The Heavens: A Qing, the Yue Girl at the beginning

July 2004, 7, Runde Building, 4th floor, Tower A.

In the evening, Tang Wei, the boss of Millennium Labor Export Company, known as "San Shao", was playing "Red Alert 2" while listening to the continuous sound of rain outside the window and waiting for the call from his nagging father urging him to go home for dinner. .

On the surface, Tang Wei is a labor exporter. His business is very large. He bought the entire 21st floor of Tower A, a twin building in Runde Building. He drives a majestic Escalade SUV and has eight or nine people under his command. With ten younger brothers, Tang Wei actually thinks that he is a blue-collar worker.

He is a hunter.

He knew that there were many people like him around the world who accepted tasks on a website called "Hunter Market" and hunted for high bonuses. Clients from all over the world upload tasks and recruit capable hunters.

Registered members who are confident that they can take on the task can reply to the email on the site and attach their resume. This process is called "posting", and the client chooses among the hunters who posted.

Tang Wei knew that most of these tasks were a bit strange and confusing. It was common to crawl in and out of ancient tombs, but it was hard work and no money. Tang Wei has some talent and is suitable for this line of work. Tang Wei's company is a hunting company, and the younger brothers all have a few skills. Every time a task is done, the younger brother and the company are divided in half.

This job is thrilling and makes money. The only problem is that Tang Wei doesn't know whether he is a gangster or a gangster. He has no confidence in the "Hunter Market" website that made him rich.

No one can tell what the website is, there is no moderator, only Nido, an administrator who rarely appears. When you violate the rules, you will only receive a warning email from this person.

Tang Wei's ID is "3rd_young_master", the third master.

According to the weather forecast, the heavy rain that started yesterday afternoon will continue until tomorrow. When the typhoon passes, the weather will become clear again.

For people in this coastal city, typhoons are a common occurrence, so no one panics, but happily enjoys an unexpected three-day vacation at home.

Unable to go out during the typhoon, the whole family happily sat in front of the TV and watched variety shows. The parents just took the opportunity to make up for the regret of not having time to spend with their children.

The commercial area on the first to fifth floors of Runde Building has also entered a state of suspension of business. There is deep water around the building and almost no one comes and goes.

But as a hunter and the owner of a security company, Tang Wei cannot take vacations casually like others. In addition to providing security services for the building, which requires comprehensive inspections, he also has to care about the tasks entrusted by Hunter Online to see if there are any If there is nothing suitable, you can post and make a fortune.

"It would be nice if making money was as easy as playing games." After clicking the mouse, dozens of tanks pushed a simple enemy flat. Tang Wei took a sip of "Yamazaki" whiskey and said casually.

Over the years, he has led his younger brothers to dig out dozens of ancestral graves that were offered rewards by hunters. They have encountered many evil things. Although he has indeed made a lot of money, when dealing with the monsters that emerge from the graves, it also counts. Walking on the tightrope, if you are not careful, you will lose both your life and money.

Therefore, carefully weighing your own strength, choosing tasks with just the right difficulty, and grasping the direction of the "Three Young Masters" team are the top priorities for hunters to survive and make money.

It is also a real-time strategy game, but Tang Wei only plays Red Alert and does not play StarCraft, which sounds difficult.

When he tried to play a few games of the latter, he met a guy named "Old Tang" who seemed to have the same surname, and was instantly killed on the spot. So Tang Wei knew very well that this game was too mentally demanding to play, and he Not suitable for spending time by yourself.

Pausing the red alert out of boredom, Tang Wei switched screens, moved the mouse slightly, and logged into the website "Hunter Market".

He entered the ID and password of "3rd_young_master", hit the Enter key, and the page refreshed from top to bottom. The dark background, dark green lines, and crimson fonts were like a door to another world opening in front of him. .

"The latest mission is to find a beautiful girl with a foreign accent in our city? There is no requirement to deal with the target. All you need to do is get close to the target and collect information about her... It seems like it shouldn't be a difficult task."

