Since Wei Chang'an said he would handle things here, Chen Chuan didn't linger and rode away. However, he didn't know that shortly after he left, a beautiful, almost illusory doll was climbing on the wall of the old well, and as the moonlight reappeared from behind the clouds, it vanished again. On his way back, Chen Chuan deliberately chose smaller roads. Even so, he could still occasionally hear modified cars speeding down the main streets, accompanied by the sounds of chains dragging and bottles smashing. The evening was when gang members were most active, and he didn't want to run into them unnecessarily. Also, after learning that some urban legends were indeed real, he was extra cautious, avoiding secluded alleys as much as possible. After riding for more than an hour, he arrived at City Center Square and dialed a phone number noted in the Data. After the call connected, there was no sound on the other end. He followed the instructions in the Data and said, "The item has been captured." A deep, emotionless voice came from the other end: "Location." Chen Chuan said, "City Center Square, across from the Douyi Grand Hotel." "Wait, the car is on its way." Chen Chuan hung up and waited by the roadside. Soon, he saw a car turning from the other end of the avenue, its headlights shining brightly. It was a van, and as it got closer, he could see a blooming Melan flower on the vehicle's logo. This is... Molan Company? Chen Chuan pondered. The car stopped in front of Chen Chuan. The door opened, and two people in Molan Company uniforms stepped out. Chen Chuan stood up, picked up the bag, and walked over. One of them took it, opened the drawstring, checked the contents, nodded, and said, "The goods are correct." The other person took the form Chen Chuan handed over, signed it, stamped it with a seal, and returned it to him. Chen Chuan took it back and saw the two people carrying the bag to the back of the van. When they opened the door, a gust of cold air wafted out. After putting the item away, the two returned to the front, got in the car, and quickly drove away, without looking at Chen Chuan again. Chen Chuan put away the form and noticed his "Second Self" behind him. He found that the faint fading signs was still ongoing, and hadn't disappeared after sending the Well Child away. However, the damage was very minor, so he didn't pay much attention and went straight back to Wuyi School. At this time of night, there were security guards patrolling outside Wuyi. He showed his A-grade student card upon approaching and was immediately allowed to pass. Back in his dorm, he first used the public phone to call Cheng Zitong, saying, "Teacher, I'm back. Everything went smoothly. I've handed over the item to the Commission party according to the phone number in the Data." Cheng Zitong said, "How do you feel?" Chen Chuan said, "How should I put it? It's a bit novel to encounter something like this for the first time. Teacher, what exactly is that?" Cheng Zitong said, "Although there are some speculations, teacher can't say for sure either. If you want to find the answer, you can only look for it yourself. Few people do Urban Legend Assigned Missions because they are very dangerous. It's best not to touch some things before knowing how to solve them. The one I gave you today was summarized by predecessors and proven to be successfully solved, so it's relatively easy. In reality, the time and cost spent to understand these things are very high, and many people avoid them because they would rather do other commissions with that effort." Chen Chuan could understand this. These types of commissions have high risk and unknown factors, and the rewards aren't necessarily more than other commissions, so why would anyone do them? Cheng Zitong continued, "But if you can specialize in this type of Assigned Mission, then more and more of these commissions will be given to you. The more you come into contact with, the more you will understand. If others can't do it but you can, then you are the expert, and they will think of you first when there are problems. Ordinary commissions can be replaced by anyone, but this type can't be replaced, so they can only look for you. Your Evaluation will be unique." Chen Chuan said, "Teacher, it's not that high Evaluation matters to students, it's just that students are really interested in these things." Cheng Zitong laughed and said, "That's right, no matter what it is, we'll do it as long as we're interested, because we're willing. Nothing can bind us, and that's how the Experiential School should be." Chen Chuan said, "Teacher, you said not to be bound by the circle. Isn't recognizing ourselves as the Experiential School also binding ourselves?" Cheng Zitong was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Good kid, are you questioning teacher and picking a fight with teacher?" "Being straightforward should also be a characteristic of the Experiential School, right?" "Haha, you kid, you've said all the good and bad things." Cheng Zitong was very happy at this moment because no one had ever been as compatible with him as this student. It was just a pity... Sёarch* The novel(F~)ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. He sighed inwardly, then perked up and said, "Based on past experience, these types of Assigned Missions shouldn't be done consecutively, otherwise, there will be an unspeakable influence. You should rest for a few days first. During this time, you can also check the growth of your Mutated Tissue to see if you need to arrange the next Limit training." Chen Chuan said, "Okay, Teacher. By the way, I encountered something today that may have some influence later on." Next, he talked about accidentally meeting Tong Qianjiang and the possibility of participating in that commission later on. After listening, Cheng Zitong said, "I've heard about this matter." He thought for a moment, "Teacher thinks that since you're already involved, you should actively participate and not give up this opportunity. This matter should be linked to the Government Affairs Hall, which can greatly improve your commission Evaluation, and this matter may have additional benefits for you. It's hard to comment now, but remember..." His voice became more serious, "Be careful. These people have been hiding for so long, so they are not that simple." Chen Chuan said, "Teacher, I will be careful." After the phone call, because it was late, he took a shower and went to sleep. The next morning, after his early morning exercise, he saw Feng Xiaoqi and Luo Kaiyuan also there, so they agreed to go to the cafeteria for breakfast together. Feng Xiaoqi and Luo Kaiyuan had also started training in the past few days and were currently consolidating their skills. Normally, it would take about three or four months to half a year to familiarize themselves before proceeding to the next step. In reality, they were waiting for the growth of Mutated Tissue, and specific arrangements could only be made based on the degree of growth. However, students generally didn't know about this. Therefore, some students usually only mastered Internal energy in their second year. But this refers to major force. Minor force is relatively much easier. Even people without Mutated Tissue can still develop it through their own efforts and taking some drugs that stimulate Potential. Many B-grade students master Internal energy through this method. While the three were having breakfast, Feng Xiaoqi gave each of them a pair of boxing wraps, saying, "These are boxing wraps specially made for me by my family. I also had two sets made for you." Chen Chuan didn't stand on ceremony, thanked him and took it. Friends should exchange gifts, and he could return something when he had the chance. After accepting it, Luo Kaiyuan solemnly said, "Thank you." Feng Xiaoqi smiled and said, "What are you thanking me for? It's just a small thing. Although the training equipment in the Academy is very complete, it's convenient to have some small things yourself, such as these boxing wraps, convenient elastic bands, grip strengtheners, and resistance bands. My family makes these things, I'll take you to see it someday." Chen Chuan smiled and said, "Okay." After breakfast, the three returned to their dorm. As soon as they entered, they saw the dorm teacher talking on the phone. Seeing Chen Chuan, she quickly called out, "Chen classmate, it's for you." Then she said to the other end of the phone, "He's here, wait a moment." Chen Chuan immediately walked over, thanked her, took the phone, and asked, "Hello?" Wei Chang'an's excited and slightly hoarse voice came from the other end, saying, "Junior, we've found Scarface's hiding place! Are you free now? I'll come pick you up." Chen Chuan said, "I'm here at the dorm building." "Don't go anywhere, I'll be there soon!" …… ……
