Godslayer: I, the agent of the God of Drama, am here to begin the show.

After being punched by Lin Ze, Cao Yuan immediately became much quieter.

The sudden appearance of this person put the members of Squad 007 on high alert once again.

In that state, Cao Yuan was someone that even the combined forces of several of them could barely contend with.

But he was able to solve it all by himself!

Moreover, Cao Yuan had no chance to fight back against him!

Just how powerful is this person?

Does he have any bad intentions?

Were they specifically here to target Cao Yuan, or to cause trouble for their team?

Or perhaps... this is the reinforcements they've been given from above?

The team members were thinking to themselves.

The captain stepped forward warily and asked, "Was that one of our teammates?"

"You hit one of our teammates."

Lin Ze said dismissively, "I know, so what?"

"Would you like to try it too?"

The captain hesitated for a moment before saying, "N-nothing, if you hit him, you can't hit me, okay?"

Based on the conversation and Lin Ze's attitude, he could tell that Lin Ze at least didn't have any bad intentions.

Whether he is a friend or not is debatable, but one thing is certain: he is definitely not an enemy.

This made them feel much more at ease.

Otherwise, they really wouldn't be able to handle facing such an enemy.

Moreover, Cao Yuan is still unaware of the situation.

At this moment, Cao Yuan slowly got up from the shattered ruins, staring blankly at his surroundings.

He immediately understood.

It turned out that he had already drawn his sword, and judging from the looks of it, he must have attacked his own people again.

Fortunately, they managed to stop themselves and prevent a tragedy from happening.

Cao Yuan touched his cheek where Lin Ze had slapped him, thinking to himself, "Why does this feeling feel so familiar?"

"It feels like I've experienced this somewhere before."

"Never mind, let's see what their situation is now."

Cao Yuan got up, dusted himself off, and walked toward the crowd.

"I've already told you all that I can't control this power right now, and it will get out of control."

"Now you believe me, right?"

"But you guys are pretty amazing, you actually managed to stop me."

Cao Yuan said expressionlessly.

He was always like this when he was in the squad, expressionless.

There was no visible emotional fluctuation.

However, at that moment, Cao Yuan suddenly saw a familiar figure standing there quietly watching him!

Cao Yuan's pupils dilated instantly, then he shouted excitedly, "Holy crap! Brother Ze!"

Lin Ze: .....Can you please not put my name after exclamatory words in the future?

Front?

The previous one works too!

After saying that, he ran towards Lin Ze like a puppy seeing its owner and gave him a big bear hug.

"Brother Ze! What brings you here?"

"I thought you were dead!"

Lin Ze: "?"

Lin Ze grabbed Cao Yuan by the collar. "Not a buddy?"

"I heard that while I was away, you kept telling people I was dead?"

"Can't you say something nicer than that?"

Cao Yuan scratched his head awkwardly, "Well... that's just how I feel."

"I don't know why, it just happened out of nowhere."

Lin Ze said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"Don't overthink things anymore."

Lin Ze thought to himself, "You guessed pretty accurately. How did you know I died once? Let me think... Could it be that the Ghost King's mark disappeared after I died? That should be it. It seems to be the only possibility that fits this description. It just so happens that Cao Yuan also lost control, which also explains this situation."

"I'll put a permanent mark on him later, so even if something happens to me, Cao Yuan will be fine. Pah, what discouraging talk! How could anything possibly happen to me!"

Cao Yuan nodded. "Okay, Brother Ze, I understand."

Afterwards, Cao Yuan returned to his previous expressionless demeanor.

This scene left the members of Squad 007 somewhat bewildered.

"Captain... So Cao Yuan isn't expressionless after all. I always thought he was."

"I was thinking of telling him jokes, but then I thought it might not be appropriate to tell jokes to someone with a poker face. But now it seems this guy isn't poker-faced at all!"

"He simply doesn't want to talk to us!"

