a little special, and the old lady in front of him was also very special.

"I will tell him about your matter and tell him when he comes back."

"Thank you, ma'am."

After Gan finished speaking, he took off his hat and bowed.

Smart people would be polite enough to an unknown strong person like Yi Xiaoya.

But when Gan was about to leave, Yi Xiaoya suddenly said:

"Don't you really want to sit for a while? After all, the road of destiny is not easy to walk."

Gan was slightly stunned, then turned around and looked at Yi Xiaoya. After a few seconds of silence, he said:

"You should sit for a while, so I'm sorry to bother you."

"Hehehe, I haven't had any friends in a long time!"

Yi Xiaoya burst into laughter and, rarely, addressed herself as "old man".

After leaving the studio, Xu Le went straight to the hotel where Wang Shu and the others were staying.

After the last negotiation, Xu Le went directly to Room 306 and knocked on the door.

"Brother Shu, it's me."

The person who opened the door was not Wang Shu, but Ge Sini.

At this time, Ge Sini was only wearing a vest on her upper body and only a pair of underwear on her lower body.

She was sweating profusely, and Wang Shu inside was in a similar situation. He was shirtless and sweating profusely.

"Brother Shu... you look so excited."

Could Xu Le say that he was a little envious

Even when Brother Shu is looking silly, there will always be mercenary girls who will travel around the world with him.

And what about him? Well, if you must say, he has plenty of opportunities, but those women are too troublesome.

"Don't think too much. We are exercising. I have been very proactive but he doesn't appreciate it. He is like a piece of wood."

Ge Sini spread her hands, showing a helpless expression.

Wang Shu wiped off his sweat with a towel and asked:

"What do you mean?"

"Accompany me on a mission."

"Okay." Wang Shu agreed immediately.

But Gu Sini on the side was unwilling.

"Hey, Ashu, the group will also go to take on a mission tomorrow? If we leave now, what should we do if the boss asks about it tomorrow?"

"Why don't you just go?"

"Me alone? No, no, I have to follow you."

If it were before, Ge Sini wouldn't be too worried that Wang Shu would run away.

But after Xu Le came, she had a strong sense of crisis and was always worried that Xu Le would take Wang Shu away.

Although it sounds strange to worry about one man taking away another man, it is true.

Wang Shu frowned slightly, but at this time Xu Le said directly:

"Since you have a mission tomorrow, why don't you just follow me? I won't be picking any missions that are too difficult, so you can just do it as usual."

Wang Shu glanced at Xu Le, probably guessed what Xu Le was thinking, and nodded:

"Can."

After hesitating for a moment, Gusini asked again:

"Why don't you just hire us?"

"I don't have any money." Xu Le spread his hands.

"I have to ask the boss about this matter. Wait a moment."

"Okay, but don't take too long."

"good."

Gu Sini ran out quickly, but not long after, she came back and put on a pair of pants.

After watching her leave, Xu Le smiled and said to Wang Shu:

"He is so young and energetic, he looks like he is 18-19 years old, Brother Shu is so lucky."

"There are many people like her in Tianrui Lifeng. There's nothing special about her."

When Xu Le heard Wang Shu mention Tianrui Lifeng, he was still a little curious.

"There are so many mercenaries in Tianrui Lifeng. Is it because the situation there is so difficult?"

Wang Shu hesitated for a moment and shook his head slightly:

“If we talk about poverty, Tianrui Lifeng is indeed somewhat poor, but it is not difficult there.

People like Gusini are warriors who fight with dreams in their hearts. They are people with ideas. "

Xu Le was stunned. He did not expect Wang Shu to give such a high evaluation to Tianrui Lifeng.

What kind of city is it that makes people like Wang Shu unable to help but admire it

"A man of ideas, a warrior with dreams..."

"Tianrui Lifeng's philosophy is that man can conquer nature, and perhaps they had been in chaos for many years before.

There was even an emperor and a slightly deformed government organization called the court, but they had changed after the awakening reforms.

Although it still has some militaristic tendencies, the warriors born there all have their own ideas, and it’s a very vibrant place.”

It's rare to see Wang Shu talk so much!

"If I have the chance, I must go to Tianrui Lifeng to have a look."

"We should definitely go check it out. Even though it's only for a few days, I think their path is more correct than the lighthouse."

While the two were chatting, Ge Sini walked in with a woman in her 30s who still had some charm.

This woman's appearance was not particularly beautiful, and the scar on her forehead especially ruined her overall look.

But there's no way, she's too big.

Compared with the big one, other aspects are really just embellishments.

However, Xu Le was also a little confused. Would a body of this size really not affect the battle

"Hello, Mr. Xu Le, right? My name is Wang Jing, but they all call me the widow."

"I'm Xu Le, hello Ms. Wang Jing."

