Chapter 324: Lure the snake out of its hole (Subscribe)
Seeing the task of assassinating himself, Feng Qi was stunned.
About every fifteen days, the weak clan alliance in the domain will send the tasks that have been recently accepted and are ready to be put on the shelves to the Hupo Research Institute for his review.
Among them, the tasks that he does not want to be put on the shelves will be vetoed in advance and prohibited from being put on the shelves.
At this stage, the tasks accepted and executed by the weak clan alliance in the domain of Xingcheng are completely under his control.
He learned this from Lao Mi.
With the intelligence network of the weak clans in the domain, even if there are factors that are unfavorable to him, he can be informed in advance.
Now seeing the task of assassinating himself, Feng Qi is very confused.
It stands to reason that he has been very low-key recently and has not produced any unbelievable cultivation results for the outside world. How can he become the target of assassination?
Which domain's latent forces' cake did I touch?
Thinking about it, the first thing he thought of was the super virtual game.
Recently, the promotion of super virtual games is in full swing. Perhaps the emergence of super virtual games has aroused the vigilance of the latent forces in the domain and regarded him as a dangerous target.
But after thinking carefully, he felt that the probability was very low.
At this stage, those who know his true identity in the Dawn Organization have all been tested by him on multiple timelines and confirmed as reliable forces.
As for other departments under the Dawn Organization, they only know that the Dawn Organization exists.
But he, who is behind the Dawn Organization, is not aware of it.
It is understandable that the Super Virtual Game was exposed and aroused vigilance, and he has been prepared for it, but it is impossible to directly target him anyway.
Since there is a high probability that there will be no problems inside, then where is the problem?
This question made Feng Qi fall into deep thought.
He began to think about his recent itinerary and whether he had exposed himself.
At this time, he suddenly had an idea and thought of the Energy Research Institute.
He recently went to the Energy Research Institute and signed the agreement to build a new energy line with the highest authority of the Tiger Soul Research Institute.
"Is there a problem at this step?"
But thinking about it carefully, Feng Qi felt that this guess was not reliable.
He could understand that the latent forces in the field chose the Tiger Soul Research Institute or even the Scarlet Research Institute.
But he couldn't figure out why they chose the Energy Research Institute. The
authority of the Energy Research Institute is not high in Star City, and it is also under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Council of Star City, and its development is restricted everywhere.
Controlling the Energy Research Institute is a thankless task.
He doesn't think any field force would be stupid enough to do this, and there is no benefit at all.
What's more, the monthly resource consumption of the Energy Research Institute needs to be reported, and it is difficult to deduct resources from it. It is impossible to freely decide the use of resources like Hu Po and Scarlet.
But to be on the safe side, he immediately stood up and sat down in front of the screen.
After waking up the screen, he clicked on the permission database.
After entering Yin Ling's name, he began to filter gender and time.
After a moment, detailed information about Yin Ling appeared on the screen. After
carefully examining the information, Feng Qi found that Yin Ling's information was normal and there was no problem.
According to the information, Yin Ling was born in the West District of Xingcheng. Her parents were originally management staff of the Energy Research Institute. The school she attended was the Lingcai School in the Old City. After graduating with excellent grades, she returned to Xingcheng to join the Energy Research Institute as an intern.
During this period, Yin Ling showed extremely strong abilities in all aspects and was promoted all the way.
Finally, two years ago, after the previous dean retired, the Supreme Council of Xingcheng voted to decide that Yin Ling would serve as the new dean of the Energy Research Institute.
...
With Yin Ling's authority, it is impossible to modify the information in the Xingcheng authority database.
This is enough to show the credibility of this information.
And Yin Ling was born in Xingcheng, not a newcomer who suddenly appeared, so the possibility of being a domain creature is greatly reduced.
But Feng Qi did not completely rule out the possibility.
After all, there are many ways for domain forces to lurk in human society, and methods such as replacing the prince with a cat are too normal.
Mental control, soul parasitism, behind-the-scenes control... In so many timelines, he has seen all kinds of lurking methods.
Based on the content of the authority information alone, it is impossible to determine that the content of the information is completely credible.
But one thing is certain.
Controlling the Energy Research Institute will not bring much benefit.
Yin Ling's growth trajectory is very clear. If she is a domain creature, when she arrived, the old fans and the night shadow tribe had not yet appeared.
Why didn't she choose a research institute with higher authority, but chose the Energy Research Institute, which has one of the lowest authority in Xingcheng.
Isn't it good to control the Tiger Soul and Scarlet Research Institute?
He thinks there may be such a possibility.
