Chapter 84 Important tasks
After waiting for nearly half a month, Liang Wu completed a total of seven tasks before and after Tang Muwan finally received the news from the Dark Night Headquarters.
Han Miaoyin had previously asked Tang Muwan not to stay at the Dark Night Headquarters, but now she sent a message asking all killers above the level of the Earth Ranking to return to the headquarters, and even named Liang Wu to go back as well.
Looking at the content of the news, Liang Wu knew that something big must have happened, so the headquarters had such a reaction.
After tidying up at the inn, Liang Wu accompanied Tang Muwan to leave the inn and headed towards the headquarters together.
There is also a picture of Liang Wu's beautiful face posted on the street, which also shows Tang Muwan's makeup look before. It can be seen that the Liu family has begun to search for Liang Wu and Tang Muwan in the city.
Maybe the Liu family didn't know the true identities of Tang Muwan and Liang Wu, and regardless of whether they killed Liu Zhengfeng or not, they should arrest these two first.
This is the usual gangster style of a big family. They would rather catch the wrong person than let him go.
After all, Liu Zhengfeng is also a famous and prestigious heir apparent of the Liu family, and his cultivation techniques are unique. In time, he will definitely become the pillar of the Liu family, and even bring glory to the Liu family.
Unexpectedly, he died in a brothel and had his head cut off.
This spread all of a sudden, and it was said that Liu Zhengfeng was jealous of other men in a brothel and was killed. This made the Liu family lose face.
No matter what aspect, they must find Liang Wu and Tang Muwan to restore the Liu family's face.
What's funny is that the Liu family searched everywhere for Liang Wu and Wu with great fanfare, but they didn't know that these two people had already met their people. Now Liang Wu has changed his disguise and changed into another appearance. Tang Muwan has changed.
After returning to her daughter's body, it would be strange for the Liu family to be able to find the two of them.
When I arrived at the Dark Night Headquarters, I saw about ten people sitting on stools in the attic hall, seemingly still waiting for someone.
These ten people were dressed in different clothes and had different body shapes. Some were male and female, some were big and some were small. The youngest was not even as old as Liang Wu. She looked about fifteen or sixteen years old and was still a girl.
The oldest one looks to be in his fifties, and his beard is slightly white.
However, among these people, the weakest are those who are in the late Qi Refining stage, half of them are in the Golden Core stage, and there are even two who have reached the middle stage of the Golden Core.
They were all masters. Liang Wu knew that calling these people here at the Dark Night Headquarters would definitely not be a simple task, and it might even be a big deal.
Tang Muwan and Liang Wu did not speak. After entering the hall, they found a seat and sat down.
In the headquarters, don't speak if you can, and don't be curious, otherwise any more words you say may lead to death.
Liang Wu had learned this before. Although he was not punished that time, on the one hand, as a newcomer, he did not understand the rules. On the other hand, with Tang Muwan, the young palace master, he would be given some face.
As a killer of the Dark Night Organization, you only need to remember two things. The rest has nothing to do with you. Even if it is urgent, there is no need to worry.
These two things are accepting tasks and handing in tasks.
You don’t need to have any contact or communication with other killers, because killers have their own circles. Regardless of their identity, they
It's just ordinary people. Once the killer comes into contact with the killer too much, it will affect his life to some extent, and then affect the mission.
On the surface, the relationship between the killer and the organization is that of employer and employee, but in the organization, there are no human rights to talk about, only obedience.
Of course, there are some exceptions, and that is the legendary special killer.
A contracted killer means that there is no relationship with the organization, but there are some particularly difficult tasks in the organization that no one can complete, so killers need to be hired from outside to complete them.
This type of specially commissioned killers are obviously very powerful, and some have even reached the Nascent Soul stage.
Killers with different levels will receive different rewards for completing tasks.
Within the organization, the rewards for all tasks at the killer level, including the following, are money, which can be divided into Yuanling coins, gold bars, bronze coins, etc.
Above the level of Killer on the Earth Ranking, excluding Killer on the Earth Ranking, you can freely choose mission rewards. Among them, the rewards for selection include spiritual coins, weapons and equipment, exercises, and martial arts. The richness of the rewards is beyond the reach of the Killer on the Earth Ranking.
Among the people at the scene, there was no special killer. According to Tang Muwan's introduction, in addition to her and Liang Wu, there were three killers on the scene who were from the Earth List, and the rest were all from the Heavenly List.
With so many Tianbang killers gathered at once, it seems that this matter is really important.
Liang Wu couldn't help but murmur in his heart, it is estimated that the task this time will be very difficult.
People are coming in one after another in the hall, and everyone who comes in is of outstanding strength, at least in the Qi refining stage.