The client attached a low-definition photo of a sixteen- or seventeen-year-old girl dressed in ancient costume. From a distance, she looked like a harmless little animal, the kind with big eyes that could turn her around. A small thing.

After browsing to the end of the post, Tang Wei suddenly widened his eyes: "Reward amount, 1000 million US dollars?!"

Due to such a high reward, the large number of replies quickly pushed this task to the top of the list. Many senior hunters expressed concern about this and speculated on the relationship between the client and the target.

……

Just when Tang Wei, the most famous local hunter, was reviewing the details of the mission to see why this commission was worth tens of millions, almost no one knew that the target girl mentioned in the post had already arrived in Runde. Under the building.

In this small coastal town, Tang Wei's company is actually considered a high-ranking company, with a valuation of over 100 million. Although it is far less than the Black Prince Group, the number one local company with a scale of over 10 billion, it is not as good as the second-ranked Black Prince Group. The Su Family Mining Company and the Lu Family's three listed companies are much different, but they should not be underestimated and can be compared with the Zhao Menghua Family's companies.

It was Zhao Qing and others who took down this hunter company that was afraid to call the police because of its involvement in gangs, obtained the first pot of gold, legally engaged in the "security" industry, used the other party's original channels to purchase weapons, and developed a certain amount of force. Strategies set by people.

Runde Building is located on the edge of the business district and can be regarded as the commanding heights in the surrounding area. It has a wide view and is only three or four kilometers away from the suburban viaduct area. On the other side, you can see Shilan Middle School and the old city where Lu Mingfei is located in the distance. It was the qualified outpost in her plan.

The two-hundred-meter-long twin-tower building had only weak light on a typhoon day, casting huge shadows diagonally.

At the entrance of the building, Shi Yiguang glanced at the three followers behind him and opened a huge black umbrella. An ink-colored crystal pillar exuding an icy atmosphere was embedded in the umbrella handle. It has some intricate patterns and is slightly shiny.

She took out a purple chip that seemed to be solidified with burning flames, and gently inserted it into the depression in the middle of the ink crystal. The amethyst melted immediately, and the released flames began to spread to the entire umbrella surface, forming a deep purple arc and a An invisible field that expands rapidly outward.

The moment they came into contact with this expanded field, all the electrical appliances that were still running in the Runde Building within a radius of 100 meters suffered the same fate: short circuit, disconnection, and paralysis.

To describe it more accurately, it was like being attacked by a small electromagnetic pulse weapon. The nearby circuits were immediately interrupted. However, since power outages are normal during typhoons, they will not attract too many people's attention.

This is the unique trick "Flowing Jade Yao" that comes with the Purple Blood Dafa. After Zhao Qing "seals" some of the moves he knows in the crystal, it can be handed over to Shi Yiguang and others to plug and play and release it. The power in it.

After blocking the surveillance probes in a large area and causing the main control room and elevator on the second floor to malfunction, a three-person team began to gradually sweep through each floor of the building, find and bring down the security guards inside, and quickly moved toward the high-rise floors. approaching.

The girl turned the big black umbrella surrounded by purple electricity, threw out the amethyst fragments in the groove, and then inserted a new cyan chip. The cyan crystal melted, and a swirling wind began to appear, lifting the entire umbrella. Let it float in mid-air, like a light hummingbird.

The wind whirlpool gradually accelerated, and the downward thrust became stronger and stronger. Shi Yiguang tightly grasped the dark umbrella handle, his long hair was as curled as clouds, his body was fluttering, covered with a gauze made of rain, towards the Runde Building. The upper floors slowly ascended.

……

In the office on the top floor of Runde Building, Tang Wei put aside the "Yamazaki" whiskey, replaced it with a can of refreshing Coke, drank it all in one gulp, and looked at the lightning that had just struck outside in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

A moment ago, the screen of his computer suddenly went blank and then quickly recovered, which made him feel uncomfortable, as if something was going to happen.

Maybe the commission is dangerous and not easy to accept? A large order of 1000 million U.S. dollars, a difficult task at the "AAA" level, seems to be beyond the reach of a hunter of his level. Employers in the hunter market are generally very calculating and cannot be generous just to give away money.

