spooky invasion

The more Captain Taurus thought about it, the more anxious he became. It was like there was a fire burning in my chest. He thought a lot. He thought about the tragic outcome of the entire base's confrontation with the authorities. He thought about the tens of thousands of people who might die because of someone's ambition. He even thought about the fact that his daughter was one of those tens of thousands of people.

When he thought of his daughter, his heart, as hard as iron, suddenly felt as painful as a needle pricking it. He could no longer calm down.

His daughter was the only person he had to protect for the rest of his life. A beloved who is willing to sacrifice his life at all costs.

My daughter is only a teenager, and it is the most beautiful season. She is kind, she loves life, and she totally deserves a better life. If it weren’t for this damn weird era, my daughter could spend every day happily and enjoy this age. The green years that we should have.

But even so, her daughter never gave up on herself because of the strange times, and she never hated the world. At the base, she never felt superior to others just because she was the daughter of the regiment leader. She always has a kind heart and treats the world gently.

It would have been impossible for such a pure and beautiful girl to survive in this strange era. If it weren't for the fact that she had a father who was a regiment leader, she would have been reduced to a plaything in the base, an item to be fought for.

The daughter is the opposite scale of the Taurus leader, a forbidden area that cannot be touched. Thinking that his daughter might die with the destruction of the base, Captain Jinniu's heart felt like it was being pricked by countless needles, and it was extremely painful.

No matter what, nothing must happen to my daughter.

This is the bottom line for the Taurus leader.

But in this current situation, a full-scale war is really going on. As a golden-robed messenger and the leader of the Jinniu Regiment in the pit head base, he is probably going to be a key target, and his daughter will most likely be implicated.

Now, the pit head base has been swayed by the ambitions of some individuals. The war with the authorities is no longer fighting for the future and destiny of the base, but for the ambitions of some individuals.

Is such a battle really meaningful? Is it necessary to continue?

A crack finally appeared in Captain Jinniu's heart. As soon as this hole was opened, his restless mood became more and more anxious.

Something had to be done, this damn situation had to change.

If not, maybe the next bombing or the next sneak attack might happen to his relatives, his daughter.

But in the current situation, he was in a state of facing the wall and thinking about his mistakes, what could he do?

As soon as he leaves, someone will immediately notify Ksitigarbha Protector and even Tiangang. At that time, if he leaves the place where he has been thinking without permission, he will probably become the target of the entire base.

You absolutely can't do this mindlessly.

Being impulsive means immediately falling into crisis and struggling.

Even if you want to do something, you must make a decision before taking action. First of all, you must make sure that you leave in good faith. But it was already midnight, how could he leave in a legitimate manner? Without the order of Ksitigarbha Protector, or the Ksitigarbha Protector speaking in person, it is obviously unrealistic for him to leave justifiably.

As for Tiangang, it is even more impossible to expect him to be lenient. His previous confrontation probably made Tiangang deeply afraid of him.

If Ksitigarbha hadn't blasted him away in time, Tiangang would have attacked him if he continued to hold on.

Captain Jinniu couldn't sit still. He walked to the door and said to a guard at the door: "Brother, please inform Ksitigarbha Protector that I have something important to see him. This matter is very important and cannot be delayed for a minute." .”

But the man was very straightforward: "Master Niu, I'm sorry, the protector must have rested at this point. He will go to the official camp tomorrow to negotiate with the officials. Nowadays, the big things are not as big as this. You Don’t be impatient, the Protector has told you to stay calm here. When the storm is over, the base will have to point you to charge forward. But at this juncture, you’d better not cause trouble to the Protector, right?”

The person guarding this place is naturally someone from Ksitigarbha Protector's side. Although he is just a janitor, he is a smart person.

He is not that stupid. If he disturbs the Ksitigarbha protector in the middle of the night, isn't that because he wants to live longer and makes himself uncomfortable?

At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside.

Several guards around heard the footsteps and gathered around him. But I saw two unfamiliar faces.

Even though they were strangers, the attitudes of these two people were quite arrogant.

Without giving these guards a chance to speak, he directly raised the protective talisman in his hand and flew it into the hands of those guards.

"The Lord Protector has ordered you to take the leader of the Taurus Group, Mr. Niu, to discuss secret matters."

