However, the sickle is not meant to get close.
He had heard about the performer's deeds. He was an exorcist who had reached level 60 before he was thirty years old. He had served as a senior team leader of the strategy group for level 50 to 60 exorcists at the headquarters, but he disappeared after reaching level 60.
According to the guild's rules, those above level 60 are eligible to open a branch. For example, he himself is exactly level 60 and has been stuck at this level for a long time.
If he was a performer, he must be an exorcist of a higher rank than him by now.
Before this, Scythe had always thought that he had gone somewhere to open a new branch, but he never expected that he is now working as a Xin faction aircraft pilot.
They are really powerful...Sickle couldn't help but secretly admire the wealth of Xin faction.
But Jiang Lu didn't know all this. He was just thinking that he had boasted about how awesome he was, saying that he would let Scythe take a ride, but now he said that he couldn't bring anyone with him. It was really embarrassing.
Therefore, Jiang Lu, who loves his reputation, grabbed the performer's hand and said tenderly, "Is it really not possible?"
The performer still had a smile on his face, and then used his other hand to pull at Jiang Lu's hand as if to scrape off the chewing gum stuck on his hand: "It's really not possible."
"Why don't you ask former President Xin?"
"Let me remind you that the first word is completely redundant."
"It doesn't matter what you call it, just ask."
"No need to ask. After all, he didn't mention it specifically. The list will never be wrong."
"Then he hasn't specifically refused, doesn't that mean that the list can be added?"
"Isn't that sophistry?"
"No, it's called the Brother Ba Formula."
Although Jian Dao was touched by Jiang Lu's act of pleading for him, he did not want to cause any trouble because of himself, and he did not want to owe others such a big favor just for a ride, so he stopped Jiang Lu: "It's okay, I'll just drive there."
"How can that be? I've already promised you."
At this time, the performer also noticed something.
It seems that Jiang Lu is using Xin faction's resources to do himself a favor.
He looked down upon this practice, but because Jiang Lu was the passenger assigned by Xin Yuanxing, he could not say much. However, his impression of Jiang Lu had already fallen to the bottom.
"So you should ask. Our branch president was supposed to go to the headquarters for something very important."
"So what's the important matter?" The performer looked at the sickle with interest.
"The Chishan branch and the Qinghu branch negotiated with Heiyu due to some frictions and gained many benefits, including the initiative to sign some contracts, so they need to report to the president for a decision." Scythe answered seriously.
His explanation was very concise, but the performer's expression gradually became serious.
"This is a big deal." He changed his attitude and said to the sickle, "Wait a moment, I'll ask President Xin."
Although the current position of president is not held by a member of the Xin faction, this concerns the interests of the entire guild. The performer did not dare to take it lightly and immediately chose to ask his superiors for instructions.
Soon, he got a reply, and then said to the sickle: "President Xin agreed, and asked me to take you there as quickly as possible, come up."
Scythe breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you very much."
"They are all family members."
Jiang Lu also breathed a sigh of relief. Although the direction was different from what he expected, the result was the same after all. He was not wrong.
Following Scythe, he also got on the helicopter.
With his seatbelt fastened and headphones on, the performer pulled the lever: "Sit tight, I'm going fast!"
After that, the helicopter's propeller started again, and the powerful push on his back made Jiang Lu sink deeply into the embedded seat.
But not long after, as the helicopter rose to a predetermined height and began to move forward, Jiang Lu began to feel much more comfortable due to inertia.
This was his first time riding in a helicopter, and since he didn't have to fly the plane himself like he did last time in the wasteland, it was much easier and he felt very relaxed.
Sometimes he asked the performer what those colorful buttons were for, and sometimes he was so bored that he leaned his head against the glass and looked down because the performer ignored him.
Huang Xiu'e was also placed in a baby seat by him, and she looked around curiously with her big eyes.
"Why haven't you said anything?" Jiang Lu suddenly turned his head and asked the sickle who was sitting upright and staring at the front: "Are you nervous?"
"No, not nervous."
"But your hands are full of blue veins, and they're white where you hold the handrails."
"I...I just..."
Scythe sighed, "I think I'm afraid of heights."
"Ah? You're afraid of heights? What do you mean by "as if"?"
"I didn't know I was afraid of heights before, but when I looked down just now, I felt terrible..."
"Then do you want me to pull up the explosion-proof armor so that you can't see outside?" the performer suddenly asked.
"Can't you hear me? Are you pretending?" Jiang Lu asked dissatisfiedly, but the performer still pretended to be selectively deaf.
"That...that would be best."
After hearing his answer, the performer pressed some button and a layer of armor quickly rose up from the outside of the glass surrounding the helicopter, wrapping the entire helicopter.
Except for the glass in front of the cockpit, through which only the blue sky and white clouds can be seen from the back seat, the other windows are pitch black and nothing can be seen.
