2108 Leng Shaoting Helps

Because of the strange person, he failed to finish the task this time.

Although it was impossible to win every time and they often lost at the beginning, they rarely failed during these years. Even if they made some mistakes during a task, they would succeed in the end. However, this time, he had no confidence at all.

No matter how powerful they were, they were mortals. If their enemy was really a person with magical skills, it was naturally hard to deal with. Besides, many teammates were injured. Two of them had to rest for a few months to have a full recovery.

"I killed him," said Leng Shaoting.

"What? That's crazy! How did you do it?" asked Song Haoyu excitedly. It was shocking that Leng Shaoting was able to kill such a strong person who had magical skills.

"Relied on my abilities," said Leng Shaoting.

Hearing that, Song Haoyu didn't know what to say. Was Leng Shaoting implying that he was better than them?

Song Haoyu had to admit that he was weaker than Leng Shaoting and he lost every time he sparred with Leng Shaoting. However, the person had magical skills. It was very hard for mortals to deal with.

Anyway, since Leng Shaoting said he had killed the person, it must be the truth because there was no need for Leng Shaoting to lie to them.

"What kind of people with magical skills have you met?" Song Haoyu asked again. He wanted to know whether they had met people of the same kind.

"Ninjas from Country R. They have the same skills as the person you just described, but I'm not sure you met a ninja from Country R too. After all, there aren't only ninjas from Country R who could do that in this world. We just haven't met more kinds of people with magical skills, so we know nothing about them," said Leng Shaoting. Since Song Haoyu and the others had already found out the existence of people with magical skills, Leng Shaoting thought he shouldn't keep it a secret from them any longer, but he couldn't tell them much about it, at least not right now.

Therefore, even though there were more people with magical skills than ninjas and cultivators in this world, Leng Shaoting only told them about ninjas. In that case, they could stay alert to Country R.

"Ninjas from Country R?"

Knowing that, Song Haoyu and his two teammates were amazed.

They had definitely heard of Ninjas, but they learned about ninjas from the TV and books. They couldn't believe that ninjas really existed.

"Are ninjas the same as they are described in the TV and books," asked Song Haoyu.

"Basically the same," said Leng Shaoting.

"Wow, it's amazing."

Song Haoyu and the others were surprised once more. Ninjas could become invisible! This was really a fantastic world.

"You can deal with ninjas! Leng Shaoting, I can't believe you're so powerful!" Song Haoyu complimented and admired Leng Shaoting more than ever.

"Yeah," said Leng Shaoting. He didn't bother to be modest and looked quite serious.

Song Haoyu was struck dumb for a second, then complained. "Couldn't you be modest for a moment?"

"It's the truth," Leng Shaoting said.

Song Haoyu shut his mouth. Although it was the truth, was it alright to put it so bluntly?

"If so, can you help us with this task? I can give you half of the reward." Song Haoyu discussed it with Leng Shaoting. Since Leng Shaoting was able to deal with people with magical skills, he should be able to deal with the task too.

"No need, just buy me a meal," said Leng Shaoting. They were friends and it would only hurt their relationship if they talked about how to share the money. In fact, even if Song Haoyu didn't call him, he wouldn't stay on the sidelines once he knew about it.

Although the fact that people with magical skills, ghosts, and monsters really existed wasn't yet exposed, Wei Lingfeng already assigned Leng Shaoting to deal with strange things which ordinary people couldn't handle. As long as strange things appeared, he had to take the responsibility.

"Thank you so much!" Song Haoyu was grateful for Leng Shaoting's help, but then he said seriously, "It's a very dangerous task after all, so I hope that you will be careful."

"I know," said Leng Shaoting. Anyway, since he promised to help, he would handle it well. He gave Song Haoyu that answer simply to help him feel relieved and not be mentally burdened. After all, the task was assigned to him in the beginning.

Song Haoyu understood that Leng Shaoting was very stable, so he said nothing further.

"Alright, I shouldn't keep you here any longer. My two teammates are seriously injured in the hospital. I need to visit them. I'll call you when we get clues," said Song Haoyu. Although they were no match for the person, they should be able to find out where he went.

"Seriously injured?" Leng Shaoting frowned. "How serious?"

Song Haoyu sighed and looked upset. "Their organs are wounded. It will take months for them to recover."

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting turned to look at Gu Ning. Gu Ning immediately understood his meaning. He hoped that she could treat Song Haoyu's teammates. She agreed, so she nodded at him.

She didn't know Song Haoyu's teammates, but they were soldiers and served their country. They deserved the highest respect, so Gu Ning would help them even if they were strangers.

"I'll go with you," said Leng Shaoting. He didn't tell them his purpose right now because then he would need to explain it.

Song Haoyu was surprised, but didn't say no.

Afterwards, they went to the Military General Hospital together.

In the car, when Leng Shaoting was alone with Gu Ning, he asked her, "Ningning, do you think the person they met is a cultivator or a ninja?"

"I think it's more likely to be a ninja. Cultivators won't behave against the military. We're living in the same country after all. Well, it's not always true, but the probability is very low. Ninjas, however, are different because they're from Country R. Given Country R's relationship with our country, their every deed is challenging and hurting our whole country," said Gu Ning.

"I agree it's more likely to be a ninja. I have the same idea as you," said Leng Shaoting.

Whether it was a cultivator or a ninja, he had already committed the crime of shielding the fugitive, so he might be sentenced the death penalty once he was caught.

"Oh!" All of a sudden, Gu Ning thought of something.

"What?" Leng Shaoting asked.

"I know two ninjas that are in the capital. I wonder if they might have something to do with this," said Gu Ning. She suddenly remembered Kuraki Akemi and Kato Toya.

Hearing that, Leng Shaoting became serious. "No matter what, we must spy on them."

"I'll tell K to investigate it and find out where the two ninjas stay," said Gu Ning and called K at once.

Because K had stopped spying on them for a long time, it took a while for him to find where they were right now.
