Chapter 423: Chapter 237: Endless Power, Yunjing’s Envoy_3
Lin Xun put down his phone and walked into the Bureau of Culture, his mind full of confusion.
What’s so secretive that it had to wait till the weekend to be discussed?
As soon as he reached the second floor of the ’Bureau of Culture Special Office’, he heard the scratching voice of Ye Xiaoqi:
"This round doesn’t count! You lack martial ethics, attacking me unexpectedly! Let’s fight again!"
He saw a group of female colleagues circled around Ye Xiaoqi, who was dressed in a tank top and hot pants.
The other person was someone Lin Xun has never met before...a handsome young boy wearing glasses, who looked young enough to still be in junior high school.
The boy adjusted his glasses and sneered, "A loss is a loss. We agreed to a breezy two-thousand spirit energy game."
"If you can’t pay up, that’s fine. You’ll just have to call me team leader from now on."
Ye Xiaoqi widened her eyes: "Call you, a little brat, my team leader? Dream on!"
"Then you better pay up the spirit energy to avoid damaging the harmony among colleagues."
Lin Xun couldn’t help but feel intrigued.
Judging by their conversation, the boy seemed to be a new Apostle recruited into the Intelligence Team...though he obviously wasn’t an adult yet, so isn’t he considered child labor?
Is our Intelligence Team really so short-staffed that we’ve to recruit junior high school children...?
Ye Xiaoqi, who was furious, noticed Lin Xun standing outside the encirclement, her eyes lit up:
"Lin Xun, what brings you here?...wait! You’re here just in time!"
"Come, let me introduce you to our new colleague."
"This brat here is an envoy specially sent from Yunjing Headquarters, an Apostle of the Lightning Tribulation team."
"According to Team Leader Li, not only is he a prodigy and academic chieftain, but he also possesses considerable strength, far beyond that of common Apostles."
"Of course, I don’t believe someone of his age can be all that capable. To confirm that he’s not a fraud, I had to put him to the test..."
The situation wasn’t complicated.
Every newly established Lightning Tribulation team in various cities would have an Apostle specifically dispatched from Yunjing Headquarters to enhance their combat power.
This boy named Lv Yiming is an Apostle dispatched from Yunjing, said to have been personally selected by Team Leader Li among thousands of applicants.
Given Ye Xiaoqi’s personality, it’s hardly surprising that she had a wager duel with this overly young special envoy.
"Lin Xun, you’re the ace of our Intelligence Team. You can’t let this dropped-in special envoy strut around here."
All the female colleagues’ gazes turned to Lin Xun.
Lin Xun, as the ’newbie’, had not been with the Intelligence Team for long, but his illustrious achievements were unmatched by his team members.
His first mission upon debuting was to kill a middle-ranking figure in ’New World’, and his second mission led him wiping out a high-ranking New World official.
His third mission was undoubtedly the most miraculous.
Amidst an outbreak of ’Doomsday Contamination’ within the armed forces, a group of Apostles were holding on for dear life when Team Leader Li arrived at the battlefield with this ace up her sleeve.
Lin Xun single-handedly turned the tide, averting catastrophes and saving countless lives...
In short, his exploits were legendary. It was even rumoured that...
The only reason this ace has not been transferred to the Heavenly Punishment team in Hang City is because Team Leader Li used her connections to suppress the transfer orders time and again...
Lin Xun was enjoying the spectacle quietly when he suddenly found himself caught in the crossfire.
"Comrade Xiaoxi, I beg to differ. If a special envoy dispatched from Yunjing Headquarters has joined the Lightning Tribulation team, then he is one of us. The stronger, the better."
"Instead, it’s you, losing two thousand units of spirit energy and refusing to accept the defeat...sigh, if you really can’t afford to pay, I suppose I’ll have to foot the bill for you, just make sure to treat me to a meal."
Ye Xiaoqi saw that her attempt to divert trouble had failed and, in fact, she ended up being ridiculed by Lin Xun. She was so irritated that her teeth itched.
"Who said I can’t afford it?! It’s just two thousand units of spirit energy, right?"
She quickly operated her phone and made a transaction.
The smiling face of the special envoy, Lv Yiming implied the transaction was successful.
Unexpectedly, Lv Yiming suddenly looked at him, "Thank you for your gallant assistance...I heard you’re the strongest in this Intelligence Team?"
"I was originally going to join the Heavenly Punishment team in Hang City, but Team Leader Li said that if I can defeat the strongest person in the Wencheng Lightning Tribulation team, she would hand over the team’s control to me."
"Nice to meet you again, my name is Lv Yiming, I’m 16 years old, graduated from the Law School at Yunjing University, and currently serving in the special task force back at Yunjing Apostle’s Council Headquarters."
The bespectacled boy Lv Yiming extended a hand, "After you, I still have to go to the military team. I heard there are still two people, one named Wang Zong and the other named Lu Caiyi..."
"So, let’s make it quick!"