Jiang Lu suddenly felt disappointed, but since Bingdao was indeed afraid of heights, there was nothing he could do and he couldn't say anything.
The cabin suddenly became dim, and there was nothing left that could attract Jiang Lu's attention.
Well, but it’s a good opportunity for me to continue to complete my design... Jiang Lu thought so and prepared to enter the spiritual realm to continue to perfect his new species.
So he said to the sickle, "Take a nap," and closed his eyes, letting his body enter a state of emptiness. His spirit left the body and plunged into the spiritual realm.
"Hmm..." The sickle, who was feeling uncomfortable, just nodded and didn't notice anything unusual.
However, the performer in front seemed to sense something. He turned his head in surprise and frowned as he looked at Jiang Lu with his eyes closed.
After looking for a few times, he slowly turned around and looked forward again, but his heart was shocked.
Is this...is this the state of 'selflessness' that I have been pursuing?
Chairman Xin demonstrated it in front of me once, and it can’t be wrong!
But why...
Although President Xin was just demonstrating it briefly, why is the ethereal aura on you so much stronger?
No wonder you asked me to pick you up. It turns out that President Xin wanted me to know that there are always people who are better than you.
But you look so young, how could it be, how could it be?!
The performer's pupils were shaking, and no one knew what kind of intense shock he was experiencing.
His hand holding the joystick was shaking slightly, and his vision was gradually losing focus because he was thinking about other things.
With his mind in a mess, he did not notice the subtle changes in the clouds ahead...
......
"The sickle..."
After approving the performer's request, Xin Yuanxing quickly found out what happened recently in the Chishan branch through his intelligence network, and muttered to himself thoughtfully:
"Although his stubborn character has not been tempered at all and he is still not suitable for administrative work, his toughness is unexpectedly sharp when dealing with foreign countries."
Having a slight advantage in the game with Heiyu was naturally nothing in his eyes.
He pays more attention to the cultivation of talents.
It had already entered his sight long before the sickle was mature.
However, his evaluation of the sickle at that time was: It is easy to break if it is too hard, and it will be of little use if it is not sharpened.
That's why he was assigned to Chishan City to open up a new branch. On the one hand, we wanted him to change his way of doing things and be more tactful after being in the position. On the other hand, it was also to protect him. After all, people with such a character would inevitably be excluded in a place like the headquarters where there are all kinds of people. It would be better for him to go to open up new areas where the environment is purer.
But now, after he stepped down and no longer served as the president, he has become more open-minded and no longer looks at people with the same mindset as before, only caring about whether the people under him can be used by him and whether they are useful or not.
He was more concerned about teaching students in accordance with their aptitude. He was not thinking about changing them, but about how to help them find things that suit them.
From this perspective, the sickle seems to be very suitable for diplomacy.
No matter what, someone who is very principled towards his own people will naturally be tougher towards external parties. With him around, the guild will never suffer any loss.
Just as he was thinking about whether he should find an opportunity to have a good talk with Scythe this time, someone suddenly knocked on his door.
"Enter."
The door was pushed open and a man dressed as a secretary rushed in.
"President Xin, it's bad, the performer has disappeared!"
"What do you mean disappeared?" Xin Yuanxing frowned.
"We just lost all contact." The secretary said as if he had seen a ghost: "The helicopter signal, his information in the list of the exorcist system, all of them are gone!"
"How could this be?" Xin Yuanxing immediately opened his exorcist panel.
But what made him unbelievable was
The performer, Sickle, and Jiang Lu, three contacts, all disappeared without a trace from his friend list.
......
Jiang Lu looked at the dim light around him and the desolate wilderness that looked like something out of a ghost story. He turned around and questioned the performer: "You said you were driving fast, but you didn't say you were going to crash."
"I've told you so many times, this is not a plane crash, this is entering a randomly descended spiritual realm!" The performer was almost going crazy.
Jiang Lu spread his hands, looking helpless: "MAN, what can I say?"
Chapter 278: Blank Reincarnation! Show your true abilities when you come to another world!
Jiang Lu had never heard of the existence of a spiritual realm that appeared randomly.
Of course, not only him, but many exorcists of this level did not know that in addition to the spiritual realm that could be entered through the exorcist system, there were also spiritual realms that descended randomly in the world.
This is because the randomly descending spiritual realms are natural disasters outside the safe zone. They are often spiritual realms that have not been successfully conquered in the past. After their arrival, they have evolved into sources of pollution that can affect the real world, and continue to spread like cancer cells, floating around.
The areas affected by it naturally become dangerous areas and no-man's land, and most exorcists enter the spiritual realm in the safe zone. Before they grow up, they will hardly leave the city.
And even if they go out of the city, low-level exorcists, such as the representatives sent by the Qinghu branch, will mostly take the safe roads that have been opened up.
Even though the randomly descending spirit realms will wander around and pollute safe areas, it is not easy to encounter such a situation unless the exorcist's level reaches a certain level.