Several guardians were so shocked that they even forgot to check whether the talisman was genuine or not. Instead, they looked at these two unfamiliar faces and couldn't help but ask: "Which department are you from? Guardian Ksitigarbha Have your subordinates never seen you two?”

"I didn't say that we are the Protector's people. The Protector is at Mr. Hu's place, and we are under Mr. Hu."

These guards naturally know who Mr. Hu is. He was the head of the entire back office, with a high position of authority. Although it is not in the order of battle, in terms of weight, it is not inferior to a golden robe messenger.

Most people in the base are well aware of the relationship between Manager Hu and Protector Ksitigarbha. They didn't hide it, they just carried it as Ksitigarbha protector.

But the Lord Protector did not send his own people to pick up the person, but asked Manager Hu's people to pick up the person. It was somewhat strange.

Therefore, they were a little undecided for a while.

"What? Is it the Lord Protector's words that don't work, or the Lord Protector's talisman that doesn't work?"

When several people heard this, they were all excited. If it was really the Lord Protector's order, they must be disrespectful to the Lord Protector by being so negligent.

Therefore, they had to carefully look at the talismans in their hands.

At this sight, several people looked solemn. This is really the guardian's command talisman, and it is guaranteed to be genuine!

This!

This is the personal talisman of the Protector. There is only one. Once someone holds this talisman, it means that the protector is here in person. No matter what your status is, as long as you are not a Tiangang boss, you must obey orders and arrangements.

Not to mention mentioning people, even if they are asked to demolish the house and set fire to it, they must resolutely carry out it.

If someone steals the talisman and falsely delivers the imperial edict, then the person in charge of the talisman is negligent and the fault does not lie with them.

But if they don't implement it, it will be equivalent to ignoring the order of Ksitigarbha protector and disrespecting the order. The fault will be all on them.

Thinking of this, these people did not dare to neglect, cupped their hands, and motioned for the visitor to follow them into the house.

"Master Niu, these two people are holding protective talismans and want you to move over to discuss secret matters. Our brothers will hand you over to them now, and our mission will be completed."

Captain Jinniu had just been defeated and was feeling discouraged. He didn't know how to escape, but he unexpectedly heard the news that he could leave this place. He couldn't help but be a little stunned for a moment.

"Where is Ksitigarbha Protector?" Captain Jinniu couldn't help but ask.

"At Mr. Hu's place, Mr. Niu, please!"

Although the leader of the Taurus team was confused, he finally had the chance to leave. He could not still be attached to him, so he strode out without saying a word. Those two people were naturally Han Jingjing and Mao Doudou. When Han Jingjing passed by the guards, she said calmly: "Where is the command talisman? Do you still want to keep the protector's command talisman?"

The guard who was still carefully checking the talisman couldn't help but feel embarrassed, so he had to hand the talisman to Han Jingjing like a hot potato.

Keep the protector's talisman? It's impossible to keep him even if I lend him some courage.

Captain Jinniu followed the two strange young men and breathed in the fresh air of the base, feeling his depression ease a little.

However, when his eyes returned to the backs of the two young men, he felt strange for no reason. Although these two people did not deliberately show any strength or ability, the leader of the Jinniu group could vaguely feel that these two people were not ordinary lackeys.

At least, in the pit head base, even if such a person does not stand out, he should still make a name for himself. How could he be so unknown and still work in the back office department?

As we all know, in any base, the first choice for anyone with decent abilities is to make contributions in the order of battle.

Because it is easy to make meritorious deeds and stand out, to put it bluntly, there is a lot of room for advancement.

If you work in back office, no matter how beautifully you do things and how outstanding your personal abilities are, it may not work.

Because the work you do is very replaceable, if someone else does it, as long as you put your heart and mind into it, you can still do it very well.

Ms. Hu, the back-office manager, is a good example. In the entire back office department, if there are not many people who can do things better than Ms. Hu, there must be some.

Why is she the manager? Is her ability really stronger than everyone else?

That’s not necessarily the case!

In addition to her ability, Ms. Hu's biggest advantage is that she has the Ksitigarbha protector, which is the key factor for her to become the head of internal affairs.

