"Attention, suspected high-risk target [Hongye] has been confirmed to appear near Binhai City, and has already landed."
Song Xian looked at the information sent to his dilapidated Nokia phone, his brows furrowed.
The thing he feared most had, in the end, inevitably happened.
Because the last known location of that [card] was Binhai City, these dangerous individuals have appeared one after another. Including the now confirmed [Hongye], there have been 3 high-risk targets and 7 dangerous observation targets.
Furthermore, those who accompanied these individuals are also highly likely to be Reincarnators whose identities have not been confirmed.
Binhai City suddenly gained many unstable factors.
Luoshui noticed her Master's worried expression and carefully offered him coffee.
"Master, is there anything you need help with?"
She blinked her eyes, seemingly hinting that Song Xian could leverage some of her family's connections.
But Song Xian only rubbed his temples. Although the Luo family was very influential, when dealing with these monsters, the army could only be the last resort, not a conventional weapon.
Only power that was rarely displayed could truly deter people.
Once the army and the Reincarnators clashed head-on, allowing the Reincarnators to test what level of intensity could cause how much impact on the existing order, chaos would inevitably occur.
The reason East Xia was stable, the reason it hadn't devolved into a paradise for shooting-specialist Reincarnators like the Free Federation, was precisely because it always kept its power hidden.
Every Reincarnator who attempted to challenge the order in East Xia was ultimately killed, greatly deterring those madmen.
Coupled with what could be considered the world's strictest gun control measures, East Xia was arguably the worst place for shooting-specialist Reincarnators to operate.
It's just that this time, the ones who came were all difficult individuals to deal with.
Tap, tap.
The office door was knocked, and both of them looked up to see Director Wang's helpless face appear at the doorway.
Song Xian didn't say much, just put down his coffee, stood up, and walked out of the office.
Luoshui knew that those dangerous missions would likely fall to her Master again. She looked around the office. Although there were a few colleagues who were said to possess special abilities like her Master, they were all looking down at this moment, minimizing their presence.
As Song Xian reached the doorway, he suddenly remembered something and turned back, saying,
"Luoshui, I might be quite busy in the next few days. If there's any situation with Bai Cangshu, you'll have to make the on-the-spot judgment."
Luoshui's eyes widened, unable to believe that such a task was being entrusted to her alone. But seeing the looks from others, she held back her panicked expression, nodded, and sat down.
She comforted herself,
"Bai Cangshu is just an observation target, just an observation target… It's fine."
Outside the office, Director Wang, who knew a little of the inside story, sighed helplessly.
"Song Xian, you know that our department is still very weak right now, so I'll have to trouble you again."
Song Xian nodded, not responding.
Director Wang knew he was in the wrong, but he had no better option. In the current situation, he felt like the most despicable type of superior, constantly burdening Song Xian because he was understanding.
However, during this unprecedented period of great change, no country had a good solution, and could only rely on brave individuals like Song Xian to step forward.
Song Xian walked out of the building and drove directly towards Binhai City's port area.
Shortly after Song Xian left, before Director Wang had even settled down, his phone rang again.
"Director Wang, we just received information that the Goryeo March Conglomerate has sent a delegation to consider establishing a production line in Binhai City."
"Given the current situation, I hope you can dispatch personnel to ensure the delegation is not affected by those unstable factors."
Director Wang also felt his chronic migraine was about to flare up.
This was supposed to be a peaceful place, why had so many things suddenly happened recently?
But the March Conglomerate was one of the major players in the global chip industry. East Xia could not ignore such an industry. He reluctantly agreed.
Director Wang looked out the window. The sea was covered in dark clouds, looking like a heavy rain was about to fall.

Bai Cangshu looked at Douma's head in his hand, tried it, and found that it could still be placed in his backpack. He thought for a moment and asked tentatively,
"Does this extra head I have serve any purpose?"
Knight Girl still had her energetic smile, showing no trace of the terrifying speed and strength hidden beneath that warm and friendly exterior.
