The Returning Teammates

Lin Nieran shook his head, bringing his thoughts back to the present.

This Playing Card- Weird Object possesses powerful and diverse abilities, including offense, support, and control, and can also target supernatural entities. Each of its four abilities is highly practical.

Although such a balanced ability may result in a lack of explosive power in each ability, making it quite mediocre, this does not detract from its excellence.

But Lin Nieran still didn't intend to keep it; the Rules it followed were all troublesome.

Leaving aside the Rules about disliking Little Rabbits and Black Cats, the second rule, disliking control and being manipulated, means that this thing is prone to getting out of control.

When people use this card, they are also manipulating and controlling it. If this thing turns around and bites them in battle, what kind of coolness does it have left?

The first point is a ticking time bomb.

Therefore, Lin Nieran did not hesitate to integrate this B-Rank Weird Object into the system. When he checked his Points, he found that he had 57,500 points.

The 50,000 points come from the Playing Card Weird Object and the 5,000 points from killing a B-Rank Weird Object, totaling 55,000. The remaining 2,500 points come from some small fry that Flower Language killed in the Weird Instance and the haul that Moonlit Night made on the road.

Judging from the current rate of increase in Points, Moonlit Night should have already reached the Lily Weird Zone.

Lin Nieran transformed the digested cat on his lap back into cards and hid them in his inner pocket. The system hadn't activated its storage space yet, so he had to keep these cards safe himself. If they fell in front of the Protagonist Group, he'd be doomed.

After doing all this, Lin Nieran turned to look at the darkening sky, and drowsiness washed over him.

With plenty of time to spare before reaching his destination, he asked the system to keep an eye on things for him, then lay down in the back seat and dozed off for a while.

Manipulating the cards also consumes his mental energy. The other cards are controlled by his personalities, so it's not too bad, but Bai Yang's cards consume more of his mental energy.

As Lin Nieran fell asleep peacefully, the live stream also shut down due to the complete end of the Instance.

In specific, already processed area networks, discussions about Bai Yang, Flower Language, Moonlit Night, and the organizations behind them were heatedly raised, and the live stream clips were analyzed frame by frame.

The identity of the organization's leader behind the three individuals has sparked unprecedented gossip among the public.

Some people have brought up many high-status second and third-generation individuals, and we won't discuss their motives for now, but there are always plenty of people watching the spectacle.

"Could these people be yet another Evil God Organization?"

"No, those Worship God are all lunatics who enjoy destroying the world. That group is purely evil; they don't dare to attack the supernatural, so they can only fight amongst themselves. This Fox Organization is different; they actually kill the supernatural!"

"The Fox Organization?"

"Yes, that's what everyone calls them. Their markings look just like a fox's."

"Haha, that matches Captain Qin Rang's nickname perfectly."

"Don't get off-topic. It's true that these people killed the supernatural beings and saved people, but that Flower Language supernatural being is really strange. The way it looks at everyone is so gloomy, and I have a bad feeling about it."

"Anyone who kills a monster is a good person, regardless of whether it's a monster or a human. If they help me kill any monsters near me, I'll kowtow to them right now."

"By the way, how do I join this organization? Are there any requirements?"

"You're reading posts again?"

Tao Yuan pushed open the door and entered. She saw a man in a crisp brown suit and black-rimmed glasses sitting on the sofa, his brows furrowed as he stared intently at the screen at the conference table. She casually walked behind him. "Watching them again?"

"Yes, I should learn more about them, since I haven't met them yet."

The man glanced at Tao Yuan. Today, she was wearing a long purple silk dress and a wide-brimmed floral hat. A few strands of pink hair fell down to her cheeks, making her look as elegant as if she were attending a high-class banquet.

"No weapon?" The man asked instinctively, glancing at the empty brace around her waist.

"My mom's coming to the meeting later." Tao Yuan sat down on the sofa, letting two strands of her pink hair fall and gently tucking them behind her ears. "You know her, if I'm carrying that Weird Object, she'll give me a hard time again."

The man nodded, his eyes still glued to the discussion thread on the screen. Tao Yuan yawned and casually picked up a book about Weird Object to pass the time.

Not long after, the door opened again, and Qin Rang and An Ying, dressed casually, entered one after the other, their mouths still full of breakfast.

"Look, Lao Wang, you definitely didn't have breakfast, did you?"

Qin Rang tossed him two large steamed buns with a smile. Wang Ding thanked him, glanced at his watch, and said, "No one showed up right on time today."

"I just brushed against the Springs of the car." Qin Rang smiled, his fox-like eyes narrowing.

"Spring?"

"An Ying?"

Everyone present was stunned for a moment, Tao Yuan was the first to realize what it meant and burst into laughter.

An Ying remembered Moonlit Night's irritating face and slapped Qin Rang on the head in annoyance.

Qin Rang, not to be outdone, launched a fierce battle of love against him.

Wang Ding watched helplessly as the two fought amongst themselves in the conference room, and quickly tucked the documents on the table into his pocket.

"It's so lively!"

A familiar, mature female voice knocked on the door, and the group instinctively looked towards the entrance.

Standing outside the door was a black-haired girl who was about 185 cm tall, with a strong and healthy build, but with a round and cute face. Behind her was Sheng Qingqiao was dressed in black.

"Sister Chu!"

The group stepped forward in surprise. Mi Chuchu walked in laughing and hugged Tao Yuan. Her hearty laughter echoed throughout the conference room.

The others knew she never had intimate contact with male objects, so they all just smiled knowingly and said, "You're finally back. You were gone for quite a while this time, over a month."

"Thank goodness you're back safe and sound. Was that Instance really that difficult?"

Mi Chuchu shook her head. "There's not much danger, it's just an Instance that tests human nature. There are a lot of really bad players involved, and they're all getting entangled in it."

"Don't talk about me, what about you guys? I heard you encountered a really difficult Instance and some amazing people. I couldn't see the live stream from inside the Instance before, you'll have to tell me about it later."

"Brother Wang is watching over there. It's a pity Bai Yang disappeared after leaving the Instance. The Authorities used the tracking Weird Object to detect his aura and energy, but they didn't react. Otherwise, if they had kept him, they could have learned more."

"I've heard Sheng Qingqiao Bai Yang the way here." Mi Chuchu patted Sheng Qingqiao, who was half a head shorter than her. Sheng Qingqiao staggered from the force of the pat and smirked as she moved away from her.

"Finally, we've got the whole team. Don't let the two of you fall behind on the next mission," Qin Rang said with a smile. "Otherwise, Old Man Ju will be asking us if we need more people again."

Wang Ding adjusted his black-rimmed glasses and said, "I've already processed all the recent documents. The new guys at the Discipline Office have all settled down, so I can go to the next Instance."

"Busy person." Mi Chuchu sat down at the conference table with Tao Yuan, casually draping her arms over the back of her chair. "I don't have Instance that require assistance right now, so I can join you guys on the next mission."
