Chapter 263: Chapter 199: Night’s Watch Headquarters, Lu Mengmeng

Over the weekend, Zheng Cheng, Yao Zhixue, and Rookie made a joint trip to the Watchman Headquarters in Beijing.

Their companion was Zhao Wufeng.

Apart from being a member of Beijing’s Zhao family, he was also a member of the Human Tier within the Watchmen.

“You three really are challenging invites. Other Watchmen newcomers already headed to Beijing and registered straight away. You guys, however, took a good ten days!”

Zhao Wufeng, while walking, couldn’t help expressing his impatience, as if he wanted to drag them over immediately.

Zheng Cheng asked, “Oh, were there many newcomers joining the Watchmen this year?”

Zhao Wufeng shook his head and said sarcastically, “Do you think Watchmen newcomers are as common as cabbages? We hardly have more than a dozen new members joining us in Beijing each year.”

“Not to mention those like yourselves, reassigned from other provinces, the total would not exceed thirty!”

Suddenly, Rookie asked, “Hey, weren’t there over twenty S-level newcomers in our school? Do we have any counterparts?”

“Yes.”

Zhao Wufeng briefly replied, “Apart from myself, Zheng Cheng, and Yao Zhixue, there are two others.”

“Who?”

“One is Zhou Xinyu. He had some family affairs today and could not come.”

“And the other is Fang Yuan. He is an eight-star assassin.”

“Assassin?”

A flicker crossed their eyes as they didn’t expect to encounter an assassin!

Rookie said, “I know him. His information is included among the S-level newcomers, but his specific profession was not mentioned.”

“Of course it wasn’t.”

Zhao Wufeng said, “Assassins are renowned for being secretive. If everyone knew about his profession, how could he still be an assassin?”

“True.”

Zheng Cheng asked, “By the way, I heard that the Watchmen in Beijing recently recruited a Priest Professionist with a special ability. Do you know her?”

“Priest Professionist with a special ability?”

Zhao Wufeng thought for a moment, “I seem to have heard about it. However, she is not in the same group as me, and she’s a second-year student at the Beijing National University. I don’t know her personally.”

“I believe her name is… Lu Mengmeng, right? She’s a really beautiful senior… you wouldn’t happen to have a thing for her, would you?”

Immediately, Zheng Cheng felt Yao Zhixue’s icy glare and hastily said, “Our encounter was merely a fleeting one. I’m just curious about her abilities.”

“Is that so…” Zhao Wufeng shrugged, “She should be here today, you can look for her.”

“Hmm.” Zheng Cheng nodded, “By the way, is there a night market in the Watchmen Headquarters?”

“A night market?” Zhao Wufeng blinked, “You mean the Phantom Market, a private gathering for exchanging information between Watchmen and patrons, right? Of course, there is, it’s tonight.”

“Are you going?”

“Yes.”

“Great, I’ll take you there.” Zhao Wufeng magnanimously said, “We are here.”

Looking ahead, a colossal building, over fifty stories high, appeared in their sight.

Looking up, the glass surface of the building was gleaming so brightly that it was difficult to open their eyes.

Rookie was astonished, “Holy… why is the Watchmen Headquarters in Beijing so huge?”

Zhao Wufeng was very pleased. He enjoyed seeing the awe of outsiders when they first saw the headquarters.”

“Of course. The Watchmen are the most crucial defenders of our country. There are over three thousand members stationed here permanently, not to mention those who are always on missions.”

“On top of us Professionists, they’ve also hired over ten thousand ordinary people to cater to our needs.”

“After all, for some regular tasks such as logistics or passing information, it would not be feasible to have Watchmen handling them.”

Under the lead of Zhao Wufeng, they quickly entered the Watchmen Headquarters.

“Welcome~”

Two rows of young girls wearing classical cheongsams greeted them warmly. Their smiles and gaze were flawless.

The lobby was not too crowded, with people leisurely sipping coffee and reading newspapers in a large coffee shop on the side.

Zheng Cheng wondered, “Is this the Watchmen Headquarters?”

Rookie said, “It feels more like a big corporation to me.”

Zhao Wufeng let out a low laugh, “It absolutely is.”

“Of course, this is just the surface. The actual Watchmen base is above the thirtieth floor!”

“Whether it is about the fallen ones, different races, rebellion of professionists, or national missions, all are carried out by the Watchmen’s official base.”

As they rode up the glass elevator, it traveled up incredibly fast.

Zheng Cheng noticed that this elevator only went to the thirtieth floor.

Above the thirtieth floor, they had to switch to a different elevator.

Through the glass, the entire city of Beijing quickly unfolded before Zheng Cheng’s eyes.

Vast, infinite.

Everything within sight was the city.

Countless people densely crowded, appearing almost like ants clumped together.

With a trembling voice, Rookie said, “Damn! Brother Cheng, I have a fear of heights… my legs are giving way.”

“Ding~!”

As soon as the elevator arrived, Rookie darted out.

It was then that Zheng Cheng noticed that the thirtieth floor was a huge hall, bustling with people.

There were over thirty elevators operating around them, constantly shuttling people up and down.

These people, they were all professionists!

Zhao Wufeng continued, “Let’s go, I’ll take you to the Personnel Department to report.”

A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses greeted them at the Personnel Department.

“Wufeng! What brings you here?”

The middle-aged man clearly knew Zhao Wufeng and asked warmly.

Zhao Wufeng whispered, “He’s my cousin, an ordinary person.”

Zheng Cheng silently nodded. Not everyone in a Professionist’s family was a Professionist. The number of ordinary family members was astronomical.

Zhao Wufeng replied with a smile, “Uncle Kun, I’m here to register my classmates. They’re all new Professionists relocated here from other provinces.”

Zhao Kun replied warmly, “Since they’re brought here by Wufeng, they’re all family.”

He took out a scanner and asked, “Did you all bring your transfer orders and identity tokens? I’ll enter your information right away.”

“We did.”

The trio took out their transfer orders and identity tokens and began inputting information into the computer.

Zhao Wufeng asked, “By the way, Zheng Cheng, which department do you want to go to?”

“Huh? Is there a difference?”

“Under normal circumstances, new Professionists will follow the Yellow Tier members to perform tasks for a while. Of course, as students, the frequency and the time dedicated to tasks would be adjusted according to our schedules.”

Zhao Wufeng explained, “There are many departments in the Watchmen Headquarters: the Action department, Logistics department, Information department, and the least populated, yet most rewarding Special Profession Department.”

“Like me, I am a member of the Action Department. In just over a month, I’ve accumulated more than two thousand merit points! Within the year, I can accumulate ten thousand merit points and advance to the Yellow Tier…”

“Huh?”

Zhao Kun, who was entering information into the system, suddenly halted, fixating on the computer screen.

Zhao Wufeng curiously asked, “What’s wrong, Uncle Kun?”

Zhao Kun looked both puzzled and incredulous, “Wufeng, your friend named Zheng Cheng…he already has over five thousand merit points!”

“And his department is already pre-assigned, it’s the Special Profession Department.”

“What?”
