He still felt that it was too outrageous to let a high school girl be an agent and protect himself, but considering that he seemed to have just been beaten like this by a girl of the same age, he finally shut up.

Whatever, we already have Xiaoyu, so it won’t be any worse if there’s another one, right?

......

Mafia base, inside the building.

"Well done, you are worthy of being my Wallon's right-hand man."

Facing Tohru and Takina who successfully brought back the shield, Valon was not stingy at all and praised them for their contributions. Then he took the shield from Takina.

"Holy Lord, here comes what you want."

Facing the shield in front of him, the eyes of the statue of the Holy Lord hanging on the wall glowed red.

The next second, an octagonal stone engraved with a rooster pattern flew out from the groove of the shield in the center and embedded into one of the twelve grooves on the statue of the Holy Lord.

"Well... I can feel that the strength is back, although not all of it, Valon, you did very well."

"Then Holy Lord, the treasure you promised me before..."

Hearing the Holy Lord's high-spirited tone at this time, Valon stretched out two fingers and rubbed them together inconspicuously.

"Don't worry, when you collect all twelve talismans for me, I will fulfill my promise."

"Ok."

Hearing that he couldn't get the money now, Valon was suddenly discouraged. He stopped paying attention to the Holy Lord and looked at Tru and Takina behind him.

"Just now, I got a new piece of information. There are traces of something that looks like a talisman in a certain pyramid."

"Take a rest today. Tomorrow you will take those three idiots and bring back the talisman."

"Yes, sir." ×2

After leaving the room where Valon was, Tohru and Takina walked towards the lower floors of the building one after the other.

"That's not a place to rest."

As if noticing that Takina was heading in the wrong direction, Tohru stopped.

The floor they were on at the moment was the area that Valon had arranged for these mafia members to stay in, but Takina did not stop at all, and it was obvious that she was planning to leave the building directly.

"Where I go is none of your business."

Looking back at the giant Tohru, Takina spoke without giving in.

In the previous actions, she had almost figured out the opponent's strengths. Although he was stronger, he was just a big fool at best. For Takina, it was nothing more than a matter of firing a bullet after activating the skill enhancement.

In the face of Takina's provocative answer, Tohru frowned, but ultimately did not choose to take action.

After all, it wasn't unreasonable for Takina to want to leave the building that was the Mafia's base at this moment.

Because they successfully brought back the shield today, Valon not only praised them verbally, but also gave them a large bonus.

If you have money, you naturally want to go out and spend it. After all, isn't the ultimate goal of those who join the mafia for money?

Although Tru often sent the money he earned from the Mafia to his mother, before Takina joined the Mafia, Afen, Lasu and Zhou San often went out to spend money after completing a mission. Tru had seen many such scenes, so he naturally would not think otherwise about Takina's plan to leave the Mafia base.

"You have a mission tomorrow, I hope you won't mess it up."

In the end, Tru chose to leave after leaving a word.

In fact, he hoped that the other party would mess up tomorrow's operation, and then he would complete the task assigned by Valon. In this way, no one would threaten his position in the Mafia.

Looking at Tohru's back, Takina turned around and, without trying to cover up, walked out of the building openly and left the mafia base.

......

An hour later, in a remote residential area.

Takina quietly avoided the surveillance cameras along the way, then came to an apartment and knocked on the door.

A moment later, the door opened, a hand stretched out from inside, pulled Takina outside the door in, and then quickly closed it.

Faced with this scene, Takina was not panicked, because the person who was pulling her at this time was Chitsuko who belonged to the righteous camp.

In addition to Qian Shu, Qin Tian was also in the room at this moment, sitting on the sofa with a plate of half-eaten fruit next to him.

Judging from the bumps and grooves on the sofa, Qian Shu seemed to be sitting on the same sofa with Qin Tian eating fruit before he came?

Such doubts popped up in Takina's mind.

"Would you like to eat something? This is the fruit platter Qin Tian made."

Chizuka pulled Takina to sit on the sofa and said at the same time.

Oh, that's okay.

"Want to eat."

Takina nodded immediately, then picked up a piece of fruit with a toothpick and put it in her mouth.

As delicious as ever, it’s hard to imagine how an ordinary fruit platter can taste like this.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start exchanging information."

