Chapter 705: Shen Long's son guards the night, and it is difficult to decide the camp position
When Lin Qiye heard Wu Hen's words, his heart skipped a beat.
"You mean, someone arranged this on purpose?" Lin Qiye asked in a low voice, with a hint of doubt and vigilance in his eyes.
"Isn't that right?"
Wu Hen winked and made an expression that said, "I've seen through everything."
"Think about it, rookies like us, with no experience, going head-to-head with an ace team like Nightfall? Isn't that like asking for trouble? I bet someone's trying to take advantage!"
Wu Hen's system also joined in the fun. [Mission: Investigate the conspiracy behind the new recruit assessment! Reward: A mysterious treasure chest (open it to find a surprise!)]
Wu Hen felt so happy, this system was simply tailor-made for him.
He patted Lin Qiye's shoulder and smiled brightly: "Qiye, what do you think? Are you interested in investigating together? Maybe we can get some benefits!"
Lin Qiye looked at Wu Hen's eager look and shook his head helplessly.
He felt that he had boarded Wu Hen's pirate ship and probably couldn't get off.
"Okay, let's take a look together." Lin Qiye sighed and said.
The two discussed it and decided to start with the list of new recruits taking the test.
"By the way, Qiye, do you think that some of the new recruits this time have a strange aura?" Wu Hen suddenly asked.
"strangeness?"
Lin Qiye was stunned. "You mean... they are not ordinary people?"
"Hehe, I'm just guessing." Wu Hen touched his nose.
"But it's always better to be safe than sorry!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly came: "What are you two whispering about?"
Lin Qiye and Wu Hen looked back and found that it was Instructor Yuan Gang who was approaching.
"Nothing... nothing." Lin Qiye said quickly.
Instructor Yuan Gang glanced at the two of them sharply, then said, "That's good. Train well and don't think about those unnecessary things!"
After saying that, Instructor Yuan Gang turned and left.
Lin Qiye and Wu Hen looked at each other and saw seriousness in each other's eyes.
"It seems that things are more complicated than we thought!" Wu Hen said.
"Yes." Lin Qiye nodded.
The two decided to hold back for the time being and observe the situation first.
On the other side, Instructor Yuan Gang came to a secluded room.
In the room, a young man was standing by the window, looking at the scenery in the distance.
"Lu Baoyou, how long have you been here?" Instructor Yuan Gang asked.
The young man turned around, revealing a slightly childish face.
He is Lucifer's agent, Lu Baoyou.
"Instructor Yuan, I've been here for a few days." Lu Baoyou said lightly.
"How do you feel?" Instructor Yuan Gang asked.
"Not bad." Lu Baoyou replied.
Instructor Yuan Gang was silent for a moment, then said, "Do you know why I recruited you into the Night's Watch?"
Lu Baoyou shook her head.
"Because you are Lu Qiu's son." Instructor Yuan Gang said.
Lu Baoyou's body trembled slightly, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
"I..." Lu Baoyou was about to say something when he was interrupted by Instructor Yuan Gang.
"I know you have a lot of questions in your mind," said Instructor Yuan Gang.
"But now is not the time to tell you the truth."
"However, what I can tell you is that your father is a hero," Instructor Yuan Gang added.
A hint of doubt flashed in Lu Baoyou's eyes.
"Hero?" Lu Baoyou muttered to himself.
Instructor Yuan Gang sighed and said, "Actually, I didn't intend to recruit you into the Night's Watch from the beginning."
"Why?" asked Lu Baoyou.
"Because your identity is too special." Instructor Yuan Gang explained,
"You are Lu Qiu's son and a divine agent. Your presence will bring a lot of uncertainty to the Night's Watch."
"Then why did you change your mind now?" Lu Baoyou asked.
"Because the situation requires it."
Instructor Yuan Gang said,
"The Night's Watch needs all the strength it can muster. Even if you are an unstable factor, I must take a gamble."
There was a hint of helplessness in Instructor Yuan Gang's tone.
"and……"
Instructor Yuan Gang paused and continued, "I have received the news of Lu Qiu's sacrifice."
Lu Baoyou's face turned pale in an instant.
"What did you say?" Lu Baoyou asked in disbelief.
"I said, Lu Qiu died." Instructor Yuan Gang repeated.
Lu Baoyou's body shook and he almost fell to the ground.
"Impossible... This is impossible..." Lu Baoyou muttered to himself.
Instructor Yuan Gang felt very uncomfortable when he saw Lu Baoyou's painful expression.
"I know it's hard for you to accept."
Instructor Yuan Gang said, "But this is the fact."
"I..." Lu Baoyou didn't know what to say.
Yuan Gang sighed heavily, his tone filled with regret: "Originally, I was planning to cancel your qualification this year. After you know this news, I will see what you want to do."
