As time passed, more and more people called the TV station. The employees who answered the phone didn't even have time to eat. They were dizzy and hungry. Those with weaker physical conditions even fainted from hunger and were sent to the hospital.
After the assistant learned about the situation, he ran to ask the president in confusion, "No. 17 does not accept voluntary registrations, so it should be planned to go to the public to find students in person. Then what is the point of our publicity? Isn't publicity meant to attract more people to sign up?"
The president was calm and explained without any panic that he had his own considerations.
It’s not complicated, it all reflects Russia’s attitude.
When Hogwarts and the Holy Gate were recruiting students, didn’t China and Yingguo make a grand gesture?
The TV station promoted it and set up a professional department to connect with the extraordinary people to assist students in passing the exam. If I don’t show my importance, it will be bad if No. 17 thinks I am being disrespectful.
As he was speaking, the president slapped his forehead and realized that his extraordinary department was nowhere to be seen, so he had to act quickly.
So the assistant who came in a hurry not only did not reduce his own work, but also received a new task - to set up an extraordinary department.
It was bustling here, but Zhang Mu was very relaxed.
He said that going out for a stroll was not an excuse to get away, but he really turned into an ordinary Russian and wandered around the streets of Moscow.
It was not until dark that I entered the "world" from the barrel entrance, passed the exit at Amei, and arrived at my own workshop.
Two extraordinary characters will appear tomorrow - Tefan and Tefan's teacher.
Zhang Mu doesn't know how to clone himself, so he can only use a puppet to replace one of them.
The protagonist of this meeting with the Russian President is Teacher Tefan. When the two sides have a few words, they will inevitably have to show their true selves, and it is naturally more convenient to show their true selves, so Zhang Mu spent several hours making a Tefan doll.
It doesn't need too many functions, just being able to talk is fine.
The preliminary work was ready, and Zhang Mu passed through the "world" light gates between the two places and arrived at the streets of Moscow from Amei.
Looking around, everyone nearby was enthusiastically discussing how many lucky Russians would be admitted as No. 17.
"How many? Five, probably, the same for everyone." Zhang Mu muttered, activated the shadow technique, and rushed towards Crimea.
Chapter 331 Chapter 336 Go, Find It
Farid's exercise at home did not last long. Early the next morning, he was called to the Crimean Palace by the presidential assistant.
At first Farid thought that Tefan’s teacher had come, but later he found out that the president wanted to set up a department specifically to connect with the supernatural and handle domestic supernatural events, just like the Super Power Bureau of Ying Country and the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau of China.
As a member of the Security Bureau and with a close relationship with Tefan, he is the most suitable person to be in charge of this matter.
After understanding the whole story, Farid did not refuse. He gladly accepted the order and prepared to recruit candidates.
Just as he was about to leave the Crimean Palace, he saw Tefan following a strong man, and the two of them walked into the palace gate together.
He had seen the image of the sturdy man in the video sent by the President, and the fact that Tefan followed him obediently proved his identity, so he would naturally not make a mistake.
Chaofan came to visit, and his chance to be selected also came. Farid no longer cared about the organizing department and took the two back to the president's office where affairs were handled.
Farid walked in front and pushed open the door. The president heard the footsteps and looked up. Seeing that it was him, he was still puzzled: "You are not going..."
It was not until the two people behind came in that he realized what was going on. He subconsciously stopped talking and stared at the burly man.
The burly man looked around and finally his eyes fell on the president's face: "Are you the president of Russia?"
The rough tone startled him and he stood up quickly: "It's me, sir, hello, how...how should I address you?"
The president swore that he was not as excited as he is today on the day he was elected, and even stumbled over his words.
Not caring about his somewhat rude behavior, the sturdy man walked up to him and faced him across the desk: "First of all, I want to thank you. My stupid student got lost in Moscow for a whole day, and you helped him find the entrance to No. 17."
"That's not true. Tefan is a Russian superhero. As the president, it is my job to help my own people." The president's tone was full of sincerity.
The sturdy man seemed to be in a hurry and had no interest in continuing the polite conversation. He got straight to the point: "Tefan has already told you about the matter, right?"
"Yes, I made it clear yesterday."
“Well, very good.” Nodding, he continued, “Let me add a few points.
First of all, I don’t understand why the old friends who founded No. 17 want to help you go to the moon. Well, in my opinion, technological advancement is actually quite useless.
But he has made up his mind and asked me for help, so I have no choice but to do my part. So please pay attention to the deal and don't cause any trouble for me.
Otherwise, I will be annoyed and might give up halfway."
"I understand." Hearing that the burly man seemed to be dissatisfied with the deal, the president became a little nervous and dug his palms hard with his nails to avoid looking panicked.
“Then, my personality is that if I’m going to do something, I’ll do it to the best of my ability.
The progress of the spacecraft projects of China and Ying country has reached more than half, and Amei has also started construction with the support of Lao Gao. You have to hurry up.
Hmm...it's a bit too much to ask you to surpass them, but it should be okay to catch up, right?"
