Hidden Corner

 Chapter 236 236 Leaving Four

 “You beat the mob.”

 Liu Tongbei looked at Chen Tingyun who had completely lost his fighting spirit. "On behalf of Jiuyi and the Federation, I will urge Zhongyi University to provide corresponding compensation. Don't worry, Chen Tingyun comes from a prominent family. Even if the school does not recognize him, his own family is also a noble, so he can still compensate."

"A noble?" Li Chengyi was stunned. The nobles of Yi State were a level that ordinary people could rarely come into contact with.

 Because the nobles of Yi State mainly live in Zihuan City and rarely go out to ordinary cities.

“Then I’ll trouble you, Commissioner Liu.” He politely thanked Liu Tongbei.

"You're welcome. I should do it." Liu Tongbei smiled.

Li Chengyi took one last look at Li Shenhui and Chen Tingyun, both of whom seemed to have lost their spirits.

 Obviously, the three views have been completely destroyed.

He shook his head in his heart. With such willpower, he was far inferior to the Joan he had just accepted. They were just two losers with no strong talents, resources and equipment.

 Turning around, a stream of purple particles was ejected from behind him, propelling him to fly rapidly into the distance.

"Have you modified the flight mode?" Liu Tongbei clicked his tongue in admiration.

 It seems that with the support from Skittles’ father, the mob’s technical reserves are getting stronger and stronger.

 Three o'clock in the afternoon.

The Destiny Garden team gathered in the basement of the villa again.

Joan An was sent back to Suiyang for surgery. She also needs to go through a careful test to see if she is qualified to join.

This woman is ruthless, extremely strong-willed, and somewhat crazy. Li Chengyi plans to investigate her for a long time.

 So those who are still there at this time are Rainbow Candy, Syndra, Little Brown, the big bear that just came over, and the gantry crane that sneaked out.

 Everyone is here.

Li Chengyi specially dragged a rectangular wooden table to the basement and set up chairs to facilitate everyone to discuss matters.

"I have just completed the transaction procedures for this house. This can be used as our temporary location in Long'an in the future." Rainbow Candy was the first to speak while licking the lollipop.

“Does the company still have enough funds?” Li Chengyi asked.

“Well, it’s not necessary for the company. My own private money is enough.” Skittles said nonchalantly.

 “Sister Tang, you are awesome!” Ganmen crane quickly applauded.

 Suddenly everyone focused their attention on him.

 Everyone’s eyes looked a little strange.

 A long, straight black girl with a rainbow candy face, the same voice, and a similar figure. She is just taller and has the air of a royal sister.

 Wearing a gorgeous silver armor, it looks more like it came out of an exoskeleton laboratory.

Overall, this armor is really not much different from many heavy-duty exoskeletons.

  That is, there are three crystal red lines on the chest, like three squinting eyes.

The silver metal mask can be freely opened and closed on the face.

There is also the unnecessary long hair covering the armor behind him.

 Everywhere else, it looks like a high-end exoskeleton.

“Longmen, how are you feeling now?” Big Bear asked curiously, “Is there anything else down there?”

"Of course!" Longmen Zao's face flashed with a hint of unnaturalness, and he immediately puffed up his chest. "Even though I have become like this, my gender has not changed."

 It’s not like there are no small things!

 “Then what do you do when you take a shower?” Big Bear asked a sharp question.

"Of course you can take off your clothes and do whatever you want." Before Long Mendiao finished speaking, he felt a biting chill coming from his side.

　　"Just wash it with your eyes closed! Hehe" he laughed dryly, turning his head to smile fawningly at Skittles.

“Can you still change back now?” Li Chengyi asked.

“Well, I don’t know what’s going on at the moment. There’s nothing I can do about it. But I can feel that I can choose to switch after a while.” Ganmen Crane replied.

“Then if you run out secretly, won’t your family be worried?” Big Bear asked.

"What are you worried about? They didn't even recognize me when I showed off. Hey, I even secretly took a piece of clothing from my sister-in-law and wore it. Didn't you see my brother's expression? His eyes were straight, hahahaha! "

The gantry crane obviously hasn’t realized that it has gradually entered the ranks of some kind of incombustible materials.

