Chapter 22: Cursed Backlash
After walking out of the room, Lin Bei opened the holographic quantum watch, opened the contact interface, and entered the contact information given by Leng Wushuang. Soon, Leng Wushuang's personal user appeared on the interface.
Choose to apply, and after a while, Leng Wushuang approved the application. However, before Lin Bei contacted Leng Wushuang, he only saw a call from Leng Wushuang.
Looking at the call selection interface, Lin Bei swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He knew that Leng Wushuang must have known about the academy's affairs because he called in such a hurry.
He clicked to connect tremblingly, and before Lin Bei finished the virtual call, he heard Leng Wushuang's angry voice on the other end of the phone. The sound was so loud that even the practitioners near Lin Bei looked over.
When Lin Bei saw this, he immediately closed the call link. However, a second after closing, Leng Wushuang called again. He had no choice but to find a place with few people.
Sneaked into the men's room of the mercenary organization and started to answer the phone:
"Lin Bei, you're so brave, aren't you? You dare to hang up on me! You don't want to live anymore?!"
As expected by Lin Bei, the moment he answered the phone, Leng Wushuang's angry voice broke out again, this time even stronger than the last time. Lin Bei had no doubt that Leng Wushuang let go of his voice and started scolding directly.
.
"Well, young lady, I was in a public place just now, and your voice was so loud that it would disturb others."
"Haha, don't mention this, you are so brave. You secretly posted photos of my maid uniform on the Internet, and let the entire college know that I wore a maid uniform and had to take care of you, the eldest young master.
Well done.”
"Miss, it was those grandsons who provoked me first. If they hadn't seen me walking with you and stared at me fiercely, I wouldn't have provoked them like this."
"Hey, after all this, is it still my fault?"
"You can say..."
Lin Bei hummed.
"What did you say?"
"No, it's all my fault."
"Forget it, I'll settle the score with you when I get back. Where are you now?"
"What's going on in the mercenary organization building?"
"I'll have someone transfer that task to you. You go and receive it."
After that, hang up the phone immediately.
"This young lady is really hard to take care of...Forget it, let's just take the mission."
After a while, the contact interface suddenly lit up with application information. When he clicked on it, a rather cute avatar of a loli who looked no more than fifteen years old appeared in front of Lin Bei.
"Hu Yanran? Is this the person the eldest lady was talking about?"
The application was received directly and a message was sent:
Hu Yanran: Meow, meow, meow, are you there?
Lin Bei:......
Nonsense, you just received the message, can you please stop?
Hu Yanran: I woke up right now. The team leader said he would recommend this task to you. Are you sure you can complete it?
With that said, a link was sent below. Lin Bei clicked on it and saw the content: Bounty: Dark Forest: Extreme Shadow Dark Cat
Strength: Early stage of golden elixir
Recommended: Mid-stage Golden Elixir
Reward: Ice Soul Orb
Reward location:......
Okay, as expected, the introduction was enough. Lin Bei clicked to accept the task, and the task quickly turned into a small sword symbol and flew into the task template in the mercenary app.
Hu Yanran: Huh? You can actually accept it!
Lin Bei: ...Without the strength of Jin Danqi, the eldest lady would ask you to recommend the task to me?
Mercenaries whose information strength is not up to standard are not allowed to take on tasks whose strength is not up to standard. If they insist on doing it, they will have to give up unless they form a team with people who are up to standard.
Hu Yanran: That’s right. Look at my brain, so I’ll leave it to you!
After saying that, the avatar immediately dimmed. It was obvious that Hu Yanran was offline.
"Hu Yanran's IQ is worrying. The eldest lady actually has such a member..."
Didi didi...
Suddenly, Leng Wushuang's profile picture lit up, and Lin Bei clicked to take a look:
Leng Wushuang: Lin Bei, have you accepted the mission?
Lin Bei: Don’t worry when I work. It’s just a kitten. It depends on how you take care of it.
Leng Wushuang: Don't force it. If you can't do it, come back and think of a way. That's it, hang up.
Lin Bei:......
"Why are girls so anxious nowadays? Why don't we have a chat?"
Lin Bei sighed and walked out of the men's room. Suddenly, a man in black robe with only two eyes exposed bumped into Lin Bei.
However, the man in black robe collided with Lin Bei, and the result was obviously that the man in black robe was knocked to the ground.
"Are you okay?"
Lin Bei originally planned to pull the man in black robe who was sitting on the ground, but the man in black robe just glanced at Lin Bei, said nothing, and walked directly towards the men's toilet.
When Lin Bei saw this, he took back his hand and shrugged, forget it was not needed.
After Lin Bei left, the man in black robe came out and stared at Lin Bei with his eyes. Suddenly, his eyes were wrapped in red bloodshot eyes, and the whole person looked very evil.
However, before any other action was taken, the man in black robe suddenly fell to the ground, twitching all over, and the blood in his mouth soon dyed the entire black robe red.
The people from the mercenary organization also rushed to the scene immediately and dispersed the onlookers. At this time, a forensic doctor arrived.
Forensic doctors of this era are proficient in various anatomy and autopsy techniques. Even if they die unexpectedly, they can still understand how they died.
"This man has no breath and his soul is broken."
A member of the mercenary organization who had been guarding the spot said to the forensic doctor.
After hearing this, the forensic doctor began to use the grand examination technique to examine the body of the man in black robes. Soon, the forensic doctor stood up, looked at the member of the mercenary organization and said, "This man died from the backlash of the curse."
"Curse backfires?"
"That's right, I wanted to put a vicious curse on others, but in the end, because of my lack of strength, the curse backfired, and this person..."
As he spoke, he lifted up the black robe of the man in black robe, and a blood-colored token with blood words engraved on it appeared in front of everyone.
"Blood Knife Gate!"
When everyone saw this, they took a breath.
The Blood Knife Sect is a well-known saboteur on the planet Kama. They commit burning, killing, looting, and other evil deeds. At the same time, the people of the Blood Knife Sect are proficient in the art of cursing, making them extremely difficult to guard against.
"This is going to be troublesome. If someone from the Blood Knife Sect dies here, trouble will definitely happen."
The member of the mercenary organization said helplessly that this matter was beyond his ability to solve, so he opened the holographic quantum watch and contacted the president.
"President, something happened."
"explain."
A lazy sister's voice suddenly came.
"Someone from the Blood Knife Sect died in the mercenary organization."
"Don't worry about it. If the people from the Blood Knife Sect dare to provoke the mercenary organization, our mercenary organization will not mind letting them try to taste the wrath of the empire."
"Uh, okay."
"Please take care of the scene. I will send someone to guard it when the time comes."
"Yes, President."
After the call ended, the member went directly to the scene and started handling the matter.
In the president's room of the mercenary organization building, a young woman was seen, holding a pipe in her right hand and blowing white smoke from her mouth. The white smoke formed a mist and dissipated in the air.
This woman is the president of the Karma Star Mercenary Organization: Zhang Hanyun, who is in the late stage of Yuanshen and is 78 years old.
