Chapter 132 -122 Agent, Wild Thunder Scroll of Cloudless Wilderness!_1
[Blood King: After departing from the ‘Disciple’s Sanctuary’, I was determined to fulfill your entrusted task as soon as possible and invaded the ‘Horseback Warrior’ immediately. But I didn’t anticipate that the ‘Teleporter’ had beaten me to it…]
[Blood King: I read the note’s information and fell into deep thought. Giving me the ‘Horseback Warrior’ soul mark is both logical and reasonable, but why give me the ‘Teleporter’ soul mark as well?]
[Blood King: I pondered this for a long time and concluded that there must be some profound reason behind your actions! Surely you did not give the same content to me and the ‘Teleporter’ just because it was convenient when writing the note.]
[Amos: …]
[Blood King: I racked my brains to deduce your intentions, striving to anticipate your needs and resolve your problems… Ultimately, I arrived at a conclusion!]
[Blood King: You speculated in advance that the ‘Teleporter’ will invade before me and that the ‘Horseback Warrior’ would meet an untimely demise.]
[Blood King: Yet the ‘Teleporter’ is a former member of Taros, and it would seem bad if word got out that you instigated him to eliminate a former comrade just because the ‘Horseback Warrior’ refused to immediately submit to you. Such news may tarnish your reputation and make you look intolerant!]
[Blood King: Therefore, you wanted to send a newcomer like me, who is unknown to others, to kill and ensure your secret is safe. With this in mind, everything seems rational. I cannot help but admire your foresight.]
[Amos: …]
[Blood King: I thought you and I had an unspoken understanding about this matter. I did not expect you to want me to articulate the details of this situation; it seems my life is not long for this world. I may well follow in the footsteps of the ‘Teleporter’.]
[Blood King: Rest assured, in order to maintain your reputation, even if you want to take my life, I will not let this matter leak a single bit. I am even willing to expend a valuable artifact and risk my life against the mighty ‘Teleporter’; it’s something I’m willing to do.]
[Amos: …]
Lin Xun didn’t know what expression Amos had at this moment, but he was sure Amos was dumbfounded by his series of theories.
After a long time, a new message appeared in the chat box.
[Amos: Interesting! Very interesting!]
[Amos: Do you want to be my agent?]
Lin Xun frowned, sensing that things were not as simple as they seemed.
Amos didn’t seem to blame him and seemed even to be offering him a promotion?
He couldn’t help guessing that Amos, not being a fool, would be good if he ended up believing half of what he had just said.
Most likely Amos thinks of him as a ruthless and bold individual, bold enough to kill when the task was stolen.
Such a demeanor is in line with the typical behavior in the New World, so Amos considers him a potential candidate and gives him an opportunity.
[Blood King: I am honored to serve… but I am a newcomer, I don’t know what duties an agent needs to perform.]
[Amos: The organization’s senior officials control many areas and can’t be everywhere at once. As the name suggests, an agent is responsible for managing a designated area on their superior’s behalf.]
Being an agent will obviously entail more infiltration into the enemy’s ranks.
However, unanticipated windfalls are not always a good thing.
[Blood King: I will never forget your kindness, sir!]
[Amos: I have vacancies for agents in Hang City, Ning City, and Wencheng, where would you prefer to go?]
Lin Xun’s heart tightened. Was Amos testing him for his geographical location?
[Blood King: In all my modesty, I would like to test my mettle in Hang City.]
[Amos: Ha, Hang City is a provincial capital and has the ‘Heavenly Punishment’ branch of the Apostle Council stationed there. You lack sufficient strength and it would only be suicidal if you go there.]
[Amos: Rather, why don’t you go to Wencheng? I’ll give you a task. If you accomplish it, then you’ll become the agent of Wencheng.]
As expected, Amos still had reservations about him.
To become an agent, he had to be tested through a task.
[Blood King: Your orders are my commands!]
[You have received a ‘Note with Information’ (Trash)]
[Amos: You just do as the note instructs. If the task is completed, you will become the agency of Wencheng.]
[Amos: That will be all, you may leave now.]
The chat window disappeared, and the text showed that Amos had already left.
After quickly teleporting back to his own chapter, Lin Xun opened his inventory.
[‘Note with Information’ (Trash), the note contains a piece of information: At noon the next day, head to Room 404 of the ‘Shangri-La Hotel’ in Wencheng.]
Lin Xun furrowed his brows. Amos wants to meet face to face in real life?
Such unexpected face to face meetings often lead to unexpected outcomes, and he had to be cautious.
During the meeting, if Amos recognizes his identity, he might not avoid a fierce battle.
Amos is a strong contender among the Twelve Disciples, and he himself is only a Four Difficulty level Apostle. In the mouth of Amos, his power is just passable.
It goes without saying, Amos’s level of difficulty and his own strength are beyond reach to him.
He checked the time and saw that it was late at night.
He quickly called his boss.
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
His lady boss seemed to have fallen asleep, and she only picked up after a while, her voice was a bit sleepy.
Lin Xun explained everything that happened today to Li Xingyue.
“You mean you successfully infiltrated the Disciple’s Sanctuary, not only exterminated a member of the New World but also got promoted to Amos’s agent, responsible for affairs in Wenchang?”
Li Xingyue’s voice was suddenly clear, she seemed to have a hard time believing it.
Lin Xun also found the situation surreal. Jokingly he said:
“Exactly, Director Li, you’re the legitimate boss of Wencheng, and I’m the underworld boss of Wencheng.
We’re pretty much a perfect match.”
“Enough of that, wait at home, I’ll be there right away.”
After the call, Lin Xun waited quietly at home.
About twenty minutes later, the rapid clatter of high heels echoed in the hallway outside his flat.
Lin Xun opened the door to find Li Xingyue in a black silk strapless long dress as promised.
The round and white tender shoulders at the edge of the strap, the fair and straight legs under the long dress, and those seemingly sleepy peach blossom eyes, were all incredibly charming.
This was his first time seeing his boss dressed like this, apparently rushed over immediately after getting up, without even time to get ready.
Li Xingyue closed the door and pulled him onto the sofa.
“Amos obviously still has suspicions about you, and meeting you at the hotel tomorrow doesn’t necessarily mean he will meet you personally.”
“But in any case, we have to be fully prepared.”
“Lu Caiyi will accompany you tomorrow, and here’s an artifact for you, just in case.”
With that, a roll of yellowed parchment materialized in Li Xingyue’s hand, faint traces of golden lightning circulating around it.
[Wild Thunder Scroll of Cloudless Wilderness (Epic+ Level Artifact): A parchment paper made from dragon skin, imbued with terrifying thunder powers. Just by tearing the scroll, the devastating power within could be released.]
[This artifact can be used in two ways: One is a group attack, which releases lightning power indiscriminately, causing terrible damage.]
[The other is a single attack. This attack is guaranteed to hit the enemy, concentrating the lightning power, not only forming an unparalleled killing power, but also causing a long-lasting paralyzing effect.]
