I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God-Chapter 1366: Nobbo

It was not until Sister Han's figure disappeared that the leader dared to step forward obediently, rubbing his hands together to ask for instructions.

"Mr. Wu..."

"What we saw today has greatly shocked us. Only now do we understand a fraction of the truth, and we have no idea where to go from here. We hope that, considering we all come from the Xia Kingdom, you might show us some guidance and support. If there is anywhere we can be of service, we will not hesitate to lay down our lives for you!"

Hearing this, Wu Tao turned his head. After a brief thought, he spoke in a deep voice.

"That works out well. It saves me a lot of trouble."

"Do you know if there are any strange creatures appearing nearby? As the Demon Hunting Department, you shouldn't be unfamiliar with this kind of thing. If there are, take me there immediately."

As soon as he finished speaking, the old men hurried back to the helicopter, making non-stop calls on their satellite phones!

Under the immense pressure, the already highly efficient Demon Hunting Department poured out all its resources. Within a few minutes, they reported the specific location. Coordinates, pictures, and videos were all provided. They even sent over several wide-angle shots showing the monster's appearance.

It had to be said that although these people had limited abilities, they were indeed doing their utmost.

Wu Tao nodded with gratitude and took the various materials to look over them carefully.

"Thank you."

This simple phrase left the men feeling overwhelmed with awe and trepidation.

The leader looked excited and took the opportunity to smile and step closer to invite him.

"Mr. Wu."

"We have prepared everything, and reinforcements have already been arranged over there. There is also a lot of information currently being transmitted. Why don't you board the helicopter first? You can review the documents and listen to the reports while we head to the destination."

Wu Tao was well aware of this obvious gesture of goodwill. The other party just wanted to earn a favor, which was a shrewdness common to human nature.

In the past, he wouldn't have had the time to bother with such worldly social interactions.

However, since this person was helping him so diligently and there was still a lot of information to be delivered, catching a ride on their helicopter wouldn't hurt. Knowing oneself and the enemy was the correct and steady approach.

Besides, it is hard to reject someone extending such a friendly hand. Since they were helping so sincerely and all their preparations were useful, Wu Tao had no reason to refuse. He nodded his thanks and boarded the helicopter to leave.

Along the way, Wu Tao reviewed the various materials and became generally familiar with the creature he was about to face, forming a plan in his mind.

Soon, the helicopter landed by a lake in the north.

The old men excitedly thanked him, making it unclear who had actually helped whom.

"Thank you, Mr. Wu! Thank you, Mr. Wu!"

"The personnel from the branch office will be here shortly. If you have any orders, please don't hesitate to ask, Mr. Wu. Since you have important matters to attend to, we won't disturb you any longer. If there is anywhere we can be of service in the future, just say the word at any time!"

"Take care, Mr. Wu!"

After a few hurried words, the old men excitedly said their goodbyes and left, all looking as happy as if they had won the lottery.

As the helicopter ascended, the old men still waved respectfully through the windows like children, leaving Wu Tao somewhat caught between laughter and tears. He could only keep their helpfulness in mind, silently noting that they were good people.

Just as he was preparing to make his move, an off-road vehicle sped over from not far away.

Dust billowed into the air as the car raced like a wild horse!

The vehicle sprinted close and braked sharply. Several people efficiently opened the doors and stepped out. Seeing Xu Rong and the others emerge, Wu Tao was quite surprised.

"Why are you here?"

It should be known that this place was several hundred kilometers away from Pingjiang. To see these people here in such a short time was truly unexpected.

Who would have thought.

As soon as Wu Tao's words fell, aside from Xu Rong who excitedly stepped forward, her companions Li Weiwei and the others were even more surprised.

"Eh?!"

"Why are you here too?!"

"We received emergency orders to rush here and complete a secret mission. Why would you be here?!"

Hearing the young girl's question, Wu Tao finally realized.

Ah, so that was it.

The reinforcements arranged by those old men were these acquaintances. This arrangement was indeed thoughtful; the personnel chosen were all people he had met before. It must have been the result of careful selection by those old men.

Faced with such considerate preparation, Wu Tao didn't say much more.

He just replied casually.

"I have a mission too."

