It turns out I'm a second-generation demon.

Chapter 103 The Past of the Three No's (Part Two)

"This all started with the destruction of the Ancient God Cult. The Ancient God Cult was an organization with a long history, dating back to the late Ming Dynasty. The change of dynasties is the easiest time for cults to emerge. Although the original Ancient God Cult was classified as a cult, its original intention was to overthrow the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty."

Before Thunder Maiden could finish speaking, Li Xianyu interrupted, "The Heaven and Earth Society?"

My great-grandmother, who lived in the late Qing Dynasty and was more familiar with history, chimed in: "The Heaven and Earth Society was just one of many folk organizations. When foreign tribes invaded the Central Plains and the imperial government collapsed, there were many spontaneous resistance forces organized by ordinary people. The Ancient God Sect was one of them, but I've never heard of it. The original name of the organization should not have been the Ancient God Sect."

"The Ancient God Cult truly rose to prominence during the warlord era, when a supreme master emerged, skilled in assassination. Many warlord leaders died at his hands, and countless bloodline experts were assassinated. At that time, the Ancient God Cult was unparalleled in its power, overshadowing even the major clans, and even the Taoist and Buddhist sects. It was after that supreme master that the Ancient God Cult transformed into an assassination organization, accepting employees," Thunder War Maiden said. "Later, that supreme master mysteriously disappeared, and the Ancient God Cult's arrogance gradually declined. This infamous organization committed countless crimes; its only redeeming quality was that it never forgot its original purpose, and even at its most arrogant, it never worked for the Japanese."

"In the early days of Baoze Group, the boss had just made a name for himself and was repeatedly targeted for assassination by the Ancient God Cult. On one occasion, the assassin was Sanwu, who had once been a Class A assassin for the Ancient God Cult. The assassination failed unsurprisingly, but the boss did not kill Sanwu. Instead, he brought her back to the company and sent her to a training camp. At that time, the headquarters of the Bloodline Department was the current Equipment R&D Department. A year later, Baoze Group officially replaced the Taoist and Buddhist Association, and the first thing it did was to gather all employees to besiege the Ancient God Cult."

The weapons department of Baoze Group is located in the suburbs far from Shanghai.

A few years ago, this was the headquarters of the Baoze Bloodline Organization. The company bought a large development zone here to use as a training camp for its members. At that time, the Baoze Group was not as wealthy as it is now, and buying such a large development zone almost led to financial ruin.

The original Bloodline Department was built to the size of a military training camp, with senior staff enough to serve as instructors for a hundred people.

When Thunder War Maiden joined Baoze Group, she was just a junior employee. Her experience in the training camp played a crucial role in her breakthrough to senior employee in just a few years.

"The big boss personally led the team, spending three months to completely eradicate the Ancient God Cult. The remaining remnants of the Ancient God Cult are scattered throughout the country, hiding in various places. Sanwu and her pursuit team encountered the God of War in Inner Mongolia..."

Inner Mongolia!

The helicopter slowly approached the ground, the strong wind generated by the rotor bending the grass and blowing up a flurry of grass clippings.

Group 21 of Class 4, five members slid down the rope. Team leader Wang Xiaoping gave an OK sign to the sky, and the helicopter suddenly pulled up, turned around and flew away.

"According to intelligence, a group of remnants of the Ancient God Cult are mixed in with the herders ten kilometers away. They are trying to cross from Inner Mongolia to Outer Mongolia and then escape to Russian territory. These guys are very cunning; they deliberately blend in with the herders and will definitely take them hostage if necessary. The company's orders are to protect the hostages as much as possible, but the ultimate goal is to kill the remnants of the Ancient God Cult." Wang Xiaoping said in a deep voice, "Let's rest here for now and take action tonight. As usual, Sanwu will lead the charge, with Zheng Kaiyan, Su Tong, and Su Yin providing support, and I will provide sniper support from the rear."

Group 21 of Class 4 is the ace team among the new employees. They have repeatedly won battles in the mission to wipe out the Ancient God Cult, and they have also performed well in the subsequent pursuit missions. Any remnants of the Ancient God Cult that they have their eyes on have basically no chance of escaping.

All of this is because there is an S-class member in the elite team, a Class A assassin from the Ancient God Cult, codenamed: Three-Nothing. Nickname: Poker-faced Girl.

