Liu Xin immediately made up his mind, put on an understanding expression, deliberately slowed his tone, and spoke slowly with a hint of persuasion:

“I understand, Li Yu. This matter does indeed require careful consideration.”

"However, as long as you agree to join Thunder Bureau, you will immediately become our bureau's one-of-a-kind weapons consultant."

"This position was tailor-made for you; you won't find another one like it in the entire Thunder Bureau."

“Our Thunder Bureau has always valued talent. Once you become an advisor, all resources will be provided to you as if you were a top advisor.”

Liu Xin seemed to remember Li Yu's status as a regimental commander, his eyes lit up, and he added deliberately:

"By then, you can immediately deploy any of the Thunder Bureau's most advanced weapons or experimental high-end equipment to your team for testing."

"This will greatly help improve your team's combat effectiveness."

No sooner had the words left her mouth than Du Xiayue, who was not far away, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:

"What?! Become a consultant directly?! That's way too much!"

The two young men beside him also stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with shock, as they looked at Li Yu and exclaimed:

"Truly worthy of being called a hero of Zhongzhou! He actually became an advisor to the Thunder Bureau directly."

"My goodness! A weapons advisor? That's amazing!"

You should know that they went through countless hardships to get into the Thunder Bureau.

I pulled every string I could to finally get an internship, and now I have to work my way up from the bottom through sheer hard work.

Finally, after being recommended by consultants and undergoing rigorous review, and standing out in the intense interview process, I finally became one of the ordinary members of Thunder Bureau.

Liu Xin was secretly delighted, and even wanted to give Du Xiayue and the other two a thumbs up. This exaggerated reaction was just too timely.

Hearing the whispers of the three people behind her, Li Yu understood that this advisor position was not easy to obtain, and it seemed to be quite valuable.

After thinking it over, he really didn't have a particularly good reason to refuse...

However, Li Yu couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking how eloquent Liu Xin really was.

For every sentence you say, the other person can say ten, and they can say so many in one go.

Regardless of whether Liu Xin's words were logical or not, his eloquence alone was rarer than some ordinary superpowers.

In fact, when Liu Xin mentioned that it would avoid a lot of trouble, Li Yu's mind had already tipped towards joining the Thunder Bureau.

Seeing that Liu Xin was about to continue persuading her, Li Yu didn't want to waste any more time and immediately answered first:

"Okay, I agree to join Thunder Bureau."

Upon seeing Li Yu nod, Liu Xin was immediately overjoyed:

"Very good!"

He couldn't help but slam his fist into his palm, and even his already exhausted and weak body seemed to feel much better as a result.

Having successfully persuaded Li Yu with just an advisory position, Liu Xin had finally completed the Thunder Bureau's mission.

Remembering the Thunder Bureau's Sky Project, which truly needed Li Yu, and knowing that time was of the essence, Liu Xin hurriedly called Sun Chengyu over and gave him a series of detailed instructions.

Given his current physical condition, he certainly cannot go in person; the only option is to send Sun Chengyu to take Li Yu there.

After Liu Xin had settled all the necessary precautions for Sun Chengyu, he turned to Li Yu and said expectantly:

"Li Yu, time is of the essence. The Thunder Bureau's pulse cannons have been deployed and are now waiting for you. I will have Sun Chengyu take you there immediately."

"Don't worry about your team. I'm going to Water City now, and I can also recuperate while I'm there. See you in Water City."

Li Yu knew perfectly well that the pulse cannon was probably the real reason Thunder Bureau had invited him.

As for the pursuit mission in the Giant Stone Forest, it was probably added by Liu Xin on his own initiative, in an attempt to test his own strength.

However, since things had come to this point, Li Yu felt there was no need to say anything more.

Moreover, he was also very curious about the Thunder Bureau and their newly developed weapons, and wanted to learn more about them.

Liu Xin seemed more anxious than anyone else, repeatedly instructing Sun Chengyu:

"Sun Chengyu, you absolutely must bring Li Yu here, understand? There can be absolutely no mistakes!"

“Yes,” Sun Chengyu replied, though he couldn’t help but grumble inwardly.

If Liu Xin hadn't taken it upon himself to test Li Yu, he might have already taken Li Yu to the pulse cannon and persuaded her to join the Thunder Bureau, without going through all this trouble.

"Advisor Li Yu, let's set off now. Please follow me." Sun Chengyu immediately changed his form of address, spread his wings and rose into the air, ready to lead the way for Li Yu.

Li Yu nodded slightly. He always felt that the two of them were putting on a show for him, and they were quite in sync.

Thinking about performing a double act, Li Yu suddenly became interested and an idea popped into her head.

Li Yu reached behind her and slapped Xiao Hei's buttocks hard.

"Smack!"

Startled by the sudden slap, Xiao Hei immediately sat down on the ground, letting out a dissatisfied hiss, refusing to move.

Liu Xin and Sun Chengyu, who were excitedly watching from the side, were completely dumbfounded upon seeing this, never expecting Li Yu to pull such a stunt.

Li Yu then feigned surprise and deliberately raised her voice to speak to Xiao Hei:

"Oh dear, are you tired after running around all day? I forgot to feed you."

Li Yu tentatively searched his body, but found nothing. Somewhat disappointed, he continued:

"Unfortunately, my black horse only eats beast cores. I left in a hurry and didn't bring many beast cores with me. What am I going to do..."

Li Yu paused deliberately at this point, secretly observing Liu Xin and Sun Chengyu's reactions.

Liu Xin and Sun Chengyu were immediately speechless. Li Yu's acting was so bad that it was worse than that of a three-year-old. How could they not see what Li Yu meant?

Even Du Xiayue and the others behind couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle, their shoulders shaking, clearly amused by Li Yu and Heima's sudden actions.

When Liu Xin went out on a mission, he never thought he would need crystal cores.

Left with no other choice, he had to call Sun Chengyu down first, but the three he managed to gather were clearly not enough.

He then called Du Xiayue and the others over and removed a few crystal cores from their bodies that were used for decoration and to power the device, which immediately stopped Du Xiayue and the others from laughing.

With the help of Liu Xin and the others, they finally managed to gather ten beast cores before handing them to Li Yu.

“I didn’t bring many crystal cores with me on the mission. You can use these for now. The Thunder Bureau will provide you with more if needed later.”

Li Yu feigned excitement and accepted the crystal core with satisfaction:

"Great, this is a lifesaver!"
