Chapter 596: Chapter 177: Everyone
Su Changxing rested one hand on the top of the chair and said: "This can only be considered a portion of important materials; the Pathfinder Pendant is very expensive. Even if we were to throw everything into it, I could only provide six or seven hundred to the first team over there."
Lin Xiuyu exhaled and stood up, saying: "Leader Su, this matter was reported early on, and it takes time to transfer Points... The boss and the leader trust you very much."
Su Changxing shook his head, wearing a strict expression and said: "There’s no rush, I can’t produce that many Pathfinder Pendants either. But there is something that I need you to contact the Security Bureau about."
"What is it?" Lin Xiuyu froze for a moment, then got serious, realizing that what Su Changxing was talking about might not be an ordinary issue.
Su Changxing was silent for a moment, then tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table before slowly speaking:
"Those Wizards want to completely open the portal to the Black Mist World in Donglin City, and once this portal is opened, there will be no barriers between us and the Black Mist World."
"Our world will be entirely eroded by the black mist, and the situation will spiral out of control."
"We need to stop them before this happens!"
Lin Xiuyu furrowed his brow, not in doubt of its truth, but realizing the seriousness of the situation, he asked solemnly:
"So what do we do? We’re not a match for those Wizards; can we negotiate with them? That probably won’t be of much use either."
Su Changxing took a deep breath and said: "It’s simple, eliminate them, at least don’t let them proceed smoothly."
"Eliminate them? Are you serious?"
Lin Xiuyu’s voice grew louder, having seen the Wizards, he naturally thought they were invincible.
Su Changxing nodded affirmatively: "Yes, eliminate them, that’s the only way."
Lin Xiuyu thought for a moment and asked: "What’s our chance of winning?"
Su Changxing pointed to Donglin City on the map and said: "There’s an opportunity here. A self-proclaimed Bounty Hunter will assassinate the Great Wizard then, meaning we won’t have to face him."
"And that Bounty Hunter’s mission time is within a month, which means I estimate the portal will open in a month."
Lin Xiuyu raised an eyebrow: "Bounty Hunter? What is that?"
Su Changxing explained: "That’s a High-level Player, while we belong to the Low-level Players, as for the source of his mission, it’s unclear."
"But I’m certain this is true, and that Bounty Hunter is very powerful, likely able to deal with the Great Wizard in Donglin City."
Lin Xiuyu pondered and said: "You mean, we need to seize this opportunity to launch a war against those Wizards."
Su Changxing nodded and said: "Yes, I think we need to gather all our Power, not just the Security Bureau, but everyone."
"This will be a war of no return; let the boss come back too, if these Wizards aren’t dealt with, even rescuing the coastal area would be pointless."
"Everyone?" Lin Xiuyu stared at Su Changxing in shock.
"Yes, everyone, at least all the Extraordinary and Superpower Users, all the Players, all the Soldiers."
"This seems a bit rushed."
"There’s no time to wait, I hope you understand, and that you can directly contact the Bureau Director or other high-level officials to have them issue orders directly."
Lin Xiuyu fell silent again, then said: "I understand, I’ll contact the director immediately to explain the situation. This isn’t a simple matter, and I can’t guarantee the result."
Thinking about this made his scalp tingle. Once war starts, casualties will be hard to describe, and victory uncertain, like a gamble, but it must be done.
Su Changxing smiled slightly and said: "I believe everyone can discern the advantages and disadvantages."
...
Leaving the confined little room, Su Changxing headed to the warehouse, where hundreds of Soldiers, including Xu Wenfeng and more than ten Extraordinaries, were stationed, ensuring the safety of these Mysterious Items.
These Mysterious Items numbered nearly a thousand, their value difficult to estimate, and any mishap would lead to a devastating loss.
Xu Wenfeng leaned against the wall and said casually: "I’ve heard the boss has arrived; there should be nothing much for us to worry about here."
Qian Runwei still looked around cautiously and said: "The more critical the moment, the less we should relax."
"Yes, I was being negligent." Xu Wenfeng exhaled and said:
"Why does the boss need so many Mysterious Items?"
Qian Runwei thought for a moment and said: "I don’t know, the leader’s actions aren’t for us to fathom, just work diligently."
Xu Wenfeng nodded, feeling it made sense: "True, but I’ve heard the first team distributed a kind of pendant that can turn people into Extraordinary."
"This news has spread privately, and people in our team ask me about it every day."
Qian Runwei glanced sideways at Xu Wenfeng and laughed: "You’re already an Extraordinary, why concern yourself with these?"
Xu Wenfeng said with some helplessness: "It’s not me who’s concerned, but the people in the team are, so I have to concern myself; you should understand."
Qian Runwei gestured and said: "Enough talk, I see the leader seems to be coming over, it might be better to ask him directly."
Su Changxing approached and saw Qian Runwei and Xu Wenfeng, saying: "Thank you for your effort, once I take what I need, you can rest."
Qian Runwei grinned and said: "Effort is part of the job."
His grinning resembled Huang Biao somewhat, exuding a naive quality.
Xu Wenfeng looked at Su Changxing, smiled shyly, and said: "Long time no see, boss... I’ll lead you in, everything is inside, there are plenty, how will you handle them?"
He couldn’t imagine what Su Changxing intended to do with these Mysterious Items, nor how Su Changxing would transport them away, or just leave them here?
Su Changxing waved his hand and said: "No need, just wait outside, I’ll be in and out quickly."
He wanted to hide the existence of the Pocket Galaxy, not wanting Xu Wenfeng to see it.
Xu Wenfeng nodded and said: "Alright, we’ll wait outside."
But the more it went on like this, the more puzzled he felt.
After seeing Su Changxing go in, he whispered to Qian Runwei nearby: "What’s the boss doing inside?"
Qian Runwei couldn’t imagine, but still said: "The boss surely has his reasons, these Mysterious Items must have a major purpose."
"They couldn’t possibly just disappear."
Xu Wenfeng muttered to himself, still carrying a hint of youthful innocence, after all, he was just a child.