Among the five members of the team, Captain Wang Xiaoping is the weakest, but she scored full marks in strategy and command courses. Her special ability is that she can hear any sound within a radius of several hundred meters, making her the best candidate for captain.

Su Tong and Su Yin are twin siblings who look quite alike, but their personalities are completely different. The brother is a gentle and submissive type, while the sister is a strong and assertive type. The siblings awakened their powers at the same time, and their superpower is "decomposition." When they awakened, the floor of their house collapsed and was decomposed. Their parents treated them like monsters. Agents from Baoze Group found them and were willing to accept the two "monsters" and give their parents a large sum of hush money.

Zheng Kaiyan was tall and thin with a long face. Before his awakening, he was a street thug, aimless and idle, who would do petty theft but never commit any serious crimes. He was impulsive and loyal.

Zheng Kaiyan sat cross-legged on the grass, glanced at the ethereal girl not far away, and quietly took out a red heart-shaped jewelry box from her pocket. Inside was a pair of earrings. Every month after receiving her salary, the first thing Zheng Kaiyan did was buy jewelry—sometimes earrings, sometimes a necklace, sometimes a ring…

He maintained this habit for over a year, and the jewelry piled up, but he never gave it away.

"What did you buy this time? Let me see." Su Tong's hand reached out from behind him.

"Mind your own business, you brat." Zheng Kaiyan slapped him away and glared at him.

"If you like it, just give it to them. What's the use of keeping it in your heart? Unspoken affection is worthless. I know that all too well," Su Tong said, pursing his lips.

Zheng Kaiyan sighed, lay down on the grass, chewed on a blade of grass, and squinted at the azure sky.

The whole team knew he liked Sanwu, except for Sanwu herself. No, maybe she knew, but it didn't matter. This girl probably didn't understand what love was.

When she first arrived at the training camp, she silently followed behind the Minister of Law Enforcement, her expressionless face blank, like a delicate but soulless doll.

Wang Xiaoping was the first person to talk to Sanwu and become her friend. Sanwu had a habit of never showering with the other girls; she would always enter the public bathroom alone after everyone else had finished. One night, two sneaky guys tried to peek at Sanwu showering through the ventilation pipe, but before they could even get a chance to see her, Wang Xiaoping caught them red-handed.

The two guys who tried to steal a chicken ended up losing more than they gained and were given a disciplinary warning and placed on probation in the camp.

Zheng Kaiyan and Su Tong were Sanwu's second and third friends. Not long after she joined the training camp, some unpleasant rumors began to circulate in the class:

"I heard that the new girl has mental problems?"

"Yes, as long as you say you're willing to be friends with her, she'll do things for you; apparently, she'll do anything."

"Really? Is it that awesome?"

"What a pity, such a beautiful girl."

"It's only interesting if it's pretty."

The rumors first came from the female employees' dormitory. It was said that the girls who shared a dormitory with her used this method to order her to do chores, starting with cleaning and running errands, and later even having her wash their clothes and shoes.

Anyway, as long as you say "we're friends," the silly girl will excitedly do it.

Over time, other girls followed suit and started bossing Sanwu around.

By now, all the employees in the class know that Sanwu is a mentally challenged girl. Recalling when she was first brought to the training camp, this girl followed the Thunder King blankly, her expression wooden, like an emotionless doll.

After dinner, several men came to find Sanwu. "You want friends, right?"

Sanwu looked at them, her eyes as empty as glass, reflecting the men's figures, and she nodded.

"Anything is fine with you? Come with us to the warehouse, and we'll be your friends."

Sanwu went to the warehouse with them. After dinner, there was no one there, so no one could hear what they were doing.

The men led her into the warehouse, locked the door, and smiled.

"Hey, you said yourself that as long as we're friends, we can do anything." One man, still uneasy, probed, "For example..."

Sanwu tilted his head: "?"

They were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Haha, this silly girl doesn't even know this."

"Is she an idiot?"

"It's better to be a fool. You have no worries and can't even tell us what we did."

"That way, the instructors won't find out."

There are many beautiful women in the training camp, and girls who can compare to her are extremely rare. The mixed-race girl who is gentle in temperament but extremely fierce when fighting is one of them. That woman is good-tempered to everyone, but keeps her distance from everyone.

