Card Master: My Special Feature - Choose One of Three

Bai Miao changed into the special operations team uniform that Pan Lingzhen had brought him: a black trench coat, a white shirt, straight-leg trousers, and combat boots.

Bai Miao, whom Mei Ruofang had just led into the patrol station, still had a somewhat student-like air about him.

His demeanor is completely different now.

Efficient and stern.

Armed military personnel assembled in the patrol station square and boarded armored vehicles in an orderly manner.

The seasoned soldiers were calm and serious, while the young recruits were nervous and hesitant, following behind the veterans, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

After reporting the whole story, Bai Congming took charge of coordinating and deploying the troops.

The orders were relayed to all parts of the unit, and each squad obeyed the instructions in an orderly manner.

His disheveled hair, the wounds on his cheeks, and the large patches of dirt on his tattered uniform could not conceal his extraordinary aura, which was like a sharp blade being drawn from its sheath.

Bai Miao felt that Bai Congming was a stranger to him, this young lieutenant who was rumored to be quite famous in the army.

In Bai Miao's memory, Bai Congming was the one with many mischievous ideas, who led him into all sorts of trouble.

He mysteriously promised to help Bai Miao "become an adult," but then his cousin got a good beating from his aunt.

I never expected that when he gets serious, he'd actually be quite presentable.

Bai Congming also noticed Bai Miao in his uniform, and his eyes lit up. "This kid has grown up too."

He never imagined that Bai Miao would one day wear a Secret Service uniform.

In his memory, Bai Miao's laid-back personality, which preferred lying down to sitting, showed no signs whatsoever of becoming a member of the Secret Service's field operations unit.

The two cousins ​​nodded to each other across the crowd, and Bai Miao silently assured Bai Congming:

"I will definitely bring my uncle back."

"Bai Miao, here!"

Yan Li rolled down the car window and waved to Bai Miao.

Team Six's car was in front, and Team Five's car was behind.

Shi Shanjun's arm was on the steering wheel, and the powerful sound waves vibrated inside the car.

After Bai Miao got into the car, Pan Lingzhen turned off the music, her expression extremely serious reflected in her glasses.

"Since you're not in the station, I'll just highlight the key points about this mission for you."

"Bai Xianjun, who was tricked into the spiritual realm this time, is a third-level card master of the military. Five military personnel were also trapped with him."

"His son, Bai Congming, was rescued by you. According to the information he reported, this sacred place is deliberately maintained by the Lionheart Society."

Most of the original demonic beasts in the Spirit Realm have been wiped out, and the remaining demonic beasts are no longer a threat. The concentration of spiritual energy is expected to return to normal within six months.

The Lionheart Society members found this spiritual realm and captured and released external monsters into it to stabilize the concentration of spiritual energy and thus maintain the realm.

The station chief of the East City Patrol Station, Ma Liqun, has been confirmed to be a member of the Lionheart Society and is concealing the fact that the spirit realm has not dissipated.

The Lionheart Society has always used this sacred place as its organizational base.

"Their operation was meticulously planned. First, they attracted the White Army commander by feigning unusual activity at the East City Patrol Station, and then, under the guise of patrolling, they lured the patrol team into a spiritual realm."

"What is their purpose in doing this? Is there a grudge between Commander Bai Xianjun and Lionheart?"

Bai Miao couldn't understand why the Lionheart Society would go to such lengths to lure and capture a military personnel.

"Because the card [Healing Creature] that Bai Xianjun summoned grants him powerful vitality and recovery ability."

Only a body this powerful could meet the standards of their current experiments.

Bai Miao was shocked. His uncle, Bai Xianjun, was already a top-tier combatant in Yujiang City as a third-tier card master.

These Lionheart Society members are utterly lawless; they even dare to covet third-tier card masters.

"What exactly is supporting the Lionheart Society's operations? Bai Xianjun is a military commander."

