Using the MC system to pretend spiritual revival

Chapter 114 The Archaeological Quartet

"Hey, I was just about to ask, Director Tan's base is decorated in a very unique way."

Tan Hui and Director Li walked leisurely through the underground base corridor, chatting occasionally.

Director Li, who was looking around and observing, suddenly blurted out this sentence out of nowhere.

However, it was clear that this question hit Tan Hui right where it hurt.

Director Tan, who had been wearing a formulaic smile, immediately turned around with his eyes shining and began to explain.

"My base, in the beginning, was only larger and required more investment than other places. In terms of decoration style, it was no different from other places. It followed scientific principles."

After saying that, he paused for a moment, as if to keep someone in suspense, before continuing.

"But in today's society, we can't just talk about science; we should also talk about metaphysics appropriately."

As they walked, Tan Hui pointed to a brass incense burner in the corner, where wisps of smoke were rising, and said with absolute certainty:
"What you see now is the result of the feng shui redesign and rearrangement of this base by the most authoritative feng shui master in the country, whom I asked to invite, and Master Yang Ping, whom you just met and who gave the lecture."

"Don't underestimate this strange thing, it really works. I've been sleeping much more soundly these past few days, and we've even had such a distinguished guest like you."

As he was speaking, he suddenly changed the subject and smoothly flattered Director Li in front of him.

However, Li Junguo, who was tired of hearing such flattery, just chuckled and quietly changed the subject.

"Director Tan, why don't you tell me about the team of superhumans we're about to meet on the way here? It'll be easier for me to understand them and cooperate with them later."

Upon hearing this, Tan Hui didn't refuse, and with his usual smiling expression, he replied.

"Oh, right, right, look at my memory, I should have told you in advance."

He then reached out, and Secretary Wang, who had been waiting nearby, handed him the file folder.

Tan Hui took the file bag, opened it, pulled out four detailed personal files, and handed them to Director Li beside him.

After Li Junguo took it, he also began to carefully read through it.

On the first page is a photo of a young man.

However, the young man looked somewhat unhealthy, with dry, shriveled skin and sunken eye sockets.

However, there are many people who change their appearance after awakening, and Director Li, who has seen many, doesn't care at all.

Instead, they continued downwards and began reading the text in the archives.

"Jiang...Sheng...Ping?"

He silently read out the name of the person in the file, and then began to silently browse through the information below, including their abilities and past work experience.

There's nothing wrong with what's written; the records do indeed show that he entered and exited the top-tier, ominous site, the Tomb of a Hundred Kings.

Before being transformed into a superhuman, they were experienced archaeological team members.

After carefully reviewing them and finding no problems, I began to look through the remaining three pages.

They were an elderly man, a middle-aged man with slightly dark skin and short hair, and a short girl with a round face.

The three individuals had largely identical records, indicating that they had previously worked on the same archaeological team.

After being transformed into a superhuman, they were also placed in the same superhuman team.

They should be very cooperative, given their extraordinary status and experience in entering and leaving the Tomb of a Hundred Kings.

Dealing with the cave tomb I'm tasked with should be no problem.

Thinking this to himself, he smiled with satisfaction and nodded.

He then returned the file to Director Tan, who was waiting nearby.

"No problem, Director Tan. Just like you said on the phone before, I think this team can really help me."

After speaking, he noticed that Director Tan, who had a protruding belly and was standing very close to him, was looking at him with a sweet smile.

He frowned slightly, silently took a step to the side, and increased the distance between them.

"Director Tan, why don't we speed things up? In this world where demons and monsters are rampant, we need to hurry, otherwise every minute and every second will put more people at risk."

Seeing that the other party was using this label to pressure him, Tan Hui had no choice but to take the lead and personally guide the way.

And so, the four of them took a winding, circuitous route and then took the elevator down one floor.

Finally, Li Junguo met the four people listed in the files in an indoor training room.

This position was naturally arranged in advance by Tan Hui after receiving the news.

Otherwise, given the current shortage of manpower in Fog Mountain, how could there be a team of superhumans available?

The heavy glass door automatically moved aside after detecting someone's presence.

Tan Hui led the group behind him into the room.

This commotion naturally couldn't be kept secret from the four people inside the room who had already transformed into superhumans.

The moment they entered, they turned their gazes over there.

Upon realizing it was their bureau chief, they all stopped exercising.

Somewhat curiously, they looked at the two unfamiliar faces following behind the other person.

"Chief, is there anything I need to discuss with you beforehand?"

On a small stool near the door, an elderly man who looked to be over 70 years old and was very thin slowly stood up.

He stepped forward and asked.

"Ah~ it's about the overseas assignment I told you about before."