"Is what you're doing really okay? It's illegal, isn't it?" a voice came from the doorway.

The men's expressions changed drastically: "Who?"

The lock on the warehouse door was melted by the high temperature. A tall, thin man pushed the door open and casually flicked the molten iron in his hand. Beside him stood a handsome boy.

"If you don't want me to tell the instructors, then get out of here," the tall, thin man shouted.

The men left unwillingly.

The tall, thin man strode up to the man with no assets, looking at him with exasperation: "Are you stupid?"

With a blank, puzzled expression, he said, "They just want to be my friends."

The tall, thin man's forehead veins throbbed: "Bullshit, they're after your beauty."

"It doesn't mean anything, I don't understand."

"..." He took a deep breath: "If you really need friends, then let's be your friends."

"Want it?"

He rubbed his forehead: "No need, although I really wanted to say so."

Zheng Kaiyan wasn't some kind of champion of justice; he just couldn't stand seeing people bullying a mentally challenged girl.

Meddling in other people's business naturally comes at a price. In the following days, he and Su Tong were constantly beaten up in their dormitory, and they were bruised and battered every day during training. The instructors turned a blind eye.

Baoze Group never prohibited private fights; the Bloodline Department's original intention was to create a violent organization.

After several days of utter darkness, the slow-witted Sanwu belatedly realized the miserable state of his two friends. At the time, he only asked about the situation and didn't say much. But in the afternoon, Zheng Kaiyan heard some shocking news.

Sanwu dismantled a powerful small gang; more than a dozen people were rushed to the intensive care unit for emergency treatment.

That small gang were the people who bullied them, and they were also the ones who initially wanted to bully the nobody.

The incident caused quite a stir, and the entire training camp was talking about it. However, the final outcome was rather anticlimactic. Sanwu was neither crippled in his cultivation nor imprisoned; his punishment was merely being placed in solitary confinement for half a month.

The four accomplices were also punished with solitary confinement. At that time, Zheng Kaiyan tried to escape with Sanwu. Wang Xiaoping used her hearing to locate the sound and gave directions to everyone. Su Yin and Su Tong, the siblings, were the most destructive. If the instructors dared to rush up, they would dismantle their waistbands and underwear.

On the first night of confinement, the quiet and unassuming girl carved the word "friend" on the wall next to her bed, feeling a little happy.

......

"Brother Zheng, same old routine, one unit for each mission." Su Tong's voice pulled Zheng Kaiyan back from his memories.

"Why don't you find **** yourself?"

"If I were that powerful, would I still acknowledge you as my boss? Isn't fulfilling my underlings' requests my duty as the boss?"

"Alright, alright, I have a new anime here, a campus romance."

"Get lost, I don't want to read it. I want to read Evangelion fanfiction, I know you have it."

"Get out, I won't give it to you."

After discussing for a moment, the two each took a step back, looking at the fresh-faced, neighborly old Wang-like type.

With headphones on, lying on the grass, the two teenage boys began to immerse themselves in a wonderful world.

"Is it pretty?" someone asked them.

Upon hearing this sound, the happiness on the faces of the two boys gradually disappeared.

Enraged, Su Yin chased after her brother and Zheng Kaiyan, yelling, "You bastards, you showed my brother this kind of stuff again! I'm going to cut you both up today!"

As Zheng Kaiyan ran, she retorted, "Nonsense, it was your brother who begged me. Besides, this is a necessary relaxation exercise before the battle."

"Relax?" Su Yin was even angrier: "Does watching porn relax you?"

Zheng Kaiyan shrugged. It definitely had its uses; for example, Su Tong had already shaken off the tension of the mission and was fully immersed in the movie. But you can't reason with a woman, especially an enraged one.

Sanwu munched on a compressed biscuit, watching her teammates chase and curse with a blank expression. Wang Xiaoping could see a hint of joy flickering in her glassy eyes.

Ordinary people cannot discern the emotions of the three-no one from these subtle details.

Compared to a year ago, she is noticeably more lively and human.

I actually wrote more than 5,000 words yesterday, and by this morning I had written a total of 8,000 words, but I wasn't satisfied, so I deleted and rewrote them.
