"Wait!" Xiao Ming stared at the mercenary who was holding back the spotted fruit, his brows furrowed.

"What, Captain Xiao, do you want to try it too?" the mercenary said with a smile.

"Have you seen the spotted black-winged bee?" Xiao Ming asked.

The mercenary shook his head and said with great certainty, "No, if there is such a thing, we should have set up camp in another place now." I've taken a closer look, and there's no black-winged bee around at all!"

Xiao Ming narrowed his eyes: "That's not right." Where there are spotted bees, there will definitely be the storage of spotted black-winged bees. If there's only one of them, it's definitely not naturally grown!"

Yan Xinjie also reacted now, and said in a deep voice: "You really searched it completely? This can't be wrong!"

The mercenary also sensed that something was wrong at this time, and tried to recall it, and finally shook his head: "Deputy regiment, I really didn't find it." Maas was with me too, and he didn't find out either!"

The other mercenary beside the mercenary nodded: "Yes, regimental deputy, we didn't find the spotted black-winged bee!"

The mercenaries who can be brought here by Yan Xinjie are definitely elite members, so it is unlikely that they will make mistakes, let alone two people who will make mistakes together.

The spotted black-winged bee is a rather troublesome insect star beast, the same as the blue polar snake, it is the type that wins by numbers, and because of the fast flight speed, it is definitely more difficult to deal with than the blue polar snake, fortunately, the spotted black-winged bee is not the kind of star beast with a violent temper, as long as humans don't provoke them, they won't take the initiative to attack humans.

And the spotted black-winged bee and the spotted sage are associated in nature. As long as there is a naturally growing spotted tree. Then the old nest of the spotted black-winged bee will definitely be found within 300 meters. This was proven thousands of years ago. There's no room for error. If only the spotted black-winged wasp is found, or if it is a spotted scarf, then it must have been artificially cultivated.

The spotted black-winged bee is good to say, the spotted fruit is a very special seed, although the spotted fruit is called a fruit, but it is not a fruit, it is impossible to use the spotted fruit to spread the seeds, its seeds are those that will become highly poisonous sap when it encounters blood. Therefore, if this thing is not carefully cultivated with special equipment, it is impossible to transplant it.

And now the two mercenaries have found a non-black-winged bee companion spotted shy, which means that this thing has been cultivated artificially. On the other hand, there must be someone living in seclusion here, otherwise who would have the nerve to transplant the spotted flower to this place?

"It seems that things are more complicated than we thought!Deputy Head Yan, should you tell us something?" Tifa looked at Yan Xinjie.

Although the mission of Zhubu Island is a double-A-level mission, it is foggy on the surface, and it stands to reason that it should not attract seven mercenary groups to come here to complete the mission together, and it is a general open mission, unless there is a special reason. Otherwise, once a mercenary group sees that someone else has taken this task, then they will not take it again. Or maybe it's a stagger period of time. Especially with this kind of search task, who knows what the end result will be?

But this time, in addition to Team Zero and the Black Angel, the other five also came, and for an island of five hundred square kilometers, seven mercenary groups were actually too much.

And from the beginning, Nangong Lie and the others did not have the right attitude. They were too tolerant of the Dongyang Mercenary Group. Or, the Dongyang mercenary group is too arrogant, they are mainly Dahe people, and they can still appear in front of the other six families so openly and brightly, this is absolutely abnormal, even if there is the face of the Ferier family there, in such a jungle environment, the other families have killed them, can the Ferier family still destroy the other families together?

Therefore, it can be deduced that there must be a hidden reason for the other five mercenary groups to be so interested in this mission.

Emerging mercenary groups such as Team Zero and Black Angel, no matter how strong they are, have some flaws, among which the news that will only circulate in the mercenary world is something that they "newcomers" can't know, even if Sun Dong helps them, it's useless, because some news will only spread among the mercenaries. And Sun Dong did not hold the mercenary group in his hands.

Yan Xinjie looked at Xiao Ming and Tifa, and finally smiled dumbly: "I really admire you guys." Is it possible to conclude from just one dark spotted, or did you suspect it in the first place?"

"Both!" Tifa shrugged.

Yan Xinjie waved her hand to let her subordinates leave: "We need a separate space!"

Xiao Ming took out the photon isolator from the space bracelet and opened it to form a separate isolation space.

