Chapter 78: The First Group Member Task

"In the relevant legends of ghosts and gods, as long as one is not noticed, one can escape. Once noticed and one responds to them, one will die directly. Am I going to die?"

"The Master does not speak of strange phenomena, physical exploits, disorder, or spiritual beings; respect ghosts and gods but keep them at a distance!"

Ning Caichen wailed in his heart, but the relevant notification sound still rang clearly in his mind.

Not Wanting to Be a Monk (Meng Qi): 【@Ning Caichen, it's your turn, time for your self-introduction!】

Before the crisis arrived, Ning Caichen felt incomparable terror and fear, but when it truly came to a head, a surge of courage rose in his heart instead.

"To hell with whatever demons and monsters there are. It's one blade stroke if I stick my head out, and one blade stroke if I pull it back. I am a reader of the sages' books; I don't believe this world truly has demons and monsters that can eat me."

Ning Caichen: 【I am, I am Ning Caichen, a scholar under the rule of the Song Dynasty. I am currently, currently on my way to Guobei County to collect debts. Unfortunately, I encountered heavy rain on the road and am currently hiding under a tree to take shelter.】

"As expected, it is that warrior who rides ghosts."

Meng Qi's heart skipped a beat, and he completely confirmed Ning Caichen's identity.

However, he did not say much for the moment, instead looking toward the last person.

Not Wanting to Be a Monk (Meng Qi): 【@Alice, please introduce yourself!】

Having just woken up from the jade bathtub and feeling a sense of chaos in her mind, Alice had only simply wrapped a bath towel around her body. When Zhang Xuan stared at Alice, the scene on Alice's body was also quite alluring.

Zhang Xuan took the initiative to shift his gaze away, whispering at the same time: "She looks eighty or ninety percent like the protagonist in the Resident Evil series of movies I've watched. It can be confirmed that this is indeed the world of Resident Evil, and it is still the period when the virus has just leaked."

Alice: 【Why are you all making sounds in my mind? Is this the latest technology? I don't know what my name is. I feel like my memory is lost. I only found an identification tag with my portrait on it. I seem to be a senior manager of the Umbrella Corporation, Alice...】

Meng Qi raised his eyebrows. An amnesiac character who only knows the relevant name—he had a slight impression in his mind, but it was not very clear.

But he had no intention of digging deep; anyway, he did not know the relevant world, and the Chat Group Owner would naturally know.

Zhang Xuan might also know; he was not an omniscient and omnipotent figure either.

Not Wanting to Be a Monk (Meng Qi): 【Alright, everyone has introduced themselves. I suppose we have already had a simple acquaintance, so I will also introduce myself to everyone.】

【Meng Qi, disciple of the Shaolin Temple, understands a little bit of superficial martial arts.】

Hearing Meng Qi's self-introduction like this, the corners of Zhang Xuan's mouth twitched wildly.

The current Meng Qi seems to have already practiced the Mysterious Technique and also obtained a portion of the Primordial Beginning Golden Chapter.

Of course, he has not fully practiced it; after all, he is currently under the gaze of the Lunhui Zhi Zhu and cannot be that reckless. But his true body has indeed practiced many top-tier techniques in Laojun's Tushita Palace.

Judging by this, that "little bit of superficial martial arts" is truly a universe at his fingertips.

Looking at the entire Chat Group, the techniques Meng Qi practices are all the most top-tier.

And after Meng Qi finished speaking, Zhang Xuan also took the initiative to speak.

Zhang Xuan: 【Zhang Xuan, an ordinary office worker within the territory of China on Earth. Currently a freelancer, also understands a little bit of martial arts.】

Hmm, Nine Yang Divine Art perfected, Mysterious Technique reached the Outer Scene, Indestructible Heavenly Art practiced to the Life Spring Realm—it is indeed "a little bit" of martial arts.

Zhang Xuan had thought that only he and Meng Qi would honestly introduce themselves; he did not expect that Zhang Sanfeng, who he thought wouldn't be very active, would stand out at this time.

Zhang Sanfeng: 【Old Daoist Zhang Sanfeng, founder of the Wudang Sect. I am a little bit proficient in the way of martial arts, and it is very likely that I have quite a bit of understanding of Qiao Feng, Leader Qiao @Qiao Feng.】

Qiao Feng: 【Sect Leader Zhang also has an understanding of my situation?】

Qiao Feng was in a state of confusion and incomprehension. As Zhang Sanfeng heard Qiao Feng's name and heard his own description of his position as the Beggar Sect leader, thoughts of contemplation and nostalgia could not help but flow in his gaze. He had certain guesses.

In the era he lived in, martial arts heritage had not been completely severed, and news of various aspects had been heard. He had also heard of the famous Beggar Sect leader Qiao Feng from the Northern Song Dynasty.

Zhang Sanfeng: 【I wonder if what Leader Qiao is proficient in is the Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms? Did you practice martial arts at Shaolin in your early years? If so, I think I have a certain understanding of Leader Qiao.】

Qiao Feng: 【Everything Sect Leader Zhang said is correct. I was a Shaolin disciple in my early years, and my master was Master Xuan Bei. Later, I left the mountain to walk the jianghu, and by chance, I became the Beggar Sect leader and was able to be taught the Beggar Sect's town-sect method, the Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms. I wonder where Sect Leader Zhang learned of my experiences.】

Hearing this, Zhang Sanfeng could not help but let out a low sigh, and at the same time, he had a deeper understanding of the unfathomable abilities of the Chat Group.

