Chapter 104: Assassination

Cultivation is actually addictive, Shen Mu hid in the cultivation room for three whole days, and the matter that was originally scheduled to take over the earl's property in Beiyang Province the next day was also forced to be delayed. The people below didn't dare to disturb the new boss, so they could only deliver meals on time every day and provide what Shen Mu needed.

Shen Mu also thoroughly experienced what it means to be a boss, and he didn't have to bother with anything else, the only thing he had to do was to cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate again.

After three days of sleeplessness, he finally reached the preconditions of the Healing Ring, and by the way, he also learned the Divine Sword. In addition, he condensed three first-level mana crystals in his rest, if it weren't for the fact that he had other things to deal with, he really wanted to soak in this high-level cultivation room now.

After signing a few documents, and without even having time to read the terms carefully, this palatial hotel, along with several industries in Beiyang Province, fell under Shen Mu's name.

To be precise, it was Shen Mu, not Wu Hao. The earl is not a loss of old rivers and lakes, and he is extremely thoughtful. He knew that Shen Mu's true identity was now inconvenient, so under his operation, 'Shen Mu', a person who originally didn't exist, appeared out of thin air. All of the properties he gave were in Shen Mu's name, and they had nothing to do with Wu Hao.

At the same time, in line with the principle of sending the Buddha to the Western Heavens, the earl also left Shen Mu with a few people who could take care of it. Among them, the person in charge of the affairs of Beiyang Province is called Wenshuang, a middle-aged woman in her thirties, who is not top-notch and beautiful, but has a charming temperament unique to a mature woman, and is shrewd and capable.

When she received that all the properties were transferred, Wen Shuang was actually very different, and she didn't know why the big boss behind the scenes would suddenly give such a large fortune to a teenager? In the past few days, she learned that Shen Mu had been cultivating, so she had been waiting under the hotel without leaving half a step.

After eating at noon, she accompanied Shen Mu around several industries in the city. The Earl's inheritance to Shen Mu is still quite large, in addition to this hotel, there are three nightclubs and two trading houses. And this is only on the surface, and there is also a black market trading center and a cross-border domain teleportation array in the dark.

It's really a coincidence, this cross-border domain teleportation array is actually the one that Shen Mu used when they first entered the Mixed Yuan Realm, but he didn't expect to come here again and become the boss here. It's really impermanence!

"Sister Wen, that's it! In the future, you will still be responsible for Beiyang's affairs, just report the accounts to me once a month, and contact me at any time if you have any other questions......! If you can't find me one day, you can find my sister! I'll give you her contact information. "Shen Mu is really not good at enterprise management or anything. Since the earl has left people to himself, he will not use people without suspicion.

"Okay, boss, do you have any other orders?" Wen Shuang replied.

"Nothing else, that is, the batch of goods I brought should be disposed of as soon as possible within a month, and then I will get an anonymous bank card, no matter how much money I buy, I will transfer 40% to it. "Although I have suffered a loss, Shen Mu really thanked the earl. It not only solves the problem of him entering and exiting the Mixed Metaverse, but also gives him a channel to prepare for the sale of materials, saving countless troubles and uncertainties at once.

Rejecting the car arranged by Wenshuang, Shen Mu still traveled alone and took the bus back to Fenglin County. When I got out of the car, I didn't even go home, so I went straight to the Black Star Fighting Arena.

Today, Shen Mu no longer needs this salary in the fighting arena. The property that the Earl gave him brought him millions of net income every month, compared to the more than 10,000 yuan a month in the fighting arena, which was not enough to do anything. But he still needs to come here, because this is the only place where he can steal a lot of skills from different classes, especially now that he needs to start collecting and stockpiling Level 2 skills.

Since the opening of the Black Star Arena, it has been completely regular, and in the past, it was in a hurry to open and there was a shortage of people in various positions. But now there are plenty of manpower, and there are more than two people in each position on duty, so the head manager is naturally more and more dissatisfied with Shen Mu, a guy who always asks for leave. If you want to do it, you can do it, if you don't want to do it, you can leave, and there are people who want to do it. Take half a month's leave a month, and they don't open a charity hall!

