Chapter 186 Chen Tianwen is in trouble
Pantheon!
Xiao Jie remembered this name. He had mentioned it when he was inquiring for information from Ramen Brother. It is one of the most powerful guilds in the game and also the most mysterious. Unlike other large guilds, the Pantheon only recruits a very small number of members, but each of them is a master.

Since there is very little interaction with ordinary players, there is little relevant information.

He was a little surprised. He didn't expect that killing two people would attract so much attention and make him a hot topic all of a sudden.

"You want me to join the Pantheon?"

The magician smiled and said, "No, I am giving you a chance - to join the Pantheon. It is not easy to join our Pantheon. I can only say that you have the potential."

Xiao Jie was speechless. You guys are too pretentious in recruiting people. You took the initiative to find me and give me a chance? I may not be happy with it.

The divine demon continued, "If you want to truly join the Pantheon, you need to complete the test issued by my Lord. Only after passing the test can you officially join. Of course, all this is after you accept this invitation."

Xiao Jie asked: "What are the benefits of joining the Pantheon?"

"Hahaha, that's a huge benefit. As I said before, it touches upon the real core content of this game—becoming an immortal, becoming a god, and becoming a being that transcends mortals.

All major guilds in this game are searching for this kind of power, and I can say responsibly that our Pantheon is the most recent to have succeeded.

I think you must have imagined such power before. Once you master such power, not to mention in the game, even in reality, you will become an existence beyond the secular laws and no longer be bound by any legal order. At that time, we are the order. "

Xiao Jie thought to himself, wow, this Pantheon has big ambitions, but why does it feel so childish?
By the way, do you big guilds like to fool people so much? The Dragon Knights' plan to unify the world is already quite childish, but at least it is feasible. You always want to go beyond the secular law... By the way, shouldn't I report it to the Player Management Bureau?

He played dumb and said, "But I think what Long Xing Tian Xia said makes sense. If we can unify the entire game and gather the strength of all players, then we can truly explore the core content of this game. After all, there is strength in numbers."

The magician sneered, "Hahahaha, you don't really believe his theory, do you? If so, I can only say that your understanding of the game is too superficial. Maybe I should consider whether to send you this invitation."

"Oh, what do you think?"

"You've become so strong at level 15. I guess you must have encountered many adventures. But haven't you noticed one thing? All adventures are one-time. Once triggered, no one will encounter them again."

Xiao Jie was slightly stunned, and after recalling it carefully, it seemed to be true.

"In this game, you can level up by killing monsters, get equipment by beating bosses, and learn skills from NPCs. Naturally, everyone can play these game contents, but at most, this will only allow you to train a high-level physical profession. To put it bluntly, you are just a higher-level cannon fodder.

A truly powerful person must come into contact with the essence of the extraordinary power and become a noble magician, and the only way to do this is through a fortuitous encounter.

But the adventures in this game are limited, so no matter what, only a few people are destined to reach the pinnacle of power in this game.

The Pantheon will be the final winner. As long as you join us, a magic career advancement is the most basic benefit. At the same time, you can get the opportunity to explore extraordinary powers with us. Once successful, we will become true immortal gods. How about this, is it enough?"

Xiao Jie had to admit that if he had not inherited the legacy of the ancient Qi Refiners - these words were indeed tempting enough.

The mere advancement of a magic profession is exciting enough, not to mention the pie in the sky of becoming a god.

But the problem is that we already have a way, and it’s the kind that goes straight to the heavens, and there are two gods to ensure the quality of the route.

From what the old fellow said, they are only close, and are still far from achieving the goal of truly becoming gods or immortals.

Xiao Jie deliberately acted excited.

"Holy crap, is this true? Magical advancement? But why me? There are so many masters in this game, and I'm only level 15."

“Haha, because most of the players in this game are a bunch of mediocre people, just ants in the mortal world. No matter how high their level is, they are just some high-level cannon fodder.