The reward in this line of work is always proportional to the risk.

Tang Wei didn't want to take a closer look at this website, which was always dark and gave people an eerie feeling, so he switched back to the Red Alert game just now and started a new game.

Perhaps because of his absent-mindedness, he suddenly discovered after loading in that he had forgotten to set up the force division. The system defaulted to every AI being an enemy, which meant that Tang Wei lost three ruthless teammates and had to face seven full A ruthless and powerful enemy.

Maybe a game master like "Old Tang" could do it one against seven, but Tang Wei thought he didn't have this ability. Thinking that it was almost time to go home for dinner, he simply decided to shut down his phone immediately after he was wiped out by the group. Take the VIP elevator downstairs.

At this moment, he shivered violently.

……

The security of Runde Building is very tight. The developer outsourced the security work of the building to this group of hunters, so the entire building belongs to them. They know that the business they do cannot be seen by others, so they use this method to protect themselves.

On the main road on the 21st floor, Ding Ning and Nangong Caishu encountered a large number of enemies. They were security guards with as many as forty or fifty people. When they saw thieves invading their security company, they found that there were thieves on the opposite side. To control the knives, groups of people drew out electric shock batons and surrounded them.

According to the standards of martial arts schools, these specially trained security guards can definitely be regarded as top students, and each one can fight three or five.

Facing the menacing group of strong men, Nangong Caishu looked blank, and her right hand slowly fell on the hilt of the fish-patterned iron sword on her back.

Less than half an hour ago, she and Ding Ning took over the "pioneering" task assigned by Zhao Qing, and then got into a hidden mountain passage. As soon as her consciousness blurred, she appeared in a landscape completely different from Baiyang Cave. In other words, it is a strange world that is incompatible with the Qin Dynasty.

Nangong Caishu could hardly recognize the words here. She could only guess that she had come to an extremely remote place for some reason, and wanted to follow the guidance of another girl here to complete a series of tasks in order to obtain Zhao. Green's reward.

Different from the various difficulties and obstacles in her mind, it seems that the task carried out here is not difficult at present. She only needs to face dozens of soldiers with no training and wearing strange clothes, and subdue all the enemies with zero casualties. .

Glancing at the strange young man next to him who was in charge of communicating and dressed in the local style, Nangong Caishu made a simple gesture, and then used pure straight lines to bring out the afterimages and charge towards the surrounding security guards. Streams of water-like true essence flowed out from her fingertips and poured into the fish-patterned iron sword in her hand.

All the fish scale patterns on this black fish-patterned iron sword began to be filled with dazzling and sticky silver light. It looked as if the inside of the sword had been filled with a large amount of silver water. It is necessary to start from these rune patterns. It's seeping out from inside, but it just can't come out.

The body of the fish-patterned iron sword itself seemed unable to withstand this force, and began to tremble rapidly, shaking out countless silver lights.

Waves of air waves continued to rise in the cool air.

It's just an unusually straight sword, but it feels like there are countless swords.

This is the Liancheng Sword Technique of her father, Nangong Pocheng, the general who guarded Lishi County.

In the recorded stories of the battles between the Qin Army and the Zhao Dynasty, Nangong Pocheng had many experiences of killing several heavy armored chariots with one sword.

This is an extremely strong sword force that is continuously exerted through the control of true energy.

After a sword strike, the broken riot shields and electric batons flew everywhere, knocking over groups of security guards, deeply frightening these strong and powerful men, making them roll and crawl towards the police. Escape to areas covered by walls.

Some people pressed the elevator frantically, trying to escape. Some people were making phone calls and recording their last words. Some people knelt down and begged for mercy, saying, "Auntie, you have come to the door. I really didn't dig your grave. The coffin that time was opened by Lao Wang next door. Every wrongdoer has his head, and every debtor has his own owner!

Nangong Caishu didn't understand at all, but Ding Ning's expression remained unchanged and he was thoughtful in his heart. He quickly caught up with the fastest escaping people and knocked them unconscious with a few blows.

