In other words, even though Xi knew that the Year Beast could be defeated, she was still filled with fear; simply put, she lacked confidence!

Fang Rui lacked knowledge on how to cultivate the other party's confidence, after all, they had only met for less than a day. However, Fang Rui had a way to reduce the arrogance of the beast.

Fang Rui would definitely refuse to release the Sui Beast's true form, but transferring its consciousness was within acceptable limits...

Well, in Fang Rui's view, there is no problem. It's just a little bit of consciousness. The Sui Beast cannot control the Sui Beast fragment, let alone with Fang Rui's restrictions. It's not easy to break through.

Besides, Fang Rui released his age sign as a warm-up for the finals; simply emerging from the elimination rounds is a bit too easy.

Therefore, Fang Rui plans to add an introductory test for the finalists.

The difficulty of the entry test varies depending on the level of the contestants. The "Year Beast" test is the most difficult, while the other levels of tests...

Fang Rui looked at Nian and Xi, lost in thought.

Among the fragments of the Year Beast, Nian and Xi are not particularly powerful. If we were to find some of the higher-ranking ones...

They would be well-suited to be the goalkeeper for the second difficulty level, especially if they are a martial artist and can control their strength freely.

As for the third difficulty level...

Fang Rui tried to recall who among the people he knew would be suitable to be a goalkeeper. It seemed there wasn't anyone in the Terra world, since he didn't know many people in total.

Unfortunately, the first two difficulty levels involved choosing characters from the Terra world. Considering that characters with the same art style would be more interesting, Fang Rui decided to choose characters from the Terra world again for the third difficulty level.

only……

'Who should I look for?' Fang Rui pulled out all the people in his memory.

First, New Year's Eve and Lunar New Year's Eve must be excluded...

One person's powers are related to "forging," they have a variety of weapons to deal with all kinds of situations, and they are physically strong. Overall, they are quite well-rounded and have no obvious weaknesses.

The other person is completely one-sided in his abilities; his physical fitness is quite poor, but his power is unexpectedly strong.

Unfortunately, Nian has some personality issues. During the review process, he might ask contestants if they are willing to be his opponents, or even deliberately go easy on them...

Not a suitable candidate.

"What are you thinking about?" Noticing that Fang Rui's expression was a little strange, Nian asked without hesitation.

"Remember the match I mentioned? I need a goalkeeper to weed out everyone who isn't good enough..."

"Are you struggling to find the right candidate?" Nian asked.

“That’s right. Do you have any recommendations?” Fang Rui thought for a moment and said, “The strength requirement is about half of yours, excluding your various equipment.”

“Half of my strength…” Nian frowned. No matter what, she was a fragment of a giant beast, possessing power that was difficult for ordinary people to reach. The number of people who could reach half of her strength was extremely small.

"What about Wei Yanwu? His strength should be half of mine."

As the governor of Lungmen, Wei Yanwu's strength is considerable; the only problem is...

"How can I invite the governor of a city-state to be the goalkeeper for an arena? Would he agree?"

Fang Rui went straight to the heart of the matter: why should Wei Yanwu help you?

seem……

"That's possible!" Fang Rui thought of Wei Yanwu's characteristic, which was that he was henpecked.

'If I offered her the Elixir of Youth as bait, would Lady Wenyue agree?'

'There is a chance of success.' Fang Rui pondered. The allure of the Youth-Preserving Pill is something most women cannot ignore, so Lady Wen Yue will definitely be attracted.

Whether Lady Wenyue would persuade Wei Yanwu is another matter entirely.

But if Wei Yanwu knew about this, he would probably agree to participate, since it would please Lady Wenyue.

'Whether it succeeds or not, it's always good to try.'

With this in mind, another purpose was added to finding Wei Yanwu's contact information.

During their conversation, the group arrived at the Royal Guard Bureau, which was bustling with activity today.

Although Chen and his group did not return from the iceberg, news had already reached them that changes had occurred inside the iceberg, and a large group of people were about to flood into the Dragon Gate...

The entire Guard Bureau was groaning; their hectic daily routines were beckoning...

Hearing the voices coming from the Royal Guard, Nian's face was serious, and his tone was full of rejection, "I think they must be very busy. We should visit them another time!"

The sounds coming from the Royal Guard Bureau were like the howling of a pack of wolves, emphasizing the word "unpleasant."

“Hmm…” Xi nodded slightly upon hearing this, rarely agreeing with Nian’s opinion. “I agree.”

"Don't worry, it doesn't matter what happens, after all we are behemoths."

As they spoke, the three entered the Guard Bureau and saw a group of crazed humans.

Simply put, a bunch of people are going crazy...

It seems there must be some news that has caused a group of people to feel genuinely sad.

For example, overtime work, overtime work with no end in sight...

In response, Fang Rui, the instigator, shifted his attention. Seeing someone enter the station, the police officer in charge of receiving them immediately took a few seconds to compose himself and forced a smile as he approached Fang Rui and the others.

