The sky is as white as snow, thousands of birds fly in competition, mountains rise one after another, the water is calm and still, the tranquil lake is like a mirror, reflecting the serene landscape. At the junction of mountains and water, a boy drives a horse-drawn carriage as if traveling on flat ground on the lake.

Suddenly, Tongzi's phone rang, and he picked it up and answered the call.

"……receive."

Tongzi hung up the phone and said to the people in the carriage, "Master Chen, the commander wants us to go back to headquarters first, take the contraband [Mi], and rush to Cangnan."

An aged voice came from inside the carriage: "Hmph, in the middle of the night, you're making this old man rush to Cangnan again, that eerie place..."

"Master, the commander said that the new agent of the god in Cangnan may have been mentally imprinted, and that there will be a man-made natural disaster in Cangnan in the next two days. He wants us to go and take a look. Shall we go?"

A moment later, the aged voice rang out again, "Hmph, go. Speaking of which, the ten-year period is almost up, Ye Fan is just worried..."

"Alright!" The boy flicked the reins. Don't let his young age fool you; he's a seasoned driver with years of experience, and navigating the water didn't hinder the carriage's smooth turn at all.

The skinny horse abruptly turned around, carrying the carriage across the mirror-like lake, creating ripples that gradually subsided as the carriage disappeared into the distance.

……

Jiang Shiyuan was unaware that a god-level teammate was about to arrive. She was standing upright on the training field, listening to Instructor Hong announce the transfer order.

"Zhang Xiaoxiao, transfer to the No. 112 Night Watch Team in Shancheng City!"

"Gu Ling, transfer to the No. 164 Night Watch Team in Bincheng City!"

"Moli, transfer to Gusu City Team 017!"

"Zheng Zhong, transferred to..."

"Deng Wei..."

"..."

The clouds hung low, and the sky gradually turned inky black. The dense clouds seemed to be shrouded by a huge curtain, and the air was filled with a damp smell. The oppressive and dull atmosphere made people feel a sense of tension for no reason.

Instructor Hong's booming voice echoed across the silent training ground.

"Bai Li Tu Ming, transferred to Team 010 in Guangshen City!"

"Cao Yuan, transferred to Huaihai City Team 007!"

"..." Jiang Shiyuan looked up at the dark sky, her heart clenching.

"Shen Qingzhu, transferred to Team 006 in Shangjing City!"

"Lin Qiye, transferred to Team 136 in Cangnan City!"

???

The previously quiet recruits suddenly erupted in excitement. Lin Qiye had won first place in the 'Carnival Day,' and considering his performance in the overall assessment, how could his ranking be so low!

There's definitely something fishy going on here!

"Report!" Shen Qingzhu was the first to speak up for Lin Qiye, "Lin Qiye is stronger than everyone in our training camp, and he's also a divine agent! Why should he only be allowed to stay in Cangnan!"

Raindrops fell one by one, the rain was not heavy, but the wind was strong. The big trees planted nearby swayed incessantly in the wind, as if a storm was about to descend upon the world.

Upon hearing Shen Qingzhu's words, Instructor Hong took a deep breath.

He didn't know why Lin Qiye was left in Cangnan either; he was also puzzled when he read this part, but...

"...We are soldiers! Soldiers must obey orders! The transfer list is not yet finished! Continue!"

"Jiang Zi, transfer to Night Watch Team No. 031 in Longcheng City!"

"..."

"Jiang Shiyuan is being transferred to Special Squad 003 [Phoenix] as a reserve member!"

The previously angry recruits immediately fell silent, and all eyes turned to Jiang Shiyuan.

Amidst the impending storm, Jiang Shiyuan, subjected to the scrutinizing gazes of the new recruits, frowned slightly. A special squad? This was completely unexpected. Why would they transfer her to the [Phoenix] squad as a reserve member? She knew that special squads wouldn't recruit members without special circumstances, such as casualties or injuries. Had something happened to someone in the [Phoenix] squad?

Shen Qingzhu fell silent. Why were the teams they were assigned to so different when they were both agents of the gods? But Jiang Shiyuan and Lin Qiye had such a good relationship; if he objected now, it would seem to put Jiang Shiyuan in an awkward position…

Lin Qiye didn't expect so many people to stand up for him. He looked at Jiang Shiyuan. Although Jiang Shiyuan went to the special team while he could only stay in Cangnan, he really didn't care. Being able to stay with his aunt and brother was the best thing for him.

All eyes were on Jiang Shiyuan, but Jiang Shiyuan looked back at Lin Qiye.