The remaining security guards and a few girls saw that these two young men were not easy to mess with, so they all turned their attention to the other person guarding the corridor.

The other person looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a clear-cut face, a broad forehead, a straight nose, strong eyebrows, and a pair of warm black eyes. He looked like a good student.

He was Chu Zihang, who lost his father last night. It only took half a day to recover, and he even joined the three-person team as a temporary "translator."

"Put down your weapons and lie down on the spot! Stop resisting and surrender immediately!" Marveling at the powerful sword move just now, Chu Zihang spoke coldly to persuade him to surrender. He gently stroked the hilt of "Murasame" with his fingers, imagining in his mind Think about how you can make the same changes.

Although he hasn't figured out much of the content yet, he can tell that the organization he has newly joined seems to be able to systematically train young people into masters with amazing strength, and it does have the power to help him take revenge on the gods.

At present, what Chu Zihang has obtained is a mysterious skill called "Huang Tian Dafa", which is said to be able to control the nine true fires of the sun and kill all enemies with the Sun Sword Gang. It is said that it matches his cultivation talent very well. Entry should be pretty quick.

As for the "Master Sword Murasame" in his hand, after Zhao Qing came yesterday and provided a batch of supplies and equipment, Shi Yiguang naturally returned the sword to him. After all, this is the only relic left by Chu Tianjiao to Chu Zihang ——If you don’t include Black Umbrella and Maybach.

At this moment, Chu Zihang suddenly heard the sound of metal hitting metal. It was a gun being loaded.

A security guard raised a prohibited imitation "Black Star" pistol, and with the cover of his companions, he quietly aimed it at Nangong Caishu, who had shown the best force just now.

It could be seen that her and Ding Ning's behavior and knowledge were similar to those of ancient people. Chu Zihang immediately thought that the two of them might not be aware of the power of modern firearms and might not be able to dodge in time. He quickly opened his mouth and shouted to try to remind.

However, at this moment, Nangong Caishu had a small green sword in his left hand.

A faint blue light swept across, like a vine leaf growing in the air.

The vine leaf fell on the barrel of the "Black Star" pistol, cutting it into two pieces. The security guard holding the gun, his hands covered with blood, screamed and jumped back.

As a practitioner with a military background, she would naturally not ignore any lethal talisman.

……

At the same time, Shi Yiguang grabbed the spinning big umbrella and hovered in the pouring rain more than two hundred meters above the ground, dancing gracefully with the water mist blowing by. She blinked, and the light was reflected in her clear pupils. Out of the whole city.

Seen from such a high place, everything seems so small, making people feel as if they are far away from the world.

Lonely, high.

So she waved the umbrella in her hand, and the dark cyan wind blade easily tore through the strong double-layer reinforced glass on the top layer. Then she slowly closed the umbrella, and her body floated into the office here like a kite, and her feet landed on the ground again. Shoes that were not wet at all stepped on the expensive carpet in the room.

Tang Wei didn't notice the movement around him, because he was immersed in computer games, hurriedly driving his only remaining base vehicle with residual health, avoiding the pursuit of countless tanks and planes, and replenishing health from time to time. Trying to delay until the last moment.

A Bai Hao's hand suddenly appeared and snatched the mouse from Tang Wei's hand, stopping his operation.

"The game is over." Looking at the base occupied by enemy engineers on the screen, Shi Yiguang said calmly: "Your 'Millennium Labor Export Company' has been completely destroyed, and all the younger brothers and sisters have been captured. If you still want to maintain the past, If you want to live a prosperous life, just follow my instructions."

"Who are you? What's going on?" Tang Wei asked in disbelief after hearing the strange voice that seemed to be newly learned. At the same time, he suddenly turned over and looked at the enemy who was supposed to be standing behind. Try your best to keep your eyes open.

His pupils were burning, like the eyes of a lizard or a snake, or like a golden gas lamp.