It is not appropriate to call someone a widow, "Ms." is fine. No wonder Rewi Alley likes to be called Ms.

"Nizi told me everything that happened before. Does Mr. Xu Le need to go on a mission? How many people are needed? Are there any requirements for personnel configuration? Warriors or sorcerers?"

"Warlock? There is a warlock in your mercenary group?"

"Yes, I am a warlock myself, a level 2 light warlock."

"Light Warlock!"

Xu Le had heard of this system, but had never seen the specific abilities of the warlocks in this system.

I wonder if they are similar to those priests of the Illuminati

"The mission is not difficult, so there is only one person required for Brother Shu. As for the others, you can send as many as you want, and just gather five people."

"Okay, does Mr. Xu Le have any other mission requirements?"

"The command is mine, nothing else."

The widow nodded.

"I see."

The personnel were assigned very quickly. What surprised Xu Le was that in addition to Wang Shu and Ge Sini, the widow Wang Jing also came along.

"Is Ms. Wang Jing also going on the mission?"

"Yes, I really want to see what kind of person is able to impress Wang Shu."

Is this the only reason

Xu Le felt that it was definitely not an easy task for a woman to control a mercenary group.

Without some real skills, I'm afraid it won't work.

"Well, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

When the group arrived at the Law Enforcer Hall, it was almost 10 o'clock.

"Brother Shu, take a mission that is not difficult. Try to control the time. It would be best if it is about 4 days. I will go find someone."

"good."

Xu Le first went to the law enforcement team to find Xu Ting, asked his cousin to take leave directly, and then went to Office No. 9 to find Ai Li.

We formed a team of 8 people in total.

When Xu Le finally brought Ai Li to the team, Wang Shu's pupils shrank noticeably.

This woman is so strong.

Ai Li also felt Wang Shu's presence, but she didn't care much.

Instead, he looked at Xu Ting who was hiding on the side.

"Law Enforcer Xu Ting, you should be at work today as usual, right? Don't you have to be on duty? You actually have time to participate in Xu Le's mission."

It was obvious that Ai Li knew that Xu Ting was Xu Le's cousin.

As a law enforcement officer, she has the right to punish Xu Ting for leaving her post without permission.

"Didn't Ms. Ai Li also participate? Why are you talking about me?" Xu Ting's voice was very low, but Ai Li's hearing was at an outrageous level.

Xu Le quickly pulled his sister and whispered:

"Stop talking, just follow me obediently."

"She's so bad, why are you looking for her

Hearing Xu Ting's description, Xu Le's face darkened. This silly girl has no idea about other people's hearing... Aren't you ruining my good thing

Do you understand the value of Moon Dog

"Ahem, Ms. Ai Li, Xu Ting followed us because she is my cousin, and I have the responsibility to take care of her and show her the world.

This is a task assigned by my uncle Xu Weiwen. Do you know Xu Weiwen? He is a very capable one. "

When Xu Weiwen was mentioned, Ai Li's expression eased a little. She nodded and said:

"I recognize Mr. Xu's strength. We have fought against each other before."

Xu Le:

Xu Ting: ?

Zhuangniu widened her eyes, looked at Ai Li in disbelief, and couldn't help asking:

"You fought with my dad? Did you win or lose?"

"Of course Mr. Xu won."

Xu Ting finally breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that her father had won.

"Sure enough, my dad is better."

Wang Jing took out the task report that Wang Shu had taken over, handed it to Xu Le, and explained:

"We have accepted a mission involving a mixture of hills and plains. The risk assessment is only 2, so the difficulty should be very easy. Can we set off now, Mr. Xu Le?"

"certainly."

The group arrived at the door, and Xu Le rented a car for the others to sit in.

Ai Li drove his own car, and Xu Le followed him happily. Xu Le, who wanted to brainwash Ai Li, sat on the passenger seat:

"Ms. Alley..."

"Sit in the back."

"Okay, drive slower. They don't have your driving skills. If you drive too fast, they won't be able to catch up."

Xu Le sat obediently in the back, and Ai Li's car started.

As we all know, driving is a great opportunity for conversation.

Xu Le was ready to seize this opportunity to launch a critical hit on Ai Li to shock her completely.

Because Xu Le knew very well that Rewi Alley was a very responsible person.

Being responsible enough for Zion can become a weakness at some point.

Xu Le wants her to understand her own value, and then protect herself without hesitation, even if she has mistakes and flaws.

Because my value > flaws.

"Ms. Allie."

"What's up?"

"If there is a device that can block mental energy, what impact do you think it will have on Zion?"

"Psychic energy neutralizer?"

"No, it's not that kind of thing. The mental energy shielding I'm talking about is a device that can shield your mental energy even if your mental energy exceeds the warning line as long as it's turned on."

Boom!

The car hit the curb.

Ai Li actually stopped the car and turned to look at Xu Le:

"Are you sure?"
