“Qin Tian, where are you now?”Officer Yan’s face appeared on the video call, his expression somewhat serious.Qin Tian replied with a serious face, “Officer, I am on Silver Gray Star, ready for duty at any time.”“Good! Then head to Magnetic Vortex Star at your fastest speed.”“Yes!”During the call, Officer Yan didn’t explain much but directly issued the order.After the call ended, Qin Tian sent a message to Li Qi, Feng Mocuan, and others, then immediately ordered a ticket to Magnetic Vortex Star through software.However, the geographical location of Magnetic Vortex Star was very special. After checking, he realized that Magnetic Vortex Star was located within the Chaotic Star Region.The planet’s outer magnetic field was in an extremely chaotic state, entangled by twisted, giant-python-like magnetic lines. These magnetic lines sometimes danced wildly like tentacles, and at other times twisted into complex vortex structures. Ordinary spaceships, once they entered this area, would be caught in a spiral orbit by the disordered magnetic field, and their electronic equipment would instantly fail. Only specially modified spaceships could approach the planet and land on the ground.Due to the characteristics of the Chaotic Star Region and Magnetic Vortex Star, this planet had become a notorious den of iniquity, where Xingdao (Star Pirates), fugitives, and black market merchants gathered.There were no direct tickets from Silver Gray Star to Magnetic Vortex Star; a transfer was required at Golden Wood Star in the Chaotic Star Region.Qin Tian quickly purchased some essential supplies, then boarded the spaceship bound for Golden Wood Star.Inside a room on Magnetic Vortex Star, “Officer, is this Qin Tian really that formidable?”Behind Officer Yan, a young man with a crew cut asked, his tone seemingly carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.Beside him, there were also a man and a woman.The man looked to be in his thirties, with a short beard and a relatively mature appearance. The woman was in her twenties, with neat short hair, and her appearance leaned towards being more heroic.Officer Yan turned around and said with a faint smile, “Qin Tian’s abilities are special and very suitable for this mission.”The two men and one woman before him were all elites he had selected from the military or military academies. They had followed him for many years, and each of them was exceptionally capable and had very rich experience.However, this time the target was too cunning and cautious; they had tried various methods but could not find a breakthrough.Therefore, at this moment, he thought of the most special existence among all his subordinates.Qin Tian’s abilities, decisiveness, and methods displayed during the Evil God Sacrifice incident surprised him greatly. Furthermore, afterward, Qin Tian also befriended Elf King Serandir within a short period, helping the Elven Race eliminate the Dark Elves, quell a century of warfare, and simultaneously remove his own Evil God Curse.Although Qin Tian had never executed any mission for the Seventh Bureau, he still had faith in Qin Tian.This clone warrior, who rose faster than Lin Shuai did back then, might truly be able to use his Night Demon Bloodline to break through the current predicament.Upon hearing this, the crew-cut young man, Zhao Rui, said nothing, but he was still very unconvinced inside.One must know that they had already been on Magnetic Vortex Star for nearly half a month, trying various methods with little progress.Everyone was an elite of the Seventh Bureau, having executed various complex and high-difficulty missions, so their experience and ability were beyond question. Yet, Officer Yan’s highly praised Qin Tian was merely a newcomer who had joined the Seventh Bureau for less than a year and hadn’t even executed any missions. He still found it hard to believe that a newcomer could achieve what several of them couldn't.Chen Wei and Jiang Yihan had similar sentiments.The problems they couldn’t solve, their own leader actually believed a newcomer could fix. Anyone in their shoes would feel somewhat unconvinced.Experts with ability and achievements were all like this; they wouldn't easily trust a newcomer, even if that person was highly recommended by their superior.“Officer, when will he arrive?” Zhao Rui asked.Officer Yan checked the fastest flight from Silver Gray Star to Magnetic Vortex Star and said, “Eight days later.”