"Well, I guess so..."

"Hush, another 'comrade' is coming!"

"Don't talk nonsense."

"..."

"Hi, guys." A young guard came over.

"Well, brother, you look like a stranger. I haven't seen you before. So you just got off work at that weird place at the gate, right?"

"Ah...yes, yes."

"Come here and take a rest together."

"Okay okay."

After the young guard mixed in with the others, an older guard next to him looked at the busy street and said skillfully:

"Hey, how long can this place remain peaceful like this?"

Someone nearby immediately responded according to the script: "Who knows? No need to guess, we know from the situation..."

In this regard, the familiar scene is still being played out.

……

The night gradually deepened, and the number of pedestrians on the street gradually decreased. In this city, there were several dilapidated areas. In a shabby building in one of the areas, a short-haired girl with her eyes covered by a black cloth stood in the window where the moonlight could not reach, holding a blue-white bead that exuded a cold breath in her hand.

The girl was having an extremely secret conversation with someone through this bead.

"Sister Lian Na, is it okay for Luo Yuan to hide like this?"

"Well, just don't let anyone know." The voice that came out from the blue and white cold bead was actually the voice of the Ice Saint Bai Lianna.

"If Luoyuan hides like this, will the goddess really come to find Luoyuan?"

"Well, believe me, I have lied to her confidant and told him that someone saw the Dark King here. Tell that person that you are very scared now. That person will definitely tell her that she knows that you are very scared of the Dark King, so she will definitely come to help you vent your emotions."

"Well...will it be discovered that Sister Lian Na and Luo Yuan are deceiving people together? After the goddess arrived, she found out that no one had ever seen the Dark King, and Luo Yuan had deliberately hidden himself. Luo Yuan was afraid that the goddess would be angry with him..."

"Don't worry, it's my words, there's no way she wouldn't believe it. Besides, I specifically had someone spread the news that you're missing. The criminals hiding in the city will definitely be ready to make a move. I've also arranged for a lot of people to go to your city. Even if she finds out it's fake, we'll have an excuse to say it was an accidental mistake in order to lure the criminals out and fall into our trap."

"Oh, that... Sister Lian Na suddenly said so much, Luo Yuan felt it was a bit strange, usually she only said a few words."

“……………………That’s just normal times. Also, I’ll be there too. Remember not to be discovered by anyone before you meet me!”

"Yes, Luoyuan knows."

After the conversation, the girl covered with black cloth leaned gently against the wall, looking up with her blind eyes, thinking of the goddess in her heart, and waiting with anticipation.

"My Lady Goddess..."

88. Let’s not expose ourselves!

In the morning, just after the sun rose, the gate of the Hero Association building in Shiguang City was already crowded with people coming and going. Among them, there were big shots appearing from time to time, including some with A-level strength, and even S-level strength.

And in the streets and alleys near the Hero Association building, there are two invisible shadows watching all this.

"Something is wrong. Why has the Hero Association already deployed manpower here before Wymanno Borson came out wearing the King's Clothes to impersonate the Dark King? Could it be that our actions were discovered in advance?"

"It shouldn't be. Wymanno Bosen has been sending people to look for Canbai and accidentally heard that Canbai's whereabouts were unknown. It seems that the Hero Association sent people here because of Canbai's disappearance."

"What? Canbai is missing? Is she hiding because the Goddess of Light is missing and she's afraid that the Dark King will look for her?"

"It's possible. It is said that Canbai is extremely afraid of the Dark King. Before the Goddess of Light appeared, she had been hiding in the dark to avoid the Dark King."

"Heh, I didn't expect that before our trump card, the Dark King, showed up, the Death God Canbai had already fled. In this way, our original purpose of using the fake Dark King's identity to scare her away has been achieved ahead of time. Moreover, we don't have to expose our plan too early to ensure its implementation. We can hide in the dark corners and wait for the opportunity to act."

"Don't be happy too soon. This may not be a good thing. After all, we want to scare Canbai away when the plan begins, so that the support of the Hero Association at that time will collapse, and then take advantage of that time to complete the mission. Now that Canbai has left early, the Hero Association has sent so many people over, which will cause us more trouble."

"I don't think it matters. The biggest risk at the beginning was that Canbai was afraid that the rumors about the Dark King were false. If they were exposed, they might not be able to escape. Now that she's gone, the risk no longer exists. No matter how many others come, will they dare to make a fuss once the Dark King comes to the fore?"

"Oh, that's right. Huaimannuo Bosen is not only able to scare Canbai away. At worst, we are still here. Let's go. We don't need to continue observing here. No one knows of our existence yet. Don't expose yourself easily. After we find out whether Canbai is really missing or not, we have to leave!"

"Too."

