Chapter 1110: Chapter 357: The Mastermind Arrives, Limit Breakthrough
"How many of them are there?" Mu Rufeng pondered for a moment before asking.
"Ten people, and it feels like this is just one group; there must be more, and I feel like they aren’t from this world."
Wang Luo had a strong intuition about these suddenly appearing Black-armored men, as if they weren’t from this world.
"It’s possible that the force behind the Rule Clock has secretly descended upon our world." Mu Rufeng spoke.
"It seems they indeed have some conspiracy, but why are they trying to capture us transmigrators?" Wang Luo fell into contemplation.
Initially, it didn’t feel like that, simply thinking they were here to attack their Dragon Group.
However, they weren’t interested in ordinary people, only striking them when counterattacked.
When facing transmigrators, they would proactively strike, but wouldn’t kill, only capture.
After capturing them, they were suppressed by the opponent’s firepower and quickly retreated.
"How is their strength?" Mu Rufeng asked again.
"Ordinary firearms are ineffective, unable to leave marks on the black armor. Sniper rifles can’t leave marks either, but the force can repel Black-armored men."
"Weapons like grenades and RPGs can repel them without breaking their defense, but can injure them with impact."
"Their strength is also very strong, definitely not inferior to my previous strength; their physical bodies are extremely formidable."
"In that case, our heavy weapons’ impact would surely be resisted by them unless we use even stronger firepower coverage to shock them to death alive." Wang Luo said.
"Did you use electric shocks? Or fire." Mu Rufeng slowly spoke.
"Our base doesn’t have electric shock guns or flamethrowers, but I’ve already made preparations." Wang Luo said.
"Hmm, once you find their location, notify me immediately; I’ll rush over. Also, prepare a knife for me, weight and style are not limited, but it must be strong; I need the best flexibility and hardness." Mu Rufeng said.
"Alright." Wang Luo responded and directly hung up the phone.
"Uh... Brother Feng, what you’re saying... I feel like I don’t quite understand." Yan Zhicheng looked at Mu Rufeng with a bewildered expression.
"If you don’t understand, then don’t listen; knowing these things won’t do you any good."
"By the way, how’s your new book?" Mu Rufeng asked, adhering to the two hundred words rule, even though he felt there might be some issues with the Rule, it’s still necessary to observe it.
"Brother Feng, I’m serious; what you said, I really want to know."
"My new book is doing great, first on the new book chart, already has two hundred thousand collections, and even got a Gold alliance."
"Quickly tell me, Brother Feng, you know me, I’m writing novels, and my curiosity is extremely strong." Yan Zhicheng asked again.
"With such good performance, shouldn’t you hurry home to write more."
"Curiosity killed the cat, don’t you know?" Mu Rufeng said indifferently.
"But I’m not a cat; it won’t kill me. Come on, Brother Feng, tell me."
"I’ll go home to write soon."
Mu Rufeng smiled and said, "I belong to a special department; the Rule Clock is something I messed up. As for the Rule, it was naturally told to me by people from the special department."
"Alright, that’s all I can say, I can’t say more, there’s a confidentiality clause."
Yan Zhicheng was shocked and looked at Mu Rufeng: "Brother Feng, is what you’re saying true?"
"Special department? The Rule Clock was messed up by you? The first person to ride a hot air balloon up was you?"
Mu Rufeng laughed and responded: "Of course, the signal isn’t good up there; otherwise, I would’ve called you."
"No wonder, no wonder last week when I called you it said you weren’t in the service area, turns out you really went up to the sky." Yan Zhicheng was greatly surprised.
Subsequently, Mu Rufeng started chatting with Yan Zhicheng intermittently.
After all, two hundred words per day must be said.
...
Twelve midnight.
Mu Rufeng lay on the bed, quietly waiting for something.
Two minutes later, the phone rang; it was Wang Luo.
Upon answering, Wang Luo’s voice came through: "It’s confirmed, the Rule is effective, but the punishment for breaking the Rule is wrong."
"Oh? Punishment for breaking the Rule? What is the punishment?" Mu Rufeng asked.
Wang Luo: "Originally, breaking the Rule made a person mute, but now after breaking it, you can still talk, but only ten sentences a day."
Mu Rufeng: "Ten sentences? That’s fine; as long as you don’t become mute, once that Rule is offline, you can recover."
Wang Luo: "Yeah, it seems like due to the Rule Clock’s collapse, the Rule can still descend, but the punishment for breaking will be much weakened."
Wang Luo had tried the Rule early on with some death row inmates.
It really worked out, so he immediately called Mu Rufeng to explain the situation.
"Group Leader Wang, is there any news about the Black-armored men?" Mu Rufeng inquired.
Wang Luo: "No, they have seemingly vanished, and there’s no news about the transmigrators either."
Mu Rufeng: "Anyway, keep investigating; I will also do my best to search online, notify me immediately if you find anything."
"Okay, by the way, your War Saber has been manufactured, should I deliver it to you tomorrow or will you come to the base to pick it up?" Wang Luo suddenly remembered something and hurriedly asked.