"Look, the leader who sought your help has come in person. I'll bring him here to introduce him to you first."

When asked, Tan Hui offered a brief explanation.

He then stepped aside, revealing Li Junguo and his assistant behind him.

Director Li straightened his collar, stepped forward with a smile, and looked at the four people in the room. However, his smile froze on his face at their strange attire.

He began to compare the relatively decent-looking photos in the file with the actual people in the photos one by one.

"Jiang Shengping?"

"Blind Jiang, that's what everyone calls him now."

Jiang Shengping, dressed in scholar's clothes and with one eye covered by a black cloth, was somewhat displeased when he heard the man suddenly call him by his real name and gave him a reminder.

Director Li, who was now looking completely bewildered, turned his gaze to the middle-aged man with slightly darker skin in the group.

Before he could even ask, the other party noticed his gaze and immediately stated their code name.

"Dumb."

A tall, middle-aged man dressed in coarse linen clothes, with dull eyes and dark skin, said a few words briefly and then fell silent again.

Then, the remaining two, without waiting for him to call out names one by one, directly gave their code names:
"Spirit Bird".

A round-faced girl wearing a yellow Taoist robe and black-rimmed glasses said.

"Just call me Old Man Gu. Hey~ You want to go tomb raiding? Then you've come to the right person~"

Originally Professor Gu Chen, now known as "Old Gu Tou".

With messy, half-black and half-white hair and wearing a bulky cotton coat, he walked forward while talking, looking at Director Li with a smile.

As he moved, Director Li heard a series of chaotic clattering sounds coming from inside the other person's bulky cotton-padded clothes.

Then, in the next moment.

"Pap~"

A black donkey hoof fell to the ground through the other person's wide sleeve.

This scene left Li Junguo speechless, and he opened his mouth to say something.

Jiang Shengping, who had just introduced himself as "Blind Jiang," immediately raised his hand and pressed his eye sockets, which were covered by a black cloth.

His tone was full of melancholy and reminiscence, as if he had been through many hardships.

"Back then, Master Yang and I went down into the Tomb of a Hundred Kings, and we barely escaped with our lives, even losing our eyes..."

This sentence immediately shut up what Li Junguo was about to say.

His face looked unnatural, so he quickly and discreetly pulled Tan Hui, who was standing next to him, and walked out the door.

As the two stepped out of the room, the glass partition rose again, separating the room. The next moment, Li Junguo shouted out in a tone full of doubt.

"Old Tan, are you sure these people are archaeologists? Have you investigated thoroughly?"

"The more I look at it, the more it resembles tomb raiding."

"Our bureau has very strict regulations; you will be punished for altering files without authorization!"

After hearing these words, Tan Hui could only awkwardly smile and earnestly swear an oath.

"Director Li, don't worry, this person is absolutely 100% a genuine archaeology graduate."

"It's just because he changed industries and changed his appearance. His professional skills are still trustworthy."

As he spoke, Director Tan took out the file folder again and pointed to the abilities recorded in the file:

“Look, Jiang Shengping, uh… that’s the blind man Jiang from earlier, he’s a PhD in archaeology.”

"After graduation, I visited 13 tombs with my mentor and handled the excavation of hundreds of precious cultural relics."

"And this one, Gu Chen, Professor Gu, is also a very well-known figure in the archaeology circle."

"They are proficient in various methods of tomb raiding from ancient times to the present, both in the East and the West. After all, spiritual energy is reviving now, and these things might actually be useful, right?"

"And then there's him..."

For the next half hour, Tan Hui analyzed the advantages and capabilities of his superhuman squad from multiple perspectives, angles, and levels.

This clarified for Li Junguo the inevitable success and high returns of this operation.

In short, he used a lot of persuasion to convince the unstable Director Li.

Finally, in a daze, he signed the transfer contract and was then escorted to the gate of the base.

Finally, as Tan Hui smiled and waved goodbye, the large iron gate slammed shut.

Just then, a gust of scorching sandstorm swept past.

They shaved the thick wig on Director Li's head to one side, turning it into a flip-top.

It allowed his stuffy head to feel a cool sensation.

Taking advantage of the coolness, he suddenly came to his senses.

Looking back, there was the closed iron gate and the gilded plaque that shone brightly in the sunlight, almost painful to the eyes.

Penguin Logistics

At this moment, Li Junguo felt as if he had been cheated, but he couldn't find any evidence.

He could only lick his dry lips and, with his beautiful assistant, walked towards the parked van.

When I opened the car door.

Looking back, I saw the group of four standing in the wind, dressed in tattered linen ancient costumes, being blown around by the wind.

Looking at his own five-seater minivan, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"What are you standing there for? Come here now."

"Get in the car, let's go."
