Chapter 295 Codename "Swordsman"
Chapter 295 Codename "Swordsman"
After signing the employment agreement and seeing Fengshen off, Zhu Chongjiu muttered to himself with a mocking expression, "It's good to have a big tree to lean on."
"Elder of the Jade Void Sect, let's see if you dare to touch me again!"
This is also an important reason why Zhu Chongjiu was able to agree to join the Special Affairs Bureau so quickly.
Zhu Chongjiu still had some questions during this time.
Logically speaking, given my attitude at the time, why would such an important organization come in person?
And why did they even act so servilely when asking me to join?
Zhu Chongjiu had also looked at the job postings online.
His friend had applied for the job but failed.
When they got back, his friend was still complaining about how difficult the exam was when they had dinner together.
In the two days that the organization came to pick him up, Zhu Chongjiu had already confirmed this answer.
Because the Huashan Sect and the Wudang Sect approached him one by one, inviting him to join their sects.
Zhu Chongjiu did not hide anything and told them that he had already joined a government department.
However, both groups of people were greatly disappointed upon hearing that Zhu Chongjiu had joined a government department.
He kept saying that it would be better to develop in a sect, that the future achievements would be greater, that there would be more cultivation techniques and resources, and that he wouldn't have to risk his life to do some dangerous things, etc.!
However, none of them threatened or intimidated Zhu Chongjiu, or said anything about terminating his contract with the government departments.
Although he didn't know who had revealed that he was an alien, and even an elemental alien, Zhu Chongjiu learned it from the conversations of the two groups of people.
That is, although the entire population is now being alienated.
However, the direction of alienation is mainly in terms of power.
Just like when someone can lift a thousand-pound cauldron, that person attracts a lot of attention.
If countless people could lift a thousand-pound cauldron, then that person would become just an ordinary person.
This kind of alienation, like that of Zhu Chongjiu, is called elemental alienation by them.
After listening to the words of the two factions, Zhu Chongjiu recalled the conversation she had with Fengshen and the man who had come with her.
The reason why Fengshen can be called the group leader is not only because she has some leadership skills, but also because her alienation has exceeded the scope of ordinary people.
When she swings her limbs, she can create wind blades to attack enemies.
This is also the origin of the code name "Wind God".
Moreover, the wind blades created are extremely powerful.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it could pierce through gold and split rocks.
As the organization customizes a cultivation system for her, Fengshen will only grow stronger day by day.
This also proves the importance of alienated individuals like Zhu Chongjiu.
Early on the third day, the car sent by the organization to pick up Zhu Chongjiu was already parked downstairs.
Seeing the reluctant expressions on his wife's and parents' faces, Zhu Chongjiu gritted his teeth, turned around, and went downstairs.
Because Fengshen had told him before that the organization would prepare all his daily necessities, he didn't need to bring anything, not even a pair of socks or a pair of underwear.
The only thing Zhu Chongjiu carried was his large sword, which he had wrapped in a bed sheet.
As for the scabbard?
I'll wait until I'm in the organization and let them assign me one.
Otherwise, where would an ordinary citizen like myself get a suitable scabbard for a great sword?
After going downstairs, I saw a Jeep parked downstairs.
There was a person in uniform sitting in the driver's seat and a person in the passenger seat.
Zhu Chongjiu got into the car, and the person in the passenger seat checked his documents to ensure they were accurate before stepping on the gas and the jeep sped away.
Sitting in the jeep, Zhu Chongjiu thought to himself, "The powerful monster that kicked the stone at me, the Wind God said he has already caught it."
Then his only remaining enemy was the elder of the Jade Void Sect.
Don't think that you can just let this matter pass by by not mentioning it in the dark or in the light.
That's because a dog that bites doesn't bark... Bullshit, that's because a ruthless person doesn't talk much.
One day, I will avenge this grudge.
As Zhu Chongjiu was enjoying his future days, the jeep suddenly stopped on a deserted dirt road.
After the car stopped, the accompanying personnel said to Zhu Chongjiu, "We've arrived. Our task is to take you here."
