Rise of the Otherworld.

Zhang Hao, Li Yue and the others disguised themselves and blended in with the crowd of people who were recruiting experts for the mysterious organization. They wore tattered clothes, their faces were covered with dust, and they tried their best to make themselves look no different from those around them who were eager to join the mysterious organization.

The recruitment site was bustling with activity and a cacophony of activity. People jostled, jostling for position, each trying to squeeze in for a chance to be selected. Zhang Hao carefully observed his surroundings, his gaze darting through the crowd, picking up every suspicious figure and subtle movement. He was secretly on guard, every nerve tense like a drawn bowstring.

Li Yue calmly communicated with the person next to her, trying to get more useful information. With a flattering smile on her face, she spoke softly, "Brother, what do you think of this mysterious organization?"

"I heard that those who are selected this time will receive a generous reward." A burly man said loudly, his face full of anticipation and greed.

Li Yue smiled slightly and continued, "You have to be alive to get it." A barely perceptible worry flashed in her eyes.

Finally, it was their turn to take the test. The examiner from the mysterious organization had a sharp gaze, scrutinizing each person like a hawk. That gaze seemed to penetrate the soul, leaving no place for them to hide.

Zhang Hao feigned composure, took a deep breath, and stepped forward. He displayed his superb martial arts skills, his sword dancing like the wind, his body nimble and powerful. Every movement was clean and sharp, full of power and skill. Sweat streamed from his forehead, but he didn't bother to wipe it, completely focused on demonstrating his strength.

Li Yue skillfully cast a spell, the light in her hands shimmering and transforming into various wondrous forms. Her spells were exquisite and unique, attracting the examiner's attention. The examiner narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a hint of satisfaction.

After a series of tests, they successfully infiltrated the mysterious organization with their outstanding performance. However, the situation inside was more complicated than they imagined.

The mysterious organization's interior is a patchwork of buildings, crisscrossed by a maze of passageways. Patrolling guards roam everywhere, clad in uniform black armor, wielding sharp weapons and scanning the surroundings with vigilant eyes. The slightest inattention can lead to discovery, and every step feels like walking on the edge of a knife.

"Be careful, don't show any flaws," Zhang Hao reminded Li Yue softly, his voice so low that only the two of them could hear it.

They explored the organization cautiously, their steps light, trying not to make any noise. Every time they turned a corner or met a group of people, their hearts jumped into their throats.

At this time, a guard came over and asked, "What are you doing here?" The guard's voice was stern and full of suspicion, and his hand was already grasping the hilt of the sword at his waist.

Zhang Hao's heart tightened, his mind raced, and he instantly made up an excuse: "We were ordered to patrol." He tried to keep his voice steady so that the other party would not notice any panic.

The guard looked at them suspiciously, his eyes gazing at them from head to toe. "Well, go quickly and come back soon," he said, and then he turned and left.

They breathed a sigh of relief, their backs already drenched in cold sweat, but they dared not stop for even a moment and continued on their way.

Finally, they discovered a heavily guarded area. It was surrounded by tall walls, with several powerful guards standing at the entrance. Various formations and traps were also set up around it, making it daunting to approach.

Zhang Hao and Li Yue hid in the dark and observed everything.

"I think this is most likely where magic weapons are refined." Li Yue said in a low voice.

"But how do I get in?" Zhang Hao frowned and fell into deep thought.

Just as they were racking their brains for a solution, they suddenly heard footsteps.

"Oh no, someone is coming. Let's hide first." Zhang Hao pulled Li Yue and quickly hid in a corner.

Their hearts were in suspense again, not knowing what danger they would face next.
