Chapter 55 The Time Has Come!
Night falls.
Meng Chengcheng, Yingdiya, Chen Feng, Zhou Yi, and Jiang Die strolled under the streetlights.
India rubbed her forehead. She had only invited one person, so why did everyone come out?
Jiang Die explained her purpose: "I want to join your team."
India was puzzled: "A newcomer with your potential certainly won't lack teams."
"But I've done the statistics, and among all the teams willing to recruit trainee agents, you are the best choice."
"How did you know?"
"I went to the archives and checked the attendance records for the past few years. Only your squad hasn't had any deaths."
"Of course, with my prophetic abilities, how could it possibly backfire?" Being praised so highly by the strongest newcomer, India was also a little happy, and didn't forget to take a jab at Meng Chengcheng.
"A petty person who has achieved success," Meng Chengcheng muttered to herself.
India looked at Zhou Yi: "And you, do you also want to join us?"
Zhou Yi said in a simple, honest voice, "I'm hungry! I want to eat!"
"Okay, okay, I understand."
It really is a single-celled organism.
India then looked at her arch-enemy, a veiled smile on her face, and said, "Chengcheng, you just got back, don't you need to report on your mission?"
Trying to steal my thunder? No way!
Meng Chengcheng pulled Chen Feng along, and, playing along, said, "That's right, Xiao Hu, let's go back and write a report."
India's smile froze, and she could only say, "It's so late, you can still report tomorrow."
After walking for a while, Chen Feng couldn't help but ask, "Is the restaurant we're going to nearby?"
India denied it, saying, "It's not close."
Chen Feng shrugged: "Then why do we have to walk?"
Zhou Yi asked innocently, "Walking? Is that not allowed?"
Chen Feng was momentarily speechless: "It's not impossible, but I see there's a subway station right next door?"
Jiang Die explained, "Cihang subway station has an exit number eight, which is one of the largest gathering places for ghost stories in the city."
Chen Feng scratched his head: "In that case, taking the bus is fine too."
"The last bus in Cihang City at midnight is not for the living, it's for the dead."
"Tram, can't I at least take the tram?"
"Are you sure? It's 11 p.m., and there's a rumor that if you take the tram at this time, you'll be taken to a ghost station."
Chen Feng never imagined that getting a late-night snack would be so troublesome. If he still had the check-in system or the Great Philanthropist system, he would have triggered at least four tasks by now: "If all else fails, spend some money to hire a taxi."
"There is a yokai called Wanyūdō that disguises itself as a taxi wheel and takes passengers to secluded places to harm them."
Is this what you mean?
Chen Feng pointed to a taxi parked in front of them. On its wheel was a bald, extremely ugly old man's head, staring intently at the crowd.
India's smile froze instantly: "That's it."
This is Cihang City. Even going out to buy a pack of cigarettes, you can encounter five different kinds of monsters.
Chen Feng was already used to it.
Meng Chengcheng's face turned pale: "I'm suddenly not hungry anymore, you guys eat."
India lowered her voice, reaching a consensus with her arch-enemy for the first time: "I suddenly remembered that I need to lose weight recently, so how about another day?"
Chen Feng felt it would be too embarrassing to slink back like this: "With monsters right in front of us, as agents fighting monsters, is all we can do just turn around and run?"
Jiang Die warned, "Are you sure? Wheel Monk is a B-rank monster with the ability to petrify, devour souls, and manipulate flames. What we see is just a disguise. Its true form is over three meters tall. It can run us over as easily as running over a speed bump."
Oh, if that's what you're going to say.
Chen Fengyi said righteously, "My touch isn't good today, let's give it a break for now."
Although the late-night snack plan failed, everyone's trip wasn't in vain. Jiang Die successfully latched onto a powerful figure, Yingdiya gained the strongest new member for the team, and Meng Chengcheng prevented the simp from being snatched away.
Even Chen Feng has obtained a lot of information about the monsters. When he draws the mission system again, these cold monsters will turn into warm points.
Only Zhou Yi made a wasted trip, and his stomach was growling.
But does anyone care?
No!
"If I take down that wheel, can I finally eat?"
Zhou Yi pulled a yellow handkerchief from his pocket, took two steps forward, but seeing the will-o'-the-wisps on the wheels and the dead man's head that was neither crying nor laughing, he finally turned his head and ran after the crowd: "Never mind."
