Chen Xiao looked at the mission briefing with his mobile phone.
"By the way, why does this "Order Foundation" have so many eyeliners, can they even detect things that will appear in the auction?" He muttered.
In fact, the Foundation has a little more detection methods than imagined. Since the D-level anomalies do not react very much, most of them rely on intelligence collection and the previously installed anomaly alarm system to detect them. The abnormality of the abnormality will trigger larger detection equipment, and the reaction of B level or above will be directly captured by the detection satellites outside the atmosphere, and it can also be directly simulated to observe. In some inaccessible areas, volcanoes, There are many huge detection instruments working all the time in the polar regions, deep sea, and snow peaks.
What Chen Xiao has come into contact with now is only a small "abnormal biological research area", which is the small branch at the end of the huge system of the "Order Foundation", so it is still impossible to see where the foundation is really powerful.
But that's all for later.
At this time, Chen Xiao looked a little puzzled, because according to the mission introduction, the containment of this anomaly is very simple, it is just an auction, and according to the rich and powerful behavior of the foundation, it should just find someone to go there and go straight to death If the price increase is obtained, the task is considered complete.
But this time the mission funds are 60 points, which is not much less than the last mission to blow up the villa. You must know that the pile of big bugs last time can be regarded as difficult to deal with in the "D-level area" Mission gone.
With doubts, Chen Xiao clicked to join the task, and then frowned.
Because there are two blank columns behind his avatar, that is to say, this task is for 3 people.
"Sure enough, there is something strange..." he thought: "An auction, but three people are going there. Is it just for insurance?"
At this time, there were two consecutive sounds of "ding" and "ding".
Two black head shadows join in.
"Huo~! So fast, did you just add it after seeing the mission introduction?"
Indeed, no one wants to go on a desperate mission, but someone will definitely pick up such a seemingly harmless mission.
"So, will you meet any interesting people this time?"
I don't know if it's too boring to be idle. Anyway, after Chen Xiao received the new task, he kept grinning and whispering something to himself, and licked his lips from time to time. In all likelihood, just call 120 directly.
...
...
A good story never needs to be maintained with words.
The time came when the night fell.
The streets of City K seem to wake up only under the neon lights. Jinding Building in the city center, this representative luxury building is even more crowded in the crowd, attracting the eyes of countless money worshipers.
Behind the splendor, there are always corners. There is a quiet small street not far from the bustling center. Compared with two streets away, it is like another world.
A taxi pulls up.
A thin man in a suit opened the door and got out of the car. His skin was pale, his eyes were long and narrow, and his hairline was a little high. He didn't look very good.
...and this person...wears a mask.
One is very common, the kind that people often wear on windy days, but in this season that is not very cold, this kind of attire seems a bit strange.
However, Chen Xiao was already very satisfied. If it wasn't for the credit of this mask, he probably wouldn't even be able to get a car.
He stooped, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and reconfirmed the location.
"Box No. 330..." he muttered, and turned into an old small residential area as indicated by the map.
The corridor in the neighborhood was a bit damp, and the walls were glowing with the faint luster from the street lamps. Chen Xiao came to the door of the building. There was a row of dilapidated mailboxes nailed to the wall. They were crooked and full of rust.
He was stunned for a moment, because, beside the mailbox, there were already two men standing.
One is tall and strong.
An average figure with long hair.
In the corner without street lights, the faces of the two could not be seen clearly.
But Chen Xiao recognized the figure of one of them.
The man turned his head and also saw Chen Xiao.
Although he was wearing a mask at the moment, the other party obviously recognized him, and showed a similar blank expression.
...
...
The atmosphere froze
...
...
"Uh...Hi!" Chen Xiao blinked, waved his hand and greeted, breaking the silence.
Actually, from the time when Chen Xiao was in the orphanage, he thought that the other party would probably end up in this way. He is smart, strong, and has rich experience in actual combat. He looks very reliable, otherwise Mr. Zou would not have Give him a special position among the four, and if the management of this foundation is not stupid, they will not let go of such a suitable ready-made "field personnel".
The other party nodded blankly, and seemed to have no idea what to say for a while, and was a little at a loss.
The long-haired man standing aside looked at Chen Xiao, and then at the sturdy man beside him.
"Brother Xiong, do you know this kid?" He asked with some doubts.
"Well..." Bai Xiong responded, "To some extent, this guy has saved me~IndoMTL.com~ As he spoke, he showed a very uncomfortable expression, as if Recalling some unpleasant past events.
Upon hearing this, the long-haired man immediately looked up and down Chen Xiao with a surprised look.
"My name is Ding Manshan!" He walked over and stretched out a hand in a sly way.
At this moment, Chen Xiao could see his face clearly. His cheeks were thin and his brows were very gloomy. He looked like the kind of vicious character who would bite off a piece of his opponent's flesh even if his own front teeth collapsed.
Chen Xiao's evaluation of this kind of person is basically classified as the type of person who tends to do something that is not in line with the situation at that time.
Of course, it is definitely impossible for Chen Xiao to show any emotions now, he stretched out his hand with a smile, and shook the other party politely.
...
There was a sound of old metal rubbing, and the mailbox was opened.
"I thought Mr. Zou would be impatient to execute you." Bai Xiong's voice came.
Chen Xiao smiled happily: "I thought so too, but it seems that I am lucky."
he responded.
Bai Xiong came over and handed Chen Xiao a gorgeous invitation letter.
"Let's go to the auction first. I'll tell you about me on the way." Ice Bear said, his voice as calm as ever: "And... why are you wearing a mask?"
Chen Xiao gave a light "Oh" and said in a low voice, "It's so convenient."
Then he took off the mask casually.
Although Bai Xiong had known Chen Xiao's face for a long time, he still frowned.
And the gloomy man named Ding Manshan was taken aback by Chen Xiao's appearance.
“…”
He cursed something in a low voice, with a disgusted expression on his face.