Just listen to Qin Tian speaking.

Just as he said now, the apartment they were in at the moment was the place the three of them had agreed in advance to exchange information between different camps. It was also Qin Tian's residence in the copy. He stayed here yesterday and the entire day today.

After all, Chizuka and Takina had accommodation allocated by their respective camps, but the neutral camp to which Qin Tian belonged had nothing in the true sense.

Oh, by the way, the money for renting the apartment was paid by Qianzhu and Takina. Qin Tian, ​​who was in the neutral camp, did not have a penny in the copy.

Chapter 112: Exchange of Intelligence

In the rental house, after Qin Tian, ​​Qianzhu and Takina all arrived, the three of them officially began to exchange information.

"Well, let's start with me."

Qianshu was the first to speak, talking about the information she had obtained from the righteous camp.

"On the positive side, the one who collected the talismans was District 13. They didn't seem to know the ability of the talismans at first, and they might not even know the existence of the talismans. They were just an agent organization that acted to stop the Mafia, which was the force that Takina joined on the black side."

"Oh, yes, the internal management of this organization is relatively loose, at least much looser than the internal management of the spy organization I remember. Director Black, as the leader, is also very easygoing, which is very different from the spy chief I remember."

As he spoke, Qianzhu showed a somewhat conflicted expression.

You know, even an agent organization like Likolis, whose entire agents are composed of high school age JK girls and sounds very unserious, has a more serious internal atmosphere than District 13. In comparison, the serious official agent organization like District 13 where Chitsuka is now has become the unserious one.

However, these have nothing to do with Qianshu. After all, her real identity now is a player, and the identity in the copy is only temporary. Although she has the title of the current ace agent of District 13, Qianshu feels that she can only be regarded as a temporary worker in essence.

She is just an ordinary player. She just needs to complete the tasks honestly and there is no need to worry about the things in the dungeon.

"As for the talisman, I have only received a few pieces of information so far."

"First, talismans are not ordinary items. Each talisman contains powerful magic and has different abilities."

"Second, the pattern on the talisman seems to be a reference to the twelve Chinese zodiac signs. According to speculation, there are twelve of them. The talisman that Takina took away today is the talisman on the shield. The pattern on it is a rooster in the twelve Chinese zodiac signs, which is the rooster talisman."

"Third, the nominal force in the Righteousness Camp that collects talismans is District 13, but the real main force collecting talismans is currently the members of an antique shop called Daddy. District 13 Director Blake trusts the members of the antique shop very much and has a deep friendship with them. Now I have been transferred to this antique shop to protect the safety of the members of the antique shop."

After listening to Qianzhu's description, Qin Tian and Takina nodded.

"In that case, the only member of the righteous camp that the black and neutral camps need to deal with is the one in the antique shop called Daddy."

As he spoke, Qin Tian turned his gaze to Takina beside him.

Since Chizuka has finished telling the information he got from the righteous camp, it is naturally Takina's turn next.

I saw Takina organize her words a little.

"On the Black Qi camp side, the force that openly collects the talismans is the Mafia, which has five main members. But in fact, the real purpose of the Mafia collecting the talismans is to serve a statue that calls itself the Holy Lord. The other party is also the real mastermind behind the Black Qi camp's collection of talismans."

"The true form of the talisman is an octagonal stone with animal patterns carved on it. After the Holy Lord obtained the talisman, he embedded it in the groove of his own statue. The shape of the groove is consistent with the talisman. When the Holy Lord retrieved the talisman, he said something like his power had returned. It can be inferred that the talisman may have once belonged to the Holy Lord."

"And Qianshu's guess that there are twelve talismans is correct. I have carefully observed the statue of the Holy Lord before. There are twelve grooves on it. I suspect that if all twelve talismans are embedded in the grooves, something bad will happen."

All I heard was Takina describing what she saw and heard in the Black Qi camp, and she also helped Chitose confirm her guess about the number of talismans.

"In addition, the Holy Lord has a special ability to summon black shadow ninjas. Those ninjas can sneak in the dark. Their specific strength is still unknown. If you encounter them, you'd better be careful."

After digesting some of what Takina said, Chizuka touched her chin.

"Then, Takina, have you received any notifications about the progress of the mission?"

“I’ve already given you a heads up.”

