Chapter 1322

"Frined Gu is really amazing to be able to scare Chi Tianluo like that."

After Gu Chen and Ouyang Mo left the scorched land, Ouyang Mo praised him.

"It's that guy who is too timid."

Gu Chen shrugged his shoulders. Over the past six months, Chi Tianluo had left countless scars on his body. Gu Chen had let him off easy just by saying some words to scare him.

"Frined Gu must have suffered a lot in the past six months. Fortunately, he has finally regained his freedom."

Ouyang Mo glanced at Gu Chen's upper body, which was full of scars. One could imagine what kind of torture he had gone through.

To be able to maintain his original spirit under such torture was not something an ordinary person could do.

"Let's get down to business. Why did His Majesty let me out?"

Gu Chen was not familiar with Ouyang Mo, so he quickly changed the topic.

During the six months of imprisonment, although Gu Chen had been isolated from the world, he still knew about the situation outside through Feng Yaya.

The war between Xing County and Lin County was currently in a stalemate. Both sides had no intention of further expanding the war, so there was no shortage of generals to support them.

Gu Chen had thought that the day of his release was far away. He did not expect that the top management of the Shadow Department would come here today.

It was not the military department, but the Shadow Department. The reason was intriguing.

"Let's not beat around the bush. The reason why Frined Gu was released was because the Shadow Department pleaded with His Majesty."

Ouyang Mo said with a smile.

"Oh? Why is Fellow Ouyang helping me? "

Gu Chen's eyes flashed. During the last trial, Ouyang Mo had spoken up for him. As a stranger, he was really kind-hearted.

"It's not that the Old Man wants to help Frined Gu, but the Shadow Department has encountered some problems and needs help," Ouyang Mo explained.

"Oh? How can I help the Shadow Department? "Gu Chen was a little surprised.

"How much does Frined Gu know about the Shadow Department?" Ouyang Mo did not answer directly, but asked first.

"The Shadow Division is known as the Lord's Shadow. Usually, they are responsible for investigation, assassination, infiltration, and other extremely secretive operations," Gu Chen said in a low voice.

"That's right. Does Frined Gu know about the personnel structure of the film department?"

Gu Chen shook his head. The Shadow Department had always been mysterious. Not to mention him, who had just entered the Xing County, even many senior generals in the military didn't know much about them.

This was the result that Daolord Shape had deliberately created. The Intelligence Department needed to monitor the various operations of the military, so naturally, they had to ensure that the movement of personnel was highly confidential.

"The members of the Shadow Division are complicated. Not only do they have spies and assassins recruited from the various subsidiary worlds, but they also nurture a large number of spies in the other counties of the Chaos Sea. All these members can be called Shadow Guards. "

"The person in charge of these countless shadow guards is called Heaven's Shadow. There are a total of seven of them, and the Old Man is one of them."

Ouyang Mo introduced his duties and position to Gu Chen.

"I see. However, what does this have to do with the help that you want me to help with?" Gu Chen pondered and asked.

"Two months ago, in the Changshou World, which is under the rule of the Thunder County, we suddenly lost contact with one of the seven Heaven's Shadows, Peng Fu. His whereabouts are still unknown. We need someone to investigate this matter." Ouyang Mo made a request.

"Why me? Can't the other Heaven's Shadows or Daolord Ouyang do it personally? "

Gu Chen frowned. In his impression, the Thunder County was not only extremely far away, but its relationship with the Xing County was also like fire and water. This should be a difficult task.

"Frined Gu might not know this, but the seven Heaven's Shadows are active in the various counties of the Chaos Sea. Only one or two of them will stay in the Xing County."

"Right now, the other Heaven's Shadows have their own missions and can't find the time. Meanwhile, the Old Man has to stay in the Xing County."

"In addition, the one who went missing is the Heaven's Shadow. Ordinary Shadow Guards can't handle this matter at all. Therefore, after a careful investigation in the Xing County, we realized that only Frined Gu can handle this task."

Ouyang Mo tried to please him.

However, Gu Chen didn't accept his flattery. From his words, he could clearly feel the danger of this task. It might be possible that there was someone in the Xing County who could handle this task, but everyone had rejected it.

"Do I have a choice?" Gu Chen touched his nose.

He didn't want to accept a mission that he didn't know the background of easily. However, he knew that he was guilty, so it wouldn't be easy for him to push the blame away.

"The Lord has already agreed to this matter. If Lord Gu doesn't want to return to the Prison Planet, you can only accept this mission."

Ouyang Mo smiled awkwardly.

Gu Chen suddenly had the urge to slap him to death. It was obvious that he had no choice!

"In that case, I'll agree to it."

Even if the mission was a little dangerous, it was better than staying on the Prison Planet. Gu Chen accepted the conditions of the Shadow Guards.

"How many people are available for me this time?" After the matter was settled, Gu Chen asked for details.

"The relationship between the Thunder County and the Xing County has always been like fire and water. To avoid alerting the enemy, Frined Gu has to travel light. When we arrive at the World of Longevity, the Shadow Guards will contact Frined Gu." Ouyang Mo smiled awkwardly.

"So, no one can help me?" Gu Chen was speechless.

"The Shadow Guards have always been different from the Military Department. The first consideration is the secrecy of the mission. Therefore, Frined Gu can't bring too many people."

"But, Frined Gu, don't worry. Considering the potential danger of this mission, I have already discussed it with Brother Kong from the Ministry of Works. You can apply for a few weapons from the Ministry of Works."

Hearing this, Gu Chen's eyes flickered. He was a little tempted.

The Ministry of Works was the place where the killing weapons were made in the Xing County. He had long wanted to know more about it.

Although Feng Yaya could provide him with a lot of information, many things could only be understood after seeing it with his own eyes.

This was a great opportunity for him to find out the secrets of the Ministry of Works.

"I understand."

Gu Chen and Ouyang Mo discussed for a while longer. After confirming that they would depart in three days, he returned to his residence.

After returning from the prison, the first thing he did was to freshen up. He cut off his messy hair and changed into a clean and comfortable robe.

After doing all this, he looked like a brand new person. Although the scars on his body were still there, they made him look even more masculine and mighty.

After freshening up, Gu Chen ordered a guard to call Wu Li over.

There were many things he didn't know about this mission. Wu Li was one of the few people he could use by his side, so he naturally had to call him.

"Reporting to Lord Gu, General Wu Li is currently in the Ministry of Works. Lord Kong said before that if Lord Gu needs someone, you can go find him."

The guard answered timidly. There seemed to be something he was hiding.

"Why is Wu Li in the Ministry of Works?" Gu Chen frowned. He sensed that something was wrong.

"I don't know the specifics. I only know that General Wu Li has been in the Ministry of Works for some time."

The guard lowered his head. His voice trembled even more!

Seeing him like this, Gu Chen knew that it was useless to ask any more questions. He stood up.

"That's fine. I was going to the Ministry of Works anyway."
