Lu Jun had barely finished speaking when the communication device in his hand exploded with a flurry of "ding-ding-dong-dong" sounds. Message notifications rang out without end.
The first to pop up was Xie Xie's shocked and disgruntled message:
"Seriously, Brother Lu?! Am I seeing this right? Qiangu Zhangting and Long Yue are joining us too?
I can sort of understand Long Yue, since his strength is at least passable, but what right does Qiangu Zhangting have?!
What can he do besides put on airs?"
Yue Zhengyu chimed in next with a similarly disdainful complaint:
"Exactly. Our squad is at Titled Douluo level on average now. Why stuff two obvious deadweights in here? To make the game harder?"
Yue Zhengyu then switched into analysis mode:
"I'd bet a year of my future allowance that this is political maneuvering!
The Qiangu Family must have pulled some strings and forcibly shoved their useless young master in here, either to pad his résumé or because they have some other agenda!"
Long Chen appeared and raised a question:
"What about Long Yue? What's his deal? He doesn't seem to be from the Qiangu Family."
Yue Zhengyu replied quickly, his words carrying some uncertainty:
"Long Yue? No idea. His background feels kind of mysterious. But who cares? He's probably another big shot's connected kid or illegitimate son, right?
Damn it, isn't this just making our upcoming operation harder for no reason?"
He then changed the subject to their current mission.
"And don't forget, we'll be following Lu Jun to wipe out the remaining forces of the Green Skull Organization.
Sure, Lu Jun made the biggest contribution. He gathered the crucial intelligence and directly led the Spirit Pagoda in an all-in assault that nearly wiped out their headquarters, leaving the Green Skull Organization badly crippled..."
At that