You can get off the bus now.
As soon as Zhu Chongjiu got out of the car, he saw the jeep speed away again.
Looking bewildered, he glanced at his watch.
One hour and thirteen minutes have passed since I got on the bus.
At a normal speed, they traveled approximately 100 kilometers.
I had previously heard that the special affairs bureau that governs this area is located in the provincial capital.
It's clearly still almost a two-hour drive to the provincial capital.
Where did this come from?
Just as Zhu Chongjiu looked around, he saw a plume of thick smoke accompanied by the roar of an engine approaching him from afar.
Seeing this, Zhu Chongjiu quickly grasped the hilt of the great sword.
When the thick smoke reached about ten meters away from me, it suddenly stopped.
Before the thick smoke had even cleared, the Wind God was seen emerging from within it.
He then smiled and said to Zhu Chongjiu, "Welcome, Mr. Zhu, to the Special Affairs Bureau, Spring Province Branch, Third Group!"
When the wind god finished his welcoming speech, the thick smoke had already dissipated.
Seeing that no one was inside the car, Zhu Chongjiu asked, "Fengshen, why are you alone? Didn't the other team members come to greet me?"
Seeing that Zhu Chongjiu was a little unhappy, Fengshen quickly explained to him, "It's not that the team members don't respect you as a newcomer."
They are all currently on assignments and not in the group, so none of them have shown up.
The other three team members will return one after another in the evening, and then everyone will throw a welcome banquet for you.
This is to welcome you, my great god.
Get in the car! "
After another hour's drive, Feng Shen led Zhu Chongjiu to their group's office.
After getting off the car, Zhu Chongjiu looked around.
A desolate grassland stretched out before us, and before us stood an incredibly spacious courtyard-style building.
Seeing the incredulous expression on Zhu Chongjiu's face, the Wind God explained to him:
"We are particular about the location of our office."
This place is the center of our "Song City" jurisdiction.
From here, it's the closest place to any destination in the entire Matsushita City.
Oh right, I forgot to tell you.
The task of a team is to handle special matters that occur in a city.
Our group has four members in total, including myself.
Now that you're here, there are five team members.
As Fengshen spoke, he led Zhu Chongjiu into the courtyard.
Zhu Chongjiu was stunned the moment he stepped into the courtyard enclosed by a two-meter-high concrete wall.
Outside, the wind howls and the Yi River is cold; inside, the courtyard is filled with products of modern civilization.
There are small satellite receiving devices and various electronically controlled instruments.
Different kinds of off-road vehicles, and many things that Zhu Chongjiu had never seen before.
The most outrageous thing is that there are three air-to-ground integrated close-in weapon systems that I've only ever seen on TV, located in the three corners of the yard.
"We don't need to worry about these things; they're all controlled by specialists in the background."
Even if a malfunction occurs, a specialist will come to repair it.
After all, this place contains high-tech products such as machinery, electronics, and guns.
Not everyone is an all-around genius who is ignorant and incompetent.
Our job is simply to accept the mission and complete it.
Hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu's anxiety subsided.
If I really want to learn everything in the courtyard, I'd rather fight the elders of the Jade Void Sect to the death.
If I were willing to learn, I would have already graduated from a prestigious university. Why would I work as a migrant worker on a construction site, toiling from dawn till dusk?
The wind god led him into a room:
"Come on in, this is your accommodation."
I'm in the room right next to yours. You can contact me anytime if you need anything.
"You rest for a bit, I'll go get the equipment you need."
After saying that, just as Fengshen turned to leave, Zhu Chongjiu called out to her, "Could you ask the organization to find me a sword sheath, or make one for me?"
Upon hearing this, Fengshen turned around and returned to Zhu Chongjiu's side.
Zhu Chongjiu spread out the bed sheet, revealing his great sword.
A moment later, the Wind God brought a ruler and measured the length and width of the great sword.
During this time, due to the wind god's carelessness, the ruler hit the blade of the great sword, and the ruler, made of stainless steel, broke instantly upon contact.
