The next day, Sumu took office as the Minister of Intelligence of the Bronze Coffin Company, in charge of the intelligence department.
He also met the official employees of the Bronze Coffin, a total of ten people excluding himself and Yang Dongqing.
It is worth mentioning that although these ten people are all nightmare apostles, they are also ordinary people.
The third floor underground of the Bronze Coffin is a spacious underground base. Above it is the Bronze Coffin's office building, which is used to accommodate ordinary employees who handle daily affairs. The underground is the core, where the Nightmare Apostles gather.
"Minister Su, these ten are all the nightmare apostles currently in the bronze coffin. There were some more before, but they were killed in the nightmare world." Murong Mengli introduced.
"Everyone, Mr. Su Mu is the newly appointed Director of the Intelligence Department of Bronze Coffin. He is also a powerful Transcendent. The Mr. Yang Dongqing next to him is also a Transcendent."
Su Mu leaned on his snakewood cane and calmly looked at the ten nightmare apostles in front of him.
There were seven men and three women, all wearing different clothes, some bright and fancy, some ordinary. The only thing in common was probably the uneasiness and panic between their brows.
This is how a normal person would react when experiencing a nightmare world.
The ten people introduced their names one by one. When they introduced themselves, their eyes involuntarily looked at Su Mu, and they were obviously a little curious about this airborne extraordinary minister.
Afterwards, Murong Mengli stated the purpose of gathering everyone together.
"This time I called everyone here not only to introduce Minister Su and Mr. Yang, but also for an important matter. I decided to form a team to explore the abandoned city area in two days."
After these words were spoken, everyone became a little agitated, some frowned, and some looked frightened.
Abandoned city area?
Su Mu's eyes moved slightly, and information about the abandoned city area flashed through his mind. He controlled the Viper Gang, so his information network naturally exceeded that of ordinary people, and that included information about the abandoned city area.
Star City is divided into twenty districts in total, one to ten are the Upper City District, and eleven to twentieth are the Lower City District. In fact, a long time ago, Star City did not have twenty districts, but twenty-one!
Rumor has it that more than ten years ago, a plague broke out, causing almost all the people in District 21 to die. In order to prevent the spread of the plague, the Empire ordered a blockade of District 21. Over time, District 21 disappeared from people's sight and became a deserted area.
"The abandoned city is full of plague. Wouldn't it be like sending us to our deaths to explore such a hellhole?" said a woman with heavy makeup on her face, looking a little excited.
"Yeah, what's there to explore in that damn place?"
"We joined the Bronze Coffin to find a way to deal with the nightmare world, not to die in vain!"
Everyone echoed this, obviously not optimistic about Murong Mengli's decision. Su Mu also noticed that Murong Mengli did not seem to have high authority among these people.
He soon thought of Han Yu. When he invited himself and Yang Dongqing before, Han Yu had obviously deliberately interfered. These people might have been secretly instigated by Han Yu.
Facing everyone's doubts, the noble lady showed no anger on her face, and said calmly: "The plague is what the empire said to the outside world. The real situation is that the nightmare invasion caused District 21 to become a ruin. The nightmare that caused the rebellion has been killed by the empire's high-ranking officials, but because the place has been contaminated by nightmares and has become unsuitable for human habitation, it has gradually become deserted.
In fact, there are people there, including scavengers, fugitives, or people hiding from their enemies. "
"That's also very dangerous. Who knows if there are any remaining nightmare monsters in there?" shouted a burly man with tattoos on his arms.
When mentioning the nightmare monster, everyone's faces turned pale involuntarily, obviously recalling the horrific memories in the past.
"One million." Murong Mengli raised a slender white finger.
This word seemed to have some kind of magical power, instantly making the scene quiet.
"Everyone who participates in this exploration mission will receive one million. If there are any casualties, the company will provide double compensation to your family."
Everyone had different expressions, some had a flash of heat in their eyes, some looked hesitant. Money has always been a motivating factor for people, and the day they became nightmare apostles, they knew they would not live long, so they might as well make more money, either to spend on wine and women or to leave it to their families. This was also one of the purposes of their joining the company.
Su Mu sighed slightly. The nobles are rich. One million per person, these ten people make ten million, not to mention the appearance fees of the two extraordinary people, himself and Yang Dongqing.
Even though he controls the Viper Gang, the actual available funds are only around 10 million, and the amount of money he can get from issuing a single mission can exceed 10 million.
Even Yang Dongqing was moved by this number. Today, Yang Dongqing had already changed into a fashionable new outfit: a loose graffiti-printed T-shirt with a black leather jacket on the outside, white ripped leggings with exposed knees, and a pair of white high-top sneakers on his feet. The laces were fluorescent green, which made him look particularly eye-catching.
He bought this dress last night, spending one tenth of his savings! He then used the remaining nine tenths to buy Jasmine a backpack-revealing hip skirt. When he heard about the one million yuan, his heart was beating wildly.
How many clothes can this buy for Jasmine! ?
However, coming from the downtown area, he obviously underestimated the greed of human nature.
The man with the tattooed arms suddenly said, "I know the abandoned city area. The people there are all ruthless characters who kill without blinking an eye. There are also many remaining nightmare monsters. The danger is no less than that of the nightmare world. If you want us to explore it, it's like sending ourselves to death!"
Murong Mengli frowned slightly: "I am not forcing you. This mission is entirely voluntary. If you don't want to go, you don't have to go."
