"You two, there are so many people here, can we be a bit more restrained?" Seeing Murong's fists and feet about to touch Ye Guichen, Duan Nanye quickly stood up, looking helpless.

He suddenly felt bringing Murong along was a mistake.

Originally, he hoped Ye Guichen could lead the team to a good result, but Murong acted like a living ancestor.

Moreover, Ye Guichen, who was usually so composed, kept bickering with Murong. Why was that?

This gave Duan Nanye a headache.

He secretly prayed nothing would go wrong.

If something truly happened to Miss Murong, they would all be implicated, even Boss Mo wouldn't escape blame.

Duan Nanye even wondered how Boss Mo could trust Ye Guichen to lead this team without any supervision.

Seemingly noticing the strange atmosphere, Murong glared at Ye Guichen with resentment before walking over to Wang Ying and linking arms with her, muttering something under her breath.

Hiding behind, Zuo Zongsheng saw everything clearly, especially when Su Mu's haughty behavior towards Ye Guichen earlier, he felt he saw an opportunity, a smile tugging at his lips.

Although he seldom talked, even preferring others to see him as transparent, he had a fair understanding of his teammates for this event along the way.

Even if he didn't know Murong's specific identity, Zuo Zongsheng had some vague guesses.

Unconsciously, Zuo Zongsheng felt this event was not just his chance, but a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for his future.

Eight organizations.

Each organization sent over ten people.

Soon, someone stepped forward to announce the content of this event.

After hearing, everyone couldn't help but gasp in surprise.

No wonder they brought them to the seaside.

Apparently, there was a Nameless Island three thousand miles away where a group had built a sea fortress, claiming it to be Atlantis.

All these years, Hua Country's Army had been searching for Atlantis, only recently discovering its exact location.

But knowing the location wasn't enough; many experts from the army had tried to enter and gather information, yet none had returned.

Still, the army had gained some understanding about Atlantis.

Before long, everyone received documents detailing Atlantis.

Of course, the details came from investigation results; how much they aligned with the actual situation of Atlantis, no one knew.

Ye Guichen looked at the documents in hand, frowning.

According to the info, Atlantis had nearly a hundred people, functioning as a massive genetic laboratory, with most people being mutants. Its isolated location made sanctions difficult.

Besides, Atlantis was also colluding with pirates, frequently raiding ships and abducting people as experiments.

Atlantis' leader called himself Caesar, and every person on Atlantis referred to themselves as Angels.

The mission of this event was to destroy Atlantis, with the team eliminating Caesar being the champion.

Furthermore, teams killing more Atlantis Angels would also be ranked accordingly.

"How vile, these are simply demons!" Many were enraged after reading.

Using living people for experiments.

An outrage.

"Everyone, whether it's Caesar or the Angels, they're mutants whose methods can't be measured by normal skills. So, this mission is extremely arduous. If anyone wishes to forfeit, please decide quickly."

The speaker was a middle-aged man.

He wore Chinese tunic and seemed devoid of any visible skills, standing among the eight organizations. Though he used no amplification, his voice echoed clearly in everyone's ears.

"Forfeit?"

"Impossible!"

"No matter what mutation it is, encountering us is their end!"

"Right, tell us how to get to Atlantis!"

The speaker glanced around: "This event lasts seven days. Using helicopters risks detection by Atlantis, so the mission starts now. Locating the island and subduing the Angels is part of your task, and how to reach there depends on your abilities."

"Also, whether successful or not, you must return in seven days."

After speaking, the speaker left without further words.

The organizations looked at each other.

Going on their own?

Not using helicopters.

Traveling several thousand kilometers by ship alone would take days. Even if they found the island, how could they quickly defeat the mutants?

The crowd was in uproar.

Duan Nanye and Wang Chaoyang also frowned.

Though expecting this event to be different and tougher, this was beyond expectation.

"Captain Ye, the rest is up to you. Since the event has started, we must leave. We can't offer any help, sorry!" Duan Nanye and Wang Chaoyang gave Ye Guichen an apologetic smile and quickly left.

The other organizations did similarly.

Within minutes, only the participants remained.

"Captain, what do we do next?" Jiang Long couldn't help asking Ye Guichen.

At a loss.

No one expected the event to start so soon.

If not knowing such things were too serious to joke about, they might have thought this event a game.

Ye Guichen became serious, glancing around and seeing other organizations dispersing to find boats.

With thousands of kilometers to traverse, they needed boats to reach Atlantis Island in time.

Moreover, being at sea came with unpredictable risks; encountering tsunamis or sea beasts could mean death before reaching the destination.

Without boats, even strong warriors might end up as fish food.

"Let's find a boat." Ye Guichen forced a smile, initially thinking his martial prowess would easily secure a top-three spot. But now realizing strength wasn't enough.

This event measured comprehensive abilities.

"Should we team up?"

As Ye Guichen prepared to search for boats, a voice arose.

Ye Guichen turned to see ten approaching people.

The leading person, burly and wearing a vest, held a palm-sized turtle shell like a compass.

He carried a heavy sword about ten centimeters wide, his gaze fixed on Murong while speaking.

Murong felt his gaze, frowning: "Lu Bu, we're fine on our own. We don't need anyone else."

She stepped forward, pulling Ye Guichen, signaling him not to team up.

Clearly, Murong disliked Lu Bu even more than Ye Guichen.
