"First!

Join the 9th Division. With your talent, it won't be hard to get in. The current head of the 9th Division is an old friend of mine! He will surely look after you!

Second!

Before midnight, look into a mirror and use your blood energy to activate your Slaughter Rune. Keep it up for half an hour!

Xiao Xin, there are many things I can't explain right now. Don't lose this phone; I'll contact you!"

The video froze at this point.

Fang Xin's heart was restless for a long time.

In the video, it seemed his grandfather was avoiding something.

But the lighting in the video was too dim to see clearly where he was.

Fang Xin watched the video again but still couldn't find any useful location clues.

Thinking about his grandfather's sudden departure back then, there must be more to the story.

Returning to what his grandfather said, according to him, joining the 9th Division was possible.

This also proved that what the White Hair guy said was correct.

As for the second thing...

Looking into a mirror at night?

What was that supposed to do?

Fang Xin glanced at the time; it was past eight, still some time before his grandfather's specified hour.

He examined the phone thoroughly, confirming the only clue left by his grandfather was this video.

Finding no additional valuable information, Fang Xin set the phone aside.

He looked at the Skyshield Smartlink Device on the table.

When he opened it, it was the same device Zhuge Heng had brought to look at data earlier that afternoon.

Once opened, it formed an L-shape.

A virtual screen appeared in the angle between.

The device wasn't heavy at all, in fact, it was quite light.

After powering it on.

The virtual screen displayed two buttons.

"Identity Registration!"

"Account Login!"

Fang Xin thought for a moment and clicked on Identity Registration.

"Please face the center of the screen to complete facial recognition!"

Fang Xin faced the screen.

"Facial recognition complete, please enter an invitation code or inviter."

To read the uncut version, go to [pawread.com].

Fang Xin was stumped when entering the name.

The White Hair only said his name was Zhuge Heng, but didn't specify which character "Heng" was.

Moreover, the dialog box indicated there was only one chance to enter it.

Zhuge Heng hadn't left any contact information when he left, mainly because when Fang Xin was about to ask, the White Hair had already used his spatial talent to disappear with Xiao Lu as soon as he stepped out.

He only left Fang Xin the Spatial Orb that could summon him.

But Zhuge Heng had mentioned that in case of danger, he could also crush it to summon him.

Fang Xin didn't want to miss the chance to get something for free from this White Hair.

He could also take the opportunity to see the true strength of this White Hair when he made a move.

The phone kept vibrating.

After being recruited by the 7th Division, Qin Junhao was so happy his tail was practically wagging in the air. His father bought him a luxury car worth seven million, and he was showing off photos in the group chat.

Xu Xiaoqiang was fawning over him endlessly like a simp.

Fang Xin just watched for amusement, seeing these two put on a show in the group chat.

Half an hour ago, Chu Xinyao also sent a message, "Xiao Fang, I want to go to the Ocean Theme Park, will you come with me, please?"

Fang Xin thought of the time Chu Xinyao brought him potions, which counted as a favor owed, so he bought two tickets for tomorrow and sent her a screenshot.

Chu Xinyao happily replied.

"Wow! I knew Xiao Fang was the best! Oh, by the way, the results were supposed to be out the day after tomorrow, but they leaked early, so the school decided to release them tomorrow!"

Fang Xin was taken aback, not expecting an early release, but he already knew the outcome.

"Got it!"

"Wanna play some games?"

Fang Xin checked the time; his grandfather had said to look into the mirror before midnight, so there was still some time to kill.

"Log on!"

....

Xiao Wutong was pacing like a monkey that had eaten mustard.

He kept looking at Qin Junhao's report card over and over.

Each time he looked, he seemed on the verge of tears.

"This doesn't make sense! How could this happen? Ai Li, are you sure this Qin Junhao is the one you met in the alley that day?"

Ai Li's ice-blue eyes were fixed on the screen of a white-framed Smartlink Device, "I think so, but I can't remember clearly!"

Xiao Wutong rubbed his head vigorously, as if wearing a mask of pain.

"This can't be right, someone barely reaching B-rank Talent can't possibly have Level 4 combat power at this age.

I thought I found a treasure, rushed to intercept him, and now I'm a joke. Plus, that Qin Junhao threw a big banquet, spreading the news everywhere.

Oh my God, I can't take it, I really want to kick his butt with my size 42 shoes!"

Ai Li snapped the Smartlink Device shut, changing the subject, "We've been assigned a mission from above, the 7th Division is to protect someone!"

"Who?"

"Chu Xinyao! The detailed information has been sent to you!"

Xiao Wutong shook his wrist, and a small Smartlink Device popped out of his watch. After facial recognition, he saw the latest message.

"Oh my God, this girl is actually the daughter of that big shot! The remnants of the Eternal Night Army dare to kidnap his daughter!"

Ai Li continued, "That big shot is involved in a secret, and the remnants of the Eternal Night Army want to use his daughter to coerce him into exchanging for the secret.

But speaking of which, the infiltration of the Eternal Night Army remnants is too severe. This time, the early leak of results was arranged by someone from the Eternal Night Army remnants. They also want to muddy the waters, disguise themselves as a major force, and recruit some exceptionally talented individuals to strengthen their power!"

Xiao Wutong shook his head helplessly, suddenly exclaiming, "They actually sent a Level 8 combatant to kidnap this girl?"

Ai Li nodded, "That's why our group leader will personally come over!"

"We need to head out now to secretly protect that girl."

....

Fang Xin put down his phone, checked the time, and saw it was almost midnight. "Let's stop playing."

"Okay! I'm tired too."

"Get some rest."

"Alright! Goodnight! See you tomorrow!"

Putting down the phone.

Fang Xin got up and walked to the bathroom.

Looking at himself in the mirror.

He activated his blood energy.

The Slaughter Rune on the back of his hand glowed a bloodthirsty crimson.

But there was nothing unusual about his reflection in the mirror.

What exactly did his grandfather want him to see in the mirror?

Fang Xin stared at the mirror as the minutes ticked by.

At midnight, Fang Xin was still staring at the mirror, his mind flashing with bizarre legends, but ultimately, nothing unusual happened.

Following his grandfather's instructions, he stared for over half an hour but still saw nothing out of the ordinary.

Fang Xin exhaled.

Enough for today, it seemed he'd have to wait until tomorrow.

Fang Xin turned to leave the bathroom.

But just as he turned around.

Fang Xin suddenly froze.

A chill ran down his spine.

Because out of the corner of his eye, he saw.

The Fang Xin in the mirror.

Was standing with arms crossed.

Smiling at him!
