Survival in the dormitory, I was pulled into the management group

Those burned by the flames grimaced and screamed in agony.

But the flames did not ignite their bodies; they only brought them pain.

Moreover, the level of pain is extremely intense.

There was a burly, black man with a stubble beard who looked incredibly fierce, but he was screaming in pain.

When it was Chen Bei's turn, he stepped over the brazier, and pain instantly enveloped his entire body, a double pain both inside and outside his body.

He had an exceptionally high tolerance for such things, and he didn't utter a sound, silently passing through all the braziers.

Each person who passed through had an extra brand on the back of their hand.

The branded pattern is the symbol of the re-creation of the church.

It's similar to a tattoo that can be hidden, but it doesn't have any other special abilities.

Chen Bei looked at the brand on his hand and hoped that there would be a way to remove it in the future.

"You've really impressed me. You didn't say a word just now. I've decided to promote you to a senior member, making an exception for you! Others have to accumulate seniority or make meritorious contributions to become senior members. You're the first one to become a senior member right after joining."

The core members treated Chen Bei differently.

The Re-creation Church has a hierarchical system, starting with new members, then members, senior members, core members, clergy, and finally the leader at the top of the pyramid.

Chen Bei became a senior member as soon as he entered.

But there's no need to be happy about it.

It was getting late, and there were no more activities planned. Someone arranged for the newcomers to rest.

In this way, Chen Bei successfully infiltrated the Re-creation Church and became a member.

Before going to bed, he had a private chat with the flag leader and explained the situation.

Since only he passed the review, all internal matters depended on him, and the flag leader could only provide external support.

There was a little incident tonight.

Chen Bei's dormitory was attacked by dwarves, but fortunately, Nie Xiaoqian was there to hold the fort, and with the help of Tianlang and others, the attack was successfully defended and nothing serious happened.

If things are stable at home, Chen Bei can focus on advancing the game outside.

I fell asleep at night.

Chen Bei was plunged into a nightmare once again.

It's another nightmare brought to him by Gando!

In the nightmare, a cold and enormous dragon eye stared intently at Chen Bei, without uttering a word.

This gaze made Chen Bei very uncomfortable; it was a kind of mental pressure.

This resulted in extremely poor sleep quality for him tonight. He was still exhausted when he woke up, and did not get any rest. It even activated a negative buff.

Gandhar's power still troubles him!

If this continues, we really need to consider returning all the treasure.

or……

Chen Bei has another option.

Mu Bai's gang does whatever they want, killing, arson, and robbing. They should be very interested in the Dragon's Treasure.

Alternatively, we could try using someone else to do the dirty work, using this group to completely eliminate the dragon Gandhar and prevent future troubles.

At present, Chen Bei's priority is to rebuild the church, and he will not concern himself with anything else for now.

Today, the Rebirth Church has plans for these newcomers.

The core members personally inquired about each new member's situation, such as their experience, occupation, and purpose for joining.

When it was Chen Bei's turn, he took out a pre-prepared story and fabricated a false identity.

He had stayed in Oak City before and was quite familiar with the place, so he set the fabricated identity and background in Oak City, making it sound very convincing.

“You can speak freely this time. Don’t be too reserved. I want to hear what’s on your mind. Why did you join the Rebirth Church?” the core member asked, squinting.

"I'm very curious about what the Rebirth Church is actually doing, and whether it really has the ability to destroy the world. Hundreds of years ago, even the Great Demon King couldn't do it. If I had to explain my motive, this would be my biggest motive." Chen Bei gave a half-truthful answer.

"So you were just curious... Well, your curiosity will soon be satisfied. Our new leader is pushing something that, if successful, will bring a huge disaster to the world."

"What is it? Can I know?"

“Normally, you’re not qualified to participate, but I can arrange it for you. Because I have high hopes for you and am willing to create opportunities for you. Help the Re-creation Church do something, and if you succeed, I will grant your wish.”

"what's up?"

"It's just a small task. There's a local bibliophile who has a book called 'The Eye of the Abyss,' and our church is very interested in it. No matter what method you use, whether you steal it or rob it, bring that book back. That's the first thing you have to do when you join the church. I can assign you a few people to command."

"Okay, I should be able to do it."

Chen Bei had accepted a small task.

He only asked for two helpers, not really expecting them to help, but just to get some information out of them.

Those who helped him were all long-time members, who might know something.

-

The three set off together, all dressed casually, not wearing the standard robes of the Rebirth Church.

If I dressed like that, it would be inconvenient for me to move around.

Chen Bei tried to get information out of the two NPCs, but failed.

The two NPCs, one male and one female, were both sullen and taciturn, as if Chen Bei owed them a lot of money.

Even after several blows, not a single fart could be uttered.

Following the intelligence, the three arrived near the target's home.

The bibliophile was a local businessman.

After all, collecting such hobbies requires financial support. You can't collect those books without money.

After collection, regular maintenance is required to prevent moisture, insect infestation, and other damage.

Chen Bei first scouted the location to confirm the merchant's situation.

This bibliophile would run his business in the shop during the day and return home at dusk.

Chen Bei planned to visit late at night, as that would be more appropriate.

-

At night.

Chen Bei acted alone, without involving his two assistants, only having them keep watch outside.

He infiltrated the bibliophile's mansion alone, moving like a ghost through layers of obstacles until he reached the merchant's bedside.

The bibliophile slept with his wife. He was very thin, but his wife was quite plump. One of her thick legs was pressing down on him, making his breathing rhythm change.

Chen Bei released a Zhuangzi butterfly, immersing the book collector's wife in a dreamlike state, from which she wouldn't wake up even if thunder roared in her ears.

Chen Bei stretched out his Thousand Hands Cloak, pulled the bibliophile off the bed, and covered his mouth with his hand.

The bibliophile awoke with a start, his eyes wide, wanting to shout, but his mouth was covered, and he couldn't make a sound.

Chen Bei pressed the book collector down, making a shushing gesture, and then said, "Calm down. I'm here to talk to you. As long as you cooperate, no one will be hurt. Blink if you understand."

The bibliophile calmed down and blinked hard.

Chen Bei slowly loosened part of the Thousand Hands Cloak he was using to cover his mouth.

Now bibliophiles can speak.

"What do you want to do?" the bibliophile asked.

"I want a book called 'Eye of the Abyss'," Chen Bei said, revealing his intentions directly.
