65: Chapter 65 Dongfang Chen Comes Out
“I also received the notification a few days ago, saying that you plan to establish a Mercenary Guild here.
Boss Niu thought it would be more suitable for me to be the guild leader, so he had me return.
Zhenhai has a new mission and has rushed to the Capital City,” Brother Zhang said.
Niu Xingwang nodded, just about to speak, when his bone-conduction microphone rang; Oriental Chen was calling.
“Hello, Mr. Dongfang,” Niu Xingwang answered the phone.
“Brother Niu, Qu Zhengping just reported a new situation, and it concerns you,” Oriental Chen said.
“Oh? It concerns me?” Niu Xingwang was surprised.
Qu Zhengping's codename is Lark, and he is in the Huai Ling Settlement in Huaizhou.
“How could he have news related to me?” Niu Xingwang wondered.
“Yes, he has infiltrated a sect called the Red Coat Sect.
Just now, he received news that three Enforcerss will secretly go to Merlin.
Their target is you,” Oriental Chen said.
“Red Coat Sect? What kind of sect is that? Why do they want to deal with me?” Niu Xingwang felt bewildered.
“It’s not clear yet; wait for his further news.
You should prepare early and absolutely not be careless,” Oriental Chen replied.
“Okay!” Niu Xingwang agreed.
“By the way, has Brother Zhang arrived?” Oriental Chen asked.
“Just arrived.”
“Good! Then you two discuss how to handle it.
I’ll call you again if I have any news.”
After speaking, Oriental Chen hung up the phone.
“Boss Niu, what happened?” Brother Zhang asked, frowning.
“Just now, Mr. Dongfang called and said that a group called the Red Coat Sect sent three Enforcerss to Mos, planning to deal with me,” Niu Xingwang replied.
“Red Coat Sect?” Brother Zhang was startled.
“What? Old Zhang, have you heard of them?” Boss Niu asked.
“More than heard of them, I even had an encounter once,” Brother Zhang said.
“When? Where?” Boss Niu continued to ask.
“Before New Year’s Day, in the Capital City.
It was an accidental encounter.
There were five of them, all wearing dark red cloaks and masks, moving in a hurry.
As soon as I was about to go up and ask, they directly attacked.
All five of them were very skilled.
If I’m not mistaken, they should all be Mutants, and Mutants who have mastered abilities.
Fortunately, I had also awakened my ability at the time, so they couldn’t keep me.
It’s also possible they had an urgent mission and didn’t want to linger,” Brother Zhang briefly explained.
“Does Mr. Dongfang know about this situation?” Niu Xingwang asked.
“Yes.
I reported it at the time.
Boss Niu only said one thing: ‘Be careful.’
” Brother Zhang replied.
“It seems we still know so little about this world!” Niu Xingwang exclaimed.
“Indeed.
But we must handle this matter carefully.”
“Exactly.
Later, I’ll take you out to meet everyone.
These are all retired soldiers I recently recruited, a total of 100 people.
The members of the field team have already been vaccinated; this portion will be assigned to your command.”
Niu Xingwang led Zhang Yuankui to the first-floor hall and gathered everyone.
He informed everyone that Celestial Fiend was a newly recruited employee, formerly a special forces soldier.
He would subsequently be fully responsible for the affairs of the Mercenary Guild, and all 43 members of the field team were transferred to the Mercenary Guild.
“Good.
From now on, all field missions of our Huatong Chamber of Commerce will be solely handled by the Mercenary Guild.”
Subsequently, Niu Xingwang led Shen Wengang to the Mercenary Guild’s office.
“Celestial Fiend, the Mercenary Guild will be under your management from now on.”
In front of everyone, Niu Xingwang shook hands with Zhang Yuankui as a gesture and said.
“Don’t worry, Boss Niu, I won’t let you down,” Zhang Yuankui replied with a smile.
…
Two days later.
January 7, 2055.
“Xiao Lin, it should be fine now.
He’s armed to the teeth; there’s definitely no problem,” Oriental Chen said with a smile.
“Commander…” Xiao Lin was about to persuade him but was interrupted.
“Alright, alright!
I know!
My safety is of great importance and cannot be risked lightly!
I’ve heard it so many times my ears are calloused.
But you must understand, I am a human, not a robot.
I can’t stay in a confined space for thousands or tens of thousands of years like you.
You should adjust the plan well during this time, give me more scenes; I can’t always stay hidden in the base,” Oriental Chen complained at length.
He had indeed been stifled during this time.
His only chance to “go out” was when someone came to the safe house.
No matter who came, he would quickly go out and take a look.
“Alright, it’s almost time; I should set off.
Oh, and the main control cabin should be almost ready, right?
Once the main control cabin is built, you can directly start building the production cabin; you don’t need to report to me anymore.”
“Understood, Commander.”
“Okay, if anything happens, contact me through the bone-conduction microphone.
That’s all.”
After speaking, Oriental Chen left the office.
…
“La-di-da, la-di-da…” Oriental Chen walked on the messy road, humming a song he didn’t know the name of.
“Stop!” Oriental Chen was enjoying himself when someone suddenly shouted from behind him.
“Huh?” Oriental Chen turned his head.
“Whose kid are you? What are you doing wandering around here?” a burly man asked sternly.