"You just said this sword is quite sharp and told me to be careful, but I didn't quite believe you."
It seems that appearances can be deceiving, and even swords shouldn't be judged by their looks!
After Fengshen replied in surprise, he sent the data of the great sword to the organization.
Have the organization custom-make a sword sheath for you.
Having confirmed that Zhu Chongjiu was not in any other situation, Fengshen left Zhu Chongjiu's room.
After sending a message to his family to let them know he was safe, Zhu Chongjiu lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
A burst of noise woke Zhu Chongjiu from his deep sleep.
I groggily opened my eyes and glanced at my watch.
Damn, it's almost 5 p.m.
I slept for six or seven hours?
As soon as Zhu Chongjiu got out of bed, he listened intently and overheard a conversation between several people. "Damn it, those bastards almost bit off my hand."
Team leader, you must apply to the organization for a few more sets of my combat uniform later.
This is such a waste of clothes.
"Fourth brother, don't you claim to be indestructible?"
I feel that you won't need the protection of combat uniforms when you're on missions in the future.
Combat uniforms are actually a burden to you.
Just charge forward naked.
"Get lost."
Third brother, even with your keen sense of smell, you still couldn't figure out whether the dung from those animals belonged to the herders' sheep or cattle.
"Alright, alright, third and fourth brothers, stop arguing."
"Second brother, go check if he's awake; the food's getting cold!"
Upon hearing that the Wind God had sent his second brother to see him, Zhu Chongjiu was the first to leave the room and head straight for the source of the sound.
A moment later, no one was sitting around a table.
A sumptuous meal was laid out on the table.
Through self-introductions, Zhu Chongjiu learned everyone's code names.
The boss, or team leader, goes without saying.
During combat, it can control its limbs to unleash wind blades to attack enemies, exhibiting unparalleled agility, and can also perform brief aerial flight for approximately ten seconds.
The second son's ability is to influence people's minds and control their thoughts.
If someone is unlucky enough to fall victim to this, they will essentially become the puppet of the second-in-command.
Not only that, the second brother is also incredibly skilled, wielding dual swords.
The second brother's two knives were only slightly longer than ordinary daggers.
It can be considered a type of short sword.
Therefore, his codename is "Knife Puppet"!
The third brother's alienation is his absolute sensitivity to smell.
To put it bluntly, he is hundreds of times better than a professional police dog.
In calm weather, he can pinpoint scents up to 30 kilometers away.
If it's a special scent, the locking distance can be even greater.
Therefore, the third brother's code name is "Sound of the Wind"!
However, the third brother's combat ability is only average, only slightly stronger than that of a normal mutant.
When the fourth brother's code name came up, it was "King Kong".
His transformation allows him to freely change his body into a rock-like form.
And its strength is immense.
The fourth brother's attacks are usually spearheaded, always charging forward fearlessly.
After everyone had finished their introductions, Feng Shenqi poured himself a full glass of wine, stood up, and said, "This first toast is for our newest members who joined us today."
The wind and myths fell, and everyone drank it all in one gulp.
After putting down his wine glass, the second brother quickly said, "Everyone, eat your food."
This dish is made at one of my favorite restaurants.
This mission happened to pass by that restaurant, so I specially packed it back in an insulated box.
This sweet and sour pork isn't good when it gets cold.
Amidst the laughter and cheers, the fourth brother suddenly said to Zhu Chongjiu, "You're new here, you should give yourself a nickname too."
Organization rules state that we can't address people by their first names, and we can't keep calling you "newcomer," can we?
Hearing what the fourth brother said, the second brother continued, "The newcomer is a fire elemental mutant, so why don't we give him a code name with the word 'fire' in it?"
"I think it's a good idea...!"
Hearing the second son's words, everyone thought it was feasible.
But when Zhu Chongjiu looked at the large sword beside the chair, he remembered what the handsome young man had said to him earlier.
After a moment's thought, he said, "I use a sword, so I'll call myself 'The Swordsman'!"
