Chapter Seventy-Seven: On the Eve of the Challenge of the Ability Arena
When Mo Qiannian took a shower and changed his clothes and reappeared in the living room of the villa, it was already an hour later. Dinner www.biquge.info has just been prepared.
"Everyone is together, let's eat. Ke Luo saw Mo Beiyan taking Mo Qiannian's hand and walking downstairs, so he beckoned everyone to eat.
According to everyone's habit, they still eat at two separate tables. Bai Xilu carefully placed a chair for Mo Qiannian beside Mo Beiyu. Just put down and wanted to talk to Mo Beyi, but Mingmei sat down on the chair.
"Sister Mei'er, this is for Xiao Nian to sit on. Bai Xilu smiled and patted Mingmei's shoulder and reminded.
"Lulu, Xiao Niannian doesn't need a chair. Mingmei raised her eyebrows as she spoke, pressing Bai Xilu to her place and sitting down.
Mo Beiyan sat down with a smile, and easily scooped Mo Qiannian beside him into his thigh, letting her nest in his arms. Then he began to take a three-year break from feeding his baby.
"The baby has eaten a lot of fast food in the past few years, do you know that he will eat well in the future?" Mo Beiyu remembered that in the past three years, Mo Qiannian had always picked and picked the ingredients for making sandwiches, hamburgers, and gimbap in the space, and knew that she rarely cooked serious meals to eat.
"Hehe, only Nian Nian needs to eat, of course, the simpler the better. Mo Qiannian said indifferently, and swallowed the shrimp that Mo Beyu had sandwiched into her mouth after speaking.
"Fruit was also well eaten. Mo Beyu continued unrelentingly. At hand, he was carefully picking fish bones for the little guy.
"I can't remember. But Nian Nian has eaten a lot of nuts. There are a lot of mutated nut vegetation in the snowy jungle, such as pine nuts and walnuts. Mo Qiannian argued with reason.
Everyone else was surprisingly quiet during the dinner, only the Mo family brothers and sisters had been having a conversation that was not nutritious.
After dinner, Mo Beyu introduced the newly joined members of the inexplicable team to Mo Qiannian in turn. Yao Xing's team has always been in charge of him, and the other team members except him have not lived in the villa, so Mo Beyu did not go into detail.
While everyone was chatting during the after-dinner time, Wang Ting took two middle-aged men to visit the villa.
"Eh, Miss Mo, it's been a long time. Don't come back, you've been here for a long time, and I've been wondering for a long time!" Wang Ting saw Mo Qiannian sitting in Mo Beiyu's arms, and Wang Ting said enthusiastically.
"Commander Wang, don't come unharmed!" Mo Qiannian asked detachedly.
"It's so late that Wang Sileng is here, not just to catch up and chat. Mo Beyu looked at Wang Ting and the two strange middle-aged men behind him, and said bluntly.
"It is so, the last days have entered the fifth year. In order to better understand the status of the base's development, I'm going to hold an ability assessment test before the base renaming ceremony. Wang Ting said.
"Name change ceremony?" Mo Beyu asked, the corners of his lips slightly hooked.
"Yes, the base will be officially renamed the 'Blade' base, and a renaming ceremony will be held at the end of the month. Therefore, starting tomorrow, every ability and ability team in the base will be invited to participate in the ability assessment, and there will be individual teams to compete in the ring after that. Wang Ting sat on the sofa opposite Mo Beiyu and said in detail.
"Do I have to participate in the team in the base?" asked Mo Beyi.
"Of course not. Of course, participation is voluntary, but I think that if the inexplicable team can participate and accept individual and team challenges, the other teams and abilities in the base will be more motivated. Wang Ting said with a smile like a spring breeze.
Mo Beiyu sneered, Wang Ting is the kind of person who makes the best use of things. In the past two years, Mo Beyu has spent most of his time with an inexplicable team at the East China base. On the one hand, because of the geographical location, it is convenient for them to go out to hunt. On the other hand, it is because of the treatment given by Wang Ting. Forty percent of the crystal nucleus income of the entire East China base in the past two years will be distributed to the inexplicable team, on the condition that their team tries to stay in the East China base when there is no task.