"A head that can serve as a foundation of power is a rather good item. Reincarnators can spend a certain price at certain points to integrate it into their own bodies."
"As the saying goes, a general's success is built on the bones of ten thousand soldiers. The deaths of a large number of ordinary people can create a strong individual, and the bones of a large number of strong individuals can create the strongest Reincarnator."
Knight Girl said this while nodding.
"If you don't need this head, we can also recycle it for a price of 3000 dimensional points."
Bai Cangshu immediately put away Douma's head. He knew with a moment's thought that this kind of "recycling" would surely be at an extremely low price.
Moreover, according to Knight Girl, it was likely that Reincarnators could fuse not just once when advancing from [Paper] to [Combine] level, but would have other opportunities to continue fusing materials from other strong individuals, thereby gaining more and more powerful characteristics.
These characteristics would be an important component of a Reincarnator's strength.
"Is there any way for me to continue fusing other characteristics, Miss Knight?"
Knight Girl just smiled.
See the error-free version at 1619shuba!
"I don't know about that. I only know that Reincarnators who meet the conditions will show a special radiance in my eyes."
Bai Cangshu secretly clicked his tongue. This was probably another hidden hint, just like the riddles of hidden quests deliberately set in some games.
However, even if it was a game, this Space was a multiplayer game. As everyone knows, in a multiplayer game, where there are riddles, there are naturally guides.
The only difference is how much you have to pay.
He waved his hand and turned to walk out of the shop.
Bai Cangshu checked the time. He had already spent nearly an hour in the public Space. He already knew from Black Butler that the [Cultivation Chamber] was a place specifically for rapidly training abilities, specializations, and even attributes by spending dimensional points and singularity points.
He didn't plan to use up the remaining 1 hour at this moment. He had to save time for cultivation.
Moreover, there was a more urgent matter that he was eager to attend to.
Bai Cangshu hurried to the Slum, spent 1000 dimensional points to rent a temporary stall, then hung Douma's head inside, and set it to accept offers, but required his confirmation before the transaction could proceed.
This was another kind of test. Anyone who needed this kind of head would surely be someone who knew about the special fusion method. Getting this information from buyers was the best way.
Douma's head was also a rather good material. As soon as it was hung up, it attracted a lot of attention. Bai Cangshu didn't wait and directly teleported back to his private Space and returned to the real world.
Bai Cangshu, who reappeared in the dormitory, glanced at the phone deliberately placed on the desk. Only less than five minutes had passed in real time. He pulled open the curtains and simultaneously dialed a number on his phone.
"Hello, Teacher Zhang? It's me, Bai Cangshu."
"Isn't there an international marathon competition in Haidai these two days?"
"Yes, that's right. I want to participate. You know, I'm quite good at sports, hehe. If I'm lucky, I might even bring some honor to the school."
Teacher Zhang on the other end of the phone, hearing Bai Cangshu say this, also checked the schedule. Indeed, in her eyes, sports were one of the few options where Bai Cangshu could use that monstrous strength for positive things.
She didn't refuse. Anyway, Bai Cangshu was in his third year, second semester, and had very few professional courses left.
"Do you need me to send a classmate with you… Forget it, just be careful yourself."
Teacher Zhang seemed to want to say something several times but stopped, and finally only heard the dial tone on the phone.
Bai Cangshu hung up the phone, feeling quite good. He opened his computer, inserted the storage device he had taken from Evans's backpack, and skillfully opened a website called "Silk Road," starting to use money to reduce the difficulty of obtaining information.
By evening, a list of personnel from the [Haidai Energy Group] appeared on Bai Cangshu's computer.
Bai Cangshu looked at the list and didn't find [Lu Ziyang]'s name, but soon, he smiled.
"Lu Ziyang, LZY… Lu Zeyu…"
"Vincent, this is a rather fatal bad habit."
Thanks to the recommendation from the great Chang Shi.