After about half an hour, the stone door of the inner hall finally opened, and Han Miaoyin and the two envoys on the left and right walked out.
The three people came out with solemn expressions. All the killers, including the Tianbang killers, immediately stood up and lowered their heads slightly.
"Well, everyone has been waiting for a long time. The main reason why we are here today is for a very important task."
Deputy Palace Master Han Miaoyin didn't have any extra words. She went straight to the point and explained the purpose of gathering everyone this time.
Only nearly twenty people were dispatched at once, and they were all masters at the Qi refining stage and above. What exactly this mission was, made Liang Wu curious again.
Normally, the killers take on tasks individually. Like before, Tang Muwan and Liang Wu took on a task together. That was only an exception. For example, if the target was very powerful, a careful plan was needed for the killers to cooperate with each other.
For another example, if the killer himself feels that he needs help from someone to complete the task together, he can find someone to help him privately.
But in the history of Dark Night, there seems to be no mission where dozens of people are dispatched at once, unless it is a matter of life and death for the organization.
After hearing what Han Miaoyin said, everyone raised their heads and their expressions became very solemn.
After learning the lesson from the last time, Liang Wu also learned wisely this time. Although he was curious, he did not speak. He just stood in the crowd and looked at Han Miaoyin, expecting what she was going to say.
"This mission is more important and mysterious than any other mission in the past. Once you participate in it, you must cut off contact with the outside world. Therefore, in principle, everyone is not forced to accept this mission. It is just that the more people the employer requires, the more
Okay, that’s why I specially called everyone here.”
What surprised everyone was that Han Miaoyin's speaking style and tone today were surprisingly good, not at all like the Deputy Palace Master's usual tone.
majesty.
From Han Miaoyin's words, Liang Wu got two pieces of information. First, the task was not mandatory and could be accepted or not. Second, the task was rather mysterious and needed to be disconnected from the outside world. The employer must be a very powerful person.
Taking these two points together, Liang Wu had reason to believe that this time he was not going to kill someone, but maybe to protect someone.
Because if it is a murder, there is no need to work so hard and cut off contact with the outside world.
On the contrary, if it is to protect a certain character, it is much more reasonable.
The protector must be mysterious and disconnected from the outside world, which means that the protected object must have an absolutely safe environment.
Seeing that everyone seemed to understand, Han Miaoyin spoke again: "You should all understand what I mean. If there are other tasks that have not been completed, or if you are not interested in this task, please stay in the hall and wait for the time being.
Other arrangements. If you are interested in accepting this mission, you can come with me to pick up the mission supplies."
After Han Miaoyin finished speaking eloquently, she walked into the inner hall, followed closely behind her by the two envoys on her left and right without saying a word.
For such a mysterious mission, Liang Wu decided that it would definitely be interesting, and there were all high-level killers here. If he could take on this mission, I believe it would be very helpful for him to gain killer points.
After looking at each other with Tang Muwan, both of them expressed their willingness to take on this task, so they followed closely behind the two envoys on the left and right and walked into the inner hall.
Among the nearly twenty people remaining, they were silent for about ten breaths. Finally, five people followed, while the others stayed in the hall.
Judging from this, there are only seven people who accepted this mission.
Among these seven people, those five are all masters at the Golden Core stage, and only Liang Wu and Tang Muwan are at the Qi Refining stage.
After entering the inner hall, Liang Wu couldn't help but be startled.
After seeing the layout and decoration of the inner hall, Liang Wu felt as if he had entered the altar of the Demonic Cult.
I saw various kinds of bats carved on the stone walls on the left and right, some breathing fire, some spitting water. Each bat had a fierce look on its face, as if it wanted to eat people.
There are two rows of tables and chairs in the inner hall, with an aisle in the middle. The aisle leads directly to the altar. There is a large stone table on the altar. In front of the stone table is a seat carved with a huge bat. It looks like
Very eerie and terrifying.
Following the footsteps of the deputy palace master, the seven people came to the altar. Deputy palace master Han Miaoyin immediately turned around and faced everyone.
Later, Han Miaoyin's tone became serious: "Everyone, this task is very difficult. Thank you very much for accepting this task. But to be on the safe side, please swear an oath at the altar that you will never reveal anything about this task.
Just one word, are you willing?"
A task even required the method of swearing an oath at the altar, which made Liang Wu even more confused.
The oaths of cultivators are different from those of ordinary people. For ordinary people, swearing is like farting. They can turn around and deny it. No one will believe in any such thing as divine punishment anyway.
But cultivators are different. Once a cultivator swears an oath with blood, he will naturally be bound to his soul. Once he violates his oath, he will inevitably be severely injured when he goes through the tribulation in the future. In severe cases, his soul will fly away.
Therefore, for cultivators, vows must not be made casually.
