Chapter 323 Come to life

Early in the morning, Shanghai Card Engineers Association.

"Have you heard that we have a new vice president?"

"You are talking nonsense, how could I not know about such a big thing?"

"Do you think it has something to do with the incident at the imperial court a while ago? And I heard that he is Master Bai's disciple."

"That should be it? Otherwise, how could there be an extra vice president for no reason?"

Jiang Wang stepped into the door of the association, listened to the whispers around him, and sighed silently in his heart.

As the director of the Secret Realm Office of the Shanghai Card Master Association, he certainly knew that a vice president had been parachuted in.

Even the vice president is his acquaintance.

No, it's not quite right to describe it as an acquaintance, it's better to say that.
"Uncle Jiang."

A hearty voice sounded in his ears, immediately bringing him back to his thoughts.

Jiang Wang looked at the young man in front of him who looked a little more mature than he remembered, and smiled: "Xiao Luo."

"No, shouldn't I call you President Luo now?"

Hearing his teasing, Russell said helplessly: "Uncle Jiang, please don't be like this. Nanxi knows it's time to beat me up."

He still has great respect for this middle-aged man who took good care of him when he was a student.

"Just kidding, just kidding." Jiang Wang couldn't help laughing when he saw Russell's expression. "Speaking of which, Xiao Luo, why did you want to go back to Shanghai?"

"The whole Ming Dynasty should be short of people right now, right?"

Hearing his question, the young man certainly could not tell the truth that it was because the Qi Ling Society was preparing to make a big move in Shanghai, and he volunteered to return to his hometown in order to gather information.

Come to think of it, he is now a Celestial Dragon, although he was a Gangboning before he traveled through time.

In response, Russell just laughed it off: "Compared to other places where I am unfamiliar with life, Shanghai is more suitable for me."

"If something happens, don't we still have you, Uncle Jiang, and President Yan?"

Jiang Wang smiled and shook his head when he heard this. He knew of course that the young man was hiding something about his purpose, but since they were all adults, it would be better not to dig into the matter.

Since Master Bai had no objection, he, as an ordinary elder, naturally would not say much.

"You think too highly of me, I'm counting on you to protect me, Xiao Luo."

"sure."

The two of them chatted and laughed as they took the elevator straight to the top of the building.

It must be said that Shanghai is a big city after all, and the president's office is much more impressive than that of Donglai.

However, this was not the first time Russell came here, so he was not too upset.

There were quite a few people in the president's office at this time.

Yan Wenlai looked at Russell, who had an extremely young face, at the door with a complicated expression, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

The president of the Shanghai Card Artists Association still remembers that when he first met Russell, he was still a very green senior high school student.

After that, Russell showed his terrifying talent and even successfully became his old friend Bai Yueming's apprentice.

At that time, Yan Wenlai also thought that the young man might eventually return to Shanghai, but he did not expect that this day would come so soon.

At this time, it had only been a short time since the other party went to Nandu to study.

One year? Two years?

Yan Wenlai couldn't help feeling a little dazed for a moment.

Fortunately, as the president, he was still quite shrewd and calmed down after a short while.

He showed an indescribable smile on his face, and couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao Luo, you gave me some surprises."

In fact, it was more than a surprise, it was almost a shock.

He paused, then continued: "Let's not talk about this for now. Let me introduce you to the people in the association."

"Xiao Jiang, since you are familiar with me, I won't say much."

"This is Vice President Che Yu."

As he spoke, Yan Wenlai pointed to an old woman standing next to him.

That’s right, the Shanghai Card Masters Association has a vice president, and Russell was an extra one.

The old woman nodded to Russell as a greeting.

"That's just the way President Che is. Don't take it to heart, Xiao Luo."

At this time, Jiang Wang explained softly in his ear.

Hearing this, Russell nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.

Yan Wenlai had been working with Che Yu for so many years that he was naturally accustomed to the old woman's attitude. Moreover, let alone Russell, even he could only hear the other party speak a few times.

Shaking his head, he continued to introduce: "This is the director of the Public Security Office, Wen Wan."

"This is the director of the Human Resources Management Department, Pu Tongren."