What we in the Pantheon need is a truly strong person, and judging from your performance today, you have such potential, so I gave you this invitation."

"Well, I need to think about it carefully."

"Of course, but don't think about it too long. The number of places in our Pantheon is limited. Once you miss it, you will never have this opportunity again. So goodbye, Yin Yue Sui Feng." The Taoist in gray robe said, and his figure suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

Is it an invisibility technique? Xiao Jie thought with some doubt.

No, it’s not invisibility. If it was invisibility, there would definitely be footsteps... The other party is a fairy magician, so it might be a spell more advanced than invisibility.

But it’s really a dilemma, the Dragon Knights and the Pantheon, or just choose neither?
"What a pretense." Yuan Bai's voice interrupted Xiao Jie from his thoughts. Turning around, he saw Yuan Bai not far away had climbed up and continued to eat and drink.

Xiao Jie walked back to his original position.

"Senior, you heard what I said just now." Xiao Jie wanted to ask for advice, so he addressed him differently.

"You said it so loudly, of course I heard it."

"Do you think I should join?"

"How would I know? I just want to enjoy life and be happy. I don't have as many weird thoughts as you humans."

"Senior, have you ever thought about becoming an immortal or a god? Or creating a great empire?"

"Hahahaha, if becoming an immortal is really that cool and majestic, why would the two immortals hide on the top of the mountain to play chess in the breeze? You haven't even figured out this problem yet and you're already thinking about all that. I think you humans are not as smart as you say, idiot."

As he said this, he poured himself another glass of wine and drank it down in gulps.

Xiao Jie thought to himself that as a monkey, of course you have no desires or requests, but as a human being, how could it be so easy to be satisfied?

He was still undecided, "Big Brother, you take your time to eat and drink. I'll go and rest for a while."

As he said that, he went to the innkeeper to book a room, logged off, and then quit the game.

He was somewhat confused at this time. He understood the principle of taking shelter under a big tree. Of course, it was also nice to be free and easy in completing tasks alone.

But should he join the Dragon Knights, join the Pantheon, or continue to be alone?

After exiting the game, Xiao Jie opened the QQ group.

Yin Yue Sui Feng: Excuse me, does anyone among you know about the Dragon Knights and the Pantheon?

Niu Baoguo: Why are you asking this?
Liu Xingyu: I don’t know much about the Pantheon, I just know that the Dragon Knights are quite powerful.

Northern Gun King: The Dragon Soaring Knights are awesome. Our Longhuazhou State Guards have had many conflicts with the border troops of Fengyinzhou. We often encounter the Dragon Soaring Knights on the battlefield. They are very powerful. If it weren't for the tacit understanding, I'm afraid many people would have died. I heard that the Dragon Soaring Knights are about to slay the dragon and establish a country.

An Ran: If you want to ask about the Pantheon, go ask Wentian Wuji. He used to be a member of the Pantheon.

Xiao Jie was surprised. What the hell? This is such a coincidence.

Yin Yue Sui Feng: Is Brother Wen Tian here?

There was no reply. Xiao Jie @wentianwuji and sent another message, but there was still no reply.

I guess he was playing games...

Xiao Jie thought about it and simply picked up the phone. Ever since he asked Wen Tian Wuji to interpret the Human Way Chapter of the Nameless Taoist Scripture last time, the two of them had exchanged phone numbers, which came in handy now.

The phone kept beeping, beeping, beeping, beeping for a long time, but no one answered.

Xiao Jie felt something was wrong. Could something have happened?

The reason why I thought so was because the last time I went to his house, Chen Tianwen had set up a lot of formations outside the hall of the house and said that he had made an enemy.

Since the phone was not connected at this time, Xiao Jie couldn't help but have such associations.

After a while, I made another call, but still no one answered.

It's broken! It can't be true.

Why don’t you go and see for yourself?
As soon as this thought came to Xiao Jie's mind, he hesitated again. What if Chen Tianwen was really found by his enemies and something happened? What if the bad guys didn't leave yet and took care of him?
Although I have learned peerless sword techniques and comprehended their mysteries, I have never used them in real life.

