mysterious forerunner

Chapter 368 Who is more shameless

“Is this the thing that trapped the entire North American campaign team in a mysterious scene?”

He Jiliang looked at the old North African-style scimitar in front of him and asked in disbelief.

He subconsciously wanted to pick it up and take a look, but he stretched out his hand and retracted it: "This is the thing you were talking about..."

"Aquitus artifacts." Zhang Qingxiang said, "You'd better not touch them. Although they appear to be artifacts, they are genuine weird things with strong infection."

They are alive.

This means that the Aquitus clan can be killed.

Therefore, once this group of monsters are found, they will be "very cooperative" because they cannot run away or resist, and if they do not cooperate, they can only wait to die.

When He Jiliang saw this strange thing, he completely understood why his nephew obeyed Zhang Qingxiang's words. He even suspected that Zhang Qingxiang had calculated from the beginning that the North Americans would cheat.

So when He Xu set out for the first time and implemented the follow-up tactics against Joruus, Zhang Qingxiang went to look for this thing.

Just to trick the North Americans in the end.

He Xu was very interested in this thing: "There is such a weird thing!"

In the previous life, the study of weirdness never stopped.

But even before Zhang Qingxiang was reborn, including the [Twelve-story Tower], none of the mysterious research institutes in major countries around the world dared to say that the strange information they possessed exceeded 10% of all the strange things in the [Secret World].

He Xu was studying this Aquitus artifact when suddenly a light red wave spread from the scimitar.

"what happened?"

Zhang Qingxiang said: "Joruus and the others have cracked this mysterious scene."

Zhang Qingxiang went over, grabbed the scimitar, swung it into the air, and said, "Okay, they are trapped again."

In the North American Regiment’s base, Joruus pounded his chest with both hands and roared to the sky like a gorilla: “This is my true strength!”

“Without that kid from Huaxia, I can still easily kill through these low-level mysterious scenes!”

People from campaign groups from various countries shouted together: "North Americans are back online..."

Especially some people from Daying and Europa, they even cheered.

But before he could finish his sentence, the North American suddenly lost the connection again!
On the online conference platform, the image of Joruus and others flashed on the North American’s window. Joruus raised his arms and roared - and then the window suddenly went dark again.

"Uh--"

"Offline again?"

Everyone looked at each other, wondering what was going on.

Are North Americans cursed?

Will it implicate us? Otherwise... we should stay away from these unlucky guys in the future?
Joruus's arrogant roar had not yet ended, as he continued with a long paragraph of bold words that expressed his true feelings. Then, the sky, which had just regained its brightness, suddenly became dark again, and with a sound like thunder, another mysterious scene descended.

The campaign committee members, the two military advisors, Riddick Bowe and everyone else were all dumbfounded: What was going on?
Being trapped in the mysterious scene for the first time could be considered a coincidence, but being trapped again in the second mysterious scene right after coming out, with the interval being no more than thirty seconds... If it happened naturally, how small would the probability be?

This is what happens when a person is struck by two lightning bolts in succession, right?
Riddick Bowe gritted his teeth: "Someone is cursing us!"

Joruus was still confident and punched his chest with his fist: "Leave it to me!"

……

Zhang Qingxiang told He Xu, "Let the water out."

There are hundreds of mysterious scenes of all sizes in this country.

The number of people saved by He Xu is not increasing much, and the second, third, and fourth people behind him are motivated.

Only if candidates from various countries work together and strive to catch up, will it be possible to crack all these mysterious scenes and rescue the victims inside.

If He Xu continues to lead the pack, even Olga will have no motivation.

Relying on only one person would really tire him to death.

The Aquitus item captured by Zhang Qingxiang is of a lower level. It is the kind that has the ability to release mysterious scenes but has no ability to withdraw them.

The data of candidates from various countries on the list kept rising. When they were about to catch up, He Shi's data began to slowly climb up like a snail.

There is no longer the overwhelming advantage that we had before.

Joruus showed his great power and cracked the mysterious scene again, but was immediately trapped by the third mysterious scene.

In the next few days, everyone in Daying and Europa became numb.

The North American group went online and offline as if it was just a joke.