There is no difference in the association positions in all regions. Perhaps there will be some changes due to the impact of the fall of the imperial court, but at least for now they are the same as before.

The man and woman whose names were called by Yan Wenlai smiled friendly at Russell.

Pu Tongren is a bald, middle-aged office worker who looks ordinary, but he is undoubtedly much more normal than the sickly Yu Hengrui from Donglai.

At least he definitely wouldn't be a lazy person like Yu Hengrui. Russell could see the resentment of a worker from his face at a glance.

As for Wen Wan
She is a bald woman with a horrible scar on her face.

Russell suppressed the urge to complain and greeted the two of them.

Of course, as a big city, Shanghai must have more than this number of people, there are also many branch presidents.

For example, Ma Liang, the president of the Ning'an District Card Master Association, who has been corrupted by the Qi Ling Society.

Pu Tongren and Wen Wan were not dissatisfied with Russell's airdrop. After all, the young man was a genuine diamond-level card maker, one level stronger than them.

Even if there are no diamond-level cards at the moment, they cannot take advantage of them.

Even the two of them could understand Master Bai's choice. Before their disciple grew up, they temporarily placed him in a familiar place in Shanghai and let his old friend take care of him. This was definitely better than just throwing him somewhere else to let him grow wildly.

At least that's what they both thought.

Seeing that the purpose of today had been achieved, Yan Wenlai ended the topic: "That's it, Xiao Luo, you stay for a while."

Hearing this, Jiang Wang patted Russell on the shoulder, and then left the president's office with Che Yu and the other two.

When they were the only two left in the office, Russell asked in confusion, "Uncle Yan, is there anything else?"

Yan Wenlai didn't care about the young man's address. He just sat back in his office chair and immediately signaled Russell not to be so reserved.

And who is Russell?

He had seen evil master card makers like [Ghost Scale], [Skinner], and [Inverted Cross], so it was impossible for him to feel nervous.

He sat down on the sofa in the reception room, waiting quietly for Yan Wen to speak.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man with a goatee sighed and said, "Xiao Luo, Lao Bai has already told me about the Qiling Society."

"Don't worry, I will cooperate with you."

Russell was stunned. The teacher didn't tell him about this matter. "I know, Uncle Yan."

"But what will I be responsible for next?"

The reason why the young man asked this was because he couldn't just eat and wait to die in Shanghai, even though he was indeed the extra person at the moment.

What's more, there is no way to explain this to Jinping.

Hearing this, Yan Wenlai's face was calm, and it was obvious that he had already made arrangements for this: "You have seen how old President Che is. If anyone asks you, just say that you came here in advance to familiarize yourself with the affairs and take over from President Che." "By the way, President Che also knows about the Qiling Society. You don't have to avoid her."

The "someone" here naturally refers to the Begging Spirit Society.

Russell had no objection to his arrangement, he just nodded silently.

After a moment of silence, the middle-aged man said in a heavy tone, "It's hard for you to face this kind of thing at such a young age."

Before Russell could reply, he changed the subject: "Your office is downstairs. I have had it decorated and isolated with cards."

"If you need to contact the Qiling Society, you can contact them directly there. I don't think anyone in Shanghai can break through the defense."

Russell didn't expect that Yan Wenlai would even consider such a thing.

That way he wouldn't have to look for another place.

"I see. Thank you, Uncle Yan."

Seeing that the middle-aged man remained silent, Russell gently closed the office door and immediately went downstairs.

Since there was only one vice president at the Shanghai Card Artists Association headquarters before, it was obviously impossible for there to be two vice president offices.

The office in front of Russell was renovated recently.

However, because of the existence of the cards, the Vice President's Office II does not feel out of place at all.

When you push open the door, you will see a huge floor-to-ceiling window that is exactly the same as the one in the president's office. You can take in all the buildings in the surrounding area at a glance.

It’s much better than Donglai’s office.

Sitting in the office chair, Russell began to think about the next task.

His top priority now is naturally to find the traitor hidden in Shanghai from the Qi Ling Society.

That being said, he didn't have any good solution for the moment.

"I can't be the human radar myself, can I?"

Relying on Jinping's contract, Russell can sense other members of the Begging Spirit Society within a certain distance.