As she spoke, Takina opened the task panel.

Dream Player: Inoue Takina

Main quest: Obtain at least three [Talismans] from your own camp (1/3)

Mission Reward: Get a random [Talisman]*1 from the player's own camp

------

Side quest: Collect [Talisman] (1/4)

Mission Reward: When the player's own camp collects more than four talismans for the first time, he will be rewarded with [Number of Random Draws]*1

------

"Now that we know the specific appearance of the talisman, the next mission objective is very clear."

After seeing Takina's mission progress, Qin Tian spoke.

Because they didn't know the specific appearance of the talisman, the actions of the three people were always very passive, especially Qin Tian, ​​who was in the neutral camp. Due to the lack of information, he did not take any action from beginning to end.

Chizuka and Takina naturally understood this. After all, they were not much better than Qin Tian before, and all their actions were basically carried out under the impetus of their respective camps.

And now that the true meaning of the talisman is known, there are many other things, at least Qin Tian can finally act together with them.

"Takina, does your camp have a location to obtain the next talisman?"

According to the description of the previous task, after one camp obtains a talisman, it will get information about the next talisman.

In response to this, Takina nodded without hesitation and informed Qin Tian and Qianshu of the information she had just obtained from the leader of the mafia organization, Walon.

"After the amulet was brought back to the Mafia base, the leader of the Mafia organization, Valon, got the information about the second amulet and claimed that traces of the amulet were found in a certain pyramid."

"According to Valon's order, several mafia members including me will set out for the location of the pyramid tomorrow to look for new amulets."

As she spoke, Takina told the two the exact location and information of the pyramid.

"From this perspective, the faction that gets the talisman first has a huge advantage. Doesn't that mean they are directly ahead of the other factions?"

I only heard Qianshu sigh.

Originally, they thought that the camp that got the talisman first would only obtain some vague related information at most, so that the gap between different camps would not be too far. However, they did not expect that what they got in the end was actually the specific location of the talisman.

If this is the case, then the advantage of the camp that takes the talisman first can only be described as boundless. If the other camps react a little slower, it is very likely that one camp will have collected all twelve talismans, while the other two camps are still looking for the location of the second talisman. It is truly a one-step-faster-step-faster situation.

Fortunately, they are now divided into three camps, so there is no need to worry about any side lagging behind in intelligence.

Chapter 113: Qin Tian's Actions

"Based on the current intelligence, at least we don't need to worry about the number of talismans. Twelve talismans, three camps, four talismans for each camp, just enough to complete the main and side quests at the same time."

"Also, since we have infiltrated the three camps at the same time, during the fight for the amulet, we can easily rely on our advantages to decide which camp will get the amulet in the end."

"The only problem is that if we want to fully utilize our strengths, it would be best if all three camps were present."

Although the number of talismans is enough for three people to complete the task at the same time, because they are scattered among three camps, Qin Tian, ​​Qianshu and Takina must accurately control the number of talismans in each camp. There must be exactly four talismans in one camp, neither more nor less.

And now, since the black camp where Takina is has already obtained a talisman, the next talisman will naturally be obtained by Takina from the righteous camp and Qin Tian from the neutral camp.

The problem is that the righteous camp where Qianshu is currently located does not yet know the information about the second talisman.

Qin Tian's side is not so bad. As a member of the neutral camp, he can decide whether to act on his own. But Qian Shu, who is in the righteous camp, must take the copy characters of the righteous camp into consideration. Even if he already knows the information about the next talisman, he cannot act on his own.

Moreover, since Takina, who provided the information, belonged to the Black Qi camp, even if Qianzhu wanted to tell the information to other copy characters in the same camp, he could not explain the source of the information.

In other words, without considering the intervention of external forces, if Qianshu does not want to expose the relationship between the three people, he can only wait for the copy characters on the righteous camp to slowly investigate the information about the talisman. It is unknown when he can take action again.

Fortunately, the three of them had considered this before.

From the perspective of the righteous camp or the evil camp, it might be very difficult to exchange information without exposing their relationship. However, it is different with Qin Tian, ​​who is in the neutral camp, as a bridge of communication.

"It's my turn to take action next."

Qin Tian was just sitting on the sofa and talking. Then he seemed to suddenly think of something and spoke again.
