It seems that she has one more mission in coming to the Free State.

Not only do you have to qualify as a mercenary, you also have to find the artifact and overcome all difficulties to win it over.

…

Free State, Xiazhou.

Located on the most prosperous street in the city center, stands the most luxurious building in the Free State.

The whole building is fifty stories high.

It is currently the highest floor in the other world.

This building is also the power center of the Free State - Freedom Building.

At the same time, the Freedom Building is also the headquarters of the Supernatural Bureau.

The first thirty floors of the Freedom Building are a free and open area where mercenaries can enter and exit freely.

The last twenty floors are forbidden areas and only relevant personnel can enter.

On the top floor of the Liberty Building, it was empty, solid, and deserted.

But the security facilities on this floor are the strictest in the entire alien world.

Not even a fly could get in.

At this time, alarms rang out from the top floor, which had been closed all year round, scaring all the senior staff in the Liberty Building to run to the top floor.

"Why did the Donghuang Bell, which had been silent for hundreds of years, suddenly wake up?"

"Maybe I was called by my own kind."

"Are you saying that someone brought the artifact into the Free Continent?"

"Very likely."

After passing through many checkpoints, several people rushed to the top floor.

On the empty top floor stands a broken clock that looks simple and majestic.

Although this bell is broken, it gives people a sense of destruction, as if it can completely swallow up this alien world in the next moment.

This is the Donghuang Bell, the gate to heaven that is powerful enough to destroy the world and devour all the heavens, as recorded in the ancient inscriptions on the wall in the grottoes that remain from the Age of Gods.

Even though the Donghuang Bell was already badly damaged during the ancient war between gods and demons, the Supernatural Power Bureau still felt uneasy and locked five large thick chains on the Donghuang Bell.

And runes were drawn all over the chain to prevent Donghuang Zhong from escaping.

At this time, the Donghuang Bell sensed the existence of the artifact and was emitting a faint light, as if sending out some kind of distress signal.

As the Donghuang Bell fluctuated, the runes on the iron chain also emitted blood-red lines.

It is this red line that blocks the signal strength of the Donghuang Bell.

"Activate the barrier and suppress the Donghuang Bell for me."

"yes."

Five minutes later, the Donghuang Bell returned to normal.

"Go check everyone who has recently entered the Free State. Make sure you find the whereabouts of the artifact."

"Director, this might be a little difficult..."

"Um?"

"Today is the final day of the mercenary selection. Many people from other places have come to participate in the finals, and there are also many nobles who came to watch the competition, so..."

"Then we should start investigating those mercenaries."

"yes!"

"Seal off all entrances to the Free State. Until the artifact is found, only entry is allowed, no exit is allowed."

"Commissioner, I'm afraid this isn't a good idea, is it?"

"Are you questioning me?"

"I dare not, I dare not... I will do it right now."

On the top floor, peace returned again.

…

The next day.

As soon as the sky was getting light, the charge horn sounded in the King's Hell, like a signal for the start of a war, making people's blood boil.

Everyone followed the instructions and came to the competition venue.

After a day and night of travel, all the contestants arrived at the King's Hell.

As always.

The day before the finals, all we did was discuss the rules and procedures of the competition, as well as the rewards that the winners would receive.

Gong Yu was already familiar with this information.

She sat leisurely, her eyes moving around the field, and soon saw Mu Nian's figure not far away.