"Oh, that guy Lu Qiu, he's really..." He shook his head and didn't say anything else, but there was a hint of imperceptible caution in his expression.
"Lu Qiu...sacrificed?"
Lu Baoyou seemed to have been drained of all his strength. He slumped to the ground with empty eyes, repeating these words over and over again.
Yuan Gang patted his shoulder and comforted him, "I know this is a big blow to you, but you have to hold on."
"Your father is a hero. He would definitely want you to live well."
At the same time, Lin Qiye and Wu Hen were hiding in the corner of the training ground, discussing furtively.
"Hey, Qiye, why do you think Instructor Yuan called that kid over in such a mysterious way?" Wu Hen nudged Lin Qiye with his elbow, looking gossipy.
"Who knows?"
Lin Qiye shrugged. "Maybe it's a lecture. Look at that kid, he's so depressed. He must have been scolded badly."
Wu Hen's system suddenly popped up: [Mission: Eavesdrop on the conversation between Yuan Gang and Lu Baoyou! Reward: A copy of Super Gossip Encyclopedia!]
Wu Hen's eyes lit up. This system really understood him!
He rubbed his hands and said to Lin Qiye, "Qiye, let's go and listen to what they are saying."
"Are you crazy? If Instructor Yuan finds out that we are eavesdropping, he will skin us alive." Lin Qiye said in horror.
"What are you afraid of? I have a plan!"
Wu Hen smiled mysteriously and took out two strange-looking gadgets from his pocket.
"This is my latest invisible headset. Put it on and I guarantee no one will find us!"
Lin Qiye took the headphones and put them on with a half-believing attitude. Sure enough, the surrounding sounds disappeared.
Only Wu Hen's voice reached his ears clearly: "How is it? Amazing, right?"
"It's really something..." Lin Qiye couldn't help but admire Wu Hen's weird system.
The two of them quietly approached the room where Yuan Gang and Lu Baoyou were, and listened carefully.
"God's agent..."
They heard Yuan Gang's voice, with a hint of doubt in his tone, "How much do you know about this thing?"
Lin Qiye and Wu Hen looked at each other and saw shock in each other's eyes.
God's agent?
What it is?
"I... don't know much," Lu Baoyou's voice trembled.
"All I know is that I am the chosen...vessel..."
Container? Lin Qiye and Wu Hen were even more confused.
"You... have the aura of a fallen angel," Yuan Gang's voice suddenly became serious.
"How is this going?"
Fallen angel? !
Lin Qiye and Wu Hen gasped. This guy is actually related to the Fallen Angel?!
"I...I don't know..." Lu Baoyou's voice was filled with fear.
"I do not know anything…"
"Fallen angel..." Yuan Gang repeated the word in a low voice, frowning.
"Instructor, why are you so interested in God's agent?" Lin Qiye asked Wu Hen in a low voice.
"how could I know,"
Wu Hen was also confused. "But it sounds very powerful. Maybe it's some incredible secret!"
Suddenly, Yuan Gang's voice came again, with a hint of worry in his tone: "Michael and Lucifer... are mortal enemies..."
Yuan Gang's brows furrowed even tighter, as if they could pinch a mosquito to death.
"The grudges between them cannot be resolved in a short time."
"Anyway, you better be careful next time! Don't get dragged into their fight."
A subtle worry flashed across Lu Baoyou's face. He lowered his head, making it difficult to see his expression.
"I understand, instructor." He thought to himself, so what if Michael and Lucifer are mortal enemies?
What does this have to do with him?
The most important thing now is to improve your own strength, and the rest can be discussed later.
However, the conditions Lucifer had offered him previously always made him feel uneasy. Perhaps, all of this was related to him...
Yuan Gang looked at Lu Baoyou with mixed feelings.
After all, this kid is Lu Qiu's son. How could he bear to attack him?
However, his identity is so special. What if he is really used by Lucifer?
He sighed, hoping that his worries were unnecessary.
"Hey, what are they talking about? God's agent? Fallen angel? That sounds exciting!"
Wu Hen lowered his voice and spoke excitedly, with a gossipy glint in his eyes.
Lin Qiye was also shocked. He shook his head and said, "I don't know either."
"However, I think it's best for us to stay away from them. This kind of thing is not something we can get involved in."
Suddenly, screams were heard in the training camp, breaking the original peace.
"What's going on?" Lin Qiye and Wu Hen were both shocked and ran out quickly.
The training ground was in chaos. Many recruits gathered together, talking, with expressions of fear on their faces.
"It seems someone is injured!"
"Is there something wrong with the assessment?"
"I don't know, but I feel like this assessment is very abnormal!"
Three young recruits also gathered together.
One of the skinny recruits lowered his voice and said, "Will the people from Nightfall intervene? If they join in, our plan will be in trouble..."