"Hmm...that seems to be the case."

"Seriously, this is the first time I've ever seen Cao Yuan say so much in all the time he's been here. What he said just now was almost as much as all the other people here have said in total!"

"So it turns out we were the backup option all along."

"But who is this Brother Ze? Where did Cao Yuan meet him?"

"Brother Ze... I don't recall him. Does our Great Xia have such a person? A powerhouse of this level should already be famous throughout Great Xia. Even if not, we should at least have heard of him."

"But why don't we know anything about this Brother Ze?"

At this moment, someone spoke up, "Brother Ze... I remember there was a guy named Lin Ze in the same training camp as Cao Yuan."

"Could he be this Brother Ze?"

The others looked at him with surprise and asked, "Are you alright?"

"Lin Ze's performance in the training camp was mediocre at all, with no highlights whatsoever."

"Cao Yuan is second only to Lin Qiye in the training camp. Can Lin Ze, whom you're talking about, really have that kind of strength?"

"Indeed, what you said makes a lot of sense. The person in front of us definitely can't be Lin Ze."

"So who exactly is this Brother Ze? I've never heard of him before."

The members of Team 007 discussed the matter and immediately ruled out the correct answer.

Actually, you can't blame them for this, because ever since the higher-ups discovered Lin Ze's strength, they've kept him hidden away.

The only information available about Lin Ze now is from the training camp.

Even so, the higher-ups were still worried, so they changed all of Lin Ze's grades.

At that time, Lin Ze was so strong that he was the undisputed number one, and he was far ahead of the leader.

So they simply didn't let him participate in the scoring.

It may seem that Lin Ze has achieved nothing, but those involved know that Lin Ze's strength is undoubtedly number one!

However, only those who know Lin Ze know his true strength; no one else pays attention to him.

Because an ordinary person doesn't really attract much attention.

"Brother, what brings you to Huaihai?"

"You're a Night's Watchman too, aren't you?"

The captain went straight to the point and asked.

Judging from Lin Ze's current performance, he will most likely become a night watchman.

Even if he isn't, he wouldn't be their enemy, given his relationship with Cao Yuan.

Therefore, the person in front of them is probably not their enemy.

Lin Ze didn't mince words, saying directly, "Yes, I'm also a night watchman, you don't need to be afraid."

Upon hearing this, the members of Team 007 immediately felt insulted.

They are Team 007 of Huaihai City, a force that is in no way inferior to special teams.

They are always the ones who are frightened when they hear about their reputation.

When have they ever been frightened?

But upon closer reflection, what he said wasn't wrong.

If the person in front of them is truly an enemy, then they are indeed under considerable pressure.

"If we're all on the Night's Watch, then things will be easier."

What brings you here?

"Bring people."

"Take someone? Who are you taking away?"

Lin Ze pointed at Cao Yuan, "I'm taking him away."

Upon hearing that Cao Yuan was to be taken away, the captain of Squad 007 was in a dilemma.

It's not that we're having trouble taking Cao Yuan with us.

Lin Ze is having trouble deciding which one to take with him today.

Because the first vow he made when he became captain was to protect his teammates.

This is not just an oath, but a rule for the Night's Watch: one cannot abandon one's teammates without permission.

Although this has nothing to do with abandonment, that's roughly the idea.

Moreover, the relocation of teammates requires orders from above; they cannot act without such orders.

Your boss asked you to protect this city, and you suddenly say you're quitting?

What kind of situation is this?

So no matter what, he won't let Lin Ze take anyone away today.

"Young man, I must apologize for this."

"You really can't take this person with you today."

Cao Yuan frowned and immediately stepped forward, saying, "Captain, why can't I leave?"

"This is my friend, he's not a bad person."

The captain said, "This isn't about being friends or not."

"If you leave, who will take care of the tasks assigned to you?"

"It's not that I'm deliberately making things difficult for you, it's just the way things are, and I'm just following the rules."

