Doomsday: Gain experience by hunting

"Xiao Wen? You're out of seclusion!" Seeing the person entering, Tang Tang cheered, bringing Tao Hua and Xiao Liu to welcome Tang Wen.

"Yeah, got tired of seclusion, came back to rest."

Tang Wen forced a smile at his sister.

"Okay, okay, come inside quickly. Oh my, how long has it been since you changed your clothes?"

Tang Tang wrinkled her nose in disgust, turning her head to shout:

"Cuilian! Come give him a haircut, and you guys give him a bath, tidy him up."

"Yes, Miss!"

The three girls happily agreed.

Tang Wen touched his lips; his beard had grown out.

Focusing solely on martial arts in the secret chamber, he had indeed become quite unkempt; it was time to clean up.

Hair wash, haircut, shave, bath, foot soak, massage.

He enjoyed a full-service treatment.

Tang Tang walked in carrying a large pot of freshly cooked donkey meat.

"It smells so good!"

The fragrant donkey meat, sprinkled with verdant green scallions, was extremely tempting.

On the table, there were also plump, white garlic cloves peeled by Xiao Liu's delicate fingers.

No one knew how the girl managed it, but there wasn't a single scratch or chip on the garlic cloves; each one was perfectly intact.

It wasn't mealtime, and Tang Wen thought that a pot of donkey meat was already top-tier treatment for coming home.

Unexpectedly, food was continuously brought to the table:

Grilled pork ribs, beggar's chicken, roasted mutton, potato beef, lard-fried potato shreds, cold radish salad…

A dazzling array, Tang Wen was dumbfounded.

When his sister came in, he said somewhat blankly, "What day is it today? Even the general's—no!—the queen's family in the camp wouldn't dare eat like this!"

Tang Tang glared at him, "Stop talking nonsense. This time, you're going to that Gushan City, thousands upon thousands of miles away. Who knows when you'll be back! Who knows when the next time we'll eat together will be! Xiao Liu, go get the wine, get the beer!"

Xiao Liu agreed and walked out.

Tang Wen was bewildered, "What Gushan City? What do you mean, who knows when we'll eat together?"

Miss Tang turned her head sharply, "You don't know?!"

"Miss Tang! Commander Tang Wen! Are you home?" A woman's pleasant voice rang out outside the door.

"No need to shout! This is my home, just come in with me." The woman's voice behind her was slightly hoarse and very impolite.

It was Zhou Bing.

The sound of the door being pushed open rang out.

Xiao Liu, who had gone to get the wine, also shouted at this moment: "Miss, Sir, Commander Zhou is home! And General Zhao, Miss Bai, and the others."

Inside the room, Tang Tang subconsciously looked at the table full of food: Sister Bing didn't say. Have the others eaten? So many dishes, will there be enough?

Tang Wen suppressed the doubts in his heart, opened the door with a bad feeling.

A dark crowd, the Queen, Zhou Bing, General Zhao, Qian Sanduo, Qian Dong, and three beautiful women.

Tang Wen reacted for a moment before remembering that they were Bai Youruo and the others.

"Your Majesty, everyone, what's the big commotion?"

"Everyone, please come in!" Tang Tang pulled her brother, who was blocking the door, aside, greeted them, and turned to tell Xiao Liu and the three girls to move stools and get bowls and chopsticks.

"Tang Wen, the food at home is good, isn't it?" General Zhao said with a smile, picked up clean chopsticks, ate a bite of beef, and then praised: "Not bad, this meat is good, much better than the cafeteria. Oh! There's wine too, perfect."

Tang Wen sat down next to Zhou Bing in a daze, his heart pounding: so many people coming over, there must be something big!

But he just didn't ask, kept urging everyone to eat and drink, focusing on being enthusiastic and attentive, but didn't ask a word about their purpose.

"I say, kid, aren't you curious about what we're here for?" After eating and drinking their fill, the tableware was cleared away and replaced with tea, General Zhao took the lead in speaking.

Tang Wen thought, it's definitely not something good.

He said, "I know!"

"Oh? You know?"

Tang Wen nodded: "You're here to congratulate me!

Under the Queen's guidance, instruction, and generous teaching.

I have mastered the last move of the Mountain-Opening Cannon Fist, 'Mountain-Crushing Cannon'!"

Very worthy of celebration."

He smiled at Zhou Bing: "Your Majesty taught me so well!"

In the presence of outsiders, the Queen always acted aloof.

