Chapter 98 Night Fury, Puppet, Light Casting

Thinking of this, Xu Le immediately stood up and walked towards the place where Bai Jing was resting.

Wang Shu, who was on duty, stopped him:

"Xu Le, what are you doing in the middle of the night?"

Wang Shu's eyes were filled with suspicion, which made Xu Le's mouth twitch.

It doesn't matter if this guy likes the captain, he doesn't think that others are also interested in the captain, right?

The captain is already in his 40s, but his 40s have not been announced to the public, and his net worth is not something that would allow someone to spend the rest of his life without working hard. What are you trying to do?

Not to mention anything else, Xu Le couldn't accept the nasolabial folds and crow's feet. Brother Shu's brain circuit is really unique.

"I want to talk to the captain about some mission matters. Don't think too much about it, Brother Shu."

"What are you talking about? I didn't think much about it."

While Wang Shu was still arguing, Xu Le had already walked to Bai Jing's side.

"Captain, I have something I want to talk to you about."

Bai Jing nodded, it seemed like she wasn't sleeping either.

"come on."

The two left the vicinity of the camp again and walked to the place where they had talked before.

Before Xu Le could speak, Bai Jing took the initiative to wave her hand, and then started communicating with pen and paper again:

"You're talking about Gu Jianuo, right? I ate her apples, and I think there's something wrong with her apples. It's better to be careful."

"The captain has noticed it?"

"I didn't notice it before, but the thing about the statue cannot be explained. If there is a reason, it is that she must find a way to get rid of the statue."

Bai Jing's thoughts are also very clear. Although she does not have the assistance of the ethereal state, her judgment of people's hearts is obviously more accurate than Xu Le's.

"Do you want to expose her? After all, she killed..."

Xu Le couldn't continue talking halfway through, and Li Shunliu actually committed suicide.

"She has never taken action. She has always been passive. Do you understand?"

"But won't this cause hidden dangers?"

"Xu Le, do you remember what I said before? Do you think her existence is beneficial or harmful to us?"

Xu Le hesitated for a moment. Although Gu Jianuo was very suspicious, the matter of dealing with statues was common to them.

"She really wants to get rid of the statue, so her purpose should be consistent with ours, and it can be considered beneficial to us."

Bai Jing nodded:

"It's good for us, but our goals are not the same. Xu Le, don't limit your thinking to people. You have to broaden your horizons so that you can see more things."

"A wider field of view?" Xu Le didn't understand.

"Can't think of it? Let me give you a little hint. This mission is too difficult."

Xu Le stayed in place and fell into thinking. Bai Jing asked him to broaden his field of vision so that he could see more things.

The goals are not the same...

The task is too difficult...

What is Gu Jianuo’s goal? Broaden the horizons and bring people into the aspects of identity, background, and power.

Gu Jianuo's background is the district chief's disciple, a senior rune warlock's disciple, and was sent by Luo Juya to help the team complete their mission.

It is assumed that Luo Juya's main intention is to observe Xu Le, and his murderous intention towards Gu Jianuo is just a concept.

The key point in this matter is not Luo Juya.

But the rune warlock Xiong Zemo.

Let’s analyze the mission objectives separately. Baixia Town, a tourist destination in name in the third era, is actually the testing ground for the alchemists and puppet masters of the third era.

Since it is a proving ground for alchemists and puppet masters.

Then this place may very well have what Gujiano and District Chief Xiong need.

Then think of the situation in Baixia Town, human experiments, blood diseases, and hair that extracts life.

Xu Le felt that what they wanted probably couldn't be exposed to the public eye.

In other words, not too many people can notice the strangeness inside.

Then the task is too difficult and requires sufficient strength.

"Have you figured it out?"

"I seem to have figured it out."

"Just think about it. When we are weak, we don't have the power to choose."

Bai Jing left, while Xu Le continued to think about Bai Jing's last words.

Team 6 needs to complete the mission before they are disbanded.

Gujiano, on the other hand, needs to get what he wants, so the goals of both parties are different, but the direction of action is the same.

Complete the task honestly, and let Gu Jianuo and the district chief take what they want quickly.

This should be the captain's idea.

After all, no one wants to participate in the game of superiority.

After sorting out his thoughts here, Xu Le felt like he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Okay, I feel much more comfortable after thinking about it clearly.

But it's still an old question, how did that idiot Gu Beichen know that there was something wrong with Gu Jianuo?

Is he enlightened?"

…

At around four o'clock the next day, the team members were already getting up one after another.

No one knows when the statue will wake up, at 5 o'clock, 6 o'clock, or 7-8 o'clock?

You won't die if you sleep less, this is what everyone thinks.

Xu Le squatted on the spot and meditated, recovering his spiritual energy that had not yet fully recovered.

Moreover, he found that meditation does not require sitting in the lotus position, and he prefers to squat.

Those who like to sit cross-legged and meditate may do it because they are handsome.

For example, Teacher Gan.

Time passed by, and the statue remained motionless until 7 o'clock.

Everyone has a vague judgment in their hearts. 8 o'clock in the evening and 8 o'clock in the morning should be correct.

When it was 7:50, Zhou Jie and Bai Jing each issued orders:

"Get everything ready."

"yes."

Rechecking the ropes and bombs, everyone began to wait for the arrival of 8 o'clock.

"It's eight o'clock, captain, why aren't you moving?" said a night watchman from Team 5.

"It should be that someone needs to get close to the pool. We have already predicted this situation before."

Zhou Jie explained, and Gan beside Bai Jing said:

"In addition to activating the statue, a warlock also needs to use spiritual energy to activate those bombs."

Activate?Warlock?Bomb?

These topics are very ambiguous. Who wants to go?

The first reaction of everyone was to look at Gan who was speaking, but Gan also said very openly:

"I'm not in good health and can't run fast, so I definitely can't do this."

Well-founded and convincing.

Xu Le has already understood that if Bai Jing's label is smooth, then Gan's label should be straightforward.

Of course, the frankness at this time made people want to laugh, but he soon stopped laughing.

Because some people have started to look at him.

"Ugh! Ugh! I don't feel well! Ugh!"

Xu Le twitched and lay on the ground. His hands were still trembling, and he felt like he was about to die.

Bai Jing had already covered her face and looked at Gu Beichen again.
