Chapter 126: Mission
There was no accident, when the Sun Destroying Gate was killed, the Tianlie Gate, which had lost its extraordinary combat power, was directly killed, and it couldn't withstand it for even an hour.
Overnight, the Heavenly Flame Gate, which had been the second major sect in the Southern Border Province for decades, collapsed and disappeared from this world.
And the Southern Heavenly Alliance also announced its dissolution on this night, and the powerful force that was originally enough to fight against the Sun Destroying Gate directly fell apart and disappeared.
The news spread throughout the southern martial arts the next day, and even some places in the farther central part heard about it.
The rivers and lakes that were not very calm were like being thrown into a boulder, which suddenly stirred up a thousand huge waves, and the Sun Destroying Gate instantly became the focus of countless sights, the center of everyone's attention.
But the sensation caused was only limited to the local sects and rivers and lakes, and it basically had no impact on the vast majority of ordinary people.
This is not entirely true, because this incident has indeed had a great impact on some ordinary people.
On the second day of the collapse of Tianliemen, Longsheng Group issued an announcement, announcing that it would wholly acquire Hengrui Group in the next six months, which caused huge waves in the society.
Hengrui Group is the group industry of Tianliemen, although it is not as big as the big business of destroying the Rimen, but the asset scale has also reached tens of billions, which is also a giant level for ordinary people.
Therefore, as soon as the merger and acquisition announcement was issued, it attracted the attention of countless people, directly made headlines in the news, and even the imperial stock market of the day was affected because of this news.
At the center of all this whirlpool is naturally the headquarters of the Sun Destroying Gate, the Zifeng Mansion in Baijing City.
The top floor of the building.
Li Mian sat on the office sofa in an extremely comfortable position, most of his body was sunk into the sofa, and he looked at his mobile phone carefully.
Next, Zhang Xu is reporting the current situation to him.
"Lu Zihong, the young master of the Tianlie Gate, still doesn't know where to go, and the Scorching Sun Divine Skill has not been found, and in the morning we received news that someone has found the traces of a high-level elder of the Tianlie Gate......
"Alright, alright."
Seeing that he was still about to say another half an hour, Li Mian couldn't help but wave his hand, "You are solely responsible for these little things, whatever you arrange, you don't have to look for me." ”
"It's no small feat." Zhang Xu immediately corrected: "If Lu Zihong successfully escapes, I don't know how much trouble there will be in the future." ”
Although the talent of that young master of the Heavenly Flame Sect can only be regarded as average, if he loses shit luck in the future, and also practices the Scorching Sun Divine Skill to the fullest, he will definitely come back to take revenge at that time.
Although it is very old-fashioned, if it weren't for the fact that this kind of thing happened too much, how could it seem old-fashioned?
Cutting grass must be eradicated, this is an unchanging truth for thousands of years.
"Trouble? What trouble can there be? Li Mian didn't even raise his eyelids.
"Without the support of the sect, he can't even get the most basic cultivation resources, and he doesn't have a safe cultivation environment, even if he has Wang Jizhen's qualifications, he can't even think of achieving transcendence."
He glanced at Zhang Xu and said lightly: "Even if Wang Jizhen gets up from the ground, I can send him back, not to mention a second generation of waste who is not even extraordinary." ”
As the young master of the Tianlie Sect, he has had the best cultivation resources since he was a child, and he is not without qualifications, but he has not been able to achieve transcendence at the age of twenty-five or sixteen, and in Li Mian's eyes, he is no different from waste.
Zhang Xu was speechless for a while.
He originally wanted to say that Lu Zihong was not a waste second generation, but it was only because he helped Lu Gaoxuan take care of Tianlie Gate all the year round that he delayed his martial arts and never entered the extraordinary.
But when he thought that Li Mian didn't even pay attention to Wang Jizhen, he couldn't say anything.
Li Mian continued: "It's that the scorching sun divine skill is a little interesting, find a way to chase that transcendent martial art back, and if you can't do it, you can start with those high-level elders." ”
"Hmm."
Zhang Xu nodded, even if Li Mian didn't tell him, he would do it with his heart.
The Sun Destroying Gate has coveted the scorching sun magic skill of the Tianlie Gate for many years, and now that he finally has the opportunity, he naturally has to make every effort to get his hands on this extraordinary martial art.
