Chapter 117 The Pressure from the Director of the General Administration
The entire venue fell into an eerie silence.
Li Muhan took a rough look at the people present. Almost all of them could be said to be secretive. They all wore coats and hooded masks.
It was as if he was afraid of being recognized.
If you don’t know, you might think this is some kind of cult gathering place.
In contrast, their Tianhai City Special Management Bureau seemed much more naive, and was exposed in front of everyone in such a swagger.
"Shouldn't we also get a team uniform?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little subtle, Li Muhan smiled and said to the people around him.
As a result, no one said a word, especially Xia Yue and Chi Yuan. They seemed to be very familiar with the current situation as they had participated before.
Because of this, we also have a better understanding of what will happen next.
"Not bad, little friend, I think the team uniform is better too!"
In the end, it was Sun Yan who agreed with Li Muhan's words.
"It's a pity that I'm the only one from Fulin City, otherwise I would have to dress up and carry a big banner!"
Li Muhan gave a bitter smile. He said that the purpose of changing the team uniforms was to keep a low profile, but Sun Yan turned out to be the opposite and directly made a big fuss.
At this moment, the lights in the venue suddenly dimmed, and then a hunchbacked old man appeared on the podium in the middle.
He was holding the microphone and leaning on a cane. Li Muhan was worried that he would die in the next second.
"Everyone, colleagues from the Special Management Bureau, thank you all for your support. The China Special Management Bureau Exchange Conference has always adhered to the principles of fairness, justice, and openness, and we want every participant in the Special Management Bureau to show their style and level..."
Next, everyone listened to the old man's pre-match speech, which was like a sports meeting and lasted for almost half an hour.
Li Muhan almost couldn't help yawning, and finally the old man introduced himself.
"Sorry, it seems like there are some new faces, ahem... I'm Lu Shan, the director of the Huaxia Special Management Bureau. You can also call me Uncle Lu... ahem."
The old man seemed to have talked too much and started coughing constantly. Li Muhan was a little skeptical that this was really the director of the General Administration. It felt like anyone could knock him down.
"Hey, my friend, don't look down on this old man Lu."
As if he could see what Li Muhan was thinking, Sun Yan leaned over and whispered in his ear.
"Think about it, this Special Management Bureau is responsible for supervising all kinds of aliens from all over the country. Even gods and demons are in their files. How can this old man Lu be the director of the bureau? Do you think he can be an ordinary person?"
Li Muhan thought it made sense and nodded.
Then he suddenly saw Lu Shan on the stage with his slightly narrowed eyes seeming to be looking at him.
There was an endless deterrent power in that look, and Li Muhan was finally convinced. In the Special Management Bureau, one should never judge a person by his appearance.
"Then... ahem, next, let's allow the organizer of this exchange competition, Director of the Beiyuan City Special Management Bureau, Lei Jian, to introduce the rules of this conference to everyone."
After the old man finished speaking, he took the lead in clapping, but his movements were very difficult, and those who were serious and expressionless at the scene also started clapping in unison.
It seemed that they all respected, or even feared, the director of the General Administration and did not dare to disobey him at all.
Even Xia Yue started to applaud.
Soon, the old man sat down aside with his cane, and the person who stood up next was Lei Jian, the director of the Beiyuan City Special Management Bureau who had previously greeted Li Muhan and others at the airport.
"Everyone! Welcome to Beiyuan City! I am the Director of the Beiyuan City Special Management Bureau, and also the Commander-in-Chief of the Beiyuan Military Region!"
His voice was like thunder. Although he was not holding a cigar, his charred and rotten teeth still made Li Muhan feel a little uncomfortable.
"As I'm sure you've all noticed, this conference is a little different from previous ones. We've chosen the entire Beiyuan City as the venue, which is unprecedented! Of course, don't worry about destroying the city. Our Beiyuan City Special Management Bureau has already isolated the entire city, so you can all show your skills here to your heart's content!"
I didn't expect that what Sun Yan said was true.
Li Muhan was slightly surprised.
After hearing this, several groups of people became obviously excited.
After all, they are aliens, and it is very painful to live by suppressing their nature. Now they can fight and destroy without restraint, which is such a refreshing thing.
Perhaps the Special Management Bureau holds this kind of conference every five years for a reason, to help these saboteurs vent their energy and prevent them from causing trouble.
"Now, let me explain the rules of this conference!"
Everyone listened attentively. After all, rules were very important. The rules of each conference were different. Sometimes the only hope for a weak team to turn the tables was to exploit the rules.
"The rules this time are..."
Lei Jian took a deep breath and then shouted suddenly.
“There are no rules!! In this isolated fake city!! You can fight to your heart’s content! Fight to the death!!! Hahahahahahaha!!!”
The venue was in an uproar. Several groups of people stood up and roared from their mouths. It was obvious that the voice was not that of ordinary humans.
Li Muhan noticed that Chi Yuan and Xia Yue looked a little ugly.
"What's wrong? Are we weak?"
He asked Xia Yue quietly.
"It's not a question of being weak or not. If there really were no rules... then our situation could be very dangerous."
Li Muhan still didn't understand what Xia Yue said. He just thought that the power of other special management bureaus was too strong. It didn't matter. The important thing was to participate. At worst, he could just take a team award and report back.
At this moment, the old director Lu Shan hit Lei Jian on the head with his crutch.
"You idiot! Get out of my way!"
Lei Jian quickly supported Lu Shan to prevent him from falling.
Director Lu walked up to the stage again, sighed and spoke to everyone.
"It's not completely without rules. Let me explain. This competition will last for a month. Starting at 12 o'clock tonight, the special management bureau teams can form alliances at will and can also mobilize all their forces, but there is one limit."
Lu Shan raised a finger and glanced at everyone present and said.
"From sunrise to 11:00 AM, fighting is prohibited. Everyone can rest during this time. Once 11:00 PM passes, fighting resumes. This is the same every day. If anyone continues fighting after sunrise, they will be warned the first time, and will be declared the loser the second time. Everyone, the rules are simple. Do you understand?"
There was not much hesitation among the crowd. After being stared at by the old director, those who were excited just now all sat down obediently.
"clear."
There were scattered responses from the venue.
"It seems that everyone hasn't eaten yet? Let me ask again."
The old man tapped the ground lightly with his cane, and a terrifying force began to slowly spread outward. Everyone affected by this force was trembling in their hearts.
Li Muhan could even hear Baal and Hypnos in his soul being shocked at the same time.
"Get it, everyone?"
"clear!!"
This time the answers were quite consistent, and cold sweat broke out on almost everyone's forehead.
But what puzzled Li Muhan was that Sun Yan beside him did not react at all. Although he shouted very loudly, there was still a faint smile on his face.