 Several people around him looked a little twitchy and quietly stayed away from him.

"Tell me, if I seduce my brother, cause trouble at home with him and my sister-in-law, and then suddenly reveal my identity, how will he react?" Longmen Diao's thinking has obviously begun to take a special turn, and he doesn't know where he is going. .

 “You **** thing, don’t do anything to my face! Ah!!”

Skittle's face turned red, he jumped up and slapped the gantry crane hard.

Snapped.

Her hand was firmly grasped by the gantry crane.

"Hahaha, Sister Tang, you can't do it anymore! Your reaction now is like a snail in my eyes. You are no longer my opponent!" Ganmen crane laughed.

“Really!?” Skittles’ eyes were gloomy, and suddenly his eyes lit up with rainbow-like fluorescence.

Her whole body was instantly covered with large silvery purple magnolia petals. The petals quickly condensed to cover the body, turning into a set of smaller silver metal armor.

The appearance of the armor and the gantry crane are exactly the same, except that they are slightly smaller.

 At this moment, the proportion of strength between the two people suddenly changed.

　　Bang!

The gantry crane was slapped **** the side of the face. It flew out and hit the basement wall, causing small cracks.

 A shallow dent was made in the wall.

 “Damn you! Say it again if you dare! Huh!?” Rainbow Candy rushed up and continued to press the gantry crane and gave it a beating.

Huge impact sounds continued to explode, causing pain to the eardrums of the others, and the basement echoed.

"Okay, let's go out and find a place to fight slowly in a while. Let's talk about business first." Li Chengyi said in a deep voice.

 He tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

Skittle Tang let go and returned to the table with a swollen face. "As you can see, after getting the awakening method of Longmen, I also found a way to activate this set of flower fantasy clothes. I have to say that the technology of this set of armor has touched on space teleportation, biological fusion parasitism, gene directional amplification, etc. Technology, if this technology is exposed, it may cause a lot of turmoil, so we'd better have a unified voice." Skittles sighed.

"That's right, space jump transmission is generally only used in large areas. This kind of small-scale precise transmission, even for White Star, is probably still in the laboratory stage, and there is still a long way to go before application." Syndra said.

“So I hope everyone will keep this matter a secret.” Li Chengyi nodded.

“Next, we need to carefully consider whether to go to Sutan immediately to find the whereabouts of the Book of Records. Rean’s team member Harnes is carrying the Book of Records. He is a Sutan, and we may be able to find clues there.

 In addition, when Joan came out of the blind spot, she did not return to the position she entered. Does this mean that there are other patterns in the blind spot that we have not been able to detect? Has anyone tried to break away from each other while they were in contact? "Li Chengyi asked.

“New dead-end people have appeared twice in the company. Their positions after leaving will basically appear in the same place. This is indeed not an exception.” As a manager, Daxiong is very aware of these aspects.

“In other words, if a team can connect with each other through some method, then it is possible to get in and out of dead ends at a location?” Syndra asked.

"Yes." Daxiong nodded, "In addition, I scanned and tested the golden eye snake ring that Brother Yi brought out, and found that it was not pure gold. Instead, there was something similar to bone human tissue hidden inside. They It’s wrapped in golden metal, I suspect it’s probably related to the location of the transmission.”

“Could it be that they created the Golden Eyed Snake Ring to allow all Rean’s team members to enter and leave at the same location?” Xiao Brown guessed.

"I'd like to trouble Big Bear and Little Brown to analyze it later. If possible, we can also imitate this function. Going in and out of a dead corner together may sometimes be very convenient." Li Chengyi said solemnly.

"OK."

"give it to me!"

 The two responded in unison.

“Zhongyi University has been pushed back by us. It will be fine for a short time, but this may attract more attention. I hope everyone pays attention to this aspect.” Li Chengyi said.

"What happened to the Noel Group last time will never happen again. I have re-improved the new monitoring network. Now Suiyang is our private territory. Even if Jiuyi comes, we will be able to detect it immediately." Rainbow Candy He sat back in his seat and said solemnly.

Several people carefully discussed the future development and planning of the team. Daxiong proposed to recruit several new members to join, and everyone decided to investigate first.

 The current number of people is actually enough. There’s no rush yet. Except for a very small number of extremely outstanding dead-end people.

