The end of the world starts with failing the exam

But what exactly is fate?

What kind of selection conditions is fate?

The "True Immortal" has never stated this clearly, so every new person who enters the organization needs to be interviewed by "him".

During this period of time, "True Immortal" personally interviewed at least more than 150 newcomers, but only one-twentieth of them passed "His" interview, and the rest were directly rejected.

As for why those people were eliminated, the "True Immortal" did not give any explanation.

Therefore, from within the organization, the "True Immortals" are extremely strict in selecting new people. Although there are not as many rules and regulations as the seminars on the surface, it is more difficult to pass the "True Immortals" interview than to join the seminars. Only big, not small.

Because of this, Tuoke and Canary were so surprised when Chen Jing said that he had passed the interview.

"You just passed?" Tuo Ke didn't even have time to light the cigar in his mouth. He hugged Chen Jing with a dull expression and congratulated him in a daze, "You... don't need to take the assessment or anything. ?”

"What assessment?" Chen Jing was stunned.

"Just complete some 'trial' tasks, and then go to the 'True Immortal' for a second interview. At that time, the 'True Immortal' will give you some verbal rewards to cheer you up, and then conduct another interview. A round of task tests, and finally a third interview... Only if you pass the interview can you join us."

"Damn it, is it so troublesome?" Chen Jing was stunned for a moment, thinking that Li Mobai was pretty good at summoning people. He went through all these tricks, and people who didn't want to join in the middle had to consider the sunk costs.

Three interviews in a row.

You can't make any money until you pass, and at most you can get some verbal encouragement from "real immortals". What the hell is the difference between this and trying to make a big pie?

But think about it from another angle.

Li Mobai certainly has his reasons for doing this. If he is really the omnipotent "true immortal" in the eyes of these believers, then he does not need to be stingy when recruiting new people like this. He should appropriately show his wealth and willingness to follow His people will only be more, not less.

So why is he so stingy?

Either he has other purposes, or he really can't do it, and if he gets some benefits, he will be squeezed dry...

Li Mobai didn't tell the specific reason, and Chen Jing didn't have the chance to ask now, but based on his feeling... it should be the latter.

The guy's body is still under Turing's house arrest. It is obviously impossible to use this backup of consciousness to do whatever he wants.

If there is too much movement, Turing will notice.

The movement is too small... Well, if I want to be on the safe side, this should be the situation now.

"Wait a minute, I'll make sure."

Canary didn't seem to believe Chen Jing's words. After all, there were only one or two newcomers in history who could pass the interview so easily.

"Go." Chen Jing smiled, put his hands in his pockets and walked aside, standing under the only street light outside the shack, looking at the gradually brightening sky, "Your 'True Immortal' is very optimistic about me."

"Is he optimistic about you?" Canary looked at Chen Jing suspiciously, then turned and walked towards the shack, intending to ask the "true immortal".

As soon as Canary walked into the shack, Tuo Ke secretly patted Chen Jing on the shoulder.

"Brother, don't mind." Tuoke said cautiously, as if he was afraid that the canary in the room would hear, "She has always had this temper and is too cautious. Sometimes I want to say that she is..."

"Pretty good." Chen Jing smiled.

"Hey, don't be angry!"

Tuoke hurriedly put his arm around Chen Jing's shoulders. He seemed to think that the underground hacker was angry because of this matter. After all, Canary's temper was quite annoying, so he hurriedly explained.

"She suffered a lot because of her carelessness in the past. Once she accidentally fell into the hands of the company and was dismantled by them to sell. In the end, we were lucky and stopped the floating truck transporting the goods in time..."

"Brother, I'm really not as narrow-minded as you think." Chen Jing glanced at Tuoke helplessly, and then pushed away his right hand on his shoulder, "I think in a place like Hanging City, you need to be cautious. It’s the real way to live forever, so her behavior is normal and I can certainly understand it.”

"It's good if you understand."

Canary suddenly opened the door and walked out. She had heard the previous conversation between Chen Jing and Tuo Ke, so she took a special look at Chen Jing as soon as she walked out, with a hint of appreciation in her eyes.

"I asked, and the 'True Immortal' said that you are qualified to be exempted from the test. You will be the leader of the next actions against [Qinglong Palace]."

"Okay, I have no objection."

Chen Jing smiled and looked up at the gradually brightening sky.

"Find me a quiet place, closer to [Qinglong Palace]. I'll use my 'spirit' to explore the way for you."