“Eight days, that should still be enough time.”Zhao Rui thought to himself, “I’d like to see what you’re capable of.”Six days later, the spaceship landed on Golden Wood Star. The flight to Magnetic Vortex Star was scheduled to depart in six hours. During this interval, Qin Tian planned to explore the surrounding area. He had always been very curious about the special region of the Chaotic Star Region, and now he had time to get a preliminary understanding.Exiting the spaceport, Qin Tian found a rented unmanned aerial vehicle and set the destination to the nearest market.Upon arriving at the market, the buildings on the streets were largely similar to other places, mostly common reinforced concrete or metal structures, but the diversity of races was much richer.Imperial merchants crowded in front of maglev stalls, bargaining, while a group of Spiritual Energy Users dressed as mercenaries followed nearby, their eyes vigilantly scanning their surroundings.Spiritual Race members wrapped in black energy cloaks walked on the street, their paper-pale faces covered in spiderweb-like dark patterns. A third vertical pupil between their brows pulsed with a faint blue light, and tiny silver veins extended from the corners of their eyes, flowing like a star map beneath their skin.The star-dust-shaped ornaments dangling from their pointed ears jingled softly with each step. When a certain Spiritual Race girl raised her hand, the crystal bracelet on her wrist refracted prism-like cold light, making her thin lips appear even paler.Three high-ranking Beastmen walked side by side.The leading Lion-man had a fluffy golden mane, dark golden pupils like burning flames, and fine downy hair behind his ears trembled slightly with each breath. A leather collar wrapped around his neck, from which hung a talisman made from the claws of a Magnetic Vortex Star Iron-Maned Beast.The Bear-man’s shoulders were nearly three meters wide, his dark brown skin covered in battle scars, and dense fur grew on his thick arms. When he clenched his fist, the black pads on his knuckles were clearly visible.The Cat-man’s steps were light, his silver-gray vertical pupils vigilantly scanned the surroundings, and the white fur on his ear tips trembled with the breeze.A short blade hung from his waist, decorated with the tailbone of a feline, making a crisp, faint sound as he walked.Humans, Beastmen, and Spiritual Race, three races that were originally hostile, now appeared simultaneously on one street, coexisting peacefully and even engaging in business.Spiritual Race psionic technology equipment, Beastmen tribal war drums, and human elixirs were all displayed in shops or stalls along both sides of the street.Qin Tian walked a large circle around the market and also bought some items.However, shopping here was unique; one needed to first exchange Star Coins from a bank card into a type of blue crystal at an exchange counter, and then use the blue crystals to purchase corresponding goods.It was the same for the Spiritual Race and Beastmen; their financial systems were not interconnected, so transactions could only be completed through this intermediate currency.After eating at a distinctive tavern, Qin Tian walked down the street, deeply looking at the Spiritual Race and high-ranking Beastmen. It was a pity he had a mission to complete this time; otherwise, he could truly acquire some talents from these foreign races.Renting an unmanned aerial vehicle, Qin Tian returned to the spaceport an hour before the spaceship’s departure and successfully boarded the ship.Two days later, the spaceship passed through the chaotic magnetic field and landed at the Magnetic Vortex Star port.The port here was noticeably more primitive than those on other planets, and the sanitation was relatively poor. However, this planet was originally located in a lawless zone, so having a port was already quite good.Upon reaching the exit, Qin Tian immediately saw the person picking him up.It was a man with a neat crew cut, his stubble standing stiffly. His appearance wasn’t handsome, but his well-defined face exuded a masculine aura.On the way, Officer Yan had described the physical features and name of the person picking him up.This was the person, Zhao Rui. “Is he Qin Tian?”Zhao Rui narrowed his eyes, carefully observing Qin Tian walking towards him. The video image simply couldn’t convey the young man’s true demeanor—he was tall and well-built, with a sharp, commanding presence like a drawn sword. His stern face was chiseled, his brow like a sword, his nose bridge high, and his thin lips pressed into an indifferent curve. Most captivating were his eyes; his ink-black pupils held a keen edge that made people hesitant to meet his gaze directly.Damn it, why is a soldier so handsome!Zhao Rui cursed under his breath, a hint of sourness in his tone, then waved, “Over here~”Qin Tian walked forward, displaying a polite smile, “Zhao Rui, hello.”Zhao Rui grinned, extending a rough, large hand, “Qin Tian, I’ve heard much about you.”The moment their hands met, a sharp glint flashed in Zhao Rui’s eyes, and he suddenly exerted force in his palm. This was his usual method of testing—using seventy percent of his strength, neither too much nor too little, just enough to gauge the other person’s capabilities.However, the next second, his smile froze.“Bang!”A visible wave of air suddenly exploded between their palms, startling the surrounding travelers with the unexpected sound.Zhao Rui felt as if his hand was clamped by hydraulic pliers, his finger bones emitting an unbearable “crack, crack” sound.