Throne of Radiance

"Haven't you reached the place yet? Isn't this too far away?"

On the winding winding mountain road, the black off-road vehicle is speeding fast.

Only the passenger sitting in the co-pilot complained impatiently, but the young man in the driver's seat choked back coldly: "If you don't want to go, you can get out of the car now."

The young man was wearing a simple white round-neck T-shirt and jeans, and a dark gray sports sweater.His short and sharp hair has distinct roots, like the thorns of a hedgehog exploding, his thick black eyebrows look a bit unruly, and his eyes are extremely bright and energetic. The first impression he gives is that he is not easy to provoke.

The complainer shrank his neck resolutely, and said resentfully: "I'm just talking casually, why are you so serious? And I'm also worried that everyone will be deceived..."

Speaking of this, he gradually became confident: "The place given is so remote and far away that we can't even find the navigation. It took us three days just to drive. Who knows if that person is talking nonsense and deceiving people Maybe he just wanted to delay us for a few days and then take the opportunity to run away? The reward we all give is not cheap..." He shook his head and sighed, "I have invested half a year's pocket money!"

The speaker looked about 25, wearing a black coat, wearing a two-finger-wide platinum necklace around his neck, a silver watch on his left wrist, and a pure gold bracelet on his right wrist, with three out of ten fingers wearing it. wearing a ring.From the strands of hair to the heels exudes the breath of growing up soaked in banknotes.

"You think too much, Xue Hao. Our transaction is in the transaction section of Chaofan Forum, and we specially applied for the official notarization of the forum." Sitting in the back row, Memorial said, which can be regarded as a relief, "Although everyone on the forum It is anonymous, but the people behind the extraordinary forum must know our real identity, which is a "fact" recognized by many people. Everyone can guess that there is a powerful extraordinary person behind the extraordinary forum. There should be no Who is so strong, and dare to use false information to cheat money when the forum officials are involved?"

Ji Heng agreed with his sister's words without hesitation: "Yes! It's a trivial matter to cheat us of money, but it is a major matter to affect the credibility of Chaofan Forum. Chaofan Forum will definitely pursue it."

Thinking of the forum points given out in order to apply for the official notarization of the forum, Ji Heng couldn't help grinning, showing pain on his face.

Those forum points are accumulated little by little by signing in and actively completing various tasks on the forum every day!

The missions released by Chaofan Forum are all kinds of strange. In addition to the fact that users on the forum can share missions with points, the official forum will also regularly update the mission section, but only those who have accepted the mission can know the specific mission information.

Sometimes it's just some simple errand tasks, such as mailing a courier, and finding a stranger at a certain time and place to pass a sentence on the same item.Difficult tasks include short-term protection of a certain target, rescue of a certain location... As for the more difficult tasks, they are not clear, and they are still out of reach with their current forum level.

So far, among the missions they have done, the one that impressed me the most was about half a month ago, out of curiosity, Xue Hao picked up a local errand mission while traveling in other places.

After he arrived in that city, he found a box under an inconspicuous wall according to the mission prompt - he guessed that another person took over the task of burying the box there, and pushing it up one by one, maybe There are more people whose missions are linked together—according to the time and place provided in the mission details updated in real time on the forum, they came to a certain cafe accurately, and left a photo in the box on the one they drank coffee with. On the table.

Because it was the first time to do this kind of errand task, Xue Hao did not leave the cafe, but observed outside for a while curiously.In less than a minute, he saw that the photo was taken away by the waiter, and when the other party saw the photo, his expression was obviously different.

Xue Hao was very puzzled at the time. There were no people and no special signs in the photo. It felt like a wild landscape photo.

But just three days later, he learned of the death of the waiter from the news. The waiter died in a river in the suburbs, and the cause of death was an accidental fall into the water.The scenery near the river in the newspaper is exactly the same as that in the landscape photo.

Xue Hao:! ! !

If he is also an uninformed person, he must think that this is just a very common accident, did he even mention the news without reading it?

But it was too coincidental that the person on the back died in the river in the photo just after the front foot sent out the photo.Others may have thought that the deceased liked the nearby scenery so he went for a walk after get off work, and there was no doubt that he found the landscape photos taken before, but Xue Hao, who knew the truth, had already started to tremble.

...I always feel that I will be handcuffed by the police QAQ at some point.

Because his suspicious, panic, and fearful emotions were too obvious, soon, the little friends who came to his house to play with him found out that something was wrong. Scalp said the thing.

In the end, what greeted him was not only the eyes of sympathy and relief from his friends, but heartless laughter.

Ji Heng even burst into tears with laughter, and patted him on the shoulder wildly while laughing: "I said, you should study the Fa at least. You don't know anything, but you just got a photo by accident, took it away out of curiosity, and Just happened to drop the photo there while drinking coffee at a cafe... How do you expect someone to pick up that photo, go to the location in the photo and 'accidentally' fall into the water and die there? It has nothing to do with you .”

"Hey..." At that time, Xue Hao was completely stupefied, he could only open his mouth wide, almost looking at this former friend with a new perspective, he didn't realize the change in the other party until then, " This is indeed the case in law, but the matter of that person must have something to do with that photo." The photo was left by him again, so it's normal to feel bad.

It was difficult for him to understand how they could take a person's life so lightly and still smile as usual.Even his feelings about commemoration became complicated.

"...That's because, he deserves to die."

Memorial opened his mouth to answer Xue Hao's doubts.

Once in the sword world, even if the acquaintances around them didn't notice any changes in them, they were still lively and cheerful as always, and occasionally made inappropriate and nonsensical spoofs, but in fact, both brothers and sisters knew the changes in them.