Chen Feng, who was standing to the side, chuckled: "This kid isn't stupid, heh."
In the following days.
Chen Feng first attended the mission briefing with Meng Chengcheng.
After learning the truth, the organization raised the difficulty of the Horror Park mission from B to A.
Then, Chen Feng used the organization's archives to look up two things.
The first thing, of course, is information about Dean Niu. Chen Feng remembers how the other party blocked the save point and killed him three times. He must avenge this.
After successfully logging in on the computer, Chen Feng entered the name "Niu Mian" and quickly found it:
Monster Name: Ox-Faced
Genre: Ghost Stories
Threat Level: A
[Introduction: Director of the Fourth Mental Hospital, leader of the Holy Ox Cult, who routinely brainwashes the citizens of Cihang City into becoming his followers under the guise of promoting the end times.]
[Data 1: Victims killed by cow masks were often found charred corpses]
You need to be at least a D-level agent to access document 2.
. . . . . .
You need to be at least an A-level agent to access document 5.
As a trainee agent, Chen Feng's privileges only allow him to unlock the most basic files. Therefore, in order to obtain more intelligence, Chen Feng sought out Meng Chengcheng, hoping to get her help.
"Chengcheng, do you know any A-level special agents?"
After learning of Chen Feng's thoughts, Meng Chengcheng shook her head: "I don't know them. Even if I did, they wouldn't help you. That's against the rules, and if the organization finds out, you'll be expelled!"
This explicit refusal did not discourage Chen Feng, because he keenly noticed: "You said they wouldn't help me, which means you're willing to help me?"
Meng Chengcheng hesitated and said, "This..."
Chen Feng: "If being discovered by the organization is a violation, then not being discovered means it's not a violation."
"That's just sophistry!"
"Chengcheng, I'm asking you, do you want to be an A-level special agent?"
"Of course I want to."
Meng Chengcheng just learned today that Yingdiya has been promoted to C-level. The thought of being called a genius but being left behind by Yingdiya is driving her crazy.
"That's the right thing to do. Tell me, what's the best way to get you promoted to A-level?"
Meng Chengcheng pondered for a moment: "Besides accumulating experience little by little and killing a thousand fake humans, the only other way is to complete an A-level mission. You wouldn't be thinking of that, would you?"
"That's right, I plan to take you on an A-level mission."
Chen Feng knew that his identity had been exposed after he displayed his strength that day.
The matter of the avatar system must not be revealed.
Fortunately, in the past few days, Chen Feng had learned that all sorts of strange people exist in this world. So he lied to Meng Chengcheng, saying that he was a psychic who could turn the dead into clones: "I believe that you are smart enough to know that I am not Xiao Hu. That's right, Xiao Hu died a long time ago, but don't misunderstand, I didn't kill him."
Meng Chengcheng wanted to say, "I already knew that."
But before she could say it, she changed her mind and said, "I believe you won't lie to me."
Absolute trust and dependence, a sweet, coquettish tone, and big, blinking eyes.
If Liu Xiaohu had used this honey trap, he'd probably be completely smitten.
But what Chen Feng was thinking was, "She believed it so easily? It seems that the so-called genius girl isn't that smart after all."
If Meng Chengcheng knew what Chen Feng was thinking, she would probably faint from anger.
Which A-level mission are you planning to take?
Chen Feng had already decided on his next destination: "Crazy Zoo".
Type "Horror Park" into the computer in the archives and press Enter. Sure enough, as a check-in location on par with Horror Park, Crazy Zoo is also an A-level task.
【Saving the Biological Researcher - QP】
According to the mission description, in order to obtain first-hand information, biological researcher Mr. QP entered the Mad Zoo under the escort of a Class B special agent team. There was no news of him for six months. The organization had assumed that he and his team had been wiped out, but the prophet INDA predicted that researcher QP was still alive, so this mission was created.
"India's divination isn't that accurate. Maybe the QP researcher is already dead. We'd be wasting our time," Meng Chengcheng suggested to Chen Feng that they choose a different mission. "Besides, a whole B-level squad wiped out? Can we handle it?"
It's impossible to change it.
My main job is to clock in; the rescue missions are just something I do on the side.
Chen Feng decided to give Meng Chengcheng some confidence: "What are you afraid of? Do you remember when we first entered the horror park, how many people escaped from the Fourth Mental Hospital?"
