After moving the items into the weapon collection room, Chen Chuan placed them in a corner of the room. He turned on the lights, and under the light, each piece of armor shone.

At this moment, he also took the repaired Spear of the Iron Demon and placed it in the hands of the mannequin. After fastening the movable joints, he stepped back a few steps, looked at it, and nodded with satisfaction.

Now it's in place.

He then took out the two ceremonial swords he had been awarded, as well as the short sword confiscated from Fei Tong. He wiped them with maintenance oil and then placed them in the predetermined positions.

Finally, he also placed the Star Honor Pistol on the gun rack on the wall.

Although there wasn't much to gain this time, he believed that over time, the collection here would grow.

After standing here admiring it for a while, he left the villa and drove back to Mysterious Palace Tower. When entering the underground parking lot, he nodded to Hong Fu above.

After parking the car and returning to the dormitory, he took a shower, did some simple Breathing Technique Cultivation, and went back to rest.

The next morning, after getting up and washing, he made a cup of hot drink and came to the window, looking at the scenery outside from this corner of the building.

The winter sun was bright and dazzling, shining in and lighting up the room, casting long shadows behind.

He stood here for a while.

He clicked on the Boundary Token and logged into the Academy's platform.

He participated in the defense mission not only to obtain Special drugs, but also to have access to upper-level Strength.

Now he can apply to Wuyi for a guiding teacher to point out the next path for his Cultivation.

So he clicked a few times, quickly went to the relevant interface, and clicked on the application.

This time, he ticked the option of whether he had participated in the defense plan and sent it up.

After a while, Hong Fu's voice sounded in his ear:

"Student Chen Chuan, your guidance application has been received. Because your application qualification needs to be verified, it may take a few hours. Please be patient."

Chen Chuan thought for a moment that the data from the Convergence Zone hadn't been updated yet, so he could only wait. He looked at the time.

It was already late December, and he was almost ready to return to Yang Zhi.

So after thinking about it, he went out and sent a Telegram to his family to inform them that he would be back in a few days.

Then he contacted Old Qi to ask how things were going recently.

Old Qi told him that his daughter Qiqi had been successfully transferred to a school under the arrangement of Fusion Boundary Company, and that he had been hiding in the room arranged by Wu Bei these days. Everything was normal, and no one had come to cause them trouble.

However, in order to avoid the limelight recently, he was only spending money and not earning it, so he didn't have enough money. He planned to go out to do Commissions after the New Year.

Wu Bei interjected at this time: "Recently, I saw that no one was looking for Old Qi's whereabouts nearby. I think they either gave up or found the main person."

Chen Chuan hmmmed and said, "If this is the case, that's the best, but we still can't be careless. I won't be in Central City during the New Year. Old Qi, if you need money, you can take it from the team's public expenditure first. Don't rush to pay it back. You can make up for it when you have a surplus in the future."

Old Qi knew that at this time, it's better to be careful than to be reckless for a little profit, so he said: "Brother Chen, Brother Wu, don't worry, I know what to do. You two have helped me so much. I can't help you, but what I can do is to try not to cause you any trouble."

Chen Chuan thought that if the plague group in the Lower City District didn't come looking for them again, he wouldn't pursue it any further. After all, those things had nothing to do with them, but if they really came looking for them, then don't blame him for being impolite.

After ending the call, he communicated with Fusion Boundary Company. Yan Yi was responsible for replying. He told her about his return to Yang Zhi and asked about the Company's recent situation.

Yan Yi replied that there were no Anomaly situations on Meng Shu's side, the Company's business had returned to normal, and informed him that there would be a bonus deposited into his account at the end of the year.

Seeing that everything was fine here, he contacted Gao Ming, Lu Fang and others to inform them that he would be back soon. Gao Ming said that he still couldn't get away from the law firm during the New Year, and he didn't have anyone at home, so he didn't plan to go back.

Lu Fang said that he was preparing to return to Yang Zhi, so Chen Chuan suggested that he might as well take his car back together. Lu Fang thought it was okay, thanked him, and the two agreed on a date.

After notifying everyone who should be notified, he began to prepare to go home.

While working, he logged on to the defense plan platform to check. After going to the Convergence Zone, many functions could be seen, the largest section of which was the transaction platform.

The biggest deal on this platform was the transaction of Special drugs. After all, some Third Limit Martial Artists, due to their own ability limitations, did not have the motivation to go up, or realized that they were not talented enough, and simply gave up, only using Special drugs as a source of income.

This thing was indeed very popular, and as long as the price wasn't too outrageous, it was almost taken away as soon as it came out.

Secondly, there were various special items and intelligence transactions in the Convergence Zone.

The latest address is 83.

