MTL - Hidden Corner-Chapter 317 Trouble One

Chapter 317 317 Trouble 1

 In Naxi Town, inside a seafood restaurant.

The three members of the Ethics Committee were eating a simple meal with blank expressions on their faces.

Old man Barton, a man and a woman Engel and two deputies, Karan, are all the people sent by the committee to investigate the Yongge Society.

 In fact, although the Ethics Committee is large and famous, its strength relies entirely on the temporary support of various countries.

 The greater the support, the stronger the committee will be. If the support is weak, the strength will be weak.

In large organizations like the United Nations, most countries only send some people to stay in the organization on a regular basis. Many times it is just to borrow a name and facilitate operations, nothing more.

Therefore, the Ethics Committee sometimes suddenly does some earth-shattering things, but most of the time it remains unknown, relying on the participation of many ambitious people with ideals in their hearts to maintain it.

“Well, last month’s salary was 10% less than before.”

Karan, who was eating scallops, was the only woman among the three. She chewed the meat in her mouth with a dull expression and her voice was weak.

"Don't worry, there will be less this month." Commissioner Barton touched the bald spot on his head. He would habitually touch it every time he ate, so that he would feel that the meal was more greasy.

 The salary is not high, and I have to constantly travel at my own expense. This life is really difficult.

 Look at the three of them, how long has it been since they changed into work clothes and suits? Three years or five years?

For frontline workers like them who often travel on business trips and fight with people, they were reluctant to change their work clothes and mend them for another three years.

“The Yongge Club is just a formality, are we almost done?” The remaining man, Engel, was drinking hand cream-flavored vegetable soup with a look of despair on his face.

"Well, that's almost it. We'll go back in the evening and the committee's boat will pick us up in the evening." Barton said.

 “What about the cost?”

 “It’s free this time.”

“Huh? It’s free this time? Are those stingy people at the party so generous for once?” Engel was surprised.

“Well, it’s said that a sponsor gave us free funds for the event, but we were asked to stop by their seafood market chain on the way back to attend the anniversary celebration.” Barton replied.

".well."

Engel and Callan were speechless and could only sigh.

　　Many years ago when they first joined the committee, they were still good boys who were full of passion and wanted to maintain world peace.

Five years have passed and the two of them have reached the age of twenty-six and seven, and their original passion has long since cooled down.

 Now we are faced with the problems of getting married and having children to provide for our parents in their old age, saving for medical insurance and pensions, and paying for their children’s education in the future.

“Karan, the mortgage is about to expire this month. I don’t have much money. You know, I have to send my sister some tuition and living expenses every month.” Engel looked at his partner Karan.

 “No money.”

“I’ll just borrow two thousand, and I’ll pay you back as soon as my salary comes next month!” Engel said sincerely.

 “You said the same thing last time.” Karan was unmoved.

“Um, are you from the ethics committee?” Suddenly, a beautiful girl with a pitiful appearance and long blue-purple hair hanging around her shoulders asked at the table next to her.

The girl is very beautiful, wearing a light purple dress and a white straw hat that blocks the light. Her eyes are big and watery, like a timid deer in the forest.

“Ah, yes, Miss, do you need any help?” A friendly smile quickly appeared on Engel’s face and he looked at the other party.

"That's right." The girl with long blue-purple hair lowered her voice, "I heard you chatting just now, and you came to find the Yongge Club on the island, so I have some information about the Yongge Club here."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the three of them suddenly froze.

 They are just here to go through the motions! ?

 But I quickly changed my mind and thought, if there are any clues, I might be able to get a large bonus if I go back this time.

"Are you sure?!" As the team leader, Barton's expression quickly became serious and he looked at the girl.

"Yes. I'm 100% sure!" The girl with long blue-purple hair nodded vigorously.

“So, can you tell me your name?”

 “My name is Yang Chengxi.” The girl replied quickly.

She is the pirate leader who attacked the cruise ship and was wiped out by the Heini brothers and sisters. Although she was rescued by Chen Jiahan, she still fears and hates the Heini brothers and sisters.

Originally I was planning to leave the island this time, but I didn’t expect to happen to hear the three people chatting here, so

"I know who is in charge of Yongge Club here." Yang Chengxi said seriously.

“.” Barton and the other two fell silent. Isn't this... too difficult?

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 bang!!

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from the direction of the beach in the distance.

 It seemed like something hard and heavy was colliding with each other.

The four of them were startled and all stood up and looked over there.

“It’s the northwest beach!” Barton judged instantly.

 “Want to take a look?” Kaland said.

"I think it's better to be safer. We can wait until it's quiet." Engel looked around and found that the island residents on the surrounding streets were all skillfully packing up their things, closing doors and windows, and then hid in their homes and pulled the curtains. Close the curtains.

Including the restaurant owner, he also grabbed the drawer where the money was kept, turned around and ran away. Soon I heard the sound of doors being closed and locked nearby.

“Well, no matter what, we are members of the committee and have undergone intense training.” Barton hesitated and stood up.

 Under the attention of three people, he turned around and ran away.

 “You must run faster than others!”

   . x3.

The three of them were stunned for a moment, then immediately pushed away their chairs and fled.

After investigating these days, they know that there are monsters like blood corpses in Yongge.

If the three of them really dared to get together, they wouldn't know how they would die.

   *

 Elsa's house.

Li Chengyi and Chen Jiahan pushed the door open and walked out.

The two of them also heard a loud noise coming from the direction of the beach.

 “Want to take a look?” Chen Jiahan asked.