The best of both worlds, of course, Mo Beyu doesn't. However, today, it seems that Wang Ting has sensed that the inexplicable team will not stay in his base for a long time, so he wants to play a final role before they leave.
"If the base engages in a competency tournament, there will definitely be prizes. Let's talk about the prize first, shall we?" Mo Qiannian blinked his big black and white eyes, looked at Wang Ting and asked.
Mo Beyan kissed the forehead of the little guy in his arms, what happened in the past three years he wrote a letter to inform Mo Qiannian, and the little guy asked about the prize at this time, and it was clear that he was talking to Wang Ting about the price of the transaction. Let their inexplicable team stand up as bait, and naturally have to have a corresponding reward.
"Miss Mo, rest assured, the prize will definitely satisfy you. Wang Ting is also an understanding person, he was also prepared before coming tonight, and he naturally smiled when he saw that his goal was achieved.
"Let's hear the rules of the ring. Mo Beyi said.
"Tomorrow after nine o'clock in the morning, all the Abilities will be able to go to the Abilities Center for evaluation. The results of the assessment will be announced one week later, and then the Abilities or teams can submit their own challenge requests. Wang Ting said.
"After the results of the assessment are announced, will we still be challenged?" Mo Qiannian asked in confusion.
"Poof~~~Hahaha~~~" Ke Luo couldn't hold back again, because Mo Qiannian laughed out loud in a low-key manner.
"There are no absolutes. If Miss Mo is interested in any of the strangers, she can also take the initiative to challenge them. Wang Ting said disappreciatively.
"The challenged party is not a fool, so people won't refuse, right?" said Koloe, rolling his eyes.
"As long as you accept the challenge, there are big prizes. You can earn a lot of life points whether you win or lose, and the challenge is just a competition to the end, what's the big deal. Wang Ting replied patiently.
"No problem, our team will actively cooperate with the activities of the base. Is there anything else Commander Wang has to explain?" Mo Beyu asked again, the eviction order was full of meaning.
"That's all, we'll be waiting for you at the Center for Abilities tomorrow. Leave. After Wang Ting nodded to everyone, he left with the two middle-aged people who had not said a word since they came and left.
"Brother, what do you say is the purpose of Wang Ting's ability evaluation competition?"
"After several years of development, there are only three formal bases in country Z, and the East China base is famous for having the highest average level of the supernatural. Wang Ting's arrangement, on the one hand, is to accurately grasp the true level of the ability masters in the base, and the law of the growth and improvement of the ability, and on the other hand, it may be to eradicate the dissidents. Mo Beyu replied with a dry towel and a casual wipe of his hair.
"Eradicate dissidents, rely on the ring competition, how to do it?" Mo Qiannian couldn't figure it out.
"Wang Ting was originally just a small commander of the East China Military Region, but now although he nominally controls the operation of the East China base, he is actually constrained by the Abnormal Energy Center. Speaking of which, this is a white-eyed wolf raised by himself who doesn't know people. The captain of the special forces group under his original command was regarded by him as a key training object, and he gave priority to using the crystal nucleus to improve his personal abilities. As a result, when the captain's ability level increased to a certain level, he built his own ability team. Now he is the chief team of the East China Base Ability Center, and he enjoys a lot of voice in the East China Base. Mo Beiyu gave Mo Qiannian a summary of what he knew.
"Wang Ting wants to use the hands of our team to get rid of the white-eyed wolf he raised through this ring competition, could he be too naïve?" Mo Qiannian was still puzzled.
"That special forces captain is called Xing Hao, and he is a seventh-order thunder ability. His team seems to be called the Thundercloud Clan, consisting of twelve Adepts. Wang Ting was not naïve to borrow our hands to get rid of the Thundercloud Clan, he wanted Xing Hao to bring about his own destruction. Mo explained.
"What do you say?" Mo Qiannian asked curiously.
"It is said that this Xing Hao is a stubborn and arrogant guy, and he belongs to the type of reckless man who has no courage and no strategy. In addition, the special forces brigade he was in before was well-known and powerful in country Z, so he always had the illusion that Lao Tzu was invincible in the world. Wang Ting has mentioned Xing Hao's personality problems to me more than once, because in the past two years, I have been trying to avoid going on missions with the Thundercloud Team as much as possible. Mo Beiyu walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, and said after taking Mo Qiannian into his arms.