The Convergence Zone was very large, and new species and things that had never been touched were discovered almost every day. These were acquired by official organizations, Companies, and even specialized intelligence.

He only discovered here that, in addition to the Martial Artists organized by the Government and Companies, the platform was also full of a large number of folk Martial Artists. These people were unwilling to be restrained and accepted employment in the form of hire. Most of the time, they were employed by Companies, and sometimes they also accepted tasks from Governments around the world.

And these mercenaries, except for a few Third-Limit Martial Artists, were mostly First and Second Limit Martial Artists.

He didn't know where these people came from at first, but later learned from Councilor Pei that most of the soldiers and Martial Artists in the Base were trained in the army, and some came from the residential areas and cities established behind the Convergence Zone.

These places were originally just outposts and exploration points of Governments and Company Unions around the world, but over the past seventy years, they have grown larger and larger.

The residents of these cities and residential areas constituted the main source of lower-level mercenaries in the Convergence Zone. They were on the front line themselves, so they had the motivation and willingness to participate in the defense plan.

However, because most of them had been in the Convergence Zone since birth and had almost no contact with the peripheral cities and Central City, this made him see that there were many hidden dangers.

However, it was not his turn to care about these things. He came to the query section. In addition to understanding information, the main thing was that he needed to establish a team, so he wanted to see if he could recruit suitable personnel from here.

After entering his number, a lot of personnel information jumped out.

After flipping through it briefly, there were indeed many people who looked suitable on the surface, but he still needed to meet them in person. After looking at it, he felt that a certain person was more suitable, so he sent a conversation invitation.

But after waiting for a while, the other party never responded. It seemed that the other party was not there.

At this time, Hong Fu's prompt sounded in the Boundary Token:

"Chen student, your guidance application has passed the review committee's review. Please be patient. The Academy will send you the information of the guiding teacher in a month."

Chen Chuan thought about it, a month later, that would be after the New Year, but it didn't matter. Even if a teacher was arranged now, they wouldn't come to teach him at the end of the year. It just so happened that it wouldn't delay his return to Yang Zhi.

After receiving this news, he felt much happier.

After exiting the platform, he spent half a day sorting things out. Then he went out again and bought some gifts at Precious Fruit Market as usual.

On the way back, he turned the steering wheel and came to the place where Tan Zhi lived.

The place where this person rented was a Mansion. The layout looked similar to Teacher Zheng's house. After contacting him with the outer Boundary Token, the door opened and he drove in.

Tan Zhi's voice came from his ear: "Chen classmate, park anywhere in the open space. I'm in the practice room. Just come in."

Chen Chuan parked the car outside, came to the front of the practice room, took off his shoes and walked in.

When he got inside, he saw Tan Zhi standing in front of the Weapon rack, wiping the sweat from his head with a towel. Opposite him was a shapely Female Teacher, wearing a practice suit, standing there with a sharp aura.

However, this person's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw Chen Chuan.

Tan Zhi introduced: "This is Teacher Wei, whom I specially invited to guide me. Teacher Wei, this is my classmate, Chen Chuan."

Chen Chuan felt that at the moment of seeing himself, this Teacher Wei's eyes seemed to show a trace of panic, but it was quickly suppressed.

He looked at the other person twice and nodded, saying: "Teacher Wei."

Teacher Wei smiled, "So it's Chen classmate. I've heard Tan classmate mention you. I've seen the recording of your fight with Wei Wusheng. You're very powerful."

Chen Chuan said: "Thank you."

Teacher Wei turned to Tan Zhi and said: "Tan classmate, since your classmate is here, we won't bother you." With that, she nodded to the two of them and walked straight out.

Tan Zhi hurriedly said: "Teacher Wei, walk slowly."

He turned to Chen Chuan and said: "This Teacher Wei is not easy to invite. She is now a security consultant for the City Council. It is said that she has a very good relationship with a certain council member, well, that's it, you know... If it wasn't for my family's previous funding for her, she owed a favor, otherwise it would be impossible to come and teach me."

Saying that, he came to the freezer here, took out two cans of drinks, handed Chen Chuan a can, opened his own, and drank it down, exhaling a breath.

"Today, the neighboring Dance Drama Academy has a new song and dance performance. It is said that many new students have joined. How about it, are you interested in watching a show? You can call Pan Xiaode and Qi Huixin to go together."

Chen Chuan said: "Forget it, I'm going to prepare to go back to Yang Zhi these two days. I came here today to see you and pick up Zhao Ming."

Tan Zhi said regretfully: "Then we'll have to wait until next time. By the way, Chen classmate, you told me last time that you bought some services from the Secret Serpent Cult. I heard that they need a referrer. Can you introduce me"

The latest address is 83.
