Chapter 9 Zhao Kongcheng: After we deal with Ghost Face King, I'll treat you to a meal.

Si Xiaonan added to Leng Xuan's statement: "He has a rather cold personality; he's our team's long-range firepower support."

Zhao Kongcheng: "I am the guardian of Squad 136."

After everyone had finished introducing themselves, Chen Muyi continued, "These are all the members of our 136th Squad. Welcome to the team."

Liu Lang nodded and said to everyone, "Hello, my name is Liu Lang, and this is my master, Lei Yingdian..."

Lei nodded to everyone, which was his way of greeting them.

“We’re all busy right now. If you have any questions about joining the team, you can ask the girl with the high ponytail,” Chen Muyi said, pointing to Hongying.

"Hongying!"

"Alright, Captain... You can rest assured that they're in my hands." Hongying patted her chest and said.

Chen Muyi continued to explain: "There is one last thing. We Night Watchmen are a semi-military organization, so all new members must participate in a year-long intensive training before officially joining the Night Watchmen."

"So you can only be considered temporary members of our team for now."

"Training?"

“Yes.” Chen Muye nodded in affirmation.

Liu Lang had a problem with that, "Captain, it's fine if you let me participate in the training camp... but please let my master participate too."

Hmm...isn't this a bit too much of a bully?

"Any newcomer to the Night's Watch, no matter who they are, must undergo a year of intensive training, learning various skills such as hand-to-hand combat, firearms, and the use of forbidden artifacts." Wu Xiangnan, who had been "frustrated" for a long time, said decisively, "There has never been an exception since the establishment of the Night's Watch."

Liu Lang had already given a very good reminder, so since that's the case... Liu Lang didn't offer any further explanation.

When does the training camp start?

"In September, a month from now, until you finish the training camp, you will only be considered a temporary member of our team."

At this moment, Hongying walked up to Liu Lang and Lei Yingdian and said gently, "Little brother Liu Lang and little sister Lei Yingdian..."

Before she could even utter the word "sister," Lei Yingdian's gaze forced her to swallow it back.

"Hongying, don't shout if you don't understand! It's not even certain who's older or younger between you and those two!" Chen Muye sighed and continued, "You were injured when you fought the masked man yesterday, so don't come out with us today. Take those two and familiarize yourself with our team first."

"What right do you have to tell me what to call you? You went on a mission without me, so can't I even get to know the newbies?" Hongying pouted her bright red lips, then said gently, "Don't worry, Liu Lang and Lei Yingdian! Now that you're part of our team, I'll definitely take care of you!"

Looking at Hongying, who was just as beautiful as described in the original work, Liu Lang smiled and replied, "Then I'll leave it to Sister Hongying."

"He's a temporary member! He's not a regular member yet!"

“It’s all the same, it’s all the same…” Hongying waved her hand, looking indifferent ╮(╯_╰)╭.

"How long has it been since our team got any new members? We finally got two, and you're already complaining? Be careful, Liu Lang and the others might not come to our 136 team after the training camp."

Wu Xiangnan agreed, saying, "That's true. In recent years, the chances of Cangnan City being 'mysterious' have been increasing. Our team really needs new recruits, and it would be best to recruit that Seraphim agent from yesterday as well."

"Is it that serious?" Chen Muye murmured to himself.

However, after Chen Muyi and Liu Lang finished discussing the issue of joining the Night Watch and gave their introductions, Wu Xiangnan stood next to Chen Muyi.

So he heard it all clearly.

"You're always just fighting and killing every time you show up, aren't you? You're getting less and less involved in other things, okay?" Wu Xiangnan complained. "You just dump everything on me... All you're responsible for is killing 'mystery,' of course you don't know anything."

Since his death in the War of Gods ten years ago, Chen Muye has lived on in another form through Lin Qiye's [Mortal God Realm].

However, he has been using the forbidden realm [Black Impermanence] to suppress [Shiva's Wrath] through the Yama Palace. Over the past ten years, the power of [Shiva's Wrath] has been growing, while his strength has been getting weaker and weaker, making it increasingly difficult to suppress.