He Xu was also surprised: "Although this Joruus is only a seventh-level professional, his strength is very good. How could such a powerful professional appear out of nowhere? I have never heard of his name before."

Five days later, all the mysterious scenes in Albia were solved.

Zhang Qingxiang personally managed the "score control" and the candidates were competing very closely in the ranking list. He Xu no longer had an absolute advantage.

In the last two days, candidates searched everywhere for the mysterious scene, and even fought each other for the mysterious scene...

There are too many candidates and they are too strong. Mystery is not enough.

Olga worked very hard and had great strength, and her unreliable colleagues finally became reliable under her whip. At the last moment, they helped her find a medium-sized scene and saved more than 400 people, surpassing He Xu in terms of data!
Originally she had 350 fewer people than He Xu, but now she has surpassed him by 50.

Although it was only 50, it was a reversal, and Olga topped the list again after many days.

The bear country, a bunch of people who only care about food and not fighting, mocked loudly in the video conference:
"Oh hoo, loser!"

"loser!"

"loser!"

He Jiliang was a little panicked: "Director Zhang, what...what should we do now?"

Zhang Qingxiang smiled and said without panic: "We are sure to win."

He Jiliang: "The mysterious scenes of this country have all been cracked..."

"There is still one that has not been cracked." Zhang Qing waved his hand at He Xu: "Old He, go and rescue the North American group!"

He Xu and He Jiliang's eyes lit up: Yes, how could we forget about them!

In fact, as long as Zhang Qingxiang has the items of Aquitus, he will be invincible in this game.

No more mysterious scenes? Then I'll create another one.

The North American group has more than a hundred people, which is enough to overtake Algar.

He Xu immediately rushed to the North American Group’s base. In just one hour, he killed the final boss and rescued the North American Group.

The mysterious scene faded away, and the North American group appeared in the video conference again.

From Riddick Bowe to Joruus, everyone had a dark face.

Especially Joruus, his lips moved several times and he almost cursed.

He Xu asked confidently: "What do you want to do? I am the great benefactor who saved you from the mysterious scene!"

Joruus could no longer hide the stabbing look in his eyes.

Riddick Bowe grabbed him and said to He Xu coldly: "We don't need your rescue. We are capable of fighting our way out of the mysterious scene by ourselves."

He Xu spread his hands and said, "Why didn't you guys come out to fight before?"

"Let's fight our way out..." Joruus blurted out halfway through his words when he suddenly realized something and looked around again - no new mysterious scene descended this time!

Everyone in the North American group, from top to bottom, suddenly understood: it must have been the Chinese who did it!

How dare you come up to us and claim to be our savior?!

We North Americans have always been shameless in the world, but at this moment, we are inferior to China.

Riddick Bowe pinched his nose hard, determined not to let the Chinese get their wish easily: "We will apply for the credit this time, and split it in half with China."

"No problem." He Xu laughed, "This isn't the first time you've done this. Let's do it the same as the previous three times. This time we'll split the number of people we rescue in half."

Even if He Xu only added half of it, it would be enough to surpass Olga.

Then He Xu added, "You North Americans are really good at calculating. Saving yourself is also considered your achievement? Hehehehe!"

Even Riddick Bowe felt a little embarrassed.

Olga directly shouted in the video conference: "We are here to save the people of Albia!"

"Saving a group of North Americans can be considered an achievement?"

"They went from being the rescuers to being the rescued. Instead of helping, they caused more trouble. They should be held accountable for their actions!"

He Xu waved his hand and said, "Ms. Mao Xiong, what you said is inappropriate. Are North Americans not human beings? This is blatant discrimination!"

Two blue veins popped up on Olga's forehead. You Chinese people are cheating, and you won't allow me to say it?
But when it comes to the issue of discrimination, she doesn't dare to speak carelessly.

The veins on Joruus and Riddick Bowe's foreheads bulged even higher: Discrimination? Dare to discriminate against us?

We North Americans are the only ones in this world who discriminate against others, right?

Everyone in the North American team cursed in their hearts. This competition was really too frustrating. Nothing was pleasant when it came to being involved with the Chinese!
Zhang Qingxiang signaled to He Jiliang behind the scenes, and Uncle Wu immediately came out and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, there is no need to argue about these things anymore."