"Cao Yuan, you should understand this very well. As a Night Watchman, you must abide by the rules."

"This is especially true for our stronger Night Watch squads."

"I think you understand what I'm saying."

Cao Yuan wanted to say something more, but before he could speak, Lin Ze interrupted him.

Lin Ze stepped forward and said calmly, "Captain, I understand you."

"But you also need to understand my desire to see my brothers."

"I might do two things next. One is to forcibly take Cao Yuan away."

"You can't stop me, you should know that perfectly well."

"However, I wouldn't do that unless absolutely necessary. After all, we're all colleagues, and there's no need to make a scene like this, right?"

Lin Ze looked at the captain of Squad 007 in a low voice and said.

Threat!

This is a blatant threat!

Are you implying that if we don't let them pass, Cao Yuan will also be taken away by you?

Lin Ze's words may have had a negative impact, but the effect was surprisingly good.

That's just the way it is.

If you are not as strong as others, then that is your greatest sin.

"What about the second one?"

"The captain asked."

Lin Ze said slowly, "The second one is relatively simple."

"I suppose you don't want me to forcibly take Cao Yuan away, so you should come up with a reasonable way to do so."

"I'm making this clear right now: I'm definitely taking Cao Yuan away today!"

In this way, Lin Ze passed the problem on to the 007 Night Watch team.

I have already told you my principles.

Since you say we can't take Cao Yuan away, then I'll ask you to come up with a reasonable way to take him away.

After a moment of contemplation, the captain replied, "There is a way."

"You only need to contact a high-ranking official and get their approval to take Cao Yuan away."

"Because of this, even if Cao Yuan is on temporary assignment, he will not violate any discipline."

Lin Ze nodded. "It's that simple. This is easy."

The team leader reminded him, "Actually, I feel this is the more difficult one."

"Because those high-ranking officials are usually elusive and you can't find them at all."

"Let alone getting them to approve it."

Lin Ze didn't say anything, but silently made a phone call and handed it to him.

"The telephone on the human ceiling."

The captain was slightly taken aback. "Where would I get a phone from the ceiling of humanity? I don't have one!"

Lin Ze: "I told you to answer!"

"?!"

"Let me answer?!"

Before the captain could react, Master Chen's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I am Master Chen."

"Do as he says. From now until he leaves, your entire 007 squad will be on call!"

After saying that, Mr. Chen hung up the phone.

"Human...the ceiling of human potential?!"

"It really is the pinnacle of human potential!"

"This is the first time I've ever made contact with the human ceiling alone!"

"Release them! Release them immediately!"

After receiving Mr. Chen's call, the other party stopped trying to stop him and let Lin Ze take Cao Yuan away.

This is because the current conditions are limited.

Otherwise, he would hold a farewell ceremony for Lin Ze and Cao Yuan.

Lin Ze hadn't expected that a single phone call could have such an effect.

Because he had already reached the pinnacle of human potential during his novice period, and had even become Master Chen's apprentice.

In addition, he now possesses strength comparable to the pinnacle of human capabilities.

Therefore, he didn't find the human ceiling to be anything special.

But this is only true for him; it's not the same for others.

Every Night's Watchman deeply admires those who are powerful.

These human heights naturally became their idols.

In addition, in this era where mystery reigns supreme, only those with strength can survive.

This has led to an even greater admiration for these powerful individuals.

Therefore, the prestige of the human ceiling is still very useful, and this is not just because of their strength.

"Captain, are we just going to let them go like this?"

"So who was the person you just spoke to on the phone? How come they let you go after just one phone call?"

"Is he some important person?"

"Master Chen, is it big enough?"

"Master Chen?!"

"This kid actually dialed Master Chen's number directly! Who exactly is he?!"

"Is it due to personal ability or background?"

"This person is no longer someone we can inquire about; we just need to focus on our own tasks!"

"Return to the team!"