The Northern Song Dynasty was hundreds of years away from the era he lived in, and the things that had happened in the past, the past world, could actually be pulled into reality by the Chat Group, allowing him to have a conversation with an ancient person from hundreds of years ago.

Zhang Sanfeng: 【If there is no mistake in this regard, in the era you are in, hundreds of years later is my era. The era I am in has recorded the martial arts stories of your period, and I also have an impression of the things that happened to Leader Qiao.】

Holding a cup of strong liquor and preparing to drink it to taste his favorite flavor, Qiao Feng froze. The shock and awe he received today were more than all his previous days combined.

First, someone revealed all his future destiny and told him of his bizarre and twisted life experience, which was why he understood why his master at Shaolin Temple had such complex feelings toward him.

He both cultivated him and was unwilling to be too close to him.

Clearly, his martial arts talent was considered top-tier in Shaolin Temple, yet he only learned simple internal arts and moves in Shaolin.

When many elders faced him, there was an even more unspeakable meaning. Although he was a forthright person, he also had a delicate side. In his early years, he had noticed something wrong, but he did not know the reason. Now that he understood, the meaning in his heart was unspeakable.

Just after knowing this shocking truth, he suddenly discovered that there was someone from hundreds of years later greeting him.

Qiao Feng was a bit speechless.

He wanted to believe that all of this was true, but he really couldn't bring himself to believe it. Such a big, such a shocking truth, just told to me so simply?

He had originally believed half of it, but now he felt the authenticity was decreasing.

Reality was too exaggerated.

And at this moment, an invisible wave appeared in everyone's mind. The Chat Group Owner, who had been hidden, suddenly appeared.

A calm voice rang in everyone's ears.

——

: 【Since you have all introduced yourselves, then let your respective destinies be tasted by yourselves!】

Ding, received the complete collection of Resident Evil one through six!

This is for Alice.

Ding, received A Chinese Ghost Story!

This is for Ning Caichen.

Ding, received Wind and Cloud!

This is for Xiong Ba.

Ding... Hmm, Qiao Feng has already received Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, no need to receive it again, so his message notification did not pop up.

And the remaining three in the group looked at the notification sounds in their minds, looked at that ancient scroll, clicked into it at the same time, and then fell into endless shock.

"Virus leak, and the Umbrella Corporation launched a nuclear missile directly to hide the relevant information?"

"Is everyone dead, Red Queen?"

Alice, having just woken up in the bathtub, fell into deep thought, her entire spirit suffering a violent shock.

She simply could not believe it, but after he finished putting on his clothes simply, he saw a team of mercenaries hired by the Umbrella Corporation to go into the underground facility to handle related incidents, and she was suddenly unable to speak.

"We need your help, ma'am!"

When the captain leading them took the initiative to invite him, Alice fell into silence.

Ning Caichen, who was hiding under a large tree, looked at the subsequent fate regarding him, looked at that strange and terrifying Guobei County, and looked at the subsequent Lanruo Temple that was terrifying to the extreme, and he himself also fell into confusion.

"The ghost in my mind tells me that if I continue to walk forward, I will encounter ghosts. Should I listen to the ghost or listen to myself?"

Ning Caichen fell into deep hesitation and self-entanglement.

As for Xiong Ba, sitting on the throne as the leader of the World Association, he muttered to himself, looking at the prophecies belonging to him, his spirit falling into a state of madness.

"The dragon's roar in the nine heavens shocks the heavens, Wind and Cloud gather to swim in the shallow water?"

"I don't believe it, it's absolutely impossible, such a thing will absolutely not happen!"

"I am destined to dominate the world, how could I be defeated by my disciples?"

"I have the Three Points Return to Origin Qi, I have the strongest strength, I have the methods to restrain them, I cannot fail, it's fake, it's all fake!"

Xiong Ba was in disbelief, and the Chat Group fell into a strange stillness and silence once again.

At a time like this, Zhang Xuan took the initiative to warm up the atmosphere.

Zhang Xuan: 【In fact, knowing your fate in advance is not a bad thing for all of you. At the very beginning, when we knew our respective fates, we were also very shocked, but later we all twisted those fates.】

【Fate is not immutable; it can be constantly changed and can be constructed in the direction you desire. Moreover, we have many Chat Group members who help each other out in daily life. If you really encounter hurdles and difficulties you cannot overcome, we can all help each other.】

【Especially since a related mission system has recently been released, you can set missions for other group members to help.】

Xiong Ba: 【It can be like this?】

Xiong Ba fell into suspicion at the first moment; he always felt that others had ill intentions.

Ning Caichen: 【Can it be done? Can it really be done? I think I need help right now.】

Ning Caichen didn't care about any messy things; he was so poor that he had nothing left. If he couldn't collect the debts in Guobei County, he might even starve to death.

And just now he took a look; after this heavy rain, the account book he was carrying was indeed blurred and could not be read clearly.

According to the personalities of that group of people in Guobei County, if he took such an account book to collect debts, he would definitely not be able to collect them.

He needed help, no matter what price he had to pay, even if it meant seeking help from demons, he had to get past this current hurdle.

Ding, Ning Caichen has issued a mission: help him collect debts in Guobei County!