So a long time ago, Chen Muyi had been delegating his watchman duties, except for some key tasks, to other members.

As the vice-captain, Wu Xiangnan naturally did the most work.

So when he heard Wu Xiangnan say that, he couldn't refute it. "I call this training you, how can you say I'm a hands-off manager! I haven't even said anything about you yet. Yesterday, there were three of us, and you and Lao Zhao were tasked with persuading the Seraphim's agent to join our Night Watch, and what did you two do... you just let them go!?"

"The most crucial thing is that I don't even know their names!"

Zhao Kongcheng said at the opportune moment, "I know his name, it's Lin Qiye!"

Wu Xiangnan and Chen Muyi both looked at him at the same time, and asked excitedly in unison, "You found him?!"

Goodness, no wonder they've been colleagues for so many years, their tacit understanding... their compatibility is so good it's making Lao Zhao totally EMO.

Zhao Kongcheng stammered, "I...I only know his name."

"How did you know his name if you couldn't find him?" Wu Xiangnan asked, having pretended to be annoyed all morning about this.

After all, it was he who let Lin Qiye go.

He really couldn't... couldn't face that boy and continue to ask him to join the Night's Watch.

However, he also understood what a divine agent of the 003 sequence meant.

So he chose to keep quiet.

I never expected that Zhao Kongcheng, that roughneck, would actually know his name?

Yesterday he was so busy trying to persuade him to join the Night's Watch that he didn't even bother to ask about this.

Zhao Kongcheng chuckled sheepishly, “That’s easy. Wasn’t that kid wearing the No. 2 Middle School uniform yesterday? I went to the entrance of No. 2 Middle School at six o’clock this morning and waited there, but I didn’t find that kid. Instead, I found Liu Lang.”

Liu Lang nodded and agreed, "That's right. I found Old Zhao at the gate of my school to bring us here."

"Lin Qiye is Liu Lang's classmate, but he hasn't come today."

Listening to Zhao Kongcheng's words, Liu Lang added in his mind: classmates who had been together for less than a day.

"Then... Captain? Should I go back to the entrance of No. 2 Middle School and wait there? Maybe I'll run into him?" Zhao Kongcheng asked tentatively.

Listening to Zhao Kongcheng's words, Chen Muyi thought about the Ghost-Faced King they were going to deal with next, nodded and said, "Then I'll leave the Seraph's agent to you. Try to get him to join the Night Watch."

Zhao Kongcheng perked up immediately, "Alright, Captain... watch closely, I'll make sure that kid joins us willingly!"

"Ah."

***

Hongying asked, "By the way, Liu Lang, what grade are you in this year?"

"I'm a junior in high school this year, so what?"

Hongying's delicate features gleamed as her eyes darted around before she asked, "Which class are you in in the second year of high school? When I was in school, I always said I was in the 18th grade... It's always been like this since I was little, it's never changed~"

Liu Lang didn't think much of it and casually said, "Grade 11 (2), but I'm not as lucky as you, Sister Hongying, whose class number is always near the front. Is this also part of testing one's spiritual realm?"

"Oh, no, I was just asking, it's nothing."

Once she was a little further away from Liu Lang, Hongying picked up her phone and sent a message to Zhao Kongcheng.

"Old Zhao, I found out for you... It's Class 2 of Grade 11. Go check it out."

"Thanks! I'll treat you to dinner after we deal with the Ghost-Faced King."

"Old Zhao, that's great! Then it's settled!"

"OK, ????"

"Wow, Lao Zhao, you can even use emoticons! ヽ( ?? ?)?!!!"

"My daughter and I learned this, isn't it cute (???)"

"That's for sure, ??????."

The captain and his team are completely out of touch with the times. Their messages are always just dry text, without even an emoji.

Old Zhao, when are you going to take us to see your daughter? We haven't seen her in so long! (^▽^ )」

"See? I'll take you guys with me next time I have the chance. Q_Q"
