Xu Lang's cold voice resounded in the conference room, and all the newcomers were a little panicked under this warning.

Li Feng is also no longer arrogant, he is just a little unclear about the form, but he is not a fool. Looking at Xu Lang's cold expression, he faintly felt a little bad, he had offended this group of veterans a lot, and he had no mission experience, and he was also panicked at the moment.

He is still like this, and the other four newcomer executors are even more so, listening to Xu Lang's tone, it will be ruthlessly abandoned if it has no effect, and the cold sweat suddenly fell, and some of them couldn't accept the cruel reality.

But there is one person who is gradually calming down in this urgent situation, and is not overwhelmed by fear. This person is the last executor, Zhu Zixing.

He was originally just a courier, but later won a lottery ticket for a three-day tour of the scenic spot, so he sadly entered this newspaper. The whole person is extremely ordinary, there are no outstanding characteristics, and he is a bit of a wretch, but there is an advantage, that is, the ability to be obedient is strong.

Don't look at this characteristic in ordinary life, it doesn't play a role, and it even seems a little derogatory, but in the environment of the newspaper, this characteristic has changed. Zhu Zixing's super adaptability made him the fastest to break free from panic. Although he is usually a coward, he can always burst out with unimaginable strength in the face of adversity.

Looking at the performance of several newcomers, Cheng Guoguo shook his head, and pretended to be old-fashioned and sighed: "Alas, the son can't be taught. ”

He Xiao saw that what should have been said was almost done, so he announced the adjournment of the meeting.

Zhang Qingyu followed Xu Lang out of the conference room, Xu Lang also deliberately glanced back at Yan Yan, wondering in his heart, doesn't he usually go with me?

Yan Yan kept his eyes closed, and the people around him were all gone, and he didn't move, as if he had thought of something, and kept frowning.

Zhang Qingyu was beside Xu Lang and said quietly: "Brother Xu, are you sure about this mission?" ”

Xu Lang didn't look at her, and said calmly: "Who dares to say that you can be sure to survive in the mission?" I'll try my best. ”

Zhang Qingyu lowered her head, hiding the worry in her eyes, since the last mission, she always remembered in her dreams Xu Lang's gentle face when he proposed to her, although there were screams and horrors on both sides, but that face gave her enough warmth.

Zhang Qingyu believes in fate, it is fate to meet Xu Lang here, and it is also fate to propose and confess in the same mission, she is not a brave girl, but she is willing to wait until she dies in the hands of evil spirits.

If you are connected because of the newspaper, then you will also end up because of the newspaper.

Xu Lang didn't know the amazement in the heart of the girl next to him at this time, and his mind was now on the task. This mission is somewhat similar to the ghost building mission I performed, and it is just a survival mission.

In fact, Xu Lang does not have too many worries about this mission, one is because the implementation period is relatively long for 3 days, and the crisis should not be too big until the last moment; The second is that there are eight people participating this time, and once there is a police officer, there can also be people to disperse the pursuit of evil spirits.

The only thing he has no bottom about is that the difficulty is doubled. I wonder how the difficulty will increase, is it because the path of life is more obscure or the evil spirit's ability is beyond imagination? The first point is a little better, if it is the second one, it will be terrifying.

In fact, the two missions Xu Lang performed, the first time was thrilling, and the second time was incredible. But the abilities of these two evil spirits are not too terrifying, and the evil spirits are completely unimaginable beings of human beings, and imagination alone is not enough to understand them.

Everything can only be seen in the mission, Xu Lang shook his head and didn't continue to think about it.

After returning to the room, Xu Lang stayed in a bowl of instant noodles, turned on the computer, and stored all the past mission reports before, it was very convenient to study again, and he directly looked at the survival tasks.

was reading, there was a knock on the door, Xu Lang put down his chopsticks and opened the door, and Yan Yan was again.

But seeing Yan Yan standing at the door with a very serious face, his face was heavy as if he was facing a great enemy, Xu Lang, who didn't know the situation, was a little surprised, and hurriedly invited into the room.

Yan Yan sat on the chair and didn't speak, smoking a cigarette by himself, as if thinking about something. Xu Lang didn't care about him, and looked at the information while eating noodles.

After a while, Yan Yan suddenly sighed.

Xu Lang realized that he might have something to say to himself, put his face down and wiped his mouth, and looked at him.

Yan Yan's face was ugly, his brows furrowed into a pimple, and he said faintly: "Something is going to happen to the newspaper." ”

Xu Lang was a little confused, but Yan Yan's appearance seemed to be quite serious, and he pushed his glasses and asked, "What did you find?" ”

Yan Yan continued to smoke again, and said slowly: "You came late, and I don't know some things before." ”

"In fact, the mission report has always been passed down from generation to generation, not only we have this habit, but the veterans who were wiped out before us have this habit, and it has been left to He Xiao."

"The newspaper changed in May, and the difficulty doubled. It occurred to me that I had seen a report from a previous generation of veterans who had seen their staff plummeting after a spike in the late stages, struggling with one mission at a time, and then all of them were wiped out in an unsolvable mission. ”

"He Xiao is the newspaper that entered at the end of the last generation."

Xu Lang understood what Yan Yan meant, he said that the newspaper would increase the difficulty of the task every once in a while to brush off the number of employees, and finally use an unsolvable task to complete the purge and open the next generation of executive employees.

"You suspect we're at this point now?"

