Chu Kang was a White Mist member who was responsible for completing world missions, just like what Gu Nan and the others did in Radiant Tower back then.
But Chu Kang was very angry today.
There was a mission reward he really wanted in the batch of missions given by the organization just half a month ago, and the mission itself wasn't too hard either. After preparing for a long time, he was about to start working on that mission, but he was suddenly asked to put everything down right now.
Why would they gather all the members responsible for completing missions? There must be other missions to complete!
"Amateurs ordering professionals around!" Chu Kang grumbled discontentedly, but he had no choice but to comply.
After all, these amateurs were his superiors.
Chu Kang was still full of impatience when he reached the meeting place. He just wanted to get this done early and return to preparing his own mission.
But just as he was about to push the door in, an acquaintance rushed out of it.
"Big Guan? You were also summoned?" Chu Kang spoke in surprise, as if this person shouldn't have appeared here.
The person in front of him was Guan Sheng, who was also one of White Mist's mission personnel, but he was much more famous than Chu Kang and was considered an ace in completing missions.
If Chu Kang didn't have a good personal relationship with him, he wouldn't even be able to talk to Guan Sheng.
But the current Guan Sheng was in a hurry. He just barely managed a smile and greeted Chu Kang briefly. The words "I have to go now" were practically written all over his face.
Chu Kang was used to this. Guan Sheng was usually a mission maniac and wasn't interested in anything else.
'Now that he was called here for no reason, he's probably impatient to leave.'
He just didn't expect that when Guan Sheng turned to leave but realized Chu Kang was empty-handed, he hesitated and advised, "Don't you usually also get tricky missions? It'll be best if you bring along information on those missions… Oh right, this is only limited to the batch half a month ago."
After saying that, Guan Sheng hurried away, leaving Chu Kang with a face full of confusion.
'Don't tell me that the hard missions can be resolved as long as I bring their information here?'
Chu Kang shook his head as he pushed the door in and entered, but what he saw was a rather bizarre scene.
A young man in a white robe was sitting in the main seat, talking and occasionally writing something on the board behind him.
When Chu Kang entered, the young man was filling up a board with writing, then replaced it with a new board while the old board was taken away respectfully by a person next to him.
Chu Kang's eyes almost popped out when he realized who that humble-looking figure was.
That was the head of their missions department, Mr. Zuo Chuanyuan—Elder Zuo!
Elder Zuo was one of White Mist's elders, and he was also a bloodline user from the Central Region. Not only was he strong, but he was also an absolute authority in executing missions!
If not for the fact that there really were very few bloodline user reincarnation organizations, Elder Zuo staying in White Mist might even be considered a waste of his talent.
But such a distinguished elder was now respectfully receiving that board filled with handwriting and glancing around for fear of someone snatching that board away.
"Elder Zuo," Chu Kang hurriedly stepped forward to greet him. All the people present were from their missions department, so of course he'd greet his top boss first. "This is…"
When Elder Zuo saw him, he just nodded. "You're here, have a seat first. Listen attentively and study hard."
After saying that, he buried himself in studying the board. Chu Kang was dumbfounded, and when he saw all the people next to him in similar states, he could only sit down patiently.
After Chu Kang sat down, he heard the white-robed youth in the main seat say, "Next one… White Bird City State—whose mission is this?"
As soon as his voice fell, the door was slammed open, and someone shouted, "Mine! My Lord, that's my mission!"
Chu Kang stared at the door with wide eyes. Guan Sheng had already run back in, sweat still on his forehead.
As Guan Sheng spoke, he hurriedly handed the information in his hand to the white-robed youth. Gu Sheng seemed glad that he had returned in time.
White Bird City State—Chu Kang had heard of this mission before.
The mission was in a small plane, but there was a Domain Stage expert watching over that plane, and the mission objective was to kill the son of a member of that city state's legislature.
According to the information sent back by White Mist's scouts, the legislative member kept his son under very strict and comprehensive guard, and the scouts couldn't even determine the target's name. They only knew the school he went to and some other basic information.
Based on the scouts' investigation, there were currently 21 suspects who could be the assassination target—the legislative member's son.
In order to not trigger the mission ahead of schedule, the scouts dared not investigate too deeply and could only send back this much information.
"Scheduled plan: Secretly investigate the background of the suspected targets one by one, or start with the legislative member himself. If you have any information about the target's identity, please feel free to contact headquarters."
After reading the mission information, the white-robed young man then re-read the plan given by the missions department.
In the absence of detailed information, the missions department could only choose to approach it this way. This plan was personally reviewed by Chu Kang, and he didn't believe it left anything out.
However, the youth's next words almost made him furious.
"Who made this plan? What's the use of investigating the legislative member? Why not just go to the target and kill him directly?" The young man threw the file onto the table and said dismissively.
Chu Kang glared at him. He really wanted to stand up and interrogate the other person: 'Do you really understand? Did you really read the information carefully? There are 21 suspects. As long as any one of them encounters an accident, the real target will be alarmed, and the defenses around him will tighten and render further assassination attempts impossible!'
'What's more, even if you're lucky enough to find your target, who can guarantee that the target will be unprotected?'
Most world missions were time-sensitive. After all, the reincarnation planes were also real worlds and were also moving along an established timeline.
If they didn't find a suitable entry point, it might lead directly to mission failure.
A sneer had already appeared on Chu Kang's face. 'This person is clearly an amateur.'
Based on his years of experience completing missions, that legislative member himself was obviously the key. If you find enough clues from him to confirm the target's true identity, you can kill the target with one blow.
And there may be false information during this process, so this would test whether the person carrying out this mission had the ability to distinguish truth from lies.
But this wasn't his own mission, so Chu Kang could only crush his anger. Even if others didn't speak up, he believed that Guan Sheng would definitely speak up.
Guan Sheng really did speak up, but his attitude was so polite that Chu Kang thought it was the wrong person.
"There are 21 people suspected of being the target. May I ask—how can we confirm which one is the true target?" Guan Sheng half-bowed, as if he was a student asking a teacher a question.
The young man took his attitude for granted and answered, "But you don't need to confirm that? Why don't you just kill them all? Look carefully at the information of these 21 people."
"Sixteen are students of the same high school, four are teachers of this high school, and there's only one unemployed person left."
"Take enough high-end explosives with you when you reincarnate. Find the unemployed person first, take him to the high school, and put all the explosives on him, then detonate it."
The young man knocked on the table and casually returned the file to Guan Sheng. "It doesn't matter how many people are protecting the target, as long as there are enough explosives."
"Next."