Meng Chengcheng's mouth immediately formed an "O" shape: "Could it be you?"
"That's right."
Chen Feng's tone was calm, but an indescribable confidence emanated from him: "Captain Wu said it before, a team of all B-level special agents was wiped out in a mental hospital, but I not only escaped, I also killed one of them."
I originally thought it was a minor agent, but I didn't expect it to be a top-tier agent.
Meng Chengcheng asked, "When do we leave?"
Chen Feng pondered for a while. He remembered that there was a red-eyed monster as tall as a building in the Horror Park. So, as a five-star attraction, the Crazy Zoo should also have a creature of the same level.
With my current strength, engaging in conflict with this kind of monster would be suicide.
Chen Feng enjoys thrills, but he doesn't have masochistic tendencies. The last time he went to the horror park, it was to protect his avatar. But now, he's decided to play it safe and not be reckless.
"No rush, let's wait a few days."
In the days that followed, Chen Feng worked up a sweat at the Happiness Internet Cafe, while Meng Chengcheng practiced her spiritual abilities every day.
During this time, India went to District E to look for Chen Feng several times, but Chen Feng was always using his main account to cultivate, so she missed him each time.
However, it wasn't without its gains. The strongest newcomers of this year, Jiang Die and Zhou Yi, joined her team and soon completed a D-level mission, both of them being promoted to official agents.
Seeing that India was making great strides, while Meng Chengcheng remained in seclusion.
The people in the base were talking about it:
"I wonder if this former prodigy has given up on herself."
"Suddenly receiving an A-level mission three levels above my current level, and my entire team was wiped out—I would be devastated too."
The rumors and gossip made the proud and arrogant Meng Chengcheng very anxious: "How much longer do I have to wait? Maybe I should team up with others and level up to C first."
"Look at you, always in such a hurry."
Chen Feng knew Meng Chengcheng was in a hurry, but he told her not to rush things. When the time was right, he would naturally lead her to rampage through the battlefield.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.

"The time has come!"
The night I became a "wall-bursting" character was dark and stormy.
Chen Feng switched back to his alternate account, Liu Xiaohu, and together with Meng Chengcheng, they arrived at the high walls of the Fourth Mental Hospital.
when!
With a gentle tap of his finger, Chen Feng created a huge, visible crack in the wall.
Seeing all this, Meng Chengcheng was shocked. With that kind of force, if someone were to flick her on the head, she would have to go hundreds of meters away to find her head.
"This should be it."
Chen Feng located the security room and punched the wall, burying the sleeping instructor, Pig, alive in the ensuing dust storm.
"Enemy! Enemy!"
When the pig instructor roared and poked his head out of the mound, he was met with a punch as powerful as an RPG rocket launcher.
"When we first met, I was completely powerless to resist."
"Later, we ended up in a draw."
"Now, you can't even block a single punch."
"How delightful! Instructor Pig, I'll probably never forget you for the rest of my life."
Chen Feng looked at the pieces of flesh scattered on the ground, filled with mixed emotions.
Meng Chengcheng gasped. She did some mental calculations: the combat power of one fake human was roughly equivalent to that of five trainee agents, and Pigface could crush a fake human as easily as crushing a chicken. And yet, this powerful Pigface was instantly killed by this guy with a single punch?
"Chengcheng, wait for me here."
Chen Feng, holding the sheep's head key, walked alone through the foggy square.
Soon, a series of loud noises came from afar.
Meng Chengcheng gazed into the distance and could vaguely see several purple arcs of electricity shooting out in the sky not far away.
"That's the lightning ability of the sheep-faced demon!"
"I hope nothing bad has happened to him."
Although she had already witnessed Chen Feng's incredible power, Meng Chengcheng was still sweating profusely and couldn't help but worry about him.
After all, the infamous reputation of Sheep Face was built upon the corpses of countless agents.
Suddenly, the entire mental hospital fell silent again.
The battle is over.
Who wins when someone falls to the ground?
In the stillness of the night, Meng Chengcheng suddenly saw a familiar figure walking towards her on the playground.
"promise."
Chen Feng casually tossed down a goat's head with its horns broken off: "A B-grade goat face, a C-grade pig face, plus your achievements in eradicating the Fourth Mental Hospital and saving student patients, you should be able to advance to B."