In the combat department, although you need to have a background and be supported by noble people, if you have outstanding personal abilities, there are many people who are willing to support you. Who doesn’t want the more people he can fight, the better?

This is not the case in the back office department. If you can do it, others can do it too. There are many people who can replace you and there are many choices. If you want to stand out, you have to look at other factors.

These other factors are often the least controllable.

Just like these two young people, they can only be Ms. Hu's subordinates. Unless Ms. Hu commits suicide, her position as the back-office manager will never be vacant.

Then the upper limit of the room for improvement in the back office department is just that.

The combat department is different. The opportunities to make contributions are there. There is a lot of room for advancement, there are many channels, and there are many positions.

Moreover, combat departments often suffer casualties. If one dies, one's position will be freed up.

At the Kengtou base, the combat department often expands. Once expanded, many positions will appear out of thin air.

Those are all opportunities for advancement.

Therefore, Captain Jinniu looked at these two capable young people with some suspicion in his heart. But after all these hardships, he finally learned a little bit about the city.

As long as it has nothing to do with you, don't talk too much about things you can't see through. Don't ask, don't pry, this is the smartest way to protect yourself.

Soon, they arrived at Ms. Hu’s territory.

The guards on the periphery have long been accustomed to the bustle tonight, and since Ksitigarbha Protector is here in person, they will naturally not investigate.

What's more, these two people are wearing protective talismans.

After entering the house, Captain Taurus was led to the living room.

Ms. Hu was present, Brother Dao was also present, and there were a few unfamiliar faces, but Ksitigarbha Protector was not seen.

Captain Jinniu was a little surprised: "Manager Hu, wasn't it summoned by the Protector?"

He looked around and didn't see Ksitigarbha Protector anywhere.

Looking at Ms. Hu's expression again, it seems to be somewhat meaningful. Captain Taurus frowned and immediately raised his alert level to the highest level.

The atmosphere inside the house is obviously different from that outside.

"Master Niu, don't be nervous. Please sit down. Protector Ksitigarbha will meet you soon." Ms. Hu suddenly smiled and took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Captain Jinniu.

Captain Jinniu glanced around cautiously, his eyes falling on He Jin and others. They are all powerful awakeners, and the Taurus leader instinctively has a sense of crisis.

He felt that these people, even children, exuded an aura that made his heart palpitate.

This is definitely not someone from the back office department!

What surprised him even more was that these people's eyes were actually looking at the two people who had led him away to this place before.

At this time, Captain Jinniu saw the front faces of these two people clearly.

Han Jingjing nodded calmly: "Captain Jinniu, I have long admired your name. Let me get straight to the point. In fact, it is not Ksitigarbha Protector who wants to see you, but we who want to see you."

"You? Which department do you belong to?" Captain Jinniu looked a little ugly, and he inexplicably came up with a terrifying possibility.

These people are so strange, and the aura exuding from their bodies is so terrifying. Are they from Tiangang boss?

Everyone knows that Tiangang boss also has a group of dead soldiers, and they never show off easily. Could it be that these people were ordered by Tiangang to exterminate someone else?

Thinking of this, Captain Jinniu felt an inexplicable sadness and anger in his heart.

"Boss Tiangang, do we have to kill them all? Just because I contradicted him? I am an old cow who thinks about the base wholeheartedly, but in the end, I am not as good as a few slanders from a treacherous villain? I don't accept it!"

Captain Jinniu really broke the pot this time.

"If everyone in the Kengtou base thinks that I deserve to die, I am a person who destroys the general environment, and I will not regret my death. But based on the selfish ambitions of some individuals, they will abuse lynching and kill me to silence me. Such actions are definitely not for The future of the base is determined by some people’s selfish motives! The Kengtou base is facing a disaster and it won’t last long!”

"Where is Ksitigarbha Protector? I want to see him, and I want to ask him personally, where did my old cow go wrong?"

The leader of the Taurus team was obviously full of resentment and took a cathartic tone to vent the anger he had held in for so long!

Surprisingly, the others did not stop his rebellious remarks, but looked at him with a half-smiling expression.

This expression may be a little strange, but it definitely does not reveal murderous intent, nor does it mean that he is angry because of shame. Instead, he has some inexplicable appreciation.