This domain force is relatively weak and believes that it cannot control Tiger Soul and Scarlet Research Institute at all, so it has to settle for the next best thing and chooses the Energy Research Institute with the lowest authority.
Although the use of resources of the Energy Research Institute must be reported, it can at least deduct a part of it to subsidize the use of the clan.
This guess may be true, but there is a logical loophole.
The characteristics of weak clans in the domain are lack of resources and weak overall combat power within the clan.
How could they spend resources to kill themselves? This is simply a thankless act.
The energy line that is about to be built recently has nothing to do with the interests of the Energy Research Institute. He is just a signatory. Even if he dies, the construction of the energy line will continue.
After listing various possibilities, Feng Qi ruled out the speculation that there is a problem with the Energy Research Institute.
So, what is the problem?
After thinking for a while, Feng Qi decided to start a fishing operation.
First hang the bait, then lure the snake out of the hole.
Thinking of this, he took out an encrypted mobile phone from his pocket and dialed a number.
After waiting for a while, the call was connected, and a hoarse voice came from the other end of the phone:
"Who?"
"Me!"
Hearing the familiar voice, the tone of the other end of the phone suddenly became warmer:
"Master Narrator, what do you want? Have you checked the recent task list? Do you need to veto some tasks in advance?"
Facing a series of questions, Feng Qi said indifferently:
"There is a task I need to consult you about."
"Go ahead."
"I checked this batch of tasks and found a task to assassinate Feng Qi, a teacher at Xingcheng Academy. I want to know who issued this task?"
After a brief silence on the other end of the phone
, the person who issued the task used an encrypted phone to issue the task. When collecting the deposit, he was wrapped tightly and his appearance and body shape could not be seen at all."
Hearing this answer, Feng Qi was not surprised.
The most important thing for the latent forces in the field is the confidentiality of their identities, and it is completely understandable that they choose not to disclose any information.
"Lord Narrator, do you want to cancel this mission?"
"No, it cannot be canceled. Issue this mission immediately, but accept it directly in your name. Don't give other forces the opportunity to accept it."
"I accept the mission?" The person on the other end of the phone seemed very surprised.
"Lord Narrator, do you mean that I will go out to assassinate Feng Qi, a teacher at Xingcheng Academy?"
Feng Qi: ...
"Of course not. I want you to accept this mission, and then wait two days to directly announce the completion of the mission, and then come out to collect the subsequent rewards. At that time, I will go with you."
Hearing this, the weak clan alliance manager on the other end of the phone obviously understood what Feng Qi meant.
"Lord Narrator, do you want to lure him out?"
"That's right."
"Okay, I'll arrange it for you right away."
After the details of the mission were detailed in the conversation, Feng Qi hung up the phone.
Next, he dialed Mu Qing's phone number and explained the next mission to her.
Since the latent forces in the field that issued the assassination mission were unwilling to show up, he planned to lure them out by fishing.
Lao Mi had also used a similar routine.
At that time, it was unclear which domain power controlled the Hupo Research Institute and how strong it was.
It was only known that the domain power that controlled the Hupo Research Institute had been conducting research on magic projects, and even restricted Lin Ran's freedom for this.
In order to find out the situation.
He once joined Lin Ran to send a list of spiritual materials to the behind-the-scenes forces of Hupo.
Among them was the demand for bloodstone.
The Night Shadow Clan at that time really took the bait and sent members of the clan to trade with Lao Mi who completed the task.
The result was that Lao Mi was given the conditions for successful parasitism and finally successfully penetrated into the Night Shadow Clan.
Relying on that fishing mission as a starting point, Lao Mi finally successfully defeated the Night Shadow Clan and became the new controller of the Hupo Research Institute.
The fishing method he used this time was very similar.
Use the task to lure the snake out of the hole.
To be on the safe side, he decided to bring Mu Qing with him when he officially traded face to face.
At that time, even if there was an emergency, he believed that Mu Qing's strength could easily deal with it.
Next, just wait.
Two days later, Feng Qi, who had been waiting for a reply, received a call from the management of the Domain Weak Clan Alliance.
Informing him that "the mission is completed" and that subsequent transactions can be carried out.
...
Late at night.
The East District of Xingcheng, the central building of the prosperous commercial district.
Feng Qi, wearing a special black mask, stood on the top of the central building, overlooking the brilliant lights below.
The prosperity of the East District of Xingcheng was all in one glance.
Behind him stood Mu Qing, who was also wearing a black mask, and the management staff of the Xingcheng Weak Clan Alliance.
The transaction after the completion of this mission was scheduled on the top of the central building.
Feng Qi's eyes kept scanning below, waiting for the target to appear.
