Volume 2: The Growing Flame Chapter 32 Training Base No. 1
The spacious office has floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the vast night view.
As the mysterious being in front of him gently pointed, some information flooded into his mind, and Pei Hongjing suddenly understood.
The world is falling.
Endless disasters.
Torch.
The chosen one.
"I am the one chosen by fate?"
At this moment, he didn't think that it was an awakened person who committed the crime.
It’s not like he hasn’t seen an awakened person before.
I am also familiar with the "big shots" in the Investigation Bureau.
But those wild awakened ones? They are not even worthy of carrying my shoes!
Pei Hongjing took two deep breaths and had some guesses in his mind that Xinhuo must be some kind of ancient hidden organization. Now that they have chosen him, this is definitely a great opportunity.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, both for the increasingly declining Pei Group and for his own safety and the safety of those around him.
But, as this person said and the picture shows, the future is full of dangers, and this road is even more so.
Although Pei Hongjing was looking forward to it, he was also nervous and afraid.
What does it require him to pay?
Is it money?
The Pei Group is indeed rich, and many of its industries are still abandoned. It is not a problem to use the money to support the company, but what can he get by paying this?
Of course, he didn't ask directly, but just said, "Pei Group can support the development of Xinhuo."
The mysterious existence in the golden light shook his head with a smile.
"I don't deny that the birth of Xinhuo requires some real financial support, but the real reason for choosing you is..."
"You are a man of destiny. You have potential that you haven't even discovered yet."
〔Pei Hongjing〕
[Physique: 1.3]
〔Spirit: 1.3〕
[Mystery: 0.05]
[Skills: None]
[Talent: Spending a ton of money]
—
[Explanation: The possessor of this talent has wealth far beyond that of ordinary people. At the same time, the more wealth they spend, the faster their practice (exercise, skill training) will improve. They have a unique advantage in learning and using skills that are "money-related" (referring to skills that consume a lot of resources).]
Scanning Pei Hongjing's panel, Fang You, whose body was light golden at this time, stretched out his finger and tapped lightly.
A finger in the air.
The scene in front of Pei Hongjing changed again, becoming eerie and extremely scary, but this time he was no longer just a spectator, he was experiencing it firsthand.
In this special space, I learn like a puppet.
When Pei Hongjing returned to his office, he could no longer stand and fell to the ground. But when he gradually came to his senses from the shock, he found...
I'm fine, and... I've also learned a very special ability.
The ability to see evil!
Some awakened people have such abilities, but the awakening ability is random and uncontrollable, and it cannot be passed on to others. But now, at the finger of this mysterious existence, he has learned it as if he had suddenly realized something.
It will take just one second.
His eyes were burning with awe, and he immediately said again, "Pei Group will fully cooperate with Xinhuo!"
…
The next day,
Shuizezhou State Capital, High-Speed Railway Station, South Exit.
Pei Hongjing came here with his bodyguards early in the morning.
There are many people in his Pei Group who can do this kind of reception work , and they are quite professional. Pei Group already has tourism-related businesses.
But the person we are going to receive today is from that organization... no, a strong man from our Xinhuo, a senior member who has a higher status than him.
Pei Hongjing has come this far, so of course he would not neglect any details. Not only did he attend the event in person, he also arrived much earlier than planned.
Waiting silently without any impatience.
After waiting for a while, Pei Hongjing saw the person he needed to receive.
Very eye-catching.
He was wearing a black windbreaker, black sunglasses, a mask and a beret, and was holding a long box in his hand that was much larger than a guitar case.
"Mr. Black Knife?"
"It's me."
Pei Hongjing stretched out his hand and shook Heidao's gloved hand. He smiled and said, "I am Pei Hongjing from Pei Group. Mr. Heidao, we have prepared a hotel suite for you. Would you like to take a rest first or..."
"Let's go directly to the mission location."
Pei Hongjing nodded, and at the same time, he roughly understood the character of this black knife. He said, "Please follow me."
Heidao nodded and refused the bodyguard who wanted to carry the box.
He got into a commercial vehicle carrying a black weapons box, sat in the back seat, and gently put the weapons box down.
Bang——
The business car sank slightly, visibly. The bodyguards who followed closely behind widened their eyes, looking at the long black box and then at the man in the black windbreaker. Fortunately, he was not asked to carry the box.
The driver was driving in front, and Pei Hongjing was sitting in the back seat chatting with Hei Dao.
"This time, our target is a high-end resort under our Pei Group. It is equipped with hotels, hot springs, gyms, etc. It can be used with a little renovation."
"However, there are evil spirits wandering around in that resort, and they are large-scale evil spirits."
With Pei's status and connections, they can use their connections to persuade the Investigation Bureau, or hire evil hunters themselves, and they are all capable of eliminating the evil.
However, investigators determined that there was at least one terrifying large evil creature inside the resort.
The group had to give up.
The reason for taking this resort out is that Pei family cannot use it now and there is little resistance. But it is also as he said, the resort has everything and the geographical location is not bad. It is not in the city, which can ensure privacy, but it is not far away, and the transportation is convenient, making it very convenient to travel or transport goods.
It's just a large evil...
He looked at the black knife.
Black Knife said, "Not a problem."
…
The convoy drove for more than an hour and arrived outside the Pei Group's resort.
The beautiful scenery of the mountain can be seen from afar, with quaint buildings standing on it, surrounded by clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
The scenery is still beautiful, but the resort has long ceased operations, and a lot of fallen leaves have accumulated. There are even warning signs set up in the surrounding area, and now there is no one in sight.
Pei Hongjing got out of the car, rubbed his eyes, and looked towards the resort not far away.
There was a faint, foul wind floating in the air, and it seemed to be very thick in the distance, but he could not see clearly.
It turned out to be something sinister.
Plural evil.
He brought a lot of bodyguards with him when he traveled, and this time he also called on two security consultants hired by the Pei Group at a high price - two awakeners.
But they looked at the resort with hesitation and fear.
"Mr. Pei, this is different from what is stated in the contract."
"Yes, yes, we are only responsible for security. We don't do the business of eliminating evil spirits in the wild. There must be some large evil spirits in this resort."
"Boss Pei, for safety reasons you can't enter this place."
The two awakened ones advised.
To deal with a large evil? This is absolutely impossible, there is no alternative.
Pei Hongjing ignored them and just looked at the black knife.
Heidao raised his head and took a look from afar, "Six Guixie, two two-star."
He put down the long black box, unlocked it with a click, picked up an incredibly exaggerated big knife, and walked towards the resort step by step.