"I'll find the place you mentioned." Canary nodded, then stretched out her hand to Chen Jing, "From today on, we are our own people, and [Daomen] welcomes you."

Chen Jing smiled without saying anything and shook hands with her.

"Well, take care of me in the future."

Chapter 760: Mission Impossible in the Hanging City (Part 2)

"Disciple, have you successfully infiltrated the inside now?"

"Yes, Master."

"How many people do they [Daodemen] have in their entire organization?"

"It's not clear yet..."

In the hotel closest to [Qinglong Palace], Chen Jing was sitting alone in the bedroom of this suite, while Canary was guarding outside the living room, not to monitor Chen Jing, but just to see what else was going on. Can help.

As for Tuoke and Mad Dog.

In the words of the research association, cause and effect are too heavy. They have made many enemies and creditors in the Hanging City. As long as they step into the main city or near the territory of the research association and large companies, it is easy to expose their identities and cause trouble. risk.

Of course, in layman's terms, the two of them have too many criminal records. Even if they use the disguise given by the "true immortal", it is difficult for them to guarantee that their identities will not be exposed in the city.

In order to ensure that the plan went smoothly, they always hid in the back streets and alleys deep in the city, and were ready to handle Chen Jing and the others' escape at any time.

This is the third hour after leaving the "shack".

In the "temporary base" that Canary and the others helped find, Chen Jing said that he wanted to use hacking methods to explore the situation of [Qinglong Palace]. If he could hack into their internal monitoring system, he might be able to dig out More valuable strategic information…

Yes.

At least that's what he said.

The reality is that when he first started to wander, he immediately contacted Turing as a "second-five kid" and reported the situation to Turing "truthfully".

From fighting on the streets with armed company employees, to fleeing to a slum in a slum area, and finally being introduced by a "rebel", he went through "all kinds of hardships" to meet the mastermind behind the scenes.

"So you mean...[Daomen]'s immediate boss...is an intelligent AI?" Turing asked in disbelief.

"I'm not sure either." Chen Jing used the skillful Spring and Autumn style of writing to explain to Turing, "I only saw a holographic figure. I heard it say that it was a 'true immortal', and it was with our seminar." Things are similar, but not quite the same.”

"This may be more complicated than I thought."

Turing sighed helplessly, feeling indescribably depressed. The situation was obviously bad enough, but at the critical moment such trouble appeared in the rear area of ​​Hanging City... But fortunately, his apprentice was still reliable!

"You continue to lurk in [Daodao Gate] and try not to be exposed." Turing gave instructions and said calmly, "I will assist you in secret. If you need my cooperation, please contact me in time."

"Okay." Chen Jing agreed immediately, "The first task they assigned me is the operation of [Qinglong Palace]. How are you preparing for it?"

"The notice of the work report will be sent out in one hour, tomorrow... I will ask the leaders of the Nine Palaces and Eighteen Palaces to come to my 'Lihentian' gathering."

"Okay, then we will go to [Qinglong Palace] tomorrow." Chen Jing said.

"I just checked... The No. 1 warehouse in [Qinglong Palace] is almost mostly empty..." Turing suddenly asked, "What are they going to get from that warehouse?"

"I don't know either." Chen Jing pretended to be confused and said perfunctorily, "They didn't tell me the details of the mission. They only asked me to help them hack the peripheral defense system."

"Actually, I really want to move all the things in that warehouse. I don't know why... I have a very bad feeling." Turing sighed, "But after I move all those things, will you just forget it?" Mission failed?"

"Yes." Chen Jing replied.

"If I want you to completely penetrate into the [Dao Gate], it seems that we have to take some risks..."

In fact, Chen Jing knows everything.

For example, the goal of this operation.

That warehouse does store the things "Li Mobai" needs. It can even be said that every action of [Daomen] is based on the urgent needs of "Li Mobai".

All of this.

They are all directly related to the "meat ball" rolling out of the shrine.

"The Immortal's Fetus is a new body that I refined for myself using biotechnology. Once it is refined, my body can be discarded. Turing will never have a chance to threaten me with his body."

These were Li Mobai's original words, and they were also an important reason why he was secretly doing things in the Hanging City. He needed a large amount of "biological materials" from the research association. Only these materials that did not flow to the outside world could help him build a new body.

Like their goal of going to [Qinglong Palace] this time - [Ginseng Suspension].

This is what Li Mobai needs.

The reason why Chen Jing didn't explain it to Turing was because he was afraid that this guy would try some tricks secretly.