Reaching out on him was not something a cowardly Lionheart member would do.

"The military has begun investigating this matter."

Pan Lingzhen hadn't expected Bai Miao to be so perceptive, quickly deducing from her brief narration that there was someone behind the Lionheart Society.

"Our mission is to enter the Spirit Realm and cooperate with Bai Xianjun to annihilate all Lionheart Society members, leaving none alive."

"Not a single one left?" Bai Miao asked again to confirm.

Pan Lingzhen assumed he had never killed anyone and affirmed, "Yes, not a single one was spared."

"They dared to attack Bai Xianjun, so they must have third-tier combat power."

Our team's main combat strength in this battle is our captain, who has level 28 psionic power and can briefly reach level 3 combat power under burst conditions.

"You, Yan Li, and I—the three of us are mainly responsible for providing support and interception."

When Shi Shanjun's name was mentioned, he didn't grin and take on the responsibility as usual.

He simply gave a faint "hmm".

Yan Li tugged at Bai Miao's sleeve, signaling him not to delve into it, and whispered:

"When Brother Jun started training me this morning, he wasn't like this. But as soon as the mission information came, Brother Jun was like a completely different person."

"If you want to chat, you can chat all you want after the mission is over. Now we're entering the Spirit Realm, so all of you need to focus!"

Shi Shanjun is usually easy to get along with like an older brother, but when he gets serious, his imposing presence as one of the eight team leaders of the field operations department is enough to make Yan Li shut up.

The armored vehicle traversed the spirit realm barrier as if it had instantly plunged into the deep sea.

The spiritual pressure rose sharply, Bai Miao's ears were ringing, and Yan Li was bleeding from all seven orifices.

Pan Lingzhen had a splitting headache and said with difficulty:

"The level of this spiritual realm is approaching that of a third-tier spiritual realm. Even a first-tier card master would find it difficult to withstand the spiritual pressure within."

Such a high spiritual pressure environment had no effect on the pearl. Looking out the window, it was so frightened by the appearance of this spiritual realm that it couldn't speak.

Pinky nudged Bai Miao's head, making him look out the window. Bai Miao, who had finally begun to adjust to the spiritual pressure, was shaken to his core.

Countless mangled remains of demonic beasts were piled up in the spiritual realm, forming towering mounds of corpses.

Broken scales and claws, torn bodies, and rotting beast heads were carelessly discarded like trash.

The land was dark red and damp, with a dark, viscous liquid gurgling from the sunken cracks in the ground.

"Just how many modification experiments did the Lionheart Society conduct here?"

Bai Miao's face turned pale.

Killing is not cruelty. Even as the corpses of these monsters rotted, the fear and despair remained intense, piling up layer upon layer, making even the air murky.

Yan Li and Pan Lingzhen couldn't hold back and both opened the car windows to gag.

The stench from outside rushed into the car as if it were a tangible substance.

It's the smell of death.

In the very center of the spiritual realm stands a towering building that reaches into the clouds, its walls a stark white, its one-way transparent glass reflecting dazzling light.

Out of place in this blood-red world, yet perfectly integrated.

Without any guidance, the objective of this mission is crystal clear.

Shi Shanjun drove the armored vehicle forward, its large wheels rolling over the muddy, blood-stained ground, leaving two blood-soaked ruts.

One by one, bizarre, broken human corpses appeared by the roadside: human bodies with bird claws, human bodies with animal heads, and animal bodies with human heads.

Monsters and humans are being arranged and combined here.

The signs of battle around them indicated that they were killed by Bai Xianjun and his men.

Bai Miao covered Fen Yuan's eyes; such a scene was too cruel for the kitten.

Everything around him was shocking, and Bai Miao was speechless amidst the continuous shock.

Shi Shanjun remained silent, only pressing the accelerator harder and harder.

"Thump!"

A tremendous force lifted the front of the vehicle, and the massive armored vehicle tumbled due to inertia.