"The first round of election assessment is over. I would like to ask the organizing committee to announce the final results."

The members of the Bear Country raised their fists high: "I protest! We firmly disagree with this so-called result!

We have reason to suspect that China and North America are colluding and cheating together!"

"Ah... this..." The committee members were all speechless, and He Jiliang burst out laughing.

There is nothing wrong with your accusation of collusion between North America and Europe, and anyone would believe it.

You accused North America and China of collusion...why don't you go to the hospital to check your brain first? He Jiliang looked generous: "Since Commissioner Mao Xiong has made the accusation, then let's vote according to the procedure."

"If the vote passes, the result of this competition will be invalidated and we will have a new competition."

“Please raise your hands if you agree with this allegation.”

Only Commissioner Mao Xiong raised his hairy arms high.

For a moment, Riddick Bowe really wanted to disgust the Chinese and raised his hands: Yes, we have colluded with China!
But when he thought about admitting that "we colluded with China", Riddick Bowe felt even more disgusted!
Forget it, give up.

Moreover, this quality control involves myself, so in principle I need to recuse myself and have no voting rights.

He Jiliang spread his hands and said, "Look, you're the only one who agrees."

"So, the world is not that ugly. Don't always think that everyone is against you."

"I..." Commissioner Mao Xiong was so angry that he couldn't speak.

North America and the Russian bear are both disgusted.

He Jiliang felt so happy!

"If there are no other objections, can we announce the results now?"

Several committee members were waiting for Riddick Bowe to express his opinion. He held it in for a long time, but could only endure the strong psychological discomfort and nodded imperceptibly: "Announce it."

He Jiliang smiled, and while hiding behind him, he gave a thumbs up to Zhang Qingxiang behind him.

……

The Chinese campaign team was in high spirits, while other countries were in a state of dejection.

Riddick Bowe, along with two of his trusted subordinates, Benita and Joruus, had a secret meeting with several members of Daying and Europa.

"For the next competition, we must carefully design it and find out what the Chinese are least good at!"

Several committee members were optimistic: "The next project will test leadership ability."

"He Xu is very powerful, but according to the intelligence we have obtained, he has never served as a leader in China, nor has he had experience leading a team alone."

“So his performance in the next event won’t be good.”

Riddick Bowe's expression didn't ease at all. What were you thinking, you idiots?

If we design it according to a normal competition project... He Xu has no experience, but my Joruus also has no experience.

He may not do better than He Xu.

At the critical moment, it was still Commissioner Da Ying who was considerate and said, "The originally designed competition plan is not suitable."

The original plan was: each country would send out twenty professionals, and each candidate would randomly select twenty people from all the professionals to form a team, and each would enter a large mysterious scene.

Everyone carries a recorder with them, and in the end the committee judges which team has the best leader.

When it comes to "judgment", North Americans have the upper hand.

Originally, Riddick Bowe thought he had a great advantage at this level, but after the previous level... the various crooked and evil ideas used by the Chinese made Riddick Bowe lose his previous confidence.

To win this second level, a prerequisite is: you have to get out of the large scene first.

What if He Xu really has the means to control the mysterious scene?

Just like the North American group had been trapped in a series of mysterious scenes before.

If all the candidates cannot lead the team to solve the mysterious scene, and only He Xu succeeds, then He Xu is the winner without considering anything else.

If the other candidates cracked the scene but Joruus didn't, that would also be unacceptable.

So Riddick Bowe needs a more stable and secure plan.

He looked at Commissioner Da Ying with an encouraging look: "What do you think?"

Commissioner Da Ying racked his brains to figure out what his superiors were thinking: "Why not... throw them all into the same large scene?"

"Let them choose a leader for themselves."

"Whoever can serve as the leader and lead everyone to solve the mysterious scene will be the winner of this level!"

The other committee members' faces immediately turned ugly.

You are such a filial son! Your idea really helped Joruus win this level.

But you are forcing us to join you in giving up our own candidates and letting them elect Joruus as the leader.

A large scene, the final BOSS is now an eighth-level monster.

Regardless of whether He Xu and Olga are willing to obey Joruus's command, Joruus can lead everyone to kill the BOSS and crack the scene.

