At night.

Lin Xuan changed into Shield Ghost’s equipment and arrived at the ruined house that day.

Just like before, the black-clothed martial artist had long been waiting here while drinking.

“I’m here.” A hoarse voice sounded from under the black armor.

The black-clothed martial artist chuckled. “I said that we would meet again.”

“I still don’t know your name.”

“Black.”

“Alright.”

The black-clothed martial artist smiled and said, “Lin Xuan should have told you the specific situation already. Number Two is currently short of people. We can let you enter the Poison Mosquito Swamp with a special identity. We won’t take any of the items you obtain. How about that?”

Fighters and overseers were different from wasteland reclaimers. They did not have to wear collars and would not be monitored by the Germinal Organization. However, they still had to complete a fixed number of missions every time they entered the mystic realm.

Moreover, if the wasteland reclaimers obtained rare blue and precious purple items, they would definitely be forcefully bought by the Germinal Organization.

However, the fighters and overseers did not need to do so. They only needed to complete the fixed number of missions. They could keep those as long as they completed their missions.

“Condition?” Lin Xuan said calmly.

There was no such thing as a free lunch in the world.

The other party had not requested for him to hand anything in. Based on this, he could already guess that the other party had hidden conditions.

Black smiled and said, “Manager Number Two and Manager Number Three have always been in a competitive state. Since Manager Number Two joined the Germinal Organization halfway, his faction is much weaker than Manager Number Three.”

“If the faction is weak, the number of subordinates will decrease. If the number of subordinates is small, the benefits will decrease. If the benefits are small, it will naturally be difficult for more people to join. More and more fighters are leaning towards joining Number Three’s faction.”

“There are four overseers, and three of them are on Number Three’s side.”

At this point, Black stopped talking and looked at him quietly.

Lin Xuan immediately understood the meaning of his words.

The battle in the Poison Mosquito Swamp was actually a battle between Number Two and Number Three.

Number Two wanted to use this battle to showcase the strength of his side.

Number Three wanted to use this battle to continue consolidating his advantage.

Although this was only a battle with little influence, no matter which side won, it would make the other party seem useless.

When the fighters choose their superiors, they would naturally take this into consideration.

“I have a condition,” Lin Xuan said.

“Please tell me.”

“If I kill the most Poison Mosquitoes this time, I want the qualification to enter the Third Realm, Fourth Realm, and Fifth Realm for an extended period of time.”

Black looked at Lin Xuan with interest. “I agree.”

Lin Xuan was puzzled. “You can represent Manager Number Two?”

Black Lang smiled and said, “I’m his bodyguard. If he doesn’t listen to me, I won’t protect him.”

Lin Xuan :”…”

Did this employer and bodyguard have a reversed relationship?

Lin Xuan asked, “Time?”

Black. “Eight o’clock tomorrow morning at the base hall.”

Lin Xuan nodded and turned to leave.

Black looked at his back and clicked his tongue in wonder.

“This guy is filled with ambition. He has only just become a Third Realm martial artist, but he’s already thinking about the Fifth Realm and Fourth Realm mystic realm.”

…

The next morning, at 8 AM, Lin Xuan arrived at the hall in time.

The wasteland reclaimers passed him in surprise.

Didn’t they hear that Shield Ghost and the Germinal Organization had fallen out? Why would he still dare to stand casually in the Germinal Organization hall?

Soon, a group of Third Realm fighters also arrived and chatted in small groups.

Their high-spirited appearance made the wasteland reclaimers yearn to become them.

If only we could also advance to the Third Realm and become a fighter.

Unfortunately, most wasteland reclaimers couldn’t even advance to the Second Realm, let alone the Third Realm.

These fighters were very surprised to see Shield Ghost.

Why was a lone wolf standing here?

A white-clothed fighter suddenly said, “I have some impression of this person. His nickname is Shield Ghost. Previously, he completely defeated Yang Wei in the Tree King Sea.”