"Haah~~~ Such a second goods can still cause trouble for Wang Ting?" Mo Qiannian said with some tears and laughter.
Wang Ting had too many things to worry about, and when he hadn't yet freed up his hands to form his own team, Xing Hao's Thundercloud team had already begun to take shape. Mo Beyu rubbed his baby's little furry head and said.
"That's it, that's very annoying, if Xing Hao is a smart person, Wang Ting can still cage and cooperate. It's a pity that he is a second-class goods, and he must have caused chaos to Wang Ting. But brother, why did you deliberately avoid the Thundercloud Clan?" Mo Qiannian raised his head and asked.
"Didn't my brother say it, Xing Hao has always felt that Lao Tzu is the best in the world, if we meet in the mission, it is inevitable that he will not be overly obsessed with wanting to compete with us. Mo Beyu explained helplessly.
"In other words, in this competition in the ring, Xing Hao will definitely bring the Thundercloud team to declare war on us, right?" Mo Qiannian understood the key issue.
"That's right, and he's going to declare war on us and want to get rid of us. After all, the consequences of a loss of ability are much more serious and easy to understand than the consequences of a gun misfire. Mo Bei hugged Mo Qiannian and lay down on the bed with the baby in his arms.
"What my brother means is that Wang Ting should take advantage of this challenge in the ring to privately instigate Xing Hao to take the Thundercloud team to compete with our inexplicable team, and vaguely mentioned that as long as our team is completely eradicated, Xing Hao's Thundercloud team can become the real number one in the world. Brother, do you think Wang Ting planned to do so?" Mo Qiannian deduced from Wang Ting's understanding of Xing Hao's psychology and Xing Hao's personality that Wang Ting would choose such a plan to add fuel to the fire and lure the enemy to death.
"The baby thinks the same as my brother. Mo Beyu kissed the forehead of the baby in his arms and nodded in response.
According to this plan, Wang Ting wanted Xing Hao to die in the hands of his brother. In this way, the other members of the Thundercloud Clan did not dare to do anything to their brother even if they wanted to avenge their captain. But why should we help Wang Ting block hatred?" Mo Qiannian didn't like to be part of someone else's plan to be deployed.
"Xing Hao will not die at anyone's hands, he will only die because of his uncontrollable ability. Mo Beyu said with a smile.
If that's the case, Nian Nian doesn't think it's necessary for his brother to make a move. Mo Qiannian suggested.
"Hehehe, do you want to have fun?" asked Mo Beyu dotingly.
"Brother, look at it, our inexplicable team has always been the legendary No. 1 team in China, as the captain brother, you should continue to maintain a sense of mystery, and it's better to become a fan of strength. What do you think?" Mo Qiannian said with a playful wink.
"As long as the baby is happy, just play if you want to. But the baby doesn't have mental powers, so you have to carry toffee with you when facing enemies or challengers, you know?" Mo Beyu said solemnly. In fact, he will always use his mental power to protect his baby, but he doesn't want to say that he wants to exchange time and his persistence for Mo Qiannian's final peace of mind and trust.
"Brother, Wang Ting is a smart person, he should know very well that we will definitely understand his plan. He's just here to talk about the deal in disguise today, right?, can he afford to pay us for hiring us?" Mo Qiannian suddenly asked arrogantly.
"Poof~~ Hahaha, ghost elf. The baby is relieved that his brother will not do a loss-making business. Mo Beyu couldn't help but smile, and a smile rolled in his chest.
"Uh-huh, that's good. Aha~~ Brother, you said that you will do the ability assessment tomorrow, do you want to suppress the real level? Nian Nian is afraid that the truth will scare them. Mo Qiannian sighed, rubbed his sleepy eyes and asked.
"Your baby can do whatever he wants. But now the baby doesn't have to think about anything, go to sleep obediently~~" Mo Beyu hugged the little man in his arms, pulled the soft blanket, covered the two of them, and coaxed softly.
"Hmm~~" Mo Qiannian sighed softly, rubbed Mo Beyan's chest, smashed his mouth twice and slowly fell asleep.