"No need." Li Chengyi smiled, "Have you awakened Hua Huanyi?" He glanced at Chen Jiahan as if he was aware of it.

"Well, if you are talking about that kind of magical fragile armor, I have awakened. It's just that it's a bit too brittle and thin. For me, it doesn't have much effect." Chen Jiahan said calmly.

Although he is the senior master of the Yan-shaped Bagua Sect, because of his terrifying martial arts talent, he is not only proficient in Baguazhang, but also many miscellaneous martial arts and fighting techniques. There are all kinds of them on the market, and except for some secrets that are not told, he knows how to order them all.

"That's good. Let's go find the flowers you need." Li Chengyi said.

 The stronger the host of the Hua Yu Pearl is, the stronger the enhancement he gets.

 This is determined by the essence of flower language ability.

 So to improve Chen Jiahan's strength is also to improve his strength.

 “Flower?” Chen Jiahan didn’t understand.

“Along with the fragile armor you said, there is also a special ability.” Li Chengyi explained. He quickly explained the language ability of flowers in a scientific way.

 “Flower language??!” Chen Jiahan looked confused. Is there such a weird ability in this world? ?

“Just go and take a look and you’ll find out.” Li Chengyi didn’t say much and took him to the circular woods around the island.

 The weather in May is supposed to be summer, and the island here is close to the middle of the earth and moon, close to the perimeter line, and is in the hottest place.

 There are already many wild flowers blooming in the woods on the island.

 The lush vegetation is like a carpet, thick and dotted with tufts of weeds and shrubs.

 Some Ophiometras with black hearts and yellow edges are sparsely scattered in the grass, occupying the main field of view.

The rest are red and white wildflowers about the size of a fingernail, and I don’t know what species they are.

 Under some big trees, in a shady spot, various types of ferns are mixed together, and from time to time, a few large-leaf grasses with saw-like leaves poke out.

“Choose a flower at random and try it by touching it,” Li Chengyi said.

Chen Jiahan squinted his eyes and looked at Li Chengyi to make sure he was not joking. Then he walked out and stood among a field of flowers, reaching out and pinching a small light yellow flower.

That is a small wild chrysanthemum.

Soon, his expression changed, and his whole expression was completely different.

From Li Chengyi's side, there is nothing unusual at all, but for Chen Jiahan.

A trace of flower energy poured into his body, and at the same time, along with the flow of flower information, this first magical experience made him temporarily confused.

 For five full minutes, he squatted in place and stayed there for a full five minutes before getting up.

 Then he looked at Li Chengyi with a shocked expression.

 “Is this real?? Not an illusion?”

“Of course.” Li Chengyi pointed to the different flowers on the ground, “Go find the flower language you want.”

“I” Chen Jiahan wanted to say something, but he held it back. Now he finally understood how big the gap was between himself and the person in front of him.

If the information in the flower language is true, it means that Li Chengyi is not at a level that can be restricted by fighting skills.

Even if you are a modified person, even if you are a flying instrument master, if you are caught off guard by such a weird and exaggerated flower language ability, you will definitely lose.

"I see."

 He reached out again to touch the other little flowers.

Unlike other members, Chen Jiahan touched all the flower varieties around him in just ten minutes.

 And he decisively determined his main flower immediately.

 While determining the main flower, Li Chengyi also felt the increase and enhancement from the purple magnolia.

 This means that Chen Jiahan has completed the selection of the main flower and has reached the full collection level.

 He did not ask the other party what kind of flower it was, he just turned around and returned to where he came from.

 “Let’s go, you need to adapt to the flower language ability, and then integrate it into your fighting system.”

"yes."

   *

   *

 The beach on the northwest side.

 The **** corpses roared and flew up, rushing towards the Utopia reformers who came ashore.

　　唰!

Patches of gray sword light suddenly lit up.

The Whisperers drew their weapons and easily chopped the **** corpses to the ground.

In just a moment, hundreds of **** corpses were scattered on the beach, and there was no sound anymore.

“How come these low-quality biochemical modifications appear in a place like this?” Xue Yan clamped the neck of a blood corpse with one hand and lifted it up to observe it carefully.

“The technology is not very good, very rough.” She commented.

 “Stranger, this is private territory, not the place you should be.”

As the Blood Swallow threw away the blood corpses, new blood corpses emerged from the beach woods again.

This time the **** corpses were much larger than before. Each head was two meters high and four to five meters long.

They are like animals, moving on all fours, and the blood-red muscles and white ligaments all over their bodies can be clearly seen.

The most noticeable thing is not these big **** corpses, but the living people wearing smiling human skin masks standing among them.

Each of these people holds a book in their hands, wears dark red robes, and has their heads slightly lowered, like ascetics who have been practicing for a long time.

"Are you a local force on this island?" Xue Yan looked at this new group of troubles with a calm voice.

 “What do you think?” An old man who was leading the group of red-robed men replied in a deep voice.

"Haha, you have the guts. After seeing our equipment and weapons, you should also understand whether your own level can pose a threat to us." Xueyan's half-man and half-horse body walked towards the opponent calmly.

“We are just a group of people who can’t live long, so what do we have to be afraid of?” the old man in red robe sighed.

A red cross sword flying instrument slowly poked out the tip of the sword from behind him and pointed it at the opposite side.

“Besides, do you really think you killed the **** corpse?”

Xueyan and the group of whisperers were startled, and suddenly noticed something and looked down.

 The **** corpses that had died just now had their wounds healed and stood up again.

 Except for a very small number of corpses that were cut into segments, almost all the **** corpses were resurrected.