“Yang Wei? Didn’t he advance to the Fourth Realm? How was he defeated by a lone wolf?” The other fighters said in surprise.

“We also know what level Yang Wei is at. Although he had barely gathered five advancement materials, none of them were dropped by the experienced mystic realm king. Although he is only at level one First Realm, his attributes are still much inferior to mine, a level seven Third Realm expert.” The white-clothed fighter chuckled and said, “However, since Shield Ghost can defeat Yang Wei, he still has some strength. In a while, when we enter the Poison Mosquito Swamp, we have to pay attention to him.”

“I see. Mo Yuan, do you mean that Shield Ghost will enter the Poison Mosquito Swamp with us?” The other fighters were deep in thought.

“Why else would he be standing here at this time? As expected, Manager Number Two has invited him,” said Mo Yuan with a smile.

Indeed, soon, Manager Number Two and Manager Number Three arrived together.

This was the first time Lin Xuan had seen Manager Number Two.

He was unexpectedly young.

Based on his appearance, he seemed like he was younger than thirty years old.

His face was terrifyingly pale, as if he had never seen sunlight before.

Manager Number Three was very handsome, thin, and appeared to be very cold. He could easily capture a young girl’s heart with a charming smile.

Number Two smiled at Number Three, and Number Three also nodded lightly. The two of them did not seem to have any conflict on the surface.

“Do you want to speak first or should I?” Manager Number Two was the first to speak.

Manager Number Three said, “Go on. I don’t like to talk too much.”

Number Two nodded and turned to the many fighters. “You should also know the specific information. The water in the Poison Mosquito Swamp has worsened, and the poison mosquitoes have multiplied in large numbers. As a result, this has suppressed the growth space of the Unstained Lotus and other attribute items. What you need to do is to eliminate the poison mosquitoes and destroy the nest.”

“In order to show the competitive nature of the organization, I’ll give everyone a bracelet this time. The bracelet will record how many poison mosquitoes you’ve killed and how many nests you’ve destroyed. Don’t worry, the bracelet is different from the collar. It won’t monitor the storage compartment.”

The last sentence was only brought up so that Shield Ghost could rest assured.

Manager Number Two said, “Since there are a lot of Poison Mosquitoes this time and considering that there are fewer Third Realm martial artists in the organization, I have specially invited Shield Ghost to join this operation. Everyone, please welcome him.”

Clap, clap, clap.

The fighters applauded.

“Let’s go. I don’t want to waste any time,” Manager Number Three interrupted.

Mo Yuan was the first to enter the door of light. The many fighters followed closely behind. Lin Xuan was the last to enter the mystic realm.

As soon as he entered the Poison Mosquito Swamp, Lin Xuan could smell an extremely unpleasant stench.

“Damn, I haven’t been here for a day, but the swamp water has gotten so bad.”

“No wonder the higher-ups hurriedly organized people to clean up the poison mosquitoes. At this rate, those attribute items like the Unstained Lotus won’t be able to last for long.”

“Time to work!”

The many fighters immediately scattered.

Although there was no reward on the surface, everyone knew that the person who eventually eliminated the most number of Poison Mosquitoes would definitely be recognized by the manager.

In this way, they naturally had to split up and not let others snatch the credit.

Lin Xuan glanced at them and discovered that most of the fighters were cautiously advancing along the edge of the Poison Mosquito Swamp, not daring to directly enter.

He had already looked around with his Observer skill and discovered that most of these fighters were below level three and level four of the Third Realm. Only the few in the lead were at level six or level seven Third Realm. There wasn’t anyone who had a cultivation level higher than level seven Third Realm.

The higher-level ones carefully entered the Poison Mosquito Swamp, but they did not go too deep.

Lin Xuan shrugged and strode into the depths of the Poison Mosquito Swamp.

The poison mosquitoes outside were not enough. He planned to find poison mosquitoes with higher attributes in the depths so that he could have a stronger avatar.