"Hello, have you come to the Guard Bureau to report a crime, pay a fine, or...?"

"I'm here to seek help." Before the receptionist could continue explaining, Fang Rui interrupted, "I'd like to ask..."

Speaking of this, Fang Rui suddenly remembered something: if an ordinary person says he wants to find the highest leader of a city-state, would the police officer give him the leader's contact information?

The answer is... no!

Therefore, Fang Rui stopped speaking halfway through his speech, as if he had been paused.

"If I want to see Wei Yanwu, where do I need to make an appointment?" Fang Rui reacted quickly, changing his questioning approach.

"Want to see Lord Wei?" The receptionist's expression turned somewhat subtle upon hearing this; very few people would ask such a question.

Generally speaking, people who want to see Wei Yanwu have the necessary channels, and making an appointment is very simple. People without the necessary channels might still want to meet, but this is the first time she has seen someone come to the Imperial Guard Bureau to inquire about the proper procedures...

"You can schedule a meeting by looking for the reception desk on the first floor of the municipal office building."

Appointments can be made, but whether Wei Yanwu will actually meet with him is unknown.

"Thank you." After expressing his gratitude, Fang Rui left the Guard Bureau with Nian and Xi.

Staying here is pointless and will only put pressure on the officers, preventing them from fully expressing themselves.

“So…” Nian looked at the bustling street and asked a serious question, “What use are we to the Guard Bureau?”

“At least…” Fang Rui paused for a moment, then said, “we have found an effective solution.”

Nian: "…………" Do you want to hear what you're saying?

This method is something that anyone can easily find out.

Xi didn't say anything; she didn't care about the matter and was focused on enjoying the scenery the whole time.

"Speaking of which, is Wei Yanwu in his office right now?"

“I think it’s possible. After all, there’s something wrong with the iceberg. As the governor of Lungmen, it’s unlikely that he would stay in his bedroom.”

"That makes sense, but think about it, are there any receptionists at the reception desk right now?"

"emmm..."

Fang Rui fell silent. It was indeed the middle of the night, and no one would be on duty at the reception desk, since everyone had already gone home.

After thinking for a moment, Fang Rui looked at Nian, "You should have Penguin Logistics' contact number, right? Ask them for help and ask for Wei Yanwu's contact number..."

"To be honest, I don't actually have Penguin Logistics' contact information."

Nian said very seriously that she didn't have any real interaction with Penguin Logistics. It was either a chance encounter during the iceberg exploration or she witnessed Penguin Logistics' chase with other gangs...

There was no formal acquaintance or establishment of contact.

Upon hearing this, Fang Rui glanced at Nian but said nothing. Penguin Logistics' contact information was easy to obtain, after all, Penguin Logistics is a logistics company, and as a company, it naturally has public contact information.

But in 2019, he didn't even bother to do a quick online search.

Hmph! You scumbag...

Fang Rui picked up the communicator and sent a message to Exusiai.

The employees of Penguin Logistics are currently in the iceberg, and replies to messages are not quick; they need to wait a while. In the meantime, the three of them have arrived at the door of the office building.

The only place with a light on in the entire building was on the top floor; that must have been Wei Yanwu's office.

As soon as the three entered the office building, they felt immediately spied on; someone was watching their every move in the darkness.

Nian frowned, wanting to find out who was spying on her from the shadows. She hated being watched...

After all, the fragments of the Year Beast have been monitored since their birth, so they... hate being monitored.

Rather, logically speaking, no one likes being monitored.

"Don't worry about it," Fang Rui instructed. After all, they were going to see Wei Yanwu later, and it wouldn't be good to beat up his subordinates now...

Not to mention, these people are Wei Yanwu's bodyguards. Although Wei Yanwu's strength is among the top combat power of humans in the world and he is quite capable of fighting, he has many ways to deal with a single person.

If the Black Cloak is rendered useless, it could put Wei Yanwu in trouble, such as the enemy launching Originium bombs or poisoning him from a distance.

Although the probability of Wei Yanwu getting into trouble is very low, it is still higher than zero.

Therefore, Fang Rui did not solve the Black Cloak problem.

But we should at least teach them a lesson...

Thinking this, Fang Rui's gaze fell on a certain spot, and the pressure of the giant beast was like a rock falling down, directly making the person dizzy.

"Fine!" Seeing what happened to someone, Nian's anger immediately dissipated.

When she made a move, Hei Suo was beaten up, but he would recover after a few days of rest.

Fang Rui's actions were like using an anti-aircraft gun to kill a mosquito. Being overwhelmed by the pressure of the behemoth left him dizzy and disoriented, causing mental problems that cannot be cured with a few days of rest. The aftereffects will last for a long time...

The specific long-term effects will depend on the situation...

Take the elevator to the top floor.

As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, I was surrounded by three men in black cloaks, exuding murderous intent and hostility.

"Beat them up! Smash them all..." Fang Rui said.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Nian smiled broadly, clearly eager to try.