Today, after entering the door, she didn't say much except to let everyone sit down.

But hearing Tang Wen's praise, she couldn't help but be modest.

This opening successfully diverted the topic.

General Zhao had no choice but to directly say helplessly: "Tang Wen, there's a mission for you in the camp."

Tang Wen was about to push back with a 'six two five,' saying he wanted to go into seclusion to avoid this!

Bai Youruo directly opened her mouth and said: "This matter started because of me, let me explain.

My Bai family is willing to offer three bottles of Marrow-Protecting Fluid,

Cultivation methods above the King level, a mental meditation technique,

Five factories, and form an alliance with your Flame Camp.

And, ask Commander Tang Wen to help me."

What generous conditions!

Tang Wen was speechless.

Marrow-Protecting Fluid or something, with the experience panel, he didn't care.

He was even less interested in alliances or anything like that.

But, cultivation methods?

Tang Wen's heart stirred. He hadn't told anyone about awakening his dark abilities.

There were no dark-related cultivation methods in the camp.

He was worried about how to practice next.

After thinking about it, Tang Wen calmly declined: "With such generous conditions, the matter must be extremely difficult, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it!"

Bai Youruo: "That's right, it's difficult! But you don't need to risk your life, you just need to enter Gushan City, find something and bring it out, and the matter will be done."

"What thing?"

Now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide it anymore.

Bai Youruo bluntly said:

"A map!

Under the northwest desert, there are many mineral deposits.

Our Bai family exploration team has been exploring this land for ten years.

We have explored several large-scale mineral veins."

Hearing this, Tang Wen frowned: explored for ten years, but the Bai family doesn't have a map?

Instead, it fell into the hands of Gushan City?

Isn't this nonsense?

He asked bluntly: "Did your Bai family lose the map?"

"Commander Tang Wen, let me finish, we have the map of the mineral veins.

But exploration has been ongoing. From the discovery of the first mineral vein, my Bai family began to establish a base in Gushan City.

It's just that without being able to spare absolute experts, everything is being done in secret."

This sounded much more reasonable.

Three United City was powerful, but with just one Bai family, it would probably not be able to deal with the entire Gushan City.

Bai Youruo continued: "A few months ago, we received news.

Near Gushan City, we found a mine!

A silver-gold mine! And sent samples.

At that time, the extent of the mineral deposit had not yet been explored, and it was unknown whether the gold and silver content was rich, so the map was not attached.

A month later, the specific extent of the silver-gold mine had been explored, and it was preliminarily determined to be a medium-to-large mineral vein.

But after the exploration team sent the map back to the Bai family's base in Gushan City, they disappeared.

I led two transcendents to retrieve the map, but the news leaked, and we were ambushed on the way."

A large silver-gold mine, the benefits are significant.

It can decide whether the Bai family goes to war with Gushan City.

Affecting the surrounding situation, related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people!

It was indeed no small matter.

General Zhao asked: "But Miss Bai also said that the people who attacked you came from within your own family?

How can you be sure that it wasn't the people from Gushan City who got the news, stole the map, and set up an ambush?"

Bai Youruo sighed: "At that time, among those who ambushed us, I recognized the identity of one of them.

Because his subordinates showed mercy. I was able to escape.

Otherwise, how could the three of us, Bai Xue and Bai Ying, even with the two transcendent guards desperately protecting us.

How could we have survived the ambush of three transcendents and five first-class martial artists?"

In fact, not only did the three of them survive.

They were not even slightly injured.

Bai Youruo revealed everything, stating directly that after entering Gushan City, they had to be careful and act according to circumstances.

She was also unsure of what the situation was currently in the Bai family's base in the city.

Whether it had rebelled or turned to another branch of the Bai family.

Next, Bai Youruo said a lot about the mineral vein and the situation in Gushan City.

She made her plans clear. If she could get the map of the silver-gold mine, that would naturally be the best.

If she couldn't get it, she still intended to cooperate with the Flame Camp, but she needed Tang Wen to return to White Stone City with her.

Tang Wen fell silent. Inside Gushan City, there were experts with dark abilities, which meant there were corresponding cultivation methods.

Even if it was for the cultivation methods, he would have to go there sooner or later.

Instead of fighting alone and running around aimlessly then.

Getting on the Bai family's ship now might be a better opportunity.

Moreover, this Miss Bai was so anxious, he should be able to ask for some more benefits, right?