After saying the matter, Zhang Xu left here in a hurry, as the master of the door, Li Mian didn't care about anything, the matter was all on him, the deputy master, and there were too many things waiting for him to do.
After Zhang Xu left, Li Mian picked up his phone again and clicked on the video call above.
It didn't take long for the video call to be connected, and Bai Xiu's messy face appeared on the screen.
Originally, he was on a video call with Bai Xiu, but was temporarily interrupted because of Zhang Xu's arrival.
"Can't you really discuss?" Li Mian frowned, "Do you have to be in these days?" Can't change the time? ”
Last night, there was a big battle between the Sun Gate and the Tianlie Gate, and the total number of deaths alone was close to three digits, and the number of injured people was even more shocking.
The empire has long strictly forbidden such large-scale armed fights between local sects, not to mention causing such serious casualties, Li Mourning, who already has a criminal record, has been targeted by the above.
"And it's the Tianlie Gate that is causing trouble, why is it on my head?"
Li Mourning tried to clarify the sequence.
"Do you think I'm talking to you?" Bai Xiu looked at him angrily and said, "And don't ask me, this matter is not decided by me, in short, this matter is not negotiable, even I have to write a report because of your." ”
At this stage, the cabinet is specifically trying to rectify local problems, and it is natural that the Destruction of the Sun Gate made such a big move last night, and so many people were killed and injured.
Although the incident started because of the Tianlie Gate, the Tianlie Gate has been destroyed, and the Sun Destroying Gate has become the main target, and Li Mian, as the owner of the gate, has become the concentration point of firepower.
Because Li Mian has joined the Heterogeneous Management Bureau, the punishment for him is internal punishment plus salary deduction, of course, these are secondary, and the main punishment is to force him to complete a punishment task, and the time is in these days.
In addition to his personal punishment, the Sun Destroying Gate will also face a huge fine, but compared to the huge benefits obtained from destroying the Tianlie Gate and annexing the Hengrui Group, that fine is nothing.
"Even if you complete the task, you have to let me go to the school to report for the Tao, right?" Li Mian was a little helpless, he had to go to the school to report these days, and if he wanted to go on a mission, he wouldn't be able to catch up with the report.
"What's the matter, if you put a word in the bureau, you can send your graduation certificate tomorrow."
Bai Xiu said indifferently: "Just say hello, and postpone your arrival at the school when the time comes." ”
Li Mian's main concern is not this.
If he wants to postpone going to the school to report this kind of thing, destroying the sun can also help him do it easily, his main concern is that when the time comes, one of his parents will likely accompany him to the business capital, which will be a bit troublesome.
However, Bai Xiu's side has always refused to let go, and it seems that even if he says it again, it will be in vain.
"So be it." Li Mian rubbed his eyebrows, "I'll see if I can resolve the incident as soon as possible." ”
"Then you continue to pick tasks, I'll hang up first." Bai Xiu didn't say anything more, and hung up the video call directly.
Li Mian picked up the big black screen phone, opened the software of the alien management bureau above, and opened the task list in the background.
Although it is a mandatory punishment task, it does not specify which task, but can be selected by yourself, and the optional tasks are listed above.
There are many tasks of the Alien Management Bureau, and there are also dangerous levels, from the least dangerous level one to the highest dangerous level five, of which the first to third level tasks will not involve more than the strong level, only the fourth level of tasks will likely involve the fierce level, and the most dangerous level five tasks will properly deal with the upper level of the evil level of the outliers.
But most of this is an investigation task, investigating whether the abnormal event is true, such as the semi-yin monster that Li Mian killed in the alley for the first time, and the body was left in the alley without treatment, which attracted Zhang Yao and them to investigate.
There are not many tasks that require direct combat, because once it is confirmed that there is indeed an alien who is evil, the alien management bureau will quickly send force to deal with the evildoer, and Li Mian, who needs to complete the mandatory task, belongs to such a force.
And since it is a punishment task, it is naturally impossible for the punished person to pick those easy to complete, although you can choose by yourself, but the tasks from level one to three are all unselectable, and only the tasks of level four to five can be selected, that is, it is mandatory for the punished person to complete those dangerous tasks that no one usually wants to choose.
Li Mian looked at the dozen or so tasks that could be selected above, and after hesitating for a while, he finally chose a fourth-level task.