But in the final analysis, this is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution. Not to mention that he will expose the problem. Even if all the members of the Qiling Society in Shanghai are arrested, Jinping can continue to transfer members from other regions.

"tsk"

"We still need to figure out how Jinping plans to descend into the secret realm of the Four Evil Gods first."

Thinking of this, the young man immediately summoned the [sub-machine].

[Six: President, I have been appointed as the vice president of the Shanghai Card Master Association. What should I do next? ]

[Jin Ping: Okay, in a few days, a demon in the secret realm will get out of control, and you must be there when that happens, Xiao Liu.]

[Jin Ping: When you arrive at the scene, you must make sure that out-of-control demon dies slowly.]

After sending the two messages, Jinping remained silent.

Russell frowned as he looked at the [sub-machine] in his hand. For a moment he couldn't figure out what the old man's purpose was.

"We can only take one step at a time."

Thinking of this, he simply replied with one word.

【Six: Good.】

The next few days were peaceful and calm, which made Russell feel that what Jinping said was an illusion.

Looking through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, he looked at the gloomy weather outside and couldn't help but stretching.

Just as the young man was about to finish work, his communication device began to vibrate continuously.

Russell picked up the phone and his expression instantly became serious.

It was a message from Jiang Wang, and it was sent to a group of people.

He instantly fell into the shadows under his feet and soon came to the president's office.

At this time, Jiang Wang and Che Yu were already waiting here.

Seeing that all the people were present, Yan Wenlai said calmly, "Through Xiao Jiang's information, President Che and President Luo should have known that a diamond-level demon that shouldn't have appeared appeared in a gold-level secret realm under our control."

At this point, he glanced at the three of them and said, "Chairman Che, you and Xiao Jiang..."

Before he could finish his words, Russell interrupted, "President, let me go."

Yan Wen glanced at the serious young man and obviously realized that this should be related to the Qiling Society.

Che Yu's eyes couldn't help but flash, of course she could figure out the key.

After a moment of silence, Yan Wenlai changed the subject: "Then the three of you will go together this time."

"solve quickly."

Hearing this, the three of them nodded.

Since Jiang Wang didn't know the inside story, he couldn't help but wonder why Russell volunteered.

But since President Yan Wenlai said so, he had no objection.

After all, having one more fighter is safer.

After assigning the tasks, the three of them hurried to the scene of the incident.

Not long after, a base under martial law appeared in Russell's sight.

After briefly learning the details from the base commander, Russell and the other two entered the secret realm.

"Logically speaking, it shouldn't be possible for a diamond-level demon to appear in a gold-level secret realm."

At this time, Jiang Wang murmured to himself with some confusion.

You should know that the reason why a secret realm is rated as a gold-level secret realm is that the strongest creature in it is of gold level when it descends.

It is obviously unreasonable that a demon has now broken the boundary and entered the diamond level. This is already a leap of two levels!

It’s not that a real dragon cannot be raised in shallow water, but it is very difficult, not to mention that this secret realm is now controlled by the association.

Russell had some ideas about this. He remembered that when he first entered the secret realm, Jinping used special means to turn the card maker into a demon.

It's not a monster like the Monster Army that can use both monster abilities and card abilities, but a monster that has completely lost its mind.

Jiang Wang let out a long sigh, and then said to Russell and the others, "Although I don't know why this demon has been staying in the secret realm and not leaving, it is better to destroy it as soon as possible."

"Then I'll leave it to you two."

Upon hearing this, Che Yu immediately called out his own cards.

But at this moment, Russell said, "Leave it to me. Chairman Che will take over the battle for me first."

The old woman stopped what she was doing and stood there in silence.

Jiang Wang couldn't help but frown slightly.

Because he had never seen Russell in action, he had no idea what the fighting ability of his junior was at the moment.

In his original imagination, Chairman Che should be the main attacker, with Russell assisting from the side.

But since Chairman Che had no objection, he wouldn't say much.

Moreover, based on his understanding of Russell, the young man was not the kind of person who liked to show off.

While he was thinking, the Death Card belonging to Russell had already appeared on the field.

Looking at the captains and the virtual beings who were wearing extremely similar clothes, Che Yu and Jiang Wang's pupils suddenly shrank.

"This is."