North America is indeed the leader, but our candidates are not really here to run alongside us!

Gou Ride Daying proposed such a plan, but it suddenly pushed everyone into a desperate situation.

Sure enough, when Riddick Bowe heard this plan, his eyes lit up and he immediately decided, "This is a great idea. I think we can do it this way!"

He looked around at everyone, his eyes threatening: "Are you willing to support us?"

None of the committee members dared to speak out, and they remained silent for half a minute. After Riddick Bowe once again threatened, the committee members compromised and said, "We are willing."

……

The next day, member Daying came forward and raised the issue of changing the content of the second assessment at an online meeting.

The Chinese and Russian committee members strongly opposed it.

We are not fools. If you change it like this, you are just giving Joruus a chance.

Commissioner Mao Xiong was full of fighting spirit. He roared and banged on the table on the spot and started arguing with other commissioners.

He Jiliang also had a sullen face and would interject from time to time, always hitting the nail on the head.

After arguing for half an hour, Commissioner Da Ying spread his hands and used his ultimate move: "Since everyone has different opinions, let's vote."

The Mao Xiong member was extremely angry and pointed at his nose and yelled: "You are being a scoundrel!"

"We are following the rules!"

He Jiliang knew that he could not stop the vote at all, and once the vote took place, the new proposal would definitely pass, and He Xu would definitely fail the second hurdle.

He turned back quietly and looked at Zhang Qingxiang inquiringly.

He Jiliang was holding on to a one in ten thousand hope. What if Director Zhang, who was omnipotent in his nephew's mind, really had a way?
But this expectation was shattered in the next moment, as Zhang Qing nodded to him imperceptibly.

Agree to vote? He Jiliang sighed. That's right. Who can reverse this situation?

The bear committee member was still protesting fiercely, and kept roaring and threatening: "We will definitely vote against it!"

"Such a proposal is very unfair!"

"Even if one of your people becomes the principal in the future, our country of Mao Xiong will withdraw from the Academy of Nations!"

But all this is meaningless. The committee member Da Ying announced: "Let's start voting. Please raise your hands if you agree with this proposal..."

Mysterious scenes suddenly appear!

North America, Britain, Paris, Bavaria, Japan and other countries were disconnected from the online conference at the same time!
Commissioner Mao Xiong was stunned, then suddenly looked at the Chinese commissioner He Jiliang.

He Jiliang was also stunned. He was so surprised that he subconsciously wanted to turn around to look at Zhang Qingxiang. Fortunately, he realized that Commissioner Mao Xiong was still online and forced himself to hold back.

But in his heart, He Jiliang shouted excitedly: "What a cool operation! I love it!"

It turns out that Director Zhang can really solve all the problems that others cannot solve, just as his nephew believes!

Zhang Qingxiang stood behind with a calm face and quietly put away Aquitus's belongings.

Do you think that if you act against the rules, I will just obey you?

dream!

Vote? I won't let you vote!
I will simply make it impossible for your rules to be implemented.

"Beep——" a reminder sound rang out, and the voting time was over.

He Jiliang announced: "No one agrees, the motion will not pass!"

"Hahaha!" Commissioner Mao Xiong laughed uncontrollably.

He Jiliang announced again: "The second event competition will begin tomorrow."

"Agree!" Commissioner Mao Xiong said loudly.

Half an hour later, the North American group was the first to go online.

Subsequently, countries such as Da Ying also came online within two or three hours.

But He Jiliang had already logged off. Instead, Commissioner Mao Xiong had been waiting for them: "The voting is over. You are late. Hahaha!"

Member Da Ying immediately said: "There are not enough voters, so the result is invalid! I apply for a re-vote..."

"Okay." Riddick Bowe interrupted Commissioner Da Ying with a sullen face: "Follow the rules."

Commissioner Daying looked puzzled: I am fighting for your interests.

The committee members left the line one by one, and Committee Member Da Ying approached Riddick Bowe and asked, "Why don't you vote again?"

"Don't you understand? The Chinese are behind all this." Riddick Bowe was filled with hatred: "Even if we vote again, the moment we start voting, we will be pulled into a mysterious scene - it will be the same no matter how many times we do it!"

Commissioner Da Ying was speechless.