The Strange Energy Center of the East China Base is a two-story club remodeled, which is not large in size but has an unobstructed and open layout. At nine o'clock in the morning, the center of the lobby of the Ability Center had already gathered a lot of people with abilities to participate in the ability assessment. The arrival of the inexplicable team instantly attracted the attention of everyone present.
"Tut-tut~~ I didn't expect a lot of people to come. We're still late. Zhang Tong sighed while patting his beer belly.
"Didn't we all evaluate it when we first entered the base?
"The base wants to accurately grasp the law and speed of the growth of the ability. Gu Yifan said.
"That's right, my last assessment was two years ago. Li Yu said with understanding.
Mo Beyu walked at the back of his own team, and Wang Ting stopped them when they first arrived at the Ability Center, and they were walking side by side with Mo Beyu at this moment, talking to each other. Mingmei took the opportunity to pull Mo Qiannian to her side, held her arm affectionately, and chattered about what had happened in the past few years.
"Excuse me, Captain Mo. A brisk female voice interrupted Wang Ting and Mo Beiyu's discussion, and also attracted the attention of Mingmei and Mo Qiannian. The voice was made by a curly-haired beauty in her twenties dressed in red. She was tall and had a bumpy figure. Her smile is very bright, and the end of her words has a lazy upward tone, which is very charming.
"Something?" Mo Beyu asked succinctly and indifferently in the face of irrelevant people, and at this moment it was an expressionless ice cube face, and asked concisely.
"My name is Xin Yue, and I am a mutant ice-based ninth-order ability. I want to join your inexplicable team. Xin Yue said confidently.
"Don't. Mo Beyu didn't bother to raise his eyelids, and refused directly.
"Why? Isn't my ability level enough for your team?" Xin Yue's bright smile cracked visibly, and she asked unacceptably.
"Superfluous. Mo Beyu still just spat out two cold words.
"What do you mean?" Xin Yue asked incomprehensibly.
"Sister paper, our team has no shortage of mutated ice abilities, so the captain said that you are redundant. Do you understand?" Zhang Tong explained with a lewd smile that complemented his appearance.
"In that case, let him stand up, and let's see how about letting me join the team if I'm better than him?" Xin Yue proposed.
"There's no need. There was obvious impatience in Mobe's condensed tone.
"Captain Mo, I admit that a large part of the reason why I insisted on joining the inexplicable team is that I admire you very much, and I hope to have more opportunities to get along with you and get to know each other. I also hope that you will give me a chance for the sake of my sincerity. Besides, it doesn't hurt to have one more ninth-order ability in the team, right?" Xin Yue said generously. She originally wanted to join the inexplicable team because she was interested in Mo Beyi. You must know that she is a ninth-order ability, and she is still a good-looking girl, so she doesn't have to worry about not being accepted by the team at all. She believed that even if Mo Beyu was cold-hearted, he wouldn't bear to directly reject her confession in front of so many people, at least he would give her a chance to join the team.
"Damn, Xiao Niannian, this girl has knocked on the door to dig the foot of the wall. Can you bear this?!" Before Mo Beiyu could make a sound, Mingmei exploded directly after hearing Xin Yue's straightforward confession.
"Sister paper, our captain has a master, so don't waste your thoughts. Zhang Tong is also a person who is not afraid of big things when he sees the excitement, and he persuaded him seriously.
"Captain Mo is so good, there will naturally be a lot of people who admire him, so it's good that everyone competes fairly according to their abilities. I don't give up because of such a small setback. Xin Yue said indifferently. She didn't take Mingmei and Zhang Tong's words to heart at all. She had been paying attention to Mo Beyu for more than a year, except for the operation mission with the team, he was usually alone, and he had never found out that he had too much contact with anyone, let alone any ambiguous relationship.
Xin Yue had already thought before she came today, she would choose an occasion like today to make a high-profile confession, which was inevitable. It didn't matter if she couldn't get an immediate response from Mo Beyi, at least let those who thought the same way as herself know her determination. After more than a year of observation, she knows that Mo Beyu is a difficult master to be impressed, but since she is favored by her Xin Yue, she will do her best to give up if she doesn't get it.
"Miss Xin, my brother won't accept you. Mo Qiannian said with a smile.