If it were an ordinary country, the president would probably have agreed without hesitation, but the three countries mentioned by the strong man all had Blue Star at the top and had extraordinary support, so he suddenly hesitated and was speechless.
Farid saw this and felt very anxious.
What happened to the president?
When I met the Ame leaders in the past, they were always very eloquent. Why are they so hesitant today?
Although Teacher Tefan has a fierce aura, his image isn't scary, right?
Aren't I fine?
However, the president was in a difficult situation at the moment. He wanted to use the fact that the three countries started the project first as an excuse to ask No. 17 to provide more assistance. However, he was stared at by the strong man with a pair of indifferent eyes. He felt that he would be torn to pieces by his rage the next moment he opened his mouth.
If the president heard Farid's inner voice, he would probably curse at him. Why don't you look him in the eye?
The sturdy man probably sensed what the president was worried about, and said, "Just say what you want to say. You're just being a woman if you keep dithering."
Why does this extraordinary man's language style resemble that of Chinese people...
Even though he was muttering in his heart, the president still used the respectful title, because he didn't know whether the mysterious extraordinary person had the ability to hear the voice of the heart.
The president swallowed to ease his dry throat: "That's right, sir, of the three countries you mentioned, two are not weaker than Russia.
The only country that was on the decline, Ying, regained its former glory with the full help of Hogwarts.
so……"
"Are you blaming No. 17 for showing up too late?" The sturdy man hugged his chest with arms as thick as his thighs and raised his chin slightly.
"No, no, I didn't mean that." The president subconsciously followed the politicians' habit of beating around the bush, but he didn't want to cause the strong man to misunderstand him, so he quickly explained, and then he didn't dare to continue talking nonsense, and said quickly,
“It would be hard for me to catch up with them without strong support.”
As if he was worried that the strong man would think that he was lying to get a favor, he emphasized: "You can verify my words by just investigating casually."
"Hmm..." The sturdy man tapped his arm with his index finger for a while, "Indeed... Let me make the decision. The first batch of materials for building the spacecraft will be given to you.
I'll send you a few more workers."
How many workers?
Both Farid and the president were a little confused. "Several" was an uncertain number, but one thing was certain: it was a single digit.
Let’s count based on the highest single-digit number, which is nine people.
How much can nine people increase construction speed?
The two were stunned for a few seconds, and the sturdy man raised his thick eyebrows: "I advise you not to underestimate it... Never mind, you will know when the time comes."
"Okay, okay." After coming to his senses, the president responded.
"The workers will be here soon, so you should hurry up and prepare to start work. Then... let's talk about another thing."
coming!
The opportunity to become extraordinary was right before their eyes, and Farid and the president's eyes lit up.
"Tefan has also told you that No. 17 plans to recruit a group of students from Blue Star, tentatively five people."
There are five new disciples in the mountain gate, five new students in Hogwarts, and now there are also five students in No. 17. It is hard for the president not to wonder whether the three extraordinary forces are competing for something.
However, the strong man had no intention of revealing it, and he did not have the courage to ask, so he continued, "I have already vigorously promoted it in the country, and now almost all citizens know about it.
They are all eager and enthusiastic about being selected as No. 17, and we guarantee that you will find students who meet your requirements. "
"Whether the conditions satisfy me depends on their performance."
"Of course."
Farid pretended to be brave and interrupted, "Sir, number 17 does not accept self-registration. Are you going to select the students yourself?
Is there anything we can do to help?”
"No need." The sturdy man said, and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
The president was stunned. What happened? Why did he leave so suddenly? What about recruiting students?
Fortunately, Tefan was still standing in the middle of the room, so he was not left without anyone to ask.
"Mr. Tefan, your teacher..."
"He went to arrange the test questions."
"What is the test question?" The two of them were eager to step into the extraordinary world. When they heard the test questions appear, they asked anxiously.
"You'll see it when you go out."
The president and Farid looked at each other and rushed out the door at the same time.
"Oh my God..." They saw the strong man at a glance and were stunned.
At this time, they were very sure that not only they, but everyone in the Crimean Palace and even the whole of Russia could see the strong man.
It should be in the mountains outside Moscow. The strong man's body grew taller and turned into a giant.
Farid couldn't estimate the exact height with his eyes, because the giant's head and broad shoulders were obscured by the clouds, leaving only a vast chest that looked like a plain.
Looking down, you can see your legs standing among the endless mountain ranges. The majestic mountains have peaks that barely reach your calves, like a small mound in front of the door.
Finally, the strong man's voice came out from the clouds like a low and melodious bell.
"Five wolf bones are scattered on the ground. Whoever finds them will be selected as number seventeen. Go and find them."
As soon as he finished speaking, the giant spread out his fist that was like a mountain, and five dazzling balls of light flew out of his palm, each flying away in a different direction.
Afterwards, the giant's figure gradually became illusory until it disappeared completely.
The two people who were standing in a daze in the middle of the courtyard gradually came to their senses and lowered their stiff necks.
"If you find the wolf bones, you will be selected..."
