After completing the bizarre game, the world experienced a global resurgence of strange occurrences.

"Mr. Chen, we've arrived. This is the guild's headquarters."

Ruan Ning parked the car and, before Chen Zhuo could make a move, quickly went around to the right side and opened the car door for him.

After getting out of the car, Chen Zhuo noticed that the building was filled with a lot of unrestrained eerie atmosphere, completely unlike the restrained feeling of the branch.

"Mr. Chen, the two guild leaders went to a neighboring city a few days ago to take care of some business. They just returned to the guild today, so you may need to wait a moment."

Would you like me to give you a tour of our Ironthorn Guild during this time?

"No need."

Chen Zhuo tapped the pocket watch at his waist, and Mirror Ghost entered the building with ease, quickly figuring out its layout.

Ruan Ning was not surprised by this; her question was merely out of politeness.

Whether others need it or not is their business, but as the "bridge" between Chen Zhuo and the guild, she has to be considerate in every aspect.

In this way, the guild will not lose face, nor will it displease Chen Zhuo.

Having the ability to both attack and defend is the most advantageous situation for oneself.

With that in mind, Ruan Ning led Chen Zhuo into the building.

The layout of the first floor is very simple. On the left are some training equipment to improve everyone's physical fitness, while on the right is a fighting ring for everyone to spar and improve their skills.

What's strange is that there are many water tanks in the lobby on the first floor.

It was just past noon, and there were only a few people on the first floor. When they noticed a stranger entering, they immediately looked at Chen Zhuo warily.

If Ruan Ning hadn't been there, they probably would have taken action immediately.

The second floor, shaped like the Chinese character "回" (hui), contains meeting rooms and other spaces necessary for the guild's operations.

"Mr. Chen, please wait here for a moment. I have some things to arrange."

Ruan Ning led Chen Zhuo to the first-floor rest area to sit down. Just then, her phone rang. After answering, she frowned slightly, apologized, and hurriedly left.

As soon as Ruan Ning left, the group of people who had been looking at Chen Zhuo began to whisper among themselves.

"I heard Sister Ruan recommended someone to the president, could it be this pretty boy?"

"So skinny, how strong can he be? He's probably just a kept man!"

"Look at the bandage wrapped around his eyes and the stick he's holding, is this guy blind?"

"Why bother guessing here? Why not just try and see?"

Before he could finish speaking, a burly man walked up to Chen Zhuo and reached out to put his hand on his shoulder.

"Hey kid, what's your name?"

Just as the other person's hand was about to fall, Chen Zhuo quickly turned to the side to avoid it, and at the same time sat down in a seat away from the man.

"Huh?" The man was taken aback. "With that reaction speed, is he blind?"

"Hahaha! Is this even possible?! You can't even touch a blind person!"

"Exactly! All that extra flesh on my body has gone to waste!"

……

The man, who was initially surprised, became furious upon hearing the mockery from the person behind him.

He walked up to Chen Zhuo again, his tone tinged with anger.

"Hey kid, I'm talking to you! Are you deaf—ah!"

Before the man could finish speaking, and was about to reach for Chen Zhuo's hand again, he was slapped away.

The man screamed because the seemingly ordinary slap made him feel as if he had been run over by a truck.

The man clutched his injured hand and quickly distanced himself from Chen Zhuo, his eyes filled with unprecedented shock.

Seeing this, everyone present had a question mark on their face.

"What are you doing?"

Ruan Ning, who had left earlier, stepped out from behind the crowd and glanced at the person closest to Chen Zhuo. She immediately understood what was going on.

The man had provoked her first, but he seemed to have learned his lesson, so Ruan Ning didn't say anything more.

She walked up to Chen Zhuo and said, "Mr. Chen, the chairman told me to take you up to the second floor."

"Okay." Upon hearing this, Chen Zhuo stood up and followed Ruan Ning upstairs to the second floor.

The two quickly arrived at the president's office. Just as Ruan Ning was about to knock on the door, a quarrel broke out inside.

"President, he's just a kid whose background and strength are unknown. Isn't it a bit much for you to personally greet him?"

"Making a mountain out of a molehill? Someone who can escape unscathed from a Class B bizarre incident, even bringing many people with them, can they be some nobody?"

"Even so, is it really necessary for you to go in person? If outsiders see this, it will damage your prestige as chairman!"

"I know everything you're talking about. I have my own plans and my own trump cards, so you can rest assured!"

Chen Zhuo and his companion stood still, listening quietly to everything happening inside the room.

The moment the first sound appeared, Chen Zhuo knew who its owner was—it was Qin Feng, whom he had met when they were fighting over the feather.

The other voice was slightly lower, presumably belonging to the guild leader of the Ironthorn Guild.

In addition, Chen Zhuo also noticed that there was a third person in the office.

Moreover, the eerie energy emanating from this person is extremely chaotic, and his mind is probably on the verge of spiraling out of control.

Considering what Ruan Ning had said earlier, this person should be the guild's vice president.

Ruan Ning gave an awkward smile. Seeing that Chen Zhuo didn't mind, she immediately knocked on the office door.

"Enter!"

Ruan Ning pushed open the door and spoke to the man sitting behind the desk, wearing a floral shirt.

"President, the person has arrived."

"Bring it in."

The man waved inside, signaling Ruan Ning to bring her people in.

When Chen Zhuo walked into the office, three pairs of eyes fell on him at the same time.

When Qin Feng saw Chen Zhuo's appearance clearly, he was first stunned, then a look of surprise flashed across his eyes, and finally turned into a raging rage.

Unexpectedly, fate brought him together with Chen Zhuo here.

His teeth ached slightly whenever he thought about what happened yesterday!

The brothers I brought earlier are still lying in bed!

"The person Ruan Ning recommended was actually you!"

"You two know each other?"

Qin Feng's behavior left everyone else in the office completely bewildered.

Qin Feng immediately told the chairman in detail what had happened yesterday.

However, the president showed no anger upon hearing this; instead, his smile grew even brighter.

He hurriedly walked up to Chen Zhuo and said, "Mr. Chen, it is an honor to have you here. Please forgive me for not welcoming you properly."

This is Yan Qing, the guild leader of the Iron Thorns Guild, and this is Zhou Danming, the vice guild leader.

I had heard Ruan Ning mention Mr. Chen before, but I never expected him to be so young.

"Let's skip the formalities and get straight to the business."

Chen Zhuo raised his hand to stop Yan Qing and steered the conversation back on track.

Yan Qing's smile vanished abruptly, and she sat down on the sofa next to Chen Zhuo.

Qin Feng, standing behind him, froze on the spot, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

He crushed everyone while stealing the feathers, single-handedly resolving a Class B bizarre incident.

If these two things were taken out of context, he might be able to accept them, but now these two incredibly difficult tasks were actually done by one person!

Recalling the harsh words he had uttered and the remarks he had just made, Qin Feng regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself.

The vice president next to him, Zhou Danming, looked like he wanted to say something but couldn't. In the end, he sighed helplessly and sat back down.

"Mr. Chen, are you really not planning to join us?" Yan Qing crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa.

When asked, Chen Zhuo gave the same answer.

Seeing this, Yan Qing didn't press the issue: "Cooperation is possible, but our guild isn't nobody. Mr. Chen needs to show some sincerity."

"President, didn't you say—"

"Ruan Ning, don't forget who you are!"

Ruan Ning spoke unexpectedly, but was interrupted sharply by Yan Qing, who then continued the previous topic.

"Three Heart Seeds! Or five mysterious artifacts!"