This is Tang Wei's biggest secret. His ability to be a hunter depends entirely on these eyes. When he concentrates all his energy, his pupils will change color, and all evil things so far will flee in front of these golden pupils.

However, the pressure of this low-blooded golden eye was less than one-tenth of that of the black shadow giant, and it could not have the slightest impact on the girl. On the contrary, it seemed to have some kind of backlash on Tang Wei himself.

"It turns out...it's you!" Thinking of the picture attached to the reward list, his heart was beating fast and his hands and feet felt a little weak. He couldn't help but suspect that something strange had come to the door and poached people. The ancestral graves suffered retribution.

"Do you recognize me?" Shi Yiguang shook Tang Wei, who was trembling wildly. He felt that he would not be able to return to normal for a while, so he picked up the laptop and the person's body and found a VIP card. He opened the elevator door and started going down.

I didn't know what I accidentally bumped into when entering the elevator. The game page was closed and the Hunter Market website was reopened. I saw many new replies about her bounty request, and the popularity instantly surpassed the others.

Hot old posts like "Atlantis underwater adventure, sincerely invite companions", "Large quantities of arms clearance sale, lowest price in history", "Old corpses in the mountain village run rampant, please seek help from a senior mage to suppress it", suddenly became unpopular.

Another window on the side of the website scrolled with a new weather forecast issued by the city’s Meteorological Bureau:

Typhoon No. 0407 "Dandelion", which was originally scheduled to leave tomorrow, suddenly slowed down and its movement path was slightly adjusted. The recent stormy weather may be extended for two days. Citizens, please be prepared...

At the same time, outside the elevator passage, just above the Runde Building, a pure white cloud slowly squeezed out from the gray-black cumulonimbus clouds, its whole body shimmering with crystal color, projecting an undetectable light downward. light.

……

More than an hour later, Eleven time zones and 18,000 kilometers away were at the headquarters of Cassel College in Illinois, USA.

In the early morning, the central control room on the second floor of the library is brightly lit. Manstein stood in front of a giant 3D projection, with a 5-meter-high virtual earth suspended in front of him. As he waved his hand gently, the earth would quickly move to the position he wanted to see. It feels like God is playing with his creation, giving people the pleasure of lashing out and the joy of having power.

If politicians know that there is such an advanced projection system in the world, they will definitely rush to buy it to satisfy their desire to point out the country. If they want to cosplay as Hitler, they can cosplay as Hitler, and if they want to cosplay as Genghis Khan, they can cosplay as Genghis Khan, just like "From Baicao Garden to Sanwei Bookstore" "The gentleman in "Iron Ruyi, commanding suavely, everyone is shocked; Jin Boluo, upside down and dripping, drinking a thousand cups without getting drunk..."

But Manstein didn't enjoy it at all. Manstein wanted to die.

Seven or eight red lights flashed on the surface of the faint blue "Earth" at the same time, and sirens sounded one after another. The entire central control room was filled with the clicking sounds of keyboards being typed at high speed, the hissing sounds of printers working, and the clicking sounds of mechanical cipher machines translating secret messages, which made his head almost explode.

No matter day or night, the atmosphere in this control room is this. Tonight it is Manstein's turn to be the unlucky professor on duty.

As many as seventy experts and interns work here, each facing several terminals at the same time. The secretary of the college, or the super host named "Norma" captures information related to the college from all over the world. In the end, manpower has to analyze and make decisions one by one. The central control room is the think tank of the college.

In fact, usually the professors on duty are in groups of three, and tonight it was his, Guderian's and Executive Department Director Schneider's turn.

However, at this moment, the unreliable Guderian was sleeping soundly on the table, leaving only Manstein and Schneider working with red eyes - until Schneider, who has always been known as the "steel executive" He said he had something to do and left for the time being, leaving all the pressure on him alone.

"There is a new 'A' level mission, related to the hunter website." Just when Manstein couldn't hold on any longer and wanted to wake up his old friend Guderian, Schneider finally rushed back in time with loyalty. He slowly said: "The target is likely to involve the newly resurrected dragon species."