He closed his eyes, feeling the passage of time, feeling...

Disillusionment - it should be possible to make it happen.

But this is not enough. If the opponent can really deal with Wentian Wuji, then at least his level and strength are not weaker than him. I am just a level 15 account, and it will be difficult for me to defeat him even if I know peerless martial arts.

How about going with someone in the group?

No, damn it, I'm crazy. I should call the police for things like this.

Of course, he was not an ordinary policeman. Xiao Jie directly called the man in the black windbreaker.

He was the special operative who had asked him to sign the Old Country Player Management Act.

At that time, that person said that in the future, if there are any illegal or criminal cases or emergencies related to games, they can contact him.

I dialed the number and the other party answered it soon.

"Hello, is this Brother Lin?"

A familiar voice in black windbreaker came from the other end of the line, "Brother Yin Yue Sui Feng, you really keep us busy."

"Um, what does Brother Lin mean?" Just as he finished speaking, a news message was pushed to his phone.

Xiao Jie clicked on it and read the content. It was roughly as follows: a corpse was dismembered in a certain city. A cleaner in a villa found that the owner had died unexpectedly while cleaning the villa...

Xiao Jie suddenly felt a little embarrassed, as if he was caught doing something bad. This guy should be Xiong Ba, of course it could also be Yun Xiaoke. Both of them died tragically.

Another push notification, but this time it was not news. It was obviously a photo of the death scene taken by the police. Well, the one just now was indeed Xiong Ba, and this time it was Yun Xiaoke.

Looking at the mosaic pictures in the news, although they are blurry and no details can be seen, they still give people a shocking feeling.

The second photo of the scene is even more creepy.

Did you do all this yourself?
Xiao Jie felt something was unreal when he watched the news, after all, he was just playing games... He couldn't help but feel a sense of relief tinged with malice, but also a little horrified. Although he knew that these two people would definitely die, seeing the result with his own eyes was another feeling.

"Feel sorry."

"No need to apologize. Killing people in your game is better than killing people in real life. Besides, the dead are all gamers, which complies with the provisions of the Old Country Player Management Act. Just don't cause trouble for me in real life. Tell me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Ask Tian Wuji, do you know?"

"Of course I know. He is a key surveillance target in this city."

"Something seems to have happened to him. He didn't answer the phone just now, and..."

Xiao Jie cryptically recounted his concerns, but the voice on the other end of the line became serious. "Wait a moment, keep your phone open, I'll contact the person right away."

Xiao Jie didn't know who the other party wanted to contact, but he could feel the seriousness of the other party.

Less than three minutes later, the phone rang again.

"Sure enough, something happened. Get ready and I'll send someone to pick you up."

"I also need to go?"

"Of course, if this is true, you have an obligation as the reporter. Moreover, according to Article 5 of the Old Country Player Management Act, Old Country Players should provide necessary professional services under reasonable conditions when required by relevant departments."

Xiao Jie was speechless. This was truly a sudden disaster. It really was risky to do good things these days.

But this matter really cannot be avoided. We can't just know that something has happened and not report it.

Fifteen minutes later, Xiao Jie sat in the back seat of a black SUV.

On the left is a soldier in black, and in the front passenger seat, a man in a black windbreaker is talking on the phone with a serious expression.

"Brother Lin..."

"Call Captain Lin." The man in the black windbreaker said, "My people are already outside the villa. Come in with me later. Hey, why did you bring a knife with you?"

Xiao Jie looked at the high-manganese steel sword in his arms. He had spent a lot of money to buy this thing since the last time the Xiuchun Sword was broken. High-manganese steel swords have high toughness, good wear resistance and impact resistance. With the added internal force, it should not break easily.

"Just in case. After all, I am also a swordsman."

"Aren't you a beast tamer?"

