The four exchanged glances, and finally, Wu Yin spoke, "We hope you can help us find another person, someone with strength similar to yours, or even stronger."
Wu Di thought for a moment and agreed.
"Alright, it's getting late, we won't disturb you any longer."
After discussing the matter, the four left the dormitory quickly.
As the electronic door closed, Liu Tianzhi could no longer hold back his words, "Brother Wu, there's no reason for Liu Tixing to refuse this, right? Why do I say that?"
Yes, the desire to go to the main base was something Liu Tixing cared about even more than the two of them. After all, he had already set foot there once. Therefore, it was impossible for him to refuse such a mission!
Wu Di shook his head, "I know he won't refuse, but I want to see more now."
Liu Tianzhi's reaction was quick, and he instantly realized something, blurting out, "Brother Wu, you mean you want to choose between Li Zhonglou and Liu Tixing?"
Wu Di nodded, "Yes, we already have plans for a partial alliance. What if he can really overcome this crisis? Don't you think this mission is the best sincerity?"
Smiling slightly, Wu Di hadn't expected that even fate seemed to be helping him.
The mission mentioned by the four of Fan Li, they knew it would definitely involve risks. In this world, there were no benefits that fell from the sky for no reason.
It could also be a huge trap, not an opportunity!
However, compared to the reward after success, neither Wu Di nor Liu Tianzhi felt that this risk was anything significant!
Because the method that Li Zhonglou had spent a hundred time points to discover, Wu Yin had casually revealed.
Well, the person who knew about it would probably feel a heartache as if his liver was hurting.
The two of them already knew that if they could successfully complete the mission, they could go to the main base with them. So, what could be more tempting than that?
"But, how do we know how long Liu Tixing will take, or if he will really make a move as we expect?"
Wu Di grinned, "It's simple, let's go take a look now and find out."
Indeed, when the two arrived at Liu Tixing's dormitory, no one was there.
Although the dormitory was the safest place in the sub-base, it was not necessarily the best or most private place.
On the contrary, with so many electronic products inside, it was hard to say whether there was anything that could eavesdrop or monitor.
They had all been involved in the martial world, so they naturally treated such matters with caution. Therefore, Wu Di understood very well that if Liu Tixing intended to make a move, he would absolutely not arrange anything in the dormitory!
Liu Tianzhi was still a bit unconvinced, "Perhaps he went out for a walk?"
Wu Di rolled his eyes at him and retorted, "If you were given such a dormitory, would you choose to stay inside or come out?"
Alright, he would stay inside.
Liu Tianzhi sighed, "It seems we won't have to wait too long."
At the same time, at the public phone booth of the sub-base, Liu Tixing had already successfully conveyed his intentions using a coded language.
What Li Zhonglou didn't know was that the group of mysterious experts he encountered in Wutao Mountain previously all belonged to an international underground organization called Heidi.
This underground organization specialized in taking on shady business, from murder and arson to illegal transactions. As long as the employer could afford it, they dared to take it on!
In a dark and damp wooden house, Old Cat, the only one who had escaped at the time, stared at the computer in front of him, his eyes filled with ferocity.
"Li Zhonglou! It's you, it's really you! I will definitely avenge my brothers!"
Bang!
A cup in front of Old Cat suddenly exploded, and the room was filled with the aura of cultivation power, fluctuating high and low like unstable waves.
On the other side, in a luxurious villa, within a room as opulent as a five-star hotel, a man lay on the bed holding a computer, his upper body bare. Below him, a figure was trembling slightly.
"Someone actually dares to place an order in China? Aren't they afraid of being investigated? But this reward is too ordinary. Who would accept it?"
Returning to his dormitory, Liu Tixing, out of unease, secretly logged into an alt account on his phone, where a dedicated butler worked for him.
The reason he hadn't used him initially was that he wanted to spread the risk. The task orders were not processed through this alt account. If anything really happened, he could explain that he had only seen it by chance, not that he was the one who placed the order.
However, after the butler's investigation, half an hour had passed since the task was posted, and not a single order had been accepted.
Liu Tixing, lying on the bed, sat up with a worried expression.
"I knew the reward wasn't enough, but I've already taken out everything I could."
Originally, he thought that as long as one person accepted the order, it would be fine. He was confident in dealing with Li Zhonglou and only needed a good opportunity to shift the blame.
However, while he was lost in thought, the butler suddenly sent a message.
Accepted!
Liu Tixing's face lit up with joy, but before he could inquire further, another message arrived.
Many people accepted! The number is still rising! m..oΓg
Liu Tixing's expression froze.
The most prominent feature of the Heidi organization was its black network, where all tasks were ordered through this international free network.
Liu Tixing was the same, so he knew the rules of the black network. Most of the tasks there were not one-on-one, but one-to-many.
This meant that when a task appeared, it didn't disappear after someone accepted it. Instead, everyone who saw it could accept it. However, after accepting, they had to provide proof of completion to receive the full reward.
If multiple people completed it, the reward would be split equally among them.
Of course,追加奖励 (additional rewards) could also be set.
However, generally, no one would set additional rewards, as this would allow people to exploit loopholes and flock to the task in large numbers to achieve task completion.
So, under normal circumstances, too many people wouldn't be targeting the same task simultaneously.
Unless the reward was too generous.
But, I don't know if the reward I set is generous or not?
Liu Tixing was a bit bewildered. Logically, his task shouldn't have attracted more than three people to accept it. No, even one acceptance would have been lucky!
But now, the butler was telling him that the number of people accepting the task had exceeded double digits!
And it was still rising!
"This is impossible. Could it be that he offended too many people?"
As soon as this thought crossed his mind, he dismissed it.
Although he knew that Li Zhonglou had offended many people in Shangjing, possibly even in the hundreds, this was in Shangjing. The black network was an international free website, populated mostly by foreigners and foreign powers.
"Could it be, the issue of the reward?"
Liu Tixing suddenly remembered another rule of the black network.
When a task appeared, if the task poster had not set any specific restrictions, others could add to the reward.
This was an additional reward, not a bonus!