"Have you finished your 'fugue'?"

At the same time that Chen Jing jumped off the bed, Canary heard the sound and pushed the door open.

"how is the situation?"

"Not bad." Chen Jing said with a smile, "I figured out the general route, and I also left notes on the network nodes that can be borrowed."

"As long as it goes well." Canary breathed a long sigh of relief and felt relieved when she heard Chen Jing's answer. "It's almost time. Let's go have dinner?"

"Okay, let's invite Mad Dog Tuoke to join us. Let's go get together... By the way, I've already set the time for the action."

Chen Jing's biological prosthetic eyes flickered slightly, and he couldn't help but reveal a smile when he looked at the email in the mailbox that Turing sent to the Nine Palaces and Eighteen Palaces.

"When will we do it?" Canary asked hurriedly.

"tomorrow."

Chen Jing turned to look at Canary, only to find that the girl seemed a little overwhelmed, as if she didn't expect to get down to business so soon.

"Are you not ready?"

"No...it's not." Canary shook her head, "I just didn't expect it to be so fast. I heard Tuoke and the others said before that this task might not be completed in less than ten days and a half, so we have to be patient and wait for the right time. "

"Yes, the right time." Chen Jing said with a smile, "It's tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Jing pointed to his eyes.

"Just now, I intercepted a mass email sent by the management of the research association, saying that members of [Qinglong Palace] will go to 'Lihentian' tomorrow to give a work report. Isn't this the opportunity we have to wait for?"

"Real or false?" Canary's eyes lit up and she asked hurriedly, "Is the news you intercepted reliable? Will the members of [Qinglong Palace] go to 'Lihentian' together tomorrow?"

"It's close to ten, it should be reliable." Chen Dingding nodded, "No matter what, we can't miss this opportunity. We will see the specific situation tomorrow. Let's go and say hello to Mad Dog and the others first. If everything goes well, we can do it tomorrow. Get this done!”

Chapter 761: Patrolman of the Sea (Part 1)

"So the specific situation is this. We only have thirty minutes to use. Although during this period, the defense system of [Qinglong Palace] is still in normal operation, but compared to now... To be honest, our chances Much bigger.”

In the cyber virtual space, in a "safe house" without any captureable information, Chen Jing and Canary were having the final meeting before the operation.

This "dark chamber" built by Chen Jing is located deep in the virtual network. If you use the visual system in the "fugue" state to observe, all you can see is the strange and gorgeous neon code all over the sky.

The numbers in these neon codes formed their bodies, and the pink-purple halo passed through their limbs and bones, flowing freely like invisible water.

These translucent blurred figures were like ownerless ghosts in the virtual network. Even though Chen Jing couldn't remember how many times he had entered this digital space, he still felt that it was still so unreal.

It was as if this was an ancient god's dream.

All bizarre sights.

It's all just a dream of "Turing".

"Thirty minutes?" Mad Dog looked a little uneasy. Although he usually looked like a ruffian, as if he was not afraid of anything, but when it came time to do something big, he seemed more nervous than anyone else, "Are you sure? Is this news reliable? How true is it???”

"You've asked me thirty-two times already." Chen Jing said helplessly, "Brother, if you feel scared, let's just say it. At worst, we won't take you with us on this mission."

"Who the hell is scared!" Mad Dog retorted hastily, looking a little angry, "Who doesn't know about the mercenaries who are working in the Hanging City circle?! I am a well-known desperado!!"

"Then what are you afraid of?" Chen Jing asked.

"I'm not afraid!" Mad Dog retorted, still refusing to admit it, "I'm just excited!"

"Are you so excited that your frame dropped?" Chen Jing looked at Mad Dog's digital body that was constantly flashing, and said to himself that this guy's mood seems to be unstable, and it is extremely difficult to maintain a "fugue" state.

"Calm down!" Tuoke's digital body was also flashing. Obviously his mood was the same as Mad Dog's, but not as obvious as Mad Dog's. "Isn't it just a [Qinglong Palace]! We are not even afraid of the company return……"

"Are you saying the opposite?"

Mad Dog sighed, as if he was no longer prepared to hold on, and shook his head with a wry smile.

"To be honest, we have been in the industry for so many years, and we have done a lot of hard work with our heads in our belts. We can be regarded as 'outlaws' in ordinary people's perception, but this... this is a fucking research association organization! One of the Nine Palaces and Eighteen Palaces!”