Naturally, he chose not based on the difficulty of the task, but chose the one that was the closest and seemed to take the least time.
After selecting and confirming the acceptance, a message came from the background, showing that he had officially confirmed the acceptance task from this moment on, and had a limit of fifteen days to complete it.
The countdown has started in the bottom right corner of the mission screen.
……
……
"School early report?" Li Mian pretended to be surprised, "Why did you suddenly advance it?" ”
"The school said that there was an event to select a few outstanding freshmen as representatives to participate, and you scored very high in the exam this time, so you were also selected."
Wang Suqin packed his luggage for him and said casually: "Originally, your father was going to personally send you to Shangdu at that time, but I really couldn't spare time in the past few days, so you had to go alone." ”
"Your son is not a child, and he is afraid that he will not be able to get lost alone." Li Mian was also tidying up his clothes beside him, folding them neatly and folding them into a stack.
The so-called advance report is naturally not true, in order to be able to take time out to complete the punishment task, because he does not know how long the task will take, and if it is overdue, it will be troublesome.
So I just thought of such a solution.
It might be difficult for someone else to do that, but it's not hard for him at all. For example, the phone call received by Wang Suqin from the school is indeed the number of Shangdu University, and the person responsible for the notification is also a director-level person in charge of the school.
Wang Suqin glanced at him and said: "When your father was thirty years old, he went to the field with his friends and was cheated by the black car driver, and the two big men almost didn't come back. ”
Li Mian heard his father's black history from her mouth more than once, and he couldn't refute it with his mother, so he had to nod and obediently listen to her teaching.
"Your cousin Wang Jialin will pick you up at the airport when the time comes, don't walk around when you get to the exit, call him, he will find you......"
Wang Suqin has always been capable, and it is rare to talk like this at this time, so he almost planned every step of the way to the Shang Capital, for fear that Li Mourning would meet some bad guys.
Li Mian really wanted to tell his mother that if a bad guy really met him, it should be the other party who needs to be worried.
Although it was mainly just some clothes, it still took a little half a day to pack all the things, and as for other necessities, I kept them for the Shangdu to buy them.
At noon, Li Wenguang took time out of his busy schedule to come back for lunch, he didn't have as many words as Wang Suqin, so he explained some precautions to Li Mian in a normal tone, and there was nothing else.
After eating, Li Wenguang drove Li Mourning to the airport, and the father and son stayed alone in the car, so he said something more.
"College is different from high school, although grades are also very important, but they are no longer the only one, in college is actually equivalent to entering half of the society, compared to grades, it is more important to learn to be a person."
"You're saying that character is more important than grades?" Li Mian raised an eyebrow.
"I'm talking about learning to be a good person, not learning to just be a good person."
Li Wenguang drove the car and glanced at his son.
"Looking at the entire empire, the University of Commerce can be regarded as a top-notch university, and I don't know how many dignitaries and celebrities have come out over the years, maybe any of your classmates will rise to the top in the future and become a dignitary. If you can study at the University of Commerce, your starting point has already surpassed that of nine out of nine people of the same age, so you should also grasp this opportunity to make friends and establish contacts, which will be of great benefit to you no matter what direction you develop in the future. ”
"I understand." Li Mian nodded.
If he continues to develop according to the original normal trajectory, he should indeed make friends as Li Wenguang said, gradually establish contacts, and then participate in various activities and competitions to enrich his resume, and then work in a multinational company for a few years to accumulate experience, and when he reaches about 30, he will use his family's resources to start his own business......
But since that accidental overboard, his life has changed dramatically, and it is impossible to return to the original trajectory.
……
"Remember to call home when the time comes."
After being sent to the airport and helping Li Mourning check the air ticket, boarding pass, ID card and other documents, Li Wenguang left with such a sentence.
He still has a lot to do when he goes back.
Inside the departure room.
"Are you also going to Shangdu?"
A girl sitting next to Li Mourning plucked up her courage and accosted her.
"It's not." Li Mourning returned a kind smile and took out his ticket, "I'm going to Jinchuan." ”
The girl looked at Li Mourning's ticket to Jinchuan, and everyone was stupid.
She obviously heard the conversation between this boy and his father just now, he went to school in Shangdu, how did he become Jinchuan.
