ant from the central hub."The captain seemed to have realized something and stopped walking.And the ripples' companions, they were already tense, ready to react instantly if things went wrong. They wo...She glanced at the four people walking towards her, spotting Gong Fan in their midst. She raised an eyebrow slightly, her expression remaining unchanged, and addressed Shi Ju who was amidst the commotion:

"You're such a jinx!"

"No wonder, the plot is just too powerful."

Ripple knew there were four people who would be by her side. Through the original body's memories, she also knew who they were. However, because of what she said to He Yi and Ji Bei before leaving, she thought Gong Fan wouldn't be among them this time, but unexpectedly, it was still these four people.

As her gaze swept across the four individuals, she saw from her original body's memories the gruesome fates that awaited them. She blinked immediately, concealing all emotion in her eyes.

The tallest of the four stepped forward and spoke first.

“The cloud cover, we are the help you brought from Europe. We belong to an international mercenary group called ‘The Cleaners’. To make it easier to follow your activities in Asia, you selected mercenaries with Eastern appearances. However, we come from different countries.”

Are your disguises working out alright

Ripples walked and talked, clearly already in the zone.

"No problem, we've used these identities to operate in Europe while on missions and are fluent in the corresponding languages."

I am their captain, codename Lion, from France, and I am of French-Chinese descent.

The team captain, who was 1.95 meters tall, had a muscular build and a kind face, smiled at Ripples.

"I am Malu, from ML."

A dark-faced man, a head shorter than the captain, continued.

"I am Xuansi, from Country H."

The man has a crew cut hairstyle, the palest skin among the four, standing at 1.8 meters tall. His smile reveals a set of white teeth that could blind you.

"I am Fan, from Country R."

Gong Fan's last self-introduction, he was about the same height as Xuan Si, but he was a typical yellow race person.

"We've all met before at the training base, but now we're working together on a mission. Since you specially brought us in from Europe to help, you need to be familiar with our strengths. This is our public profile; take a look first."

What's written in red above is our hidden skill. You know it, just keep it to yourself and don't tell anyone.

The lion handed Ripples a tablet and brought up their profiles for all four of them.

The ripples quickly scanned over their personal information, even how she had chosen the four people, striving for perfection.

"I've got it. I'll leave it to the four of you from here. I hope we can complete the mission successfully."

Lian Yi, who is one meter and seven tall, stood before the four people like a dwarf. However, she still bowed solemnly to the four people, expressing her gratitude.

"Don't worry, we will protect you."

Xuansi smiled nonchalantly and said.

Although the other three didn't speak, they all nodded in agreement.

The passage opened immediately, and ripples left the airport amidst the embrace of four people.

As soon as Liàn Yī walked out of the airport, she saw a woman in a black business suit and black high heels holding a sign with the words "Yún Yì" written on it. The moment she spotted Liàn Yī, she waved at her eagerly.

Lianshui thought for a moment and immediately confirmed that this was Yilin, Zeng Hongliang's special assistant. She had a high level of education, excellent appearance, and strong abilities. She was Zeng Hongliang's right-hand woman, mainly responsible for internal group affairs. The fact that the other party sent Yilin to pick her up showed that they were truly anxious.

Her sunglasses covered half of her face, she beckoned to the other party, then walked over with four people.

"Sister Yun, you've been on this business trip for quite a while now. I'm getting a bit used to it."

Irene smiled and reached out to take Ripples' arm.

Gong Fan, however, took a step forward and blocked the other person's action with his suitcase handle, leaving Eileen somewhat embarrassed.

"This is Eileen, the boss's right-hand assistant. Please be nice to her from now on."

Since it was both parties' first meeting, Lian Yi naturally introduced them to each other.

"Eileen, this is Fan. He's my personal bodyguard. This trip to Europe went so smoothly thanks to their help. I paid a hefty sum to get them here, don't mind him."

Ripples patted Eileen's arm lightly, explaining faintly as if to give her face.

"I understand."

Eileen blinked her beautiful phoenix eyes, then nodded to the four people behind Ripples as a greeting. She turned and, with five people in tow, went straight to the parking lot. A black business Buick slowly drove up beside them.

The lion had already gotten to the other side of the driver's seat, immediately blocking the rearview mirror and then opening the car door for Ripple and Erin to get in. After the other three got in, he closed the car door and sat directly into the passenger seat, arms crossed, and said to the driver:

"Drive!"

The driver suddenly felt a lot of pressure, nodded, and immediately stepped on the accelerator.

"Sister Yun, the boss said he'll host a welcome dinner for you at a villa in 'Shuijin Jian' villa area. Let's go there directly."

"Actually, there's no need to rush. I think I'll wait until after the time difference is adjusted before going to see the boss."

Ripples languidly leaned back against the backrest, closing her eyes and said.

Eilyn had never doubted Ripple from beginning to end, so she followed Ripple's temper and said:

"Sister Yun, you know the boss is very nervous about this business this time. He's been worried and waiting for your good news since you left a month ago."

Ripple knew the other party wanted to get information from her first, but following Yun Yi's habit, she coldly said:

"When I see the boss, I will explain it to her personally."

Then he was silent.

Irene gave up, knowing she wouldn't get any useful information out of Yunyi. So she kept quiet, and silence fell in the car.

The ripples are communication in the mind's millstone.

"How is Gong Fan still chosen"

I was also curious, I just checked. He Yi referred to your opinion and removed Gong Fan from the candidate list. As a result, he found out and went straight to Ji Bei Gui.

He gave his reasons for why he should be from Jibibei. He didn't buy their arguments and even gave his own reasons why he was the best candidate. Then, he proposed fair competition, saying that if he didn't meet the standard, he would withdraw.

Of course you could have guessed that, after all, he's an expert in firearms and weaponry. He'd be a huge help for your mission this time, so naturally, they kept him around.

"I wanted to avoid complications. As I'm not the original person, I can't reciprocate his feelings. I tried to steer him away from this pitfall, but he still chose the most difficult path! That's why after I told Team He, there was no progress on the mission."

The ripples are also helpless. They want to avoid risks in advance, but the other party perfectly avoids them.

"I don't think this will work, but since you want to try it, I won't stop you. I've looked at their files, these four are the best combination and can help the original person complete the task to the greatest extent. Due to mission reasons, I disagree with you changing the assisting personnel."

The stone mill speaks the truth, in fact, when ripples proposed not letting Gong Fan join, he knew it was 80% unlikely that she would get her wish.st demonic energy wasn't so easy to replenish. The demonic artifact within Ziyun seemed to sense the threat as well, it trembled slightly, as if weighing something."Roar!"A earth-shattering dragon roa...
