906: Harvest, good stuff

"Hmm." The woman nodded slightly in response: "Your name is Du Xingchen, right?"

"Yes."

"Based on the information I've reviewed, I've found that you and your classmates have always gotten along well. Why would you actively defect to our Divine Hall and betray your classmates?" The woman's question, clearly investigative, blurted out.

Seeing this, Du Xingchen felt a slight headache.

From the perspective of an outsider like Mu Qianjun, this question was the Goddess questioning the purpose of his joining the Divine Hall.

Appearing dutiful and strict in vetting.

However, in reality.

Du Xingchen, however, understood that this woman was helping Moyun eliminate potential dangers!

One could only say that Moyun's protagonist treatment was truly outrageous!

This Divine Hall Goddess was actually just Tool Person No. N who stood on Moyun's side.

Simply because she and Moyun had spent some time together when they were young, the Goddess still remembered Moyun even after growing up.

The situation could be described as melodramatic.

Thinking from the perspective of not wanting Moyun to be in danger, the Goddess had this conversation.

Although it was a headache, Du Xingchen still had to answer this question: "Joining the Divine Hall has always been my dream. As for betraying classmates, I think it shouldn't be viewed from my own perspective, but rather from the Divine Hall's intention."

"If Goddess believes I shouldn't target my classmates, then naturally, I won't take any harmful actions towards them."

Understanding the Goddess's thoughts, Du Xingchen naturally spoke according to her intentions.

There was no other way; the situation was such that he was destined not to be able to tell the truth.

"Hmm, your answer is quite good. No matter when, you should listen to our instructions." The woman nodded, her expression softening considerably.

In fact, up until now.

The Divine Hall high-ups had not yet expressed a clear stance on how to deal with the protagonist group.

They were still currently under observation.

Of course.

As the news of Moyun obtaining the ten-thousand-year Soul Card reached the Divine Hall headquarters, the headquarters also began to show signs of a change in attitude.

"These things are yours now. Remember to keep up the disguise." The Goddess casually threw a bracelet from the table to Du Xingchen.

This was a storage item.

Inside were the weapons, equipment, and various Cultivation resources prepared by the Divine Hall for Du Xingchen!

"Thank you, Goddess."

"No need to rush to thank me. There's something with an even more generous reward that I need your help with later." After the woman finished speaking, without waiting for Du Xingchen to ask, she immediately stated what she needed help with: "On the way to the Outer Domain with your classmates, you will meet me in disguise."

"At that time, find a way to get me into your team. It would be best if you could make me a member of your team without arousing suspicion!"

"If you succeed in this matter, the reward will be more than ten times what you currently have in your hand!"

The woman's meaning was very clear.

And her request was also within Du Xingchen's expectations.

However, this was not something Mu Qianjun had considered.

"Goddess, you want to become a member of this batch of Yunyong Academy's graduating National College Entrance Examination Students?!" Mu Qianjun's voice contained intense confusion; it was clear the Goddess had not discussed this matter with him before.

The woman nodded slightly, a hint of composure within the radiant beauty: "I know what you want to say. Rest assured, I have a sense of propriety regarding all of this."

"Joining their team this time is to understand them more clearly."

"At the same time, to uncover whether their parents truly left them the Divine Inheritance related to their Bloodline, as the rumors say."

The Goddess's voice was calm and unruffled, giving people a strong sense of conviction.

Hearing this, Mu Qianjun opened his mouth, but had nothing to say, only nodding slightly in agreement.

Only Du Xingchen understood.

This woman was completely someone who would give the protagonist experience, treasures, and even harm her own family's Divine Hall for this purpose!

A sense of crisis began to sprout in Du Xingchen's heart.

One could only say that this woman's arrival directly raised the difficulty level.

As for her.

Du Xingchen was very confident that once she truly met the protagonist group.

It wouldn't take long before she would become very close to Moyun.

She might even directly reveal that he, Du Xingchen, had actually defected to the Divine Hall, selling him out directly!

This kind of operation wasn't impossible; as long as Moyun and the Goddess became close, it was bound to happen!

If Moyun and Ning Bing became very close as a couple, Du Xingchen could remain uninvolved, as it truly had nothing to do with him.

But if this woman wanted to get together with Moyun, she'd have to ask him first!

After talking with the two of them again for a short while in the side hall, Du Xingchen left the Divine Hall branch in Shield City.

...

Returning to the academy.

Du Xingchen locked his door tightly, and under the candlelight in the room, took out the storage bracelet he had obtained tonight.

Just a single storage bracelet was worth thousands of god temple coins on the market.

After all, to create this item, one also needed to integrate the Soul Card of a rare space-type exotic beast into it. The difficulty of the operation combined with the rarity of space-type exotic beasts led to the high price of storage-type items.

This also made Du Xingchen look forward to seeing what good things were inside.

After opening the storage bracelet, Du Xingchen could see that there were three categories of items placed separately inside.

The first category.

Was two hundred pills.

Among them, one hundred healing pills and one hundred Soul Power recovery pills.

This type of pill was still relatively common on the market.

The price was also not expensive.

Around 100 god temple coins.

However... 100 god temple coins was the price per pill!

These two hundred pills combined had a total value of up to 20,000 god temple coins!

It could be called a lavish expenditure!

With a sigh of admiration, Du Xingchen turned to look at another category of items in the storage bracelet.

This was a set of heavy, dark red armor, as well as a broad, heavy sword and a thick shield.

It was just a set of equipment used for combat.

If his guess was correct.

This set of equipment should be weapons made from the hides, fur, and bones of exotic beasts!

Exotic beasts were valuable not only for their Soul Cards but also for their corpses!

As the thought crossed his mind, Du Xingchen felt his hand sink.

The heavy sword from the storage bracelet appeared in his hand!

The broad heavy sword, when held, didn't feel cold like metal, but warm and smooth like jade.

Feeling the dense beastly might still emanating from the heavy sword, Du Xingchen understood that this heavy sword was definitely made from the bones of an exotic Beast King that was at least twenty thousand years old!

Even the set of armor and the shield in the storage bracelet were of the same specification and quality!

Equipment crafted from exotic beasts of this caliber was far beyond what ordinary metal could compare to!

For Du Xingchen, these were also relatively practical items.

Finally, he looked at the ultimate third category of items.

After seeing these items clearly, his breath hitched, and joy welled up in his heart.

Du Xingchen understood that these were the truly good things!

Card equipment, a full five cards!

And every single one was black!

It seemed that for this trip to the Outer Domain, there was no need to worry too much about safety.