Although it is an illusion, the world where martial arts prevail is by no means a stable and peaceful society. Fighting between warriors will really kill people.In the "three years" time, they have seen other people's deaths, and almost died at the hands of others. Their values ​​are different from those of Xue Hao in a peaceful society.

After leaving the sword world, they learned of the identities of Li Fufeng and Liu Ningshuang, and also received an invitation from the Department of Detective Aliens.

Although they didn't agree, they didn't completely reject them. They were more similar to the kind of non-staff who worked freely and occasionally.That is to say: when a transcendent person is found to be in trouble, he will actively provide clues and report to the Mystery Detective Department, and he will not resist accepting some less dangerous tasks issued by the Mystery Detective Department, and will run errands and work hard for the Mystery Detective Department.

The supernatural forum, which seems to be established by supernatural beings and is itself mysterious, has caught the eyes of officials from various countries since the very beginning.I am afraid that the official extraordinary agencies of various countries, including the detection department, have personnel who have been observing the extraordinary forums for a long time, and some national agencies are even active on the forums under the big name.

The task section of the Extraordinary Forum was also the focus of their observations.

In the past, there were personnel from the Alien Detection Division who tried to accept the mission, and some who had nothing to do with the Division, wanted to accept the mission and then sell the information to the authorities, but they were directly stuck in the first step.

——It seems that the managers of Chaofan Forum have a special selection mechanism. They will release each task to the most suitable person, and they are very sure that the other party will do the task seriously instead of making trouble, and they will not directly leak task information backhanded .

Later, when chatting with Liu Ningshuang, the other party casually told them this kind of information that could not be considered confidential.

Not only that, but the brothers and sisters also learned from Li Fufeng that because the Chaofan Forum does not require those who accept tasks to keep their mouths shut, there have also been people like Xue Hao who finished the task and told the story.Based on these clues, the special investigation team of the Investigative Department investigated and found that not every task released by the extraordinary forum would result in casualties, but once they did, no innocent person had been found.

The information obtained after the investigation by the investigation team shows that the crimes committed by those people are often stuck in the loopholes of the law or the evidence is insufficient, which makes them subject to little legal sanctions, or escaped the law from the very beginning. pay any price.

Their deaths allowed another group of people who were tormented in hatred day and night and almost embarked on the road of revenge, to obtain redemption.

Because of this, many people who have accepted the task of the extraordinary forum and learned the truth afterwards will have a wonderful feeling in their hearts.

It's as if... the insignificant actions they have made have contributed to the execution of "justice" and saved the hearts of truly innocent people corrupted by hatred.

With the clues provided by the brothers and sisters, Xue Hao used his family's network to investigate the waiter and found something wrong.

It was also an accidental falling into the water, and the place was in the river in the suburbs.It happened just ten years ago, when two children went out together, one accidentally fell into the water, and the other survived the catastrophe.The waiter was another child who survived the catastrophe.

After the incident, the family of the dead child did not give up, and always believed that the child's death was not accidental, but murder.

They learned from their son's friends that the two people who went out together were not good friends, but had always had resentments. Their son had been bullied unilaterally for a long time, and this time most of them were asked out to threaten him with money... The police also found The dead child still had traces of being beaten...

Many details and clues point to the fact that the two did not agree and the latter impulsively pushed him into the water, but there is insufficient evidence.The person accused admitted that he had bullied and beaten the deceased, but he did not admit that he had anything to do with him accidentally falling into the water.Ten years later, the death of this person gave the investigation team a good reason to investigate him inside and out, and finally discovered the truth hidden for many years in his hidden diary.

——The accidental falling into the water back then was really not an accident.

Although Chaofan Forum did not know where to learn the truth of the incident that year, and implemented the ruling in its own way.

After finding out the truth, Xue Hao was relieved. He didn't have the idea that the murderer must be brought to justice, as long as he didn't hurt innocent people.At the same time, a sense of disbelief suddenly arose in his heart.

During this period of time, no matter whether it was the revival of spiritual energy, the spread of martial arts practice all over the world, or accepting the mission of a mysterious organization and becoming a part of "doing justice for the heavens"...all of these are so incredible, it is almost like It is the plot that takes place in the novel.

"There should be a lot of people who secretly joined the organization behind Chaofan Forum and became their real members..." After thinking about everything, Xue Hao suddenly realized.

…Especially those who have participated in the mission, maybe they still like the feeling of carrying out justice and redeeming others in their own way?Even Xue Hao has a little sense of accomplishment.

Since the forum users are selected to accept the task through an unknown special method, the ones chosen will definitely not be people who dislike this kind of "walking on behalf of the sky". The process of completing the task is to further screen the opponent's personality and ability. It can subtly increase like-minded people's favor towards the organization behind Chaofan Forum... I don't know if this last point is intentional or unintentional.

I have to say, this kind of silent recruitment of like-minded people...

"The existence behind that extraordinary forum is really amazing!"

Recalling what happened back then, Xue Hao couldn't help sighing.

"Of course!" Shi Cheng, who had been driving the whole time, answered without hesitation, and said as a matter of course, "With such a powerful transcendent behind the forum, what are you worried about?"

No, I'm not talking about this matter... Just as Xue Hao wanted to refute, Shi Cheng had already stepped on the brakes and pulled out the car key.

He motioned others to look out the window: "Here we are."

Among the mountains and green trees, a mountain villa stands quietly.

"This is what the person on the forum mentioned, the residence of the collector who is said to have many collections of antiquities."
