104: Chapter 104 The Dark Knight Squad

"No, Lord City Lord, but we found information regarding his team... Donald cancelled his team a few days ago after all the members of Falcon Squad perished, and then joined this new team."

"[Writing up to here, I hope readers remember our domain name, read Taiwan novels on Taiwan Novel Network, t w k a n . c o m, super worry-free]"

The secret realm camp officer hurriedly handed the newly investigated information in front of Jiang Xingdong.

When the latter saw the bronze-rank-one name "Thunder Hajimi Team" and that baffling logo of "six sets of fierce attack kitty heads," he couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Upon seeing the sole piece of information within the team, his brows furrowed even deeper.

"Pioneers from an external base city? No registered name, only a code name... Yanzu. What does this mean?"

In the team's registration information, the captain Yanzu didn't even register his own strength level.

Beep, beep, beep...

The energy monitor sounded again. Under everyone's watchful eyes, the energy value that was just 796 unexpectedly dropped again to 789.

This indicated that Donald and that Yanzu inside the secret realm right now not only did not die,

but also found a high-value container, or rather... killed the boss.

On Lei Xiao's consistently stern face, as he looked at the photo of "Yanzu" on the panel, a trace of a smile appeared for the first time.

"Heh, it seems that Huangshan Base City also has an abundance of talented people..."

...

Jiang Long's body was nervously bound.

The black cloth bag covering his head, which was clearly a collection item, not only prevented him from seeing everything outside, but even isolated his source energy perception.

He only felt as if he was being taken very, very far away by someone.

During the period, he even took a teleportation device.

When the black hood on his head was removed, he was astonished to discover that he had already placed himself within an elegant yet eerie huge villa.

By his ears, the moment his originally isolated hearing was recovering, it was covered by the surrounding melodious, grand, yet nameless symphony music.

And those playing the instruments turned out to be one black raven after another...

The absurd everything made Jiang Long instinctively swallow a mouthful of saliva nervously.

Amidst the Western-style decoration, high-end carpets, and precious displays, the moment Jiang Long raised his head, he abruptly saw that figure who once brought him supreme despair in the secret realm.

Jiang Long's body involuntarily began to tremble, and cold sweat broke out in profusion.

Just by sitting upon that high seat, that man's casually glancing gaze with his head tilted caused Jiang Long's body to instinctively enter a state of extreme fear, spasms, and weakness.

Beside him.

President Sha Lie of the Shazhou Chamber of Commerce in Huangshan Base City had his hood snatched off by someone at this moment as well.

However, after seeing Mo Mio in person, his face instantly flushed red with excitement.

Kneeling on the ground.

"Lord President, thank you for being willing to see me. Your subordinate, President Sha Lie of the Shazhou Chamber of Commerce, is willing to offer all loyalty to the great Night Crow Society!"

The butler carried a box and walked to Mo Mio's side.

"Master, this is the thing he brought..."

He gave a faint glance at the eyes-closed head inside the box.

Seeing this, Sha Lie hurriedly spoke with excitement: "Lord President, this brat is called Chu Hong. He is one of the three people from the Source Energy Middle School in Huangshan Base City who applied to Longming Sacred Academy this year. It was he who discovered the hidden treasure chest of the secret realm [Thunder-Horned Lizardman Tribe], as well as the safe route to earn source energy points, ruining Lord President's major plans!"

He gave a tug to Jiang Long, who had been unable to squeeze out a single word for a long time due to fear ever since coming in.

"It was Captain Jiang who made a move and finished off that brat. Daring to obstruct Lord President's path, that brat died still too cheaply..."

Mo Mio merely gave a calm glance and waved his hand directly to have the butler take the things away.

His pupils looked toward the pale-faced Jiang Long.

Although the other party's uncomposed appearance at this moment was extremely unsightly, but... there were countless people who feared him, and this powerful outsider was indeed worth nurturing; at the very least, he had to be stronger than those few newcomer teams sent up this year!

To be wiped out entirely by being tricked by a brat who hadn't even enrolled in Source Energy University.

Within this elegant gathering hall, the ravens were passionately playing Wagner's "Tannhäuser Overture."

"Jiang Long?"

A faint murmur made Jiang Long's body tremble once more.

"I, I am here..."

Mo Mio smiled, the smile paired with the raven standing on his shoulder appearing eerie and mysterious: "You went through all sorts of schemes to come find me, and even knelt before my presence... Don't you feel you are letting down those teammates of yours who died at my hands?"

Kneeling on the ground with his hands pressed against his thighs, Jiang Long instantly clenched his fists tightly.

The flashing scenes of his dearly departed teammates dying miserably in his mind made his already pale complexion grow even paler. However, when the final image in his mind settled on the scene where Mo Mio easily crushed City Lord Jiang Xingdong like an infant,

Jiang Long's eyes were scarlet.

With a "bang!", he actually slammed his head directly onto the ground toward Mo Mio.

"Mas—Master... I want power!"

Mo Mio laughed as he looked at Jiang Long, who was humbly prostrating on the ground.

"Very good, smart people should know best what they want and also know what price they should pay..." He paused, a hint of trickery carrying within his tone.

"I will not arrange any subordinates for you, but I permit you to recruit your own team members yourself, as long as they can pass the Night Crow Society's test of loyalty."

"As for precisely where to find people, I believe President Sha is clearer about it than I am."

Sha Lie repeatedly stated he didn't dare, but he was also made beaming with smiles by Mo Mio's praise.

Once the butler led Jiang Long away, Sha Lie nervously brought up another matter.

"Lord President, before we came here today, Qianchongzhai Base City dispatched reinforcements that arrived at Huangshan Base City. It is the gold-rank Leikai Team, and the person leading the team is Lei Xiao..."

Leikai Team... Mo Mio waved his hand.

"The Underworld Knight Squad will resolve all of this..."

Meanwhile, inside a deep, dungeon-like underground space beneath the Night Crow Society headquarters, on the wall in front of five figures, a cluster of bizarrely bursting dark red energy suddenly bloomed.

The energy instantly transformed into a light gate.

And at almost the exact same time.

[Cliffside Epidemic Hospital] secret realm camp.

The secret realm teleportation portal flashed with light, and Chu Hong, along with Donald, whose expression was still somewhat dazed, walked out together from the halo.

"Old Tang!"

Lan Yujing discovered the two of them at the first moment and stepped forward excitedly.

"You came out safely! Have you discovered the location of the high-value container?" She couldn't help but be excited; in order to be able to investigate this information,

not only was Donald's Falcon Squad gone, but the Black Shadow Team under her Rose Squad was also completely wiped out, and several other teams had suffered heavy losses as well.

Jiang Xingdong walked up quickly, followed behind by Lei Xiao and other reinforcements from Qianchongzhai Base City.

"I..." Donald's mind was still immersed in how Chu Hong brought him all the way as if entering an uninhabited realm, walking zombies and bosses while searching through the vast majority of high-value containers in the secret realm.

He looked dazedly toward Chu Hong beside him.

Just as he was hesitating whether to state this information,

the teleportation portal behind them suddenly bloomed with a red light full of a ferocious feeling.

Jiang Xingdong's pupils abruptly constricted, and Lan Yujing instantly thought of the terrifying memories from a few days ago, the color draining sharply from her pretty face.

"It's the Black Hole Council! They've started acting again!"