Uh... Xiao Jie was a little surprised, and suddenly realized that the other party's monitoring of the game might be more strict than he imagined.

"Captain Lin knows my profession?"

"Of course, our monitoring of the game is very comprehensive."

"If you want such close monitoring, why not just intervene in the game?"

"How do you know we didn't intervene?" Captain Lin said casually.

"So there are people from your team in the game?"

"I will neither admit it nor deny it."

The words sounded somewhat familiar. Xiao Jie wanted to continue to gather information, but the car suddenly stopped with a squeak.

It turns out we have arrived.

The door of Chen Tianwen's villa was surrounded by black-clad soldiers.

Judging from the badge, they should be special forces of a special department. They are well-equipped with live ammunition. Their faces cannot be seen clearly because of the black masks they wear. A murderous aura is exuding from them.

This should be a special force. Xiao Jie looked at the soldiers around him and couldn't help but weigh the combat effectiveness of these people in his heart.

If I don't use my ultimate move, I'll probably die in the first encounter. I'll be shot at by random bullets. No matter how good my martial arts skills are or how fast I am, I can't be faster than the bullets.

If you use the Phantom, you can easily kill two or three in seconds, but then you will probably be taught a lesson by the bullets.

But if you activate the ultimate move——

Xiao Jie glanced around and estimated that no one within ten steps could escape.

But - he looked at the surrounding buildings and could vaguely sense that there should be snipers ambushing on some commanding heights. If that happened, he would still be finished.

After a quick calculation, Xiao Jie realized that no matter how high his martial arts skills were, he would have no advantage against modern weapons. The most he could do was to kill a few more before he died.

These are just ordinary ground troops. If armored vehicles and helicopters are deployed, it will be even more of an issue.

But if it's a spell...

At this time, Captain Lin called a soldier.

"What's going on inside?"

"Captain Lin, we've called, but there's no response. We can conclude that the target has lost the ability to communicate. We found some special defense systems around the villa, and our people got lost after entering. Request the use of explosive weapons."

Through the gate, Xiao Jie could see several soldiers in black running around in the pile of rocks. There were obviously passages all around, but they were groping for a way out, as if they were performing a pantomime.

It looked a bit funny, but Xiao Jie had experienced the power of this formation before, so he was not surprised.

Although it looks like just an ordinary pile of rocks from the outside, I'm afraid that the people inside are seeing a completely different and bizarre scene.

“Permission granted.”

"Group A, Group A, use of explosive weapons is permitted."

The soldiers who were looking around immediately stopped moving and began to install explosives around them.

Xiao Jie was pulled behind the wall by Captain Lin.

Boom! After a few low explosions,
When Xiao Jie walked into the yard, he found that several piles of rocks had been blown into pieces on the ground, and the formation was also broken.

This method of breaking the formation is really simple and crude.

The soldiers in front entered the hall of the villa, and soon there were several more explosions.

After a few minutes of violent demolition along the way, Xiao Jie followed Team Lin to Chen Tianwen's bedroom.

The leading soldier did not rush to push the door, but took out a strange instrument and scanned the door.

"Captain, no special energy reaction was found."

"Then push the door."

Bang! The door was kicked open.

Several black-clad soldiers quickly rushed into the room, and a few seconds later—"Safe!"

Captain Lin then pulled Xiao Jie in.

"Captain, we have found the target, and he is in a coma."

When Xiao Jie and Captain Lin walked over, they saw Chen Tianwen sitting on a chair facing the window. His face was as pale as gold paper, and he was motionless, as if he was dead.

Xiao Jie felt a little uneasy. He was used to fighting to the death in the game, but in the current situation, Chen Tianwen was obviously attacked in reality, and the opponent was most likely a magic user.

This made him suddenly realize that reality was not absolutely safe.

He took another look at the black-clad special police officers and the special instruments in their hands, and then he felt more at ease.

The man in the black windbreaker touched Chen Tianwen's neck and breathed a sigh of relief, "He's not dead, send him to the hospital immediately."
