Chapter 67 Arrangement
After Zhan Lan finished explaining the plot, a roar suddenly erupted from among the newcomers: "Damn it, you say this is heaven? I absolutely believe this is heaven!"

A burly man from Northeast China stood up, his face flushed, and said, "I was clearly doing business online, and I only clicked on a pop-up ad. How did I suddenly end up here? Damn it, don't think I'm stupid. You guys knocked me out from behind with a tranquilizer dart, then moved me to the house next to the internet cafe to intimidate and extort money from me, right? Don't think that's creative; countless people have already tried it..."

While the burly man was shouting and cursing, Mu Xiang glanced at the newcomer.

There was also a physically fit young man... two ordinary young men... and an artistic young man...

Thank goodness, that woman isn't here...

As he watched another boy sitting and reading a book, thinking about these things, the boy noticed his gaze and gave him a cold look.

【Depend on! 】

Mu Xiang felt a cold sweat break out on his forehead. He had been so focused on finding "that woman" that he had completely forgotten about Zhao Yingkong. He had been thinking about other things the whole time that he had even mistaken Zhao Yingkong's gender at first glance.

The burly man from Northeast China was cursing and about to walk downstairs when Mu Xiang pulled out a gun and shot him at the man's feet.

The sound of the bullets startled the burly man. He opened his mouth to curse, but then saw the dark muzzle of a gun pointed at his vitals: "I'm not an unreasonable person... If you want to leave, I'll send you on your way."

As he spoke, Mu Xiang swerved his gun and fired a shot into the wall behind the big man. Only then did the man realize what was in front of him. Although he was still muttering to himself, he dared not take another step.

Zhan Lan walked towards the newcomers and explained the terrifying cycle to them. Then she nodded to Mu Xiang to indicate that she had finished speaking.

The young man, who had been examining the room's interior, sighed: "I'm starting to believe you. It really is a layout popular in Japan. The tatami mats and paper door patterns were also quite popular in Japan ten years ago..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a chilling aura swept over him.

Mu Xiang frowned. Was this the spying of Ju-on? Although he was indifferent to supernatural films, this chilling atmosphere made him very uncomfortable.

The others seemed to have no reaction, except for Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan, who had also enhanced their bloodlines.

Zhan Lan shuddered. The girl seemed terrified of ghosts and monsters. Although she knew it was useless, she immediately activated the exoskeleton armor and wrapped herself up tightly.

"Don't be afraid, we've all brought enough disposable malice amulets..." Mu Xiang smiled faintly, "Don't worry about this kind of petty fighting. Just don't wear this out..."

Zheng Zha's reaction was even stronger. He stared intently at the attic diagonally above him, and with a flash of red light, a submachine gun loaded with spirit bullets appeared in his hand. If Mu Xiang hadn't held his hand down, Zheng Zha might have already started firing.

"You too..." Mu Xiang was somewhat amused and exasperated. He realized that Zheng Zha was indeed easily stressed. "Let's go outside first. To be honest, with your enhancements, even if you just stand there with Red Flame active, the Curse itself would burn up and still not hurt you..."

So Mu Xiang led the burly man from Northeast China down first, and the rest of them followed one after another.

In the end, it was Chu Xuan and Arno who came out. Mu Xiang knew that he must have arranged something...

Some welcoming gifts for the Beiyanzhou team.

Mu Xiang and Chu Xuan nodded to each other, and then Zheng Zha stood at attention.

Everyone followed Zheng Zha's gaze and saw a pale figure appear at the second-floor window.

Those were a pair of pitch-black eyes, filled with malice and resentment. Just as Zheng Zha was about to raise his hand, Mu Xiang stopped him: "Are you going to attract the police? Let's go!"

The group left down the street, and after walking several hundred meters, Mu Xiang could still see that pale figure when he looked back. He waved impatiently at it, "Don't bother seeing me off!"

Arriving at a park in the middle of the street, the group found the first suitable place to hold a meeting. Mu Xiang first had the senior members introduce themselves, and then waited for the newcomers to speak.

Upon seeing the Curse, the burly man was so terrified that he trembled all the way, relying entirely on the even stronger Overlord to carry him. By this time, his speech was slurred, and after a long pause, he could only manage to utter "Ma Dong..."

Mu Xiang was too lazy to play the "Ma Dong what" question-and-answer game with him, so he just told him to sit aside and relax.

The physically imposing young man was Qi Tengyi, who introduced his appraisal skills to everyone. Seeing this remarkably calm and rational newcomer, the veterans also looked at him with higher regard, and Zheng Zha and the others smiled at him amicably.

The other two unremarkable young men were Lu Renjia, whom Mu Xiang knew, and the other was neither soldier B nor civilian D, but a college student who called himself Long Taobing.

Mu Xiang held back his laughter when he heard the name, and then looked at the handsome young man... well, he should be called a gender-neutral beauty.

The girl said calmly, "Zhao Yingkong, an assassin..." and then continued reading her book.

Upon hearing the word "assassin," the veterans all looked at Zero, fearing that the two assassins might know each other or have some kind of conflict. Zero, however, glanced at Zhao Yingkong and then said to Mu Xiang and Chu Xuan, "You guys arrange the mission... Whether it's an assassin or not, the team needs people of any profession."

Mu Xiang glanced at Zhao Yingkong's book cover and reading progress, and said casually, "Don't get distracted... Guan Bolan drowned himself in the sea in the end."

Such words were of course a great offense to someone who hadn't finished reading the book, and a murderous intent immediately locked onto Mu Xiang.

Mu Xiang shrugged, then unleashed a burst of power to suppress him: "I knew you were no ordinary person... Very well, you should be of use now."

Chu Xuan adjusted his glasses: "You should have spare gold... At midnight, go get the gold to deal with the financial issues and purchase necessary supplies."

Zheng Zha was taken aback: "Wouldn't it be dangerous for him to go alone?"

“In these kinds of supernatural films, the number of people involved has nothing to do with safety,” Mu Xiang said, adjusting his glasses. “Of course, if you’re worried, you can definitely go with them.”

Zero refused Zheng Zha's offer. When the assassin asked Chu Xuan if he needed a map, Chu Xuan nodded and took out a metal box.

"What is this?" Zheng Zha asked curiously.

“The Bee-Eye Mapping Drone,” Chu Xuan said casually, “scans the surrounding terrain using a miniature drone and then creates a map. While you can buy maps of this place, having a real-time map is certainly better.”

Mu Xiang peeled a lemon candy, then watched the twenty-four miniature drones take off and disappear into the distance: "They bought them with my money."

Chu Xuan ignored him, staring silently at the screen of the console in his hand, lost in thought.

Mu Xiang also fell silent, stuffing lemon candies into his mouth one after another, occasionally snapping them in half, silently calculating.

Sorry I was late today because I was busy.