He took out his mobile phone to check the time. It was time for the transaction, but the target never appeared.
Unable to help but frown, Feng Qi asked:
"Black Dragon, has your Weak Race Alliance ever encountered a situation where the mission was completed but the party escaped?"
"Yes, but the probability is very small. After all, many tasks that are inconvenient for big forces to do have to be completed by us. This is a long-term business, and they will not completely cut off contact with us just to escape the bill temporarily."
"You don't even know who the other party is. Can't you just change your identity and continue to get free stuff from you?"
"This situation basically does not exist. Those who issue assassination missions to us are not small forces, and small forces are unlikely to issue assassination missions to waste resources. Big forces don't care about the cost of these resources at all."
"Except for assassination missions, other commissions such as spiritual material collection require face-to-face delivery after completion, which eliminates potential acts of escape from the bill."
Having said this, Black Dragon pondered and continued:
"If there is a situation of escape from the bill, it will basically be paid by our management, and the remuneration will still have to be issued. If even this guarantee cannot be made, no weak race forces will choose to cooperate with us. This is the basis for establishing the Weak Race Alliance."
After listening to Black Dragon's explanation, Feng Qi nodded.
The management of the Weak Race Alliance seemed to be getting something for nothing, and they could get a commission from the mission rewards without showing up for each mission, but in fact they also took on many risks.
"Here they come!"
At this moment, Mu Qing, who had been silent all the time, suddenly spoke.
Feng Qi heard it and looked into the distance.
In the distant sky, a silver-white figure approached quickly.
After several flashes in the air, the figure wrapped in silver-white light appeared on the top of the building.
A strange and sharp questioning voice came from the silver-white light:
"Are you sure Feng Qi is dead? Why didn't I see any news reports?"
"Feng Qi is indeed dead, as for why there is no report, I don't know, and you just didn't see the news that he was dead, but have you seen any news about him recently?" Feng Qi
responded indifferently.
"I believe you, I hope you won't let me down."
As he said, the figure in the silver-white light handed over the metal box in his hand.
Seeing this, Feng Qi reached out and took the metal box.
When the arm wrapped in the silver-white light was about to be retracted, Mu Qing's figure suddenly appeared beside it and suddenly reached out to grab its wrist.
"What are you going to do?" The owner of the voice seemed very surprised.
"The most important thing in a transaction is to be honest with each other. You choose to hide your identity, which is extremely disrespectful to us. Let us see what you look like first."
The black dragon behind him heard this and subconsciously glanced at Feng Qi wearing a black mask, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
But he obviously didn't dare to say these words in front of Feng Qi. As
soon as Feng Qi finished speaking, Mu Qing moved.
The terrifying power suddenly erupted, and with a fierce pull, the silver-white figure was dragged and staggered forward several steps.
The jade-colored light flowed on Mu Qing's body, and the silver-white light was immediately defeated and dissipated by the jade-colored light.
Seeing this scene, Feng Qi took a step back and did not intend to make a move.
He had absolute confidence in Mu Qing's strength.
From a historical perspective, for Mu Qing, there is no one in Xingcheng who can fight.
Perhaps only the self-imprisoned Tianshu has the ability to fight Mu Qing.
But it was just a fight, and he felt that Mu Qing was stronger if they really fought.
The title of the historical great devil who dominated an era is not in vain.
"Leave him alive!" He reminded at this time.
It is important to find out who issued the task.
But what is more important in Feng Qi's eyes is to find out what force is behind the task issuer.
If the task issuer is killed now, the clues will be cut off, and it will be impossible to follow the clues to catch the behind-the-scenes forces lurking in the dark.
Hearing his reminder, Mu Qing immediately nodded seriously.
In a breath, the jade-colored light flowing on the body surface began to flow towards the silver-white figure.
Facing Mu Qing's confinement, the silver-white figure was completely powerless to resist. Feeling the terrifying pressure coming, its body began to tremble uncontrollably.
This trembling was not pure fear, but more of being suppressed by Mu Qing's momentum.
At this time, even the black dragon standing not far behind could not stop trembling at this time, but his eyes were extremely excited, thinking that he had found a big backer.
Only Feng Qi, who practiced boxing, could barely cope with the strong sense of oppression brought by Mu Qing.
As the jade-colored light on Mu Qing's body surface flowed, the silver-white light was dissipated over a large area.
Looking at the silver-white figure who was revealing his appearance little by little, Feng Qi's eyes showed a hint of expectation.
The truth behind this assassination mission is about to be revealed.
Everyone go to bed early, go to bed early and get up early for good health~