"Let me start by introducing myself. My name is Yan Xinjie, the third deputy head of the Sword Mercenary Regiment, Miss Ye Lan asked me to say hello to you on her behalf!" Yan Xinjie stretched out her hand with a smile.

Xiao Ming and Tifa didn't look shocked, but showed an expression of "sure enough", and followed Xiao Ming to stretch out his hand and shake Yan Xinjie gently: "Hello!"

Yan Xinjie smiled bitterly: "It seems that you have already guessed." Isn't it obvious that I'm looking like this?"

"I am very sensitive to other people's mental power, as soon as you see us, you show a high level of attention, and then in your actions, although you focus on us, you do not show any 'evil', the most important thing is that when dealing with the Blue Pole Snake, you are shocked by our combat power on the surface, but in fact, your mental power is very calm, which means that you have long known our situation. And those who know our situation, there should only be three families in Draco, the Xiao family, the Situ family, and the association. ”

Yan Xinjie smiled dumbly: "Yes." You naturally know the people of the Xiao family, and if you form an association, it is impossible to have no ill will towards you, so only our Situ family will be left! Miss Ye Lan said that you are very powerful, I only thought she was talking about your combat effectiveness at first, but now it seems that you are also very powerful in other aspects!"

"Thanks for the compliments. We just have some special abilities that others don't have. In addition, we know a lot of things, so we can infer it in reverse!" Tifa said modestly.

"So, let's get to the point!" The smile on Yan Xinjie's face closed: "I wonder if the two of you know Master Fan Biteng?"

Tifa nodded, "Do you mean the legendary master of the strongest spirit weapon?"

Yan Xinjie nodded and said: "Yes, Master Fan Biteng's existence has always been a mystery, since five hundred years before the appearance of the spirit weapon, his name has appeared in front of the eyes of the world, but until a hundred years ago, his name was still recited. Especially a hundred years ago, the last K-class legendary powerhouse personally proved that his spiritual weapon was created by Master Fan Bitten. What does this mean? It means that Master Van Bitten lived for at least 400 years. ”

You must know that after the era of intensification, the average life expectancy of human beings is only one hundred and fifty years. Even if he is the strongest of the superpowers, his lifespan is only more than two hundred years old. The legendary K-level powerhouse has only one time, and the queen's lifespan is more than three hundred years, and the others are only more than two hundred years.

And Xiao Ming also knows that the situation of the Queen of Time may not be her long life at all, but for other reasons.

So an old guy who has lived for four hundred years will definitely arouse the interest of many people.

"Just a year ago, there were rumors that Master Van Biten's retreat was in Draco. After a year of sifting through various news, the final suspected location is Zhubu Island. Yan Xinjie's eyes bloomed with a strange light.

"So you're actually here to find longevity...... Well, the secret of immortality?" Tifa looked at Yan Xinjie strangely.

Immortality is a yearning that has been a human being since the beginning, and no one will feel that they have lived too long. But with the development of science and technology, all human beings actually understand a truth, that is, one person's immortality is a pain, but everyone's immortality is a disaster.

In addition, immortality does not mean immortality, once a person has mastered the method of immortality, then he can either live a life of seclusion, or he will announce this method to the world. Otherwise, wait for the whole world to hunt you down.

This is a matter of human nature, and it is impossible to avoid it.

Therefore, really rational people know that the pursuit of immortality is actually a rather painful thing.

"No, we're not here to find a way to live forever. A real big family should understand that the longevity of a family needs inheritance, not the immortality of a certain person. An immortal leader is actually a disaster for a family!" Yan Xinjie shook her head and said.

Indeed, if the head of a family is an immortal monster, then the family will not become strong, but will be ruined by civil strife. Because the people below have no hope of becoming the head of the family at all, if there is no hope, they will either have undeserved desires/hopes, or they will be decadent and stop fighting. In either case, it is the enemy of a family.

"Actually, we are here to find Master Van Bitten himself. If he's still alive!" Yan Xinjie said.

Xiao Ming and Tifa were stunned for a moment, and then understood what the other party meant.

"I see, what you are looking for is not immortality, but the method of manufacturing top-level spiritual martial arts. Whether it is the living Master Fan Biteng or some records left by the dead master, as long as you get a little bit, then you will definitely make long-term progress in the direction of Lingwu manufacturing......! What Lingwu needs is a soul crystal, which is stuck, so ...... Could it be that Master Fan Biteng has a way to create a top-level spirit martial without using soul crystals?" Tifa looked at Yan Xinjie in shock. (To be continued......)