However, the fourth uncle attached more and more importance to Shen Muzhi. Shen Mu can hide it from others, but he can't hide it from him. He turned a blind eye to Shen Mu's going to the Metaverse, neither encouraged nor hindered it, and would give some convenience if necessary. Young people, it's normal to want to get ahead desperately, but it's not so normal for a first-order priest to come back alive from the Mixed Metaverse twice in a row. Especially since it had only been a few days, he had actually felt the fluctuations of magic elements that only second-order professions had in Shen Mu's body, which was even more abnormal.

"Is the young man very aggressive!It's a bit of a waste to be a healer, are you interested in coming to the expedition, I'll coordinate with you in terms of treatment!" "It's not that anyone can come back alive by breaking through the Mixed Metaverse twice in a row, the fourth uncle is very interested in Shen Mu now, and has the heart to pull him into the expedition."

Blackstar is a huge organization, and although the underground fighting arena is illegal, the expedition team it belongs to is legal, and the treatment is naturally very good. However, according to common sense, the recruitment of regular expedition teams is very strict, and they need to go through layers of selection and assessment, and people who do not have enough strength and combat experience will never be able to enter. It can also be said that in today's society, it is a decent and high-income job to be able to join a regular expedition, and many college graduates are required and rushed to get in. And judging from Shen Mu's current professional level, it is obviously not qualified enough. So the fourth uncle thinks that he is promoting Shen Mu,

He should be very happy, but the actual situation is that Shen Mu refused without even thinking about it.

"I'm sorry, Fourth Uncle. I've made an appointment with a few friends, so I won't bother your old man!" When he said this, Shen Mu knew that he couldn't work here for long. It's not because he rejected the fourth uncle, but because he has been a little bit of a starter recently.

Fortunately, only the fourth uncle noticed him now, but it won't be long before it spreads throughout the fighting arena.

It's really intriguing that a little priest can come back alive from the Mixed Metaverse twice in a row!

In the few games in the evening, Shen Mu seemed to be very active. Even if it wasn't his job, he would go to the front to help, saying that he was a little embarrassed to take a long leave, but in fact, it wasn't to steal a few more skills?

At night, he was busy until more than one o'clock in the morning, and Shen Mu was the last to get off work. After several days of cultivation and staying up late at work after a long trip, when his spirit relaxed, he suddenly felt very tired, yawning as he walked home.

Another person was killed in today's game, and his head was blown out directly in front of his eyes. But Shen Mu didn't bother to care about these anymore, took out a loaf of bread from his pocket, and took stock of tonight's harvest while eating it correctly.

Five Level 2 skills in hand. Four spells, one combat skill, but they are all relatively common skills, and nothing is particularly outstanding. Shen Mu is not discouraged, you must know that there are still many capable people in the underground fighting arena, and you can always catch a few big fish if you try a few more times.

But to put it negatively, even if you can steal some very powerful second-level skills, what can you do? Think about the earl, think about the old woman, think about the zombie youth, and the other big guys, the lowest is the strength of the seventh-order profession, and even the dead fat man who looks like himself on the surface is immortal...... What's the use of second-order skills?

Shen Mu felt that the only thing that could give him a chance to turn the tables at present was by extracting that skill 'Mana Storm'. Although it seems that this skill is a bit of a chicken rib at present, Shen Mu feels that it may be that he has not found the correct use of it, and this still needs to be explored slowly.

I thought about it all the way, and unconsciously returned to the front of my house. He opened the door and walked into the courtyard familiarly, but just as he was about to open the door, the alarm suddenly rose in his heart, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he threw himself on the ground and rolled backwards with his instinct. And almost at the same time, a spear broke through the door, like a poisonous Jiao out of a hole, leaving a series of afterimages in the air at a fast speed.

If it weren't for Shen Mu's recent increase in actual combat experience and his keen sense of murderous aura, this shot would have killed him!

