Chapter 374: Chapter 374

Having been utterly exasperated by Gu Tong’s infuriating skills, Mo Zishuang was completely convinced.

She couldn’t help but recall Gu Qing’s assessment of Gu Tong back at the military academy: "I have a sister, the really mischievous kind! How mischievous? The kind you couldn’t even imagine!"

Back then, Mo Zishuang didn’t understand and thought Gu Qing was exaggerating. However, as it seems now, there wasn’t an ounce of exaggeration; in fact, it was an understatement.

Mo Zishuang rubbed her forehead, controlling her emotions, and said, "There are ten days left before the mission deployment; what are you thinking?"

"Thinking?" Gu Tong fired an Electromagnetic Wave, raising an eyebrow, and said, "A mission where I’m clueless about everything; what can I be thinking!"

This sentence of hers contained many other connotations, and in a way, she was indirectly asking Mo Zishuang about the mission’s content.

This was what she cared about the most!

Mo Zishuang pursed her lips, showing some hesitation in her expression. This mission was of great importance and shouldn’t be disclosed to Gu Tong at this time.

However, if Gu Tong agreed, she would be the mission’s primary executor, a frontline trainee who must understand the situation.

"Your participation still requires higher-level approval. I’ll send up your application dossier, and when it’s approved, I’ll tell you the plan... However, there’s one thing I can tell you in advance: this mission is undercover, and you need to pose as the target’s bodyguard!"

Mo Zishuang explained and still revealed some useful information.

"Bodyguard?" Gu Tong raised her eyebrows even higher, deepening her confusion, and said, "There should be many candidates for that!"

Previously, Mo Zishuang said the requirement was only for females with good artifact techniques, and that’s it.

In the Divine Artifact Third Class, there should be countless female trainees who meet these two criteria, even new trainee Yang Yun could accomplish it, so there’s no need for her to execute it.

Mo Zishuang understood what she meant, pursed her lips, and said, "The mission requires someone in their early twenties, young and beautiful, and of course, there’s one most important condition, which is the reason I chose you!"

"What reason?" Gu Tong was puzzled.

"An undercover mission requires an extremely keen reflex, the ability to see in all directions and hear everything. It’s best if one can deceive, captivate people’s minds, and dazzle others. I heard that when you executed the mine-clearing plan, your deceiving skills were top-notch, so that’s why I chose you!"

"???" Mo Zishuang explained seriously, but Gu Tong was full of question marks.

Is she sure this is a compliment???

Why does it sound so off???

"Is that supposed to be a compliment?" She didn’t feel praised at all...

"..." Kind of, what the heck...

Gu Tong blinked and looked at Mo Zishuang’s serious expression, not wanting to continue this topic. After thinking for a moment, she changed the subject and said, "I have conditions for participating in this mission, and I hope the organization can fulfill them! Otherwise, I absolutely won’t participate in the mission!"

When it came to this point, Mo Zishuang was slightly taken aback. She could actually guess that Gu Tong would have conditions, but she didn’t expect her to be so straightforward, saying, "Go ahead!"

Gu Tong was a rare talent and an indispensable central part of this mission. As long as she put forward conditions, Mo Zishuang would satisfy her to the fullest extent possible.

"If I take part in this mission, would Dad definitely agree, right?"

Gu Tong didn’t state her conditions but threw out a question first, but this question was crucial. This update is available on ⓝovelFire.net