Xu Rong was relatively more familiar with him and obviously knew a bit of the inside story. She quickly stepped forward and greeted him softly.

"Mr. Wu."

"If there is anything we can help you with, we will definitely prepare it with all our might."

Wu Tao glanced at the vast lake. Although the scenery was quite impressive, there didn't seem to be any movement, nor did it look like there were any spiritual monsters around. He asked aloud.

"Do you have a speedboat?"

Xu Rong immediately responded, walking toward the woods hidden by the side of the lake.

"Yes!"

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Wu. A speedboat will be in the water within five minutes!"

Saying that, she signaled to her team members with a dignified look in her eyes, leading the crowd toward the Demon Hunting Department's detection base hidden in the forest. The team members didn't understand what was going on, but they could only obey orders and follow along.

Not long after.

An amphibious small boat sailed into the lake.

Wu Tao nodded in satisfaction and boarded the boat. He sat steadily and gave a look of instruction. Xu Rong immediately led the others to follow, starting the speedboat and cruising back and forth across the lake's surface.

Water splashed everywhere as the small boat raced across the emerald green lake, appearing as carefree and relaxed as tourists.

After sitting on the small boat for a while.

Li Weiwei and the team members all wore expressions of confusion. They cast a few glances at the unfamiliar Wu Tao and began to converse in hushed tones.

"Who is this guy? What's his background?"

"His name is Wu Tao. We ran into him a few times in the city before. He doesn't have much of a background."

"Ah? Then why is the captain being so polite to him?"

"How should I know? I've known the captain for several years, and I've never seen her have such a good relationship with any man, let alone be this polite."

"This is really strange..."

"Aren't we here to execute a secret mission? Why are we sightseeing and playing on the water here?"

"Who knows."

"Cut the chatter. Our bounden duty is to obey!"

The voices on the boat were not loud, and as the small boat moved, they were immediately drowned out by the sound of splashing water. However, they could not escape Wu Tao's perception.

But he simply had no time to pay attention to these bystanders, nor could he be bothered to lower himself to their level.

Seeing that the small boat was about to enter the center of the lake, Wu Tao finally took out a jade pendant, tied it to a fishing line, and began holding the rod to fish, looking completely leisurely.

Seeing this, the men and women behind him frowned in even greater suspicion, a hint of dissatisfaction already appearing in their eyes.

Xu Rong, however, was very sensible and obedient. With great perceptiveness, she slowed down the speed of the small boat. No matter what Wu Tao did, it seemed perfectly natural in her eyes, and she would absolutely have no objections.

Faced with this tacit cooperation, the team members grew increasingly suspicious.

The way they looked at the two of them also became somewhat strange.

After stealing glances for a few breaths, the group felt as if they had been force-fed a mouthful of dog food. With faces full of resentful helplessness, they quietly asked Xu Rong what exactly the mission was, but Xu Rong remained silent.

Helpless.

The group had no choice but to ask for permission to temporarily leave and return to the base to see if there was anything to do, so as to avoid truly becoming third wheels.

Who would have known.

To prevent them from disturbing Mr. Wu, Xu Rong agreed on the spot.

At this moment.

In the hearts of the uninformed crowd, the feeling of being forced to eat dog food was immediately confirmed. However, with a secret mission at hand, even if they had feelings of frustration, they didn't dare to act out. The male team members' eyes flashed green with envy, but they could only follow Li Weiwei and leave with utter resentment.

Even if it meant swimming, they didn't want to be third wheels any longer!

Seeing that there was no one else on the small boat, it finally became much quieter.

Wu Tao's expression grew ever more serene as he intently watched the fishing line for the slightest movement. The jade pendant tied to the line contained spiritual energy. Such an item was a rare treasure on the barren Blue Star, possessing an irresistible allure to all manner of spirits and monsters.

As long as he waited patiently, he was bound to make a successful catch.

Unfortunately.

Despite the pleasant scenery of the lake and mountains, his long wait yielded nothing.

Even with his boundless patience and an incomparably steady state of mind, Wu Tao could not hold out against an empty stomach. Left with no other choice, he turned to look at Xu Rong, who was waiting by his side.

"Do you have anything to eat?"