Who is it? Shen Mu didn't think that Wu Shengnan was joking with him, this was definitely a long-planned assassination. Half-kneeling on the ground and looking up, he saw a figure breaking through the door of his room, dressed in black to cover his face, unable to see clearly, but looking a little fat. However, fat is fat, this person's figure dances extremely flexibly, especially the black oolong spear in his hand, when he swings it, it is a gun shadow in the sky, like a huge wave towards Shen Mu to continue to pounce.

This man's strength is so strong, it gives him a feeling of facing those old monsters in the group. The Divine Punishment and the Sword of Holy Light that were rushed out were directly shattered by the spear shadow, and they didn't even have the slightest effect. At the last critical moment, the Holy Light Guardian jumped out of Shen Mu's arms, and a Holy Light Arrow with an attack power comparable to a seventh-level combat skill struck at his front door.

This is Shen Mu's last means of saving his life. As long as the Light Guardian does not die, her buff status will always exist. This is the last time the Holy Light Guardian was summoned in the Mixed Metaverse. Shen Mu protected her very well, and kept her hidden in his chest pocket, and usually continued to increase her attack power when using healing techniques, so that she could continue to grow, and only used it as a special skill at critical moments.

But maybe Shen Mu was more unlucky, and the strength of the enemies he encountered was too strong, and the first time he used it, he faced Asaclaire, the Blood Demon Lord, and the sneak attack only caused a little minor injury. And this time, the second time he used it to save his life, he met a super master with a gun, and I saw him shake the body of the gun, and he stimulated a golden dragon-shaped battle qi, which instantly defeated the Holy Light Arrow.

Faced with this shot that came from the attack, Shen Mu found that his whole body had been surrounded by gun shadows, blocking every way he retreated, and he could only watch the head of the gun pierce into his heart.

The sharp edge pierced the heart, it really hurt! At this moment, Shen Mu realized that he was so close to death! I didn't expect that he had even broken through the mixed Metaverse twice, but finally died at his own doorstep!

"Stop!" Just when Shen Mu himself was already desperate, a coquettish voice suddenly came from behind, and then a cold light streaked across the night sky, blocking the shot for Shen Mu at the last moment.

Facing the attacker's gaze, a vigorous figure emerged from the night, wearing a crimson battle armor, holding a nearly two-meter-long war knife in his hand, his long hair flying in the wind, and his sword eyebrows were heroic. Take a closer look, who is Zhao Hongying?

"Sister Hongying?" Shen Mu was stunned at this time, he never thought that the person who saved him in the end would be Zhao Hongying.

Since the last time the building was broken, Zhao Hongying has been hiding in the field, and there has been no news for so long, as if she has disappeared. Why did he come back all of a sudden? And he was saved by such a coincidence!

Zhao Hongying stood in front of Shen Mu alone, but she didn't pay attention to him, just stared at the attacker with a war knife, and her momentum was like a hen facing an eagle guarding the chickens, not giving an inch.

The attacker also seemed annoyed that his assassination had been interrupted by Zhao Hongying, and after glaring at her fiercely, he flew towards the darkness behind him.

And Zhao Hongying didn't seem to have any intention to let him leave like this, and hurriedly left Shen Mu a 'be careful' and chased after him, and a few arrow figures completely disappeared into the night.

The two of them chased after each other, and finally the attacker stopped in a small alley where there were no people. Zhao Hongying then chased after her, and the first thing she said after stopping was that she was very dissatisfied and asked, "Why did you kill him?" ”

"Because he knows something he shouldn't know!" replied the attacker.

"But he saved my life!" Zhao Hongying shot back strongly.

"So what? As long as it's an unstable factor, you can't keep him. The attacker took off his hood, revealing a very ordinary cheek. But if there are familiar people here, they will definitely be surprised and scream, because as a good old man in the police station, it is really hard to imagine that Zhao Mingxiang still has such a side.

That's right, this attacker is none other than Zhao Hongying's father, Zhao Mingxiang.

Although Zhao Hongying repeatedly assured him that Shen Mu would never betray her, from a father's point of view, he would never tolerate any uncertain threats. After all, the stakes are too big to allow for the slightest mistake.