Lin Qiye was taken aback, somewhat unable to decipher the emotions in Jiang Shiyuan's eyes. He smiled slightly at Jiang Shiyuan, shook his head indifferently, indicating that he didn't care about the difference.

Jiang Shiyuan looked at Lin Qiye, who seemed to know nothing, and didn't know what to say.

Unlike everyone else present, she knew why Lin Qiye was left in Cangnan. It was precisely because she knew that every time Lin Qiye had to stay in Cangnan, her feelings were very complicated. She had only lived in Cangnan for two years and had already developed feelings for it. How could Lin Qiye, who had lived here for more than ten years, face the fact that Cangnan was disappearing?

If he could, Lin Qiye would rather be trapped in Cangnan, this cage, for the rest of his life than see it disappear...

Jiang Shiyuan looked at Lin Qiye for a while, gave him a thumbs-up, and mouthed, "Keep it up."

Lin Qiye's smile widened slightly as he nodded to Jiang Shiyuan.

Jiang Shiyuan turned back to continue listening to Instructor Hong, but her eyes were fixed on Yuan Gang standing behind the stage.

Yuan Gang was holding his phone, his mind not really on the new recruits. From the early hours of this morning until the end of tomorrow, he would be waiting for news from various departments until the natural disaster Jiang Shiyuan had mentioned arrived.

Instructor Hong finished reading the transfer orders from the list. The rain was intensifying. He put away the orders and prepared to dismiss the troops. "Everyone's transfer documents will be distributed shortly. Now..."

"and many more."

A message suddenly popped up on Yuan Gang's phone, interrupting Instructor Hong's voice.

He skimmed through the information, strode up to Instructor Hong, and shouted, almost roaring, "A large-scale mudslide is predicted to occur near Jinnan Mountain in one minute. At least eight villages around Jinnan Mountain are within the mudslide area. Rescue personnel near Jinnan Mountain have been dispatched to evacuate the people, but time is of the essence and we don't have enough manpower! Our training camp is the closest place to Jinnan Mountain!"

"Although you have finished your training, you are soldiers! Now! Immediately! Right now!"

"Everyone! Get on the bus and go to disaster relief!"

It's time to come.

Because Jiang Shiyuan couldn't remember where the disaster had occurred, she could only tell Yuan Gang that there was a natural disaster, but she didn't know the exact location. She only knew that it might be on a certain mountain. Therefore, Yuan Gang could only impose a city-wide curfew, disperse the personnel, and report any unusual activity immediately for timely support.

The city center is the most populous place. Even if Jiang Shiyuan said that the natural disaster might be in the mountains, the city center will still be allocated the most manpower, while the manpower will be less as you move to the edge of the city.

Jinan Mountain is on the edge of the city, and only a few people were assigned there, so there was no time to evacuate the population of the eight villages.

Staff stationed near Jinan Mountain noticed the ground shaking immediately and reported it. Unfortunately, it started raining, and after the first raindrop fell, a torrential downpour began in no time.

The sudden downpour caused traffic jams, and only the village closest to the outskirts of Jinnanshan was able to spare manpower to rush to the scene in time to provide assistance. They only had time to evacuate the people of two nearby villages before the earthquake and the mudslides caused by the downpour struck.

Casualties were unavoidable. At that moment, time was of the essence, so they had no choice but to urgently call for help and request backup!

Training camp.

A fierce wind howled, and torrential rain lashed the ground. It was as if the sky had been torn open, and the rain poured down like a waterfall bursting its banks.

Everyone got on the vehicles immediately. With such heavy rain, the affected villages were probably in danger. As the convoy drove out of the training camp, every new recruit felt a heavy weight in their heart.

Jiang Shiyuan sat at the back of the vehicle, put on the black raincoat handed to her by Lin Qiye, and listened to Instructor Hong's urgent explanation of the disaster situation and the division of the new recruits into six rescue teams.

Instructor Hong had more than 20 people in his vehicle. He divided them into three teams, each responsible for two villages, to cooperate with other teams in the rescue.

Team One was going to the farthest place with the most difficult terrain, Team Two was next, and Team Three was on the outermost edge of Jinan Mountain, where they received the least damage.

"Lin Qiye, you will be the captain of the first squad, and you and..."

Jiang Shiyuan listened quietly to Instructor Hong's instructions.

"Gu Ling, Jiang Zi, Wen Qingqing... go to number two."

“Jiang Shiyuan, you…”

"Instructor Hong, my Forbidden Void has healing abilities," Jiang Shiyuan said quietly before Instructor Hong announced that she was going to Squad Three.

"...Then you should go to Squad 1 too."

"Yes."