……

At this time, in front of the gate of the Hero Association building, Dawn arrived here early to gather intelligence. However, he still didn't hear any news about the appearance of the Dark King. Instead, some people sold him a lot of secret techniques about "why the Dark King is so strong" and he was dragged to see a lot of "powerful" weapons.

That's it. Liming found that the booming business scene around him didn't seem like the behavior of a company that was about to face a major crisis. He couldn't help but squint his eyes and think about the secrets hidden in it.

There is only one truth, and that is... these counterfeits are hiding very deeply!

Yes, it’s “these”!

Being able to impersonate him and appear in front of the Hero Association and then wipe out all traces completely is most likely a gang crime!

Moreover, the only people who knew about the appearance of the 'Dark King' were the top brass of the Hero Association. The Hero Association would definitely conceal the news of the Dark King's appearance to avoid causing panic, and those impostors did not appear again, otherwise the Hero Association would not have been able to suppress this matter!

Li Ming thought about it and became more and more convinced that this was the case. Although he didn't know the other party's exact purpose, he secretly made up his mind that if those guys dared to show up again, he would let them see what a beating was like!

At this moment, Dawn was walking towards the Hero Association building, ready to inquire about the whereabouts of Canbai. In order not to attract other people's attention, Dawn had taken off his mask and was still wearing ordinary clothes.

However, Dawn, who did not want to stand out and attract attention, ended up being out of place among her surroundings because she was too ordinary.

Because many people around are active heroes, muscular men, swordsmen, knights in martial arts robes, etc. They all have their own abilities and appearances, and at the very least, they have weapons or boxing belts on their hands.

Dawn looked at the people around him. Although he knew that it would be better for him to bring some weapons or something to scare people, Dawn, who was used to going empty-handed, finally felt too lazy to do anything and went straight to the door of the Hero Association building.

Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the guards.

"Hey, little brother, our Hero Association has had a lot of big shots come in and out these days, so we are not providing any consulting services to informal trainee heroes. Informal heroes cannot enter here without a pass card. You should come back in a couple of days."

89. Oh no, it’s a boss!

After some investigation, Liming realized that it was because other cities had sent people here that the number of upper-level figures in the Hero Association building increased. As a result, there was no time and space for a lot of manpower and material resources in the Hero Association building. In order to avoid some disputes that are easy to arise between the upper and lower levels, the entry and exit of the lowest level people with a larger and more mixed flow of people were restricted.

"Little brother, you also know the situation today. There are too many bosses and figures. You'd better leave quickly. Otherwise, if something goes wrong later, it will definitely be someone like you who will be in trouble."

The old guard who was talking to Liming saw that Liming had no intention of leaving, so he couldn't help but give him some advice. Then he winked at some people with broad shoulders, straight waists and stern faces in other places, implying to Liming that guys like those were not easy to deal with, and it would be best for him to leave.

Li Ming saw that the guard had good intentions and seemed to be afraid that Li Ming would be bullied by others, so he nodded. However, he did not leave. He had a special badge, and an ID card would only reveal his identity.

"I know, but I have..."

Before Liming could finish his words, a middle-aged man in a noble black suit and a tie around his neck came over with an irritated look on his face and shouted, waving one hand in disgust at the old security guard.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey! How many times have I told you that if someone like this comes these two days, stop him and send him away without any nagging! There are many more people coming later, what's the point of letting him stand at the gate? You are an old man too, you won't joke about your salary, right? Hurry up!"

The middle-aged man was a manager on the third floor of the Hero Association building. He shouted a few words as he walked over quickly, and then he didn't care about what was happening here anymore. He hurried to the other side, then greeted those people with extraordinary temperament in the hall with a smile, one by one.

The old guard smiled awkwardly, then said earnestly: "Look, it's like this. I'm not trying to make things difficult for you, but you should come back in a few days..."

The old security guard said this and was about to take Liming away from the gate. It seemed that because he was talking about the salary, he was now more direct.

This made Liming helpless. He stopped the old guard's action and took out a small black badge from his arms.

The old security guard was distressed and helpless when he saw that Liming had no intention of leaving. After thinking that he had no choice but to chase him away, he suddenly saw the small and unique thing that Liming took out, and his eyes widened.

This... is this a special badge for covert operations! ?

The old guard's heart skipped a beat and his spirit tensed up instantly. He took a deep breath and glanced around without being noticed. After making sure that no one was noticing, he secretly reached inside his cuffs and took out a small scanner.

Special Operations Badge, this is a special identity badge issued within the Hero Association. If someone appears with this thing, it means that this person is carrying out an extremely secret special mission.

The validity period of each special badge is extremely short. At the same time, when being scanned, the holder must tap a secret code on the special badge. Once the identity is confirmed successfully, the unconditional and secret cooperation of all the insiders in the middle and lower levels of the Hero Association is required.

