It was night.
The evening breeze blew with a rustling sound, occasionally stirring the trees near the training grounds.
In this atmosphere, Da Xiong and Ouyang Feng arrived at the agreed-upon old spot, silent as ghosts.
As soon as they stopped, they saw a figure emerging from the darkness not far away.
Who else could it be but Zhou Yu!
"Divine Doctor Zhou, I have good news!" Da Xiong said excitedly as soon as they met.
Zhou Yu waved his hand and asked in a low voice, "I have news too, you go first."
Da Xiong immediately recounted Wang Fulai's invitation to them that day.
"Divine Doctor Zhou, I think they can't wait any longer and are about to make their move," Da Xiong said, his eyes shining.
Otherwise, if it were merely a martial arts master selecting students, why would Wang Fulai be more anxious than the two of them?
Zhou Yu nodded, agreeing with Da Xiong's guess.
He then shared his own situation.
Wang Fulai wasn't just targeting Da Xiong and Ouyang Feng.
His approach to Zhou Yu was similar.
"Wang told me to go to the organization's internal mission hall tomorrow to pick up a mission."
"He also said that before picking up the mission, for the sake of secrecy, some trackers must be implanted. I suspect it's similar to your situation, sending us to the laboratory."
Zhou Yu said calmly.
Da Xiong and Ouyang Feng exchanged glances, seeing contempt in each other's eyes!
It seemed Wang Fulai intended to catch them all in one go.
Zhou Yu couldn't help but think that he had indeed been pestering Wang Fulai about missions recently.
It seemed Wang Fulai's impatience was the reason!
However…
Until the very end, it was still uncertain who was the hunter and who was the prey!
Zhou Yu immediately signaled for the two to lower their heads, then whispered his plan: "You two will play along tomorrow morning, agree to Wang Fulai's terms, and then, when you get to the laboratory, assess the situation and press the distress device."
"Originally, I thought this mission would take a long time, but now that Wang Fulai is impatient, it should be over soon!"
Tonight, Zhou Yu would contact Lin Weidong and have the Dragon Group prepare.
Ready to strike at any moment and capture them all!
Da Xiong nodded solemnly.
Their main objective was not just to dismantle this den of the Shadow organization.
It was to apprehend those who knew about it.
Only then could they obtain the complete list of the Shadow organization.
Therefore, they absolutely could not press the distress signal until the last moment tomorrow!
After the three of them conferred for a while, they gradually departed.
Perhaps it was because they knew the mission would end tomorrow.
Da Xiong seemed somewhat excited.
He tossed and turned in bed all night, unable to sleep.
Ouyang Feng was the same.
They couldn't help it; their strength was too weak, yet they were following Zhou Yu deep into the Shadow organization's lair.
With wolves in front and tigers behind, a slight misstep could mean they would never see the light of day again.
Even though they had only been at the Shadow organization's lair for a week.
The psychological pressure they endured was immense!
As the sun rose and its rays filled the room.
*Thump!*
Da Xiong sat up in bed with a flip of his body.
Ouyang Feng was much the same.
Since there were others outside, they did not speak to each other, communicating only through their eyes.
A moment later, after washing up, they went downstairs for training as usual.
While they were training.
As expected, Wang Fulai arrived.
As soon as they met, Wang Fulai eagerly asked, "How was your discussion last night?"
"Don't say I didn't warn you, today is the deadline. If the martial arts master has already recruited enough students, you'll miss your chance!"
These words were Wang Fulai's usual carrot-and-stick tactic.
Although Da Xiong had already decided to agree.
He felt an inexplicable revulsion upon hearing Wang Fulai's words!
So Da Xiong remained silent.
However, Ouyang Feng next to him immediately stepped forward and said, "We discussed it last night and decided to go!"
"The instructor said that this martial arts master is very generous. Perhaps we can even get some spiritual artifacts…"
After saying this, Ouyang Feng put on an expression of greed.
Wang Fulai inwardly sneered, but outwardly, he smiled and agreed with Ouyang Feng.
"Of course, that's what you call being wise and knowing the times!"
"This martial arts master is indeed generous. Your fortune will depend on your opportunities then!"
Spiritual artifacts?
What a daydream!
Wang Fulai thought Da Xiong and the other were pure dreamers.
How rare were spiritual artifacts?
Let alone merely recruiting a student.
Even accepting a disciple wouldn't warrant such a gift!
At this moment, Wang Fulai was unaware.
Da Xiong had already obtained a spiritual artifact after completing a mission for the Dragon Group…
It had to be said, some people, being stingy themselves, assumed everyone else was poor!
After the agreement was made, Wang Fulai immediately told Da Xiong and the other to get ready and accompany him to meet the so-called martial arts master.
Da Xiong was naturally willing.
He hadn't slept all night waiting for this moment!
So Da Xiong prepared very quickly.
They were ready to depart immediately.
Wang Fulai was secretly surprised but still led the two towards the large gate of the training grounds.
As they walked, he introduced:
"The training grounds and camp in front are where the new学员 train. Behind them are areas for those with higher strength."
"When we go inside later, don't look around, and speak less."
"This master dislikes talkative people."
Hearing Wang Fulai's words, Da Xiong and the other quickly said they understood.
Ouyang Feng even put on a grateful expression: "Thank you for the reminder, Brother Wang. If we succeed this time, we will present you with a generous gift!"
Wang Fulai gave a dry laugh and pushed open the steel gate.
Only then did they see.
Behind the training grounds was a much vaster complex of buildings!
And there were very many people inside.
Many people in white coats were moving about in the center of the buildings.
They should all be experimental personnel of the Shadow organization!
Da Xiong couldn't help but observe a few more things upon seeing this.
Unexpectedly, Wang Fulai noticed immediately.
Wang Fulai said with slight dissatisfaction, "Don't look around, we're almost there."
Da Xiong could only lower his head.
However, his thumb continuously rubbed the distress device at his waist.
The two were led into a laboratory made of bulletproof glass.
Da Xiong looked around and deliberately asked, "Brother Wang, where is the martial arts master you mentioned?"
"Oh, he's handling something over there. You wait here for a moment," Wang Fulai said very casually, pouring the two a cup of tea.
Then he excused himself, saying he had something to attend to, and left.
Da Xiong and Ouyang Feng exchanged a look, neither of them touching the tea on the table.
It didn't take a genius to realize that the tea must have something wrong with it!
If they drank it, they might not even have the strength to press the distress device!