“The aerial vehicle is parked outside.” Zhao Rui forced himself to maintain a poker face, quickly withdrew his hand, and shoved it into his pocket. The hand hidden in his pocket trembled uncontrollably, and a bruise had already formed on the web between his thumb and forefinger.This kid… Zhao Rui glanced at Qin Tian’s calm profile from the corner of his eye, his heart churning with shock.His hand, which could crush alloy with bare hands, had actually suffered a great loss in just one encounter!What immense strength!To be honest, his perception of Qin Tian had changed. This guy was indeed a capable person, but the trouble they faced couldn’t be solved by brute strength alone.Sitting in a rather rudimentary aerial vehicle, Zhao Rui observed the surroundings while casually asking, “Qin Tian, Officer Yan mentioned that you’ve been in the Seventh Bureau for less than a year, right?”“Yes.” Qin Tian nodded in affirmation.“Then, to be honest, according to military regulations, you should address me as ‘Officer’.” Zhao Rui turned his head and said.“Is that so~”Qin Tian blinked, “I am a Colonel. And you are—?”WTF!Colonel!Zhao Rui’s face stiffened. After graduating from military academy, he was directly selected into the Seventh Bureau. It had been eight years now, and in these eight years, he had completed many missions, and his military rank had risen from Lieutenant upon graduation to Lieutenant Colonel.Eight years, three promotions—this was already a very fast promotion rate, and he was only just over 30 years old. In terms of resume, he could definitely be called a rising star in the military.But he didn’t expect that Qin Tian, who looked °• N 𝑜 v 𝑒 l i g h t •° even younger than himself, and had joined the Seventh Bureau for less than a year as a newcomer, was already a Colonel.Whose scion was this, after all?Why would he come to the Seventh Bureau to pad his resume?Zhao Rui didn’t believe that a young man from an ordinary family background could be promoted to Imperial Colonel at such a young age. It was clear that Qin Tian’s origins were not simple.“Ahem, Qin Tian, besides Officer Yan and me, there are two other colleagues later. I’ll introduce them to you in advance.”Zhao Rui subtly changed the subject, “The older one is Chen Wei, a bit older, with a steady personality. And there’s a short-haired beauty, Jiang Yihan, independent and fiery, known as the ‘Tigress’ in the Seventh Bureau.”Chen Wei, Jiang Yihan. Qin Tian kept these two names in mind.“Zhao Rui!”Just then, a voice very familiar to Qin Tian came from the miniature earpiece attached to Zhao Rui’s ear.The voice belonged to Officer Yan. Although the volume was extremely low, it couldn’t escape Qin Tian’s super hearing.“Your communication channel—you forgot to turn it off.”Officer Yan’s tone carried a hint of amusement.Immediately after, a cold female voice came out.“Tigress, Zhao Rui, I didn’t know I had such a reputation in the Seventh Bureau.”Click. Zhao Rui’s face instantly froze, his toes desperately curling, as if trying to dig a three-bedroom apartment out of the floor.In an attempt to cover up one embarrassment, he had created an even greater one.What to do?Let the world end!“Remember to turn off the channel next time.” Officer Yan’s voice was laced with laughter.Zhao Rui turned off the channel, slumped against the seat in despair, saying nothing.Qin Tian looked at Zhao Rui with full sympathy. Of all people to offend, he had to offend the most unprovokable woman beside him.Brother, may you rest in peace.An hour later, the aerial vehicle landed. Zhao Rui led Qin Tian into an unassuming shop. As soon as he opened the door, a pink fist flew at him, landing squarely on Zhao Rui’s face.“Ah!”Zhao Rui cried out in pain, covering his face.Bang!Another punch, hitting Zhao Rui’s abdomen, making him gasp and double over like a shrimp.“Tigress? How do you like my Tigress punch, Zhao Rui?”Only then did a heroic, short-haired beauty appear at the doorway, a hint of murderous intent in her eyes.“Beautiful Sister Yihan, I was wrong!”Zhao Rui straightened up, saying with a wry smile, “Can you give me a chance to turn over a new leaf?”“Hmph, a Tigress doesn’t give people chances; she only eats people!”Jiang Yihan snorted coldly, then turned and walked into the room.Seeing that Jiang Yihan seemed to be letting the matter go, Zhao Rui breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Qin Tian, saying, “Let’s go.”“Mm.”Qin Tian nodded and followed Zhao Rui into the shop.Stepping inside, Qin Tian saw Officer Yan, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time. Besides him, there were also Chen Wei and Jiang Yihan, whom Zhao Rui had mentioned.Chen Wei had broad shoulders and a square face, giving off a steady impression. Jiang Yihan was heroic and spirited, with neat short hair, but judging from her earlier stance, she was indeed a woman not to be trifled with.As Qin Tian observed the two, they were also observing Qin Tian.Upon meeting, Qin Tian left a deep impression on them. His appearance was too outstanding; he was tall and muscular, with a cold and clear face. At first glance, one might mistake him for a celebrity, but his deep and sharp eyes revealed his extraordinary nature.“Officer Yan, Qin Tian reporting for duty.”Qin Tian stood before Officer Yan, his feet together, and saluted him with a standard military salute.Seeing this, a smile appeared on Officer Yan’s face.“Qin Tian, you’ve come at just the right time.”