Needless to say, those who have this thing are all bosses.

Liming took out his secret special badge with a permanent validity period and secretly asked the guard to scan it without even having to type in a secret code.

The short validity period and the secret code are specially set because there is a fear that this thing will fall into the hands of criminals and cause trouble, but the one that Liming carries in his hand always ignores these.

However, the old guard felt uneasy when he saw that Liming did not give the secret signal.

This...could it be that a criminal stole the special badge and used it to impersonate someone else?

Just when he was feeling uneasy, the scanner in his hand vibrated to remind him that his identity had been approved. This shock made him panic.

This...it's passed already?

This was the first time the old security guard had seen such a thing in all his long career. However, his experience allowed him to remain calm and he stepped aside to let Liming in.

Every time the special warrant badge is passed, the upper level will conduct a secret verification. He doesn't need to care about what happens. No matter whether it is true or false, he just needs to cooperate mindlessly.

"Young man... this boss, please come in."

Li Ming smiled at this and couldn't help but say, "Uncle, you don't have to be so reserved."

The old guard looked at Liming, then secretly glanced at the manager who had just told him to get rid of the people, wiped his sweat for himself and the manager, then smiled kindly.

"The upper floors are all bosses. The boss is joking. The boss is joking. Please come in."

90. Looking for teammates

Under the watchful eyes of the old security guard, Dawn walked into the gate of the Hero Association and looked at the various service windows and facilities around him with some curiosity.

When he was still the Goddess of Light, there was the headquarters of the Hero Association in the city where he and Qianqian lived - Spallongen. And the place where she, the Goddess of Light, lived was a large base area that did not have a branch of the Hero Association in this Shiguang City. The association buildings in the two places were also built differently.

Moreover, because he was too famous, whenever he entered or left the association building, which had a large flow of people, he would be surrounded by three layers of guards inside and outside, which was really too troublesome.

Therefore, Dawn, who had little contact with the service structure of the Hero Association Building and didn't know much about it, was now unsure where to go to inquire for information.

Liming looked around the hall on this floor and gradually discovered something strange, that is, there were too many people.

There were many people standing in the hall. People with completely different clothes were mixed together and divided into many small groups. The conversations were chaotic, and the staff of the Hero Association who were wandering among the crowd were also busy and exhausted.

Normally, when someone comes, they will be received into the reception room or sent to other floors according to the situation. But now they are crowded in this hall, and people keep coming in from outside the door, making it gradually seem a bit crowded.

Out of confusion, Liming reached out and stopped a lady in a black work uniform who was walking hurriedly nearby to ask about the situation.

"Well, I want to ask..."

The lady who was stopped by Liming was pretty and charming. After being stopped, she glanced at Liming quickly, but frowned in displeasure and did not let Liming finish his question.

"I'm sorry, sir. The service personnel you should look for are those in blue uniforms. I have something else to do. Excuse me."

The lady in black spoke fast and walked fast as well, but she was walking towards the gate. Moreover, as she got closer to the gate, her pace gradually slowed down. A beautiful smile appeared on her face, and finally she stood at the gate, as if waiting for someone to come.

Li Ming was halfway through his words when he saw the young lady standing at the door and was speechless.

At this moment, Liming heard a laugh coming from the side. When he turned around, he saw a young man approaching him with a smile. Then he put his elbow on Liming's shoulder in a familiar manner, winked at the lady in black in front of Liming, and said.

"My friend, are you interested in her too? Hehe, that face, those breasts, that hips, that walking posture, wow, so exciting!"

Just when Liming thought this man was a little weird, three men and two women came over, and one of the men said.

"Hey, Shaodong, we don't know who the people here are, don't get too close to them."

Li Shaodong looked at his companions, smiled, and shrugged indifferently.

"What does it matter? As long as we have a common goal, can't we talk to each other?"

As he spoke, he looked at the lady in black near the door and touched his chin in a slightly obscene manner.

"It's pretty, but it's a pity that I don't have the identity to get it."

Li Ming saw the young man approaching him. He didn't mind what he said, so he asked, "Excuse me, what's the situation with so many people here?"

When Li Shaodong heard this, he was stunned. Then he looked at Liming with a strange look and said, "You don't know?"

Seeing the young man's puzzled expression, Liming was a little embarrassed. He was only concerned with inquiring about Canbai's whereabouts yesterday, and only heard that many heroes from other places would come. He had no idea what was going on in the current situation.

“I haven’t heard anyone else talk about it.”

Hearing Liming's words, Li Shaodong was immediately amazed.

"It's amazing, I don't even know this. Look around here, do you know who they are?"

"They should all be professional heroes."

"Yes, as for why they came to our city, do you know the reason?"

"Well, I heard that it was Luo... Lord Canbai who disappeared."