This discussion lasted until very late, and everyone dispersed.

"boss."

Before leaving, Li Chengyi suddenly called Sindra.

"What?" Syndra turned around. His legs and feet were now completely healed, and the Hua Huan Yi, which was gradually strengthening, was feeding back his all-round physique.

 “Can we talk?” Li Chengyi asked.

 “…Of course.” Syndra smiled. Looking at Li Chengyi, the light of white stars shone on his young face under the night sky.

 For a moment, he seemed to see Rean from more than ten years ago.

That was their last meeting at White Star.

Whether it's Li Chengyi or Li En back then, they are both so confident and talented, with courage and confidence that ordinary people can't even imagine.

 In fact, if you think about it, if they don't have enough confidence and confidence, they would not dare to truly embark on the path of pursuing the root cause of the blind spot.

 The two returned to the villa, went to a small garden in the backyard, and walked slowly around the garden.

It’s March, and the moisture of early spring is blown by the wind on my clothes, making my whole body feel wet.

"Boss, actually, when I get to this point, I have many, many doubts and many, many questions. I have no one to ask, because I feel that many people around me are not qualified to answer me. Only you." Li Chengyi thought, considering himself How to ask your own questions.

"Don't worry, youth is the capital of trial and error." Syndra smiled, "You are already much better than many others."

"It's different. I'm actually just an ordinary college student. Compared to many people, I don't know much, my level is not high, and I don't see far enough." Li Chengyi whispered, "Even if we set up this team, I I also feel that I am not qualified to lead everyone forward. Tangtang Daxiong and the others have better leadership than me. In fact, they are more qualified to lead everyone forward. "

“What you said is actually correct.” Syndra smiled, “But you ignored one of the most important core points.”

"What?"

 “Why do we come together?”

 “Because. I am a high-frequency flasher.” Li Chengyi replied.

 “Is it just that?” Syndra shook her head.

 “Is there anything else?” Li Chengyi asked, puzzled.

"If this was the only reason, you should have disbanded when your team encountered difficulties for the first time." Syndra said.

“Yes. Why is everyone willing to gather around me?” Li Chengyi was equally puzzled.

"Actually, the reason is very simple. It's not that I can't, but that I don't want to." Syndra took a few steps forward and looked up at the night sky.

“As you said, both Rainbow Candy and Big Bear have the ability and strength to be leaders. But why don’t they do it?”

 “Because.Character?”

"Yes, because they don't want to. You are the reason why they get together, the core." Syndra sighed slightly.

“The most important thing a leader needs is not strength, but responsibility and foresight!”

“In incidents one after another, you have shown your responsibility. When facing difficulties and powerful enemies, you are the first to rush out, support the overall situation, and finally turn defeat into victory! This is your responsibility.”

“While tracking down dead ends, you can constantly correct the direction, ensure that the team is on the right path, and constantly find new progress and clues. This is your foresight!”

 Sindra's words made Li Chengyi thoughtful.

"Actually, I just think that weak people should not be a drag on the team, so I need to ensure that I am not a weak person..." He frowned slightly. "So, how can you become a successful and powerful leader? When I was in the Dark City, I found many traces of Rean. There is no doubt that he is not as strong as me, but in terms of comprehensive aspects, as a leader, he is worse than I am strong! If he has my strength, he will definitely do better than me!"

"Rean is a very charismatic person. He always gives people a sense of warmth and hope." Syndra said with a hint of nostalgia, "No matter what difficulties he encountered, he always had a smile on his face. But he He has his own way, and you have your own way. You are two different individuals."

“Strong and successful leaders should all have something in common, right?” Li Chengyi asked seriously.

 “Of course.” Syndra nodded. "A truly strong leader, someone who can stand firm, must have several common characteristics. These should be your goals moving forward."

“Is it leadership? Cohesion? Eloquence?” Li Chengyi guessed.

 “No, these are not the foundation.” Syndra shook her head.

 He raised his index finger.

“The first step for a successful and powerful leader is to...”

 “Reduce vulnerabilities!”

 “Reduce vulnerabilities?”

“That’s right. The most fundamental way for a person to become a leader is to be able to stand upright!”