Yan Yan smoked a cigarette and was at a loss: "That's what I can't figure out, according to He Xiao, although the number of veterans of the previous generation is not large, there are more than 40 mission reports left!" ”

Xu Lang subconsciously continued: "And we don't have more than 20 copies now!" ”

"That's right, we haven't experienced a certain number yet, but the newspaper has already purged us, and I don't understand the ...... of this strange change."

Yan Yan said this, but looked at Xu Lang with a little deep meaning.

Xu Lang, who lowered his head and pondered, didn't notice his gaze, and was a little puzzled: "No, since you are destined to purge employees, isn't the rule that you can leave after completing fifteen tasks?" ”

Yan Yan smiled and said, "Who told you this rule?" ”

"He Xiao"

"Who did He Xiao listen to?"

"The previous generation of veterans ......" Xu Lang realized that there were not many things, and the previous generation of veterans who told He Xiao this rule had all died, since they had not completed it, where did they hear this rule?

Xu Lang looked at Yan Yan, who suddenly smiled, as if he was not worried about not being able to leave at all, and asked suspiciously: "You don't seem to feel distressed at all?" ”

Yan Yan smiled lightly: "I have long doubted the authenticity of this rule. But I'm not too worried about the way out. ”

"First of all, why should the newspaper purge its staff, there must be some people who threaten its existence, so it must be strangled in the cradle; Secondly, the method of newspaper purging is nothing more than a task, which increases the difficulty again and again, but the last survivors still pose a threat to it, so as a last resort, the unsolved task is released. But what if the unsolvable task is over? ”

Xu Lang's train of thought continued to extend with Yan Yan's words, and then he said what he thought in his heart: "At that time, we may be able to get in touch with the core of the newspaper, or we may be able to get out of the control of the newspaper. But either way, we're all invincible! ”

Yan Yan extinguished the cigarette with a smile and nodded: "Yes, but the premise of everything is that we have to live again and again." ”

He walked to Xu Lang's side, put his hand on Xu Lang's shoulder and said, "This mission, there should be no problem for you, pay more attention to the nameless, I can't guess this person." ”

Xu Lang glanced at Yan Yan calmly, at this time he had already opened the door, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly turned his head and said, "Don't always eat instant noodles, it's not healthy." ”

Xu Lang couldn't cry or laugh, Yan Yan said that this person was a little moody, he didn't like to joke but always said some cold jokes, which was very embarrassing.

Time passed day by day, Xu Lang's room was much quieter, except for Zhang Qingyu's greeting once during the period, finally no one bothered anymore.

Xu Lang can be said to be recuperating these days, and his state has reached its peak.

Time came to the day of the mission in a blink of an eye, at 10 o'clock in the evening, Xu Lang packed his backpack and prepared some routine items and emergency items, Xu Lang's habit is to be prepared, and he is always fully armed when he goes out, which is also the embodiment of his cautious character.

Ten minutes later, I went downstairs, and the sofa on the first floor was already full of people, and He Xiao and Yan Yan were sitting on the first row of sofas, because now there are more sofas, and they can sit completely open.

In order to show respect, the employees let He Xiao and Yan Yan, two top veterans, in the first row, although Yan Yan didn't care about this, but next to his usual seat, no one wanted to sit, so there was no change.

He Xiao was a little happy in his heart, this is a formalist guy, Tumu is vain, but in fact, he has no real material except for the position of captain.

Xu Lang was the last to arrive, he was the last one on every mission before, so this time he deliberately went downstairs two hours early, but he didn't expect others to be more anxious than him.

Seeing that everyone on the sofa was looking at him, he calmly walked to Yan Yan's side and sat down, and gave Yan Yan a cigarette.

Seeing the three people on the first row of sofas, the employees behind them fell into whispers. He Xiao, Yan Yan, and Xu Lang became the three giants of the newspaper at this time.

Although Xu Lang's qualifications are not as good as the top two, and even less than Cheng Guoguo and Mo Ye and others, his performance is too outstanding, and he forms the same team as He Xiao, so no one has anything to say if he is among the leaders.

Of course, this is also because Wu Cheng, Mo Ye and others either have other plans or are indifferent to fame and fortune.

But now everyone knows that He Xiao and Xu Lang are on the same team, which is different from Yan Yan. But Xu Lang seems to have become friends with Yan Yan, and he is much closer to He Xiao, which makes many people in the rear who don't know the truth wonder.

The time passed in their respective discussions, and in a blink of an eye it was close to 12 midnight.

Xu Lang, Cheng Guoguo, Nameless, Jiang Hui, Li Feng, Lu Xiaozhi, Ruan Fei, and Zhu Zixing, these 8 people, stood in the middle of the hall, among which the seniors were relatively calm, only a few newcomers had begun to sweat and tremble, only Zhu Zixing was slightly better, but his face was also pale and scary.

Xu Lang glanced at it and retracted his gaze, thinking in his heart: "Nameless, even the newspaper calls him nameless, is this really his name?" ”

Just as he was thinking about it, suddenly a long white light surrounded the 8 people, immediately surrounding them, and disappeared out of thin air in front of everyone's eyes in less than a second.

The large projection screen in front of everyone in the hall flickered a few times and suddenly lit up.

Yan Yan stared at the pitch-black projection screen, and the picture slowly pushed closer from far to near, it was a castle with 4 floors, standing abruptly on the cliff of a barren mountain, like a beast waiting for its prey in the dark night.

At this moment, the camera is focused on a window in the castle, and an old man with white hair and loose skin suddenly shows a gloomy smile at everyone in front of the screen, and every viewer has a bad chill in their hearts, which is a horror that penetrates people's hearts.
