As soon as he said these words, those people were immediately startled. The expressions on their faces froze, the hairs on their backs stood up, and a chill started from the soles of their feet and went up to their necks.
"This this……"
Shi Yong was stunned. He obviously did not expect that things would develop like this. He was still imagining that he had passed the opponent's test and was ready to contact the extraordinary world full of unknowns.
But now, the other party's words were like a bucket of cold water, bringing him back to reality instantly.
"Well... Star Lord, we are actually... also trying to complete your mission, so we didn't think about that much..."
He stammered out his inner defense, feeling that the man in front of him was staring at him with eyes that were as penetrating as the scorching sun, making him unable to raise his head to look at him, as if he could see directly into his heart.
If in the past, Shi Yong had heard anyone say that there were people in this world who could make others surrender just by looking at him, it must have been because he had watched too many movies.
In reality, at most, it is just the psychological pressure caused by the momentum of status, not real oppression. After depriving the other party of his power and status, you can't even feel a trace of psychological fluctuation when you look at him.
Shi Yong, as a rich second generation from a fairly well-off family, understands this very well.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some psychology masters can use the focus of their eyes to deliberately create tension and make the other party have negative emotions.
But now, when he was under the gaze of the man opposite, he deliberately affirmed that he indeed felt the oppression, so real that it almost made him unable to breathe.
In fact, what he didn't know was that this feeling did not arise out of nothing, but was a kind of mental oppression.
After Zhang Xiaoman's mental power has improved, there is no need for skills at all. Staring at an ordinary person like this will also bring strong pressure to the other person.
Moreover, in addition, not only in terms of mental power, but also in the essence of life, he can affect the other party.
Because they have awakened dark energy and possess extraordinary power, the awakened person will naturally feel a sense of oppression when facing ordinary people.
This feeling is not as substantial as spiritual power, but it can subconsciously influence the other person, making them involuntarily feel awe and other emotions towards themselves.
These are just what Shi Yong felt in these short few breaths. He was the closest, bore the brunt, and suffered the greatest pressure.
"I don't like smart people."
Zhang Xiaoman withdrew his gaze and said:
"However, your ability is indeed sufficient, but joining us is not just that simple."
His turn of events immediately made those people raise their heads, and the light of hope reappeared in their eyes.
"The world you see in your eyes is only a part of it. There are too many unknown fogs in this world, and dangers are everywhere."
"We are the watchmen who exist on the edge of this fog, blocking danger from the world..."
Zhang Xiaoman looked at them and said slowly:
"Our organization is not what you imagined. After joining here, you will always face the test of life and death. Do you understand this?"
After hearing this, the expressions on the faces of those people suddenly changed. From the previous shock, to the later darkness, and now to the curiosity and excitement, everyone seemed to see a mysterious organization that silently protects the world, fighting with those indescribable people in every corner. Fighting evil spirits, carrying a burden that people cannot see.
They are all a group of young people, and they are adventurous. In addition, everyone loves to search for these ancient myths and legends. Now when they heard Zhang Xiaoman's words, they were immediately aroused in their hearts.
"Xing, Star Lord! Please let me join! Let you and I become the same people as you! I want to work with you to protect this world!"
Behind Shi Yong, Alarm Clock suddenly spoke, his tone extremely exciting and passionate, and everyone else nodded along with a "we too" look.
Dane and Sam acted as background throughout the whole process. In fact, not only the guys from the Canglan Expedition, but also these two brothers were also agitated in their hearts at this moment. If it weren't for maintaining their image as guardians, they would probably He has long been shouting to invest in the construction of the Star Alliance.
Zhang Xiaoman shook his head slightly.
"You are just ordinary people. It is not that easy to become a member of the organization... I think of you to fulfill my request. I can forget about what happened yesterday, but if you want to join us, you still need to go through a real test. .”
"Then, I wonder what kind of test it is...?"
Xia Sha asked carefully, and the others looked at him expectantly.
Zhang Xiaoman glanced at her. This girl was very nice. She was the calmest among them.
"I believe you have heard some topics about monsters these days. My test is very simple. I need you to help me collect that information, and then within a month, send at least 20 pieces of valid information to me. , I will depend on your results whether it can be passed."
"Okay! Don't worry, Star Lord! We will definitely complete the mission! We will never let you down!"
When those people heard this, they almost didn't hesitate and immediately took over the task.
Naturally, they are no strangers to the topic of monsters currently circulating on the Internet, as well as the talk of spiritual energy recovery.
But because they had been busy looking for this mysterious organization, they didn't pay much attention to such incidents. Now after accepting the mission assigned by the other party, they naturally understood that these monsters should be real.
Thinking that they were about to come into contact with such an extraordinary world, they couldn't help but become excited, and their minds were filled with thoughts.
It seems that they are going to join the camp that resists the darkness. The feeling of getting a glimpse of the truth of the world makes them want to stop.
On the other hand, the main reason why Zhang Xiaoman gave the other party this task was not whether they could complete it. What he finally said was to decide whether to pass the test based on the results, rather than requiring the other party to meet the 20-part requirement. Just fine.
He wanted to see if, with the abilities of these guys, he could collect as much intelligence as possible for himself. After all, there was a super hacker among them.
If the other party could really meet his requirements, he wouldn't mind setting up a Canglan Department to collect intelligence for this purpose.
